Shard Changes / Another Patch Coming in Friday
July 13, 2016, 10:52:06 PM
Another Patch Coming in Friday (possibly before) -- Going to do them like mini chapters so it's not so much to take in by holding it for all at once. There is some pretty cool stuff in this one.

Keep voting.
#62
Reboot #2

Magic Tornado tweaks - they can go up to 1400 hp, but also down to 900, you want to find a good spawned one. HP, Str, Int, Dex, Skills, can all be a variables. Still always a good pet, just a chance to have it even better. Now takes 116 to tame as opposed to 119.1


Fixed Control Slot Unlockers. They now allow you to go up to 10 maximum control slots.


Battles now give everyone PVP coins who participates. 1 for just showing up, 3 to the winner. You never even die, so even if you don't PVP, join them just for the coin. Same with Daily PVP.
#63
Also added to Oceanic Store
#64
Pet Slot Unlocker +1 and the +1 added to the Oceanic Store.
#65
A preview of the next 3 Bosses in Luna bank.

The Great Ape
T-Rex
Dr. Spector



If you have any ideas on what they should drop. Post reply here with my message in quotes.

Patch - July 12th, 2016 - By: King Kong
HAS BEEN EDITED SINCE ORIGINAL POSTING

Thank you all for your suggestions lately. Here is the first step in listening to you:



- A New Powerful Pet. The most powerful NON-DONATION Pet is here. A Magical Tornado -- It spawns randomly at the different Tribe camps at least a couple times a day in the Valley of Eodon. You will never know what camp it is at. The Tribes protect it. It has around the same stats as a Pandorian Llama with an average HP of 1200, they spawn differently or "roll" each time. One might have 1000 HP, another might have 1400, same with skills. Always trying to get your Tornado a bit better :)... It also will change color if you want it too and ressurect you like a Pandorian Llama. The cool part is when it is roaming around or fighting, it looks like a tornado or energy vortex. But when you try to ride it, it turns into a Llama for a quick get-a-way. It is 5 slots and take 116.0 taming to tame it.


*I have removed the Pandorian Llama from the Donation Vendor and I have placed the Magical Tornado in there for only 4 Pandora Bucks and the Greater Dragon for only 1 Pandora Buck for those who don't want the trouble of taming or do not have high enough Taming, etc. So let new players know they can get a great pet right away there.

Tribe / Magical Tornado Spawns, wise to save this on your desktop: Also you will notice places like Great Ape Cave, etc. As the client updates the map adds more stuff so that will be new areas in the future.



- An Exceptional Weapon Deed added to Donation House. Will turn your artifact into exceptional. Currently it costs 12 P Bucks from asking a few players their thoughts. If you think the price should be lower or higher for the good of the server please post your thoughts here.
   
- Prices for Pet +1 Unlocker and the +1 Additions are much much lower on the Voting Stones.

- Pet Slot Unlocker +1 and the +1 added to the Oceanic Store.

- Added Ancient Ethereal Hell Hound to Donation House and P Coin Store.

- Added Ethereal Tiger to P Coin Store.

- Voting Stone prices adjusted. Many lower. If you're caught voting on multiple chars/accounts all your tokens will be deleted. Please vote everyday, it is the only real promotion our shard can get. If you're also caught by clicking the vote buttons but not actually voting in your browser, all your tokens will be deleted.

- PvP Coin Store prices have been adjusted, a few lower.


- Battles should be fixed. I deleted all the buggy profiles / points, set the Season schedule. Starting today starts as Season 2, hopefully everything works as planned. The top winner each week should get a Battle Necklace, runner ups 2-5 will get 10 pvp coins each. You also get pvp coins when you do the actual battle. I encourage all people to do them, even if you don't pvp just to run around. You always get rewarded and you never actually die or lose anything.

There is a lot of cool new deco and artwork from the latest client you guys will love and will put it in a future patch. Just make sure you keep your UO up to date!

I noticed that to  get  this  6th pet slot with vote tokens will cost 70k tokens,  Ok well this seems a bit much considering you get only 12 vote tokens a day, which means 12 vote tokens  x 30 days that about 4320 a  year, so like 16 years to  get 70k vote token or 700 mil gold to buy tokens.  This is crazy! Also to donate to  get one some can not afford it. Can you please reconsider this? I have over heard some players talking about this and said it is too much and they  are thinking about leaving pandora. I hate to see that happen, so could this be lowered alot or the  amount of vote tokens allows daily be raised? I understand this is a high end thing but 70k vote token is way much.

The price was originally set high to boost the market on them as we knew that nobody had that amount yet. We have to be careful about prices as many players find ways to get them more than others. Also you're incorrect about it costing 70k tokens, that is the price for 2 extra slots (the +1 unlocker and then the +1) The unlocker it self makes you have 6 slots. Also your math is correct on the timing, though that is not counting all the people who sell them, etc. To get it quicker you can buy them from newer players or players who donate. Some players buy them off Donators who don't need to save them everyday. It can add up quick.

But I hear you, the new prices are as follows on the Vote Stones to test it out (subject to change lower or higher if it becomes exploitable):

+1 Pet Unlocker (will give you +1 slot to 6): 3.5k
+1 Pet Add (adds another slot after you unlocked, up to 10 control slots total): 5.5k


Voting Tokens are now much more valuable. Make sure you are typing the [Vote command every single day and actually voting on the websites (and do a 1 time sign up on PortalUO to be able to vote). If you're caught voting by just clicking the button and not actually clicking the button on the website, all your voting tokens could possibly be removed. It only takes a minute each day and it's all we ask as it is the main way to grow the shard. Thank you.

