Went to sea with a Newb Fisherman at 61.2 skill to see if i can pull up some sea serpents .. after 3 hours minutes of fishing and 7.3 in gains i have seen NO Sea Serpents.
also .. i had my GM fisherman with him killing the Water Ellies, in Party, I notice they are not Sharing Fame while in Party. is this not suppose to happen?

Re: Fishing
sharing fame? when has that EVER been in game?
you can say "i honor thee" and give someone your fame/karma but as for automatic sharing.. no
screw serpents.. why has the MIB rate gone down? im not gettng nearly as many as a few weeks ago.. and theres been no mention anywhere afaik about the rate being adjusted. proof or increase rate again!

Re: Fishing
You don't pull up sea serps until 80 skill. But there are sea serps randomly spawning. I'll see about increasing. It's a big big ocean.
There's been no reduction in MIB's chance.

Re: Fishing
MIBs do seem a bit more harder to fish up lately....
Of course, that might be because I've been playing alot more casually than I have been. Ive been fishing an hour here, 30 minutes there for the past week or so. Haven't fished up an MIB in a few weeks, I think. But then again, like I said, I haven't really been TRYING to get them.
Is there a "global" Inventory limit of SOS/MiBs? Like, what would happen if one group of characters had like a few hundred or so of them? Would that have any affect on the rate of MiB fishups?

Re: Fishing
Its a stright chance on every pull, there's no global pool, although that's a neat idea

Karma/fame shared to party members after UO:R and the rules varied over time. I believe the party system is actually a product of UO:R as well based on the UO:R pub notes:

Interesting cure pot notes there, suggesting a lesser cure could easily cure DP pre-UO:R.

Re: Fishing
yeah, my MIB rate has diminished as well. I was averaging about 2-3 per hour and now get 2-3 a day (6 or so hours fishing time). I have run the same line for weeks and just recently moved my route with no change in MIB rate...from the sounds of it, I guess bad luck for 3 weeks going now
Re: Fishing
Something may have changed unintentionally when we fixed the serp pull. Looking into it. Thanks for the reports

Re: Fishing
I had something strange happen when I was doing MIBs yesterday, that is in the middle of pulling up shipwreck items, I fished up another MIB. Twice.
Maybe that's normal, just thought it was strange cuz it'd never happened to me before.
Did MIBs get added as a shipwreck item, or was it just a normal fail on fishing that caused it?

Re: Fishing
I've had that happen a few times myself. Only thing I can guess is that when you have a SOS in hand and are fishing up the treasure the MIB/Serpent spawn was on a different spawn list vs. fish and the MIBs override the treasure spawns so you still have a chance of pulling up a MIB while pulling up a treasure.
If that made sense....

Re: Fishing
Aye. You will only pull up shipwrecked items in place of fish, you still have a chance to pull up other special items.

Re: Fishing
Why does that MIB make reference to Sunday night sporting events? That doesn't make sense. The other thing that doesn't make much sense is the fact that you won't pull up a serpent on failures before 80 skill.
