Re: UO is about ingenuity

Get a small house for macroing, can't be killed in the small houses. Problem solved. Is this really true? then wtf is people crying about? Its true that the LOS is not an issue in a small house, but some macroing is not safe in a small. If you are a stat-loss red, for example, and are trying to rai...

Re: Getting killed in the middle of a tower?

Also, since it was never mentioned on OSI, it is possible that, while it existed in the demo, it was fixed and then later accidentally re-introduced when something else was changed which is why it is possible on some builds of the game. OSI may not have even written a patch note about it because it ...

Re: Getting killed in the middle of a tower?

Also, as inconvienent as it may be, it appears as if several other types of houses are still secure. So, if you can't find any safe spot inside your tower/keep/castle, you could always get a house to macro in and save the tower/keep/castle for storage/decorations/events. For those who think that thi...

Re: Getting killed in the middle of a tower?

unfortunately we know anything smaller than a keep is not secure to macro magery in. an earthquake can be timed to hit during the delay of an ebolt or flamestrike (no amount of razor scripting can make this 100% secure) macroing stat loss reds back up will simply not be possible in housing if there...

Re: Getting killed in the middle of a tower?

Although I agree that this is a bug and should be fixed, I do NOT agree with those who feel that the people who have been using this tactic should face repercussions in the forms of bans, etc. My two cents.

Re: Getting killed in the middle of a tower?

So I have not tested this out at all, but was wondering if the issue is only with stone structures such as towers/keeps/castles and not with other structures (small houses/etc). Also, I was given the impression that this could be accomplished with spells (Chain Lightning/Meteor Swarm) as well as pur...

Re: Getting killed in the middle of a tower?

I await this bug-fix as well. I do not belive that being allowed to kill players when they are on the 'safe' spots in a house would be at all beneficial to the server and I suspect that it is inaccurate to boot. The reason that it is accurate according to the demo is likely because there was no Razo...

Re: Getting killed in the middle of a tower?

Any idea how this is accomplished? I mean, are they outside the tower throwing purple potions somewhere? Or do they get inside and do it from below? I believe that there are ways to do things like this but I just am not sure how it is done seeing as how the range of purple potions is 2 tiles.

Re: the reveal spell: not era accurate

certain things have been altered in this game without referring to the demo, right? or is that all we go by? I think that the idea is that we have the info from the demo that we know was correct at one point in time. If you can find other info that indicates that it was changed from the demo or oth...

Re: Why do YOU, personally play on T2A, rather than another

This is the UO that I played. I started playing mid 1998 and played through 1999 until I left home for school. It was the ultimate game and time period to me. I returned to the game briefly for about a month in 2002 and it was a different game. There were plusses and minuses to the changes, but it w...
