Fun fact :D

Morgan Lafitte's sister is Sarah Steele. Makes sense but I didn't know that. O:

Who do you want to follow you? (Pirate101)

Well by that I mean like on Wizard101, your pet follows you. So on Pirate101 you can have a companion follow you, your pet, or no one.

 Well if you want a companion to follow you, here's what you do: Your "firstmate" always follows you if you don't change it. You think your first mate is your first companion? Well it is but until you get Bonnie Anne, you can change your first mate to her. See how Subodai is my First mate? Well I can drag Bonnie Anne over and make her my first mate.
See? When you get more companions, it is less likely to have a certain one in battle unless they are your first mate, who is with you 100%, or if they are in the top row. Even if they are near towards the end, you may still have a chance of having them in battle.
 
So what if you want your pet as a follower?
Well follow these steps if ye want ye pet as a follower ;)
Go to the gold gear then click on options.
Next, go to advanced gameplay options and look at what is underlined above.
 
When you click the arrow, it will say pet instead of Firstmate. If that is who you want as a follower, then press ok. If you want no one to follow you, the just click the arrow again and press ok.
 
 
Ta da! You have your pet as a follower! Hope this helped. :)

Pics!

So apparently Pirate101 is working on colors for pets and mounts so that's why it doesn't show any color changing things.

Pirate101 Countdown ;)

11 Days until October 1st! The day Pirate101 Officially comes out. :)
Here's something you may want to know when you play, battling.

Battling is ENTIRELY different. Your "deck" is now a game board set up. During a battle, you can control yourself and companions. If another person joins, you cannot control their companions. At the bottom of the screen when you are planning your attack, there is a bar at the bottom of the battle screen. That will have your special powers. You can get your powers at certain levels just like you can on Wizard101 with spells. You also can get training points so you can get powers at other schools. Privateers have healing spells so I suggest getting your first non-school power there.

    So powers give you a boost with attacks. How do you actually attack?  Well it's simple. All you have to do is look at who you are using, then click on the target you want to attack. Then do that with your companions and at the bottom right hand corner there is the button that says 'done' and then you are simply done. I must say, battling on Pirate101 is quite fun. :)
Also, you can only use a specific power once per battle so just keep that in mind.

Did you know?

....You can make a fansite and submit it to Pirate101?!?
But unfortunatly, you have to have "purchased" the website or upgraded it so they know you are commited to Pirate101. Blogspot doesn't count because it's free. Maybe if your site gets popular enough, like about 5,000 visitors, you might just become official!

New Update

New update, Pirate101 added some new stuff to the tutorial. And also they wiped your characters you had before too. -.-
Well it was going to happen anyways! More updates at www.pirate101.com

Contests/Prizes

Hey guys! I've thought about what I should do for contests and prizes for them. Since I do not have a credit card to buy crowns/membership it's hard to get them. I promise if I can get someone to help or if I win crowns, I will tell you and that will be a prize!

So some comtest ideas:

 Draw a picture of anything you like about Pirate101 

  Twitter Trivia *I'm going to make an Official Skull Island News Twitter page soon* 
 
  True or False (kinda like trivia)
  
   Short Stories about characters or character in Pirate101

**If you have any contest ideas please tell me! Email me ideas at rachaelcooke101@hotmail.com**

Prizes I have come up with (that are pretty corny lol)
  
  Ask me any questions about Pirate101 and I will give you pics and everything I can.
   Tell me what you want me to post on this page. Promos for your page or contest is acceptable too.
    I can draw you or edit a photo of your favorite chracter with your name on it or something.
   I can show you all the "tricks" or powers you learn from a specific teacher.

     So you've seen my ideas. Pretty lame so I want to see if you have any ideas. XD
Email: rachaelcooke101@hotmail.com with the subject contest/prize ideas

Thanks a million!

Mounts

Pics coming soon for posts 

 
So you want to know what mounts Pirate101 has so far?


Buffaloon: a buffalo that has wings and kind of looks like a balloon.

Lobster: Looks like Snappy Lobster from Wizard101 but you can dye it different colors. :)

Manta Ray: Looks like the Ray from Wizard101 but you guessed it, you can dye it!

Horse: Well it looks like the Starlight pony's mane and then the Black Stallion. And yes, you can dye it.

Batacooda: You have never seen this one before. The Batacooda has a fish body and very sharp teeth. It also has wings too. :)

Crocodile: This looks exactly like the Crocodile from Wizard101 but you can dye it different colors. :3

Thunderous Kirin (fastest mount): This mount looks like the Kirin from Wizard101 and yes, you can dye it yet again! :D


Flying Sea Turtle: This mount is a sea turtle but a little different than Wizard101's. It also has balloons attached to it's fins so it can fly. This mount can not be dyed. :(

Clockwork Wings: These are the same wings on Wizard101. They are the new wings. Forget the name lol but they are mechanical. Can't be dyed. O;

**Hope you know which one you want. :)**

Housing (important fact)

So you'd think this wouldn't be very helpful but on a new game, it REALLY is.So here's a question, How do you put down housing items? Go to the top of the screen when you are in your house. Next click on the backpack icon then go down to "place decorations"
There you have it! This may seem unimportant but what if you had no idea about this and you could't find a housing icon.. you'd be pretty lost unless you were smart enough (unlike me) to find it on your own. Lol

companions

You get companions during your quests. Mostly main but if you want all the companions you can get, well just look at some side quest rewards. If they have a picture of an animal in the bottom left corner, that's a companion!
 
   So what's a first companion you can get? Well here are what they are: Subdodai which is a horse companion, Egg Shen which is a goose companion, a Crane companion (I will look up names soon!), a Bull Ronin, and Kan Po which is a goat monk companion.

    So are you able to train these cool companions? Of course! You have training points for companions (and yourself). They are two seperate point systems so don't worry about that. Companion training points can be earned by doing quests. Let me tell you they are SO much easier to get than regular training points! If you use them all up, you can buy training point totems. They're expensive and I hope P101 makes it so you get more than one training point for each purchase.

   At certain levels companions can get quests to make them more powerful. Like Bonnie Anne becomes a Sharp Shooter and when you train her, you get to pick new epics! Epic talents are stuff like Riptose or Return Fire. They come in handy a lot. Most companions get their first quest (not sure if they get more than one quest. Comment if you know!) at teen lvls (13-19).

    What are some companions you can get? Well I have a lvl 30 Swashbuckler at the moment and these are some of the companions I have: Sarah Steele (a mouse), Bonnie Anne (a fox), Old Scratch (a skeleton), Froggo Villa (surprisingly a salamander and not a frog lol), Nurse Quinn (medicine chicken), Ratbeard (rat commander), Milo Greytale (rat), Subdodai (correct spelling? Probably not. Horse companion). Those are just some examples of companions! Have fun training companions when P101 comes live. :)

Facts About P101 Pets

So there's companions and pets. You are able to buy pets while companions are earned (with the exception of the crown shop companions). Pets can be bought with gold or crowns. So far in game there is a Buffaloon, Chameleon, Scorpian, Sky Snake, and Spider. There will probably be more when the game launches!
     You can dye your pet too. Wide variety of colors. I suggest you dye your pet the same colors of your flag, so if someone else has the same pet, you know which is yours.
   In battle, you have a 50% chance of having your pet with you! (When equipped and they fight on their own) They can be pretty helpful sometimes. Even though their attacks are weak, don't underestimate a best friend. ;)
