Not sure about that. Eggs close together in two fairly close locations no longer spawn but egg in between them does. That’s not normal. Someone walking from one location to the other would pick up the middle egg. Maybe, the eggs just don’t spaw…

I check vendor search all the time for things I can use or resell. One of the things I always search are veteran rewards. Shard transfer shields come up all the time. I don’t know if the bone armor above was a drop or a reward but no way I would p…

Common practice is to lead the para a long way away, invis. to break the lock, and leave it and head back to the spawn where there is stuff you can kill. Few players actually loot anything at these kinds of events. The invasion event started my fir…

Has always surprised me that they contain the same quality junk at these events as their counterparts. But you always have a chance of getting a chest you can’t open filled with similar junk if you have room for it in your pack. That’s not to say t…

Yes always verify you are getting what you think and don’t ever pay 10 million for a rune to the vendor’s location. Yes, have seen one priced that way. It has been on the vendor a long time now. Maybe it’s only one million. What a deal.
-
Thanks. Yes, I was talking about the ones in the dungeons at these kinds of evens. Don’t have that much experience with the others.
-
Don’t know if they prioritize , but at least some paras, like greater dragons, shadow wyrms and similar can interact with more than one aggressor during a fight and often switch targets during a fight. Most, if not all, of their nonpara counterpoin…

Do you assume they are? There is a post from a couple of years ago from a player that bought one of these, I believe for 35 million, a few years ago that expected it would work.
-
Yes I feel the same way about it. It clearly states they are shard bound, yet the asking price suggests something that costs that much should work. Players with that much gold should know enough about the game to steer clear of them.
-
See them all the time on my shard for 26 million.

If you have it in a macro that happens to me too. Macro works fine for months and then becomes unreliable. Have to cast over and over until it works or I just give up and use the book. Also have had that happen when using a rune book. Everything …

If you are referring to casting in Destard there seems to be a casting hesitation there now that was not there after the change that was made after about two days in. When I cast a spell, after it is cast there is a fairly long delay, maybe a secon…

Maybe end this thread. The thinking underlying this pain in the neck has not changed so it is not going to. It is there to prevent a player from making a quick character change in the heat of battle that will provide that player with an unfair adv…

My macro does not target dead things. But only when conditions are ideal does it target what’ is closest to me. As things get hotter it often goes from one target to the next and it does no always start with what is closest. When the game starts t…

Actually this thread has a discussion that will be quite useful to newer players. We all know about going invisible to break the lock but newer players don’t have a clue. I started out as a mage and learned about invis early on but only mages can…

Also, if you are being chased anywhere in UO and recall out, if you recall back into the area, whatever was chasing you before makes a beeline for you moving twice as fast as it was before. Use invis. all the time to break the lock. Works like a c…

Always wondered what the arena was for. Thanks.

I use mostly the mage mastery. Summons might last longer but have not noticed much of of difference in the summons being dispelled. Death Ray while holding a slayer book is very effective.

Spent a lot of time in New Haven. First character especially because had no idea where else to go to find killable stuff. Pretty sure you can grand master all fighting skills in New Haven. Maybe enlarge area to Trammel on Fel. surface areas to mak…

Sorry to see these accounts are being abused. They, I believe, are intended to bring older players back into the game, and considering the number of returning players I meet think they are successful in that respect. As a newer player I used one o…

I have problems with this too. Had to target any specific player or monster when the action gets hot. Sometimes in EC I use the control shift keys to display all the names and try to click-on the name.
-
Mages fight differently from most other characters. I use energy vortex a lot to keep monsters busy while I kill them using direct damage spells or death ray. If you invis, the monster usually will forget about you on concentrate on the summons op…
-
I buy blessed stuff all the time and use it with no problem at all. It stays with me when I die. Some equipment used to have another players name on it and I could not wear that but I think the game may have changed that rule and don’t remember an…

Maybe it is at capacity. If you have been playing awhile it is easy to max out your house.
-
Yea that is a good one. Have to my glasses from now on.
-
At least easy for a mage to kill with a dinosaur slayer. On shot on normal one maybe three on the paras or a couple of more.
-
Kaz the fire dungeon event did work that way with different monsters getting precedence from one day to the next. Don’t think that is true in Destard except maybe for the shadow wyrms or maybe they just spawn at a lower rate than everything else. S…

Targeting not working at all for me last couple of days. Started experiencing casting delays two days ago. Never know what to expect in Destard. Some days it works fine and others it’s unplayable due to delays and other things not working. Beginn…

I don’t have a problem with following someone around in a dungeon. I did it quite often during Yukio’s event in the mine. But Estel was not talking about that. She was talking about having four programmed bots following her around. I think a lot…

Sorry to ask but what is a gear change cool down? I don’t change gear that often but the macros I have for that usually work fine.
