Thank you for the information, looks like there's about to be some fun on NL.

Grimbeard · August 26

Very anti NL only pets..

You’re welcome! Absolutely!

Pawain · August 26

I can answer my question with the transfer kit.

Lord_Nythrax · August 26

Just to be clear, the shard where this is taking place is due to be wiped in a few months, correct?

Iniquity · August 26

Will we be able to use the ethereal transcendence orb on the frozen steed? Would potentially be nice to know for the new vanity pets as well, if they are in statue form.

Grimbeard · August 26

These appear to be nl only pets ??

Perhaps I misunderstood, but weren't the elemental horses in the photo going to be tamed in the main production? (Origin, Europe, Atlantic, etc...)

Those could be the mounts for the bosses there, like the bosses have mounts in Mistas.
I don't know if they can be tamed on NL.

They are in this video somewhere, Ill also de disappointed if not on Prodo.

Transcript here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1VSXqC_2_buQ89ClXPEE7-EF6ZfTCMjqN/view

Here is the transcript for that part:

Onifrik:

[0:21:52] Yes, in addition to the standard draft horse that

we’ve been wanting to add and finally have. Well played, Old

Rusty. We’re also adding four elemental horses: An earth

horse, obviously to represent the earth. We’ve got an electrical

horse that we are linking to air. We have a lava horse, which

we are linking to fire. And then the last one is the ice horse,

which we are linking to water. That way we’ve got an actual

five set expansion for draft horses in the game so they are

meatier, they’re heavier, they have a bigger impact visually.

Five set, That counts the Phy damage one on Prodo. So, makes me think also on Prodo since NL does not have the Clydesdale.

@Community Manager may be able to tell us if they will be available on Prodo.

Grimbeard · August 26

Nl pets are like PS you can do something you'd rather not or over pay someone else

Pawain · August 26

Here is something about NL that mentions one of the horses?

Frozen Steed

Due to a conflict on production servers, in order for the Frozen Steed to be transferable the hue needs to be adjusted.,
With Publish 3, all Frozen Steeds and Frozen Steed Statues will automatically update to a new hue

Also 1 slot NL pets can not be trained. Darn, was gonna bring some hell hounds.

Parallax · August 27

Just to assuage any concerns over the Elemental Clydesdales featured in the promotional graphic, these are just the mounts that the Harbinger bosses are riding. The Elemental Clydesdales will not be obtainable from New Legacy in this event.

Thank you for clarifying.

It seems that the developers have organised an event for NL.

If anyone plays NL and wants to share images of the event, that would be great, so we can see what they've done, out of curiosity.

Nythrax, yes, the shard is going to be starting a new season, so this means the shard will “reset” as per earlier discussions.

Pawain, I cannot say at this time.

Victim_Of_Siege · August 27

I was thinking today as I finished my JPN NL Crafter finally, what will happen to all the resources in our resource pack? will it be gone or put into commodity deeds when we get to our destination shard. Apologies if this was answered somewhere.

Are you guys ever going to add anything to the real shards besides ToT reskins ever again? You guys left us to starve for half a decade while you developed a crippleware version of UO with embarrassingly ugly portraits tacked on, and now it looks like the fifteen people who play it are the only ones you care about.

Pawain · August 27

Ya they should make content for the 15 of us that play UO.

This is the first long lasting event that players have been active until the end.

The Clydesdale spawns are pretty empty. But they last forever.

I doubt you have ever made content that people play for months @Lord_Nythrax. The devs of UO have been doing it for many years. I would hate to see what you call content.

You post this kind of worthless dev bootlicking in response to literally everything, what is it really supposed to still mean at this point? I can pull up posts of you arguing with bug reports about how everything is actually totally intended, until a dev pops in and promises to fix it. I can find posts of you complaining about how anyone who needs anything more than the broken-down CC is just entitled, until the devs come along and promise to revamp it.

These guys have never made a terrible mistake that you didn't sit around and cheer for like some kind of idiot. Sit down, shut up, and stop talking like you're a real person.

Pawain · August 28

So, were those "bugs" fixed, I rest my case about Mervyns so called bugs. They don't fix intended outcomes. Sorry I am smart enough to distinguish between bugs and normal gameplay. Maybe some day you will understand UO game mechanics.

Oh, come on! We finally get a tameable Skeletal Dragon pet, and they're not going to make it available for the Prodo Shards

. I went through all the trouble of getting the first or 2nd Ossidrial to exist on NL.

While the Ossidrial may be particularly strong for NL, he's not OP compared to 5 slot Prodo Pets, even if the Ossidrial itself could gain 1 extra slot from slot leveling. He's 7,028 Intensity at 4 slots, so would be 8,528 at 5 slots, and 1,600 points of that intensity is tied up in his Magery+Poisoning (which would become useless if you swap his Magic). Clydesdales end up with higher Intensity than a Ossidrial, and they're also ridable with no wasted Specials (not to mention the "Last Stand" ability).

The Ossidrial has ability bloat, Magery+Poisoning+Conductive Blast+Lightning Force, so even if you could get rid of the Magery/Poisoning by swapping to Chiv, it'd still have Lightning Force eating up Mana, detracting from the use of more powerful abilities. It also has 700 INT, which would prevent it from hitting 700 STR, making it deal less overall damage.

A 120 Chiv+AI 100% Energy Crimson/Platinum Drake would out DPS a 5 slot Ossidrial on Prodo.

One of the best things about the Ossidrial on NL, is how tanky they are (which Prodo pets can compete against with Healing, Feint, or Life Leech). Not just because of their Resists, but also because unlike the Ossein Ram or Moldering Ursine, Ossidrials actually have Greater Undead Immunities, making them completely immune to Bleed and Poison status (even Lvl 5 Lethal).

I see no reason to exclude the Ossidrial from the list of transferrable pets.

The good news is that you can still create a toon on NL until September 2 so you can check it out if you want. I was kind of curious about the event myself and with the Prod event ending next week (not sure when they will restart another), I figured it would be a good bridge so I returned to NL to try to outfit my abandoned toons lol.

Once your toon is created, you can still advance him etc even after Sep 2. Honestly you can probably be up and running (ready to participate in the event) within a few days. They only thing that will be tough as a tamer is to have a beefy pet to use (you need 7 days to bond AND you need a lot of time to get bestiary's or a lot of RNG luck). The good news is that a GM mage throwing EVs has worked for me so far in getting loot rights so I'm thinking I'll be able to participate just fine (GM mage takes probably a day or 2).

Thank you. i am basically taking the crate and making it my loot bag and looting everything in my house/bank into it. if it wont go in, i drop it on the ground. Makes it easy.

I like how you're such a demented bootlicker that you can't even remember everyone you argue about bugs with. No, actually I was thinking of this post, where some dude posted about issues with the mini-map complete with video, and you stood there arguing with him like an idiot until Kyronix stepped in and let him know it was due to be fixed.

When I rubbed it in your face, you pled that you couldn't tell that the box with the map in it was supposed to be the map, and then acted like "we" did something helpful. Just pathetic. Total cringelord bootlicker.

Mariah · August 28

Please stop the personal attacks and insults.

Victim_Of_Siege · August 28

Something i have noticed on Spellbooks. if they have even one spell in them, you cannot transfer them. If it is empty you can transfer. A Vanquishing enhancd book, as well as the Shadowed tome say transferable if empty.

loop · 9:13AM

Believe that’s actually a bug per the Discord - you can’t transfer them. But you might confirm over there.

Howdy, Stranger!
