At my vendor! (1 screen East of Brit moongate)

Small patch with some quality of life things. Achievements didn't make it in with this patch.

I have made a decision on some of the features people find more annoying about playing here, such as cutting bandages one at a time. They are out. This has been a long thought out decision, I don't feel any reason to continue to hold players hostage for a piece of annoying era accuracy. The fact of the matter is that cutting bandages one at a time hasn't given any benefit to anyone and only served to annoy most players.

Without further ado...

• Cutting cloth will now cut the entire stack into bandages.
  
• Item identification is now global, instead of per character. An item is either identified or not.
  
• Dye tubs can now be used and targeted from 2 tiles. Dyes can only be targeted from 1 tile away. This will allow public dye tubs. 
  
• Terathan warriors will always carry a magic weapon. It can be anything from the worst magic weapon possible, to the best weapon possible.
  
• A new town invasion has been added to the list, an Orcish invasion, with a brand new boss monster Gothmog. Gothmog will obey rules of Orcish guilds.
  
• The drop rate for masks from monsters has been increased 250%.
  
• Accidentally left out, but will be active from next restart: player vendors will have a flat rate fee of ~100 gold per day (96 to be exact). I realise sales are slow and it is tough to keep vendors restocked when overstocking will result in a loss. Until the player economy is flowing a bit more, vendors will have this flat rate fee.
  

Mobile version of the website is now live. If you spot any odd behavior on you device please let me know.

Over the last few days I've been working on creating an achievement system, and am pretty excited with how it's turning out.

To start off with, I've made a few "dummy" achievements which are used for testing.




Here's something like what an individual achievement page will look like:



Each achievement is very easy to add, so I'm very open to ideas for achievements to add to the system. If you have any ideas for achievements you'd like to see, let me know.

Achievements are account bound. Because of this, when other players look at your achievements, they'd be able to see who all your characters are by the name that appears in the list. Because of this, achievements will have privacy options to hide them on your character. You will be able to select which character on your account you wish to use as your "display character" - the one who's name will show up in the leaderboards.




You will be able to compare your overall ranking on the shard for each achievement:




... and overall rankings for all achievements:



Once the system is complete, we'll also begin working on integrating it to the site, so you can show off your character's achievements on MyUOLostLands.

Hope you guys are as excited as I am!

I went to move my house add-on yesterday by dbl clicking it with a bladed weapon, and destroyed it!      I was expecting it to become a deed in my pack or bank!  I understand you can get deeds from IDOC house add-ons, not sure about manually destroying houses. But that seems extreme. Would it be possible to move add-ons by another means pls?

EDITED: I've locked the place up to use personally until such time as I change my mind. The offer below is off the table until further notice.

Hello all,
I don't play here that often but I have a great home location at Yew bank. I'd like to see it put to better use but I don't have any desire to part with it presently.
I have converted it to a public building and will friend any players looking to post up vendors in this prime location. As you can see in the picture, there's full bank access from within the home. I have various locked down containers and a few secures, for moving items around while you manage your vendors. 

I will be looking for reputable delegates to co-own so we can friend people when I'm not around. If I know you well enough, PM me and I'll add you. 
If you're a player looking to sell your wares, PM me and I'll friend you to the house. I take no responsibility for your vendors or the items therein. If you are running scams, expect to be removed as a friend and banned next time I see you on the property. 

Hail Lost Lands!

As you've no doubt noticed, we've had a big website overhaul, and one of the additions is the Picture of the Month.

You can help us make our website prettier by posting your submission for picture of the month in this thread. Each month, the winner of the picture of the month will receive a trophy in game for their submission. Pictures can be anything, at the beginning of each month we will judge the winner.

A good place for uploading images is http://imgur.com - to post a picture of the forums, first upload it to imgur, and then use the direct image link inside forum tags like so:

• Avoid any client modifications (eg: tree stump hack, paperdoll edits)
  
• Try your best to avoid "system message spam" - where the left side of your screen is filled with messages.
  

I'm kinda feeling naked without one!  Also perhaps some sigs promoting Lostlands shard for ppl active on mmo gaming forums etc.
