![]() | 6-year vet rewards Okay, so I just rolled over 6 years in time for Valentine's so I've got lots of fun gifts. Now I just have to figure out what to take. I was pretty careful in years past to get useful gifts so I've got what I need pretty much. I've got 2 choice left though and have no idea what to choose. I went to the UO site that shows the rewards but they are hopelessly out-of-date, as usual. Can anyone point me to a place which shows the rewards, pics and explanations? I'd also like to know folk's opinions on what's "hot". |

![]() | Re: 6-year vet rewards Well, I'd prefer to have more choices of 6-9 rewards instead. There are tons of nice decorating/customizing gifts they could give along with the others. A metal armor dying tub for example, with a limited choice of colors (anything but neon!!!), a special type of shroud, some house improvements only vet can add, etc. I feel kinda sad there is only 1 choice for their long lasting veterans, like we didn't count enough to care...

![]() ![]() ![]() | Re: 6-year vet rewards hmm... I haven't collected my rewards for the last 3 years, because the simply wasn't anything I found worth it. I'm thinking about getting a statue maker - has it charges or infinite uses? Same question to the weaopn engraver - 10 uses initially, but rechargable? |

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | Re: 6-year vet rewards The weapon engraver is rechargeable. The statue maker can be reused repeatedly. How many times I do not know for sure, but I have a guildy that has used it at least 6-7 times and it's still going strong. |

![]() | Re: 6-year vet rewards No charges on the statue maker and a weapon engraving tool charge is worth 100K, as simple as that. And I agree, like I said, not enough choices to fit all tastes! Lame of them.

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | Re: 6-year vet rewards statue maker can be used infinite times, the engraving tool can be recharged (for another 10 uses) by a gm tinker (if you have one) and a blue diamond. Or you can take a blue diamond to an npc tinker and it will recharge it for 100k.
