  • Higgs,Because I play with a great team who carry me everywhere I have mentioned before, in an enclosed space, with enough numbers to protect you, and if you can field the entire place up, you can get away with it.But as a mage, if you use parry, whi…
  • For me crafters are fairly pointless. I have everything on my Crafter (and many soulstones), and only use him for Taste ID to stack potions I've looted in PvP, and Imbueing to unravel Legendary gear I get in PvM, in the vain hope the parts I unravel…
  • Easier Targetting and Enemy bar options for CC - mainly in PvP. Not much else needs changing. Not interested in EC, even with it's additional features, and terrible graphics, it still does not play right. It's slow and cumbersome to play. The UO eng…
  • Good post. I'll bite.1. I'd like pure mage, and pure warrior to become more effective in pvm.2. Fix is hard. For pure warrior, I believe their healing options are not as strong as other templates, they have bandage healing which is slow, disturbable…
  • Covenant,You are correct ofc in that RPD is mainly usable against Dexxers.But what it shows, is just how effective it is, because there are so many Dexxers, that this is becoming fashionable right now.It sort of also shows how stupid PvP can get.My …
  • Europa guys, it's very active, and ton of fun. (for pvp).
  • Have you ever pvp'd since 97 Covenant? You seem stuck in a dexxer dark age in your viewpoint.I'll invite you to our shard, and we'll set you up a pure mage so you can see what it's like.Or we can give you a shard shield or something, to get a premad…
  • There he is guys, my long lost twin from a far superior universe.
  • 120 Skillpoints in Wrestle/Anatomy.120 Skillpoints in Parry.80 Stat points in Parry.That's a lot of skillpoints (240 - 33% of entire skills template)/statpoints (80 - 30% of entire statpoints) mages are having to invest in defence - I see nothing li…
  • All I know from experience right now, of playing a mage without parry, is it is not possible to match the dexxers. So parry has to add additional benefit, and I've explained all the negatives having parry does to a mage, so many, I don't even like p…
  • Hi Higgs,I would like to see a return of pure warriors myself. I think the big issue for them, is the main skill - healing, which is what you'd expect to be the main healing skill, is so weak in comparison to other methods - hence the rise of bushid…
  • To give an alternative viewpoint;People are taking Parry up because they have to, they are forced to, because short range weapon users are way too strong. Dismount is a huge issue, short range weapon users are now able to do this entire operation so…
  • To re-summarise what I posted on Stratics.The EJ concept, and the game entry ideas and quest organisation look ok to me, it will hopefully do what it is intended to do.Happy the Devs listened re Invis/Teleport items.I personally won't go on test cen…
  • I'd like more for thief's also.Problem with deco items, is thieves fill the market very quickly, and they become worthless.Problem with stuff limited on a timer, is it becomes pretty scripted, the hardcore learn the timer, and will always get there …
  • Good result for you guys, I'm glad, you are a decent opponent. Thank you Mesanna for sorting them out, they add a lot to the game.
  • Truthfully, I cannot be bothered with this debate anymore, I've done it for too long.Mages are gone for me, and I am pretty much.I'll sit here doing my bods, and watch you go on about great diversity in PvP and how great mages are. Whilst 80% of tem…
  • The_Higgs_1 said: There is no need for 30 SDI mages.  Magery is still the best in PvP and always will be.  It could be put back to 15 SDI and still be the king template to play.   The HP cap hasn't gone up so why does the damage cap need to…
  • Garth_Grey said: Did you seriously just say that the EC is the root cause of half of UO's imbalances ? Did you burst out laughing as you typed that nonsense ? As a pure PvP mage on classic client vs an army of enhanced client dexxers ri…
  • It's a rogue, he plays like a rogue. I have fun playing the content I listed, and he is designed for it.Why are you trying to dictate what makes a good, purposeful character or not? Define a character that has purpose in your eyes?Remember, I am bot…
  • The_Higgs_1 said: Who is this "most of the vets" crowd that think its balanced?  If its balanced why is there no pure melee templates being played at all?  Why is taming non-existent?  Why is either poisoning or parry on just about every temp…
  • Point 1.It's not just the Rich who have this advantage - EC players do also - they carry 2-3 suits and different skillpoint suits, ie. different sets of jewels to switch instantly when required.I still don't believe your suggestion would help so muc…
  • 1. Dismount. (It was ok at bola stage pub 16 only - not beyond). Should be removed from game.2. EC. Should never have happened. Should still be reversed.3. Trammel. Should never have happened. Should still be reversed.
  • I'll back this up.Need to do something for the pure mages.I've lost interest in PvP now, just craft or solo pvm these days in Fel, for no reason.
  • No problem. We have quite a few new players now, certainly seen an upsurge.Lets keep playing all the content, and bond as a team - good luck, and hopefully you enjoy it.
  • Just a few personal comments to add to the bits said.I think the BOD system is fine, I enjoy it, it's like the Taming system - one of the few systems that works ok. My only issue, would be for Crafting itself to be boosted, to give the final BOD rew…
  • Quite frankly I don't rate him.It's easy to edit a video to produce a certain result.A few of those fights, he is against our guys, and they can wipe the floor with him all day long, then when they chill at the end, he pulls that move off (says it w…
  •  Garth_Grey said: Actually I'm thinking that if EJ brings back enough players, there's a slight chance the CC will get dropped since the revenue from EJ might make up for the loss of revenue in CC players that have threatened to quit if it…
  • Fair comments Ivenor, I like them.I'm the same when it comes to ranting.
  • I don't think going back to Static is a good solution, having fixed spots got rid of the entire point of it once people had all the runes marked in their books - which I do also, and I still have the books.I think Mining seems to be working fine, I …
