One other thing some of the items that you get out of donation house are blessed to you now so if you get something out of a chest how can you sell or trade it?

They don't come personally blessed when received through the chests. That status is unique to the tower it is purchased from.

This is one of the most amazing patches yet to date!  So much excitement for players of all levels. Thanks King!

Thank you for the free Infested Charybdis Zetum. You were even kind enough to stay to watch me kill it.

I have 1 Suggestion and 1 Question!

I would like to see colored nets back on Pandora. I know they used to be inside fished up SOS chest on occasion. I was told sometimes you might get one on Kathooloo. I am not sure I have never gotten one. I would love to see them randomly appear in a chest, or a corpse.

Thanks,
Miki

My question is, why are some pets unable to skill past 100? Some pets skill into the 130s
[ex Greater Dragon]. I am rather sure some of the newer pets are stopping at 100 skill. Tho its GM it should be able to skill past. Anyway, I'm just curious!

Thanks!

Colored nets do still spawn. They are very rare but I can assure you they spawn. As far as your pet's skills, I could be wrong here, but I do believe you need to do the taming bods in order to obtain pet power scrolls in order to raise up over 100.

Anyone get a Ter Mur steable yet? anyone of them, don't matter which one.

Nope, i have checked every location   multiple times every day since the publish.

How about a weapon to dismount gargs.  I think the lance with its special dismount should take down a garg from flight.  As of right now the dismount special only works if both parties are using a lance.  You can still keep that, but if a garg is using a cyclone (has a dismount special like the lance) and the attacker/defender is using a lance, the lances dismount special should take down a garg from flight.
No one uses lances right now so it would add some diversity to pvp.

I had a similar discussion with Noll about the No Dachis dismount special not working many moons ago. I agree with Johana, gargs can dismount in flight wenshould be able to land a garg while mounted. We still need to look into 120+ hiding in pvp. Absolutely retarded to script that when life gets to xxx points you auto hide in direct line if sight and stealth away while bandy healing and not getting revealed.

i think i did most pvp on this shard still,i didnt play for a long time but i did so many pvp vvith human , gargoyle and elf,so i knovv alot information about vveps and pvp,pvp is very  complicated and little change can make huge difference for pvp, i cant say any about this suggestion before i try it,human and elf class have many good melee vvep and many bovvs for pvp unfortinatly gargs isnt have that much for pvp,maybe you can bring some balance vvith this so i can use some melee vvep vvith my gargoyle,also i am just scared about balance betvveen all classes,i can tell you there is a almost balance betvveen all classes,only there is a no balance vvith accuary,i am getting hit alot even i am using shield but i cant hit that much even my alot combat skill is 125,i did offer suggestion about it make vvearable cloth chests vvith breastplate so vve can get %5 more accuary vvith this vve vvill still have %5 less accuary from human-elf class,i just agree vve all need to do more damage vvith vveps cause alot players have big hit points like me,but this is good idea for only vvarior players,do not pass magery players,magery spells dont  make  much damage i think,i am alvvays like complicated systems in game,but i savv many nevv players just leave vvhen they are see our complicated systems,alot uo players just like classic uo,just let you knovv some about pvp and i am already knovv you vvere pvper on other shard before but this shard very different shard from others thank you for your every great vvorks,and sorry for my bad english

The reason you get hit so much is because you have bushido. Bushido skill is meant to amplify the parry ability while bearing a 2 handed wep. The minute you equip a shield, you actually lessen your ability to parry. Try taking the bushido off and put it on a soulstone and look at the difference.

like i said my friend i knovv alot about pvp but still learning,and i knovv you knovv alot too and i did learned alot from you vvith fighting against you long time ago,ofc my bushido is 0,0 vvhen i am using shield,its definetly not about bushido its about %accuary also my gargoyle dci-hci and all others vvith cap thy

Try to right click your windows icon for UOS and select run as administrator. Let me know if this solves your issue. -Des

Yeah pvp'ers are a fickle bunch for sure, even on OSI whole guilds would get transfer tokens moving shard to shard constantly looking for the ever elusive good battles of old. Their moneys nice as they leave a trail of stench and decay across the lands and eventually drive non pvp'ers back to tram or to other shards or games... then move on. Far as I'm concerned pvp'ing died for me with scripting 3rd party programs as well as the implementation of Trammel. I just play for fun killing mobs and getting neat items any more myself.

So.. this debate could rage on and on, back and forth for a millennia. Guess the GM's will just have to decide for themselves what's best for their own shard in the end. As they say.. It's their world and we are just playing in it..=)

Anyways.. can't wait either way for sure. Great to see some new lands and goodies to fill my pack and trophy houses with. Thanks for all the hard work guys, can't say enough about this shard and your awesome events to others. Played some real doozie shards in the past. This ones definitely home for me.

