Crafter friendly?

[qtip]

Hey! I'm a long time UO player. I like the crafting and pvm side of uo; but I enjoy that danger of knowing others want my life and my ingots . PvP was always something I engaged in only if provoked. I often found myself forming alliances with Pks who would frequent my spots. Either trading goods or paying up in return for my life. Anyways... I realize that the server is small. To me this could be good or bad as someone looking to make a living/interact through the player economy. So is this server right for me? So far everyone I've seen was just macroing

probably cause of ur time zone or something cause during the daytime hours there are people EVERYWERE u can find them ;D mining is good and the occasional pk will stop by.
YES this shard is def for you.

We could always use more shops/vendors. I see plenty of dexxies runnin around wearing GM colored/normal armor so i'm sure they'd eat it up. I haven't seen any GM made heavy xbows yet so a bowyer would be nice as well. Either way, if you run a good shop i'm sure you'll make some gold & enjoy it

There doesn't seem to be any demand at all for leather or studded armor, so tailors, I suspect, are not so great.

Sounds good. I'm giving the place a try; just mining/LJ so far.

I wasn't planning on making a tailor first anyway. Bow fletching doesnt sound bad, having a niche is always good. Any other advice? I'm sure there are mules out there already, but what else seems to be in good demand? If I stay long I'll want to keep my crafter occupied. Maybe even make another duelist haha.

weapons and armor is always in demand. I tihnk those are the things that people lose the most. Best part about uo is you can actually lose stuff so there is always a demand for any goods.

Imo the old style craft menus, while accurate, are anything but crafter friendly, in fact, they are crafter annoying and hence, why I abandoned my crafter.

It is our hope that each player will not have their own crafters so that there is a real market for GM made goods.

Thanks

Skill gain is slow... but the nostalgia is still strong again. So far the menus aren't bothering me. I played another free shard years ago and I remember Razor.

Welcome to the shard!

Probably the most popular shopping area is the strip mall N of Vesper. That may not be a bad place to set up a vendor at.
