What do u want to be trade-able for Phase2 of the spring clean up!!

[THP]

I would like a turn-in for Mondain's Legacy Minor Arties. Something similiar to the Tokuno turn-in.
-----------------------------------

Any turn in for the ML arties wil suit be fine...ive got a chest full of em and to be fair i have probably thrown another full chest of em away over my time....It will also get peeps back into ilshnear if the points per arti makes it worthwhile....

 

[Lorelei]

A week back in UO and I'm still catching up for the last couple of years! How can I find out what is on the turn in list now? I'd hate to think I'm missing out on something!

 

[ColterDC]

Mini Arties

Old charged items

Holiday Items and gift boxes

Old "of exceptional quality" crap

Champ skulls (especially the blue one)

Powerscrolls (especially 105's and 110's)

Bod scripters and Gold Farmers decapitated heads

 

[Sakkarah_]

Bod scripters and Gold Farmers decapitated heads

I'm sorry, but that actually made me giggle.

 

[Bluebottle]

I would also like to be able to turn in all holiday related items.

Absolutely, too much junk especially the stockings, baskets and endless worthless decorational crud. Also all the excess BOD and quest rewards - how many stretched animal skins, 150-200 use shovels, dull copper hammers and bovine protection talismans can you actually use? At least the colored cloth makes ok bandages

How about all the mountains of dragon scales that no longer stack after you pop a few off, I also have a ton of Dev pumpkins and what about all those hundreds of ancient moonstones that no longer work?

 

[timbeOFbaja]

As far as the criteria, I think it should be things that people hold on to because there is perceived potential usefulness or practical usefulness or because they are event items meant to be horded. In other words, things held on to because they could be useful.

So I disagree about the holiday gifts. First of all, those are mementos given to all characters. They're symbolic and sentimental and to take them back is kind of contrary to why they were given in the first place. Second, and mostly, because if they do this imagine the number of holiday items that will be stashed from here on. Every character on every shard receives these things five or six times a year and they will be bought and sold as soon as they're given out and horded. Third, they have no value perceived or otherwise except as rares over years of time. So anybody who holds onto these is a packrat and as soon as they clear these out will quickly fill their tower back up with junk....thereby doing nothing for the overall issue.

The ideas I like so far:

- Charged items
- Marties
- Practice weapons

Possibly powerscrolls, although you really had no reason to loot and hold onto that +5 musicianship scroll as nobody was every going to buy it. So that, again, will only cause more people to pickup and stash away +5 power scrolls. Just like holiday items, these are still around and a turn in will only clear them out temporarily. with the marties and charged items you're getting rid of something that won't be replaced immediately after.

 

[THP]

OH MY GOD DEVS plz plz dont let the new black swords and shields from the vanguard be the next turn items alone!! for a measly 100 points per item ...like the moonglow rift swords and shields....oh god no no no no...

That would be sooo lame....

I thought it was going to be a ''spring clean up!!!'' add at least paragon or doom arties something like that!!! to help clear the server space of crappy items.....IMO.

[fatbobby]

Blackrock, Books of truth, doom arties

 

[Kariny]

Anything related to fishing like nets, small fish, sos's, ropes from krakens, pillows, barrel staves, etc.
Aquarium rewards
Holiday gifts
Used soulstone fragments
Non usable soulstones from cancelled accounts
Vet rewards- especially the statues
Double exceptional items
Personal bless deeds that aren't usable
Newbie tickets - please!


I've got chests full of this junk! Please give me an incentive to downsize! lol

Also, if we don't get the chocolate stuff where we can have cocoa seeds, tag chocolates, and write stuff on them they might as well have turn in for those too!

 

[Azureal]

Oh goodness, theres a lot of great ideas here. Time to collate for sure.

Arties and Stealables

You gotta admit, theres a lot of these out there. They hardly sell (everyone has what they want, the rest is vendor junk) and its maybe time to wind down the drop rates.

Appropriate Types:

Doom
Paragon
Minor Arties
Tokuno

Points based on level/location of item. Maybe rarity level. Since non-stackable, hand-ins of 1.

Holiday Rewards

Everyones got a lot of this stuff. Whether its in a lockdown in a house, filling up alt character bank accounts, or sitting uselessly on vendors, theres far too much of it. Candy, bells, globes, snowflakes etc etc.

Appropriate Types:

All year levels.

Points based on age (possibly). With this kind of item where theres a lot of bulk product that doesnt stack, perhaps the collection NPCs can hand out trade-in bags. Must be handed back in with preset quantities (10's, 15's etc) and points can be tiered to whats being handed in.

Fishing Loot

I can remember loving the heck out of portraits and paintings when I first started fishing them up. Now they go in the trashcan. Ive got too many of them, everyone has too many of them. Same goes for everything "...recovered from a shipwreck". Much like the holiday items, lets bag em up in minimums, and hand them in.

Powerscrolls

Everyone holds out for a +20 anyway, whats the point of having 10 times as many +10s and 15s that no-one will ever use.

Points value for single 15's, possibly minimum of 5 for the 10's.

BODs

Much like powerscrolls, most folks simply farm the NPCs to get higher levelled BODs. Hands up who has 100's and 100's of BODs stored away, that youll never complete. I thought so.

Large minimum quantity turn in, for a medium to low point cost. BODs are readily available with no risk what-so-ever, so whilst I can appreciate turning them in and clearing server clutter, we shouldnt be over-compensated for it.

--------------------------

Great thread folks, hopefully Jeremy is popping his head in for a look.

