  Legends of Aria is now available on Steam!  Find us at our guild website! Did you play Ultima Online? Do you crave re-living those glory days but can't find something that quite scratches that itch? Well, Legends of Ultima has you covered! What is this thing? Legends of Ultima (or LoU) is a custom shard for the game Legends of Aria (previously known as Shards Online - thread here). Legends of Aria was made by some of the original creators of Ultima Online and has been designed as an open world sandbox MMORPG. This means that shards can be completely customised to play the way the dev team of that shard intends. In the case of Legends of Ultima, they have set out to re-create UO using the LoA engine - and they're doing a drat good job at it. The shard has already drawn a very large following which is growing every week. The dev team are constantly working on new additions and content to recreate Britannia.  Why should I play on this shard instead of just playing UO? Ultima Online was great. It was amazing. But now it's old and it's bad and, I mean, just look at it. Sure, the official UO shards are still online but the only populated one is Atlantic and even that's starting to die off. Remember that lovely screen shudder and your walking suddenly stopping as you traversed the land? That poo poo still exists. Free shards are nice, but you're still restricted to the old engines and end up playing with other UO veterans that refuse to move on. Legends of Ultima operates through Legends of Aria, a game which, although still in development, is attracting new players and is beginning to approach the open beta stage. LoU is still gaining new players and this is before the Steam release where it's expected to get a whole lot busier. I never played UO, why should I play this? Ultima Online was an absolute classic before World of Warcraft took the MMORPG genre into a new direction. In the open world sandbox of UO, you could play a character that you wanted to play. There are no levels, there are no classes, there are no factions (there are guilds though!). If you want to be a swordfighter, grab a sword and hit stuff to get better. Want to be a mage? Get busy casting and working up those magery skill points. There are a whole bunch of skills and abilities to use, but they're god awful until you become somewhat proficient in them  . Using the skills and abilities that you want to use means that you'll create a character that has strengths and weakness in those areas. Legends of Ultima follows the same dynamic and most of the same skills and abilities are there. PvP is open world and loot is dropped on death for others to loot - let the pubbie tears flow. There is a criminal system to help you keep out of trouble - or find it. In short, Legends of Aria is doing a great job so far at re-creating the game that changed the world and it is your duty as a goon to get involved and do goonish things.What can I do in this game? Stealing NEW! Build and decorate a house/town! Troll pubbies! Run dungeons! Chop trees! Craft things! Make gold! Buy/Sell things! Mine rocks and ore and cry as you try to make more god drat ingots! Kill people! Undercut pubbies! Troll pubbies! Gather regs! Spend hours trying to make a table! Tame and ride/sell/use creatures!  Drag health-bars around your screen! Troll pubbies! Set traps! In Vas Flam! Also, troll pubbies!  Discord! You can now Join the Discord!. You will need to auth to access all channels. On joining, you'll receive instructions on how to do so. J4G's are not welcome, your SA account must be at least three months old with active posting history You can also join the official LoU Discord. However, if you insist on doing so, make sure you read their rules beforehand. They are at the bottom of this post. Change your name to [GOON] username. Is there a Goon Guild? Yes! We are Goon Squad  Invites can only be done when physically standing next to one another so your best bet is to ask in Discord once you're authed so someone can meet you and invite you. Let's be red and give the pubbies what they want!    Once you join discord and log into the game, ask someone to help get you to Goontown. One of our very friendly members will show you the way to your new home. Why do people have different colored names? Blue = Good person - They haven't made any recent criminal acts or murders Gray = Criminal - They've broken the world rules (eg, looting a player in town, attacking another player). You can kill them without suffering any consequences Red = Murderer - They've killed people and they're free game for your mighty sword or fists or whatever you're using. You can kill them without suffering any consequences. If you start killing blue people, you will turn red. This will eventually go away after a long time in game. Logging off for a month does not count! For the love of all that is holy, DO NOT GO TO A PROTECTED AREA (this includes Moongates) if you are RED or GRAY because the guards will kill you, loot your poo poo, and the populace will laugh at your dumb rear endDo not kill <YOUNG> players or any players at a Moongate or bad things will happen to you most likely being banned To check your murder count type I must consider my sins into the chat bar (do this in local, not world, guild or group)  I died! How do I resurrect? Like UO, there are wandering healers about and your minimap will have arrows to direct you to them. Talk with them and they will resurrect you. Run back to your corpse within 30 minutes or you'll lose whatever gubbins you were carrying, and while running, pray some rear end in a top hat hasn't stolen your poo poo. Players can also resurrect you. Mages can use a spell and people with first aid/healing above 80 can also revive you. How do I cast spells? Again, like UO, you will need a spellbook, sufficient mana and enough intellect to cast that spell. You will also need reagents (regs) to cast the spell. You can buy regs or collect them from the ground dotted about in the world. Spells also have a chance to fail so if you're a lovely, low skilled mage then you should probably work on your casting before looking for trouble you can't handle. How do I play? Buy a copy at the Legends of Aria website or on Steam. The cost is $19.99. Am I going to lose my progress when the full UO Map drops? Legends of Ultima does not intend to wipe player progress when the classic map goes active. This is not a guarantee, but they are planning on giving away free skillbooks and house deeds to restore your progress if that does happen. I bought it! How do I join the LoU shard? It's easy! You don't need any custom software and there's no need to edit any files. Start the game, click on 'Community', click on 'Legends of Ultima' then click 'Enter World'!  Screenshots! Videos!

