No bountyhunter and only one kind of Galleon. If this was your question.

Welcome to Pandora

.1 mana per 40 Int means 0.0025 mana per 1 Int.
I don`t believe you will notice if there is 0.1 more or less mana per sec or even 1 mana per 10 sec

- Imbuing Unraveling will now only give you a Relic Fragment when it's magical property weight is equal to or above 1050, as opposed to the previous 850. Also it has a 50/50 chance to give you 1 Relic or None. It's a coin flip. You will still get the other ingreidiants always.

Most monsters hit harder and are harder to kill then "normal". No skill cap, increased runics and higher stat cap is also not "normal"
+ I think some monsters hit a "lucky punch" from time to time.

Thats all I can answer, sorry.

Welcome !

You should play and choose the stuff like you want to, of course.

But with an Axe and Lumberjacking you could do a little extra dmg.

I prefer Double Axe
http://www.uoguide.com/Double_Axe

a) Whirlwind Attack is a good Special Move against group of mobs

b) good DPS
c) other ppl. use this axe too. = better chance to find Vendor with this weapon

[There is a risk to break the weapon!]

With runic tools and patience, yes.

The correct material increases your chance, but it is not necessary.

If you miss a view % to 100% and the % you miss are pysical, you can also try to enhance the weapon. (on Pandora mining only, I think)
There is a risk to break the weapon!

Example:
Double Axe with 80% Cold and 20% physical -> enhanced with shadow (+20% cold dmg) = 100% cold dmg possible.

Double Axe with 80% cold and 20% fire -> enhanced with shadow = still 80% cold and 20% fire.

In your first post you said something about your bones.
I´m not sure but I think if there were only bones and not your corpse it means your stuff were already gone. Or maybe we are not able to open player bones, I don`t know about. Never had that problem.

It sucks, I did understand.

Next time you could try to get your stuff from corpse stone.

1. insure!
2. do not leave your char except it is realy save!
3. insure! insure! insure!
4. allow to renew insuration!
5. wasn`t there a corpse stone anywhere ?

Others aren`t allowed to loot your corpse, except at PvP areas or if your in a group and did allowed your group mates to loot your char. If I'm not mistaken.

Sometimes it helps to press shift+ctrl and double click the sign.

There are different ways to kill pyre and all the others.
The possibility to do something on different ways, and to find out my way, is one of the qualitie of UO.
There is not only one right way to do something.

I will never ask someone how to do something if I did not try it by my own before. To check out how I can do something is what I like to do.
And I would never answer generally questions about how to do everything. To find out how I can do something is a part of the game.

If you want to do something special and tried out different ways but can`t still reach your goal, from that point I would answer a question about that.

That are only my opinions.

Why do you need such a list ?
Just check out which one you can beat and which are to hard to kill right now.

Even if there is no skill cap there are still differences to the armors, stats, skill points and of course to the personally tactics to kill something.

For example:
Maybe it is hard to kill pyre. But it is easy as a sampire if you know which weapon you should use.

First of all you should choose one play style. (Tamer, Sampire, Caster, Archer, ...) Later you will be able to switch but at first you will need a better gear.

I would have liked a melee Sampire, but i think i'll get better gear before starting.

I think so too.
You could start as an Archer.
You would only need 1 other skill (archery)
Stats are the same (max dex / stamina)
I personaly prefer x-bows. 30-35 SSI and a bit mana leech should be enough at the beginning.

Tamer should be easy to start with.
Greater Dragon is about 84.7 skill only.

Stratics says 104.7, is there something different here in Pandora?

Yes, Pandora is different

-> Tweaks

I almost start as Archer or Sampire. Last one is a bit harder because melees are heavily dependent on their armor. So it is not a good choice to start with.

Well, that's the exact problem i have. No gear = no sampire.

