i have some questions

[Gert]

hi , i'm new and i have many questions . i premise that i always wanted to play ultima online on a free server but wherever i went the shards offered always a personal interpretation of uo and , in my opinion , it wasn't uo but another game . when i found this server i was truly happy because finally i had individuated a server that offered ultima online up to the second age expansion that is for me the best uo . now , i have many questions : 1) i don't know how many skills were in the t2a era but i saw a list of these in the site of uo gamers divinity and they were 42 while in second age the list of the skills includes 50 skills , also spellweaving that was introduced with mondain's legacy : so why there are 50 skills ? perhaps some skills where invented and introduced by the developers of this server ? or it's simply a bug done by the use of the patch 5.0.8.3 ? 2) was in the t2a expansion the possibility to have a ship and to go with it across the sea ? if yes , is this feature in second age ? and is it possible to swim in ultima online ? 3) are the lost lands in the shard ? i know that these lands were present in t2a , but i don't see lands named lost lands in the big map when i create a new character . last and less important question : is it possible in second age to play minigames in-game like as chess , cards , backgamon ecc... ? thank you very much for all the answers , i arrived on this server and i truly hope that it offers a really good game , thank you

1) i don't know how many skills were in the t2a era but i saw a list of these in the site of uo gamers divinity and they were 42 while in second age the list of the skills includes 50 skills , also spellweaving that was introduced with mondain's legacy : so why there are 50 skills ? perhaps some skills where invented and introduced by the developers of this server ? or it's simply a bug done by the use of the patch 5.0.8.3 ?

The client may list skills that you can't actually use or gain. For example, spell weaving may appear on your list but its not a skill here. This server has the same skills that T2A had, no more, no less.

2) was in the t2a expansion the possibility to have a ship and to go with it across the sea ? if yes , is this feature in second age ? and is it possible to swim in ultima online ?

There are boats and you should be able to sail them to T2A using the serpent pillars (though I can't confirm this is actually functional as ive never done it) No, you can't swim, never could.

3) are the lost lands in the shard ? i know that these lands were present in t2a , but i don't see lands named lost lands in the big map when i create a new character

Yep, a new character can't start in the lost lands but they do exist, you just need to use one of the entrances to get there.

is it possible in second age to play minigames in-game like as chess , cards , backgamon ecc...

Should be possible, but again, I can't confirm because I haven't done it here.

thank you for the answers , i have 2 other question : in the game there are skills like lumberjacking and mining that serve for the harvesting of the resources , is there any skill that allows to harvest mushrooms and plants and perhaps use them as reagents for potions ? and does the lumberjacking skill allows to cut down trees and not only harvest logs ? thank you very much

there are no skills that harvest reagents.
reagents can be found in scarce amounts through out the land, and some monster loot, its best to just buy them from npc...

lumberjacking only allows you to harvest wood, with each 10% giving you a extra 10% to succeed at collecting the wood.
