you know what i'd love to see. maybe for 200 eds or 300 eds a level deed that takes you to level 110 for a weapon now that would be awesome. let me hear your peep's thoughts on it

me likey

Same here but it'd require lots of more exp per level... still, an awesome idea

I see nothing unfun that can come from this

Think I would like to see like 500 eds (maybe even 600 eds) for +25 levels to the weapon level cap. Each weapon can only do this once. As far as experience points go, I would keep the same mathematics as it has now, then times 10. Finally, +10 level deeds do not work beyond 100. When you get that person running around with a 125 level weapon, it shows the amount of work put into it.

I am very happy to start seeing this be the politic of the day...

nothing pleases me more than to see this be the case.. nelapsi its off the topic at hand what is your view on the price of eds curiously enough..

none of the things in the game are misplaced what alot of people fail to acknowledge we play here because as far as uo shards go this one gives us the best options for fun, and some ways I have never heard of before here (500+ hp) except on shards that did it at the expense of the balance everywhere else.. I like and completely support nelapsi's position..

500eds +25 levels +10's beyond 100 don't work.. one time per weap

now lets move onto the related subject of donations, misconceptions due to donating, cost of eds, and whether eds should be player sellable at all.. nah wait lets not.. don't want WWIII and it would require a maturity many lack...

i like that idea 500 eds for a +25 over the level 100 weapon level cap, but you can not use the +10 over level 100. also, the math should be a little bit harder. so instead of taking 2 months to go from 0-125 (no deeds) it would take 6 months to go from 0-125. that would totally prove the extent of the work put into the weapon. any more really good ideas, keep em coming!


oh and another thing. make it so you can't re layer. i must be a weapon (too lazy to start replacing gear )

If eds are a problem then lets switch it to tokens, about 15 mil tokens for the +25 levels deed or if that is still a bit much how about 30 mil gold. When it comes down to it, the shard uses eds for such high end things so I merely stuck with it.

I priced it really high for a reason, this is to be a motivational force for high end players not someone who started last month. This is also a goal for higher end players rather then buying levels, they will now need to go out and level it. I can only imagine the amount of time it will take to level such a beast but a lot of props goes to the people that do.

Lets see...
1st: I agree completely with the cannot relayer and this is why I also stated cannot use +10 level deeds. This way you cannot use it on current gear already relayered.

2nd: I think if you take the current level math that is in place and merely x10 for levels above 100. You get a very high number taking a lot of time and work to level

well i like the idea

this is a great idea exactly what the shard needs more depthy goals.. and ways that it is earned ingame = people doing stuff ingame.. its nice you can speed certain things along with donations, its when that becomes the defacto standard vs. actually playing the game (hint anarchy knows the weapon level length because he has done it sans deeds) highroller is a perfect example of achievement without comprimises or shortcuts..

you might see a donation from folks you wouldn't expect simply because htye have ACTUALLY been there and done that.. items like what is being proposed here increase the replayability of the shard..

I can hear it already later on when this thread gets older... "thats not fair" "that will only benefit older players" "wont someone think of the new players" "everyone deserves a chance to......"

cut it out and get over yourselves everyone has an equal shot of getting everything from the jack sparrows cutlass to the titan's hammer to the relayers ..

this would be no different and I appreciate the player led initiative thinks about actual player achievement that is done in the game vs. in the wallet

donations I have no issue with.. its when donations become a constantly abused shortcut that there is problems.. its when the attitudes of such people turn entitled that we have problems..

this idea is great anything that makes people use the spawns is great playing the game is what its all about..

if you find yourself short on cash
1. you aren't trying
2. you aren't trying

this game may appear to be difficult but as far as uo shards go alot of this place is a cakewalk, which is still proving to be difficult to a hoard of carebear zombies who want everything handed to them..

uo is for those that do
if you want stuff handed to you and expect it to be like xbox with cheat codes..
THATS NOT UO...
life and uo are very similar.. hard work is rewarded..

my favorite part of the +25 level deed as proposed it rewards playing the game... in its purest sense
and that.... is Uo to me.. thats what its all about..

More Level, more weapon points, then a good weapon maybe need less base points. Players don't need to get the best 4*58 or 5*46% looted weapons, only need 4*46% or 3*58, and after 125 level, it will be as perfect as some of the best weapon now.

There will always be those that feel the need for a 5*58, I have no issues with that because this game is so vast that many players can have many different goals based on their desired style of play. This does not take anything away from that type of player because they will still get more with the increase of levels. If done in a fashion or even close to how I provided above this task of actually having a level 125 weapon will be a rather huge undertaking. It will take for even the most dedicated players time to accomplish. Rough guess I think the experience points needed for level 101 is about 200k.

I am fairly sure I have the code for the weapon level stuff, this could be a fun little project.

outstanding and even offering to more or less testbed the code so that the 1 guy (colibri) doesn't get yet another item added to his plate...

what a great inititiative my faith in true uo gamers has been restored somewhat..

to the people that don't fall in this for the greater good lets have fun its a game attitude..

smarten up this is what rocks..

Uhh okay, you must have everything maxed
