UO Second Age

I love it here...I'll be playing more now that I decided that Shroud of the Avatar sucks. I'm a loner anyway so I don't care what the population is. The current administration is great, but I agree the server took a hit a few years back when the admin pulled a vanishing act and Telemons bots were r...

I can tell you why I quit.. I suck. I guess that falls under the category of "just couldn't cut it" ? That's not to say I can't stand the harshness of the game and the pvp, I LOVE pvp. But after 20 years of not being good at a game, I get sick of dying, I just can't compete. But UO for the...

Is that really a Nazi AT-AT?

I doubt anybody really cares, but I have read so much of this thread I feel I need to add my two cents, especially as a newer player, maybe it is of interest to someone one of the things that drove me away from playing hardcore every day to logging in once in a while for a half hour to farm a little...

We used to use a map for Darkfall that was done using Google Maps API. Was really nice, had all the spawn locations, towns, mines, etc. all able to be toggled on or off. VERY useful in fact I almost never played the game without having it up on my other screen.

I believe the gems encrusted in the skin of the monsters can be pried out for those wishin to put in the effort. Use caution when pulling the gems as you might be quickly surrounded pulling one at a time. Oh my god.. I never even though to try skinning one of those bad boys... Can't wait until they...

Do they drop anything cool or is it just a lot of evil in one place waiting to be killed? I have acquired a lot of diamonds and other gems off of them. Some of them seem to be just the regular loot you would get off any similar mob type, but like I said.. definitely a good chunk of gems dropped fro...

There is more than strictly the patch notes to go on. For example, we have set the damage delay for most spells to be 1 second after they are actually targeted. This is something that wasn't actually changed, but has always worked this way (and still does for all spells except lightning which was c...

Could the recent chain of gem encrusted villains attacking our graveyards have something to do with the mysterious appearance of raw fish steaks on every doorstep across the land?!

To make this shard absolutely perfect, take out Razor. Take out macroing. Too many people macro, its become a problem. Reg gathering, resource gathering (people do it, and just dont get caught), macroing hours of the red, macroing every skill known to man, etc; It kills the game. I love this shard,...

Having taken the time to answer questions from new players (in game and on the forums) I've been asked the same question a few times. "500+ players? Where is everyone?" I then take the time to explain that this shard is filled with people who like to play the game and aren't bank squatter...

Stop afk macroing things like Fishing and reagent-purchasing to make money. Stop using 50 dragons at a time and clear out your stable to something reasonable. Stop hording houses of no significant value. There are less players now than there were 4 years ago, but somehow the entire map is full of h...

I think you're missing the point...

Nothing. Seems to be the absolute approach thus far. Sad, isn't it. Yet I know there's been plenty of new players in the last couple of weeks alone.. So "nothing" seems to be working slowly but surely. I personally have been voting up the shard every day on all the sites listed on the mai...

Hahaha, I double clicked a chest and blew up, revived, came back, tried to double click the same chest, but apparently got a different one, and died again. Then I came back and snatched a chest and hid, waiting for everyone to clear out. After a couple minutes of waiting around some guy came back an...