Next should be a armor with maxed resistances and maybe a better weapon.
If you can`t find any send me a PM here or at Keshan in game and tell me what weapon/armor your are looking for. I could try to get a 100% LRC with maxed resis and some other properties depended on what your going to play and looking for (mana, stamina, mana reg etc etc.).

I have no trouble with the maxed resistance, thanks to the Glass Armor, Bracelet of Blessings and good Jewelry. What i need is a good weapon, but i couldn't find a good melee/whirlwind capable area attack weapon..

As I said, tell me what you are looking for. I just need some data

1) Vampiric Embrace is nerfed, i don't know what the penalty to fire res is, but i cannot move it from the minimum no matter what i wear! And most casters mob cast fire spells...
penalty is -65 fire res.
I don´t know how much your char is trained so far, but with 100 at Resisting Spells you will get 40 to all resis. Not perfect but more then nothing

-65 UGH!
So... should i try and get a 135 fire res suit, or forget about it and stay with my 40? (i have 100 resisting spells)

The lower runic tools on Pandora are boosted to let runic armor be still interesting beside imbuing. Means it is much easier to get a high resi armor out of Dull Copper, Shadow and Copper runic Hammers and also out of runic kits. That is why on Pandora the penalty is higher then normal.
So yes of course you should try to get all resis up to max. If you are doing right you will only need one armor. Regardless if you are melee, tamer, ranged, magican or anything else.

2) I cannot find the "starting" artifacts (i.e.: Soulseeker) in any vendor i went on, and i don't know if there is a named monster or a miniboss feaseble for my "starting" suit and skills :?
I don`t think you will need a special arti to start your sampire.
I do not have any artis but with a little support of my x-bow (I can not beat 5 mobs at once) I am able to solo a lvl 6 T-Map with my sampire.

Could you elucubrate on a ranged Sampire? I thought that was not possible because of Honor requirements, and Life Leech only on melee?!?

Ranged is not a true Sampire anymore, of course.
I only told you about the x-bow to explain that I can not kill a bulk of Ancient Wyrms, Balrons etc. with melee but still each single mob as a sampire without any artis.

For the PS, i will endure my bank loss with good grace...

Thanks for all the answers, hope to see you in game.

I`m from germany, so don`t worry about your english. I will not notice if your english is sloppy or something else

First of all you should choose one play style. (Tamer, Sampire, Caster, Archer, ...) Later you will be able to switch but at first you will need a better gear.

Tamer should be easy to start with.
Greater Dragon is about 84.7 skill only.
Cu Sidhe is very rare (respawn about once a week, as I know)
I believe White Wyrm can be stronger/better then normal, maybe stronger/better then Greater Dragon. But I`m not a tamer, so I don`t know exactly.

I almost start as Archer or Sampire. Last one is a bit harder because melees are heavily dependent on their armor. So it is not a good choice to start with.

When you know which style you want to play, get the needed Power scrolls or at least all you can get for. (105, 110 and a few 115 (depends on your style and to your bank balance))

Next should be a armor with maxed resistances and maybe a better weapon.
If you can`t find any send me a PM here or at Keshan in game and tell me what weapon/armor your are looking for. I could try to get a 100% LRC with maxed resis and some other properties depended on what your going to play and looking for (mana, stamina, mana reg etc etc.).

Also rise your stats (str,dex int) as much as you can. (With Jewels and Tali)

Of course you will not be able to get all right now or in only a few days.
You should try to improve your skills and your gear step by step. Make some money and check the vendors from time to time.
You could also join the IRC. There is a trade chanel...

There are also some interesting threads in the forums if you don`t know how to make money.

3) Even Power Scrolls are very rare (Sword, Parry, and combat ones at least) and i cannot find them on the vendor or if there are some they are ridiculosly priced. :shock:
Because of no skill cap nearly everyone will need each PS. If you don`t want to do champs for your PS, you will have to pay the prices or stay without the PS.
It is realy easy to make some money on Pandora. I just buy the PS.
