Re: [Tutorial] Windows 11 Orion Install

Why does Orion require Administrator permissions? The original programs need it because the UO helpers intentionally interfere with the UO client. The UO client wasn't written with APIs to do that, so the helpers must bypass multiple security components to do so. As a complete rewrite including APIs...

You planning on running events out of there or similar?
If I ever think of a fun event to do. I might also lend it out to folks putting on an event if someone has an idea and wants to do the work.

I'm sure it works well... but 54, 56, 58.... owwww my eyes!
There's no 56. Where do you see a 56?

There's also some 60s, an 8, a 20 and some other numbers. Symmetry for the sake of style is overrated.

Re: weapon build advice?

Thanks all! Here's where I ended up. I'll convert it to a Yumi later on; right now I need a whirlwind weapon more.

New cave discovered

Far north of Trinsic, deep in the Fens of the Dead, an ominous aura seeps from a dank hole in the ground. What secrets lurk below? Take care you don't fall in.

Re: Winter Event problems - Expatch 12

I've already done the above ^ No you didn't. The instructions above were to download the prepatched client. You tried to download and run expatcher. There are too many circumstances in which expatcher doesn't work right to bother diagnosing yours. Download the prepatched client. After you download ...

Re: weapon build advice?

Magic Arrow does 23 damage. At 58% that would be 13.34 damage. At 56% that would be 12.88 damage. So if I understand right, 6 points in magic arrow are "worth" approximately 1.38 DPS? At what SDI? And 6 points in STR are worth 1.8 DPS? I have 545 points from using level deeds. It wouldn't...

I am selling a waterfront site west of Minoc with two adjacent keeps on grass. No nearby spawn. 6038 total item storage. Asking: 6M gold or 105 ED. Includes both keeps as placed (1,145,500 gold). At your option, I will build goza-mat stairs to the battlements prior to transferring the house. You can...

Re: weapon build advice?

Okay: No HP. HP doesn't increase the weapon's damage. Yumi because: double shot. I have a high tolerance for mismatched numbers. Am I right to think that moving 2 points from magic arrow to lightning will marginally increase the weapon's damage? RPD as a competitor to STR in the build. I'd love to h...

Re: weapon build advice?

What I understand so far: Harm is strong at melee range. Weaker at bow range. Magic Arrow is weak but damage is damage and the point of the weapon attributes is to maximize damage per second. Hit lower defense is a maybe. After primary attributes SDI with any leftover points first, then STR, then HP...

Re: weapon build advice?

Do magic arrow and harm hit as hard as lightning and fireball? I thought they didn't? What about leaving those two at 50% and using the points elsewhere?
