black horses

[frostbolt]

i found a black horse wandering around wild in luna and tamed it. ive never seen a black horse before. its not a nightmare because its only got like 40 hp and horse stats.

are black horses rare?

 

[MoneyMaker]

It is probably a released dark steed.
bit more info here- http://uo.stratics.com/database/view.php?db_content=hunters&id=376

.... and yes they are rare, they no longer spawn.

Probably a faction guard horse you can no longer get. You were able to hire faction guards, ones that ride black horses, two shades (pure black, black).

You can no longer use the method used before to obtain these horses.

Thank you, T-nugget. I forgot about those for a moment and was on the way back to amend my post but I see you got it.

I've got about 6 of these horses sitting in my stables, are they worth anything yet?

how do i take screenshots? and post them

 

[Wenchkin]

For screenshots, I usually just hit the print screen key then open up a graphics program and for me it's edit menu>paste as>new image. If you know how to use the rectangle selection tool you can crop the image to the game window rather than post a huge full screen. Then save it as png/jpeg/gif depending what options you have.

There's info on how to post in images or thumbnails that pop out here. If you come unstuck though, just ask and I'll see if I can help you out

they average about 4-5 mil each now (faction guard horses)

Which isn't alot in the current UO economy.

Take care if you are using the new SA client.

A while back I had purchased a faction guard horse for the warrior version of DrDolittle so he could be riding a black mount just like the tamer version of the character. I loaded up the SA client and wanted to see if they had done anything to the swamp dragon art. I logged in warrior/doc, who was mounted on the faction guard horse, and dismounted to get the swampie from the stable and the faction guard horse vanished. Followers went to 0/5. I logged in with the 2D butthe horse was still gone; like it never existed.
