New Player here!

Hi all! Lake Superior player here, from 1997-2002.

Used to play Hybrid but got sick of neon hair, no real risks and pot throwing. One of the biggest problem on Hybrid is that everyone only camp Balron spots via their tamers, recalling spot to spot, everywhere else is empty, despite having a high population. Hope that's not the case here.

I guess I'll start off the good old fashioned way, mining and smithing! Hopefully by then I'll have an idea what the shard is about!

If anyone's feeling generous or have any tips to share for a newb miner, let me know!

Welcome to UOSA!

Best advice I can give is to join the irc. People are usually very helpful there, just don't tell them where you're at in game because they likely won't be quite as nice in game in most cases. ;)

Welcome to UOSA!

Maybe train hiding and tracking on your Miner char, for security purposes?

Omg...spent all 100 gold on 2 pickaxes, managed to get 30 ore before both broke and smelt the ore 1 by 1, 0 ingots made. lol.

Guess I need to start off with 50 mining skill.
