UO Evolution Ultima Online free shard has added an extensive amount of New
Samurai Empire content to compliment the original SE:UO expansion.

The UOE team has been working on creating new buildings, monsters and systems to enhance the limited content from the original UO:SE expansion that was released by UO back in 2004. 

The original reviews about the Samurai Empire expansion were not great, so it was always our intent, as developers, to make this new addition have engaging, relevant content that enhanced the Asian theme.

There are no other UO freeshards that have this expansion and this exclusive content is what sets UO Evolution apart from the shards

Belt of Tokuno - Blackbelt System

This unique Black Belt System is exclusive to UO Evolution.  You start by hunting and collecting ancestral cloth, then craft the basic white belt. You then journey to each dojo and defeat the opponents to earn experience that will change the color of your belt from white all the way up to the black belt.

As your belt increases in power, the belt color will change at each stage as follows.

Stage 1 = White
Stage 2 = Yellow
Stage 3 = Orange
Stage 4 = Green
Stage 5 = Blue
Stage 6 = Red
Stage 7 = Purple
Stage 8 = Brown
Stage 9 = Black

It is a very powerful system and is designed to be an end-game item.  The Belt IS intended to to take months of challenging game play to achieve! 

We will continue to add new features...

Enjoy the journey, grasshopper!
