Some stuff that worth put our minds on:

[Rayden]

1. criminal timer:

is 2 minutes really necessary?
is really necessary to be criminal as a ghost?
why a red healer wouldn't mind if you are a assasin, but cares enough to not heal you, if u looted a blue corpse?

2. Getting all your stuff back bv just double clicking your corpse

everyone was beneficiated by that at least once, but I really think is not healthy for pvp.

3. Fairys;
5 mana, miliseconds to cast, for a too powerful thing (remember, I play a weaver my self)

Maybe you should take this up with mythic or ea.

 

[Rayden]

We don't need to follow EA if the modifications they are making are hurting the game. That's why we don't have imbuing or faction artifacts.

The game need to be dynamic and fun to play, if the major part of the shard agreed upon that questions we could change it to make UO better.

Not since they want demise to be osi like.

Not since they want demise to be osi like.

But there is the fine print which reads "better than OSI" like the bows which state the type of wood used to make them on Demise but not OSI

There's a ton of custom shards out there. They all have small player base because they all suck. There is a big difference between showing what type of wood a bow is made out of and making other game changing decisions. The vendor mall is another thing we have that osi doesn't but it has nothing to do with game mechanics. It seems to me the biggest problem with going down that road (custom) is for every issue there will be some people who are happy with the decision and others who are not. It becomes a bit of a crapshoot as to whether you are making the right decision or not. EA was always trying to appease the loudest whiners and with every change, with every nerf, with every 'balance' they lost a lot of long time players in the process.

Red healers used to rez anyone at any time. That was their advantage vs blue healers. No idea why they changed it, but it sure is annoying I agree. This is something that could be changed without breaking the game.

Not really a big issue. Actually livens PvP up a bit.

You aren't the only one annoyed by them. I am quite sure many of us hate SW. Not much we can do about it except adapt tho.

This is really really overpowered and is a joke.. instant cast 5 summons that spam ebolt/mb/flamestrike/poison? This needs to be thought about, it really ruins pvp altogather.. Yeah, they can be dispelled or killed, but look how much mana mass dispel takes compared to them being able to just spam them again as soon as they get dispeled, this really ruins it for me when I see this type of player I generally leave the area or log.

Meanwhile, other summons take AT LEAST two seconds to cast...

IF the formula is:

mana cost * summon = x

for an exemple, the people said use 5 mana...

5*4( 4 pixies if u have mounted ethy) = 20 mana wasted

5*4( 4 pixies if u have mounted ethy) = 20 mana wasted

If you have lvl 3+ arcane focus you cast 4 pixies at the same time. So, 5 mana for 4 pixies.

What he is saying is that each pixie summoned by the spell should cost 5 mana. So, if you summon 4 pixies at once due to high focus, it would cost 20 mana. That's actually a very interesting idea and would balance it out.

yeah, thanks lucifall .. is it !

Maybe they should only have 10 hit points instead of 20
Maybe they should have 20.0 magery instead of over 70.0 (kind of difficult to cast e-bolts etc at 20.0 magery)
Maybe since nature's fury was coded incorrectly chances are high that these fey and possibly the fiends are coded incorrectly

I thought focus gave feys bonus skill not sure about hp or stats.

 

[Bama]

A summoned fey done without a focus level on Demise still has over 70.0 in magery
Nice mama pool on the ones on Demise

 

[Rayden]

Wow!

and how about the mana?

15 vs 125

Agree, I don't think you should be able to cast more than 1 at a time anyways, just so people can go around and be annoying, it's impossible for a mage to get off any spells with 5 of these things on you.
