ForeverFun said: Taking a thief to this boss fight isn't exactly pulling your own weight as it relates to team contribution. This thread is light on specifics as it relates to what the proposed change would be. For starters, the loot that pe…

I seem to remember from a good while back (tried to look for that post but could not find it... perhaps my memory fails me and I am not remembering it well ?), that perhaps Kyronix posted in a Thread about Rogues that the Developers had in mind some…

Mariah said: Perhaps you should read more about stealing from monsters? https://uo.com/wiki/ultima-online-wiki/combat/pvm-player-versus-monster/stealing-from-monsters/to quote pertinent sections:A given monster can be stolen from once in its…

shootgun said: I agree with everyone. The only thing I would change is the drop rate from different content. TMaps/Fishing/Sea pirates, the things that take more time to do, should drop more hats than void pool. Other than that, it is all goo…

Nyre said: What is PBD's? Personal Bless Deed, unless I am mistaken. It is a deed which time back was given to characters of an account to bless a single item of their choice, to my understanding, the item can be unblessed and the bless …

PlayerSkillFTW said: So, after seeing how you can't get any kills until Wave 65+ on Atlantic's Void Pool due to how fast bots insta kill the mobs, i had an idea. Make it to where the mobs will periodically go into a "damage reflect" mode (or …

I have had enough of Vanity Mounts, Statuettes and the likes. Furthermore, a player who has maintained an account as active, paying the monthly subscription month after month, year after year, decade after decade, for 20, 25 and now soon 30 years, …

JackFlashUk said: @ mariah. Please lock this. Popps can’t play the game and wants it all changed to suit him, as per usual. This is very boring How so ? Last I knew, tanking MOBs in Ultima Online is considered a valid gameplay tactics an…

Lord_Nythrax said: popps said: Personally, I think that it should be made easier to break Pirates aggro on players' characters... as it is now, Pirates stick on players' character and it is very hard to break this aggro and it usually en…

Pawain said: Where did you come up with 1.25 @ popps? Answer to question: neither. It was my understanding that Stamina is a factor to calculate Swing Speed Increase and, depending on the weapon, the Stamina necessary can also be quite h…

Merlin said: Go for the metal piece. I'm a big fan of the Stamina protection if you have enough pieces to get the bonus. Good luck with the build! May I ask a question ? When you mention Stamina protection do you mean Stamina increase o…

PlayerSkillFTW said: Wild creatures (and NPC's) movement speed is based on DEX and their current Stamina %. This is capped at 190 on tamed pets, but it's not capped on wild creatures/NPCs. High Wave # Pirates have incredibly high stats and sk…

TimSt said: The Poisoning skill does not protect you from poisoning spells which is what the void pirates are using. You want to swap the Poisoning skill with the Resisting Spells skill. Added benefit of having Resisting Spells is you are al…

Pawain said: I think you should provide proof that you have actually done any of the event before you can come here and tell us drop rates and expected drop rates in the future. How many hundreds of maps or SoS have you done? How many beaco…
-
Pawain said: Why don't you have 500 hats already? Void pool is not the fastest way for a solo player to get hats. I told all of you what to do to get hats before the event began. I made at least 3 threads telling you to plan, get ready, and…

Riner said: Have to agree this is a fun event I've mostly done pirating, but enjoy going to the void pool as well. Not sure where @ username gets his information from but I'm not getting close to one hat per level, regardless of how much dama…

Pawain said: Yup, nothing to see here, Do the Void Pool. Well, it could be different if the Dread Pirates Orc Ships were "helped to spawn" more generousily by the spawn engine for NPC Ships, at least for this time limited Event so as to…

Grimbeard said: finally my Ram is useful ! will teleport over and sometimes it cast evil omen for 8125 dmg to beacon ! @Grimbeard Out of curiosity, why did you choose to scroll other skills to 120 on your Ram, and Necromancy a…

TimSt said: You need to scuttle the dread-less orc ships to get something else to spawn. If you kill the orc crew you can get a pirate hat. Unfortunately, with time limited Events which have a deadline, a lot of players look at the drop …

psycho said: I just have two comments on this. 1: The script pool breaks the pirate event. Too many hats, 3months to go. 2: Seems I made both points in 1, read that line again. Thank you I would not worry at all about the Void Pool...…

username said: Like we even needed that affirmation, but... Void pool dishing out 100+ hats per hour per player while doing 1 damage per wave... while tmaps/beacons/other aspects giving a small fraction of the hat rewards. Yea, people are sur…

TimSt said: @ popps the older crabs and lobsters have always weighed 5 stone. The new crabs and lobsters mistakenly weighed 1 stone. Raising the new crabs and lobsters to 5 stone makes them stack with the old ones. Ah, OK, thank you for …
-
What I do not understand, is why it was decided to raise the (lower) weight of the older ones to match the (higher) weight of the newer ones (if I understood it as correctly, otherwise, please correct me if I understood it as wrong) in order to have…

Pawain said: Void Pool: @ Kyronix Will this new change differentiate from a player hanging back in the void area and doing heals and resses? These players should be given drops also. To get to high levels you need support players. An…

VS has been horrible to me as well, I am also getting lots and lots of timed out searches and to try to find anything takes a whole lot of time, it is really annoying. Sometimes, a search I had done which timed out, pops up while I am fighting or a…

Pawain said: Grimbeard said: Pawain said: You know the players who put out afk toons, knew this from TC. I hope the revert made them lose drops. They did not reveal it to the devs. UO has so few players when compared to all o…
