On lower population shards with just a few players doing the spawns all the good stuff is in reach of newer players. Would assume that anyway. On my shard I have no problem getting enough eggs for what I wanted. Did not get lots of stuff but got …

Yes that and poisoning.

Sorry not much interested in pvp. Know this style of play interests a lot of players and some games offer only this style of play. Kyronix was wrong if he implied to you that only pvp type games where the only multiplayer games available. I enjoy…

My understanding of hardcore mode is to survive with minimal resources and skills. A player that limited their development to the grandmaster level and using only equipment looted from corpses could survive in this game and do ok in most, if not al…

Have too agree with John on this one. It’s not a weakness to prefer to play against the computer. It’s a choice. Not all players are interested in playing against other players. Players that design their toons to for the sole purpose of defeating…

Don’t really have the time commitment to play NL and not sure BS has the staff to develop it anymore. This game has a lot to offer as is, they just need to learn how to better offer it to players and to improve their commitment to players that get …

They are gone when the second spawn starts. In the previous spawn at Wind the first two spawns generated eggs but that is not the case with this one. Even if you are the only one there it is just the first spawn.

This player beware stuff happens all the time in this game. Guessing it loses more players than it gains but what happened to you just verifies the anti player culture of this game. Seen discussions like this one just to often.

If they are brightly colored eggs they are worth 250 cleanup points. Otherwise was anyone else in the field with you?

You can grow or buy thorns. Think you need to plant snake plants. If you are working up skills, you can go to the New Haven mine and kill earth elementals and get fertile dirt you can use to make snake plants grow faster. Think you will probably h…

Might increase the weight you can carry with a greater strength potion, and your dexterity with another potion. There is also an invisibility potion but you already have hiding.

Thanks for responding quickly. Had read the posts but really did not understand most of what had been said. Also, thanks Lord_Frodo for the gaming definition of a mob. Good example of words having different meanings in different environments, Wo…

Overall like this event. Players can go to the main event or hunt rabbits to get eggs. Even though thorns sell for a fairly high price, 10 for 200k to 300k on my shard, and only give up eggs to players about 50% of the time based on my experience,…
-
Yes, agree. Not so many players anymore. Log on, go to site and find no one there, but find based on creatures being there from second and third spawns that someone has picked up the 10 eggs and left. Mostly first spawn staff milling around so I …
-
GL eggs going for 7 mil per. But expect price will go down in a week or so.
-
Overall not too bad of an event. The boots are not to hard to get and have better than average mods for boots, and no durability. They should sell pretty well for a good price in the future. Would like to see a few more eggs available to players …
-
Just a note a lot of things are harder to find on Great Lakes than a few years ago. Don’t know if that means fewer players or what. But have noticed in some areas, like for example recipes and special hard to get in game items, there is just not t…

Prices on the pink, transcendence?, books are absurdly high on my shard. All you can do is check vendor search, when it is working, every time you log in for the books and the tokens. That’s what I did early on when I did not have the gold to pay …
-
I have encountered this too. Thought it just might be UO’s bot program targeting innocent players again. If I talk, things seem to start working properly. But could also be the town limits. Just seems strange to me that every thing is working f…

Would rather play than watch UO played by someone else. UO is confusing to watch when it’s being played by someone else. Most streamers I have watched don’t do a good job of explaining what is going on and what they are doing. It can be done in a…

The shake is really hard on my older eyes. Stopped doing the void because of it. Think I read in another discussion with the same complaint that there is a way to turn it off. I can take it for awhile before I start getting confused and disorient…

The quiver I price fairly often and it has always been between about 125 to 179 million on GL. Think it was around 150 ingots give or take 25 at the last event. Believe the wand of warding and lantern were around 30 ingots each so would expect th…

Oreogl usually the price on items you paid a ton for does not change much during these events. Have not done this one yet so won’t say anything else. Did not know it had started.

See Vagabond’s post on AmberWitch’s recent discussion (and also in a post above this one) for the official explanation. It’s routine maintenance. Wish I could say something positive about this game’s operation.
-
Sorry I don’t watch streamers or twitchers or for that matter even know what they are. Thought we were talking about YouTube videos. Maybe for the benefit of at least one older player can you explain what we are talking about. Would like to know w…

UO does not really market itself to new players or provide them with any reason to play the game once they are here. New players without mentors or friends that can provide them with the resources and knowledge they need to play the game simply lea…

Don’t the talismans with crafting skills exceptional and bonus percentages more or less do the same thing luck does? Just a different luck system for crafters.

EC’s built in macro system makes it fairly easy to write simple straight forward macros. Not sure if you can write really complex macros with it. Macro writing can become a frustrating experience very quickly. Think for more complex macros older p…

Thanks Kevin! Would swear I checked that out before and that they were not worth anything, but just rechecked and discovered they are worth 10 points apiece! Will look into the BODs. Already have some in the bank I collected when I was training f…

Screw the player seems to be a mantra of this game. Maybe a change to prevent players from taking advantage of the apples or just another bug. Game seems screwed up to night.
