UO Second Age

Hi all

I just recently purchased my first house and was carrying my house key with me when I died. I thought if you had your house key on a keyring it wouldn't be lost if you died, but I quickly found out that wasn't true. Can anyone advise if there is anyway to carry your house key without losing it upon death? Thanks in advance for any help.

nope, there is not.

Well if you must run around with your key on you and you lose it i think you can just change the locks and poof..you get a new key. A more common solution is to make an alt character on another account and leave him in the house to open the door for you, that way you never need to have the key on ya. Ive also seen people, who are not macroin in the house, just unlock the door; lock the key down in the house and set up a table wall to stop people from going more than one tile into the house. There are also a few people that had newbified blank keys that they could copy their house key on and never lose it. These are rares and not the norm. I suggest the alt character doorman.

there are a few noob keys floating around .. i think there is one for sell on the forums atm. (last I saw it was up to 300k)

Thanks guys for all the input.

Make house public + table wall + detect hidden = win.

Only problem with that is there are PKs who will use that to kill you if you're inside afk macroing. You're inviting them to either cast EV on the other side of the table or Meteor Swarm you from the center of the home, since they can actually target the inside floor of your home.

Next to your front door (on the porch), Stack 3 small tables AND 2 boards (or fish steaks or two of any other 1-Z item), then place your keyring with your house key on top of the stack. Lock down the keyring, then remove the tables, etc. You (or any friend of the house) can now lock/unlock the door from that key, and others can not.

I suggest making a macro to do the unlock lock, open, re-lock, enter, close door and detect hidden. Or just do it manually each time. Be ready to "i ban thee" any sneaky bastards that might be trying to step in with you.

You won't have to carry your key, and you won't have to use 2/5 of your small house for a table wall.
