Crystal Ball of Knowledge
These are so useful for training skills. I remember the Old Haven zone had a small little area to the south that's still there and new characters could complete this for a crystal ball. Why hasn't that been fixed?
Getting one from the Ter Mur area is pretty deadly for a new character. And they have to know it's there. Those Toxic Sith move fast and have crazy poison. Then the shadow creatures are pretty difficult to deal with when they have such high HP pools. A couple of them have low HP pools, but they have crazy resistances.
I have mine, but it took a bit of effort. I'd imagine a new player wouldn't want to put in that effort and this item is pretty useful.

Fixing the area would probably be beneficial. Or just make the crystal ball redundant and make the prompt happen even if you don't have a crystal ball.
They're selling for like 70,000 on Legends which is obscene for a new player.

You're blowing this topic way out of proportion to cause an argument.
Example. UO Magery

It's also mentioned a few times on UO.com's own wiki.
Can't resist their BS.
A crystal ball is not going to help you for this skill, You just fish for a lot of hours until you reach 100 then you buy scrolls and fish some more.
The quest is still active and is no more difficult than it was when it was introduced.
Can probably buy the ingredients if you don't want to kill stuff.

You can do this quest over and over.
If someone wants to do the quest on LS, I can spare a few hundred.

The only thing wrong here is that I didn't try Doom. And I'd argue expecting a new player to go to Doom for it is still above and beyond.
However, I do appreciate that Victim did it.
That's what the devs have to design in every part of the game. Some one will think its too easy someone will think its too hard.
I was unaware that Chicken Lizards dropped Dragon Blood and I also still think that Doom is unrealistic as well, but I do appreciate Victim taking the effort and at least having a constructive argument against my feeling.
You and Frodo, however, are just trying to argue.
