Death spell 4. Vampire.

It has been one month since this blog started. (yay hooray:) That means it's the fourth week, and that means it's the fourth spell!!
Vampire!


Vampire. The one and only. Perhaps the most awesomeness spell in the history of lvl sixteen death spells. This spell is a hard spell to earn, since you're used to receiving better and better death spells just about every 3 lvls. After Banshee you have to wait six lvls to be able to learn Vampire. Now because sixteen is a mid low lvl, you lvl much faster, so it is really not all that bad.
The spell (as the card above states) does 350 damage to the opponent. And like the ghoul, it also heals half the damage dealt. I use the vampire spell for a variety of things in wizard1o1.
I use it to help out friends in just about all the worlds. So if i have a friend in Moo Shu fighting, then the vampire spell can greatly aid him. And like all spells, a basic deathblade boosts it a ton, and often gives it that extra edge that you need. And a death trap help you quite a lot as well.


I also use Vampire for myself. Lets say I am farming a boss in Marlybone, like Nails O'Leary. A Vampire spell with a deathblade (and my lvl 50 gear doesn't hurt either) Will severely injure, or kill him. But remember kids, a feint comes in handy when your fighting a boss with more then 562 health :)
Also, this spell helps me even in the higher worlds, unlike the other cards I have gone over. I could be fighting some random mob monster in Dragonspyre for a quest, and don't want to save up pips for a wraith or scarecrow. A feint, deathblade and Vampire is all you need. You could also improvise with like say, a curse and deathtrap, or balenceblade and hex. It also heals you (in some situations) all the damage you have taken.



So let's review. Good card for lower worlds. Good card for low mid worlds. Good card for high-ish worlds. And remember, with a couple of good traps and blades this card can do more damage then wraith :) (and that's sayin' something)

Death spell 3. Banshee.

The third week, the third spell, BANSHEE!

A little out of focus, and a bit small, but this picture suits the banshee well. There are so many different things a banshee could look like. (You know with being a mythological creature and stuff.) I think Kingsisle did a good job on that.Just look at the Kraken. There are soooo many different things that it looks like in different games and movies. It could look like a giant squid, or like in clash of the titans, a giant cloud of darkness. But in wizard101, i think it came out looking just right.

Now, about that Banshee.... It is a good solid damaging card, and does not take much pips. Although it does not heal you, it is a very good card for lower lvls, especially in Krock. Most of the mob monsters there have about 250 health. So the banshee(most of the time) will kill them in one shot.

But sometimes it will come just short of that.





So you need a death blade to finish him off.


Unlike the last couple cards, this card IS a pretty useless card in the higher lvls. It takes too many pips to be a good finishing move, is not damaging enough to use for a good damaging card in say, Moo Shu, so i find absolutely no purpose of this card in the higher lvls, except one. I keep one Banshee card in my deck for one reason, and one reason alone. To help out my friends in the lower lvl world's like Krock. Now don't get me wrong, Banshee is a great card if your in the lower lvls, but for those of us over lvl 30,I don't find much use for it.

Next post will be a good one, Vampire!

Death spell 2 Ghoul

Yes yes the ghoul spell is up next!


The ghoul spell. learn it at lvl 5, the first death steal spell you get. Most death wizards are very proud of their necromancer when reaching this lvl. This spell has been a life saver in Triton avenue. Remember that line of quests you get from Duncan grimwater? Where you have to kill like five rotting fodders, and five haunted minions? Again something really annoying!
Well, all you have to do is cast a ghoul card, and there is just enough damage to kill the dude.


Instead of using a bunch of dark sprite cards to take him down, in the higher lvl's again, most wizards thing it useless. But it works as a better finishing move then the dark sprite! Here are three reasons why:

1. It only costs one more pip and can do more then double damage.

2. It also heals you.

3.It's just plain cooler then the dark sprite!

Also it serves a purpose in all wizard city boss's. Say your a lvl 13 wizard or so, and you come to fight the harvest lord. All you do is cast a banshee. Then instead of waiting for more pips to cast another, and you can't cast a dark sprite because it would not do enough damage to kill him, you need to use the ghoul. it's just perfect for that situation.


Also, the ghoul in general is a very popular and common monster to see. as a pet,



A boss,


And in just about every world in the spiral, you can find a ghoul mob monster walking the streets.

from wizard city,

To moo shu, and more!


So that about raps up the ghoul post. Also, as you may have noticed, this is not the second spell you get as a death wizard. This is the second death spell you can learn from malorn ashthorn, or Dworgyn. Then after i finish up those i will go on to the rest of the death spells, like traps and blades, poison, and beguile.

Death Spell 1, Dark Sprite

Today we will be focusing on the first spell you ever get, the dark Sprite.

The dark sprite card is like your learners permit to the death school. It is your very first card you get, so in the higher lvl's you would think it useless. Most wizards think this with every schools first card. When the reality is, that It is one of your most important cards you have.

Like if your doing a side quest in unicorn way, as a higher lvl like me even, and you forget to look both ways before crossing the street and you get caught in a mob battle, instead of taking forever saving up pips for a vampire or wraith, you can use dark sprite to take him out fast.

Also good for finishing off hard mob's

And hard boss's as well.



It works much better with a simple deathblade spell, it will boost the damage just enough to finish him off. It really stinks when you use a finish off spell such as the dark sprite and he has like 2 health left, and all your cards left in your hand require way more pips then you got, it's really annoying! Just like this video!
