10 Random Questions (Part XIX)

[Prince Caspian]

1. Not to sound like the kid sitting by the Christmas Tree asking his parents, "Is that ALL??," but are there deeper levels to the Stygian Abyss? It's a large dungeon, sure, but in UO lore it was incomprehensibly massive.

2. What do we do with the treasure sand in the King's Crypt?

3. Has anyone tried to plant the Silver Sapling seed in a pot back home? Anything come of it?

4. Is Frostwood even attainable any more? Is there a good strategy, or is it strictly random if you get it at this point?

5. I can use a DP-soaked shuriken with my ninja without poisoning skills, correct? Does the poisoner take the karma hit when I do so?

6. Now that we have Gargoyles as a playable race, will gargoyles in the wild attack their winged brethren?

7. Can we mark in the Abyss?

8. I can't find the Raptors. Where are they in Ter'Mur?

9. Is there a chart anywhere that shows the exact HP regen factor in relation to Ninjitsu for cat or dog form?

10. Whats with the blue/purple sparkly areas? Do they mark places gargoyles may fly to?

2. What do we do with the treasure sand in the King's Crypt?

Throw it on the floor.

3. Has anyone tried to plant the Silver Sapling seed in a pot back home? Anything come of it?

Not I.

4. Is Frostwood even attainable any more? Is there a good strategy, or is it strictly random if you get it at this point?

Yes & don't know respectively.

5. I can use a DP-soaked shuriken with my ninja without poisoning skills, correct? Does the poisoner take the karma hit when I do so?

Yes & yes. (& you could probably find out quite easily)

6. Now that we have Gargoyles as a playable race, will gargoyles in the wild attack their winged brethren?

Yes.

7. Can we mark in the Abyss?

I don't think so. (& you could probably find out quite easily)

8. I can't find the Raptors. Where are they in Ter'Mur?

Several places, for one, across the bridge near (South West) Tome Of Kings entrance, & a few others, there may be spawn maps available by now. (check the hunters guide etc)

9. Is there a chart anywhere that shows the exact HP regen factor in relation to Ninjitsu for cat or dog form?

The regen from Cat/Dog form is Ninjitsu skill divided by 3. At 120 Ninjitsu this is 40 HPR, which is 4 HP per second. In addition you can have 2 HPR from being human and up to 18 on items for a total of 60 (6 HP per second).

10. Whats with the blue/purple sparkly areas? Do they mark places gargoyles may fly to?

Depends where you mean, but probably, there are some overland towers which I suspect are the 'Gargoyle highways' across Ter-Mur. There are also various points that Gargoyles can fly over in the Abyss.

1. Not to sound like the kid sitting by the Christmas Tree asking his parents, "Is that ALL??," but are there deeper levels to the Stygian Abyss? It's a large dungeon, sure, but in UO lore it was incomprehensibly massive.

There are two champ spawn areas connected to it.

2. What do we do with the treasure sand in the King's Crypt?

Drop it out of your pack and wait for a nice surprise.

3. Has anyone tried to plant the Silver Sapling seed in a pot back home? Anything come of it?

When you click on it, it plants itself in the ground if you're in the Abyss. If you're outside of the Abyss, it's probably like the Seed of Renewal (an imbuing ingredient) and won't give a targeting cursor to plant it or use it in any other way.

4. Is Frostwood even attainable any more? Is there a good strategy, or is it strictly random if you get it at this point?

I pick a very large area to chop wood and just hope I find a tree or two that gives frostwood. Then I just go back and collect frostwood from it once or twice a day until it runs out. I keep the rune I marked and keep checking the tree for a few more days in case it changes back to frostwood. (Mining spots often seem to revert back to the high-end ore after they switch to something like dull copper for a day or so.)

6. Now that we have Gargoyles as a playable race, will gargoyles in the wild attack their winged brethren?

The undead ones do.

7. Can we mark in the Abyss?

No. Can't use gate spell either. There are also a few very small areas immediately surrounding the entrances to and exits from the Abyss where you also can't use recall, sacred journey, or teleport spells.

8. I can't find the Raptors. Where are they in Ter'Mur?

The easiest location to find is to the SW on the island between the Holy City area and the "mainland" where the Royal City is located.

10. Whats with the blue/purple sparkly areas? Do they mark places gargoyles may fly to?

Screenshot? Not sure what you're talking about.

8. I can't find the Raptors. Where are they in Ter'Mur?

Farmer Nash's field can spawn raptors, as well as silver serpents, snakes, mongbats and void demons.
