IF I've understood right (and I admit it's a big IF) This shard will give newer players a way to build a viable character, and a year to do it, without the difficulties they currently face on normal shards. Hard to get gear, out of control economy e…

I do the same as @Dino I have magery rather than ninjitsu on my thief. I find I can work very efficiently in Exodus that way, and I can use Earth elementals for running interference when I steal from monsters for balms and lotions. The description …

TimSt said: I really could use jewels with cooking or carpentry on them. I waste a lot of raw fish steaks making sushi platters. Or equivalents to the +30/+60 Ancient Hammers that you get from the Blacksmith BOD reward. A +60 Ancient Frying …

UO has always been a game of checks, balances and choices. Cookie's template, being reliant on those items, means he has had to make sacrifices elsewhere. As an example, my thief, who does not rely on items, has a high amount of HPR, so that I can a…

When I trained my cu sidhe I trained healing to cap before I added chiv, knowing there would be a problem. However after it died a few times and I was unable to recover the lost points I was advised that in addition to getting it disco'd I would nee…

My thief has Hiding, stealth, stealing, snooping, lockpick detect hidden and magery. She doesn't have ninjitsu and she doesn't have remove trap. She doesn't do pvp, although she has a couple of times joined VvV to steal sigils. Mostly I use her to s…

The books are, in fact, useful to those fishers that are new to the quests. My preference would be that they be removed from the loot table when the fisherman progressed from orders requiring 10 of each fish to orders requiring 15 of each fish.

@popps Weapons is where crafting really comes into the mix. All my fighting characters carry crafted weapons. What do I do with loot weapons? I unravel them to provide the resources I need to imbue the weapons I want. Unravelling is the only source …

While I can't offer any insight to the pet ball problem, I do have a different solution to the pet in a throng situation, when it's a mount. I pre-cast invis, run next to the pet and drop the invis on myself, then mount the pet. You can then run ou…

@Tarragon_Slayer At first I found your comments a little confusing, I don't have the things you are describing in my keep. But then I realised @Pawain does. My Europa keep has changed a little since I posted last. As with all things, they evolve. …

Interesting you should pick that particular example. Singing axe is a very useful item for a carpenter who wants to make instruments, especially for a carpenter on Siege. Those minor arties can be imbued, I have crafted and imbued silver etched mac…

Trismegistos said: Norry said: Yeah, instead of lowering drop rates, why not force the skill to be used. If there is a character hidden, monsters will slowly stop spawning in that section, but will spawn 20 to 40 tiles further away.Its…

Something I learned playing in Ilshenar, and only remembered when I'd died a few times in Deceit. Don't run past paragons, teleport instead. My pet and I have managed to kill a few paragon lich lords, poison eles and rams since I remembered this lit…

shiny said: any public Davies' Locker on Europa? Yes, at RAA guild shop. Give a shout out in general chat for a rune or a gate to there, it's rare that there isn't someone around able to help with that.

I don't know for sure, but I've a feeling you are laying blame in the wrong place. Instead you should be blaming the banks, who take payments from accounts in the middle of the night.

My crafters are NOT mules. I find the term offensive and insulting, because by your definition I, and people like me, are RL mules. Housewives and househusbands who 'craft' for their families but do not sell. Please stop using it.

Leaving aside any comments on trying to turn our playtime into work To my mind the main difference between crafted items and loot is 'control'. Many of my characters wear mixed suits of looted and imbued armour, because with imbuing I have the cont…

Before the change to stealth in there my husband and a group of friends would work 'shifts' in Fel Blackthorns on Drachenfels, standing by the AFK melee fighters stealing their drops as they got them.

If I were to plan a water based champ I would set it in a circular area west of Jhelom. I would make the waves of spawn in concentric circles rather than each in the same area, like a 'wall' that must be broken through and destroyed to get to the n…

Which people? When there was that general glitch I had some missing, but they're not missing this time, and no one else has posted that their's are?

@Seth someone has imposed hawkwinds on a parrot. I have copied a parrot to test center after reading your earlier post. Yours if I can manage to meet up with you there.

Merus said: @ Kyronix Please consider something a little different for the legacy guildstone... perhaps make it marble or jade (like the character statues). Original guildstones are a unique part of UO history. It would be really nice if …

I'm with Pawain on this one, and mystified. Why on earth would you carry a book of scrolls around with you? I can see no reason for it. Even if you were transporting them from house to bank you'd recall.

To divert, slightly, by far the quickest and easiest way to get Felucca treasure maps is by doing the hag's quest in Fel. Allow me to tell you about my Friday. I did a hag's quest which got me a Hoard map.When I dug it up I got 2 frost dragons. I g…

I believe the better way to buy power scrolls on many shards is through general chat. Many players don't put them on vendors, or put them on at silly prices, because they want them to go to players on their shard, not bought up and shipped to Atlant…

Before the animal training was brought in players were posting that the power scroll market was dead, no one was buying them. I personally thought that was something of an exaggeration. Animal training revived that supposedly flagging market. For …

Am I the only one who remembers that one of the biggest complaints before the loot re-vamp was that it was next to impossible to get a piece where the mods went together in any way at all?

1. Player vendors - higher prices are the reason for the introduction of auction safes and commission vendors. The gold cap would be less of a problem if the vendor owner moved the gold to his bank instead of leaving it to pile up on the vendor. 2. …

For the record @Picus I have never bought items from the store to sell. I just know people who have, and know people who would like to buy the items for gp, but aren't sure what is a fair price to pay. I don't play for gold and couldn't care less w…
