edited April 2018 in General Discussions
So, if iI read it correctly, according to the UO Official Wiki page - https://uo.com/wiki/ultima-online-wiki/beginning-the-adventure/deluxe-starter-pack/ - the DSP will NOT include the "Virtue Shield" and will come with only 100.000 GPs. No indication of price till now...

    Is it only available to new accounts?  I can use every single thing in that pack and my account is 10 years old.

    I quite like the art in the guide runebook. More of that.

    The description of the Deluxe Journeyman Armor alone makes me want to buy the starter pack even thou my account is 19 years old.  I was going to try to craft something like it.

    @Kyronix Would you be able to clarify some points on the Alacrity Token? I tried asking in the TC forum back when Release 2 came out, but never got a response.

    Here are my questions on the token:

    On TC1, when I activate it I get a message "You have enabled your new player skill gain aura", followed a few seconds later by "Your new player skill gain bonus period is now over." Is this just a bug, or are there other restrictions to it? (Need to be EJ, need to be non-maxed skills, etc.).

    Also, as far as the week long timer goes. Since it appears I can toggle the Token on and off, is the timer a week from the point of purchase? The point of first activation? Or a week of total "activated" time?

    Thank you!

    The publish notes clearly list the Virtue Shield as a seperate item, and not part of the Deluxe starter pack

    Sorry I missed it previously.  That message issue should be resolved.  The timer starts after first use.

    I did not mean to imply that it should have been, but simply describing the de facto... :)

    OK, a 2.000 sovreigns price tag. Seems fair to me.
    Only a question @Mariah : the DSP can be bought & used by every kind of accounts?
    Even the "normal" active Veteran subs-paying ones, right?

  • MariahMariah Posts: 3,239Moderator
    As far as I know, but you should ask @Kyronix that one.

    Yes, you can and use it regardless of your account status.

    I am buying 2.  Thanks for this.  As far as I am concerned the more reason you give me to spend money in the store the longer we can keep the lights on.

    Will these be available on Siege? I won't complain either way, just curious :)

    @Bleak @Kyronix

    Can you separate the 100 Blackthorns points out and sell that token only?
    Focus on what you can do, not what you can't.

    Only the purchaser can use the tokens. You can't buy the pack and sell it piecemeal ingame.

    So I guess the question then becomes, since pu99 has been released and the deluxe pack is in the store...where is the Virtue Shield?

    That will be released in the store at a future time.

    In other words, Soon™

    Hopefully after the dye issue is fixed? o:)  

    Also, it sits oddly in the tile when on the ground (its high on the tile, centered is preferable)

    Isn't that what I just said to Pawain, you know that part where I said it was account bound.

    But you also said: "you may have to buy the item and then sell it kind of like Vet rewards"

    Which was a tad contradictory...

    The Deluxe Journeyman Armor does work on a 19 year veteran mage and it is dye-able using the leather dye tub vet reward.  Although I would have gone with a leather hat instead of leather hood.

    NO.  I would use the token on an EJ account and give the reward I buy from blacthorns to another account.

    Or I just buy it and use it on my reg account since I cant log in on any other accounts.
    Focus on what you can do, not what you can't.
