When I pointed this out on GenChat the first day of its release in Atlantic and wanting to warn other players (as it had just happened to me with a certain player stealing my ambushers), oddly, I was to BLAME. I was told point blank: "DON'T TAKE THE ROADS and they won't follow and steal your ambushers" . What! Really!?
I wanted to reach through MY screen and CHOKE that person to saying it was MY fault for being there doing a trade run. How dare I, right?
On a SIDE note: I have been running Trade Runs for several months now and noticed once they nerfed them with this publish I no longer get the "nice" rewards , mainly just crafter materials. As listed on UO Guide, I do see that "honest" trades rewards have changed, or am I missing something?
Also, I have to get 4 items in my trades now. I have YET to actually get a unique piece of loot off the ambushers. I used to like doing these trade quests for the end reward, but if I am being ambushed by dishonest players and they steal my ambushers loot or I actually kill my own ambushers and there is no unique loot (which has been my case so far) and I am getting jewels and dragon scales instead of the pink scrolls I used get, this seems o be a complete and utter waste of time now.
Anyone else not getting the unique ambushers loot?
