A noob realization I know. Well just in case you don't know you need to click on the + plus symbol on primary skills to change to a - minus or lock symbol to level up another primary skill.

I also have read for Knowledge petrology, mineralogy, malachite lore, and sedimentary rock/saburra lore. Still no icon so I can use fabricula.

I'm guessing to read intermediate ore extraction. Hope someone can help with this.

Back home to Wessex once again.

What does this mean for you? Well if you aren't in the garrison then completely disregard this post because it means nothing.

However if you are in the garrison then expect to be driven like a field horse. There will be sweat and tears.. all of which will be exchanged for gold, gabore, or the blood of every renegade in Gaul'kor.

There will be no saying "but I'm doing 'x'". You didn't enlist in the garrison to have choices.

On a less serious note, I'll be looking forward to hearing you all again on a regular basis. ]]> Commons Otto Osterwind http://duchyofwessex.org/forum/showthread.php?8741-Coming-back.

If you take your grey horse into town and some town drunk yells Guards, your horse will be targeted by the guards just as if it were a common murderer or scallywag.

It seems taming a horse usually results in the horse being grey if it kicks you while being tamed since the patch.
*Update* Dismounting sometimes makes your horse grey as well I just read in multiple places. Looks like there's going to be a major run on stables.

Beware. Me and about 5 other people learned that the hard way in Vadda just moments ago. It was actually quite epic to see multiple horses die at once and the bank area be suddenly covered with a fine coating of blood. But..I digress.

I was just wondering how the game is coming along, have they made any leeway in fixing the basics this last month and abit or are they just adding new stuff and very slowly working on correcting what they already have.

Combat for example, i heard they put a "new system" in with actual blocking but I didn't see its effect when they released that patch when i was still playing, is it still just taking turns hitting each other? Is the server stable yet or is it still a lag fest.

I think it needs way more time but you guys r on the map and all so I might check in once and awhile to see how its progressing for you guys. I would like to support the game but its a little to expensive just to go bug hunting and waste loads of time to play a beta. ]]> Commons Michael Blake http://duchyofwessex.org/forum/showthread.php?8723-MOs-progress New UO Expansion. http://duchyofwessex.org/forum/showthread.php?8722-New-UO-Expansion.&goto=newpost Tue, 31 Aug 2010 05:31:37 GMT Theirs a new expansion coming out for UO which makes me almost want to go back and play it. http://www.uoguide.com/Adventures_on_the_High_Seas ...

Ship combat, pirates, fishing , canon teams to use the the canons on the boats.

Its to bad UO hasnt gotten a serious visual upgrade as well as a more player skill based combat system, or it would be the perfect game for WSX as it is the ultimate sandbox. ]]> Commons Teroh Reza http://duchyofwessex.org/forum/showthread.php?8722-New-UO-Expansion.

There were 2 naked thieves snooping each other in my house. Out of all the houses in our village they had to pick MY HOUSE. Of course I activated my drill sergeant mode and shot both of them in the head and then asked them what they were doing in my house.

One of the thieves, Samnang claimed it was his house and that I entered his property. After a long day I didn't have energy left so I said it was my house and they both logged off without giving me a reason.

Of course I do not like strangers in my house so I went to a hiding spot in a corner and waited for them to log in. I was standing in the corner when Samnang logged back in and turned around to face me. He didn't have time to react before my arrow pierced through his skull spreading blood and brains all over the wall.

His friend then tried to run to the door, he never felt the arrow that penetrated his skull, ending his life. They returned and when he opened the door...

These thieves were driving me insane...particullarly Nobody and Ehrana...we were insulted, robbed and the Wessex name was tarnished. So i went on a killing spree. I killed Ehrana from about 100m while she was taunting us just inside the gate....so i put an arrow through her forehead. Nobody was taunting us from the priests chapel...so i prayed to Soldeus for understanding...and none was given...so Levald and I sent a slurry of arrows through the priests door finally resting in Nobody's heart.
