Kindlehart Tempest Optimizations

2/18/2026

Greetings,

We want to thank everyone for their patience while we investigated and attempted to resolve performance issues related to the Kindlehart Tempest Encounter primarily affecting Atlantic.  This event has proven to be especially popular and as such we’ve made the following optimizations:

  • Reduced corpse loot for World Bosses that have an alternative loot drop scheme
  • Reduced visual effects on Kindlehart Infused monsters
  • Optimized World Boss AIs

We will continue to monitor performance and make adjustments accordingly.  Please feel free to visit the official UO Discord to share your feedback: https://discord.com/invite/ultimaonline

See you in Britannia,

UO Team
