    FAME AND MONSTER TITLE FOR PETS

    Indeed, I think it might be more deserving to have the titles earned over time and related to what your pet primarily kills, rather than bought. But God knows we need goldsinks, and this is a good idea for one.

    Bring Back Bolas

    I am pro-bola, and would like to see them implemented. However, I feel this shard is extremely tamer-orientated and bolas would simply be incompatible here. They would need to be modified to suit. I would happily settle for a heavily nerfed bola - one which has a low chance of success, or...

    Silver vs. Repond

    The same should apply with slayer instruments -- using a silver instrument on anything but undead should REDUCE the chance of success. It should be noted that the server is FLOODED with slayers and with no penalty for improper use? This is madness!

    Silver vs. Repond

    One key feature I'm sure many would remember is that improper use of Slayers had inherent penalties. They don't appear to exist here and I'm wondering if this has maybe been overlooked or is a deliberate feature? Slayers had opposition groups - notably Silver vs Repond. Using a repond...

    New Inscription Ability - Recycle

    Oh I totally disregard the time taken to code! It gets to the point where a suggestion is simply not viable because of the calculated man-hours required - even if it is a perfectly good suggestion. I would hate to think that the sort of suggestion we're throwing around is not viable...

    New Inscription Ability - Recycle

    Can logs/boards be converted to kindling? This should be added to the menu, if not. Kindling could also be the failed result of converting logs into boards! (I believe there should be a carpentry skill-check when performing this action). Perhaps kindling could also be obtained by using a...

    New Inscription Ability - Recycle

    Making blank scrolls craftable is a good example of the sort of thing I hope to see from UO Forever. It is a simple and straightforward suggestion. It makes logical sense, and could allow for a greater responsibility of the playerbase for the availability of blank scrolls. How would they be...

    A different angle to balancing Parrying/Alchemy?

    What is Parry skill if it can't have a chance to fend off all or some of the damage from an explosion pot? Wouldn't expect much chance from a buckler... but one of those heater shields? Would reckon so.

    Pet Stat re-roll gold sink idea

    Purchasing a re-roll (at a ridiculous price) seems like a very practical idea to get rid of some gold. Gold, gold everywhere....

    Ettins Tame Goats

    Nah, not really. Instead, give Ettins a greater passive Detect Hidden skill, making it slightly harder to stealth past or hide near. Two heads are better than one, after all.

    Animal Behaviour: AI Foodchain / Opposition Groups

    In keeping with my intention to suggest little things regularly, I have noted with some surprise that UOF's wildlife is a bit boring.... My suggestion is that some animal behaviour be considered, e.g: Dogs chase cats. Cats chase rats. Wolves chase cows and deer. Birds flee on approach. I...

    Eager Butler Suggestion

    Regarding Butlers and plant-watering: I didn't make this suggestion with any forethought whatsoever. I've only recently worked out that Butlers don't do this. It was presumed by a friend of mine that this was one of the things that a butler does and we all instantly believed him. I do like...

    Eager Butler Suggestion

    OK, OK, I have to suggest this.... BUTLERS WATER YOUR PLANTS. Eh? Eh? What do you think?

    Fame/Karma Recalibration

    "There's no harm" is probably better replaced with "There's nothing to lose". (Don't mind me at all, btw). I'm a bit of a UO Observationalist who has just returned to UO and I'm ready to get all irrelevant on your ass. Fame/Karma is one of those things which don't invoke core mechanics and...

    Fame/Karma Recalibration

    Due to the titles not meaning anything, which is possibly the point, there's no harm in messing around with the sliders. I'd be happy to see both ends of the spectrum more attributable to activity by sticking a couple zeros on the amount required to achieve it.

    Stable Goldsink

    I like this suggestion. It is simple, and could prove to be an effective goldsink - especially if the price is right. For pure goldsink purposes, which are desperately required, I would suggest one further: offer an additional follower slot for a ridiculous sum.

    Fame/Karma Recalibration

    It has been my observation that Lord/Lady status means diddly - and it is quite normal to be Great and Glorious. I would like to suggest that the accumulation of fame and karma be calibrated to take into account how easy it is (as a Tamer especially) to become a Lord/Lady. Reserve the top tier...

    Slaymane

    Hello! I think I spotted you at East Brit Bank earlier, sporting a wizard's hat? I noticed that your open bank macro included "Recsu Recdu" (or vice versa) and was pleasantly surprised. Haven't heard those words in a very long time... Welcome to the shard, Slaymane. I believe you will find...
