Thanks for replies!
So many players still play UO and in Europa Shard? It seems totally empty at Britain bank!
I'm aiming for PvM mainly
I'm thinking
Swords 120
Tatics 120
Antomy 100
Chivarly 60? Not sure
Bushido 100
urmm Not sure what else LOL!
What should my STR/IN/Dex be
I want to kick arse in PvM tbh! and role play.
P.S
Doe you still get guilds that declare war against each otehr but its all roleplay, not all out killing each other when u see them,. but role play like acting and stuff when u see them and doing organised events of war where its all roganised so no looting or any dodgyness.
Rules.
I remeber years ago I was in a guild we had war against another, rocked. All role played and met up for big wars and story lines of sacred things we protected etc.
Best fun I ever had in my life
LOL!
Like many others here I welcome you back to the grand ole UO!
Well to start off you need gold as you stated!
What you could do is hang around New Haven and pick up the mysterious Miasmas chests filled with armor pieces..Some of the stuff is not bad actually...If you have a mage I reckon you can get a full 100 lrc suit out of the chests...Well my T-Hunter regurally drop chests filled with loot at New Haven Bank for the new, young or returning players...and if the loot aint good well you can sell them at the npc's and you have a nicely colored chest for your house if you have one.
Now to your skills. You said you are aiming for:
Swords 120
Tatics 120
Antomy 100
Chivarly 60? Not sure
Bushido 100
urmm Not sure what else LOL! (you forgot healing *winks*)
Well as you are basically broke rolleyes: you might want to consider that a 120 swords scroll run around 5 million or so and the tac scroll goes for around 2 million. Now I dont know if you have a tamer or other char that can farm enough gold in a reasonable time? But lets say you dont ...What you could do is get macing instead of swords. Macing 120 scrolls run around as low as 500k...Or if you do want to keep swords why not settle for 110 or 115 for the time being?
And as you stated that you would possibly like to roleplay a 110 weopon skill is still good enough for rp guild pvp. Another good thing about rp guilds is that once you are in the guild you really get a lot of help
Here is a nice cheap template for you:
110 swords
110 tactics
110 anat
110 parry
100 focus
100 healing
80 chiv (enough that you wont fizzle too often when you use EOO in pvm)
altogehter that gives us 720 skillpoints as you stated you are at least 7 years old I take that you have 720 skillpoints..and if not drop healing to 90 (the min skill for not failing on a heal) or chiv to 70 (which is still good enough)..
Altogether this template will cost you around 200k or so, which shouldnt be that hard to acquire
As you noticed I left bushido out of your template. Well I have a few reasons for that. Some of the main rp guilds in Europa do not allow samurais in there midsts which will put you under some restrictions to which guild you might want to join. Another reason is with bushido you will have a pretty tight template when it comes to mana. As you correctly said in rp guilds only GM gear is allowed so you cant wear any MR armor which is why I put focus into your template. of course you can instead of healing have bushido (heal with confidence)...but if you remember correctly rp guilds like to crossheal each other...and what kind of warrior would you be if you cant heal your brother next to you?
Some RP guilds allow you to wear magic armor outside of rp'ing (some of us rp'ers have different views about this)
with a halfway decent suit and ogre slayer you can take on artic ogre lords for gold.
This template can still hold its on in a rp guild...and while you progress you can also change him.....
Another interesting template would be a tank mage...yes they do work in RP! I found that out myself *grins*
How about this one?
11o swords ( although I would prefer macing because you can use better specials one handed and the 120 scroll is much cheaper)
110 anat (combined with 110 eval int you have 120 defense wrestling while unarmed)
110 tactics
110 eval int
110 med
110 magery
What to do with the rest of the 60 skill points? How about alchemy? Yes you heard right...alchemy. Bombers are very popular in RP guilds...Throwing a conglag grenade on a defensive position of an enemy guild really will do some noticeable damage in there ranks when you have 60 alchy and you can chug greater heal and cure pots while fighting one handed. Now I did state that a warrior should have healing...with a template like that you are no longer considerd a warrior in most rp guilds but rather an arcanist or mageling *grins*and you can heal your brothers while in a defensive position with magery of course.
Or if not alchemy put the rest of the skillpoints on focus. or even drop tactics to 90 (min skill for the secondary special move) and you can even have 80 alchy This template could be a bit hard to play for someone who just got back...Not sure how experienced you where when you left the game.
Well for your information I am currently changing my pure mage into a tank mage *grins*
Without alchy training this template is a bit more expensive then one mentioned before...but as stated here on your thread some of these scrolls are even thrown away!
As you probably guessed I myself play in a rp guild on europa...I am not going to advertise which guild you should join *winks* But if you are interested in contacts just send me a PM. And one last point...No one expects you to be a PVP god in a rp guild..Just play decent with good roleplay and you wont have any problems at all *smiles*
