Greetings Everyone, We are aware of the exploit to make 5 slot pets more powerful by releasing and re-taming, a fix was published this morning. The pets that have been affected by this exploit will have their stats reset in the near future. We will not be touching the skills or the AI’s of the pets. UO Team
Friday 21st, 10 pm BST / 5 pm EST Small sea-drakes circled around the crows nest, their small burps of flame keeping the evening’s chill at bay. Crows nest! Ha! In all his years as lookout, Merker had never found a crow up there. Gulls, cormorants, sea-drakes, and the occasional hapless fish, dropped by some passing sea bird, but no crows. Still, over the years, he’d made it comfortable, and the crew depended on his sharp eyes, so it kept him away from the more demanding chores aboard The Ocean’s Claw. Far below, the crew lounged about, enjoying the last […]
Saturday July 8th : 10 pm BST / 5 pm EST The king has spoken! There shall be a race! A race by sea! Seafaring adventurers! Fishermen! Eager swimmers! Riders of the Walrus! Oil your flippers! The race will work as follows: You will be summoned to a starting location, where you will be given a book, containing a riddle. This riddle, when solved, will give you a clue to the first location on your route, and a password. When you arrive at your first location, you will tell the password to the guide who awaits you, and he or […]
Saturday 24th June 2017 10 pm BST / 5 pm EST King Blackthorn’s face was like thunder as he put down the reports from the Commander of the Black Watch and the Royal Detective. The death tolls between the two reports were astronomical. But to find that the beasts had been making use of the dungeons beneath his very castle for one of their bases of operations was a bridge too far. These beasts, and their unseen master would pay. Enough was enough. A knock at the door jolted him away from his fuming. “Enter!” he barked. A small […]
Last month, we dug. Oh, how we dug. We didn’t quite manage to dig all the way to Oceania, but we gave it a good old fashioned Siege try! This month, since your bleary-eyed EM has recovered from the last night-long dig, we’re going to try again! The arrangement will be the same as last month. For those who weren’t able to make it, here’s how it goes: We will meet at the EM Hall. The Royal Archaeologist’s Assistant will select a map at random, and teleport to its location. A gate will then be sent […]
Saturday 10th June 2017 10 pm BST / 5 pm EST Commander Bhaltair frowned at the Royal Detective’s report. This was not good news at all. Still, what was that old saying about “better the daemon you know”? He had fought the ghastly offspring of Mondain and Minax before, or at least, tried to. His leg still hurt when the weather turned ill. Memories of being unceremoniously flung across the chamber, so hard that the brickwork shattered where his armored body hit it, still burned in his mind, as did the memories of the ceremony afterwards, in which many fallen knights […]
Saturday 29th April. 10 pm British Summertime. 5 pm Eastern Time. 7 am Australian Eastern Standard Time. “Commander Bhaltair, these men and women are going to be slaughtered!” thundered King Blackthorn, his fist making the heavy oak meeting table shake. “The Royal detective told me what happened on Fire Island! Apart from one well trained, small band of warriors, it was a massacre! Half the kingdom’s healers are exhausted from the effort of healing and restoring so many!” “What you say is true, my king.” stated the commander of the Black Watch calmly “but you have to admit, they have […]

Animal training is an advancement to the traditional pet skill training through which a pet has, in the past, gained its skills. The training can be undertaken with any tamed creature be it fresh tamed or ‘fully trained’, ie with skills at maximum. The exception being pets requiring 5 follower slots, these are considered to be already at the maximum power and therefore not eligible for Animal Training. Undertaking this training is aided by a daily ‘pet training hour’ beginning when the pet first gains in the training progress and increasing the amount of training progress the pet normally receives […]
