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…

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…

VvV flagging rules are better than factions, I think that's literally the only thing though. was it really easier for the devs to make VvV, instead of fixing the issues with factions? I mean the issues with points essentially being duped & fact…

I'd drop focus for resist with LMC & Mana leech on a weapon you won't have mana issues. and yes to a better shield, FC 1 SSI 10% anything else is a bonus. I generally use reforged wooden shields with 5 Hci, 25 DI & 10 SSI, then imbue Fc1 …

"It's a TROLL", that is all... i guess the only thing that makes... any sense at all.. would be that each letter used in the search criteria is on the fencing scroll? I haven't had that experience myself, but I haven't used VS for anything lately, …

I agree with the OP mostly.... at least when it comes to 'dev bashing' it's mostly on things they should be in control of, bug fixes, cheating, repeat events (after NL, I'd expect to see different types of events), the UO.com mainpage going down, d…

skree must use 'healing stone' (mysticism) if it makes the healing sound over and over while poisoned, only the first 'use' of the stone would be a noticeable amount healed anyway.. repeat uses of healing stone, heals only a few HP (the hp bar may n…

resisting spells reduces the amount of stats you lose from curse (not many npc's cast curse), feeble, weakness & clumsy as well as reduces the duration of debuffs. you become immune to paralyze (spell) from anything with equal or less eval-int …

not a fan of that.. I'm also not a fan of casting focus... at least not in pvp. I do feel like (and I've posted it before) Casting Focus, should spawn in increments of 5-25% (like LRC, as well as the cap 12% be increased to 100%) But, should only w…

I think the only Pay-to-win item in UO (currently) would be the "Forged Metal of Artifacts", -only because there are certain items that have a 0% success chance to enhance without it.I'm sure there are varying degrees of opinion on it, especially si…

Prices haven't been low since like 2004. when you could realistically farm enough gold in a few hours of grinding to buy most items. now if you don't sell items to other players you won't be buying much of anything from anyone.
