All 7 are good advice and you threw in the most important condition for using them. Unless you need it for survival. Healing counts, Bandages or Spells. (I do not know if Life Leech counts, but I hope it does.) HP regeneration does not count. So…

It's a role playing game. You can do whatever you want.

Maybe they will continue to do this for other holidays. The first responses were oh, I'll never have a chance, someone one with 20 accounts will win. So, ya don't enter you won't win. There are lots of great decorators in UO.

That works for an answer, I told LS I was gonna put a pumpkin on my roof and win if they did not enter! Great contest! Congrats to all the entries!

So some shards have winners already?

@mariah question asked and answered more than 1 time. Wonderful info from the developers! Lets not corrupt it with speculation so we can refer to this in the future. Some players hate to party even tho it benefits them in most encounters.

Kyronix said: Party has no impact. For the purposes of the calculations, every player is treated individually. Again - other players and their position on the top contribution list have no bearing on your allotment of points. Thank you f…

So you will accept no answer from anyone. Good to know. I tagged the testers I trust with this stuff in my first reply.

Arnold7 said: Have to wonder how this table’s information relates to drops. Think about a week in I decided to stop killing beetles wholesale and concentrate on the undead. My drop rate got better. Was going to ask if killing beetle parago…

The drop systems have chances to win right away. If it takes 100 points to get a drop, at 50 points you have a % change to go right to a drop. The closer to 100 you get the higher the %. So as I have said at least 5 times. Faster killing yields mo…

Thanks. Fits well with difficulty.

You need to be more specific and show a picture of what you are saying. One issue with removing item descriptions is some items do not show up on VS without them.
-
So basically if we kill stuff we get our earned points and other players do not affect our points. 2 players on one mob may yield less points per player but that time saved means more kills/time. That's all the math I need.
-
Yes 4 players can kill paragons a lot faster then 1 can. So even tho you would get more individual point per kill, you get more kills with more players. So you get more overall points as a team. Think of 4 individuals fighting a paragon solo. The …

Kyronix said: The fame of the monster is only used to calculate how many points are available for distribution. Once that calculation is made, distribution is awarded based on position on the list. Thank you. That will help encourage pl…

No the bards luck will not be the one used in the formula, it is determined by the top damager formula. No freeby points. Volume killing, and luck determine drops. Many times, volume killing yields more rewards. Not all players want to volume …

Grimbeard said: I don't understand why the formula must be top secret people say it's to stop the cheaters but that is clearly not working and only hurts honest players Kill stuff get drops, there is no hurting honest players.

ForeverFun said: We know that drops are awarded at the time a monster dies. Also, in regards to fame, hopefully the fame level of the character plays no role. (fame gets harder to gain as you have more points in it). He has stated it is t…

username said: If the drops are based on how fame/karma is split in parties then an easy test would be to see if you get drops without attacking anything. My bard will get no drops unless he also kills things so he is not getting any of…
-
Thanks. I could not tell if I get more or less drops in a party. Seemed the same to me. It's just sometimes I can go faster without the bard following. Also nice that healing is a verified way to get points.

Any testing on this @Jepeth @Khyro @Violet ? Thanks

I play in beetlescape and lead dragons away so I don't make paragons. I wish the big Tsuki wolf spawn made event mobs.
