a cap that says: Make UO great again with a t-shirt logo in the back that says: i'm no Heretic.

a 1st anniversary reward rioter gear and include a torch with a war fork. 

Acid_Rain

Shard shield that once clicked gives its owner a token to a shard that enforces the ToS, bans scripters, & doesn’t allow 3rd party clients. Shields should be available to everyone.

Lord_Nythrax

How about a vendor search system that works on Atlantic?

McDougle

Halloween contest winners banners? Mesanna to take responsibility? 

TimSt

A master account bound shield or painting that gives one account bound random 120 Power Scroll per month.

Drakelord

I saw two ideas on Facebook

1.  A wall plaque that can hold all your shard shields. something like what was done for soul stones.

2.  My own personal moon gate to lock down in my house

psycho

an UO plague that fixes all bugs on the shard instantly

An ultimate Bod book that has the storage of 5000 or 50000.

An ultimate seed box, that can store 5000 of each type and not total.

A magical evil idol that can be used once pr 24hour and it scouts a random champion spawn

A totem that stores Luck armor and gives you that total luck for 1hour

A totem that gives you a rune to a random IDOC on the shard once pr 24 hours

need more suggestions?

A totem that gives odd colors that can be applied to armor/weapons that last for 1hour,  once pr 24h

A Healing Staff that can be placed by the Veteran into the ground, that heals a party within radius.
This was inspired by our Scalis hunt tonight. {Credit to Frankie}
It could tick every 3 seconds for 10-20 healing, and heal party members who come within range (10 tiles).
Could be used in pvm and pvp.
Originally thought of for Scalis, but could be used in Harrower defence, VvV altar defence, Champion spawn defences, Blackthorn Captains etc - all group pvp and pvm events.
It could use Arcane Gems to recharge it - 1000 gems for 1000 ticks.

popps

An ARMOIRE that can hold 500 pieces of Armor but counts as 1 lockdown and has a search feature through which the player can find more easily the piece of armor one is looking for.

A WEAPONS RACK that can hold 500 weapons but counts as 1 lockdown and has a search feature through which the player can find more easily the weapon one is looking for.

A SEARCH tool that can find any item wanted throughout one's own account in all characters bank boxes, backpack, containers in the House and would tell where that item is.

As someone who doesn't have the heart for PVP I really would love this idea for at least some kind of chance to get 120 scrolls without paying an arm and leg for at least some of my scrolls, love that idea.

Some fun ideas....

Vendor costume item I can put on the vendor's paperdoll that transforms them into monsters... I've always been disappointed that it doesn't work with the existing costumes (at least not in EC).  Would be fun to set up some Dragons or Ogres to sell things.  Might not even need to be a "new" item if you can make the existing statues from vet rewards function this way somehow.

Could always have more teleporter items.  Someone proposed a graveyard teleporter to all the graveyards once.  I thought that was a good idea.  You could also do ones to all the NPC shopkeepers that you can bribe.  I used to spend a lot of time bribing up BODs and even sell bribe books on my vendors.

A wearable weapon slot instrument that you can activate to play different tunes besides the ones the instruments have played sinced the beginning of the game.  Just for fun, even.

How about a summoning portal which just pulls a completely random mob up in your house when locked down?.... could be a frog, could be a dark father, doesn't need to have drops..  I just had a house on Legends once where I built a stadium on the roof with three tiered arena seating and thought it would be fun to host gladiator type events there just for the spectacle.

Pawain

Moo Deng Mount.

Cookie

A Library style bookshelf to store Primer Mastery Volumes.

Cookie

Current situation - not cool.

Kaz

An advanced jewelry box that has a search function.  

Fenriswolf

How about a Minor Artifact dismantler. It will dismantle a selected list of minor artifacts from the game and allow you to create an upgraded Artifact based on the materials it produces. So weapons would produce materials to produce an upgraded weapon etc. This would clear out a load of the pretty much worthless minor artis from the game and slowly introduce better ones

Fenriswolf

A treasure map teleport add on for Davies Locker or standalone device you can drop a map onto. Instead of wasting tonnes of time trying to work out where the location is (i have to login to the enhanced client to find the maps all the time, then log back into the CC as i prefer this). The add-on will allow you to recall directly to the chest location (if recalling is allowed) 

loop

I would prefer not to see QoL features that should be available to all players. I would also prefer not to see items which alter the game’s meta, or items which are lost irrevocably if they fall with your house.

Some examples of purely cosmetic things:

Non-local paperdoll skins that can be seen by all players

more hairstyles

more custom house tile art, house signs, and foundations

unique ghost models for your character when you die

1000% on the Armoire and Weapons Rack.  Add BOD Book that takes 1 lockdown.

How come so many users talking about BODs Book, asking for something that can be easily bypass by any legit players?



Yet no one's asking for the elephant in the room for any legit CC user; alphabetical order..