These are the opinions Of Miki McNaughty and no other.

To possibly get the 8 white or black seeds from a crossbreed, is worth the effort  Pandora Wiki also goggle  (UO plant cross breeding) is very insightful.
If you do your homework, suddenly doesn't seem so daunting. My opinion is to keep it as it is. The best things are the ones you work for. Empati 400 tries would take 2800 days. DO you remember the things I shared about crossbreeding?  I will help anyone who is interested just let me know! If you need more help Empati with the process I will help any way I can!

Tameables on Pandora. I think the pet such as the Demonic dragon should be a 5 slot pet. With hit points going up on mobs, it is time for Pandora to have more than the Greater and Bane dragons for use in helping players. It would give each and everyone the ability to own one, as long as their skills are high enough to tame it and control it. If that means easing up some on their stats and skills, make it so that all skills ex. {tame, lore, vet} have to be 125 before you could control it etc. I think would be worth it.  The  Demonic Dragon  even scaled back some could and would help us all stand more as equals. Yes, I know the + 6 slot unlock is going to be sold for gold and for a tidy sum I'm sure. I am also aware that it takes a very long time to have the gold resources needed when so many other things are just as important, if not more so than the pet slot. I don't know. I only want great things for Pandora and I never want to see my Pandora turn into the shard of the Have's and Have Not's. Something to think about.

Miki

PS I would love to see more shard events they are great even if you don't win!

What kind of stats would this 5 slot Demonic Dragon you are suggesting have?

I would really like to see bio engineering to be added to the server because I have noticed a lot of servers have it. 😀

A lot of servers have it because it's free easy system to install, thats why almost all new servers have it. It's not original. Early on in Pandora I played with it, but realized it had very bad long term effects. It's OK for shards that won't last more than a few months (99% of them), but when you're over 7 years, it's a different thing. hehe

Lets start the list
1. Sheep Statue is a 7th year Veteran Reward that produces 10 Wool or Leather of random type each day. It stores a maximum of 100 resources which can be retrieved by double-clicking on the statue. Bring back our ore carts
2. Imbues added for clothing examples. skills that cant be raised above 100 ( arms lore ) ( forensic eval ) ( posion) craft bonus to clothes just adding a few more imbues..
3. Fix airnets vs bolas in pvp easy to see that Gargs have advantage in pvp with bolas vs. airnets.
4. The best non donation pet in game cant be used because it requires an extra slot The slot is at the o coin store but cant be bought. Simple fix add to store menu.
5. We need either new player helpers who are on or new staff at least a counsellor who can screen and write in a book to give to noll or Kong.
6. Bring back battlenecklace . were getting pvp coins for battles but no new necklace's
7. Make it so can make unraveling runes for skills. I have tossed tons of nice talis and jewelry because had 2 skills
8. Put the ethy hellhound in p coin store don't see it in donation house anymore.
8. Fix young player  Once a person has a certain skill count don't need to stay young forever and a lot of us vet players help them a lot
9. Any way to fix lumberjacking? Only getting 1 chop on a tree and rarely get any of the mats from lumberjacking.
10. Leave infested as is. Great system and do not add 125 ps exchange. vets can get enough ps's no need to give away a rare item
11. if luna house players are no longer playing i.e. haven't logged in in months make the houses saleable ( big goldsink item)
12. Give me time I am sure can think of more.


1. Ore carts are highly exploitable and would crash the entire shard, we don't want them back.

2. I'll talk to Noll about this, seems like a decent idea.

3. Explain this more. Gargs will have an advantage sometimes, but why is Airnets not up to par? Specific.

4. I'd it to be a  Voting Token item. What would be a high and fair price for it? Chickens suggestion is 20.5k Vote Tokens. Would take awhile, but not that long if you bought from other players, would give new players a way to make money from filthy rich vets. Obviously the price were Vote token will go up if this +1 Slot Unlocker is added.

5. We would like one, but it's hard for players to not use a counselor as an advantage for finding out where people are. Though I do have an idea for a very limited one, where a player can just answer things in global chat, PMs or pages through that char.

6. Battle necklaces should drop now at the top place for the Battles week.

7. Will talk to Noll about this.

8. They do automatically go Un-Young don't they? Does anyone know the exact time or amount of skills for that to happen?

9. Lumberjacking is fine, it's made like that because people never just Lumberjack, they simply just script it AFK. If people didn't do that, it would be different.

10. Noll handled this.

11. We would like that, but its hard to know when someone really has left for good or just gone for summer, etc. Still working on a better system for this.

Thanks for notes.

Shard Changes / I Wanna Hear From You!

Howdy Pandora citizens.

About once a year I like to start a discussion to get the players opinions on any minor (nothing is too small) or major tweaks to make Pandora more efficient and better gameplay. I know we have other parts of the forum for ideas / suggestions, etc. We do read them, but I'd like to consolidate the needs and wants for the current time in here. I will consider all things posted as a reply here. Please think for the good of the shard as a whole as opposed to personal gain. (though it can be both), players feel free to comment on any suggestion, but please use quotes as to what you are referring to. You can make as many as you can think of.


Please be very simple in your suggestion. Use the following format:

Example)

Suggestion: Add the +1 Pet Unlocker Statue to Pandora Coins "for suggested amount" and Voting Stone "Suggested Amount"

Why: Many great pet duos can be accomplished by having 6 slots, if they want more they can donate for more. But having the price set that high will take possibly months of hunting and trading to get that many coins and will give an option to those who cannot ever donate.


Thanks again folks! New month is approaching (it's summer so I know a lot of you are outside during this time, but please remember to vote once a day).
