Lets get serious though, pvp on this server is a joke. These are all the pvp'ers from OSI that couldn't pvp there because they didn't have super macros to throw exp pots off screen and hit people.[/quote]

Lol someone is mad. You must not be good here, much less have been good on osi.

Wait, what? You're one of those guys that doesn't read posts and types a tired "you mad" and thinks that you're saying something meaningful. I'm looking for information on how to effectively PvP with all the various types of setups and explaining what I'm running into in certain situations and looking for advice on how to get better. If you think that makes me "mad" and somehow bad at PvP from 16 years ago then I'm sorry about your lack of higher brain function.

i mean, that they both do the same thing. anat+tac = anat+eval= gm defensive wrestle
I don't think they do.

Defensive Ability
When [Evaluating Intelligence] combined with Anatomy, these two skills can be used to replace Wrestling or other melee skills for defense. Anatomy and Evaluate Intelligence need to add up to 220 to have the equivalent of 120 melee defensive ability. The result of the following formula is capped at 120, so having 120 in both skills does not give a greater benefit.
Formula: ( Evaluating Intelligence + Anatomy + 20 ) / 2

Anatomy and tactics do nothing together.

Anatomy only gives:

  • Damage Bonus to melee skills
  • Buffs Healing by increasing HP healed, allows poison curing, and ressurrection
  • When combined with Eval Int, provides defensive wrestling
  • When combined with fencing, swords, or macing gives special moves to those types of weapons
Tactics only gives:
  • Damage Bonus to melee skills

Sweet so I can drop wrestling on my mage and add a different skill instead, thanks for the clarification.

@God.RG wasn't quoting you, and I doubt he would take issue with your relevant and constructive questions so far. Just sayin ;)

Oh, my post was trolling? I didn't realize that statements of fact constituted a troll post. I swear a lot of people playing this server are pretty legit and reasonable, but theres about 10 of you know it all pro gamers that have the logical reasoning of a *, drunk, willy wonka.

No. Your misunderstanding the bonus for "defensive wrestling" it doesnt give you a chance to avoid the hit, it gives you a chance to avoid a spell fizzle when hit. You sounds really mad and your posting incorrect information, thus you got trolled for trolling..

Sure. Can you link where you found that information? Everywhere that I'm reading claims its a hit chance thing. Which sounds to me like its a CHANCE to HIT. I dunno. Fuck, maybe they chance to fizzle when they say that? What do you think?

You're right though. I sounds really mad. You're pretty observant. You must be the head of loss prevention here at the chocolate factory. How's business?
 
Hmm looks like your right. I'm wrong. 50% chance to miss at GM. I could have sworn it was chance to fizzle back on OSI, but hey, its been 10 years since I played there. Resume trolling, Violet. Just don't eat the gum, it's not done yet.

Alright. So based on your research would you say this is fair to dexxers? A mage with defensive wrestling can stun you, wear armor to mitigate your damage, and is 50% harder to hit.

I read what people post on these forums all the time. I macroing poisoning. I have a lot of time to kill. Anyone caught speaking out against the way pvp is done here is immediately put on the cross. This IS NOT how pvp was during the good ole days on UO. Look, I don't mind that this is * easy pvp. I get that you're allowed to script here so you're constantly drinking and throwing pots and what ever else. I think it's lame that pk's here have almost no consequences. In the UO I remember they weren't allowed in town, they received a real stat loss when they died, and turning in their head gave you a bounty. Great system. It put just as much risk on the pk's going into dungeons. That shit was fun.

Instead of saying the server is old school UO, just advertise that the server is tailored toward mage pvp and that they just need more people to fill the dungeons for the reds to come by and kill. Honesty is the best policy.

this isn't '97. Also not quite '01 or '02. If you don't like where UO has headed to, go ahead and look for a new game. Crying out "CHEATERS", "SCRIPTERS", "HACKERS" won't get you anywhere. Some people have never stopped this game and as a result have become better over the last 17 years. Is it surprising? I don't think so. Good players will be good players, bad players will cry. End of story.

First off, never said cheaters or hackers. Scripting is alive and well here, but I don't think you don't know that. So crying out scripter is calling out the people who NEED scripts to pvp. Seeing as how that's a program to play the game for you, I call that lazy and cheap.

I would go as far as saying that a macro that drinks pots for you, heals you as soon as you get hit, and throws potions on a timer is playing the game for you. So did YOU play the game for 17 years or did you watch a macro play it for you?
