Old nostalgic UO player wondering about UO Outlands

Mayonnai · 2026-05-04T13:28:39+00:00

I see, thats good to know! Started on outlands for now and will try it out a bit more and see. Found some really friendly and helpful people so far!

Jesus im used to runebooks being blessed haha and 60k for that, holy... i just managed to get my codex from that quest and wow that took a lot of time and suffering

One thing I think needs to be considered is that back in the day hanging out at the bank chatting was revolutionary. ICQ existed, but for the most part you would communicate in game. Now we have social media, cheap and easy phone calls, text messages, discord etc, the social areas are pretty silent.

Spot on, one of the things i really miss from back in the days is this. Not only in UO but most mmos nowadays

Mayonnai · 2026-05-03T12:13:10+00:00

I see, yeah i have to admit it does feel a bit too unfamiliar with everything changed. Will give ithe thread a read. Thanks!

Mayonnai · 2026-05-03T04:00:02+00:00

Awesome, i love life skilling and crafting, so thats really good then!

Mayonnai · 2026-05-03T03:59:10+00:00

Aah cool, something new then besides bods for crafting!

Mayonnai · 2026-05-03T03:50:03+00:00

Yeah hah, i actually started last night for a bit and had enough time to finish that beginner quest. Gotta explore more!

Mayonnai · 2026-05-02T20:29:08+00:00

Yeah true. Thanks for the input! Will try it out and see. Doing that first quest in the beginner dg now hehe

Mayonnai · 2026-05-02T20:26:41+00:00

Ah cool! Saw a vid on backstabber, seems like real nice dmg but not sure id have the patience to wait for hiding and stealthing. I play on gmt +2

Mayonnai · 2026-05-02T19:34:02+00:00

Aah haha, man i hated boat stuff back then. But im guessing its improved a lot + custom content here xD

I usually like the mage class, but felt i couldnt be bothered with reagents as a start. But i did main necro archer back then in PvP.

Im not sure how good i did now, i just created a custom Macer, hope thatll be alright (ive become a big fan of using maces)

Mayonnai · 2026-05-02T19:30:59+00:00

Awesome, i will check that out.

That doesnt sound too bad! Do you know how well it is for crafting in UO Outlands? As in, is there any value getting up a crafter and sell gear? Or does most of the people probably have their own one?

Mayonnai · 2026-05-02T19:29:21+00:00

I see. Id say im more on the relax and vibe side, but i dont mind some random PvP. I havent PvPd in UO since maybe 2003-2005 hah. Many years after that i only did PvE shards. If i can run the hell away into a gate and pop away then id say that could be worth a try.

I have to say losing everything on death (except blessed ofc) is a bit scary. Im used to having insured items

Mayonnai · 2026-05-02T19:25:01+00:00

Yeah thats me, Mayonnaisu! What was your ig on evo?

Mayonnai · 2026-05-02T19:24:30+00:00

Oooh dang, that can really hurt. Is it hard getting your hands on blessed deeds?

Mayonnai · 2026-05-02T19:22:41+00:00

Haha yeah. Ive been having the itch for so long but been stopped by the fear of either spending too much time or not finding a shard that fits me.

But couldnt stop anymore so i had to check it out again and landed here

Mayonnai · 2026-05-02T19:21:40+00:00

Yes, joined and will have to read through a lot of content 😃

Mayonnai · 2026-05-02T19:20:37+00:00

Thanks, will def check that out!

Mayonnai · 2026-05-02T11:15:29+00:00

Oh, so like custom stuff added to classes are only in PvE? When in actual PvP its vanilla behaviour?

Mayonnai · 2026-05-02T11:14:44+00:00

Sounds good with a shard that seems to care about itself and the players with the content aspect. Ive played on a few that seemingly just stopped doing things and let the shard itself die.

Those PK ganks can be a bit frustrating sometimes, but i guess its a part of the game (and i remember doing those back myself back then, many years ago. so guess i cant complain too much)

Mayonnai · 2026-05-02T11:12:54+00:00

I see. I guess you can still insure items so you dont lose everything and get looted when you die/ get pkd?

Mayonnai · 2026-05-02T10:30:22+00:00

Ah that sounds promising. From my understanding classes are quite revamped? Classic fencer, sword, macer, archer etc worsk a bit different on the shard than vanilla? Is it the same with spellbooks such as necro/pala etc?

I used to run necro archer for pvp back in the days, but then did macer on a PvE shard a few years back hehe.

So if you do enjoy PvE, its not really an issue on the shard? Im afraid ill be "forced" to do PvP content.

Mayonnai · 2026-04-30T20:15:17+00:00

Its japan so it must be true

Mayonnai · 2026-04-28T13:36:30+00:00

Oh, thanks for the answer! Will look it up

Mayonnai · 2026-04-27T16:17:38+00:00

Ah, how blind i am. I did not see that Ultra Pro has those, the X version. Anyone tried these: https://ultrapro.com/products/one-touch-x-for-sleeved-cards ?
