Hi :)

Yesterday, thanks to Google, I have found this beautiful server.
I have never seen any free server that is so close to T2A (that have stealed a lot of my time some years ago :)

I have read through the rules and wiki and I need to say that everything looks positive, so I have invited here few friends of mine.

Meanwhile my character is macroing Hiding at home, I am reading forum and.. asking questions here :)

1) How often the my.uosecondage.com is updated?

2) Can I mark a rune in a dungeon? or inside my house?

3) Is Verite weapon more effective than Iron? magic item?

4) Do I need the Taming/Animal Lore to control a Dragon / Mare?

5) Are there any `fast` creatures, on the server, that are running with speed of running mounted player?


Updated :
6) How can I check my hunger level? Skill gain depends on it?

7) Anybody is using archery PvP? I

8) is chance of provocating two dragons the same as provocating two rabbits?

9) How soon the fresh-created char can be deleted?


Updated again : (*unfotunately, as a new player, I cannot check most of these things by myself*)

10) Can I run stealthly? Can I go stealthly while mounted?
11) Where can I check a list of commands, like following : [hunger [where [house
12) How is polymorph spell working? Is it giving more stats/damage?
13) How long the paralyze spell lasts, casted by GM mage with GM EvalInt?

14) Can I cast while holding a staff?
15) How effective Veterinary is? Is it healing ~50-100 HPs, or 50-100% of HPs?

Thank You for answering! :)

hey welcome.
hiding isnt the best to macro inside a house you are friended too, because any character can auto hide inside a house if they are friended.

1. my.uosecondage ?

2. yes inside dung, no inside house

3. colour ingots are only aesthetic

4. yes

5. no, its easy to outrun creatures.

Thank You for information! :) Thats pretty useful.

I have no house or friends here *yet*, but I am pretty sure that this would not be a problem

I am watching my macros progress through this service : http://my.uosecondage.com/player.aspx?id=8135 but it is not instantly updated - once per hour, I think

http://my.uosecondage.com character pages are updated roughly once ever thirty minutes. Players online status is updated every five minutes.

Welcome to Second Age!

If colored ore is the same as iron, I expect noone is training Blackcmithy.. Am I wrong?

The only difference colored ingots have compared to regular is the ability to retain the hue for the armor that is crafted. The only exception to this rule would be the crafted weapons. Having a smithy is very useful for GM status weapons.

6 ) hunger only help replenish stamina and does not affect skill gain
7 ) ARCHERS RULE IN EVENT like Capture the Flag and Double Dom. In group/gank squads, it can be very useful.
8 ) Yup
9 ) Not sure, but I think it is a 7 day period before you can delete a newly created character

As Tek said, food is only for replenishing stamina. :D
