Honestly, between this pack, the Winter Witch pack, and the Fairy Kei pack, we’ve been eating GOOD when it comes to amazing looking gear recently! My only small complaint is that most of the gear from packs recently hasn’t been dyeable. But what are your thoughts? Are you going to be opening the Dark Jester Pack or is this one a pass?
I agree, i wish the gear was dyeable. Also i wish some of the stats were actually worth it. Ill pass on this one but not because its ugly or anything. Just not for me.
Yeah, I was kind of hoping we’d get a new gear template instead of another copy paste of existing stats, but at least you can get the stats for free from the boss rematches. I’m glad it’s not too pay to win.
IDK why they don't make crowns gear dyable! So much you can't use cause you can't match the colors. Whatever happened to that color wheel? They add so many worthless features * *cough Bazaar* * * *cough emote wheel* * instead of making something players actually want.
Yeah it’s been rough. Apparently part of the maintenance was supposed to fix some of the bazaar issues, but I think it may take time to fully confirm if the bugs are gone or not. Unfortunately the bazaar delay when selling items will remain.
@@Zaepha If it's like the bank/shared bank it won't be fixed until 2026/27. However it's never going to be the same. I feel for newer players cause they'll never be able to craft jewels and so much more. I used to sell Steel, Titanium, Brass cause I'm lucky to have the jewel seeds. Getting from questing will take years. RIP Bazaar.
when i first saw the mount in the drop list, i was a little disappointed. i do like the walking animation. its cool for sure, i wish the transition from standing to walking was just a little bit smoother
THANK YOU FOR THIS DETAILED PACK OPENING & ALTERNATIVE GEAR STAT ACQUISITION SOURCES! The gear looks dope as hell and just think of the robe as a corset ;) @2:10
5:51 I KNOW that gasp. I know that gasp on a personal level. It's the gasp where you've been hoping for something amazing from the packs and you don't expect a whole lot from them cuz they mostly give you junk, and then you get that ONE thing and you lose it. The deep gasp of excitement and satisfaction. Classic and relatable. 13:38 also has that same satisfaction energy.
Man all of these cool packs, thanks for the showcase Zaepha! As someone who doesnt play anymore due to lack of friends 😒 this is the only way i consume Wiz content 😤❤
Although this new pack is super awesome, I think the upcoming leaks for new bundles and gear is VERY encouraging! I can't wait to see what 2025 brings for our favorite 101 games!
The new gear doesn’t look bad, but I’ll be honest here the mounts seem to be lacking a lot to me, the shadow effects while standing look cool but the transition from standing to instantly into ball is kinda odd. And the standing animation for the mount is kinda nothing, it’s sorta like a version of the batsworm mount 😅 an idea I suggested for this mount would be to make it like a speedster mount where you are dashing with this shadow like effect and the standing animation being ready to dash while this shadow effect is active.
just finished vid what a cool pack ngl, great video too and the gold/black blue dress analogy was funny lmao question for the rematches, are they meant for max lvls only? or for example if a lvl 100 did the morganthe rematch, would they only get the max umbra gear or does it come in other levels too?
I believe you can first access the crafting recipes for the second arc boss rematches once you get the badge “child of light and shadow” for defeating Morganthe in Khrysalis. Then you can farm the boss rematches, which I’m pretty sure only drop the 170 version of the Umbra Queen gear, BUT you also get a reagent drop called “shadow webbing” that can be used at the NPC rematch vendor to craft level 100 versions of the gear, so technically you can get either level 170 or level 100 gear from the rematches.
I see no need to praise devs for literally stealing the look from Arc 3, likely those devs moved on to another game. Good to know you can farm it for free, but knowing KI the drop rates suck.
Zaepha, I have quite a few wizards all in progress still. Highest one I have is life lvl 52. When it comes to opening packs do you suggest that I wait until I hit a certain level before splurging on packs. For example, opening packs on my death wizard is only going to be level 30 stats and gear. Rather than the level 170 stats you get since you're on that level.
The only pack I normally recommend to lower levels is the Professor’s hoard pack because it has a guarantee of at least one gear drop per pack and the stats can often be better than the farmed gear you get through at least level 100, especially for the hats and boots. However, you definitely don’t need to open packs at any point to successfully quest through all the PVE content, so it’s going to be down to your personal preference or if you like the cosmetics of certain packs for stitching. The professors hoard pack can also often be gotten for free from events like the spiral showcase and others just for earning event points, so that’s a nice alternative way to get a few without buying crowns. If you do decide to open packs, just keep in mind that at lower levels, you’ll probably very quickly out level any gear you buy, so it’s often not worth wasting the money for pack gear that you’ll only use for a few hours tops.
the mount sucks bro. the inky aura IS cool, but suddenly just "now u're an orb. that's it" like okay? unless I stand still the inky stuff underneath just doesn't exist ? lol
As a newer player... is this gear good? I'm lvl 121 in Mirage atm and I looked at the gear and its weaker than my lvl 100 darkmoor gear. Is it worth it for the gear at lvl 170, or is this literally just cosmetic?
For PVE at level 170 you can 100% just use the Reaver/ Avatar gear you can farm from bosses in Wallaru and Selenopolis and be perfectly fine stat wise. Some people like to tweak their builds to use the wastelander/ jester robes shown in this video, but you definitely don’t have to spend the money to get really good stats at max level, so I’d say only go for this if you have a very specific build in mind that you want or because you like the cosmetics for stitching purposes.
@@Zaepha TBH, I was concerned that if I got some of this gear, it'd be trash stats, so I'm happy that at the least the gear is usable should I end up with some. The Winterbane gear I got from a pack a long time ago was pretty trash compared to Winter Tusk gear, so I was concerned the same was true of this stuff.
Does the gear scale to ur level? I just picked up the game and I don’t wanna buy the packs for the gear but I have to be lvl 170z. (I’m level 12) am I able to wear it as long as it’s from my school ?

