  • When is the ban hammer going to drop on multi-boxers or has multi-boxing become legal? cause it sure as hell looks like it's tolerated.
  • the amount of multi-boxers is just sickening.       I guess we're all to start multiboxing?   it sure as hell has been looking like it's safe and legal. seems like almost everyone else is, and the ones who aren't are piggy-backing off of the multib…
  • Petra_Fyde said: @ CovenantX I don't 'salvage' failed reforge attempts, I unravel them. It can take a lot of magic residue to imbue the rest of the properties onto elemental slayer weapons. failed reforges supply that need quite nicely    ye…
  • My only issue with the Salvage bag, is that  NPC bought- items don't always salvaging on the first attempt. I buy 20 double axes/bladed staves from an npc, to reforge for elemental% weapons, my crafter has a 100% exceptional chance with those axes, …
  • I wouldn't be surprised about the price drops on repeat-rewards... it's already happened with the serpent skin quiver, and a few other items.    the price will go back up once the item cannot be farmed anymore... as it does every time. However, the …
  • I'm sure most players have encountered the same issue when using in-game store. UO is the only online game I've seen actually  Add a middle-man, to do business.... generally services are looking to remove the middle-man.   This is UO afterall (or EA…
  • Pawain said: So a seller in a popular game would be a billionaire?  And how many items do the unreal people buy from the UO store or from Vic in the back of the British Castle stable?   in-game billionaire, easily.     I wouldn't be surp…
  • Oreogl said: Okay, help me out.  I’ve looked but can’t see what I’ve messed up. why is my general chat now only showing up in my journal instead of the bottom left corner like usual? Or is this a new change?  I want to opt out of it.    I'…
  • do the pirates in the void pool have AoE attacks and/or a method to reveal hidden players?  cause if not, you really can take the void-pool to whatever the level cap is, or however high you can before you're bored just by having hidden players stand…
  • The "Ruckuss Rum" specifically mentions it's a transmogrification target in the patch notes. I wouldn't qualify that as a non-shield item though technically, it's not a shield. but it will act as one while equipped.   -I guess you're eluding to Cand…

  • There used to be a bug, not sure if it's ever been fixed,   where if you have your bank-box open, trades cause you to crash. It affected UOA & default CC,  cannot verify if it has ever happened to EC players, as I rarely login with EC.
  • What do you mean, shield properties, on non-shield items?Reactive Paralyze?  if so it's only available on two-handed weapons, I'm sure only because of bushido + parry mechanics.   0 parry chance with a shield if Bushido>Parry. I always did want …
  • Clearly whoever answered the questions in that newsletter, either didn't understand the questions? (not sure how) or It's actually intended, and it makes no sense as to why it would be. either way, it's not good.   it's one of those things you'll pr…
  • I'd rather Fortune's Visage had 20% HLD, 80+% of sampires would be replacing mace & shields or prismatic lenses with them    -personally, all I'd get is 250/290 luck out of switching to it. My sampires are already max hp without counting the hea…
  • PlayerSkillFTW said: Skullcarver is meant to be a PvP Wep, but good luck getting dexxers to drop Splintering for a Curse effect when the Hit Curse effect has a 30 second cooldown, and will just be insta appled. Curse doesn't matter either wh…
  • Skett said: you talking about this ? Hit property “Sparks” no longer triggers on special moves    yes, but it's still going to be used as a fall-back excuse (to keep parry broken). even if the fix works as described.

  • It's the Government (in UO) coming to get all the pets.
  • keven2002 said: I don't like the idea of statues that are a non-rideable version of ethys. If you check VS on ATL you will see some people trying to pass off llama statues for ethy llamas. Also for someone not super experienced, they might b…

  • Camping was the best skill in the game on LS during a certain EM event there nearly a decade ago.  not so useful outside of that though.  -I wonder if anyone that knew about it still plays? I remember selling 40 slithers on a couple trips to Atlanti…
  • PlayerSkillFTW said: CovenantX said: Do PP vollems have -18 taming req or just newer ones? Idk if i'd ever consider using one with my sampire, but my bard might like them... well, on the other hand they start at 2 followers, so if trai…
  • popps said: How do you keep the Vollem alive, though, without having veterinary ? I doubt that the Chivalry Close Wounds spell can be of much help... sure, if the Dexer goes first and tanks the MoB, then the Vollem would not take damage bu…
  • Macing Mastery is too good not to use tbh.  stagger will allow you to stand face-to-face even if you don't run parry.  if you keep stagger active, especially if you're also able to keep Toughness active as well. Do PP vollems have -18 taming req or…
  • Bashing for stagger on pets for use with a sampire wouldn't be worth it tbh. you'd be better off using macing yourself and just run with a beetle for rune corruption. cause if you level a pet up to add that ability, you'll need taming & lore t…
  • depends on shards, yewgate was hopping for like a 15 years with a few weeks throughout downtime especially when there were hard nerfs to pvp (pub 47), but some shards used brit, bucs (personally, I hated pvp at those gates because of the serverlines…
  • Petra_Fyde said: Interesting.  I don't have a macer, but I do make low level slayer weapons for newbies and returners. Currently I've been making war axe and black staff for macers. Am I making the wrong items?    I'd say they're good for mi…
  • Resist is mainly to prevent mana drain & mana vamp from taking all your mana, which is the leading cause of death in pvm!  -will prevent you from being paralyzed against most mobs as well. My sampires are basically the same template as in the OP…
  • dunno, I like that non-VvV cross-healers get put into stat-loss (if they die) after healing or flagging OJ by attacking. no more 'beneficial acts'.   I'd prefer for non-vvv players to not interfere for the most part.. of course there are always ways…
