  • The actual problem is with parry mages being too strong. Until parry mages are balanced, any buffs to mages in general will carry over to buffing parry mages. Meaning, you want to make pure mages stronger...  so you buff pure mages by adding sick ar…
  • I'm going to re-suggest a battlegrounds-type of shard:- Dedicated PVP shard- Cannot create characters on battlegrounds shard, only transfer existing from other shards - Rewards-based system - Able to freely transfer characters to/from via a token pu…
  • just add parry to your build
  • To be frank the entire EJ system seemed unnecessarily complicated to me. Compare EJ to 30-day trials: - EJ are permanent until banned, thus working up characters to act as bots seems more lucrative vs. a 30-day trial that you KNOW will be locked aft…
  • Lord_Frodo said: How many VPNs can you run on one computer while trying to mulitybox, wouldn't that be like trying to control 10 different CPUs at the same time.  That would be one hell of a computer system. Without going into great detail t…
  • I like that they did something to notify/alert when multiple EJ accounts are using the same IP, but again this is very easily avoidable using VPNs. So the next step in my mind would be:- Develop something that polls your EJ users- Check their X/Y lo…
  • Gotcha! I recently had to move my domains from Google Domains (they sold to SquareSpace) to Cloudflare. $9.15/yr for .com
  • It looks like there will be rewards and upon the Shattering and you can transfer your character to another shard. I'm assuming the rewards can follow to another shard (like Atlantic) If so, and the rewards are lucrative, this could be a popular syst…
  • @JCtheBuilder thank you for what you do I moved away from GoDaddy like 20 years ago because of their pricing. Just throwing it out there, if you sign up for DigitalOcean, spin up a $5/mo Ubuntu droplet and give me access I can setup a secure web s…
  • It looks like there might be an error in the Vanilla Forums configuration. I tried logging in with Chrome, navigating to a thread and getting logged out.  Then I inspected the cookies to find something interesting... Several variables were marked fo…
  • Edge and Chrome both use the same webkit... which is why I'm on Firefox to post this. I too am having issues with both Edge and Chrome with the UO Forums. After I signed in, if I navigate to any part of the forums (change threads, browse categories,…
  • There's a fine line between exploit and clever usage of game mechanics. When I hear "expoit" I think of it as someone taking advantage of a software flaw.  When someone is caught "exploiting" I would expect some type of consequences should be done …
  • If you really want to nerf hybrid mages then you'd do something like if template has over 200 skill points allocated in casting schools then decrease their weapon damage. *FOR EXAMPLE* Changes to the weapon directly effect more than just hybrid tem…
  • Yoshi said: "why they are making unofficial client and EC faster than official client? they should be same speed then please " First off EC is an official client, I think you meant to say "why is EC faster than CC" - as they are both offi…
  • Yoshi said: Also, if you are fighting more than one person and they both hit you at the same time, you also get splintered and disarmed. What’s the point in making splinter not proc on disarm if there are cheats to get around it?  A splint…
  • I suggest if you have a problem with CC performance maybe you should upgrade to the EC client.  Proposing combat changes because your PC or choice of client don't perform well isn't a good enough excuse when you have the option to choose a better pe…
  • Pawain said: They are at the keyboard while doing this. I doubt EA can make us just use 1 account per person. Some are for sure, and of those - some are doing it legally which I'm not against at all.  I'm not against people doing it the l…
  • Pawain said: Yup recycling will fix it so shards are dead 8 months then they come back to get the items since they know they won't miss anything by taking an 8 month break. Recycling items is the problem. "Then they come back" ? They're …
  • So what does the thief gain?  The only possible thing I could see a thief benefitting from this change is so they can cause other players grief. Other than that, try playing Siege.
  • FOR REFERENCE This is an example of how fast you can break out of paralyzing blow. https://streamable.com/0qu7gd (this video was taken 7 years ago)
  • Who would be better than to explain mechanics than the developers?  Would love for one to chime in... We are on the official forums, right? Oh wait, we're discussing the use of these never-ending trap boxes that were probably never meant to exist …
  • Which shard and what is/was your ping to the server you were testing on? (for reference) Also, can you do test without UOA? The reason I ask is because this message pops up when you hit the box: at the exact time where the "you can move" should b…
  • LearnMe said: Kinda odd, Higgs is here constantly crying about mages being OP, not mages, just parry mages I see no problem adding stun to the game as long as they reduce block/evade chance for caster templates just asking for a little…

  • Cookie said: And ps. I won that debate hands down, mainly because I was completely correct on all counts You think you're correct on a bunch of statements that you're sorely wrong on. Cookie said:I don't think I've ever met you in battle, t…
  • LearnMe said: I think the interesting thing when I see you debating the casters being OP and asking for dci reduction is why are all of your dexxers suits refined to lower your resist cap and increase your DCI to 60? 1.  I don't bother figh…
  • @CovenantX bro u think I've been gone away that long? I was asking what percentage of those 2 things attribute to the 90-95% of the pvp problems.   
  • Bilbo said: Parry/Mages are not the goto build for taking down Champs and it sure isn't the goto for the Roof or Events. My friend, we are on two different planets.  Someone running into a Felucca dungeon spinning up a champion and killin…
  • Bilbo said: Alls people are saying is they are OP with no real examples.  What spells/equipment against what spells/equipment/builds with results.  Say what ever you want but without hard facts/data then they are just words. That pretty much …
  • Bilbo said: And a Dexer can also run evasion and they both have to use a wep and a Dexer can run Chiv with EoO so who is really at the disadvantage if the Dexer lands 1 blow.  If a Dexer can't take one hit from a Parry/Mage then they really hav…
