remember when we had bad computers and you'd lag when you died and the backpack close sounds would repeat when you grey screened. jesus christ.

Where's a good place to farm hides? Looking for a more relaxing UO experience this time around so I figure I'll do my tailor finally. Kinda fun doing the forensics, can't wait for the Grandmaster Detective fame title =D Also, I can usually find room for 8x8 somewhere regardless of server age or congestion, spent a while running around last night and didn't find anything. Anyone have an eyeball on likelihood of finding a crumby spot anymore? the thought of renting an apartment in a video game is too depressing to endure lol

NJersey posted:Shadowspire Cathedral and Nusero were where I did all my hide gathering that I used to GM Tailoring. Bummer that it required dungeoning. I'd rather do overland poo poo but I guess that's slow going on this server. Back in the day you'd just go to ice isle and kill polar bears. NJersey posted:Doubt you’ll find a spot for a house, best chance is buying or fighting for an idoc. drat bummer. no way im doing the idoc disco but the thought of paying 500k for a 8x8 is hosed up. i read the patch notes about the hardcore penalty for pking on the noob dungeon floors, did that have any bearing on the frequency of which they're getting cleared by pks? i don't have tracking on my tailor.

NJersey posted:On this server, with the pvm stealing, I just made a thief with forensic eval and ran around skinning corpses and stealing from monsters being killed by players. My tailor just sat in my inn room. I was getting something like 5k leather per run towards the end. Make sure you have camping for the weight increase. agreed. im not exactly a noob. i have a bard / summoner whos pretty strong. i got up to aspect 3 lyric when it was super expensive and the reqs to pump it up were much higher. not super high but i farmed a lot of inferno. i liked farming there, it was pretty safe and there wasnt a bunch of poo poo spawn that seems rife on this shard. i have a lot of xp pvping and used to be a good duelist. it was fun earlier in the shard running my hally mage around dungeons looking for noob reds and killing them just by virtue of having pots and knowing how to control monster agro / use stone wall. my house collapsed and i lost all my poo poo tho. sucks. seems easy to live with red gates if you have some gheal pots and boom boxes. even a macro to pop and in jux the same pouch seemed sufficient. the thief idea is cool, sounds fun. back on uo redemption (abyss reborn? i forget) i had a lot of fun with a stealth dungeon picker but i remember reading that the timers were all jacked up here. i think i'll take you up on the thief forensic toon. doesn't the tailor itself need forensic? maybe can just macro that hidden somewhere corpses get generated? macro it with summon creature? lol. =D thanks for replying and such. hard to find good uo discourse on forums and i dont like discord. full of creeps and weirdos.

NJersey posted:Oh lol, I just default to assuming someone is new when talking about UO. sucks about dungeon chests. my old bard/summoner sucks rear end now. big mobs do bard break every 5 seconds and the new summons arent as good. ancient summons w. the soul stones or w/e seemed way stronger. i used to be able to clear inferno and now they're spawning on top of me. gonna make a vintage style summon/mage with eval and eldritch. skip the barding and expensive lyric. not gonna gently caress with necro since it's "new fangled" to me and I don't want to do it due to purity. e: and scribe for the double eldritch bonus. i would like to see some large flamestrike numbers. took me an over an hour to farm up 20k last night. gently caress sakes.

Freakazoid_ posted:There was a big shake-up a few weeks ago with pvm, you'll find the game's just overall harder. Nobody can solo level 3 of any dungeon. I see. Seems to me there's a lot of power creep with the codex books and people stacking the chain links or whatever. guess they'll have to keep cranking the difficulty forever. i watched a stream of some chiv townie and he was putting out insane numbers. but then he also died in 1 frame to an elder vampire twice and then got pkd so... tanking mobs yourself still seems vulnerable. there was also an air aspect guy with a q staff farming near me last night who was doing wild damage. kumba posted:I haven't played a pet build since the shakeup but yeah I did hear that pets got hit pretty hard. With the right build though earth eles should still be tanky enough to survive most things without spam healing - Spirit Pact/Corporeal Tether/Grounded/Stonewall is my favorite earth ele build for max survivability, and with enough eldritch you'll get more points to work with beyond that (I"d go for Earthpull at 30) i dont have a summoners tome so i dont have any of those neat passives. dont think im going to buy one either since im not interested in leveling this toon beyond making money to finance my next. i got all my mining out of my system on uo gamers hybrid with the famed mumbling miner easyUO script. not doing that again lol. i think im going to try mage med eval resist scribe spirit speak track eldritch aspect i wish could drop track for wrestle (for endurance) or tasteid for mana regen but its too handy for pk avoidance. idk i just want a classic themed, durable farming toon who can crit big numbers for my enjoyment and level the aspect for a reasonable price. my current is mage med spirit speak track music discord peacemaking lyric aspect (also i leveled it up last night with no mats, and its indicating the next level is also no mats. only xp. is this making up for the assload i dumped into it before the requirements got lowered? that would be so neat) and peacemaking seems nerfed to hell. as the jewel of barding i dont think its worth it for 300+ skill pts unless its at 120 with high lyric aspect and thats just too drat expensive to justify. its also dog boring to play and the character is fragile with no resist or wrestle. heres a silly question: since there's no newbie lanterns or daggers what do farmers use to voluntarily interrupt their casts? i keep spamming my hally button but i have no hally.

kumba posted:A summoners tome is only like 60k-70k and is necessary for your Eldritch build anyway, you can transfer the tome between characters (though the xp doesn't transfer) - It makes your pets an order of magnitude more powerful and is too good to pass up on any summoner i dont wanna play the bard no more!! but i hear you on the codex and grim. will get. quote:As far as spell cancelling: there's a built-in razor macro for that you can bind to a key i meant while youre bowing. ill just tink a lantern in the meantime i guess many thanks for the review and advice!
