Invasion in the Solen Hive

When does it end? It's already been 3 days since we can't enter, I've already died several times and lost my triton. I have to get the powder of translocation, should I buy it? It is unacceptable to block such an important location for so many days. In the cities one can go to the bank in another city but not down there. I've been there at all hours of the day and night but it's always the same and there are wizards who cast spells on you and kill you in the blink of an eye. I am tired. When will you vacate that place? I'm almost tempted to go back to the Catskills, some things wouldn't happen there.

Are you not entertained?? :eek:

These events have always clicked on a bit too long. This particular thing will probably be around until the next publish.

This is usually the end date, or close to. So right now it's showing we still have a little over one month.
But that is a place where there must be many, and even many, I died several times. It's not like a city, where you can run away and go somewhere else if you need something. I have to go there to get the powder, I certainly don't buy it. Blocking a place where you can't escape is absurd. It will mean that, since luckily I still have the house in the Catskills and some good characters, I'll go there and get what I need from the other server. And then I decide if I stay there again.

But it's also in the Catskills!! And of course I died there too. They are not normal monsters, they cast spells on you and even if you are with a pet they will kill you. Let's hope this time we don't lose the triton. I don't play anymore. I'm fed up

You can do the quest in Fel, if you need to.
I read the publish notes and stocked up in the days before it started.

I don't read much mainly because I don't understand English well. However, I saw that everything is calm on Europa. I'll do the quest there. However, the Solen Hive are special, you can't escape like in the cities. Once you enter the Lich Lords it only takes a moment to kill you and you can't escape anywhere. I don't like it at all :(

I understand your connection might not be great but you could be mounted (or gargoyle flying) with invis precasted and run through if you absolutely need to. Another option would be to go to Fel where there isn't any spawn and if I had to guess would be empty from any other players to grief you or PK.

You complain a lot...and every time someone responds with trying to help you, you shoot it down with another complaint as to why their solution wont work for YOU. Might be time to take a break.

I apologize if that sounded harsh, but maybe re-read each of your two topics. Multiple people have tried to help you. In fact you've gotten more traction and help than Ive seen on this forum in awhile yet its not good enough in your replies. Get some fresh air friend. You are playing a game with alot of other people, its not going to be exactly the way YOU want it. And you know this, you've been here a long time which makes the complaining all the more puzzling.

Sorry if I'm bothering you again but there's something strange that I would like someone to explain to me. On Europa I thought there wasn't an invasion in the solen Hive but there is. Very few monsters, I could do it alone. But suddenly a red guy came and immediately cast a spell on me. I ran away but I wondered why a red character could stay in the solen hive of Trammel. He wasn't a monster. I don't remember what it was called. As soon as he saw me he turned around, I saw him casting a spell on me (so it was a person, not a monster) but I ran away immediately, I was almost next to the exit. So can the reds also stay in Trammel? This sounds new to me. And I was in Trammel for sure. Shouldn't it be impossible for a red to stay in Trammel? Have things changed with this invasion?

I searched a lot but I only found Neira the Necromancer. Who is the Necro Boss?

Is the Solen Hive constantly populated with event enemies? I've done a number of invasions now and the town criers always direct towards one of the main cities, never to the hive, so I've not been down there.

It seems when the current town invasion ends, the underground invasion ends too. Small break before it starts back up again.

@Ivory Norwind I think it would be a good idea if, when there are publish notes on uo.com, you put them through the translator so that you have some idea what is going on in the game.
