a bit of a side note, i think the amount of virtue decay from 'use' of the virtues perks should be reduced to a level where you could more consistently use it & maintain the highest level of said virtue.

I don't recall which publish it was, but I'm pretty sure there was a change that did make it pvm only. it may have been the same one where fish pies stopped having an affect on pvp.That being said, I believe it's intended the way it is now, and tb…

it does happen, just not often, the GM isn't supposed to be visible by all, unless they choose to be, or mistakenly forget to make sure they're hidden. However, I have seen Advisors get poisoned at despise champ spawn from a poison field, they wer…

Gold still has value on siege perilous. fel only, no xfer.... oh yea, npc's don't buy items, that's also a big one.... However, the price of npc's items are driven up because people buy them, every 1000 items bought from the vendor, increases that i…

ok, whatever you say pal. game isn't going to get better adding more garbage on top of the garbage that hasn't been cleaned up first.

Cookie said: I have pvp'd on many pure mage variations without parry, it is not possible. Parry never became free, you are again deluded. The cost is a massive cost in actual gameplay experience. To be playing a mage, that runs out of abilit…

just add a warning message to vendor owners when their gold is within 20% of their limit, and after ~30 days, excess gold will be deleted, and items bought from those vendors should be sold to their respective buyers as it should from any other vend…

Cookie... what the hell kind of mage template do you even use? Mage, Eval-int, Resist, Wrestle, Parry (obv) Med? Alchey/Scribe? and it's the only thing you play? There's more to UO than one outdated template, that still should beat a dexer at lea…

everyone would be more happy if Parry was taken away from mages. then we won't see anyone playing with Parry lol. so many more playstyles would open up again. you need more mana to compensate for the loss or reduction in parry-chance? sense. mak…
-
a hard 'No" on #1, mages are the strongest templates out there, more difficult to learn but far outmatch everything else once you know how to play with magery,eval, resist.... still 3+ skills left beyond that. (I use 'mage weapons' on the vast…

Tram despise is the worst revamp of all the dungeon revamps so far, that being said, some of the rewards are still nice though.. I'd rather the first 2 levels in despise have something else to do in it besides 'possess pets' to fight the boss on …

Mariah said: I don't think that will be the case. The bard skill data we have is that a slayer instrument increases your chance to bard the creature by 20%. It would be interesting to see if the figures stacked while attempting to bard a cre…

fey slayer works on cu's too. honestly, the 'best' versions of these instruments would be a super slayer with an additional slayer under the same group as the super slayer.* for exampleReptile SlayerDragon Slayer(This assumes double slayers stack fo…

Mumbles said: I personally have enjoyed the fruits of their labor so I can appreciate the lack of enforcement by our dev team. I'm sure the people running the bots appreciate the lack of enforcement as well.

Cookie said: I believe, players being forced on foot, would actually raise the excitement level, rather than the current being ganked to hell lameness. An EQ spell, has a much slower cast time than Bolas, and gives a lot of warning unlike m…

It'd be funny for a bit, but it also wouldn't take long for scripts to be updated, so the bots would end up doing better than legit players again. I say that, because in some instances, a 'pirate' npc isn't exactly easy to see when you've got severa…

there's a big difference between your opinion (what you think happened) and what actually happened. you count everything as a dexer unless it's the template you're playing for some reason. most everyone else, would say, If it uses Magery+Eval-…
