I think that's the 'can't see' aspect of the place. Unless you're standing almost on top of the pet, it can't see you - and therefore loses loyalty. And of course you can't stand that close because of the area effect.
I've given up. I can't find one that I can actually reach.

They're not that hard to kill. They drop green things called Blightborn Slime. Just target the tile next to you with a summon, or tell your pet to guard you (although it seems like tamers aren't a great idea due to a previously mentioned loyalty LOS situation), shouldn't be too much of a problem. They are slimes, though, so I imagine they wreck weapons. They poison you, have pretty high dex, and they have area-damage which can make hiding tough.

I personally like the sewers. Think about it..in real life..if you go down to a sewer, you really can't see much, even with a flashlight...you can HEAR things down there...squeeky rats, skittering bugs and the like...but can't really SEE them until they are right up on you nibbling your toes lol. So the unable to attack until they are right on top of you thing makes sense to me. When we had to go kill rats for the coins during that one event....(No I can't remember which one!) The gold soverigns and that? It was pretty easy...these slimes, yeah they hurt....ALOT! I go down there on my archer, easier to keep myself healed that way with healing rather then casting a spell cus I can heal and shoot at the same time. I lure a few off to the ladder and go up and down if I get too low, did die once but the healer is right there so it's not an issue.

I don't know why anyone would HUNT down there other then for events....just rats and froggies...and runnin through there isn't hard..it's very..sewer-like....so I don't think it needs to be changed at all.. maybe do something about the spawn in the water that can hit you but you can't hit....but again, I think that's realistic, for anyone that's actually been down in a sewer lol.

If Martyna's re-vamp ends up looking like this video, then I'll be on board (pun intended, har har har...):

Tram or Fel?
This was LS, Tram, if it's different on every shard, maybe it's EM driven? I'll go back later today and look again, nice color, stackable, no timer, least that's something.

The dungeon/tunnel whatever you want to call it needs a massive overhaul to make it less of a P.I.T.A. That area has always been totally frustrating. I like that it's all mazelike and all but does it really have to have litterally dozens of area's where crap can spawn but you can't reach it???? It can sure reach you but no way you can get to it and then if by chance you do you can't LOOT it... so waste of effort.

@ G.v.P As for Blighted... I always thought that creatures like Dragons, and GARGOYLES shouldn't suffer the "walk" effect since HELLO not walking in the sands flying over them! Do you see my feet getting bogged down in the sinking sands when I'm 2 feet or more above them!?!? Just saying.

The NPC isn't up yet. But there is something interesting in northern Ter Mur...

There is also a completely unrelated big change in Tokuno. One that might make you facepalm at the notion that the Devs thought we needed another one of these.


G.v.P. No Teenage Mutant Ninja/Hero Turtles in the sewers thanks. Or would they be alien turtles now that Michael Bay has sunk his totally heinous claws into things?

you mean ToT? mesanna said around thanksgiving that they planned on startin another one this year. Should leave it on permanently since the arties arent as popular anymore.

Nope, not ToT. This a map change.

I agree that ToT should be turned on and left on though. However, I think we're kinda bored of the old arties...

Good point. Since player Gargoyles came after ML I wonder if they considered sand not being a factor or just wanted to make player movement equal across the board. Realistically, there should be some sort of flight zone for Gargs there, I agree.

It would be cool if the integrated several areas to give Gargoyles flight zones. I just hope, before UO ends, they make it so Gargoyles can sit down in chairs without losing sync with the Classic Client. That's probably my biggest Garg complaint about UO since Gargoyles came out, and I can't believe EA hasn't fixed it yet because it makes them look so tacky as game developers.

Hahaha. Samurai Empire TMNTs. $4.99 rental from Origin's store ;).

I don't think they 'sit' in the traditional human way, more of a squat, like a cat does, sitting on its haunches. Those weird non-garg garg things in SA they added as a surprise? Every time I see one walking i think - Why does that thing keep squatting when it walks? just gross

Some people still like the dyes.
Don't matter if you like they dyes they took them away..... and then they gave those lame non-stackable 1 dye per bottle dyes. And lets not forget the year they gave us dyes that are just the blah metalic sort of dyes and only the most drab of drab colors.

the only way I'd care about the dyes again would be if they actually gave GOOD colors again..... and if you got more than 1 frelling use out of them or they STACKED or could be COMBINED.

Now for those of us who have been plagued by the real world so that they can't play... what is this blightborn slime needed for?

I actually like the sewer design, i've had quite a few good chases down there and it's a nice shortcut to hoppers bog, it may be different tram side (the few tram side dungeons i've seen/read about seem to have 4-5x the spawn and tons of random "extra" trash mobs in them spawning in random locations that don't make much sense) but fel side there's nothing really down there but a few gators and no real visibility issues (unless of course you're on a path above where they're at). It's complicated enough to allow multiple paths in and out to each side but simple enough that it's easy to remember what goes where, it's a sewer though so i don't think a dragon would even fit in there, much less do well (there's actually a SIGN at the enterence that says to not bring your pets in!)

When you started talking about poorly designed area I immediately started looking around tokuno, malas, and termur, lol.

So it isn't someone doing downward dog naked in the tub while melting?
Miss...I do believe you've been browsing the darker side of the internet FAR too much lately...(btw...thanks for that mental image..) It's evil slime posessing a bathtub trying to snack on a baby...though if you really want to be technical it's a miniature set with a rubber tub with a glove attached in the middle covered in pepto-bismol.

there is a new slime creature in Brit sewers that drops a item. It is believed that the item the slime drops is an ingredient for the next phase of the Event arc, which will go active in july through august.
