  • please bilbo, urban dictionary?   your own name would get you a ban if you posted the definition.
  • really no reason to anymore.  a trained nightmare is more powerful than a bane or dread.  banes are not very good anyways becuase they are vulneralble to dragon slayer.  thats why they never compared to dreads in PVP.  and now a normal nightmare is …
  • im also not by any means concerned with majority approval.  the majority of players of UO are old.  im 37 myself, which is relatively old by video game standards. thats not who we're here to please.  my grandfather used words which i would never use…
  • @Cinderella by your logic, just about any racial slur could be deemed a "nickname"
  • unfortunately i dont think theres any active RP guilds on atlantic anymore.  i could be wrong, there might be some small groups of players but nothing like it was.  many of the RPers left about 5-6 years ago i think to Catskills, and the Rpers activ…
  • I think the problem is more that loot progression in UO ever since the new loot system was introduced 7 years ago has been inconsistant, and plagued with issues. main issue was the 2 years of bot farming high end legendaries that was allowed to go …
  • its not so much "running from vendor to vendor", its more having a mental idea of the game world.  like before search i knew where the good vendors where.  i had much better idea of the houses, and players who lived in the area.  yes it took a littl…
  • i guess why i liked no vendor search is because i would find alot better deals.  which would also be good for players without much gold available. same goes for auction safes with no search.  you can find alot better deals than with search. now wi…
  • Maximus_Neximus said: But auction safes aren’t available to everyone. The new vendor is.  if your selling items that are worth more than 175m, pretty sure you can buy a few safes for 10-15m each
  • Vladimir said: Agree @ Smoot. But i dont thin we will ever have a auction safe search feature, ao why not make the new vendor with no cap im probably one of the few that prefers no search.  it takes away from the immersion of the game.
  • i voted for keep 175m cap, only because we have auction safes.  if there were no cap auctionsafes would be obsolete. now if auction safes were updated, so that people actually used them for auctions, then i would be in favor of higher cap. as it i…
  • eay fix just turn off those drops for endless journey.   would help with with the bots in blackthorns dungeon farming minax arties too.  as far as i know endless journey cant get arty drops like crimson cincture, and cant get EM drops (because ive…
  • shard shields.  i have old accounts so have many of my own, but they should really be available to all.  maybe 50 bucks a shield or around there seems reasonable.
  • @Ezekiel_Zane do the primeval lich spawn, or roof belfry.  basically anything that hits very hard and youll notice.
  • psycho said: We have discussed steam in the past, but I dont think it was done. (unknown reason) UO would be very popular on steam.  the reason its not there is because EA doesnt allow any of its games on steam.
  • Kyronix said: This has been great, thank you to everyone who has participated so far.  This information will be very helpful in future publishes. To summarize the top 10 artifacts based on those who have reported their preferences,  Crimson…
  • a hole should just be put on all shards.

  • blaze cus have been duped forever with transfers timed specifically with crashes.  one of reasons id never buy one.  not as rare as the pricepoints people ask for them. im surprised this much information was given out, kinda encourages other poten…
  • Hermione said: Darn. There have been many threads in the past on uostratics on how shard shields ruined the game.  I don’t understand, there are so many shards, why they ruined them all and didn’t leave any unruined? If UO was a modern g…
  • what makes these better than a Cu?  or 2 slot nightmare?  wondering if i should get one before event is over.  i just dont see much point because you cant ride them but am i missing something?
  • i play Classic because its looks better.
  • @harrharr1yeah thats a chiv style graphic.  it was "fixed" because it had container script on it, probably same script that was removed from the one i linked.  so it effected all with that script to be able to drop items in and take them out.  and t…
  • is it a chiv style runebook?  there was a kinda recent event drop "runebook / spellbook" A Weathered Black Book Containing Hit Lists That Belonged To An Assassin Of The Hand Of Death  i think was the one.  it could be used as a container, minor expl…
  • armor is fine, and pretty balanced.  you can make on the cheap imbued suit with one or two cheap legendaries and get by fine, or max a suit if your really into gear. im a pretty established player, but also not the most insane when it comes to char…
  • the rewards arent for me.  its just deco which i could do without.  i have plenty of deco and rares already. but alot of people enjoy it.  the parrot should not have taken up the robe slot. i would have liked to see at least one or two rewards tha…
  • i went with no.  hawkwind's robe is very powerful.  tradeoff is that its ugly.  i think thats balanced and i dont want to re-do any suits.  none are built around hawkwinds because its just too ugly.  so i dont want to have to change anything.

  • @LilyGrace if your mostly healing, having spellweaving and doing a few word of deaths at the end will greatly increase your chances.
  • @LilyGrace its tough to get a drop with just healing done.  for best chances, get the bars of dragons and cus and spam heals on those.  players too but thats usually smaller heals.  im not sure exactly how healing looting rights work, but know it ha…

  • popps said: Smoot said: maybe my first post was too long. you can get looting rights on a thrower, archer or tamer with an imbued suit and jewels and 110 scroll.  cost of gear is really a non-issue. i do agree that lack of knowledge of…