If something is needed here.. is a legit way to clean those bods faster over stacking more..

Vendors were never intended as an extra storage to houses, meanwhile we all know the trick of adding BOD books to a vendor, we all know at the same time its a bug. Your method is not the solution. I for one stopped collecting BODs long ago due to housestorage space, I cant do so many to keep up with the new incomming BODs so no point collecting them in first place.

Anything added to a vendor should have a pricetag.  Devs should delete vendors holding BOD books once a new solution is presented.

I'm a pvper with a lot of enemies who lives in Felucca.

To have vendors, you need to make the house public, yes you can lock doors etc, but I don't want the house public.

As Psycho says, the solution you mention is a heretic bug anyway, so we don't want to be using it.

I have no room for deco in my castle because of BODS, I understand the requests.

You need to step up your game son.. i've been subbing an alt account for this exact reason (room for bods and vendors).. the main account is base on felluca for the red character and the mule account is base on trammel for vendors and BODS.

I'm sure your highly disapointed there is no cheat engine out there to fix your problem..

And btw no one around here believe u doing BODS.. u said it urself ~3 months ago you do not craft anymore (u were saying something along the line: crafters are useless now).. in fact all u doing crafting wise (artisan) is enhance/imbue weapons for new players.. hypocritical.. get out of here!

Edit: who ever is saying it's a bug.. is lying, i'm calling this intended optimisation of your vendor space/slots.. u can even stored ITEMS in bags not for sale...

Lock your doors and set up a teleporter.. any old school player would do that on felluca.

I'm maintaining what I said.. if BODS have a problem.. it's stuff like alphabetical order (sorting option) we (not you, I mean legit players) need help to clear them faster over stacking more for absolutly nothing else than hoarding disorder and/or lazyness... with this sexy bribery system, we gucci.. no need to stock hundred of thousand anymore.

for context.. on the mule account i got multiple smith/tail/carp/bow, etc.. most people will have ONE worker.

Sorry i miss that message.. just buy a 5.25% vendor for ~30k.. put items in a bag and sell it for 200 millions.. there is your pricetag and NOT FOR SALE.. (assuming u store items that ain't worth 200millions.. if you do; put a higher price tag.. this is almost FREE STORAGE! while optmizing your vendors space.. wich is still limited, so do what is better FOR YOU with that, don't let it go to waste!)

You guys want to play a theme park heresy full of bots and cheaters.. this is supposed to be a legit sandbox.. what a shame.

The theme park police telling me i'm doing illegal stuff in the box full of sand.. cuz the other kido can't put effort nor time in what u accomplish.

a bod book "vessel" would be awesome as a vet reward.
Let it be a container that can hold 25 books.
Each book can hold 500 bods.

I would like it to be one lockdown 
but would settle for 125
If it could hold that many full books

This "vessel" could be a stack of books
and you could use a bod book cover on it
(one of the books in the middle would be dyed this color)
so at one glance you could tell what's inside.

It takes lot of bods to do the trees for the Artisan Festival
so it would be nice to have something to store them in
and have them all in one space
instead of having to store them on vendors
or holding them in alts backpacks

I would really love this.... 
all dedicated crafters would too

Any legit crafters on CC would lose his mind sorting a single BB vessel; 25x500.

Love the idea on paper but in practice this is insanity without a good legit sorting option on CC, like alphabetical order.

Personally i could collect 76 bods a day it would take me 6 months to fill a single vessel (considering the rejects and the imperfect collect, i'd say 10 months wich a great; one vessel would be more than enough for me, but without addressing the legit CC sorting problem.. that vessel would just encourage me to not clear those bods and just get a second vessel ^^ (since we could virtually store unlimited number of bods)

Wich is bad design imo, considering some of those aspect. (without addressing the legit CC sorting.. this is one of those thing a good designer should say no, imo)


EDIT: just to be clear here, sometimes people... the legit sorting option was made BEFORE bribery.. it was working ok to sort em by reward; 20 val exc; click click click, drop drop drop.. next.. but now.. it's insanity

Riner

Lots of good ideas in this thread. Really like the BOD book vessel idea. Think all crafters would as the current methods are annoying. The account search tool idea to search house and bank boxes. Mastery book shelf. The armoire and weapons racks are good ideas. And my favorite a painting or other feature which gives 120 scrolls periodically. 

Kragg

I have already suggested this, but a tool belt. Like mages and a reg belt,  a crafter having his tools and organized.

This is worthy for a vet reward: A magical item that can allow us to modify one of the following options on Any item, single use only:

Options:
1) Remove shard bound
2) Convert antique or curse to brittle
3) Reset durability back to 255/255 for jewels

Poison

Vet reward idea: an updated ccDesk client comparable to EC and ccWeb or the ability to use ccWeb with only my uo credentials.
