  • Last two extended events, my Mystic Thrower got tons of drops. With LRC suit and SC & area damage glaive i was able to toss RC's and Heal curses, poison and damage with Cleansing Winds. 
  • I had to buy drops/rewards on other shards that I play, but on Atlantic I did very well. The BOTs were annoying at first, but then I realized the size an fast respawn was due to the increase of players (BOTs) at Winter Spur.  I switched from archer …
  • Optimus said: Sparks does not count as a mod or have imbue weight on Storm Lord's Steel, allowing for 6 mod, high weight imbued items. Is this intended? If you imbue it, won't that have a negative affect on Durability and PoF repairs? If …
  • 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 BOTs that they eith…
  • Petra_Fyde said: I have 2 characters who do ok at the event, a swordswoman and an archer. I play each for one hour, while under the influence of the statue. This gives me around 20 - 25 drops per day between them. It's not uber, but I have ju…
  • Larisa said: Yeah I was testing the *I'm not a power gamer, don't have a lot of time to play, just want to be casual and kill small stuff and not get stressed out* kind of person. Most people testing are in the I GOTTA GET IT ALL!! Category l…
  • LilyGrace said: Would it be possible to add a feature where someone doing the lion's share of the work, getting these trees to pop, gets additional rewards? Like, X amount of bods dropped on the elf, a special reward lands in your pack. Somet…
  • Named skels, Grim pumpkins and Butchers live on ATL...
  • I only use Dread Pirates to train pets. My Orc Ships I buy on VS then transfer to other shards that I pirate on. What shard are you on? I may have some Orc Ship parts in a sea chest. My two man crew consists of a mystic thrower (orc slayer glaive w/…
  • Look forward to update:) I have a ton of bubbling cauldrons and XMas tree rewards in storage.
  • I hope there's a rare hue. I can't say it's a joy checking off-shard alt characters but it makes it worthwhile if there's a chance of a rare gift.
  • Kaz said: I would love to see a 1 time use only dye for the lore books, hues for all past and future events. So we can clearly see which lore book is from which event.  So far the deceit event was the only one with a lore book that has a uniq…
  • A one handed fan with Balakai staff mods for mages, a mempo or headpiece (Kabuki mask or Kabuto) with Balron/bone glove type mods, or a jin-baori with some small mod that is farm from game changing. 
  • I enjoyed - and appreciated - the Bunny Bash you all did on Baja at the start of the last Easter Egg event. You guys gave away thorns to everyone that showed up and we all had a great time bashing 3-4 bunnies at a time! I was able to get a "nest egg…
  • Grimbeard said: A central shopping shard would solve many issues  That makes sense! Maybe this Bazaar shard could sell gypsy wagons or booths in UO Store or sell as a gold sink on NPC vendor.
  • Pawain said: New Ship themed deco items would be nice.  Water tiles for homes would be popular. @ Kyronix I agree! There should be a new event themed Bucs Pirate reward added during the Special Spring and or Fall event scycle.
  • Skett said: The Ludo winners reward Is actually kinda of a cool reward its animated like the gargoyle hour glass .   Skett said: The Ludo winners reward Is actually kinda of a cool reward its animated like the gargoyle hour glass…
  • firec said: For me, as a returning player that will never see the ability to transfer characters, it ended up being a bit of a nothing-burger. Which in itself is a problem. Events, especially big events are something that should be looked for…
  • TONS of people cutting into the queues. I was 4th person in line for boat race (I lined up 2 hours before festival started) so won the ship in a bottle prize   Had no idea what I was doing in puzlze tile thing but somehow ran 3 chars through to get …
  • Great idea to shorten & simplify the Ludo game this year! I played it last year and missed most of the festival standing in line and and in the game, but our team did win the silver 25th anni dice prize
  • username said: Pawain said: A lot of red white and Blue deco, so I would speculate the 30th or the 7th.  Hope its not the 7th, Ill be in Cozumel so can't make it. Also out of town the 23rd... Whoops, the oceania EM had spoiled thi…
  • Pawain said: Nice, Oh well Have fun all!    Ill be here in one of these chairs drinking Pina Colatas. Daughter taking us there for my 60th Birthday.   Sweet gift! Enjoy  
  • I hope Origin's Tailors Guild a "Summer Solstice Collection" similar to last year's 25th Anniversay couture I have a closet full of 25th anni commemorative t-shirts!
  • Larisa said: Yeah that game is back...not going anywhere near it.  That's the only one that's the same as the 25th. Yes there is a bar and grill but I seriously doubt the tickets and food/drink items will be the same as the 25th, that would b…
  • keven2002 said: Update: I was running around today on a few shards just looking to see if anything was happening for the Summer Solstice and ran into Mesanna. She was nice enough to give me some details on the Summer Solstice. Sounded like th…
  • Whoops, sorry  - a typo - I meant 2017 vice 2007.  I do have a couple of full sets but lately been dropping them in for the miniscule 50 cleanup points to preserve bank space on non playing shards.
  • Just had a tour of the two villages and I am quite impressed with the different house designs!
  • Great event, indeed! Logging in during Luck hour  with two chars in 3800-4040 suits ensured enough eggs to outfit most very alt on Home Shard with spell book, yukio, quiver but I was also able to transfer the surplus eggs to the shards where I didn'…
  • IF I were a conspiracy nut (there are far too many in real life), the three day hiatus would have given those in the know time to unload some mukluks at crazy prices. But those that did make small fortune I'm sure did so just following supply-and-de…
