Patches...

Would be a great name for a scarecrow, or perhaps a Harvest Lord. But Jack Hallow is good too. And as you probably already know, a Harvest Lord named Jack Hallow just happens to be one of the newest additions to Wizard101 that KingsIsle has gifted us with in their latest patch. Lots of other good things, undead and living, came with this new instalment, and you can find them listed on the main site. Even better, you could give Wizard101 Central a visit and see what people there think of it.

Patch notes aside, what is perhaps most interesting to me are some of the things that are not listed in the notes. Like the fact that players are now able to fight the Jade Oni more than once... which is great news if you happen to desire the storm blade that can only be achieved by defeating that sinister green elephant. By far my personal favorite undocumented change involves the graphical additions to Kagemoosha's Citrine Blade. Where before it was lacking the fanciful particles of the other sword-wands, it now boasts an impressive arsenal of colors that dazzle foes and distract young players. Keep it up KingsIsle!

And yes, I did buy a black cat.
