Publish 57- Even more reason to go back to Felluca!!

[THP]

All great news...

When killing the champion, players who worked the spawn will have a chance of receiving a special reward. If none of the people who worked the spawn are present on the subserver when the boss dies, one of the top attackers will randomly be given the reward.

Scroll of Transcendence:

This cursed scroll will allow you to instantly train your character in the skill and by the number of points indicated on the scroll provided you have the room for it. All skills (including non-Powerscroll skills such as begging and remove trap) will be available. The skill on the SoT is randomly selected. The number of points per scroll will range from 0.1 to 0.5 in Trammel rulesets, and from 0.6 to 1.0 in Felucca. There is no timer on using these scrolls.

As Meraktus isn’t a standard champion spawn (no altar), you will not get those scrolls from working that spawn.

In Felucca, players will have a chance of receiving either the 105 Powerscrolls or the Scrolls of Transcendence. The Virtue of Protection applies on Scrolls of Transcendence in Felucca only.

Special Rewards from the Champion:

When killing the champion, players who have worked a certain percentage of the spawn will have a chance of receiving one of three types of items:

1. A boss specific replica;
2. A boss specific decorative item;
3. A shared replica.

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.

Decorative items will include some animated tiles, statuettes, furniture, etc. themed around the boss they dropped from.

Worthless thread!

HURRAY!

Thanks for bumping a thread that's the exact same thing as the thread 3 pages long right below it. Nice job there chief!

/bump

 

[Dol'Gorath]

People doing champs in Ilshenar should be fun. Especially people getting roflstomped by paragon dragons and such hehe.

About time they made these non-fel spawns useful.

 

[THP]

So chief!!!! Lol !!!! somebody/ some ass dug deep into pages 9 and 10 and revitalized the other thread....woop woop....so what??? why are peeps soooooooooooooooo fu.... negative of late......

More posts the fu..... merrier i say!!!

 

[THP]

ohhhhhh chiefs and chiefesses.....This single post as kinda revitlaized a big debate!!!!!!!!!!!!

Please chiefs and chiefesses THINK B4 U POST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

''why waste my time? is the answer to the Question on your mind''

 

[Teeshy]

That thread hasn't been to page 9 or 10 since it was created yesterday - unless you have some weird setting to only see 2 threads per page? =P I don't think it's even fallen to the bottom of page 1 yet =P

 

[THP]

CAN WE GIVE THE NEGATIVE CRAP A REST!!!!!

The post is aimed at getting peeps back to fel!!!

More reason to come baCK TO FELL

stop being so f..... negative....

Lets breathe life into UO not draw it out.....JEEEEEEZE

 

[Teeshy]

Not being negative at all actually, I was trying to figure out why you would think this had been on page 9 or 10. I even went to my CP and played with settings to see if you had something set weird in your board options, cos I don't know how you coulda seen this on page 9 otherwise =)

The original thread hasn't fallen off the first page for me at all since it was posted yesterday morning =)

Really no need for you to rant at my post at all =P

Re: Publish 57- Even more reason to go back to Felluca!!

Maybe I'm not reading Regine's comments correctly from the other thread (and I'm pretty sure my reading comprehension isn't that bad) but I'm not understanding how this gives people "more reason" to go to Felucca? The only thing different between the trammel ruleset facets and Felluca in regards to the rewards will still be the powerscrolls, as they have always been. We can go to the Ilshenar spawns and get the replicas, boss specific items, and the Scrolls of Transcendence same as we can in Felucca. We just can't get the powerscrolls in Ilshenar (which is as it should be, imo) so the only thing that has really changed is new loot on both facet rulesets. Can anyone explain just how this gives people more of a reason to go to Fel instead when they can get the same rewards from either facet?

The new scrolls in Felucca got higher values.

"The number of points per scroll will range from 0.1 to 0.5 in Trammel rulesets, and from 0.6 to 1.0 in Felucca. "

Just to avoid more confusion...

i still stand by my original post

[Viper09]

Ok, how long before this turns into a Fel Vs Tram thread? Place your bets!

I don't see how this will get people to go to fel, though. Only reason would be to get higher Transcendence scrolls.

However, I do see this new publish finally bringing life to that barren land called Ilshenar. I only really go there to hunt pixies and those angel creatures.

 

[BadManiac]

So, hang on a second. I can either go to Felucca, get PK'ed and be guaranteed to NOT get a Scroll of Transcendence of 0.5 - 1.0 skill gain.
OR I can do a champ in one of the Trammel ruleset areas, and be guaranteed to always get a 0.1 - 0.5 scroll.

And this is supposed to get me to go to Fel how exactly?

