  • TimSt said: @ popps the older crabs and lobsters have always weighed 5 stone.  The new crabs and lobsters mistakenly weighed 1 stone. Raising the new crabs and lobsters to 5 stone makes them stack with the old ones. Ah, OK, thank you for …
  • What I do not understand, is why it was decided to raise the (lower) weight of the older ones to match the (higher) weight of the newer ones (if I understood it as correctly, otherwise, please correct me if I understood it as wrong) in order to have…
  • Pawain said: Void Pool: @ Kyronix  Will this new change differentiate from a player hanging back in the void area and doing heals and resses?  These players should be given drops also.  To get to high levels you need support players. An…
  • VS has been horrible to me as well, I am also getting lots and lots of timed out searches and to try to find anything takes a whole lot of time, it is really annoying. Sometimes, a search I had done which timed out, pops up while I am fighting or a…
  • Pawain said: Grimbeard said: Pawain said: You know the players who put out afk toons, knew this from TC.  I hope the revert made them lose drops. They did not reveal it to the devs. UO has so few players when compared to all o…
  • keven2002 said: popps said: Lord_Nythrax said: Everything but the Void Pool sounds like a waste of time as far as drop rates go. The Void Pool has nothing of all this, just wait for the waves and kill, kill and kill some more…
  • Lord_Nythrax said: Everything but the Void Pool sounds like a waste of time as far as drop rates go. The problem with most other activities to collect Pirate Hats, is that they have "dead" times like with the tracking and sailing until on…
  • Talking about the Void Pool, has anyone done it both with a Tamer and pet and a Warrior to see if there is a significant difference in the Pirate Hats received when using the one or the other ? I am not sure whether it is true, but I heard in the p…
  • keven2002 said: I was able to replace my house with a new pre-built keep (went with the Lestat build) after tracking down a few rogue snow tiles that were hidden under a few tiles (wouldn't let me convert until I picked them up). One thing th…
  • Grimbeard said: It's still a keep no change  No matter the number of tiles used up to Design the new, "keep plot size" Customizable home ? Bottom line is, when converting a Legacy House to a Customizable one, a player can use as many tile…
  • I have another question about replacing a Legacy (non custom) house to a custom House. What happens to the total available number of lockdowns ? For example, a Keep has 2,625 lockdowns. Now, with a Legacy Keep all 2,625 Lockdowns are available to…
  • I am not sure if this has been already answered but will EJ characters be able to receive Pirate Hats with this new Event considering that now their use is limited to 1 EJ account per IP address and thus, I imagine, seeing a trail of multiple EJ cha…
  • username said: How is the 'anti-afk' system going to work for this event?  Am I going to get flagged for sailing any parts of the sea? Am I going to get flagged digging up maps? Afk between spawns of the void pool in/outside of the dungeon…
  • Pawain said: Some disposable pet types that can get all the good magics.  @ popps taming revamp has been out 5 years.  Why don't you have multiple pets that can do each useful magic. Cu Sidhe Lesser Hiryu Triton  Reptalon  Equines and Kirin …

  • Kyronix said: The greenhouse is working as intended.  You still must have plants in your backpack or locked down to grow them.  Or use a garden bed like most gardeners these days.  Luck isn’t required, this isn’t a treasures event so things w…

  • Kyronix said: Luck provided by equipment & other items will not have any effect on the drop rate for Plunderin' Pirate Hats. The Potion of Glorious Fortune will increase the drop rate of Plunderin' Pirate Hats in all collection methods. P…
  • Skett said: so the glorious potion doesn't work on the tmaps/ sos chest drop rate of hats at all ? @ Kyronix It all depends whether the Glorious Potion works like Luck (but much stronger) or not, I would imagine. Because, if all that th…

  • I assume that many UO players read the UO official Forums, also new or returning players who might not have an extended knowledge about Taming in UO and, perhaps, they could find useful informations about using Mysticism in Pets as a Magical Ability…

  • It looks an odd weapon... The Spell Channelling would make one think it is intended for spellcasters, also because of the Hit Mana Leech 81% yet, not having the Mage Weapon property, it would force to have Fencing and Tactics skills on the Template…

  • Does anyone have any idea, other then based on personal preference for one or the other type of hunt, which among the multiple ways possible with this new Event will be the most efficient way to get Pirate Hats ? Not all people have that much time …
