Heritage - A modern free shard

Heritage is a free UO shard that launched in January of 2016.

We strive to emulate the combat mechanics and basic skill systems of modern UO while leveraging our programming experience to create a balanced world that feels similar but is also unique in many ways. While we follow the general path of modern UO’s development we use our own knowledge and ability to look back at what has not worked in UO over the years to tailor, what we believe to be, a more balanced shard.

For the last seven years, we have investigated and fixed thousands of bugs for the ServUO emulator while also accumulating over 7,500 posts of valuable information. We do our best to address and fix bugs reported to us right away.

Heritage has begun to update a lot of older systems while adding in some new QOL content.

Two small but upgrades I'd like to spotlight:

Next we have Item Search. A new option for home owners to instantly search and confirm/deny the existence of an item in that house. I know I always hated digging through all my chests looking for something.

The number of times I thought I lost something but it was just in a container and I missed it, this is a real step forward for people like me who label chests and then just dump stuff in the wrong ones....:oops:
