  • Well, I wanted to get a set of the Forest of the Dark Ilshenar Statues but, we are only about 10 days from it being over (I understood December 19th), I got only about 35 Statues and, considering how hard the drops are (I have not even gotten any of…
  • Fortis said: you can do the event in trammel and in fel so popps play where you want tram or fel As many have already said, this Dungeon is quite small so, chances are that there won't be enough kills to get sufficient drops and thus Rewar…
  • Larisa said: One way around that? Don't die... KIDDING! Fill your order AT the city of destination.  Well dying is not the only way to end up with a messed up backpack.... Say that Krampus spawns while one is delivering a Trade Order an…
  • That is a joke, right ? It is a well known fact that Templates rigged for PvM are, obviously, NOT fit to PvP. Therefore, by doing as you say, this would only make the PvMers do the work and then have the PvPers with ease and no effort come and tak…
  • Pawain said:   Popps did a Trade route finally. They need to change the box to cut the item numbers in half. 5 lines can take 80 to 100 items.  And if one happens to die because the computer freezes, the client hangs up or what not, the b…
  • Pawain said: Isn't this a rerun thread?   Id have 100 statues if they came from the Boss. Please delete this re post. @ Mariah Well, for the record I also mentioned as an alternative to make killing The Guide boss allocate significant poi…
  • MissE said: Asked Mesanna this exact question at a meet and greet re setting bod books to 1 item and was told directly it was not EVER gonna happen so I guess you can stop discussing it. No reason given just a flat out NO.   What is inex…
  • On the farming part, I need to agree. I do not know others, but time is limited, and the time often required to do something in the game is simply way too much. At that point, one starts to wonder whether so much time might be better spent doing s…
  • Larisa said: And the whole having to set your house public and some people not wanting to do that argument is  invalid because as it's already been stated you can set your door security. Both my houses on Siege are public but no one can get i…
  • Shandara said: Straight from the UO Wiki regarding BOD Books on Vendors: BOD Books and VendorsBOD books may be placed on vendors in two different ways:1) Place the book on a vendor and set it to “not for sale”, then set a price for the indivi…
  • Marge said: Storage is not the issue for the trees not getting done - it's simply people don't want to put the larges toward it. The BOD books can be put on a vendor and made Not For Sale - thus not taking up any house storage.It helps also t…
  • keven2002 said: @ Kyronix @ Mesanna I've heard some people having issues on lower population shards getting the star on the tree because not enough BODs are turned in. I think something that would help this (and really help everyone with …
  • Does anyone know what content has actually been activated for December, if any, at servers up from maintainance ?
  • TimSt said: I don't think popps is saying the casting of of wildfire should not reveal the caster but if anything takes damage the caster should not be revealed.  So what I am thinking popps is saying is the caster casts wildfire then casts i…
  • Seth said: popps said: Sir_Jerms said: The point is to release content to the game so that players can play said content.  Not everyone cares about getting every color of every item released, and some of those that are realize t…
  • Pawain said: But Popps wants to go around hidden and kill everything while hidden.  So, not working as Popps intends. Offensive actions reveal so, I am not sure what you are talking about..... If one casts any spell, included AoS spells, th…
  • Max_Blackoak said: Mariah has provided the correct answer. You doing damage to someone else will reveal you. This also applies to special moves like bleed. Bleed ticks will reveal you when you put bleed on someone and then hide. This is worki…

  • Pawain said: @ popps  UO is not meant for every player to have everything. Please stop complaining and just play on Test Center. Or you just think they should have 1 statue so the guy who just played one time can get everything. What is t…
  • Cookie said: popps said: Thank you. So, a full set would need 8 x 8 = 64 Statues.... Wow, I wonder how many players will be able to get (not buy) 64 Statues for a full set... I do not know others, but the most I can get is like 1,…
  • Pawain said: popps said: What is the total of Hues that the statues can drop with and does anyone have a list of them all ? Also, are there any hues which are rarer to drop then the others ? Which are they on such a case ? Thanks …
  • What is the total of Hues that the statues can drop with and does anyone have a list of them all ? Also, are there any hues which are rarer to drop then the others ? Which are they on such a case ? Thanks
  • Tim said: To make your case name another example of where you can do damage and not be revealed. That is not a proper question... We are not talking here about direct damage but from AoS spells... And AoS spells do not do damage the cas…
  • keven2002 said: @ popps  - Why do you always harp on the same things even after people break it down for you? I used my archer on Napa yesterday to do the spawn and did just fine aside from the massive amount of ammo. It seems like you are th…
  • Mariah said: This is not a bug. Any field spell, be it poison field, fire field or wildfire will reveal you if  you have cast it on a target and that target is taking damage from it. I am sorry but that does not make any sense. What reve…

  • Pawain said: Another player and I have been shard hopping and found a completely different experience. We have found very helpful and kind players so far.  I did not bring gold to a shard and someone gave me 3M for insurance.  We have been o…
  • Polaris said: This is the type of thinking that enables scripting. You have been around for decades Popps, I think you would understand that better than anyone, no?  Scripters use VPNs and a few of them have 10 different computers set up with …
  • Radst said: Yes, it's time that EJ privilege was reviewed. Splint weps in PVP is a HUGE market, and people are using EJ bots to farm these. Make a new char and equip noob armors/weps, and bots are ready to work in 3 minutes. It's insane. Ther…