If you are desperate enough you can convince yourself of anything. He is just hoping this will revitalize felucca. I personally do not see it either.

As much as I'd like to believe it will revitalize fel the truth is that as long as the same rewards are offered in Tram rulesets it'll never get new people to fel. I'm kinda disappointed that both the replicas and SoT scrolls will be given as rewards on both facets. Making one of them only available in fel would give incentive for new people to go there that normally wouldn't.

I'm not sure why I'm even posting this here since there is a huge thread about the same thing just below it but oh well.

 

[Farsight]

For example, if you're doing Oaks:

10% no reward
10% chance at Orc Chieftain Helm
45% chance of either the wind spirit or one of the 4 animated water tiles
35% chance of one of 6 Replicas (Survival Knife, Djinny Ring, Lt. Sash, Samaritan Robe, Detective Boots or Knowledge Robe).

Note that Oaks has the most shared replicas. Most other champs have 3 or 4.

As far as people farming the Tram ruleset spawns, keep in mind that there is a timer before the altar is self-reactivated. You will probably remember the days of ToT when we were all sitting around waiting for the spawn to begin again.

From this post (in the other, longer thread) we can draw a few conclusions.

1. The highest demand item (the LT guard sash) will be an Oaks specific replica. There's a chance at others having it, but we know Oaks for certain now.
2. Oaks in Fel can be spawned much more frequently than the Oaks in Ilshenar, since the Fel-Oaks is attached to the alter and the Ilsh-Oaks is on a timer.

This means that the best chance of getting the Orc Chief helm or the LT guard sash, assuming things stand as they are, would be to attach yourself to a dominant spawning guild and hitting the Oaks spawn.

Everyone knows this, and on many shards, multiple guilds will likely fight over the spawn.

I suspect that not many Trammel players would be tempted to visit Oaks for the spawning, but many Fel players will be there for the combat alone.

So it may go a little way toward revitalizing Fel.

(By the way, if the numbers are accurate, the LT sash will drop in 1 in 20 Oaks. That's a lot of fighting to get your MR/LRC/Int sash)

 

[Sindris]

I have never understood the frenzy to get people back into fel. We all know why most people don't go there, why do people keep insisting it will change just because the devs keep dangling carrots?

 

[THP]

Hey hands up in the air!!!

Iam a true Blue... end... i dont pvp...end

But i spend at least 50% my time in felluca stealthing cause iam IdocHunter playstyle

So every now and then i get found!! and killed!! so what??? booo hooo

Did the pker geta buzz out of killing me??i dont put up much of a fight... aint worth it..... what did it cost me?? a few k in gold insurance at worst.. a quick rez from a npc healer... stealth back to body ... re-equip and start again!!

Does it really mater anymore when u die in UO? Its just a indurance to me!!

Hey but if this breathes live back into FEL Champs .... fOR SOME AWESOME REWARDS.....count me in on the Blue side!!!!....LETS KICK SOME RED ass

Actually sir i need to correct you on this.

The boss specific item for oaks is the orc chieften helm (30%hci!)
the boss specific deco items include the water tiles.
and the 6 replicas which will drop on ALL bosses include the sash.

the difference is as i read it that oaks will give a chance of dropping one of 6 at one time whereas others will have a chance of 3 so the chances of gettin said item at oaks will be higher due to it always being on offer.

and the drop rate will be ALOT lower 35% chance of a 1 in 6 chance?!?

As long as they keep free ganking alive, no matter what they do I and my mates will never do champ spawns in Fel. ever.

We do not enjoy working a spawn for hours at a time just to have some yoyo who thinks he is a big shot come and take it all away form us.

I have played since Beta and back then I left because of all the hours I spent gathering resources just to have some clown (whom I would like to see how tough they really are in real life) take it all away from me.

If they put in voluntary PVP I would go. But as long as anyone can come up and kill you for no reason and against your will I will not.

 

[RavenWinterHawk]

There is no reason to go back to Fel or do anything in UO.


The game is functionally broken.
Notice everything they added. Saturation in a week.
Notice the ever building piles of gold with nothing to sink it into.


Translation.
All these changes are worthless once the novelty wears off.

Anything in the game thats added now-a-days can be traded or bought for in a week or 2 for nada. Dont believe me... check out the stuff from last event. dont believe me watch the xmas stuff saturate.

Some bloke even is crying for a characture start template for theives. 85 everything. What have we come to in this game. Instant gratifaction. Instant skill building. Instant storage of skills.



Down on the game. Well yes. They keep trying and it keeps dieing.


No exlporability. No randomization. If the sandbox is being turned to concrete.

