Mervyn said: work? it's a game. More gameplay time. It only takes an extra 5 mins. But yeah they should've fixed the lag, i haven't been on enough to check if it's still laggy. But if it hasn't made the lag worse, i don't see any reason to …

Mervyn said: Just out of interest, why is it bad if the spawn advances slower? Would you prefer to do More work for the same or less pay? That's why it's bad. and of course, The obvious reason.. the bug that was intended to be fixed with…

the only reasonable methods are "exploits" to complete the belfry anymore... the intended method takes more than the allotted time, nor is it worth that time for the average end result. King_Greg said: Wait... So the only part about the belfr…

Lynk said: Also, any offensive bushido parry mage (whether nerve striking, necro, or myst variant) you cannot fit ninjitsu, which leaves you very vulnerable in outnumbered situations. There is pretty significant template variety in PvP tod…

Pawain said: The chance is all I am after. Archers have horrible % hits without it. Agree with the statement above. Velocity hits lower damage than normal hits with a slayer. Hrmmm, How exactly did this Bug (that's been reported num…

Mervyn said: Again NOTHING to do with me, I was opposed to specific belfry changes. I will assume you're posting that in reference to what I said, since I quoted you.. But I assure you, I wasn't implying you (Mervyn) had anything to do w…

Mervyn said: Hard is good. I prefer to play on maximum difficulty, as do you, but you don’t realise it yet. I agree, hard is good. But, They're not making things hard, they're making things tedious and boring. I also prefer to play on ma…

Petra_Fyde said: Bug 2 is not a bug, it's user error. PoF is not meant to be used in place of repairs. You should repair the item until it reaches a point where it won't last long enough for a play session. Say 60/60? THEN you apply PoF takin…

it may also be a bug that you don't receive material bonuses enhancing Jewelry type items as well. Gargish Necklace/Amulets & Gargish Earrings, because of that, there's no reason to enhance such items, both Metal & Stone material bonuses…

You can't train magery on Mage Guild Master Npcs because of a bug with the Convert Mage Armor option, other mage NPC's in new Haven can train you to 40.0 though with a quest to accelerate skill gains until 50.0 It's listed in publish 100 fixes.NPC …

Mervyn said: I think Rock may be thinking about for PvM, I had to be reminded the other day by Mariah that some players PvM without PvPing, so the majority of subtle game mechanics and content wouldn’t be applicable to them. You're right …

Bram said: so if that works why the convoluted way you guys suggest? what am i missing here? is this for those who have no magery and cant cast a 2nd level spell? the "Magic Trap" spell is a one-time use, then you need to re-trap …

Rock said: @ CovenantX, if I gave the impression that the HPR was the only benefit of a Horbelist build, then I wasn't clear. The inherent HPR (22 if human) plus the ability to spell cast plus even Spirit Speak all contribute to the whole. …
-
if you build your suit with 100% damage increase (from items), the only benefit from Horrific Beast form is the +20 HPR, which isn't enough to keep you alive on its own against pretty much anything. the damage bonus doesn't go beyond 100% it provid…

Cookie said: The only 2 weakness I see are - which people are avoiding mentioning;Script key farming - they could be farmed in unlimited quantities by scripters.Sampires - They can then just go out and solo stuff non-stop from the script far…

Protection isn't -2 FC. Protection sets your FC cap to 0, Mysticism > Stoneform is -2 Fc, which you can over-cap, with +4 Fc to continue casting at 2/6 while in Stoneform. The description of the Protection within the Magery spellbook says tha…

Mervyn said: I can’t believe how lazy people have gotten, the keys were designed this way for a reason, they didn’t accidentally go to the trouble of putting a timer on and accidentally make them non vendorable. Whatever next? Make the champ…

Mervyn said: So Enchantress’ Cameo cannot be PoFed, this is the bug we are reporting, any more specific items? Specific items & places they originate. Shadowguard Artifacts:Wamaps bone Earrings (earrings) Ozymandias' Obi (Obi) Anon's …

Mervyn said: i tell you what is an issue for PoFing antique items, and that is resale. If you purchase from another player a damaged antique piece of equipment. You have no way of knowing if it has been PoFed once, twice, three times a lady. …

Remove the timer on "Key" items that are required to enter any encounter.

I think it was mentioned in a newsletter or perhaps it was in publish 99s notes that they were going to move the fix to a future publish because their "fix" was affecting certain pets that hadn't been exploited. The fix may be part of publish 100…

I think I'd trust @Mervyn to update the UO wiki, I don't always agree with his suggestions, but he seems to be knowledgeable as to how game mechanics work in UO. There's a lot of hidden information on many things so it involves extensive testing to …

Mervyn said: you mean you think they should not have increased brittle durability from 75 to 255? I think know they shouldn't have done it... hindsight makes it very clear it was the wrong decision. the end result should have been a …

Mervyn said: No way, here is how the system is supposed to work: guilds get together to obtain the keys and do the bosses together, that’s why they’re not vendorable and have a timer on the keys. here is what you want: to solo getting the ke…

yea, and you could easily do all the champs and a harrower (if no one raids) and there's a very high chance you won't even see any legendary items in the loot on any of them.

https://uo.com/2012/03/13/new-3rd-party-program-approved-for-uo-uo-mapper/ I'll just leave that there. @drcossack is referring to anything outside the list. Many players seem to be using them over the last several years because they go u…

I agree the loot should be of higher quality on the Harrower than anything else in the game... it takes the longest to "key" for than every other encounter in the game, as well as being more difficult to "farm" because of it being exclusive to Fel.…
