Re: Back from the dead

I had a similar situation, but I did not plan to be away a few years, so my backpack was still full and my bank box was full. Lost everything in my house though. I just put on what I had and pushed forward. If you have nothing, starting over would be a better idea.

Re: Seriously?

Maybe need a BOD for BOD rewards. I have been doing lots of low level smith and tailor to turn in for better BODs. The Low end smith rewards are useful (and stackable). Like picks/shovels/hammers. The low level tailor rewards are not useful and end up in my recycle bag (dye tubs & looms). It wou...

Welcome Back?

Hi. My name is Croaker. It has been over 2 years since I last logged in. Life gets in the way sometimes. Recently I had the itch for UO. Maybe the simplicity of the graphics. Maybe the memories of playing all those decades ago. I was thinking of a new character, but I log in and there is Croaker, si...

Re: Combat with Axe and lumberjacking skill gain

I dont believe using an axe or pick as a weapon should give gains for lumberjack or mining. Those are different skills. Just my 2 cents.

Re: BOD collecting

I think I remember that one. So it never expanded to the other crafts. Oh well.

BOD collecting

Was there a reward item which allowed you to collect a day's worth of BODs at one time? I recall something like this a year ago, but cannot find any information in wiki. I remember it having limited uses. Not sure if there was one for each craft?

Razor Mining Macro

Anyone have a good mining macro using a portable forge and keys? I found one here from a few years ago, but it does not move the ingots and I cannot figure out why.

Re: Return?

As I mentioned. My keys, portable forge, tool houses, smith BODs were all in my backpack. I think I am wearing my mining clothing (forgot to check that). Money was in the bank. Skills are already bumped with scrolls. So you are right. Not starting over.

Return?

I seem to come and go in UO. Not sure why. Life gets in the way. I logged back in the other day to find my plot gone (of course, it has been a while). Backpack and bank are fine, but lost a lot of crafting stuff (crafting clothing, BOD books, etc) in the chests on the plot. Now deciding to start ove...

Address Book

I am full of questions today. What is the purpose and use of the address book? I don't recall them in the past, and I searched the forums and cannot find a post of what they are and what they do.

Thanks.

Re: Lumberjacking Help

I will have to try the axe. Someone told me I had to use the carp tool, but I cannot choose the wood type until I get higher levels in carp. Thank you :dance
