Why O why is it so hard to find the most mundane things

I mean seriously. Spent the last 45 minutes traveling all over the place looking for a necro book to no avail. Than go to Umbra and buy one from npc ....BLANK, thats just great. Than ask in gen chat and get directed to Molly`s in Zento only to be teased at the damn book on the top floor and I can`t get it (no fault of Molly`s). Why? Because for reason unknown to me,my EC will not "click" buy off a vendor,so I have to be within range of "vendor buy"

So I guess I have 2 questions. One....who has a necro book WITH spells ya want to sell to a disgruntled UO/SP retunrnee?

Second is: Why in the hell does my EC client do that. I`ve looked all thru settings and can`t find anything about it. Very frustrating to say the least.

Especially since I just returned today to get back into UO and relax a lil only to be aggravated by having to run all over god`s country for nothing, instead of just being able to play. :thumbdown:

Thanks

do you have Pinco's 'quick loot on all containers' on? If yes, you'll have to toggle it off to buy from vendors. Right click to loot is all very well, but not much help when you need to right click to get the vendor's 'buy' option.

It isn't that hard really to find what you need. Actually players on this shard bend over backwards to help new or returning players. Siege is set up as a veteran shard. So if you need help getting started you just need to ask. The best place to advetise when you are new is probably here. When in game just use gen chat. It will get you a lot more help then crying in the forums.

Well good thing its a veteran shard,since I fit that bill. No stranger to SP or UO OR to ppl who want to take lil pokes at someone instead of actually helping,like you sir. Your awesome.:thumbdown:

So thanks to you Petra for the help... that no clicky thing on vendors really pissed me off. Was like that last time I played and still was the case today after my return. Been away for about 6 months,time to get back into some good ole UO.

P.S. OMW to buy the book,been on the couch with the wife for past few hours.

Sorry I seemed so harsh in my previous post. If you can find me, CWS, GIL or NEW in game they will get you anyhing you need to get going. If you get into NEW you have a temp 'young' status on Seige. For those that play here you are free from attack. At this time however it seems that is not much of a problem. I think we scared them all off.
Have fun bud.

If you go to the Makoto moongate, just north of the wall is Gil Vendors. Gloira sells mage, necro and myst books for a very good price. These are filled books. I do need to restock rune books which I will do today. I also have plants, bod books, scroll binders, blackrock stew and a few other things on her. I also have a vendor there and at Mongbat Ranch that sells all crafting tools. If you need anything in game just yell, sooner or later someone will answer.
