Stat Loss

[Moargoth]

Heyas,

I used to play UO years ago and have been checking the site again recently to maybe pick it up again.

I enjoy pvp in games and did in UO until they made it pretty much impossible with insane skills/stats loss and such.

Was wondering, did anything change in that part of the game? I read up on factions and such, but it the losses werent clear to me. Is it a percentage or fixed number, or was it removed perhaps?

Thanks in advance,

~Moar

Well, you are free to PvP without being in factions. Then you incur no stat or skill loss. However, in factions it is, I believe 33% loss of all skills for 20 minutes upon death to an opposing faction member or faction creature in Fel.

& if you 'accidentally' kill yourself.

So what if somebody else kills me?

The two replies seem to contradict a bit

If any faction member kills you then you go into stat loss. This includes enemy factions, your faction members, your pets, faction creatures, yourself.

Yeah, thats for 20 minutes or so I read.

But say I'm not in a faction and just ambush somebody and kill them. That used to give a murder count and when you hit 5 or so and got killed, you'd get permanent stat/skill loss.

My question is really if that's still around or not...

Unless your a pet, there isn't any perma skill/stat loss for players. When pets die they loose 1 point in every skill, but you can train the pet back up.

The answer is no. They removed the perma stat loss for reds a while ago.
