Thanks muchly

the statue in shame used to go to the mage tower on level 5, no password as such, you read the writing on the statue.

There's also the pirate cave which was part of the fiction leading up to SE (I think) The cave is on every shard, but the entrance and password varies. On Europa stand beneath the arch of the ruins on Dragon Isle and say 'Rhumbaba'

North of the Stables in Skara there is a blue moongate that takes you to a guardpost near Yew. (41°44´S, 51°45´W)

You don't need a password to get to the cave under Bucs Den. You just need to amble aimlessly round the forest approx North/North West of the bank, lumberjacking. You'll fall down into it, I promise - I certainly do most times I go logging there!

Seasseragh - Aye, that gate is great, I also love the one way Nujelm Moongate!

Cailleach (and anyone else!) - I have managed to find that entrance in the past, but was not able to recently... granted I did not try as hard to find it as before, but I wondered if the entrance from the woods(jungle?) has been messed up by the, erm, 'land re-furbishment' brought about by the introduciton of KR? Have you (or anyone?) managed to get in that way since?
 

Ferrut

Oh! And something else I found in my searches the other day that might interest you...

You know the mini-dungeon type thing where Jordan Jurrel turned into a statue thing? You used to be able to reach it easily from the Old Haven land mass?

Well, I was just checking out the waters south of New Haven to see if anything interesting got left behind, and lo and behold there is the broken bridge thing and the crystal to get into it! Sat in the middle of the sea! Unfortunately you can't mark runes anywhere on it that work. :(

Also!! A bit further to the south there is some left over pillory bits! These you can mark and recall to... But, it looks like some wilderness spawn has been left switched on in that area, and there's nearly always some wildlife perched on top of the bits thus blocking the recall! Doh! hehe.

1) The lowest level of dungeon shame has 6 islands. You can teleport easily to 4 of these. However the South Eastern and North western island are beyond teleport reach. I have seen on a couple of sites that you used to be able to reach these by either boat or a teleporter somewhere. You can't use boats in there anymore, so... does anyone have runes to these, or know how to get there by other means?!
Try shadow jump.
 

Ferrut

Trevelyan -
Thats excellent! Many thanks! :D

It takes you to level 5 Shame, where I happened to notice (silly me missed it before) you can actually get onto the ledge of the North Eastern island by teleporting from the shore nearby.

This does still leave the problem of the entering the walled area on the island though...

Oh and the South Western isle still seems way to far away to reach via tele or shadow jump :)

Sir Kenga - Shadow Jump appears to have the same range as Teleport? Or am I missing some other use for it?

tjalle -
I've never been down there!!! Thanks!

One that was planted a while back during the events where Jordan and the others were taking the dreamy girl Glade around the world, they placed her in a mystic place that's locked from the rest of the world.

The portal still works, using the word sanvoran

It's accessed from a little island in the middle of Vesper - it's the one that's directly south of the 'Busy Bees' beehive island. Just hop on a boat, and you'll see the sparkly, which is where you can say the magic word.

No one ever remembers that one ;)

Woohoo!

I'm another one who thought that the "falling down the hole" place had vanished.

A bit more wandering is called-for.

Hole in level 3 of Fandancer Dojo, just walking on it takes you to area we killed the enslaved demon.

Warning you cannot recall or port out until you are in the corirdor near the moongate room. Access to moongate is only possible as a ghost if I remember right. A few fights before you get that far, multiple headless np, but also hords of hard minions too. Cannot remember if theres more after the hord minions, happy travels.

Finally got round to having a look at the puzzle type thing at the bottom of the 'wisp dungeon!

What a pain! hehe! I assume maybe your supposed to spell something...?

Anyway, one other thing I was going to ask :


I think I read something somewhere about a cannon or something, in Ilshenar, that upon a certain command, would fire ye onto some nice beach place? With lots of birds? (Of the feathered variety!)


Flame - yes that spot is nice! I did consider hunting for bones there for a while, but they respawn a tad slow unfortunately! I never did make it to that moongate though... heh

Muldran - I think that's the one I mentioned above that takes you to the plateau near Kos Heb? I wonder also if that is the same one I have heard mention of 'near the beekeepers in Vesper'.


Still stuck getting into/onto the west isle and the north-east isle's building on Shame 5.... maybe one day! hehe

not sure if this will help did it some time ago



when I have time to go locate the fur rug, (in a hut) I will post the co-ordinates it leads into a 2 level cave where we discovered Lorgash the rat with his hordes of nasty rats and the book of the Shattering. The hordes of rats were still there last I looked and can be very nasty if your not prepared.

