Garth_Grey said: "I love what Popps has again done to a thread"...said no one ever. FYI @ Kyronix if you're reading this one, Heartwood boards have stopped spawning on any ship. And while you're checking that out, would it be possible to have…

HollowHeathen said: Regardless the game is great and I hope the Devs drop some new content just in general for this game. If you are brand new to Ultima Online, to my opinion, this is the existing game with the largest and grandest amount of con…

Another neat addition as far as plants go, could be adding to Gardening as a resources providing plant, WHEAT.... It would give, of course, Wheat seeds, and, as a Resource, Wheat Sheafs. By the way, wheat sheaves can already now be processed by pl…

keven2002 said: If you want a crafter to be relevant as a main character, you can do so on Siege Perilous. Give it a try. Aside from the fact that Felucca ruleset is not the cup of tea favoured by many players, me included, Endless Journe…

HollowHeathen said: Couldn't you have a few vendors who are not player vendors but like npc vendors and have them sell things like crafting mats or something linked to the auction house as well so when players buy from them the gold is being …

Pawain said: @ popps said: The more that Crafting is simplified, made easy, convenient like having a crafting machine that "does it", the more players will become self-sufficient because also those few players who, now, do not want to bother …

Cookie said: popps said: The problem with a single account being capable of being "self-sufficient", is that it takes business away from those players interested in playing a Crafter full time, as their main and predominant occupatio…

Cookie said: @ popps - Crafters would be back in business if the Devs made their products able to compete with lootable gear.I see no issue with an account being self-sustainable, some players like to play like that (me - we like to be all ro…

Garth_Grey said: I have every crafting station as I"m sure many players also have, I would gladly turn them all in for a single stand alone unit. By the way @ popps this change affects no one that isn't on board with the idea. Those that don'…

Garth_Grey said: Ok hear me out on this and bear with me. First, I'm not looking for an easy button, I've been playing almost since inception and I'm confident in saying I know all of the ins and outs, and I've walked to school in the snow, u…

Lauren said: What does everyone use in place of UOAM and UOAssist? Anyone please? Did you try the Enhanced Client ? http://web.cdn.eamythic.com/us/uo/installers/20101118/UOEnhancedSetup_4_0_10_1.exe It is quite comprehensive with Macr…

TimSt said: Faeryl said: Cache maps have a chance of containing alacrities. There's no guarantee of them being in there. You're likely just having a bad streak. I've done at least two hundred Fel Cache maps and not a single alacrity…

Marge said: Popps, doing it that way will make it hard to get larges or ever fill a large. You need to fill the smaller ones, turn them in, and after EVERY turn in - get a new Bod in order to have a better chance at larges. I personally aim t…

KHAN said: I don't believe Cache level maps have Alacrities. They have a chance to be in levels 1, 4, and 5. I think. Well, according to https://www.uoguide.com/Treasure_Map With the sole exclusion of Felucca Cache Treasure Maps (the OP m…

Marge said: It was set up that way to help the training crafter. It gives you bods that when you fill them will help raise your skill.Are you just getting your 3 a day or are you also remembering to get a new bod for every filled one you turn…
-
Bilbo said: This is from UOGuide " Blacksmiths with skill levels between 0.1 and 50.0 may receive one BOD per hour; between 50.1 and 69.9, every two hours; between 70.0 and 120, every six hours." So the real question is why the higher you go…

Petra_Fyde said: To know whether 4 bods would make more sense you would first have to know the reason and logic behind the current implementation. I don't. Possibly because servers are not available for 24 hours daily, only 23hrs 45 minutes …

keven2002 said: This thread was created based on "wouldn't it make more sense"... so if we take the idea that it would make more sense to cache 4 BODs a day instead of 3 then why can't we add the BOD book lockdown to it? If we are going to ha…

TimSt said: Marge said: I'm also wondering how is it risky. I've used vendors to store my bods for as long as I can remember and have never had a problem. If the vendor runs out of money what happens to the bod book? It goes to the…

keven2002 said: I don't PvP much these days but I think 90% is a pretty far stretch of scripting. I'm not foolish enough to say it doesn't exist but people say "scripting" simply because they don't know how something is done. Like some people…

Mariah said: You can also collect new bods all day long with no limit simply by filling in a small bod and handing it in. Many players use the stand-alone smalls for exactly that purpose. Absolutely, but that practise would not be hurt by…

KeithofNonsense said: you cant stop scripting at all. look into PVP on atlantic, look all the videos they post on discord, youtube and all, 90% of all players are running different clients, different programs, it is all there, available to an…

Marge said: Not for good - scripters are always writing new codes to work around game mechanics. They are called hackers for a reason - they hack into the system. It may stop them on one issue or for a while but they will find another way. Th…

Maximus_Neximus said: Or they could just remove the skills. Templates are cramped as it is. Not a good idea to remove skills for Ultima Online.... Why ? Because the more skills there are, the higher the chances that there might be playe…

KHAN said: I don't even bother to stock my ATL vendor much any more. I generally stocked 120 PS's that were less than the others on VS. I was restocking once or twice a day. Now, lately, I don't even bother. Just an FYI, the current "rumor" …
