Arnold7 said: Think the worlds you have now are fine. A place for pvp players, a place for pvm players, and for those that like both, the ability to go back and forth. Do not really think you need a new shard. There are already plenty of pl…

Nice write up @Jepeth. While I don't agree with all of it, I do agree that there likely won't be a 1 to 1 replication of "classic" UO because as you said very well; a fond UO memory to you might not be to me. I might be taking the NewLetter out of…

I also think it's weird that there have been 150 views of this thread at this point and only 14 votes. So either there is some major options I forgot or not enough people care about the legacy shard to even cast a vote.

I do think the Legacy shard (depending how the do it) might be a bad thing for the UO store. You don't really get the same nostalgia by buying a set of Tokuno dyes (they didn't even exist at that point) or any of the other 100% vanity items from the…

I personally think they need to at least do away with 1 of the 2 (I think they are set on the consensual thing). There seems to be a strong majority of people who would basically want candy land remade on this classic shard (from what I've read el…
-
My thoughts are that for me to want to leave my home shard to play a new (temporary) shard that is for "nostalgia" it would truly need to be like it was 20 some years ago (no insurance and it's a free for all). That means the only safe zones are in …
-
Without going too much further off the housing topic for Legacy (I think there should be a size limit) I think it will be focused at new/returning players. The mission of the whole announcement leading up to it was to "bring the largest audience t…

Urge said: keven2002 said: @ Urge - I see that the temporary thing is one of the most commented on things people touch on (most dislike it). I'm also struggling to see how a "classic" type shard with "classic" templates & gear wi…

@Seth - I think there are a lot of details that need to be worked out but I don't know if they are really going to push the new graphics piece given that, as you said, there are so many other things that need to be cleaned up or fixed and we only ha…
-
I agree @Bilbo since Legacy seems to be more of a shard for new/returning players to kind of get their feet under them before a shard wipe; I don't think there should be large homes like castle/keep because after all they will only be temporary. Ano…

Zed said: The main thing is that other shards develop too, and if we will have at least something listed in the first post, then I do not mind. This pretty much sums it up for me. @Kyronix - as long as prod shards are not completely b…

I agree with you @Marge Maybe we are in the minority here but I already have a crafter and I did the whole building up from nothing and while it was quite the experience (and kind of a PITA) to mine my own ore and chop my own wood to build him; I …

@DJAd - What was your luck at when getting these items as loot (if I may ask)?

ZekeTerra said: I just hope that they continue to work on the Production shards while they do this. From the sound of it, the new shard is going to get most of the attention from the 6 person team with a handful of Champ Spawns/Treasure …

Here is the rock and hard place the Devs put people in when creating a temporary "classic" shard: I'm a veteran: Let's say I'm looking for a change so I see this shard and I will try it out for nostalgia reasons. I start from day 1; assuming that …

Petra_Fyde said: Why would any vet create a character on the Legacy shard? Maybe to mentor and recruit newer players for their shard and/or guild? At the end of the season of legacy they need to choose a shard to move to. Some people will wa…
-
Yea I kind of thought the same thing. Shard bound items are designed to keep people on that shard... they literally just made a quest item shard bound when they planned on creating a new shard which will inevitably pull people off some live shards. …

Petra_Fyde said: Victim_Of_Siege said: I think I am starting to get the idea of this shard. It appears to be totally for new players to build their characters without having to also figure out how to buy the things they need since they…
-
The other thing that will come into play for the character transfer after the shattering would be how many chars can we transfer (it sounded like we would have more than 1 available (but maybe not 7). In the event it's 3 (room for a mage/warrior/cra…
-
Well this is a first... I actually agree with @popps on this. It's a real concern from my end as it seems the team was super excited about their "new baby" which might leave the live shards feeling like the stepchildren (since this Dev team didn't c…
-
One question I'd have about the transfer off of Legacy would be is it free or do people have to buy a transfer token? @Kyronix ??
-
I wonder if the Devs are reading everyone's guess and laughing at how far off most of them probably are
-
@popps - Given your extreme lack of UO game play knowledge and just overall understanding of things I take pretty much anything you say with a grain of salt. Also to set the record straight, my post is not my point of view, but actual fact as I actu…
-
@Kyronix - While I see your theory, I do not agree with it for two reason that I will list below. You previously said: I disagree this would be incentive enough to play on a lower pop shard. You are relying on the assumption that an item can hav…
-
Very good point @MissE. I will only be doing this quest on my "home" shard that I live on because there is no need for decoration (shard bound) on the other shards I play when I'm looking to get away from the high population shards. One could also …
-
I'd agree with @Pawain. Also like you said if we are talking about most weaps (that you will actually want to use); a NPC weapon has enough points to do the trick.
-
That's a bit disappointing to hear but I do appreciate the honest feedback! Thanks for responding!
-
@Kyronix - I saw the release notes today for the new shards and saw there were a few teaks to the Black Gate event (step in the right direction) but it still only looks like 1 quest per character. That said, with the event having 8 rewards (and th…

**Update - @Mariah gave me a raw ginseng so I could complete this part of the quest (Thank you). This should still be addressed though in the event someone can't complete the quest in 24 hours after picking the root.
