Semi-rare Spawns?

I was running around on my thief the other day thinking of things to steal and I went to the semi-rare locations I use to get loot from and either they are not implemented or not spawning correctly.

Forged Metal and Wire - Use to spawn at Serpents Hold BS (Hourly) stayed in the area for a few hours and not one spawned.

Small Fish - Spawned in Dock Barrels (these are the fish that are static on the docks) check most the dock areas and nothing.

Dried Herbs, Onions, and Flowers - I pretty sure they spawned at most of the mage shops (moonglow for sure) and they too were hourly. I haven't found one yet.

I know this is T2A accurate. Due to the fact when I first started playing UO this is how I gained, because I didn't know how to raise my skills otherwise, so I just stole off Npc's and semi-rares to make a bit of gold until I could join the Guild.

The small fish can be fished up, are these the same one? I wasn't aware of these spawning in the barrels. As more the others, most of our rares and semi rares spawn a little slower due to our shard population. We will likely increase the rare in the future, we just didn't want the shard inundated with these items. I belive overall we have more rares and semi-rares than on OSI, but less duplicates.

FISH:
I took a screen and circled the ones I remember, the larger piles might have spawned and i know the really tiny piles didn't.

I use to use them as house deco and they actually sold pretty decent (for the time period)

I'm sure they spawned on all shards I can vouch for GL and ATL ...

I happen to know what you're talking about as to the existence of the stealable semi-rares. I have been discussing with Derrick the implimentaiton of these semi-rares, and hopefully in the future we may actually see them on the server.

The rares are there I have stolen a few off some people and seen them on vendors, its just when I goto get them at the locations I remember them at they are never there.

Thanks.
Yes we do have quite a few stealable and non stealable rares. But we didn't have these.

Actually I'm pretty sure the vendors sold those funny fish.

You're thinking of the magical fish that can be caught by fishermen. That's what I thought was being referred to initially as well

No... Not the magical fish that add stats. The actual vendors ((One at magincia for sure)) sold the piles of little fish. They were rare early T2a.

fried flowers herbs and those spawn and you have to steal them maybe twice a dayish. But most the others, wire, ingots and stuff from the npc boxes dont need to be stolen, jsut pick the yellow boxes. 8)
