Wands are for factioners only. Pks cannot use them on blues as far as I understand.

I doubt that.. I would imagine that they can use a heal wand no matter who they're fighting. Wands are super gay.. but them being limited to factioner is really stupid. Especially because I highly doubt that a red factioner can't use wands to heal or maybe even attack. Either way script drops with wands are stupid. Notice why no one played UOWars for more than a few weeks. I'm sure bolas will be next because anything eqms asks for usually comes in.
@Shane thanks man.

Pvpers wanted this, no pvper is going to quit because of wands. You would know if you at least tried to talk with pvpers (god forbid you actually try to play with them)
No worries and WTB wands

LOL. I don't even want wands, but I like them now. Nobody played that other server because it was terrible, and was a cash grab by certain players.
Haven't you raged quit this shard 800 times? Nobody cares what you think about anything.

The problem its the same.. Factioned dont like too to fight against zerger with wands.
But like all the decision we will see in game the situation, hope staff is right and wands add kore fun for all.

lol Jesus Christ you're dumb
Have you ever even played on a server with wands or are you just crying like a beaten puppy?
Translation:
hay guys I'm just going to imagine a bunch of shit that I think would be bad and then rage out about it without knowing anything because I'm a huge ragey kind person who loves to cry about anything I can as often and as annoyingly as possible. Just ignore my dumb gay shit posts.

I bet wands will be fairly rare and won't be the scourge some fear.

Like every decision we will see.
I have only one fear: bad decision about pvp in an ultima online server in 2016 its a very high risk, VERY VERY HIGH RISK.
Like you see I have writeed only my opinion, im not here to say that I know the truth and everyone else is stupid, ill repeat: maybe i lm wrong.
But at this moment I see only eqms people happy for wands and pvmers because they have one more item to farm and sell.
This is a very risk feature and see people (eqms) without any doubt that is for sure a good feature (lollo for example say all pvpers want it... No comment..) its a danger ringbell for me.
Hope you are all right guys, trust me, i really hope you are all right.

keep in mind gheal wands will help a lot to survive vs EQMS
but I agree, we will see. They can always rework if need be. Worth a shot even though I was never a wand guy, personally.

Yeah but for example in faction pvp how many time you fight 1 Vs 10? Never or very rarely so the gheal change nothing.
But maybe change the situation if you fight 5 Vs 15 and that 15 char not only have 15 corp por precasted but they Also have a wand ready. So in this example wand dont help the 5 but the 15 that can istant kill all 5 enemy instead of 3 without wands.
Obvoiusly its only a test, staff have nerfed pet speed becouse 3 user used pet in pvp Im pretty sure they will remove wands if, after a month, will be clear that help zerger instead the poor 5 guys that try to have fun fighting eqms even with half or 1/3 of the eq.ms users.
Until situation will be more clear we have only one thing to do: test it in game

Why are people saying that EQMS pushed for wands?
For the record -- I think wands are stupid and do 2 things:
1. increase the skill gap even further in PVP
2. make it so it will be impossible to kill someone with bandages and a gheal wand
That being said, I will use wands and came from a server with wands. What UO PVP really needs is a way to stop the endless running that happens in PVP.

Like people have mentioned, we are trying this out. Obviously if it doesn't work, we can write a few lines of code and remove all wands.
Let's not bash it until we have actually tried it. Personally I don't like wands but if it works then great.

Because of the reply of lollo, seems more happy now instead the days he looses his virginity.
Btw I remember you ask ing for wands and bolas, but after your last post seems i remember wrong.
So... who wants wands? 100% only staff idea?

Things I think that would improve PVP:
1. A way to stop the endless running -- whether it be bolas(that slow) or mount fatigue, the fact you can run from britain to yew and back to britain is ********. There needs to be a forced engage so that two groups have a reason to not simply run from PVP as the best tactic.
2. AoE spells fixed -- people talk about wanting to fight the "zerg" with a smaller group. There is no better way than to use AoE spells(theyre designed to fight against large groups) but in their current form(broken) these spells are useless.
3. Incentives for PVP -- there is no incentive for PVP now except that you enjoy PVP and are good at it. If you could make gold, pixels, wearables, something tangible from participating/succeeding in PVP then it would become more attractive to those who currently do not do it.

Why faction only for wands?

I think the intention behind this was more so for a trial period. Let's see how it works before we make any major change.

1. I would LOVE to agree with, the problem is you play with 8+ people therefor your argument is invalid. You're saying you want a way to force two groups to engage. Love that idea, HOWEVER you would have to be a complete moron to stay on screen with 8 people holding ebolts. Your shitty play style is the reason we don't have bolas.
What you said about wands i 100% agree with. They absolutely widen the skill gap and that is a bad thing. It was already VERY clear who the top tier PVPers were. Introducing more i.e. wands, firehorns, etc just makes that learner curve worse. You will see people get destroyed even worse by the top tier pvpers and eventually stop pvping. I think the only wands that should have been introduced should have been heal wands. It benefits the smaller or less experienced groups without overpowering the already larger or more experienced groups.