Helpful Stuff! This post will include help for those in the game Also... TAKE 50 MAGIC RESISTANCE DURING CHARACTER CREATION, YOU IDIOT. If you know what you're doing you can ignore this but if you don't, always always always take it! Extremely helpful New Player Guide!! One of LoU's pubbies, Lodestone, made this pretty good guide. Thanks for tracking it down, Skyfire. Skyfire posted:https://docs.google.com/document/d/1sfabyWF1VoWuAkedyY5Sah_JPMxW9CSDfoajA7xRSbQ/edit Map You can use /map to bring up the map in game in case L isn't working for you. Turd Herder posted:Not sure if people know about the map you can access out of the game. Monster spawns, champion spawns and dungeons can be found in this very useful imgr post! M-m-m-m-macros!! Yes, you can macro in this shard. That's right, you can play without playing - that is the true UO experience. Get LoUHelper here and stop playing. Also, get the binary package rather than loving about with Auto Hotkey Scripts. Custom shortcuts Use /custom in game to make shortcuts and assign them to buttons. Remove the / prior to any commands though. For example, to make a shortcut that will bring up your map, you'd use /map in text chat, but for a custom macro you would use just map, like this: code:code:code:code:code:code:You can ride a horse, a warg, a cu, a wyvern, a Nightmare (magical casting horse!) and probably some other poo poo too. Ethereal mounts exist including a troll mount which, in honesty, looks like a fat transparent gorilla. Tame them or buy them from the stable master. The game uses pack beetles rather than horses and they come in two varieties - plain and fire. Fire can hold a bit more, function as a portable forge and can also hold its own in a fight against weaker monsters. Plain beetles will just carry stuff. Skill Guides Think about what kind of character you want to play before you make it. Don't worry, though - you can't really go wrong. You can start with 4 skills at 30 when you make a new character, but you can also buy skillbooks for 300g each from the trainer vendor (with the exception of Magic Resistance (MR) so you'd do well to take that from the start). MR is important, so here's a quick little tip: MR = Start with 50, suffer through firewall until you're 55, get smashed with earthquake until your're 100 We have mages, and I'm sure they'll be happy to help you boost your MR. To be nice, it would be kind to give them a bunch of regs or gold if you can afford it now or in the future. You can also have magic mobs cast on you, but this may take longer to boost the skill. It's a difficult skill to gain. Note: Mages and bards are cool, but are expensive to skill up due to all the regs and flutes you'll need. If you're starting here fresh, your best off making a dexxer. To get you started, there are Dexxer Bags available at the Guild house which contain the items you'll need! Grab a friendly goon and ask if you can punch them in the face for a while to boost your combat and healing skills up. Dexxer 100 - Swordsmanship, Fencing or Macing 100 - Tactics 100 - Anatomy 100 - Magic Resistance 100 - Parry (if you're going to go 2 handed weapons, don't worry about this, but you'll get hurt more when being attacked) 84 - Healing (Healing apparently maxes out at 84, so although you can get to 100 in it, it does not have any bonuses beyond 84 at present) 16 - Poisoning You'll now have 116 skill points remaining (or 216 if you aren't going to use parry). They also plan to allow Lumber jacking to boost melee attacks, so that would also make an ideal skill to go with this if you want to shuffle things about. Archer 100 - Archery 100 - Tactics 100 - Anatomy 100 - Magic Resistance 100 - Hiding 100 - Stealth 84 - Healing (Healing apparently maxes out at 84, so although you can get to 100 in it, it does not have any bonuses beyond 84 at present) Go wild with your last 16 points! If you're horribly unorganised (who isn't?) and feel you might run out of arrows (or feel you might die and lose them all) then drop Hiding and Stealth and take a melee skill like Swords, Maces or fencing as well as perhaps Parrying a dmc delorean fucked around with this message at 09:47 on Sep 16, 2018 |

