Newbie Reagents

[Skrypt]

For the most part, newbie items work as expected here with some exceptions.

Skills that give starting regs:
- Alchemy
- Magery
- Magician (Starter Class)

Typically came with several random reagents on many other servers / old OSI. These regs are newbied unless combined with regular reagents. So it was possible to keep a small stash of regs with you after you die as long as you didnt use them or combine their stacks.

On UO Forever, the regs come in a bag of 50 each. These regs sadly don't appear to have the "newbie" property.

Any chance I'm missing something here or an alternative way to acquire newbied regs?

50 of each is a good trade off, just fill a runebook w/recalls

Thanks for the reply. Yes 50 of each is nice.

I was more curious if this was done intentionally.
There are some interesting perks to having a small stash of newbie regs that stay on you after you die. And the fact that they are obviously very slow to "farm" and they dont stack with other regs makes it a pretty niche thing to manage / not OP.

Dunno, ask the admins, I think pretty much everything is done intentionally on this shard, to carefully balance things out. I think there's still newbie bandages, so some things are still newbie, I believe in official UO, last time i logged in for free month years ago, they stopped character spawning any newbie items and the old 'newbie clothes' are considered rare, so it's good that there are still tons of newbie items at character creation.
