The Spring Test Realm 2021 is finally out! It’s time to dive into some of the juiciest parts of the updates- the Skeleton Key bosses! The first of these is King Borr, found in the Savarstaad Pass in Grizzleheim.
Earlier this week, we covered the surprising news that Media and Games Invest, whose chief subsidiary is Gamigo and which is run by Gamigo’s CEO, had bought out Wizard101 and Pirate101 studio KingsIsle Entertainment for a total of $126M with an additional potential $84M in earnouts for the owners. Charlie talks about how he won the recently concluded Wizard101 Ice Deckathalon event, including his strategy and deck setup. Reply on Twitter 035701250.
King Borr’s Location
King Borr can be found at the spot where I am currently standing in this picture. His sigil is very close to the Teleporter Hub, as well as the passage to Northguard.
Borr is similar to Krampus, in a way. Just like in the Krampusgarten, you have the option to choose the difficulty of the duel. Regardless of the difficulty, you will still be facing this King, and his faithful minion Grendelynn.

- King Borr must be defeated before Grendelynn can be defeated, so hit as hard as you can.
- Beguiling the minion the turn of your hit will also disable the intercept aspect of Grendelynn.
Drops
All of the items from the Grizzleheim Lore Pack are available from Borr. In particular, Spellements for Ratatoskr’s Spin, Hammer of Thor, and Grendel’s Amend drop here aplenty, even from the Wooden Key Version. This boss is even better than Loremaster for farming these particular spells, since the spellements can be traded over.
Will you be farming King Borr?
