Lost Server Birth/Unique Rares?

[bennyboy]

Today I was going over "The Rares Dictionary" and I was browsing through the server birth rare/unique rares and noticed that since I've been here I've never seen any of them for sale and I've only seen 2 of the tall statues and a ore cart/anchor which is at the brit rune library house by the moon gate.

So, I'm wondering where are all of these rares? My best guess is that people who have them don't play any more and if they did, I doubt they would sell them lol. But besides that, what are us players who want great server birth rares supposed to do? Great items are now lost on more then likely inactive players or whatever other reason.

Do the people who own those tall statues or the rune library at brit gate even play any more?

I just would really like to some day be able to buy or find items like cauldrons or even a wash basin!

Is there any way that some how these items can be re spawned or perhaps auctioned off to players? Maybe even hold a event where you could hand out rares that are no longer around. I just think it really sucks that we have no access to these items at all, especially if it's because people have hoarded them and aren't even around any more.

I suggest we have some cool events where you hand out lost rares! Any way, lol I just want some thing to do and some nice rares to deco my house with!

Sincerely,
bennyboy

Not likely for several reasons.

First off, server births happened in OSI, so they are accurate to production servers. If you were not around then to get them, then you were SOL.

Second, these are invaluable items worth millions of gold. If you "dupe" them, their value drops significantly and will then become common "rares".

Third, accounts are never deleted, and as such, if people have them in the bank, they will always stay there. Your best bet to get one is an IDOC, but that is highly unlikely.

Also, you can find some of these items on display in the UOSA museum.

They instituted silver system for players to aquire bizarro unique items also
which is more of a chance than OSI ever gave anyone :O

Yea most server births are being used for deco in locked up castles and keeps

First, I didn't say any thing about server rares not happening in OSI and I know that if I wasn't around I'm shit out of luck, that's why I'm trying to get some.

Second, of course duping rares would lower there value if they were released on the market and not removed.

Third, I know all of this and I'm not sure what you're trying to explain to me other then the obvious, but maybe I didn't make my self clear enough.

I know OSI released these rares and they were only around once, but what if the rares who are on peoples accounts who haven't logged in for years, are just re spawned one time or given out at a auction? Not the person who owns the rares but a duplicate, just one no more then that.

What about people who were banned with these items on them? Was there any one who had server birth rares or unique items that were lost due to some one being banned?

I know we are trying to be era accurate here but I think 1 more of the items that have been inactive for years and years or from banned accounts being added back into circulation would be nice and couldn't hurt too much.

The problem is there's no way to tell which items are in bank accounts of inactive players without manually checking them. There was no tracking beacons tagged onto each server birth when they were created.

So you may be randomly creating the server births that are owned by active players.

Solution would be new server births poppin up randomly maybe

From what i remember, if a Server Birth on OSI decayed in a house then it would respawn again in its original spot. Not sure if it happens here like that.

If you would like to see some server birth rares, go to the UoH museum. Blackfoot has a wide variety of server birth and unique rares that will never ever be for sale. You don't see many for sale because he and a couple other people that bought them, would rather put them in the museum for everyone to see than to continue a cycle of letting them be used as currency.

Whoa, no need to get so defensive bennyboy.

My point exactly is that there never should be a duplicate made. Not 1 or 100. If it decayed and is otherwise lost forever, then maybe, but if it's in a bank box/locked down in the museum (or another house), shit happens.

You talk about people who haven't logged in for years, but what if that person decides to log in tomorrow, checks his bank box and finds out his lava tile is not there? What sort of compensation would he have?

Again, as far as I understand, accounts are never deleted, not even banned accounts, therefore, the item will always be in game, weather it is accesible or not.

Blackfoot's proposed solution of creating new server births would be the only way to get some more, but if THAT happens then I want another CUB.

I understand what you're saying I wouldn't want to have items duplicated if any one owned them outright. What makes you think I would want them to be removed from bank boxes and museums lol. I don't mean to sound defensive, I'm just trying to have a conversation that's all.

Like you said though, if there lost forever then yea they should definitely re spawn or somehow be brought back into the community.

I understand, if some one hasn't logged in for years they shouldn't just have their items removed or the value reduced it's not fair to them at all, it just sucks that people who might have decided to never play again might have these items and nobody gets to enjoy them because of that.

That sucks not banned accounts aren't deleted and if they have legit one of a kind items, they should definitely be released again somehow.

New server births would be nice! How about just some new rares altogether! I mean there are custom items and all, just throw some around the world for us to find lol.

I also noticed that when the server rares did first spawn, some guy had grabbed like 28 of them the first day and who knows what other people snatched up, I'm not sure how much these people distributed them but that's pretty crazy, he got pretty lucky for being on when that post was made lol.

realistically silver si the best way to go for somone looking for a sweet sauce item now

Also peoples whos accounts have been banned are usually the ones who Do own all the coolest stuff. As their exploits etc have given them large advantages.
