I seem to remember around 70-75 begging skill you could get the more rare items, it's just a very low chance at getting them.
No it's not... Begging ranks right up there with Poisoning and such for how tedious it can be...
You mean that poisoning is actually more painful that taming? Just joking lol.
Yes now it is... Taming after 90 is a snap.

I was able to get to about 90 begging in about 1-2 days by finding a place with 6 beggable NPCs close enough together and relatively immobile to where I could stand there and beg from them all. I then made a UOAssist Macro to where I'd beg each with a 10 second gap between attempt, an equal number of attempts per NPC up to the maximum actions of a UOA macro, ended with a text statement to let me done it was through running, and that 10 seconds had passed. Then, I'd trigger it again.
The reason for the 6x10 seconds x(however many circuits) is that the NPCs take 1 minute to reset to be re-begged, and having 6 NPCs ensures that time passes.
It took me over a week, with alacrity scrolls, to get to GM - ten minutes after Trick or Treat ended (because the person that programmed it back then had ToT end at Midnight GMT on the US shards).

Many people find working up begging in Heartwood great... I find it adds too much crap to my pack... and I prefer to "run the circle" in Luna... begging all the NPC's there... and non-NPC's... You'd be surprised how many folk give money to beggars... and how many try to shoo you away... or tell you to go kill things for gold... hehe.
Siege is actually easier to GM things on... you know you'll get a gain everytime... where as on other shards could take HOURS of tedium to get a gain... For horribly slow things to gain like Begging... it's awesome.
That's UO. Useless skill like begging takes weeks but you can GM resist in a couple hours lol
