  • I'm not a fan of account-bound drop/rewards.   I'd rather the EJ drops be account bound (like they are) and the items that do not 'bind' to EJ account, shouldn't be available for EJ accounts to purchase from the reward vendor.  The rules need to be …
  • Hippo said: I'm in the minority here, for I welcome the BOT trains. The way the spawn mechanism is setup, it increases the rate and size of spawn based on human or BOT characters running about. I'm like a hyena, I clean up the spawn that the …
  • The amount of durability loss for warriors is higher for every item than pretty much any other template, obviously the more attacks coming your way the faster your items degrade, if you're a sampire with Parry/evade your armor/jewelry will degrade s…
  • Definitely not auto-follow, the leader (followed character) needs to walk more than 3 tiles for the auto-follow to react and move toward them, That's a script in the OP, probably the same script everyone banned for 'multi-boxing' is using.... as I …
  • I have never been hit by the anti-afk thing.  as I said in another thread a couple weeks ago, i didn't even think it was real until Kyronix basically verified its existence. I only ever use UOAassist or just default CCs when I play, though I haven'…
  • Grimbeard said: Inconsistency will be the only consistent thing you find in UO    Hey, that's my line!
  • Time is always money, However, some time is worth more money than other times.(sounds kinda weird to me, but it's true) I actually feel like the paragons are fair now, compared to previous events it's noticeably better. The most difficult paragons p…
  • I would expect this to be categorized as a bug, but this is UO, inconsistencies seem to be part of the game whether they should be or not.    -I wouldn't be surprised if this gets fixed at some point though.
  • Doesn't siege have a white (and dark) horse?  used to have a menu that had several options, I know monster ignore was popular back in the day, worked kinda like Honor, but it also prevented tamer's pets from attacking you too, for one hour after it …
  • Some potentially good news on the EJ abuse front, I'm looking forward to it. Though I gotta say, I was disappointed to read some of the "Bugs Updates" where things are listed as "Currently working as intended"... but clearly they should be corrected…
  • Pawain said: More info is needed from these players who are flagged but innocent.  I tried to get flagged by last night using 2 accounts for 2 hours, they both were not flagged.     I've had the same experience using UOA & 1 default CC …
  • Lord_Frodo said: Punkbuster was discussed EIGHT years before Steam was even thought about when UO/EA started talking about using it to curb all the cheating.  Get your facts straight.     My facts are straight,  The time in which these ev…

  • popps said: My opinion is, that when the Developers think out these Events, the obtainability of their Rewards and the drops' rate, should be thought out more considering the average players rather then the hard core, power gamers...     …

  • It is pretty boring... for me, I'd say it's a few things. 1) one of the first things I see during these events almost without fail, is a group of 8+ sampires steamrolling everything, clearly a bot rail. 2) Non-pvp zone event. 2) if you're not pl…

  • Yes, and UO Cartographer (another map program) was added as well at one point. Though players these days use whatever they want and nothing happens, despite the ToS violation(s).
  • Oreogl said: Skett said: Ya I just hope the scripters start selling the new items cheap    Right?  They’re out there doing Gods work  Oh yea, cause that happens....   Most of the cheap items sold are by players trying to sell th…
  • Pawain said: Can't get drops to buy the reward bokuto while they are getting bokutos in the dojo.  The imbuable bok reward item is a waste of points tbh, considering it's going to get "imbued" losing 10/255 durability each time splintering …
  • Hehe yea the GM auto-reply  UOA is a feature for crafting, has nothing to do with game-masters, I thought the same thing way back when I first saw it too though. There are client termination scripts that respond when a GM talks to the character by …
  • Interesting, I've not seen that before. How much insurance gold lost for taking 150+ deaths worth of damage in one hit?   -the G-heal precast is essential!
  • Covfefe said: Let us consider some things. You're looking for the healing buff to disappear on the 2d client to signify that bandages are complete. And there is not only no timer, but also i have seen some clients where the buffs will do a ni…
  • Covfefe said: If you auto use an apple or pot or auto do anything, there is normally a negative side to it. So the skilled players tend not to do it. But with applying bandages the negative only comes with attempting non automatic. the offic…
  • you can also apply a bandage to a target (not self) and run away, if you return and are close enough to the target when the bandage finishes, it'll heal/cure/stop bleeding/res (or attempt to) as well.  -I'm sure I'm rusty with it, as I haven't playe…
  • I find this annoying as well, but only because I use pack-damage pets at events, which often die and when they die, their bars disappear and I have to run off screen in order to pull them & res-pets & repeat...  UOA+CC & default Classi…
