Considering that the majority of people that no longer play UO left BEFORE a nerf was needed for pet balls I would have to say that you are quite dilusional of what has been needed for this game for a LONG time, not just recent.

Example:
Let's see, when archers were in need of a nerf, they were given a blessed or insurable quiver so they wouldn't lose their arrows/bolts.

And the list goes on........

I have closed several of my accounts because fixing pvp has been ignored for years and had nothing to do with pet balls needing to be nerfed. I never said they didn't need attention. Holy hell there is a LOT more that should have been addressed before that even became an issue.

I disagree, I don't think archers need a nerf. They DID need a nerf when lightning strike was doing 100 dmg on a critical hit. Now it seems to be balanced, I don't have an issue killing archers.

What other issues are there that should come before the pet balls? They fixed the bokuto newb templates, etc. I think strangle is overpowered, but not moreso than the tamers with the petballs.

I think we can agree to disagree on this one.

i think a major fix that needs to be adressed is items taking the place of skill.

Mage Weps, Wands, Traped boxes, enhance pots, balanced bows, strangle, 4/6 chiv....ext...ext

The only reason someone is doing 35 Pnt moving shots to you is because your suit sux and your resists arent all balanced. My suits all 65+ and Ive never been hit by a 35 pnt moving shot. So if your gonna cry least fix your suit first then cry.

I know its a real skill my tamer has 120 and stays in trammel. What doesnt take real skill its oh lets say jewel for example. She does nothing to help the pet goes into animal form and just summons the pet ball. Doesnt have archery to help in animal form its hilarious. I hope she stays red for when the nerf comes in.

This is great. Now when they hide in there house it gives everyone a chance to kill the dragon, beetle or whatever, before they can use that stupid petball. And by then there should be enough bees in the house to kill them when they reveal to summon back the pet. This is classic, lol.

Im beginning to think that even if EA cared even a little about UO that they have already screwed it up beyond the point of being able to fix it with anything less than a pre ren shard.

Item insurance-has made pvp infinitely unbalanced,pointless, and skilless. Has actually reduced the pvp population by annoying people that just wanna pvp as oppossed to farming endlessly to try to keep up gear wise. There was already Trammel for people that didnt want to lose their gear yet EA had to take it even further.Lack of enforcing the rules by EA has made UO a haven for cheaters. The number of cheaters grows daily as there seems to be zero penalty for cheating nowadays. UO is but a shell of its former glory. It seems to me EA has taken the power of the players away in the wrong ways and given them unrestrained power in others. The state of UO can be explained by what happens to someones creation when its taken over by a large corporation intent only on making a buck in the short term. EA doesnt create anything great, it simply buys the creation of others and and turns it into a for the masses type piece of crap.

I am well aware that the archer 'thing' had been addressed, but my point was that it wasn't addressed before giving them a blessed quiver to carry their arrows/bolts in.

Quite frankly, from how it seems, it's all a little too late to salvage this once beloved game and restore it to its former glory. I hate that EA forced my beloved foes into playing WoW instead. 2 More accounts closing this month from my end. Consolidating has taken longer than I wanted it to, dangit!

It's a shame that they will never put a pre-ren shard into effect.

The best you can do is go and play on... am I allowed to reference player run shards by name on the forums?

Amen!!

Oh and Lynk, my suits fine thank you, and as for my skills, 120 tame, 120 lore, 120 vet ... pure skill worked long ago. No jewels, no items regarding the taming skills.

The dragon breathe is from the new dragons. I do think to give a tamer such a powerful animal as those dragons or even the beetles perhaps the tamers actual true skill should be high. That in itself would detour alot of tamers since it takes mad patience to work that skill.

Over powered archers .... Madonna, Zolar .... need I say more?

I would totally play a production pre ren shard, that was actually well run and moderated.

I do play factions, I have a bush/parry mage Tank that i use for group fighting, and a weaver/dexer Soultaker that I use when I'm solo.

I can kill Solonar, Zolar, and Antichrist with ease.

100% RPD suit with attunement. I can absorb over 100 pts of dmg with attunement and it all reflects. Usually all it takes is an armor ignore or a bleed and they kill themselves.