Melee is pretty good, you'll definitely need to get your healing/first aid skills up too. 60 points will allow you to cure poisoning and 80 means you can resurrect. You'll also want to increase your Magic Resistance (MR). Like UO, lumberjack gives a damage bonus if you decide to use an axe as your weapon When we get a guild made up, you can hit each other to gain skills. If you're in the same guild then you won't trigger the criminal system either. Dungeon crawling is good gold but watch out for red players. Jason and Baddington Bear are known for PKing in them. Another good source of gold is fishing, the sea serpents can drop a lot but they're pretty tough - it's best to have one or two guys fishing and another two to murder the fished up monsters Also, in case you didn't know: all skills can be trained to 30 through a trainer. Using a training dummy can also get melee skills including tactics up to 30 for free.

Currently the LoA map is being used - but it's still pretty good and there are active dungeons. Turd Herder posted:How many players are on this Shard? There are always people online, but it's been less busy since summer time started. With the steam release and end of summer, it's expected to pick up a great deal.

dipwood posted:I'm not too familiar with UO or LoA, is there any sort of organized player owned territory capture? Traditionally, no - guilds and their members would try to place their houses near each other but this wasn't always possible. LoU, however, have recently added in an extra feature whereby guilds can form their own guild town (for quite a high price). Capture isn't possible, though, just the routine murderizing of pubbies.

Discord server is up! Click here to join. You will need to auth with GDN Bot, and it will message you to guide you through the process. It's very easy, join the server and use !authme SAusername and the bot will guide you through the process. It will give you a code to add to your SA profile and then ask you to message it back to confirm you've done it. Please let me know if this works or doesn't work - I'm a moron when it comes to stuff like this. You should only be able to access one chat channel prior to auth (lobby) and once authed, you should have access to an additional chat channel as well as three voice channels. a dmc delorean fucked around with this message at 17:58 on Jul 9, 2018 |

Goon Guild is up! In game guild name is Goon Squad. LoU devs have made it so you can only receive an invite when you're standing next to the person whose inviting you, so your best bet is to ask in Discord to meet someone. I'll try and sort out permissions so goons can invite other goons. Goon HQ is near Occlo. If your L key doesn't bring up the map, use /map. Coming from Occlo moongate, if you cross a stone bridge with a river running beneath, you're going in the right direction. If there's a troll on the bridge, run past it unless you fancy testing your skills.   It's a real poo poo shack at the moment but we'll improve it. Guild Access has been given on this building. I'd suggest placing houses near here if you're going to buy one (which you probably will). a dmc delorean fucked around with this message at 16:28 on Jul 15, 2018 |

Dante posted:Be aware that they're nerfing skill gains pretty badly. Crafting gains are now extremely slow, so if you want to be a crafter you should probably wait until you have enough gold on your primary to bankroll a very long grind. Source on this? Some crafting pays for itself - eg, making practice items can be sold for 10g a pop, making enough money to buy more hatches or pick axes. But not super enjoyable, that's for sure. succ posted:is there any trial key or anything I can try for this game? it sounds fun but I dont want to be behind, especially if they arent resetting servers. The game is in closed beta, so no trial keys unless they run a special promotion. Which they did a few days ago and it looks like you missed it  In terms of being behind, a trial wouldn't help you anyway. Buy the game and play now before it hits steam, you'll still be ahead of many others. Given its summer, LoU is quiter than the cooler months anyway. Goons are grouping to skill up, so it's not a bad time to start

