Just wanted to introduce myself. I played Lake Superior back in the day, and have played on a couple of t2a servers over the years. As soon as I get established I will be opening a shop, first house on the Brit-Trinsic road toward the gate! I do some pvp also but haven't played in years so I'm really rusty lol.


Well anyway great server, and thanks to Jack for helping me out. Great guy!

Capture the Flag

• Capture the flag is now implemented and runs on an automated timer, every Wednesday at 8pm. To read details of our CTF system, click here. (there will be a delay before this link works, just adding pictures)
  

• All spells now have a range of 10.
  
• Reflect jewelry/clothing no longer gives an animation when equipped
  
• Purple potions no longer give an overhead public message. If the potion is still in the player's backpack, only the player throwing it can see the countdown.

• Some fixes to detect hidden and targeting dungeon chests. Thanks to Talia for finding these.

• Seekers of adventure no longer lose their destination info on shard restart.
  
• There are now messages to alert a player when platinum drops on monsters, or is inside a treasure chest you open. This will make it easier to find platinum drops. Thanks to Sauron for these ideas.

• Vendors no longer sell beeswax.
  

We're counting down to Lost Lands first tournament. All are welcome to come attend / observe:

I was looking at a list of skills this morning, and I thought...what would be the most useless 7x GM character ever? How about:

• Begging
  
• Cooking
  
• Camping
  
• Forensics
  
• Herding
  
• Spirit Speak
  
• Taste ID
  

So, I've been hunting rares since I started playing on this server.A few weeks ago Sgt Scooter asked me for some tips, and we started working together to find rare spawns. Fortunately, we've had some moderate success in doing so. Since a party isn't fun unless you have friends to party with, we're going to start sharing the sites we've found. Every week or so we will post a few more sites that we've found, along with approximate spawn timers if we know them. If anyone else wants to jump in and share in the spirit of the thread, feel free. Otherwise, Scooter and I hope that all of you enjoy what we have worked to find, and are still working on finding.


Note that we are not in the business ofselling rares, we collect them for fun, because it's a big easter egg hunt, and because we like cool things to decorate our houses. The info we have collected will be provided freely here in the spirit of game camaraderie and in the hope that Jack keeps placing new items for us to find. *hint hint*

Having some issues today with lag spikes. I'm on a gigabit fiber connection. Ping back from game server is 118ms. Tracert's slowest point is 45ms.

Comments below are all subject to change as we are in the infant stages of this high potential free server. Also majority of testing has been done via test and no field pvp has been expierenced on my part.


Dueling-


Similar to what everyone enjoyed about the t2a. UO Lost Lands offers era accurate pvp with a couple twist to raise the skill ceiling and create a diverse 1v1 pvp enviorment. Hally Cycling is enabled but with a .25 swing delay. Meaning one must stop for .25 before the swing takes place. As said before this creates a bit higher skill ceiling for the dueling enviorment and will allow for more "hit stealing" as opposed to other servers in which entail a run and gun mindless duel in which minimal offensive spells are cast.


No chancing on the disrupts. Harm is a sure fire disrupt when timed correctly and debuff will disrupt even if opponent is already under the effects. This allows those wiht the quick trigger to be rewarded with denying their opponent of casting bigger spells. A lot more beneficial than the 50/50 chance disrupots displayed on other servers. Great Mechanic.


A lot of folks feel mini heal is too OP in the t2a era causing duels to drag out. UO Lost lands has implemented a mini heal delay which allows for those who are better at cylcing to keep the upper hand and not become easily kited with a mini heal spam to full health. Another great mechanic.


Hally damage is just about right. The roll of the dice is what we all love about t2a pvp correct?! The hally damage is just about right occasionally you will get a lucky big hit but the medium seems just about right for a consistent dueling expierence.


Despite the dice rolls with your wep hits the 100% disrupt and hally timing are assure to seperate the more skilled opponents from the weak. With that being said I would like to think of the pvp to be low entry level higher skill ceiling. With a little bit of tank mage knowledge you will be able to jump right into the action and find some success right away. But, the most exciting part of UO Lost Lands is the skill cieling hally timing/hit stealing/disrupting will offer. Most servers after a certain amount of time you may feel you plateau at your trade. UO Lost Lands will continually challenge players to increase skill and become the best hally whacker there is.


CTF-


if you have not had a chance to tes the CTF arena yet you must hop in test and do so. Yes it has great mechanics and fun to play. But, the best part is the gorgeous map. I promise it will be unlike any arena you ahve seen in UO Freeservers. An excellent made joust like map with various obstacles to overcome. The 20 minutes you are in the arena will feel like 2 minutes. Outstanding landscape and area to pvp in.





Field PVP-


We all have our preferances in pvp setting in UO. We all love the skill v skill of a tank mage duel. But, I think we can all agree in 1998 the reason we chugged a case of mountain dew and stayed up until 6am was the Open World anything goes pvp. As people start finsihing up their toons I hope to see some fun wars in the dungeons and graveyards. Whether it be protecting territory or just plain greifing it can all be fun !





-I will hopefully acquire some pvp screenshots tomorrow as they have been turned off the last several days. If admins or anyone has anything feel free to post them!


Happy Hally Whacking