And there's my point! What makes what you do now, any different than if the new lands were in the felucca facet? Are you going to quit over the fact you can't farm your own new items? No, Otherwise you wouldn't be here now. You are currently content with the system provided. Again, I am not trying to knock you on your opinion, rather than open up your eyes to the true value of how pvp helps to establish a shard. I've tried pulling a few dozen people to Pandora over the last 6 months. They come here and leave after a week due to the lack of fighting. WE HAVEN'T DONE ANYTHING TO APPEAL TO AN ADDED PLAYERBASE!!! If I am wrong, then correct me with facts. At one time this shard had well over 200 unique players. I remember times when 150 people were all on and playing at the same time. We used to have 30 vs 30 vs 20 battles. People were DONATING on a daily basis! We didn't have to resort to a failing vote system. Word of mouth about the fighting was luring new players to the shard.
Do you know what the definition of insanity is? Doing the same thing over and over, and expecting different results. Wouldn't you say that's where we currently stand? All I am saying, is some of us have been making noise and being shut down for quite some time now. The people who don't want involved in the pvp have been getting catered to. Thats fine. However, lets be fair and equal to both sides of the coin. The other way has yet to prove successful. Why not try what the rest of us have been begging for?

Fel Tram?? Why not both?? Its all on a region controller so why not go both? Go 2 weeks tram 2 weeks fel. This way " ALL " can enjoy the new area. Its Just a simple click of a switch. And the easy way to let everyone know what rules are in effect is to go to a town crier type news and let the crier say for example from Feb 1st through Feb 14th New lands are under Tram Rule set. As far as the champ my suggestion is while under Tram Rules drop the gold rate.

Because half tram would defeat the purpose. People will just wait it out until they can farm freely. It would be no different than farming Tot's. The shard doesn't care about the gold, they only care about the rare/unique item drops. As it is now, there is no benefit to anything in fel. You can donate for powerscrolls, eliminating the need to go to fel. Anything off of a peerless can be farmed in tram, same with Doom (tram ruleset).
I don't think many of you realize how strong this shard was as far as population is concerned. The amount of donations it was bringing in when pvp had a purpose. Yes we may field 45 on a high day, but we all know most of those chars logged in are bots for farming resources/bods. The reason we have lost all of the player base....we lost PVP! Whether you like it or not, that is a factual statement. I am sure Kon can even attest to the declining numbers, since all of the fighting has diminished.
So many of you spam about voting. I vote almost every day. The sites we vote on generally have Pandora listed as Top 1 or 2. Guess what? Our playerbase isn't growing. Some old players of the shard peek in on occasion and then leave for 6 months or more because there is ZERO pvp. THEY ARE ALL GOING TO SHARDS THAT ARE PVP HEAVY! So.. those players are still spending money on items to play, THEY SHOULD BE SPENDING IT HERE, but they're not. The reason pvp died is because, Archery got nerfed to help those that favor trammel compete. The pvpers abused the nerf. This in turn caused the non pvpers to stay in tram. Now we all have 400-500 hp and elite armor/weps, and we still cant seem to get any fights.  We have our own version of factions and NO ONE participates.
So yes, lets make the new lands follow the trammel ruleset. Because the last 50 implementations we had on Pandora had all of the players flooding in to get some of the action right?
You can give all the elite items/mass currencies you want, but your original UO players remember the real UO. Trammel was never a factor. They came to work in teams to get items, TO BATTLE other teams. Pandora has pvp for free, between the dailypvp and the battles and we cant even get that. It's time for a change on this shard. We have been catering to the wrong crowd. Am I wrong? Look at our events, "NO PVP" or in tram rulesets, so we can farm the hell out of items that will be worthless in a month.

Look at the big picture. Eventually the shard will die if we don't start supporting it financially.  Very few people donate.  I send across $30-$50 every couple months just because I feel responsible to help pay for the server. That doesn't even compare when you consider time and effort for all the staff involved.
I'd rather you guys prove me wrong, than keep continuing to prove me right. All those "neat rares", won't mean jack, when the day comes that you can no longer log into the shard. Just let that sink in for a bit, then continue to tell me how you are going to increase the player base on Pandora. Because again, either I am a blind idiot, or we haven't been very successful lately.

I vote Fel ruleset. Pvp is virtually non existant right now. The lack of pvp largely plays a role in the shard economy. Both player based and for the shard itself. Most of your donations on free shards are due to the fact that people want to be able to jump right in and compete. Lets face it, there is far more of an adrenaline rush in pvp whether you win, lose or draw, rather than a tram ruleset where most of the playerbase runs their macro and walks away from the pc.

Could also use another Bank Stone. 

Would like information on theyeti. He kind of disappeared. I loaned him about 400 mil worth of gear, items and gold. His name is still in my guild, but unavailable to pm and no longer located in [staff
