I have returned to UO after a long absence. I began playing when the game released and quit about 3 years ago. With my new account, I was able to work all my combat skills up to max levels fairly quickly but I just get owned in any dungeon.

I just can’t seem to comprehend how they want us to fight in them. I hack and slash my way in only to be over whelmed by masses of baddies when they respawn 1 minute after I kill them. Does anyone know of any guides covering strategies for hunting? I did read the PvM post on these forums and it helped, but I am just trying to absorb everything I can.

I don’t remember having this problem before but it could be on my server (Chesapeake) when I hit any old world dungeon now, I never see another soul. Where in the old days you would have to fight off 20 other people for one kill.

I want to get back into the game, but the me versus 1000 angry insta-respawning mobs doesn’t seem so fun. Also, I hear some talk about Doom Gauntlet and other new dungeons, if there is any posts or guides anyone knows about them I would greatly appreciate it.
