Re: Explosion potion change

Variable timer explodes are easily scriptable. I mean honestly, you just make them look for the "3" to show up and then have the same timer... lol. So, changing them would just make people who script have a slight advantage over those who don't. Scripting explode pots is completely undetec...

Re: Paralyze, Flaging and Murder Counts

After spending about four hours searching Google, I have a new appreciation for the members of the community that research the era. Currently on UOSecondage all you have to do to receive a murder count is to be in war mode and double click someone blue. That is not era-accurate. Up until November t...

Re: This is what i get from the shard in my first few days.

I'd just like to point out that playing a thief was very widespread and viable on OSI. I was in the Trinsic Borrowers guild on Atlantic and split my time on UO pvping on my tank mage and thief pvping.. The difference is that razor allows stealing by type which is beyond lame. I mean even UOP and tha...

Re: Crack down on unattended resource gathering.

Roll eyes and criticism aside you can't possibly expect me to buy the argument that UO IS FOR PVM ONLY. BLACKSMITHS SUPPORT PVM. To clarify, I simply support increasing loot tables on lower level mobs while lowering them on the higher level mobs. I am not advocating letting people afk resource macro...

Re: Crack down on unattended resource gathering.

Cletus, im exactly the kind of person you describe in your above post. every bit of gold i bring in to the economy, as i'm sure many of the farmers do, simply is dumped into housing. which is a gold sink. What are you worried i'm going to do with my wealth? give it to another wealthy guy for one of...

Re: Crack down on unattended resource gathering.

you do relies the difference between attended and unattended? im pretty confident monster stomping is impossible without attending to it. allowing unattended gathering skews the economies of scale. cletus i think you need to re-read this thread http://forum.uosecondage.com/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=6...

Re: Crack down on unattended resource gathering.

Who cares? Resource macroing is not that great here because there are NPC gold limits. More supply = lower costs. There is a whole thread of butthurt vets crying about people being able to GM blacksmithing for cheaper, lol The real problem to watch out for is monster farming. With such a low populat...

Re: House hoarding and abuse of multiple accounts.

Honestly this is the most pointless rule here. Who cares? there are only like 185 - 200 people playing here (going by IPs at peak) so why the heck does it matter if some dude has 20 houses? If he wants to go around refreshing shit all the time let him. IMO those houses are simply wasted money. But y...

Sorry, most people have better things to do than manually work resist. If you want to play that way then all the more power to you as you get steamrolled by ebolts.

Re: No weapon hits while running

I still check back every once in a while to see if this has been changed. Honestly this talk of it being t2a accurate isnt correct. First off theres already some things on this shard that are not identical to the demo. Its cool to pick and choose as long as the players feel that you are doing so in...

Re: A suggestion I hope is considered.

My old records also indicate no town damage as late as Feb of 2000. Emails from enemies talking about taking the fights outside of town for our mages, etc. I don't have any docs on when it started, but it went at least through Feb of 2000. Yes, this is absolutely correct. I had a townie thief named...

Re: No weapon hits while running

Geryon, while you have your thoughts and perceptions on the fun behind a particular mechanic, that still does not change the fact that the mechanic was accurate to the era. Given that fact, and our mandate as a server, this mechanic will stay the way it is, regardless of the opinions of the playerb...
