Champ Spawns  and Ghost Cam Fixes

Altar will no longer remain stuck when boss despawns or disappears instead of being killed
Players can no longer log out without repercussions in Champ Spawn regions

    * Players that log out in a champ spawn region will get teleported to a shrine
    * If a player logs out in a champ spawn area all the non equipped "cursed" items on them will drop to the ground
    * This will only affect players who log out beyond the 10 minute grace period; accidental disconnections will not be punished

Ghosts without corpses cannot enter Champ Spawn regions or log in to them
Ghosts without corpses will be automatically exorcised periodically

Shadowlord Finale Event Plan

Key Plot Lines:

Distracting Decisions

    * The Shadowlords mislead the people of Britannia to fight monsters and hunt treasure in Tokuno while they comb the world for their sought after Artifact. The monsters have the treasure, of course, because the Shadowlords are providing the distraction.


Strangers Bearing Gifts

    * Grey robed strangers appear at Empath Abbey, the Lycaeum, and Serpent's Hold called "Seers." Unlike the event manager versions, these NPCs foretell the future, and offer players a way to convert the Cloaks of Corruption into the Cloaks of Life, Death, or Power.
    * Cloaks of Command also become available in faction strongholds


Manifestations

    * Manifestations of the Shadowlords appear in Tokuno, searching for the Artifact after exhausting the other facets. They spawn at halfday intervals in three locations. Once dead, they drop Cloaks of Corruption to the top three attackers, and give ToT minor artifacts to all.

Dawn of Hope

    * Dawn returns to the land, vowing to save Britannia
    * Cloaks of Silence will be available from the EMs


Armageddon

    * The location of the Artifact is revealed. The Crimson Dragons are prepared for a great battle with the Platinums for dominion over Britannia, as the Shadowlords make their move. The outcome of this fight (which the players can assist in) will determine if the Chaos aligned factions (Shadowlords, Minax) receive benefits after the event arc, or whether Order does. This battle is the prelude to the finale.
    * The final battle with the Shadowlords. Rewards include three "Shards of the Gem of Immortality" (one per Shadowlord), and major artifacts.


Rewards:
Treasures of Tokuno, Minor Artifacts

Major Doom Artifacts

Cloak of Life

    * HP Bonus: 2
    * HP Regen: 1


Cloak of Death

    * HCI: 1
    * DCI: 1
    * SDI: 1


Cloak of Power

    * Str Bonus: 1
    * Dex Bonus: 1
    * Int Bonus: 1


Cloak of Silence

    * Stealth: +10


Cloak of Command

    * Faction item, no rank requirement
    * Can only be used in Felucca
    * Can be used once a day to summon a faction monster
    * Minax: Ogre Lord
    * CoM: Wisp
    * TB: Silver Serpent
    * SL: Daemon
    * Summoned monster will last for one hour
    * Displays lifetime remaining on item properties
    * Cloak must be worn in order to be used

Summoned monsters act the same as monsters/animals from the "Summon Creatures" command with the following details:

    * Requires one control slot
    * Cannot friend/unfriend or transfer
    * Summoning requires the same base requirements as the "Summon Creatures" spell (mana/skill, chance of success), but doesn't consume reagents
    * The Ogre Lord's summoned version, however, is *much* weaker than its wild counterpart


"Shard of the Gem of Immortality"

    * An exceptionally rare item that responds to the user's karma to play upon the fate in the worlds within

Since Werewolf has been poorly attended the last couple of times we've had it, We'd like to see if there's a better day/time that would work for more people.

For those of you who dont' read stratics:

Krystal will reach her 10k murder count tonight. TNT is having a special event at their Fight Night Arena just outside of Umbra.  It's been requested that if you want to attend, you come naked with nothing in your pack.  If you want to be among the crowd to be murdered that is. 

I expect most of the shard to be there, there will be regular fight night activity after Krystal reaches her 10,000th count.  She is only 5 short right now.  Even if you have expressed your hatred of Krystal's guts in the past, you have to admit, this is quite an achievement.  Many of the EMs and Mesanna will be in attendance.

Time is tonight at 8PM Central (9 Eastern)

 Don't be a twink, come to Werewolf!

Apparently Hoffs is ready to be your breeder, she's sporting this new Orc helm to gain your attention. . .

Just wanted to introduce you to your new Stratics Seige Shard Reporter. . . .ME!

So, if you have items or events that you want covered or want to submit, you can let me know or send an email to: uosiegeperilous@stratics.com

The next Werewolf! event will be held at The Tortured Elf tavern in Gilfane on Friday, 15th May at 8pm Eastern. All are welcome to attend and no game skills or equipment are required. It is an excellent way for shard newcomers to meet members of the Siege community.

Looking to buy some Disco and Provo SoT's so my lazy arse can finally finish some skills. 

PS I've got cash ;-)

PPS I've got other SoT's for trade - will dig through them in the morning

Checked in on the bees today. I lost one hive over the winter, they appeared to have starved despite the fact that they had more stores than the other two hives that survived, guess they just couldn't move the cluster to the food.

Find the queen!

Could probably use some help from some of our GM tinkers. . .

I believe Kelmo is having a do-dad at his pub tonight at 7pm Central time (that's 8 Eastern and 6 Mountain 5 Pacific for you noobs)

Origin was published today, apparently remaining shards tomorrow. Of course, this is announced not on our wonderful UOHerald, but on the UO Japan website where it seems someone has their act together. . .

I decided to train up Bushido, and I have a +14 Brace and a +10 ring, which obviously doesn't get me to the +25 I need to start training.  Anyone have a piece that will put me at or above 25?  So either a 15 brace or a greater than 10 ring?

I am buying boards to train carpentry. . .I'm looking for at least 10k of them.

If you have any amount, please let me know. I'm ready to purchase.

Other than pixel crack, are clothing with protection charges worth anything these days?
