There should be a relayer monster that eats anyone wearing a relayer while randomly passing by.
i love this idea how about it consumes all re-layers you have and make the dungeon impossible where you need re-layers. also, make it anti-pet area and all the rewards are account bound. :)

this is why i love this shard all theses good ideas.

And when this area is created.. I'll go in naked and still conquer it. All whines aside after that.

Seriously, Agony, that's enough trolling. I guarantee you that you cannot go into the new Umbris and complete all quests without dying. Unless you're lying about relayers. Instead of ignorance let's actually try to have a productive conversation here.

The point here is I have 560hp unbuffed, am completely relayered and, when I want, can hit 742hp as seen in the post Dramoor made titled "This....". Why in the world would I want to hunt liches and other stuff that I one shot. There is no dungeon I cannot go into and conquer within minutes that is from the original UO. I got my relayers being a poor guy also. I worked in game to get what I have. With all that being said why should I not have a place to go with all that I have earned. The relayer and levelable weapon systems in the game are here, and +Nyx and +V are doing their best to adjust certain areas to that system so that we can enjoy playing, hunting, instead of bank sitting.

That being said I know people such as Nelapsi gladly hunt balrons and lurgs all day and can afford anything in game. Also know that there are people who enjoy donating to get all of their stuff, and we appreciate their continued support of this shard. This thread is a discussion concerning the the revamping of the Umbris Camp. Not some contest to see who can say the dumbest stuff in a thread. The current revamping of the dungeon is great for a quest area and I'm sure they will make very adequate decisions concerning any rewards given for aforementioned quests. I believe most of the disdain for this and Wrong are because a few of us with many relayers would love to have a place to farm, even if it's tough, that will atleast get us the same gold/ointments that we can going to Prism and get. I, personally atleast, am not asking for a farming place that will keep me so much more wealthy than the new people. What I would love to see is a place that is simply too hard or inaccessible to certain people as a reward for either the hard work in game or donations made. That would allow somewhat adequate farming for resources. Perhaps even a dungeon that would only allow "X" amount of people in at any given time with a nice farming aspect to it.

I like the longer timer you currently have on it now (actually a longer one might not hurt -- at least for the OFFICERS quest). Due to the number in circulation, what was once a special shield (Ravnos Shield) is now not very special at all. Although the Umbris Camp has been revamped, the time for an advanced player to complete the quests is about the same.

Maybe this was the intention though. It is harder now for newer players to complete the Umbris quests (I agree with this decision). However, I don't think it's any harder (just different tactics employed) for the advanced player.

Anyway, I absolutely love the quests the way they are; and I feel confident that any changes you decide to make will be good ones. I just wanted to give a little feedback from your #1 questline fan. NO BROWN-NOSING INTENDED -- JUST SPEAKING TRUTH!
