  • Petra_Fyde said: As a tamer in the dungeon I discovered that the optimum distance from my pet to cast heals is 10 tiles. At that distance the mob should be at 11 tiles with the pet between you. Also at that distance you can invis and stay…
  • Arnold7 said: If you can cast a summons why aren’t you mounted on one of those mounts you can keep on your backpack?  You could then put enough distance between you and the para that you could invis.  That would be more effective for breaking…
  • Arnold7 said: You have to run on the first level so that if the para is at one end you are at least in the middle of the dungeon before you cast invis and then wait forever to disappear. Sometimes if the para is chasing you and close when you…
  • Pawain said: If we get drops for killing that amount those easy things, we would just have to play a couple of days. All but the SW are 1 or two hit kills depending on if I did double strike or not. popps said: Just as an example, I w…
  • McDougle said: It's just bad luck sometimes I die 5 times before it locks on my pet Is it ? Or is it perhaps the way it has been Designed to work ? To my opinion, the mechanics should be less frustrating on players and more of a reliable…
  • Just as an example, I was just in the 2nd level of Destard, wearing 2,500+ Luck, and after killing 5 Drakes, 5 Daemons, 4 Mages, 3 or 4 serpents and even a Weald Protector and a Shadow Wyrm, I got zero drop.... Sure, they were all regular, no Parag…
  • Mariah said: I believe this issue is already covered in this thread?https://forum.uo.com/discussion/10553/treasures-of-the-fey-feedback#latest Yes, you are right, there is the other feedback thread yet, I felt that this topic deserved a …
  • Seth said: They should  1) Increase drop rate for killing paragons, like the Invasion Generals. 2) Reduce killing power, 3-hit kills. Can up the HP like the Invasion Generals. So more char type can fight and not just tamer bard or Macer. Why…

  • keven2002 said: I don't disagree with you @ popps but that's probably too much to ask for an event in flight because it's totally new untested coding they have to implement.  The fix for this is to simply open up Fel. If someone wants to sol…

  • Merlin said: Overall, many of the changes from a few weeks ago have made the event more feasible from a playability stand point.   The one remaining trouble I seem to find is that just about every other day is that there will just be an eno…
  • McDougle said: I notice the apron not on anyones list. no apron/belt with luck but yay +5 alchemy.  The apron, to my opinion, is more usefull only in PvP and, perhaps, not even there much.... I would have preferred a "crafter's" Apron tha…
  • Jepeth said: The books would probably go for a bit more, but even then there are others out there from the Invasions that are the same specs, just without the fancy titles. I, personally, think the SSI/luck quiver is going to be the thing th…
  • dvvid said: Randomizing the ore and wood didn't kill scripting, but it made scripting less efficient, wouldn't you say?  I'm not talking about a way to completely eliminate scripting, just making it less worthwhile. How did randomizing of …
  • JenniferMarie said: popps said: So, making BY DESIGN these items more readily available in the game, with much less time spent in game from players, would make it pointless for players to want to script, AFK or not, to get them, becaus…
  • JenniferMarie said: People script in every video game ... just saying. [[It's not strictly an UO problem]] Most other games take steps to curb scripting or make it nonprofitable. And no ... Giggles said: Which will lead to the dwindli…
  • Why is there some players who use scripts, Multi-tasking and all that ? Because, at least is my opinion, they can benefit from that and, sometimes, not really only in the game but, also, outside of it with RMTs. Sure, there is PvP players who, tha…
  • Theo said: Rom said: Pawain said: If you think someone is scripting PAGE A GM! Do like others do, get ahead of them and take the eggs first. Make them admit what they are doing in overhead chat.  If you need help on how to ann…
  • Sarkon said: Choices are always good.  But when you have a combat choice or a non-combat choice, the combat choice should yield a much higher drop rate.  This is not the case, as the spawn and drop rates are almost zero in the dungeons lately…

  • AmberWitch said: I have to admit this has always bugged me since stuff started spawning there eons ago. At some point I learned the best thing I can do is just lead everything over the bridge and NOT kill it. That only works if I'm solo or th…
  • Jepeth said: The ankh predates this dungeon event and consideration for it was left out of the event’s design. I think you know that. But we have seen, at least to my impression, that the Developers did adjust the spawn of the Event insid…

  • @TimSt Thanks !! It is unfortunate that it won't work with Pinco's UI.... What I do not understand, is why, at least according to this Post https://forum.uo.com/discussion/comment/76787/#Comment_76787 from @PlayerSkillFTW , to my understanding, …
