I heard from my cousin's sister's brother that Remove Trap was not required to open the chest.....

Ugh... I want to test, but it's dropped twice and wiped my character

And with this new "Balance" will chests contain Legendaries. Also any chance of New Brit Rewards?

Well, I'd be testing it if TC would stay up long enough for me to do... anything.

It would be cool if they added the ToT minor artifacts to Tokuno maps specifically, Ilshenar minors in ilsh maps etc etc... I guess they'd have to come up with something for Trammel, Malas & Termur. and perhaps Eodon (technically, Eodon & Termur are the same facet) but something unique to the facet would be ideal, cause in the end it's all about the quality & quantity of the loot... which always ends up pointing toward fel T-maps which don't have SA properties.

I'll actually test this some. :D

Ya I know the feeling. I copy my tamer t hunter over was on TC1 Trinsic Inn, the shards crashes, then back up, my tamer t hunter is not there, so back to Sonoma to copy again only to be told,No you cannot do that. I forgot you have to wait 24 hrs before I can try again, and I rather NOT make a new character as I have to spend time equipping and setting and I rather not bother with it

It's letting me copy my tamer over repeatedly... just adding five minutes to the interval inbetween each attempt... up to 20 minutes now. Ugh. I'm going to make some food first. Maybe it'll stabilize by the time I get back.

It's just not the test center it seems to also be the shards on the list under sakura.

Looks like the value in turn-in points for items that previously didn't have any turn-in value should be increased a lot.

Examples:

an artifact drop Trammel Despise (hailstorm, unicorn mane woven sandals/talons, despicable quiver/unforgiven veil, compassion's eye) are worth 2000 points each.

but according to the new patch notes, a shadowguard artifact (I assume any type) is only 10 points.... seems like it should be scaled up quite a significant bit.

Was going to test but unavailable, So Here is my question on one of the notes
Chest Quality is determined at dig time based on the digger’s modified cartography skill. Now just how do I modify my cartography skill. I know there is a talisman for a % increase on making stuff. But there are no skill increase that I know of. And this will also make us keep the skill on until after we dig the chest and not just decode

"Chest Quality is determined at dig time based on the digger’s modified cartography skill."

1> Sooo.. Good news for the changes, and also kind of bad news, since to have best Chest Quality (and I presume LOOT quality? Though it does not say..) will require that you must have cartograpy on the T-Hunter, (and also Mining if you need that), at the time of digging up the chest. So that would require we further modify the toon? Previously, all you hand to use carto for was to decode Tmap, and store in the Davies locker, and then stone the carto. Now you will have to have carto on to have better quality of loot/chest?
Is this what is in the plan?
2> Also there is no info on level of Power Scrolls that will drop in Fel T-maps. Interesting idea, and a "granular" approach to victim hunting, where the PKer, would have to look all over for PS farmers now, as opposed to victims being in a pre-determined area spawn etc.
**Bracing for the outcry for putting PS on any type of T-Hunt, anywhere.** Will wait and see..:slap::beer:

Kyronix just told me on the UO forum that this may be true in the final product, but for now, you do need remove trap to open the chest or it will turn to dust
Me: I thought remove trap was going to be an extra, but telekinesis turns the whole chest to dust (I haven't been able to dig up a chest to test this [because of a bug that kept me from digging up any chest, which they are also looking into], but people keep complaining about it in general chat, so it's apparently par for course)
Kyronix: Nothing related to Remove Trap, Traps, Telekenesis, is finalized. What you see won't resemble the final implementation at all. For now use the test center commands to set your RT & DH skills to remove the trap
