UPDATE NOTES
Steam users will now pre-download world data files
KROKOTOPIA REVAMP
It’s like a brand new Krokotopia for you to explore! Much like the Wizard City revamp, Krokotopia has also been given a graphical update to modernize the look and sound of this classic area. Familiar creatures and monsters have also been given an updated look and up to date animations. Be sure to explore and take in the views as you continue your Wizarding adventure!
Selenopolis
The Spiral is woven together by leylines, the invisible branches of Bartleby which are saturated in the core elementals of magic; and in some places, through sheer chance, those leylines interweave in unique ways, creating unusual conjunctions of mystical energy. The Blended Grove in Krokotopia is one such place, home to a single Spell Tree with seven trunks, with minds and personalities all their own. It is said this is where the Order of the Fang learned to create Balance Magic and scholars have wondered… what else could be discovered there?
This is, in part, why the city of Selenopolis was built by the mysterious Khonsu. Here, he defended his Mander Lunamaries from the invasive Tuts and maintained his own separate society under the perpetual light of the Moon.
Arc 2 Prologue
You will first find Selenopolis in a new chain of quests triggered after the completion of the Dragonspyre storyline. These quests include formal tutorials for Archmastery and the Magic Wheel, and will smooth the narrative transition into Celestia. From there, Selenopolis and the Blended Grove are your hub for Magic Weaving
Your Story Continues
Additionally, those who have completed Wallaru will find themselves immersed in a deeper conspiracy hidden in this dark city. Many of your old friends from other worlds and other arcs have been kidnapped and brought here. But by whom? And for what reason? The former question, you’ll learn, has many answers, while the latter is as simple as can be: vengeance.
MAGIC WEAVING
In the Krokotopian city of Selenopolis, you can journey to the Blended Grove and learn about how to weave your school of magic with another by Magic Weaving!
Magic Weaving is a new activity where you select a second school to be your “Weaving School,” and you can then rank up and earn rewards for your unique school combination! You do this by going on quests given to you by your new Spell Tree Trainer in the Blended Grove.
To begin Magic Weaving, you must first defeat Malistaire in Dragonspyre, then Ambrose will send you back to classes to learn about Archmastery, the Magic Wheel, and then Magic Weaving! If you’ve already completed Dragonspyre, Ambrose will see you in his office to fill you in.
Weaving School Selection
Once you’ve completed the tutorials, you’ll be able to select your Weaving School by talking to the tree of your choice. Afterwards, you can talk to the same tree to begin your first quest!
Note: You cannot choose the tree of your primary school.
You can switch your Weaving School at any time, and you’ll still keep your progress for all previous Weaving, but all rewards you’ve earned will be deactivated. If you’ve learned a spell, that will be untrained, and your training points will be refunded. If you’ve gotten a jewel, you will no longer be able to equip it.
Weaving Progression
After you select your Weaving School, you’ll notice your title is updated on your character page to match the unique weaving type of the combination between your primary school and weaving school.
Also on the character page, there’s a new tab for Magic Weaving. This is where your progression will be shown. Weaving progression, like crafting, is badge based. Your Weaving Rank increases after completing Weaving Quests, and this page will show your Weaving Rank for all 6 of your potential Weaving Schools.
Weaving Quests
While you’re going through your Weaving Quests, you may notice a few different mechanics than you’re used to...
Badge Quest Goals
To earn your Weaving Ranks, you must complete some badges around the spiral. Some badges require you to defeat some enemies, others require you to fish, and some require you to help others. These badges are unique in that you cannot make progress on these badges unless you are either on the quest or have completed it.
Mainline Helper Badges
One of these badges to obtain will require you to help some friends. To earn progress, you must be in an Adventure Party Group or a Guild Group with a wizard questing in the specified worlds. You will earn badge progress for each mainline quest that your group members complete.
Optional Quest Goals
It’s very important that you read the “Tome of Weaving” when your quest tells you to do so, as this will tell you what tasks you need to complete and how many. Sometimes you’ll only need to complete 3 of the 5 tasks you’re given. If you ever forget what you should be doing, don’t forget you can always click the “Review Dialogue” button to re-read your tasks.
Have __ Defeat Goals
Some quests will require you to play the support role as you assist your accompanying companion to defeat your enemies. The quest goal will not advance until the companion is the one to deal the final damage to the opponent.
Weaving Rewards
As you’re ranking up, you’ll earn different rewards depending on the school you chose to Weave with. You will always gain one of these 3 reward types...
Spell - This will be a spell, like any normal trained spell, that will cost a training point and it will also help you with both your primary and weaving schools.
This will be a spell, like any normal trained spell, that will cost a training point and it will also help you with both your primary and weaving schools.
Equippable - This could be in the form of a Jewel, Gear piece, Pet, Mount, or anything else you can equip to your character.
Fusion Formula - Described below, this will allow you to combine spells from your two schools into a new, powerful spell that is unique to your weaving combination.
