Going to stratics honestly does nothing, MrTact seems blind to the obvious, although he is a nice guy, and the rest of the devs are clueless fucks. They honestly don't care much for PvP and 90% of the PvP posts there are made by clueless retards, the only two which generally make sense are Versitile (SkullWasp here?) and JCB.
They need a much better way of collecting information, I mean for fucks sakes its not hard. Handpick a group of well balanced sensible PvPers, then they can rely info to the Dev team, things would go much more smootly imo.
look how well it worked when noxin et al helped out
I missed the bit out where he said "deathstrike is working as intended"
intended as what? to help retarded fuckwits to actually get some insurance money, just lol, if anyone halfway competent took up DS then the whole "all kill" crowd would timberlake all over the shard.
actually deathstrike is working exactly as intended, its working exactly how they fixed it
unfortunatly the devs dont know 2 fucks about pvp and they fixed it so it could do 70hp a hit (they fixed the insta 70hp hit as soon as u tracked and made it so u have to track them for 2 screens, which they saw as fixed)
imho deathstrike is just like the 5 fc and all the arti whores back when there were no caps. You obviously adapted back then I'd assume by your IR's and arcane/HoM etc. Maybe its time to adapt while u still can.
short of taking up ninjitsu to win UO (kkthxsirbye etc..) there is no way to adapt, and I'd rather become a dryad fag or a stealth archer before I stoop as low as skib or dir dir. Its no different to val runics in terms of its stupid overpowered nature, they fixed vals lets hope they fix fagstrike too.
working as intended, lol, such a tram introduction,
"I want to be able to peeveepee like those guys",
"ah npnp we will give you the means to do it via fagstrike",
"gee thanks, now I can kill people nearly as easily as I kill monsters, all kill, all kill"
I noticed this trend that as soon as df became more active pvp-wise, more and more lame/honorless tactics were being used. This is driving people away, i know 2 who xsharded to europa yesterday, and i'm going to europa soon also.
I just read the notes for the next publish, they didn't add anything new(potions are from 3 months ago they were delayed) or balance anything. Just bug fixes and some new potions(hci/dci potions maybe). I heard they will look into pvp in the next publishes(last HoC), but who knows how many months is that away. This is the first mmrpg were just 1 dev can rebalance a skill(Fertbert magery last publish, and he was also doing QA on his local server), it's like a player run shard now.
It's in http://update.uo.com/fyi.html on uo.com, new potions being added for alchemy. No word on what these potions do, but there has been discussion on stratics on making the potions made out of necro reagents and add temporary aos bonuses, list should be posted sometime next week so we know exactly what they're going to add.

just so you do realise that europas pvp scene is about 10x more fucked up then df, df is only just starting to suffer major abuse compared to europa which has had its abuse perfected for years :/
and lol @ i bet there shitloads of new gimp tactics with these new pots

Well i know that after wow came out europa changed alot, i'll give it a try now char xfers are as low as 3 mil.
Let's see what these pots are first.. this is being thinked of as a boost to alchemy, but pots are pvp-oriented items so i hope they are designed with pvp in mind.