 

[Demonous]

that would be pretty horrible for me if marties were a turn in, ive sold thousands of them over time...

 

[Azureal]

Hardly. If anything it would be better for business. Now youll sell twice as many simply so folks can get their hands on ticket points.

 

[Demonous]

what i mean is i throw like 40 in a bag and toss em in an auction and get like 50k for the lot, i would have been screwing myself over doing this if they'll be a turn in... lets just hope books of truth that people never turned in will now be turninable !!!

 

[Revenant2]

I could go on and on with items such as arcane gems which no one uses now and plant seeds.

I use arcane gems/clothing intermittantly on 4 chars! I know one other person who does too. I have to go down to Exodus Dungeon now and then and collect em up off of the controllers, and then I have a stash that lasts me a month or so.

Awesome Summary!! Well Jeremy over to you!! Can we please have a proper spring clean up of our beloved Britania!! pretty please!! sticks cherry on top. too!!

 

[Lord Richard]

no, not the holiday items...I threw away all of mine, darnit!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Now that would royally upset me if they allowed that turn in with no prior mention that we *might* be able to get rewards if we held that holiday junk for just a few more years...grrrrrrr

 

[MaryForUo]

i say

NO to these items:
- Minor Arties (they are still usefull and still spawning)

YES to these:

- Holiday Items and gift boxes
- Blackrock (maybe yes, maybe no)
- Books of truth

Jeremy, write this on your list

 

[RedDaTeef]

Yes to all of the above...if you thru them away thats your own fault.

 

[Loqucious]

Muculant and Blight

 

[Kariny]

Add Melisande's Fermented Wine to the list too!

 

[Jirel of Joiry]

I don't care what they decide we should turn in as long as it doesn't end up benefitting the scripters and they fixed the point values! I and the rest of Legends had to fight a scripting scuzz for the rubble we got! Oh well his karma caught up with him! His over priced rubble is sitting on his over priced luna vendors and he can't even give the stuff away! LMAO

 

[Grace of Pacific]

A tailoring/blacksmith fitting deed please! Example: You bring a male (adrogynous) top to a tailor and they can fit it to a female top, or vice versa.

Not overpowering, simply visual and can make it so male chars can use a nice female piece they been holding onto but now can't use. The females can wear the nice tops we were used to prior to all this screwing around with armor. Almost all the leather vendors I see only sell Male/adrogynous tops.

The resists, etc won't change. Just the "fitting of it" Thank you.

ok, misunderstood the title, but ya all get my drift.

 

[Ishmael]

Every non-craftable item in the game should have a point value assigned to it and be eligible for turn in.

Then it should be a competition - Top Ten people (based on points turned in) on a shard for each month get a NICE reward of some sort.

You want to get items out of the game fast, this is the way to do it. Would be fun too.

 

[Jack Dan Mann]

Add Aquarium Rewards to the list (a.k.a Aquarium Decorations).

 

[THP]

Oh yes...there is a god!! Thankyou Jeremy!!

Turn ins for phase 2=
Holiday and Valentine's gifts
SoS and MiBs
Power and stat scrolls (all kinds)
Treasure maps
Artifacts (various kinds - minor, Doom, etc)
Grobu's Fur
Fishing Nets

New rewards to pick=
A special Luck bracelet and ring
Virtue tiles (to see what these look like, visit the Chamber of the Virtues in central Britain.)
A beehive
an archery butte
a firepit
a nest with eggs
a yucca tree, a stand of bamboo, or a potted cactus
a mounted Dragon head, for hanging on the wall
Horse Barding (for decoration only!)

 

[THP]

Just hopes...

Holiday and Valentine's gifts = all holiday items like tree deeds and snowmen etc etc...

Artifacts (various kinds - minor, Doom, etc) = all artifacts including doom stealables AND tokuna stealables...PLUS THE PARGAON artis!!!

 

[galefan2004]

To have somebody stop by in round two, drop a bunch of holiday bells on an NPC, and waltz off with a piece of knight armor... well, that would certainly cheapen the blood, sweat, and ooOOOoOoos of having fought through Magincia and Moonglow.

I don't see anyone turning in bells because bells mostly have some sort of colectability but I see your point. I have no problem turning in all my snowmen for example.

 

[galefan2004]

How about all the mountains of dragon scales that no longer stack after you pop a few off, I also have a ton of Dev pumpkins and what about all those hundreds of ancient moonstones that no longer work?

You can turn in dragon scales to the library animal section which is the only reason I bother to ever farm dragon scales.

 

[galefan2004]

Doom
Paragon
Minor Arties
Tokuno

Doom and Tokuno artifacts are definately not unwanted and not everyone has all they want of them. Unless you mean stealables only in which case the high end ones (lamps for example) still go pretty well.

Everyone holds out for a +20 anyway, whats the point of having 10 times as many +10s and 15s that no-one will ever use.

Points value for single 15's, possibly minimum of 5 for the 10's.

Plenty of people use the 110s and 115s of popular skills. I would have to say more people use 115s then spend the money to get 120s in the most popular skills.

BODs

Much like powerscrolls, most folks simply farm the NPCs to get higher levelled BODs. Hands up who has 100's and 100's of BODs stored away, that youll never complete. I thought so.

I will gladly buy any bod horders supply at 500 per if they think they are worthless on Lake Superior. They are far from worthless when you consider each and every one that you complete is a new chance at a valorite hammer or barbed kit bod.

 

[gunneroforgin]

How about the heads of scripters.

 

[THP]

Heads of scripters will be worth 1,000,000 points..

 

[Infiniti]

I would like it if they added Halloween items as well.
