Re: UO the way it was - fun - Is it here?

I've seen this argued and discussed on these forums before, and while I am sympathetic and went through a similar realization, it very well boils down to the fact that the powers that be put down a concrete ideal for what this server is trying to achieve. You've already stated this stuff yourself so...

Re: Play style vs gaining new players

If anything I would guess there isn't enough pressure on PvM'rs. I've only been back for the past few days trying out the new mechanics but I haven't run into great levels of resistance while hunting and that is despite the fact that I hunt on my mage who is in an o/c guild, so I don't only have to ...

Re: Play style vs gaining new players

On the concern about refreshing a mounts stamina by dismounting. There is no doubt this is an accurate OSI feature and all appearances are that it was an intentional feature. We know that it was in pre-T2A as we have the code; and I believe we also know when it was taken out post-Era, although I do...

Re: Do you enjoy the pvp mechanics of uosecondage?

After completing my character I was underwhelmed, and it is a shame because UOSA is great in other areas.

Re: check out who is #1

Asherons Call shoulda been #1, and DAoC #2. UO shouldn't have made the list because it's too epic to need reshaping. I came here to say this. Perhaps a different game borrowing heavily from UO's ideas would be cool but UO itself is probably best left alone, 2d graphics and all. AC would be great if...

Re: TOWNIE ACTION

I'll have to find some time and inclination to roll a townie. I think I played a macer during that era, break them shields, you know? Something of a brit east vs. west sort could be fun if you're looking for two side town fights with some sort of structure while allowing strangers to join up yet not...

Re: Join the Farmer strike.

What annoys me is when one of those griefers shows up with their "farming character" sees his spot is already occupies then jumps on another client and brings his red or a his red and three others to try and PK you. This is more of an annoying everyone has 3 clients running at the same ti...

Re: It's been an fun experiment...

To survive a PK encounter do these: As mentioned above, carry potions. Heal/Refresh but I'd also add gstr. A strategic way to use them is to wait until the pks load up a bigger spell then chug a str/heal so that you are +20hp, forcing them to either drop their sync in order to weaken you or to go ah...

Anti-PK, O/C guilds?

New player here who might be looking to get into some anti-pking and o/c fights. I was wondering if there were any guilds in existence of this type for I was murdered quite a bit while farming up some cash and I'd like to put some fear into them murderers, or at the very least make their time farmin...
