@KroDuK I'd love to be incorrect -- however, I still don't think the shards would fill-up if they were able to wave a metaphorical want to get rid of all cheating using illegal 3rd party applications. The 10,000 subs you're hypothesizing is simply t…

Kyronix said: We've identified the issue and will be publishing a hotfix shortly. Keep an eye on UO.com! lol. Seems antithetical to the title of the thread

Bottom line: The very small dev team took a measure to single to those using illegal applications that they can be detected. This is probably just a step in the so-called "war" on cheating. While I agree more action should have been taken sooner, th…

@AtomicBetty haha I would say a lot of that would be unpopular, but certainly worth spit-balling. I think games that have leveling systems make such a change far easier as you just add higher levels which make past elite gear obsolete. For Ultim…

I had a thought of adding Pagan as a new magic, with a focus on summoning. Just a stab in the dark: First Circle Spells Summon Vermin – Summons a swarm of rats to harass foes.Soothe Beast – Temporarily calms an aggressive animal.Minor Earth Bind – …

Pawain said: For a new race they should test it in a season of NL and then bring to prodo. Could make orcs only wear orc, ring, chain or bone armor. From elf armor they found we don't like race specific armor. (Circlets) Not a bad idea.…

MacroPlanet said: NL was kind of an expansion in a sense. If BS continues on that path, we should get a new version every year. Time will tell. I think this is a good point. As for me, I'd like them to make orcs a playable race. While I'm…

I think the idea of a retro shard sounds decent but would be a waste of resources. As others have stated, these retro servers do not appear to be the "popular" ones that are out there. People tend to want new content and depth. As much as I have ros…

I think the main allure is it's a mountable life leech pet. Also, the stats when you claim it are always the same at its base, so no worrying about RNG.

On Catskills, I've noticed the return of a few stacked groups of throwers/archers/sampires that run through town. A global chat argument that they were just using the auto follow didn't really match what I witnessed. Now there may be more, as I don'…

I personally think the old drops should remain the same. I agree with making more recipes to turn old doom arties into something more useful. Also, I agree making more useful paragon rewards would be nice. @Pawain I think generating stats for a ne…

Can we stop with the clickbait titles to threads? It is absolutely akin to gambling to buy these totems to increase your chances at special hued mares. What do the two slots sell for? You may be better off trading sanctum rewards for one.

The addition (don't know how long ago -- maybe years) of blocking dismount in combat in the classic client was great. As another poster said, I do think peaking at what the private shards do that is popular is a good idea. I can't imagine the dev …
-
I do think that powerscrolls should stay, largely, in their current form. There has to be an incentive to take the risk. If not, players can purchase said scrolls from vendors/chat. Now I don't think they should become shard bound, however. I say …

Since the last patch, I have yet to see anyone obviously botting - no stacks of toons acting like a weed eater through towns. I've only even run the original UO client, so nothing has changed for me (I'm a fairly casual player now, not even setting …

My favorite holiday memory is when I was a kid playing UO, my two brothers and I shared an account. It was Christmas day and someone PKed my younger brother who was mining near Minoc. I logged on and got sweet, sweet revenge. My other favorite hol…

While Sampires are clearly powerful, essentially everyone has the option to make one. With this invasion portion of the event, I've used a tamer, archer, sampire, and thrower. I prefer an archer of the group. I'm hardly a "hardcore" player anymore, …

@Mariah Do you have any insight when they'll be re-added? I'm assuming with the new additions with tomorrows past -- but we know what they say about assumptions.

"Potion of Glorious Fortune Enhance your fortunes while participating in the Treasures of the Shattered Sanctum!"Confirmed on the homepage. @Whitewolf I don't see it currently in the store, for some reason. I think it's normally under MISC.
-
And to be clear -- I mean specifically with the invasion drop rate.
-
Yeah, seems like apply the t-map rules regarding chests to these chests would offer a fix. Still, I hope they also increase the spawn.
-
I ran around on Origin to check out town invasions (I wasn't actively playing for those, except the very old ones). It seems - and I understand it's reported to be dynamic - that it could do with a higher spawn rate.
-
First, I request I actually get one as a drop -- but yeah, I think your request to make it animated makes sense.
-
Also, Treasures of the Archlich was in 2022. That's 2 years of having a super item that was huge in value. While I play Cats, the last set I saw for sale yesterday was asking something like 500 million gold. If they pause them again for a year plus,…
