UO Second Age

If you are knowledgeable with the game mechanics on UOSA then you don't really need wrestling for the t-map char, although it helps considerably.

I use this template for t-maps and I do level 5's on foot, solo.

I prefer hiding b/c you can instantly hide when the chest comes up, combined with the ability to teleport+hide. Some will argue that invis items + wrestling are better, but that is a waste of charges, imo.

I guess I am just too conservative..

there is a small delay when you dig the chest up before even usually insta-targetting mobs attack you (like balrons). i still have not been killed digging up a level 5, even without using invis items. wrestling is also totally necessary if you are going to be using the char as multi purpose (barding), as i do. i find hiding really overrated. as for dungeon chests: invisibility spell

that char only does t-maps i should have mentioned

I went with Wrestling. Mainly because I kept losing survival games. I had hiding before I switched to wrestle and yea both are viable. Now I just spam invis item's because I can afford it.