Thanks Flame! That's great!!

The Fur-rug-hut Ratty Dungeon thing sounds even better!!!

I have vague recollections of seeing something similar on my travels recently, but I may be imagining it!

Definately remember some bizarre brightly coloured rugs, but maybe not fur ones!

OH, and the cannon shooting you to a beach in Ilshenar - 'did a quick search and it looks like it's Baja specific. :(
 

Flame (DrR)

ok rat cave is south of Destard enterence at the bottom of the peninsular in the swamp. Double click the fur rug between the beds in the small hut of 3 in a row and be ready to fight.




now trying to find the password to get into the dangerouse part of brit sewers, I remember you say the password right next to the sign in NW part of sewers, will post it once I have time to find it. Part of it can no longer be accessed due to the bridge collapsing during the event but I have a rune to other side if anyone wants to visit it, come to thing of it not sure if it still works *adds to list of things to do*.
 

Ferrut

Journeyman

Wow! Many thanks Flame, I will have to try that out tomorrow! *Grins*

Oh, and I think I know the sewer one now you mention it! It seems I also have a rune to the beach area down there, and it does still work!

Found the password ("Charvory") here also :

http://www.uoguide.com/Britain_Sewers


As an aside, I also appear to have made a note of the word :
"Infama"

But I have no idea why.... :(

It appears to be one of the Virtue opposing Words of Power, specifically for Shame. (As shown here : http://www.uoguide.com/Virtues )

But I have no idea why I made a note of it!!

oh yes thats the password, I checked my beach rune in the sewers and mine also still works as dose my rune to the second level where the collapsed moongate is, did not have time to stop to see if it was still there as the now very starving quagmire beasts (or however you spell it) thought I would make an interesting lunch.

"Infama" rings a bell with both mord and I, we at first thought it was how we discovered how to defeat the flames in terathan keep but after some research discovered we were wrong. Will keep trying.


Almost forgot another very dangerouse area is in Terathan keep where the demon is. Double click the torch on the wall to get to an area Ricardo was being held by the ophadians, (had a talking scarcrow there too).

The password that you say next to one of the beehives as Vesper beekeepers is Golan which takes you to an area in one of the surrounding forests in Vesper.

I've never run across it used in an 'official' UO event, but I've missed so many of those that doesn't prove anything at all :( ... but it did appear as a 'Word of Power' in Ultima V, and I believe CORE used it in one of their RP events as a 'trigger', but I've only heard second and third hand reports of that - any CORE folks about who might remember where it was? Since in the Ultima V use it related to Shame dungeon, maybe there in UO as well?

The areas are not password controlled, but I guess everybody knows the Malas locations of the hidden rune-bags which take you to otherwise inaccessible locations?

If I remember correctly, there are eight?

Hi Fluffi

I'm sure I read recently that they had 'fixed' the final rune?

The one that gives co-ordinates somewhere in the dead foresty region but doesnt actually let you teleport there?!

Have yet to try it out to see where it goes now....

The cannon "shoots" you to Lenmir Anfinmotas, the otherwise unreachable beach area in the east of Ilshenar. It´s located in Montor.

BUT sadly it´s only on Atlantic (EM/Seer event) and I have no char there that would stand the slightest chance to reach it alive.
And since you can´t mark runes in Ilsh there´s no way to mark a rune there and bring it back to EU *le sigh*

I can show you the beach on Siege, the way to get there isn't anything like as dangerous, even taking into account that it's Siege we're talking about. The way back needs you to run a bit though. I've done it on my crafter more than once, it's a lot more 'doable' than Montor on Atlantic. I know of no way to access it on Europa :(

(Sorry Petra I had to try it anyway, haha!)

Plus...!

I tried out pouch number 9 :

They have fixed it, you can now get into the snowy area in the mountains just to the North-East of Luna using the rune.

(I think you could get into there before from that cave leftover from the old Necromancer starting quest perhaps?)

Been away from the game for 2.5 years and still trying to remembers tons of stuff :)

Anyone have a clue why I've got a rune for an Ancient Liche in trammel? UOAM co-ords 141` 51`S 17` 51`E (the mountain directly north of where the passage to Delucia is).

Inside the mountain is a room with 3 statues and a couple of gravestones saying "To lift the *word scratched out* from its place of rest, give up a worthy offering of six" and "To seek out the *word scratched out* wait for the day the lanterns drop with blood".

Can't quite remember what its all about. Was it the location of a one of quest thing for a time?
