Unforgiven Dead Gauntlet Guide | Wizard101

Wizard101 has released a new gauntlet in the Test Realm, which will presumably be a pack reward and purchasable item when the Test Realm goes live. This Avalon-themed gauntlet takes wizards to Ettinburgh, where they'll compete in a contest of champions for the "honor" of taking on an ancient being who awakens every 100 years. Here's how to defeat the Banrigh Sluagh and other enemy cheats inside the gauntlet!

Getting the Gauntlet

This gauntlet is crafted from a recipe sold by Lloyd FallingWater in the Shopping District. Right now in the Test Realm, you can purchase the reagents to craft it from Decius in the Commons. In the live realm, it's likely that a new pack will award the reagents, and that the gauntlet will be available for purchase on the Wizard101 website. 

The Sluagh Slugfest

Get ready for combat against some not-so-worthy opponents! This gauntlet comes in only three tiers - level 50, 100, and 150. The gauntlet will present the tier most suitable for the lowest-level wizard who enters on the sigil. We'll be covering the level 150 version of the gauntlet.

Fight #1: Loch & Key Knights

This battle is fun of puns, but not of cheats! It should be a straightforward first fight in the Sluagh Slugfest in the scenic lochs of Ettinburgh!

Fight #4: Woad Warriors

The final battle of the Sluagh Slugfest will determine the champion who will face the Banrigh Sluagh and attempt to return it to its prison. This should be another easy fight.

Fight #5: Banrigh Sluagh

Here's where things get interesting. This fight has a lot of cheats, but not all of them are working against you! The undead zombies claimed by the Banrigh Sluagh will cheat to help you! Although there are a lot of cheats and reading them seems complex, you can mostly ignore them and you'll be okay.

Unforgiven Dead5,280 health / Balance Rank 19 Elite
Unforgiven Dead5,280 health / Shadow Rank 19 Elite
Unforgiven Dead5,280 health / Star Rank 19 Elite

Cheats:
  • That zombie just slipped the wizard a card! - At the start of the first round, the Shadow zombie will interrupt to give each player a Donate Shadow Pip spell, a 0-pip card which one shadow pip (for the caster only).
  • The dead are arming the wizard! What a twist! - At the start of round 2, and every third round after (5, 8, 11...), the Balance zombie will interrupt to cast a +30% damage Hex himself and all his allies. 
  • The Banrigh Sluagh brings the curse of blight! - At the end of round 2, and every other round after (4, 6, 8...), the Banrigh Sluagh will interrupt to cast a -45% healing charm on all enemies. Sometimes it will cast a -20% damage charm instead.
  • All blades are made to rot. - At the beginning of round 3, and every third round after (6, 9, 12), the Banrigh Sluagh will interrupt to cast Enfeeble on one first wizard, removing all of their blades.
  • The dead escape their bonds and bless the living! - At the start of round 3, and every fourth(?) round after (7, 11, 15...), the Star zombie will interrupt to cast Magnify, an aura giving all wizards +20% damage.
  • Ach, that's gotta hurt, am I right? - At the start of round 4, and every fourth round after, the Banrigh Sluagh will interrupt to cast Supernova, dealing nearly 2000 damage and destroying the damage aura on every wizard.
  • Other notes: There are no cheats for Feints or arriving late. These enemies cast a lot of negative damage charms but most cheats can be ignored. The boss is Stun Immune.

Congratulations on completing the Unforgiven Dead Gauntlet! You'll earn the Unforgiven Too badge upon completion. Don't forget to collect the Throne of Scones housing item in the castle after the fight!

Secret Boss: Grounds-Creeper Willie

There's a secret boss, and he's actually the toughest fight in the gauntlet. Right before entering the castle, take the path around to the right, where you'll find the Grounds-Creeper Willie fight. This boss is inaccessible until you complete the fourth battle with the Woad Warriors.

Grounds-Creeper Willie12,425 health / Myth Rank 20 Boss

Cheats:
  • Grounds-Creeper Willie is immune to all damage.
  • Ach! I cannae be beaten, only banished! - At the end of the first turn, Grounds-Creeper Willie will give each player a Banish! spell. This is a Myth spell which costs 7 pips and 2 shadow pips. It wins you the fight, but only has 5% accuracy.
  • Oh no, ye found me one weakness: showing up late. - If a player enters the battle late, Grounds-Creeper Willie will interrupt to give them a Banish! spell. Note that there is a glitch where entering on a round where he casts his Mana Burn will cause the Mana Burn to be cast twice.
  • Time for a controlled Mana Burn -  At the end of every third round (3, 6, 9...), Grounds-Creeper Willie will cast Mana Burn on every wizard, removing two power pips and two shadow pips(?).
  • Ach! Get 'em, Bitey! - If you attack Grounds-Creeper Willie, he will interrupt to cast Orthrus.
  • Hide behind yer shields then! - If a wizard casts a shield, Grounds-Creeper Willie will interrupt to cast an accuracy buff charm on all wizards. 
  • Oh, wizard need a heal? Maybe a blankie too? - If a wizard casts a heal, Grounds-Creeper Willie will interrupt to give the wizard a Donate Shadow Pip spell.
  • Other notes: Grounds-Creeper Willie has 50% pierce. He can cast Medusa, so consider packing Stun Block.

Gauntlet Drops

The gauntlet drops a number of fairly rare housing items, including Avalon paintings and new autumnal bushes and trees which will presumably be part of the pack that drops the reagents for the gauntlet. There are also Ettin house guests and Avalon bobbleheads! The final boss can drop some notable jewels as well, including the Pain-Giver Opal.
