  • sdfdsd Pinkerton said:I just want to add support to the OP.  As a returning player Doom was one of the things I was excited to try again, and it is not fun.   Way back in the day, doing Doom in the months after it was introduced, the DF was …
  • Okami said: While I know for the experienced veteran player base with guild contacts and such, it's less of an issue, I've attempted several times to blind build a character based off the Haven tutorial and the island itself. While the tuto…
  • Some games have flourished under Free2Play, others have not. I played both City of Heroes and Lord of the Rings Online. Both went F2P around 2011. LOTRO is still expanding, but CoH was closed down by the developer. Rumors were it wasn't that CoH was…
  • Arroth_Thaiel said: PapaSmurf said: Did a little digging into the archives and found this -  Weapon swing speed is now capped at 40% of base swing speed or 1.25 seconds, whichever is higher.The current Stamina cap is 250 and the current S…
  • Far as I know the same has been true for years: 1) The fastest a character can swing a weapon is every 1.25 seconds 2) Swing Speed Increase reduces the weapon's base speed. Ex: 25% on a 4 second weapon means the weapon now swings every 3 seconds. …
  • I love the details included with the Runic Hunting Atlas. Should be very popular with players familiar with Britainia and new players! Great work!

  • Faeryl said: In regards to the alacrity token, why add something so powerful that diminishes the value of the alacrity scrolls already available in game? Sure, it's account bound, but allowing up to ten people to be influenced by it? That pr…
  • Kyronix said: As far as the trade deals for reds, one of my favorite quotes from a former dev (Wilki) is,  "Being red doesn’t mean you’re on the “red team”. It means that you’re a murderer, an outcast from society, someone whose past deeds are …
  • Second question answered first. Players have a cap of 700 Skill points.  It increases by +5 for each year of subscription to a max of 720 on your 4th year/ 48th month Most players do not combine Magery/Mysticism casters with Weapon users. The reaso…
  • Already see plenty of spam bots on Pacific; I keep the channels off for that resson.
  • PenNPaper said: Ho how would that relate to an archer without parry with like 100 dex and say 20 or more chance of defense. So looking to raise that anywhere between 30% to 50%? PenNPaper said:  Found t his thread about DCI on Str…
  • LillyMae_1 said: This is why i have vendors especially for new players which has loot lesser artifact and above on it even major and legendary pieces, i dont price it i just put it on the vendor and whatever the vendor prices it as it stays a…

  • Hi Pen.Short answer: Skill in your Weapon in hand/equiped is your defense. Longer version specfic to you  1) Ultima Online compares your Archery Skill to the Weapin or Wrestling Skill of you target - if your Archery Skil equals your target's Skill …
  • Kirthag said: @ Thalon I think this Del meant first here on Pac's new forum.     Now we just need to post more stuffs, eh? LOL! You have been dupped by Del's thread title Kirthag. You should compare the date Del posted to the date on Arroth…

  • Kyronix said: Picus said: Is there a plan to revamp the current loot in this game?  It seems to be that one can only get the "higher" end loot in 1-4 end game type places. ... This is something we constantly battle with, especial…

  • Zapp said: Great post for returning players.  Could you also give a good idea where / how to get the better items nowadays? A lot of returning players might have the time to hunt but not the resources needed to buy some of these new awesome …
  • MyUO shows six character named Del on the Pacific Shard. Of course you can pick a different name for the forums so that does not mean much.  Also, for the record Arroth's thread beat Del's by two days.

  • You are welcome Rock. Also, Mariah wrote a wiki article on vendor searches: https://uo.com/wiki/ultima-online-wiki/gameplay/npc-commercial-transactions/vendor-search/
  • PenNPaper said:  Hello all I have been playing sound with archery for a few weeks now. So far I am disappointed with the accuracy issues. I was thinking it might be interested to have a marksmanship skill but that might go over very well. Mar…
  • Very true Smoot, but more detail than I felt was needed.  I also have some legacy Stygian Abyss items with qualities that no longer spawn such as "unlucky". Players are unlikely to come accross such items unless there is a player vendor still stocke…
  • Just in case you  did not know, treasure maps are now randomized in location rather than located at one of several fixed respawn locations. This made old t-hunter assist programs/websites and in-game rune libraries useless for finding the correct sp…
  • Thank you Mariah; and thank you for doing a great job on the wiki articles too!
  • Rock said: Thalon, thanks!  It never occurred to me that I wasn't close enough to a banker. Unfortunately I lost the new newbie award, a rune to The Darkness. I assumed it would lead to a sort of "final boss" fight for New Haven. The ru…
  • Rock said: I know eventually she'll have something much better than either of these, but which would you use and why? I'm attracted to the exquisite sleeves, but I like the fact that the Armstrong Arms are blessed. On an unrelated question,…
  • Amesc said: I know they removed the Stygian Abyss downoad but what about equiping the gear? Everytime I attempt to equip something that needs a Stygian abyss download it just reads "You must upgrade to Stygian Abyss to use this". Anyone have …
