Excelsior

Okay, so as some of you already know, I'm a recently acquitted "newbie". =)

Currently my account is a whole whopping 6 days old, but I've logged well over 4 days of play time..

Now, to get to the point =)

I've basically spent the last 6 days, leveling combat skills, etc to GM status, and have collected organics and made somewhere around 600k off of them. (not bad eh?)

My question for you vets is: Where exactly do I go from here?
I'm currently equipped in platinum plate, with an average of 72% total resist (all resistances at 70)..66 str, 56 dex, 53 int.. and a dismal 87hp...

I've tried to do the new player CS, but frankly, its a large pain trying to figure out when the next respawn is.. But outside of that.. I'm looking for some recommendations as to where to start next. It's not as though I've never played UO, it's more that I realize there's a lot of customs to this shard, and it could be quite confusing trying to find my way around.

Any tips, advice, etc will be greatly appreciated!

Thanks.. =)

Here are some of my suggestions:

- Keep gathering organics, but save them up in your bank/house
- Don't have a house? Now's a good time to get one. Stock up on gold and get a customizable plot, those are fun.
- Get more stats, as you stated, 87 HP is not a lot, aim for that to be maxxed first, then whatever else suits your playstyle
- The new player champ isn't the only one of its kind, there are two more MotA spawns in Felucca
- Get gold, you're always going to need it. There are so many methods, I can't even start a list.
- BoDs for special items
- Go exploring and find new and interesting places and make sure to mark plenty of runes.

Those are just some quick things there, but there's quite a bit to go from here. Hope this helps.

Im just going to add to what Nomadix said.

- Gather organics till it makes you sick, and then do it some more. As he said, just keep them in the bank. One of two things can happen later, the price on orgs goes up (again) or you decide you want a bio pet.
- You said that you have an all 70's resist suit. You can work on making this suit even better, as in customized to your play style. Better yet, work on some extra suits. And try to make a suit that is all 70's even with protection spell on. Mana and hp regen are a MAJOR plus for the suit. I personally dont see stam regen being needed as much since 'Divine Fury' will take care of that for you.
- Remember that druid trees do nothing for you if you have low karma. Many players dont realize this till its too late.
- Make it a point to check those MoA champs as much as you can. the Newb champ spawns every four hours. Gold isnt great but as you know, the powerscrolls are almost a necessity. Make sure you check the champ when he dies too. Sometimes he drop gargoyle tools.
- If you want to get some good gold quick without selling your orgs then get some good pets and go farm blood dungeon. At least till you now longer need to use the pets.
- Get a good weapon to level up. I prefer Hanzo's Bow, but its all up to you and what your looking for.
- #1 thing is make friends! You will need them. There are not always people on that can or will rescue you when your in fel lost lands hoping your corpse doesnt disappear.
- use your cleric spells!! They work off of spirit speak skill.
I do apologize that some of this is very basic UO stuff. But I put it there anyways just in case. And just like Nomadix said, "there's quite a bit to go from here". Even the Excelsior vets still learn new stuff.
