Tabin said: I just made an Ostard. It is comparable to a bane. I was able to get it to 500 hp. It shouldn't be better than a legacy pet imo so I think devs hit the sweet spot. My understanding is, as @Obsidian well analyzes in his Post…

Obsidian said: Kyronix said: @ Obsidian either of those adjustments, on the low end, will bump the Ostard to 4 slots. Please don't do that then. This needs to remain a 3 slot pet to make it viable after training. Maybe adjust the…

Kyronix said: @ Obsidian either of those adjustments, on the low end, will bump the Ostard to 4 slots. @Kyronix The point is, here, whether or not the GOAL is to provide to players a pet that is EQUALLY comparable to the Bane Dragon, whi…

Obsidian said: I too think the revised Wildfire Ostard is a step in the right direction. It is now a usable pet. This compromise puts the WO with less intensity than the original bane dragon, but now provides an outlet to obtain a comparabl…

Uriah_Heep said: This is beginning to sound intriguing. Got my attention now, especially with the no powerscrolls part, weeding out the unused skills, etc. It will be easier for everyone to get to the same level this way. Hopefully, (finge…

One big question mark for me, is the question about scripting, duping, cheating and unapproved Third Party programs.... I mean, I can already imagine on day 1 of the New Legacy Shard how some players will go with scripting skills, script gathering…

Drakelord said: The one concern I have about the vessel is, it is now a KEY piece that will need to set as such, not like a chest, basket, or a jewelry box that can be placed in a bedroom. No this will have to be placed in the main courtyard …

Optimus said: I definitely agree. This pet should be toned down a bit stat-wise, and made to be a 3, or even 2 slot pet to make it viable. Given that the only other pvp-viable pet with poisoning is a non-spawning dragon selling for absurd amo…

Lex said: @ Kyronix Don't invalidate banes. People spent a lot of time and effort to get these.Pre-patch pets have a niche in this game. Ostards should have a different niche, not just be carbon copies of previous content. To my opinion…

This Post got me thinking about the New Ostard.... https://forum.uo.com/discussion/comment/54319/#Comment_54319 I am not sure whether what that Poster says (i.e. that Pack Instinct also works for pets with pack instinct who belong to different Tam…

keven2002 said: Kyronix mentioned it on TC1 yesterday that it would be something to use in a future event type thing. This is a real bummer then.... I was getting already all hyped about getting my Treasure Hunter trained into a "Famed Ar…

Gwen said: @ PlayerSkillFTW it dont need to be your ostard. You can party with other people. Try Stygian Drake, for example. Which is 4 slot. Fighting same mob (or player) with other drakes it will get pack bonus. But raising it to 5 slot w…

Marge said: popps said: Still, 10 a week would still be way too low... I mean, it would take a whole week to imbue just 1 property on 1 item.... 5 weeks to imbue 1 single item with 5 properties, and then 45 weeks which is about 11 month…

It might have been something related to yesterday, I also had trouble posting this thread and ended up, by mistake, to post it twice, I some error message gump, quite large too... So, maybe, now that the issue is over it works, I guess that all is …

Azarth said: Some reflections on what I think is great, and what could be improved. 1. The peculiar coconut palm trees look excellent! Fine attention to detail. 2. Hook's Shield: a. Loving the Spell Channeling & +10 SDI !!! b. Pe…

Kaz said: @ popps why not? Because bane dragons are overcapped legacy creatures. Why should they be repeated? Thats like saying they should bring back every creature thats ever been in the game, whether it was weaker or stronger in its l…

ZekeTerra said: I agree, 1 a week is useless. You need 10 essence just to imbue 1 property on an item. 10 a week would at least make it somewhat useful with a cap of 100. Still, 10 a week would still be way too low... I mean, it would t…

Khyro said: Maximus_Neximus said: Has there been confirmation of how many straps you receive when you claim it? 1 unfortunately. So if you want a Spellbook Strap and a Runebook Strap, you need to use 2 Vet Rewards per character. …

Pawain said: Were you able to use Hooks Map? Other than see a dialog box. Well, apparently, "Deciphering it will require one with the reputation as a famed Artifact Hunter"..... Now, "how" we are supposed to get such reputation is still …

keven2002 said: As per Kyronix the system is automatically making them a 4 slot, but they are an exact clone stat wise of banes. Something will need to be decreased if you want them to be 3 slot. My guess is HP. But then, this would still …

I am much intrigued by the Black Market "Hook's treasure Map" (cost 150,000 doubloons) which, by the way, is missing from the Black Market New Rewards List in the Full 110 Publish Notes at https://uo.com/wiki/ultima-online-wiki/publish-notes/publish…
