I also believed that many more players were waiting to come back for TC. Quite surprised that so few did. It is also summer so people aren't playing games as much. However, if in the next couple of month there isn't a sizeable surge of returning players then i’m not sure it ever will. If TC...

MAs use mostly dense crepite short bows because they shoot fast and take no stamina, so you can shoot forever. The best short bows require minimum 82 strength. So technically a vheela, with bow clades, can use those bows with 62 strenght. Not sure why the OP was talking about 100 strength bows...

First of all you need good armour as a footie. Steel or better. Potions help too. Lancers hit really hard so, once you have lost your horse and are on foot, your only play is to use terrain (rocks, trees, water, houses, etc) to hide behind while you use a long bow to kill his horse. Long bow is...

Yes, currently the red flag is always hidden. Doesnt matter how many murder counts you have your flag always stays blue. The guards respond to faction standing, not the total murder counts. so when your reputation gets too low with Teindremic (for example) you can no longer enter Tindremic...

Not sure if anyone has made a proper guide on building an arcane archer. Its a wheelchair mage build with full MA skills, ecumenical and either Necro/risen pets or beast mastery/creature control ( depending on which pets you want). Ive even seen one guy with both. Its usually either a bony...

Mounted archer/mage is the most OP build in the game ( also called arcane archer), especially for solo and small scale pvp. Then add pets to it and its right down disgustingly OP. Foot archers are unless unless you are shooting at a dex mage. Its more of a secondary option for melee fighters to...

foot speed is much different than MO1. Even with all the athletic skills maxed the difference between 100 dex and 123 dex is much smaller than it used to be. While it is faster, you will not be able to just burn away from other players. It more of a gradual pulling away. Stats can be increased...

Henrik said it was a hotfix. For whatever reason they didn't give any warning for the server shutdowns. But yea, this stuff is kind of expected for the first week or so after a major patch from SV.

For a dagger mage the best races are either Vheela ( for pure foot speed, high crit chance, agility in combat mode) or humans ( slower but can equip better armour/shield and have more mana regen, and more skill points). The king of the kiting playstyle will always be the Vheelas with their raw...

It can be hard to find the right guild. I would stay far away from those that take resources from their players. Sure contributing to the guild or running farming events for the guild is necessary, but forcing people to give their own stuff is a no go. Also finding a guid thats not too hard core...

First of all TC will ruin everyones experience when the server buckles under returning players load. You can bet your bank that the larger guilds will purposely have as many alt accounts permanently logged on just to keep their enemies stuck in the login queue. Nothing will make people quit the...

Healing your pet in pvp is definitely very useful but as Rhias said you cant rely on it to win a fight. You need to be aggressive and deal damage yourself and use your pet as additional dps. Melee fighter is ideal, but dagger mage (especially if you are human with some armour on) can also be...

Absolutely. First of all you should never be able to have 3 of anything (even zombies). Secondly you should never be able to command a pet while you are mounted. Thirdly any undead pet should instantly kill non-undead ones. You should have to choose between one or the other. Nerfing pets its...

@fartbox While catering to a pve crowd will certainly bring the masses, its goes against everything MO stands for. Henriks main purpose for making this game was to recreate UO as it was before Trammel. Hes said this many times. He hated the pve cop out of UO. This is why it will never happen...

No, there is currently no subscription required. However, this will change possibly as soon as the next big patch that will include TC. No official word yet at to when exactly it will happen.

Something similar was already part of MO1. After 5 murder counts you were red flagged and would get attacked on sight by any guard. Also players could attack you and not go grey. Also upon death, if you had a certain amount of murder count, you would get stat loss (lose a percentage of your...

I will stop you right there. MO 1 was around for 10 years (13 if you count alpha). Most of its life it hovered around 1k to 2k players. It never made money and actually lost money year over year. It didnt die. It never got popular. It was always a super small community of uber fans. MO2 is...

@fartbox You've played for two months and you believe you are the MOST qualified to talk about pvp balance and what the game needs. Lmao. Enough said.

The argument that: in a full loot pvp game there needs to be an “i win button” that allows low skill new players to obliterate highly skilled veterans simply because the game needs more new players…..is frankly absurd. Its like saying chess needs the option to start with 3 queens so that nubes...

Even a steel wearing warrior is at a massive disadvantage when trying to kill pets while the enemy is bowing you or flamestriking you from his horse. Yes you may survive the pets but then you still have to contend with a (usually mounted) tamer. The worst build is the necro/tamer/ma/mm build...
