Hey everyone. First off thank you to everyone who have been super nice since I came to the shard. And the staff who have helped me with questions. If anyone doesn't mind taking a second I had a couple more. It's been years since i've played and the shard I came from never had updates.

Fishing

-Are there benefits to fishing in Felucca instead of Trammel? I've fished up MiB's and the low level maps. Will the only difference be fishing up Felucca maps? Or are there chances at arties via mib?

-I noticed a "High Seas?" expansion. New boats, new monsters, new fish etc. Do we have anything like that here? Mainly looking at the bigger boats, and the big monster that seem to pop with a special compass?

Misc

-Do we have BoD books? The shard I came from had a big white book to put BoD's, Treasure maps, PS etc. (all seperate books) in to keep them organized.

-Likewise do we have material chests to hold wood, stone, regs etc.

-I've done a few maps in Trammel but not Felucca yet. Will I only get arti's in Felucca?

-Thieves guild. I want to join to steal arti's in Doom. Will there be any detriment to my character for joining?

-No 3D support correct? I've never tried UO in the new UI.


I think that is it for now. I appreciate any help! Thank you all.

Some of the deco was made available through donations or from ed's, for the boats, a few big boats can be found in the world but for now have no purpose that i know of!

Yes, the ultimate bod book, reagent, stone, ingot, tailor and many more keys can be found on the red stone in Trinsic.

I have completed maps from both facets and got arties from each ones, also, we have themed maps here, greater loot but greater mobs to fight!

No need to join a thieves guild to steal arties in Doom, like the Nike logo used to say; JUST DO IT!

I believe you can play 3D but you wont see any of the custom content of the shard so better off playing 2D.
 
Enjoy and have fun!

Thank you for the response Thorgal.

One thing I forgot to ask. I noticed there is a tradeskill associated with Taming? Is there a site anywhere to show how to start this and what I can make? And are the rewards for doing BoD good?

Hi Raki. Taming can be a very rewarding and enjoyable profession. Best place to start is read the wiki and recent shard updates pertaining to animal breeding and bio pets. There is a ton of information to be learned before jumping in. If you have the patients to do BOD's you can receive a valuable +1 Socket Deed or +5 Socket Deed as a reward for certain BOD's among various other lesser rewards.

After reading the links below and you still have specific questions the forums, [c in game, and teamspeak will be your best resources.

Here are some useful links.

Thank you for the reply Meta. just a couple questions that I could not find in the posts.

Besides Bio Engineering are there other items that can be made via taming/tinkering? I've seen things like dyes, leashes etc. is that from a taming tradeskill?

Where is the breeding NPC? I attempt to breed my Cu but it said I had to be next to the breeding NPC.

The Animal Trainers will sell you a taming brush with which you can make potions, dyes and leashes as well as hitching posts for your animals.
The Breeding NPC is just SW of Brit Bank Trammel
