Re: death match

Do you then count damage healed towards that calculation?

Re: Rewards for Accnt age? (other than trophie systm.)

Before finding UOSA, I actually started a free trial on the live UO servers. The crazy amount of bad changes (IMO, of course) the game has undergone was turning me off. When I found out how many maximum skill points I would forever be missing due to account age, I cancelled the trial.

No thanks.

Hah, how'd the blade spirit boomerang on you?

And why wasn't someone recording? This sounds like it would have been hilarious to watch.

Re: Noob PvM needs help...

start shame with earth elementals they carry 400 gold aprox. and can give you a great start. not many pks come there either. kidding, that is where i used to noob pk the most. It used to be a huge PK hive on OSI, but agreed with TwoTon, it's rarely used by PKs or even other players here. Scorpions ...

Re: help with early gameplay please!

Stealing is somewhat complex and far more complicated than I care to go into here. There are threads further down in this forum about stealing and how to train it. I don't think I'd recommend it to a truly new player. Find things? Like what? Money? Magic weapons? Bear meat? Animal taming is done usi...

Re: Patch 45 - June 13, 2008

Either way i have fun playing here... But i would just like it to be stable in one decision or not. Same. unfortunately i already did to compensate cast times.. so think i'm taking some time off, don't feel like switching out yet. And same. You think it will take quite awhile to decide one way or t...

Re: Fisher Template?

^^^

Definitely. Only reason to go for a fisher is if you really want a bazillion "recovered from a shipwreck" boxes and paintings for your house.

Re: Noob PvM needs help...

Definitely start on something easier than Destard. You might find Resist, Wrestling, or Eval Int better than Hiding, but your mileage may vary. What is your magery at? Once you can reliably lay down Blade Spirits, it becomes much easier to tackle harder areas. The bottom of Covetuous is a good place...

Re: Fisher Template?

Resist isn't too bad to have. Don't need to GM it or anything, but the occasional Water Elemental might surprise you once in awhile with a double E-Bolt.

Re: New Template For Cast Time Changes.

With cast times in the old format, I don't see this template faring any better against hybrids than a standard dexxer though. Probably fine for open field, but in no-magic-items and no-pot tournies, you're probably in for some pain.

Re: New Template For Cast Time Changes.

It's just my opinion, but I wouldn't ever make a PvP template that didn't have 100 STR. People lead with Weaken in 1v1 for a reason. Plus you're throwing away extra bonus damage. Besides the stats, I like that template with the extended cast times (very similar to what I was building). Unfortunately...

Re: Spell Delay problem

Bahhh, now my character is in limbo between a dexxer and mage and the spell timers are back to hybrid-land supremacy. That's what I get for retooling before waiting a week to see if the change stuck I guess. Are spell cast times going to stay at the "old" version for sure? Waiting to know ...

Re: help with early gameplay please!

First off - what city did you start in? Britain is a good choice - lots of players there. To purchase from vendors, type: "vendor buy" next to them. A good way to start out getting some combat skills and starting money is to fight zombies and skeletons around the various graveyards outside...

Re: Patch 44 - June 12, 2008

Retooling as well. Want to at least try out a dexxer in open field and see how it goes. Keeping Magery and Resist, so it'll be pretty easy to revert back if need be.