What gives Devs.

What rhymes with LArkLaW.

 

[Aroma]

Come back to fel sheesh decent people never went there to begin with. What makes you think I would go back? I never went for power scrolls or the excuse for pvp to begin with. Until the cheating and over poweredness is dealt with i have no intent of ever stepping foot in fel. Even if everything was quadruple in fel I wont go. I am glad ilsh got some attention for a change makes it worth going to now.

Yes, and there´s the rub.
WHY in the hell should we fight (at minimum)20 Oaks in FELL, to get a sash that we CANT
implement in the armor??????
the time it will take to REPLACE a LOST(0Dura)item,is the SAME (more or less)time such an item will last.
I BIG LOL here.
THIS complete Fell-Item thingie is a poor hamster race.
maybe the first weeks it will work. but it ENDS for sure if the player realice that this dullness is only a fell-reactivation try(a LAMEone btw.,as always)
I would say: all fellfans, should do the champs in fell by herself,dont wait for blue player, get the items by YOURE OWN work.
We hould abandoned FELL to death. this dullness there must have an end!
Dev´s are still on the woodway,if they try to bring the fishes with flasher into fell.
I doubt that the majority of player are dumb.
Peace

Free ganking? I guess you just want everything in the game handed to you on a carefree silver platter. If you want to play a game that lets you turn PvP off and on as you wish, try WoW.

LOL, i think your answer works 100% vice versa!
Why do you want to pvp to player who dont want to pvp, when you want to pvp??????

faction,guild and party war should be the pvp in uo, and only those !
most of the so called pvp fell player are poor assassine nothing else,THAT is what makes fell to a such poor place

 

[GalenKnighthawke]

There's debates over whether or not most of the scroll/replica hunting will be in Felucca or Trammel.

Actually no...Most of it will be in the Trammel rules facets, just like most players of the game are in those facets and never go to FElucca.

I guess I should say there are debates over whether or not the Felucca activity occurring as a result of this will be significant or appreciable.

I, for one, think it will be. I think many people, especially if they are already inclined to be in Felucca anyway, will decide it's way more worth it to try for a high-end Scroll of Transcendence than to try for two or more low-end ones. And I think many people, especially if they are already inclined to be in Felucca anyway, will prefer to camp the Felucca spawns than they are to camp the equivalent Ilshenar spawns. The PvM part of it simply much easier and the spawns can be done much faster.

Handed to me on a platter? Do you get the concept at all? I worked for hours getting resources and when I had enough some clown would gank me and take it all. How is that handing it me on a platter? It's more like handing it to a cowardly ganker on a platter. I do all the work, he takes it all away in one clean swoop.

It's people like you who ruin the game with your attitude. Big and bad go kill a crafter.

Handed to me? You got it backwards.

personally i think its people like you who moan bout dying so much that has ruined the game!!and are still trying it seems.

also personally im glad that people are not going to fel means me and guildies will get ALOT more items than any of you who are gna camp tram wiv another 50+ ppl for one boss...really like those odds of gettin your items!

 

[THP]

My main point is ..if enough blues show up at a specific fel champ or whatever in either guilds or just a show of numbers in the fel dungeons...and kick some small red guilds ass... Hey lets be honest theres normally only 3-4 well prepared reds at max !! then the reds will lose there strangle hold on this fel spawn....giving the braver tram players A MUCH BETTER CHANCE of getting some of the new Items....

Hey does it really matter when u die in uo...come on ya blues lets gank the gankers for a change!!!

personally i think:

1.nobody moan about dying itself, NEVER
the only reason was and is, the assassine behavior ! nothing else

2. I am soo glad you will have fun ,i realy grant you the fun and all the items you will get.
you see? does this apply vice versa ? sure NOT, because

you are so upset ,because WE(the majority) dont do your so.'s bidding

NOT? you must,because i want that ! PLAY with ME,grrrr....................

My Bidding?!?

lol my bidding is to all stay away from fel so i can make more money, which it seems your gna do. ill be honest i dont see more coming to fel because most dont have the intestinal fortitude to fight back! there are ways to beat all hackers that even i a trammy know.

TEAMWORK is one of the best!

being in the largest guild on GL im sure ill be asked to go help in trammel spawns which i will do, shame that vice versa doesnt work!

but as i said good luck getting your items and if not and your on GL holla im sure i can find summin to sell you

Thats what im talking about lets have a trammy vs fel fight if your on GL u know DC will be there!!!
and judging by recent events itll be one hell of a fight!!!
lets get a few more blue guilds GOF with Your help DC and GOF could over run fel just through sheer numbers!!!