Andi is fine, but he doesn't like toxicity. I've spoken with him, he was nervous about Goon Squad joining up (he used to play Eve, so he knows about goon shenanigans) but we have agreed that if we step out of line, he'll contact me first via Discord. He has this agreement with two other large guilds on the server, too - DoW and FL. As long as we don't spam up their discord with toxic poo poo, we'll be fine. He also doesn't care if we are a red murderball guild and accepts our play-style, but this Vulgar guy from another guild really rubbed him up the wrong way. It's a long story, and I can see it from both sides. I think someone starting a Discord alt called 'Hitler Andi' was just the final straw for him and that's when they banned a bunch of people from the LoU Discord (and only one from the actual server).

insomne posted:Yeah, I have no clue either. That's why I was probing them about it in their Discord (very politely, I might add, since I could sense these guys have a bit of an ego problem). I was genuinely trying to understand how inviting people to a private Discord is "poaching." I think somebody might have the chat logs around here, but I was booted (and didn't really expect to get booted) so I don't have them. The guys are mostly alright. Andi is the one with a bit of an irritable reputation to be fair - and this is the first I've heard of him doing something like this, and I've been on the shard for a fair while now. I agree the poaching thing is bullshit, but it's done now. Stimwalt and Gorgon are still chill dudes. I've updated the OP, just avoid talking to Andi about admin politics and we'll be fine. He's got permission to contact me via Discord if he has any issues (he also has this with DoW and FL; I've spoken to him as you know, I reckon he'll be fine with us as a guild). Meanwhile, in today's adventures... We started off raiding Britain Sewers before we reached level 3 and ran into trouble with pesky imps. A few of us went out and hunted orcs. Dumbasses just couldn't help but run into our blade spirits.  We also found a psychotic ninja fellow. He was tough, but we took him down and he dropped a neat axe.

Chef Boyardeez Nuts posted:I'll join tonight when I get back from getting drunk at a bar. I used to enjoy playing a hidey gank-mage, so I'd like to do that again. Any tips on good ways to make money for training reagents? I think most people use dexxers to bankroll buying regs. We try to fund people as much as we can for stuff like this but we don't currently have a huge deposit of gold to dip out of just yet (there's some, it might be enough to get you started). Remember to take 30 MR, 30 Magery and 30 Eval Int, 30 Meditation (and 30 Inscription from the skill book seller) a dmc delorean fucked around with this message at 17:15 on Jul 22, 2018 |

Bell_ posted:Questions Notoriety. Blue is citizen aka non criminal Taming: 1. Do OG tamed dragons still love randomly setting reds on fire? Not sure 2. Have they limited tamers according to animal lore or should I cackle to that video (probably flash) of Witch Azile bitching about tamers with a dozen dragons while System of a Down is playing in the background? Higher lore means taming more advanced creatures Tailoring: 1. Are maker's marks for Grandmaster-crafted apparel in? Yes 2. Any NPCs running around in cloth made of undyeable colors ("nightmare blue" clothing made from the cloaks that evil mages in T2A wore could fetch a handsome sum, even if the market was niche. Haven't killed any friendly npcs but some equipment cannot be dyed

Precasting is in and also you don't need a newbie Town when Goontown is just a small trek away, complete with a training dummy, crafting tables, free tools and FREE LOOT, wowzers!

You will only get mining gains on rocks with brown/orange streaks on them. I spent over an hour running around Goontown smashing rocks and got 0.1 skill. Then I went to Moonglow Quarry and gained 3 full skill points in about 15 minutes. Smelting increases mining, too. Looks like Gorgan is working on the bugs though. He's already added an auto-unstuck feature and the only other bug I have is crashing to desktop when I click the exit game button (which isn't a huge problem when you think about it)

You could just quit crafting for the time being and kill stuff instead (or gain combat skills). Not sure about the lag issue because that's definitely a thing, but ultimately I guess if you're not doing something you enjoy it's time to do something else. Whether that's joining goons for gank squads and dungeons, or playing something else for a while, it's your choice. As a note though, you can gain mining skill through smelting. You could dungeon run and spend gold on ores to smelt, or just smelt ores other goons have dug up. One we have a higher level miner, ores should be good and plentiful - I'm planning on stockpiling ingots ore ores for goon use when I get a chance

Couldn't you just alt + enter to switch it to window mode so it'll shrink for you?
