Been 12 years or so
Just saying hi, its been awhile. usually I leave and come back every year or two but this time its been I have no idea..I guess last thing i was doing was farming Swoop, which looks to be nerfed now.
i am on Legends, which is pretty desolate.
I was wondering if Sampire was still a good char to make? I think my Provo Mage is not that well suited any more, and I would like this time to really do content that I never tried, like doom and other dungeons, and try to get good to get good loot drops.
Is a tamer good for this? or is sampire a better bet, or something different completely?
I'll probably make a tamer or sampire on Atlantic.

Well there was one or two bosses I heard eat pets? So I thought they might have nerfed tamers too
Giant beetles are now 1 slot when you tame them and can be worked up to a 5 slot pet.
I think every tamer has their own favorite pet.
Mine would be the giant beetle, because I can carry loot in its pack.
but to answer your question...
some people use tamers, because of the pet leveling.
but sampires are also popular.
however, the armor and weapons are very expensive, especially on Atlantic.
i mean, grouping is fun, but to me UO was so different from other games, and that difference kept beign changed to be like everyone else. They started making places not be able to recall in and out of, they started forcing group play, nerfing soloers, making dungeons specifically need more people, and in the end, people still found ways to create special solo builds..its just the devs fighting against the inevitable, when they should be embracing solo play especially as their numbers dwindle.
But that is neither here nor there, I just want to play the content i missed. I want to kill epic bosses and little bosses and explore the dungeons and cool spots and do whatever the heck the "roof" is.
Blackthorn's Captains take half damage from pets, and have a 20% chance or so to inflict triple damage to a pet (like what Skele Drags and Serpentine Dragons have).
My guild on Atlantic (UWF) hosts guild hunts every day (except Tuesday) at 9:00 PM EST for an hour, where we frequently hunt Peerlesses, Champs (Tram based), other Bosses, and harder dungeons. Largest, most active guild in UO. I went from being a solo player on Napa, to hunting in a group on Atlantic with UWF, major refreshing change.
All is well, UO is best game ever and getting better everyday...
I have to say UWF seems to be a fine guild. They let me tag along more than once on their peerless hunts even though i am not in their guild. That deserves respect and honorable mention.
You have much better odds of rebuilding faster on Atlantic than you do on lesser populated shards. Once established a transfer token will be pocket change to take you to your retirement home.
