UO Second Age

The animation will follow the user for at least a half second, around obstacles, through gates etc. On the demo, it is impossible (I challenge any of you to do it) to throw the pot just before exploding at someone. You can either throw it a second early, where it lands at their location, or it blows up in your face.

Proposed corrections to Explosion Potions are on Test Center for evaluation.

This topic was dead for a few months until I linked it the other day...and now it's on test? lol I plan a whole revamp and update of the "To-Do" list.

EDIT: Did you mean Test center is up now? I can't connect.

do exp pots suck now?

Try it on test, they seem to be ok but I would be very interested in your thoughts Tron.

nah there's a new delay on them theyre basically the same and its clear that hemperor just sucked at using them on the demo

It seems to me that the differences although slight in terms of usefullness are correct and should be made live as soon as possible; however I really was looking forward to more feedback in this thread on the change, just to verify that they are working properly.

What was exactly implemented?

A simple damage delay like on spells that is forced after the 3 second timer that can't be dodged or what Hemperor was talking about?

The former and not the latter.

Try it on the demo instead of talking out of your ass, I realise that chain pot throwing may be your only viable strategy, however it shouldn't work according to the demo

oh right, you beat me one time out of what...5 duels at least? So you are 1-4 against me, your guild mate MIKE owes me 100k for getting his ass kicked so much by me (never forget the 1v2 tourney loss to me).

Typical UO morons, hold on to ONE SINGLE WIN (I challenge you to bring up another)...Where's my 100k MIKE? Why do you lose 80% of the time to me "Pro"?

Pro owes me a 100k for his 1v1 loss and an additional 100k for each member that was owned in our 3v3...

He vows to get revenge beating me at least once in his lifetime.

explosion pots are no harder to use than before. just have to release the potions a bit earlier now to get the damage to sync with spells.

infact it actually makes it easier to sync them with damage in hally/spell combos since you have time to run in for the swing before the delayed damage lands.
