Excelsior

Hello Members of Excelsior and Staff

Since several years now, I am part of Excelsior, and I can say that I am passionate (addicted ) about decorating. I have always been fully satisfied ! But however, it could be interesting to have a little freshness and novelty ! And I think many other players will agree with me.


That is why I decided, with the help of Nagash, to do many researches in order to make this post and perhaps rekindled the flame in the heart of our lovely GMs (sometimes flattery can help )


Here is a summary of our research and possibility of improving for our passionate Excelsior members

1. We found a large number of decorative unused we could serve at auction, event, or perhaps even adding a new level of veteran rewards after stage 1 year.
Here are some picture of these objects :

















































2. We also note that different items were available in different facing untapped to Excelsior.

Here are some picture of these objects:





interesting thing, a gun could be animated




3. We would also propose a new untapped aspect of the game could change the perception of the skill of fishing for good numbers of players.

Here are some picture of these objects:
















Indeed, we have 3 or 4 types of fish (ugliest) and we found more than 30 types of fish existing for UO who could be fished in different type of area. Witch could motivate maybe more people to discover and use this skill.

And here all information about it

I hope that this brief overview you can be pleased and maybe will we see it in true on Excelsior !

Excellent idea. Why let perfectly good deco go to waste? lol. I'm particularly fond of the idea of new tiers of veteran rewards. Items would kind of be a status symbol of sorts.

+1 for sure

Wow too much nice deco items unused^^.- Im with Geo and Nagash. I need the world table !

+1111

Epic deco time. This would be awesome... I specifically like the grandfather clocks, world map tapestries, etc. Perhaps being able to get or craft these items may require several steps with high degrees of rarity. For instance, with the grandfather clock, a 120 Fisherman has a chance of fishing up "Rusted, yet salvageable antique clock parts." And a 120 miner character has a chance to mine "Finely graded Sosarian sand" and with glassblowing skill has a chance to craft "ornate glass windows" that could be used to make the clock. Carpenters could finally use "grade A boards" for something other than boats and finaly a 120 tinker has to piece it all together. Then again...I know virtually nothing about programming, so I don't even know if this is feasible or how time intensive it would be for one item.

Hi it would be sooooo cool if we could use these very nice deco item hope we can get a few of those or maybe all of them

Maybe something for those broken carpentry rewards?

I've only been around for a year and change, and plan on "hanging" around for a long time .
I back the idea of including the items 100% however have various ideas about how they should be included, since there are various items and so many ways they can be brought into our UO lives. However within seconds of reading the post i thought:
Time on server --> access to book allowing chance to find cool fish --> materials for construction of wall mount only dropped by hard to kill mobs --> creates market etc... again, theres so many cool ways we can integrate this into the server and would happily discuss its means with other more veteran players.

I don't know how anyone could be against the idea.

Thanks for the research!

I would absolutely love to have Blackthorne's throne at the top of the list!
With as much as I love deco, I would love to see these and more added, however... I have a hard time seeing it happening.
I think quite a few of these items that exist in UO now (especially when getting into the high-seas expansion stuff) didn't exist during the publish/version when this shard was created, therefore causing a major issue with bringing such things to life (similar to spellweaving issue).

I love the idea of useing some of the unused deco would be a great way to drain those rewards i have accumulated over my vast years..... that being said some of the items in this post are from a newer version of UO that we dont use here so some may not be able to be used if any.... But if they can i am ALL IN

Like Rossi i'm all in!!! I like the canon:) thx for all the research!!!

Almost all of those graphics do not currently exist in our version of the game. However, the patch I created in march of last year has nearly all of those in it. So, hopefully Colibri will feel motivated to finally add that! And believe me, if that patch goes live, I will be churning out deco so fast your heads will spin

ahh congrats Nyx

Great post Geo! While we are on the subject, perhaps the staff can come up with a way to exchange the normal veterans rewards for new ones when they come available. I have collected 50 (somehow) and still have 75 still to claim. Maybe start exchanging Chargers for the good new stuff. Like 5 for the map and perhaps 10 for a chair. Just examples. That way, the new most desireable stuff goes to reward players who have invested their time. Use the lesser rewards for the items that may not be as desireable. Just thinking of ways to get that reward gump from popping up. (yes, I know I can turn it off with Razor)

Wow I like the world table and the picture with the dragon and those banners are awesome.

1+ geo fizzle, I thing its a great idea!