I'd like this pack so much more if the bazaar wasn't broken for the past 2 months

i wish the wing mounts also had the wands displayed while idle/moving
Yes! That’s another great candidate for showing the wands while equipped!
God I love that we have folks making videos about a game that's and oldie and a goldie!! Rock on and best wishes!!!

Saw the mount, went to go open pack and got it from the first one GG

The devs have been cooking with all the new gear recently, the new stitches I'm seeing are fabulous 🤩
They’ve honestly had several winners in a row! Very excited to see what else is in the works.

The mount is so cool. Genuinely they’re cooking so hard!!!!
Right? I gotta give credit where credit is due!
Now I want them to do something to the other shadow creatures.
That could be so cool! I’d definitely be down to see more shadow creature themed gear and mounts!
Man all of these cool packs, thanks for the showcase Zaepha! As someone who doesnt play anymore due to lack of friends 😒 this is the only way i consume Wiz content 😤❤
@@hallowtako you could join my group?
KI out did it's self on that mount.

The mount kinda reminds me of how the death eaters dash/move from Harry Potter, really cool
I love the hat and wands, boots as well. I wish it was dyeable so I can wear the robe from fairy pack with the hat from this pack 😂
Mount looks so cool, wish they’d add mount stitching because my bronto isn’t coming off😂
love the look
personally, I'm happy that none of my wizards fit the school requirements, but maybe if I max my death, I can
the pets remind me of the heartless from kingdom hearts!
Mounts remind me of the Death Eaters from Harry Potter

@1:47 Doctors hate this one weight loss trick, find out why
😭😂
The mount looks so cool 😍 I want it so bad
It’s definitely one of my new favs! It looks so cool when you’re zooming around!
Looks like a heartless from kingdom hearts!
Skinny legend 😤
Everyone else see all the gold skeleton keys
I’m hoarding them 😉

The pet is my new favorite I got the blue one only. I got one perm mount and I did not get any of the stained glass jester windows 😒
:(
Can you ask them if they can make a Storm Wyvern pet? I feel like they would listen to you.

just bought 30 packs and couldnt get a robe to save my life
i just want one of the perm mounts
🔥🔥🔥
The best pve gear by far is the novas pack gear set. Level 170
Does the gear scale to ur level? I just picked up the game and I don’t wanna buy the packs for the gear but I have to be lvl 170z. (I’m level 12) am I able to wear it as long as it’s from my school ?
gear is always to the level of the wiz so wait until you level up
Spent 10k crowns - got nothing
Oh boy, I can't wait to drain next month's income! 😭
can someone gift me a pack