All Spells from Magic Weaving have uniquely colored borders that show your school's color in the top left half of the card, and your weaving school's color on the bottom right. Remember, the school icon in the top right corner of the spell is what determines the pips and stats used when casting the spell.
SPELL FUSION
Spell Fusion is a new combat system where every card has the potential to be combined with another spell to make powerful new spells! Here’s how it works...
Fusion Formulas
In order to use Spell Fusion, you must first learn a Fusion Formula. A Fusion Formula defines two spells that, when fused together, result in a new spell! You can learn a Fusion Formula the same way you would learn a spell.The trainer shows you the Fusion Formula’s result as well as the two spells that are required to create it. You must train a Fusion Formula before you are able to use the combination in combat.
Adding Fusion Spells to Your Deck
To use a Spell Fusion, you simply need to add at least one copy of both component spells into your deck. The number of copies you’re allowed to fuse is only limited by the copies of the components. Additionally, once you’ve learned at least one Fusion Formula, there is a new tab that will allow you to view which ones you have trained. From here, you can click on the resulting spell to add one of each component spell into your spell deck.
Spell Fusion in Combat
Once you’re in combat, your spells will start to glow in different ways if they’re involved in a Fusion Formula you have learned.
No Glow – This means your deck does not have the other spell necessary for this Fusion.
Yellow Glow – This means your deck has both necessary spells, and the highlighted spell can be used in a Fusion. The other spell for this Fusion is not in your hand yet.
Green Glow – This means both spells of your Fusion Formula are in your hand and you’re ready to Fuse!
To Fuse two spells, you simply select one spell, then the other spell. After the first spell is selected, the other spell will be the only spell highlighted, but from this point, you can also choose to cast the selected spell using its normal targeting if you have enough pips to cast it. You can select the Fusion component spells in either order.
If one of the component spells typically casts after a single click, like an AOE, it will require an additional click only if there’s a Fusible spell in hand. Otherwise, it functions normally.
Once spells are Fused, they are both removed from your hand and your discard pile. The Fused spell then acts as any normal spell would. You can enchant it or even use it in another Fusion. If you discard or cast the Fused spell, it will be added to your discard pile, which can later be reshuffled.
Fusion Component Spell Rules
- Treasure Cards can NOT be used in Fusion
- Any tier of any spellement path can be used in Fusion
- Any pet or equipment spells that share the same name as the component spell can be used in Fusion
Once you learn your first Fusion Formula, you can visit Diego the Duelmaster in Unicorn Way and he will guide you through fusing spells!
NEW SPELLS AND SPELL CHANGES
New Selenopolis Spells
With Selenopolis, each school gets a brand new single-target spell for 7 pips that is themed with the gods of Egypt. These spells are earned through all new spell quests! Spellements for these spells will also be given as you quest through Selenopolis.
In addition, each school gets 2 new Fusion Formulas that use the Selenopolis spells, when combined with hanging effect, creates a new hit and utility spell! See the Spell Fusion section for more information.

TUTORIALS
In the wake of your victory against Malistaire, it seems you’ll finally have the time to return to your studies on the foundations of magic! We have two important classes for you to attend.
The first, taught by Diego the Duelmaster, will teach you the methods of Archmastery to channel your energy into Pips of a specific school! You’ll learn how to use School Pips to cast more powerful spells from other schools and meet more specific spell costs.
The second explores the complex relationship between types of magic and how the tactics of each school support and conflict in a pattern called the Magic Wheel. This class is taught on-site at the Blended Grove by guest lecturer Raafat the Teacher, and includes a tour of the Grove. These quests include an introduction to combat cheats, formal tutorials for Archmastery and the Magic Wheel.
If you’ve already moved on to exploring Celestia, you can pay a visit to Headmaster Ambrose and he’ll be happy to put you on the class schedule!
NEW BEASTMOON FORMS
New Beastmoon forms are here, each bringing unique abilities and strategies to the arena!
Storm Fairy
Prepare for the powerhouse that is the Storm Fairy Beast Form. She has new mechanics that punish Pacified players and others that buff herself and teammates in new ways.
Myth Elf
Myth Elf is a force to be reckoned with. He has spells that work well with Fire teammates, dealing massive amounts of over time damage and increasing damage even more with traps.
Life Ninja Pig
The Life Ninja Pig heals in unique ways and strongly synergizes with Fire’s Damage Over Time spells. This form is also a strong punisher of Myth’s traps.
Fire Krokomummy
With molten hot skin, this Fire Krokomummy manipulates Damage Over Time effects like none other. Pair this Krok with a Life form for maximum damage.
Balance Colossus
Balance Colossus pairs two effects that typically don’t last long when used together, DOTs and Traps. However, he gets around this by being the first Beastmoon Form to add deferred damage over time spells. Don’t let him lure you into a false sense of security though, he can detonate like no other form.
