Ship spawn frequency

Is it me or has the spawn rate gone up?

    Plunder Beacons also up?  I went yesterday and in my well trodden well known area it was about the same if that.  I killed several orc ships and in about an hour i only saw one Beacon.  Was disappointed, I know it takes time but I only had that hour to use.

    Actually i like the ships than beacon. It depends on what you are going after though. I hope they can extend the ship refresh longer 
    If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

    I could point out a collation between nothing happening in game and the amount of complaints posted here....

    I'd agree... restless people become even more cranky without something to focus on :D

    That's too Baaa-aaa-aaaad.

    Never be afraid to challenge the status quo

    My main house is right in the middle of a sheep spawning location. I got a lot of wool as a result.

    I usually hunt Plunder Beacons on a dead shard, then bring back the goodies to Atlantic. Trying to farm Plunder Beacons (or Pirate/Merchant Ships, or Fishmonger quests) on Atlantic itself is extremely frustrating, the seas are completely clogged with player ships, and therefore makes Ship Tracking pretty useless.

    They need to add more areas for high seas.

    There should be static shipping lanes between every port with random ships spawning..

    Considering High Seas itself is major expansion x 2.0, it has so little spawning area. 

    But I thought every character that damages the beacon will get the mythical cargo.

    The beacon will "give" up to 8 mythical chests (if more then 8 are hitting the beacon, someone gets "left out"). You do NOT have to be partied to get cargo
    If you sell UO items for R.L. $$$, you need to quit playing UO , and get a BETTER R.L. JOB!

    Thanks for the info, then Atlantic probably need more sea spawn area
