Let's not kick a gift horse in the mouth.Want to know what I think? Fix the damn lag...
The replica's are the only part of the proposed changes I have concerns about. Would it be possible to see what type of mods these weapons have on them before we voice an opinion? My concern is that since EM's and Seers created these items, they may well be very overpowering.The replica’s are artifacts originally created by the former EMs and Seers. They have the same mods and stats as the originals but you cannot use Power of Fortification on them. They can be repaired, insured and blessed. Some of them will only be obtainable from a specific boss whereas others will drop on various champs.
Why would you want it to count against the rot i would like to see poeple able to raise skill faster maybe more would play siege thenI'm against the replica's, we don't need more ub3r items, but the Scrolls seem ok, as long as the skill gain counts AGAINST your RoT gain for the day. IE: Eat a scroll during RoT for 1.0 skill and if the skill in 70's you have 4.0 points to go for the day. .
O wow... I actually agree with kat on something.... *edit* If you are putting in the shroud of Tal'keesh could you make it so you could cbd it though?The replica's are the only part of the proposed changes I have concerns about.

The rest of it sounds fine for Siege, IMO, but yeah, I have to agree with Kage here. Fix the lag!!!
Waiting for more info on the replica's before I cast a vote.
You are welcome.Thanks for the link, Tomas!
Item bless deeds are in the replica list, that's enough for a resounding **NO** right there. And the more we ask for it to be tweaked for Siege the greater chance that something goofy slips through the cracks.Waiting for more info on the replica's before I cast a vote.
That's the thing though.One of the reasons i left a prodo shard was it became to easy.
The use of items to make templates instead of real skill.
I vote no to both and the faction items.
Not to say when i get my skills done i wont be joining factions for the items
I feel this is exactly right.And people will have a reason to actually go out and hunt things... and our pks might actually pk.
I do believe this is the first post of yours I've ever truly agreed with BOTH the message and the tone used. Kudos!That's the thing though.
The reason prodo is the way it is is because of item insurance. You have stuff lots of people don't and it's a huge advantage.
If siege turned on the item faucet, doom arties, cc's, good weps and armor... then we'd use the stuff!! We'd loot, hunt for, play... for stuff.
TOO many people run stealth hide here... want to know why? Because it pays to survive.
How many people have quit because they lost crap?
You know what I don't get about the crowd here is that Siege is designed for this.
Players go out and hunt, they sell stuff, pks kill ppl and loot bodies, so on and so forth.
It's complete fluidity... and so what if an orny costs 50k. That means more people will run it more often and you will loot it more often. You will have fun with stuff... more often. You won't be scared to take on a competitor, but would go out and fight because dying with a GOOD suit wouldn't suck so damn much.
And people will have a reason to actually go out and hunt things... and our pks might actually pk.
I seriously don't get how this community thinks having items to use isn't a good thing.
Not to mention the fact that we'll be more like prodo... it's easier to balance combat across UO if we're using the same stuff... they are.
Agreed. Would be really cool to have some of the prodo EM items on Siege. Keeping the current CBD rule in place-Cannot bless clothing items with mods!I say bring it on. Just don't let them be blessed.
I hope everyone who's saying 'bring them on' is also saying **NO Item BLess Deed's** [read the list carefully people!] I don't want them to just turn it on for Siege and then all the sudden we have a few lucky individuals running around with a complete blessed suit.I say bring it on. Just don't let them be blessed.
Yeah, I saw that on the list, but just assumed the DEVs are smart enough and fully aware of Siege's rule set, to even think about putting IBDs in..I hope everyone who's saying 'bring them on' is also saying **NO Item BLess Deed's** [read the list carefully people!] I don't want them to just turn it on for Siege and then all the sudden we have a few lucky individuals running around with a complete blessed suit.

There will definitely not be any items bless deeds.Yeah, I saw that on the list, but just assumed the DEVs are smart enough and fully aware of Siege's rule set, to even think about putting IBDs in..
*coughs* Right DEVs?
Since you are stopping by to visit us, is there a list of definite replicas that will be available? The link someone provided here showed a list of all the event/EM items. You already said there would be no IBD's. Anything else being left out? Just curious.There will definitely not be any items bless deeds.
All the items up to Captain John's Hat, minus the Item Bless Deed, the vine cord sandals and the Wisp Fragments. It will also not be the Shroud of Tal'Keesh but the Crown of Tal'Keesh instead.Since you are stopping by to visit us, is there a list of definite replicas that will be available?

LoLItem bless deeds on Seige??? Are you people insane??? Mine as well through pretty leaves on all the trees, and throw pansyland on the moongate. Actually these would make us worse off than the trammys they atleast have to pay isurance. Why even bother to go out and fight if you cannot loot your opponents uber suit because he blessed the whole thing? I dont mind the scrolls as long as they conform to rot and the collar is WAY too overpowered.
Maybe you had not been here long enough to understand why most of us vote yes.I voted no, I came to Siege to get away from all the item madness and it followed me.
Faction Mages on Siege sport better suits then most prodo shards...
EA is just like a bad parent, give the kids a new toy to shut them up, please!
Watch out, next from EA "Castle in a box" just add water....
Even the thought of these items makes me puke!
But thanks for asking and have a nice day!
That was one of the best changes to the game in ages.After we got better access to highlevel stuff from Armslore bonus, runic tools and from loot, PvP had been more fun here when we can affort losing our items and still be able to run in items good enough to PvP
Wasn't on there when i posted Cali, must have been put in while i was typing.LoL
Read the post above yours ^^
The ole slip the post in there trick. Get ahold of Speedy for your items. I logged into vent but it was empty.Wasn't on there when i posted Cali, must have been put in while i was typing.
/AgreedThat was one of the best changes to the game in ages.
However, I agree with Mook. The faction items were a bad idea and the new items are just as bad. I would rather see all this arty stuff go away and people run in GM and runic armor.
I like the scrolls however.
