How does magery work in towns on this server do some spells not work or are they just weakened?
Is there a thread that has all the different t2a things in a list?
Oh and anyone wanna give me a house? Pretty please with a cherry on top.

False, harm does damage in town.

All damage spells do 1 damage in town.

I never remember this in t2a. What if you are at war with anther guild and have a fight in town... all your spells do 1 damage? This can't be right is it?

there was always spell dmg in town until trammel i thought. Because i specifically remember doing order/chaos wars in brit and glow on pacific server, through out my entire t2a playing time, which was most of it and all spells landed for full dmg. i thought it was changed (on osi) and i assume here too, because people were killed often afk macroing.
when i first started playing here - all spells landed for full dmg. wish faust could post the patches on this info, i'm so bad at searching for it. google < faust

That would be very disappointing to find out spell damage was null in town. What if you were a mage and at war with another guild and a dexxer comes up to you... you would get omgwtfpwned.

There are quite a few townie dexxers here that will not leave town.
Solution:
Recall
OR
Spam paralyze, eventually they will run.
Don't let them kill you, that only further encourages them.

This was a very early addition to UO. Here are the patch notes that cover the change:
10/29/97
- Directly damaging spells cast at players in towns will do minimal damage.

See what we use to do back in the day was simple.. Weaken, poison, hally hit, pre-cast poison, hally hit. Repeat till dead. Easy kills against typical townies

Wow... that really, really sucks. oh well so far there are only 2 things that I don't like(but are accurate to the era) this spell dmg and only being able to sell 5 items to a vendor at a time. I gathered like 200 feathers... needless to say I was there a while.
