So You've Struck Gold in Wizard101: A Guide for the Accidental Scrooge McDuck
Ah, gold. The lifeblood of Spiral City, the glitter in Gabby's eyes, and the reason your backpack groans like a hippo after a buffet. But what to do with this shiny pile, friends? Fear not, fellow wizards, for I, Barnaby "Budget" Bilgewater, am here to guide you through the labyrinthine spending sprees of Wizard101!
| How To Spend Gold In Wizard101 |
Level 1: Gear Up, Buttercup!
First things first, let's ditch the potato robe and the broomstick held together by duct tape. Invest in some gear that doesn't make you look like a rejected Hogwarts costume reject. Remember, fashion is as important as fireballing a Cyclops in the face. Hit the bazaar – haggle, barter, heck, offer to teach Mr. Linblade a few card tricks for a discount! Soon, you'll be turning heads (and not just because of your three-foot-tall spider companion).
Tip: Break long posts into short reading sessions.![]()
Sub-heading: Accessorize Like a Champ!
Don't forget the bling, baby! A snazzy wand (unicorn horn, please), some fiery boots that leave scorch marks (because what's cooler than pyromancy?), and perhaps a hat so fabulous it makes Merlinshire jealous. Let your inner fashionista loose, like a phoenix trapped in a feather boa factory.
Level 2: Housing: From Hovel to Hogwart's Hall
Tired of sharing a dorm with a snoring Cyclops and a troll who hogs the shower? Splash some gold on your own slice of Spiral City! From cozy cottages to sky-high castles, the options are endless. Just be careful not to buy a haunted mansion – unless you're into spectral roommates who complain about the Wi-Fi.
QuickTip: Read with curiosity — ask ‘why’ often.![]()
Sub-heading: Gardening? More Like Glamazoning!
Turn your backyard into a botanical bonanza! Grow mystical flowers that glow like disco balls, rare trees that sprout enchanted bananas, and maybe even a carnivorous plant that eats homework (a wizard's ultimate dream!). Gardening's the new yoga – minus the spandex and questionable chanting.
Level 3: Pet Power!
QuickTip: Repetition signals what matters most.![]()
What's a wizard without a loyal (and slightly bitey) companion? Hatch some eggs, buy some snacks, and watch your little critter grow from fuzzy fluffball to fire-breathing dragon (or whatever weird species you stumble upon). Just remember, a pet is for life, not just until you find a cooler mount.
Sub-heading: The Mount Menagerie!
Speaking of mounts, ditch the broomstick and ride in style! Soar through the clouds on a dragon, gallop across the plains on a unicorn (please, for the love of Spiral City, not a donkey), or even cruise the Astral Sea on a giant goldfish (because why not?). Just don't ask where I got the goldfish saddle.
Tip: Reread sections you didn’t fully grasp.![]()
Bonus Level: Treat Yourself, You Magnificent Mage!
After all that spending, you deserve a break! Grab a cronut from the bakery (they're magical, I swear!), buy a lifetime supply of dragon tears (for potion-making, of course), or splurge on that rare spell that shoots rainbows out of your nose (yes, it's a real thing). Remember, gold is temporary, but memories (and rainbow sneezes) are forever.
So there you have it, folks! A comprehensive (sort of) guide to spending your gold in Wizard101. Just remember, spend wisely, spend extravagantly, and above all, spend it with a smile on your face (and maybe a dragon on your back). Now go forth, young wizards, and paint the Spiral City gold! (Figuratively, of course. Unless you have a paint cannon and a lot of nerve.)
