Reagents on the ground in Moonglow

[a troll]

Hi y'all!

I remember a ton of reagents being on the ground in Moonglow. There's not very many on this shard, and since this shard is pretty accurate I'm wondering if this might have been a shard-by-shard thing.

I played on both Lake Superior and Siege Perilous in particular, and I remember newbies would stand around and pick these things up off the ground. Siege Perilous was a bit of a 'late T2A' shard, but I still remember the huge reagent spawn being there.

Or is my mind playing tricks on me? Did this actually come later?

The reason(I assume) that there are not regs on the ground everywhere to reduce strain on the server, this seems to be a RunUO default. It is not as difficult to acquire regs here because of the lower population and the way the vendors work, doubling their stock when the run out. You can, at times, buy several hundred of any given type.

One problem with this instance is that OSI used server boundaries. It is well known that a boundary ran through Moonglow. All spawned creatures and reagents would hit the boundary on both sides more so than anywhere else. Server boundaries would tend to collect many creatures and regs. RunUO does not use server boundaries unlike OSI.

I'll take a look at the reagent spawns on Verity Isle. Thanks.

Is that why this happened! Cool information

That's really interesting. Cool.
