As I was playing UO today, I was thinking, wouldn't it be cool if there was just one base "spellbook", and then as you added spells to it from different groups it got more decoration. I.E.: Start out with a base book, like the current spellbook w/o a pentagram. If you got mage spells, it would add part of a symbol, or decoration to it. If you got necro, another decoration/part of symbol; chiv, same thing; spell weaving, etc, etc, etc. That way, you could carry one book, and it would kind of have a "collectable" (don't know the word I want to use) feel to it.

Fear me as my spellbook increases in depth and power!!!!

edit: or just have a feature like that for different items, like armor, weaps, whatever, that also/or added properties. I.E.: I have a weapon/armor, I kill so many points worth of crap, said item becomes blessed (you would have to kill like a years worth of crap or something for this). Say I kill said number of dragons, I have the option of adding a dragon scale look/properties to some armor, or a dragon fang look/damage properties to some weapon.

You would kind of have to earn your pixel crack moreso, and yet it would be more customizeable at the same time. I hope I am being clear.

would be kinda cool

That would be neat. Wonder if it would be feasible tho?

I'd be all for it.....

if it could break and no longer exist

Not that I wouldn't want that type in game, it's just I wouldn't want it to be a one and done type deal we have now. I really do like the idea of items breaking and not being able to stay forever. Gives it a more "real" feel plus it actually makes you have to earn what you keep.

yeah, I'm not saying necessarily blessed, just giving as an example, moreso just the properties idea, instead of just having such random crap pop out of monsters. Like a tribal mask out of a Haven zombie. I don't remember too many savage NPCs running around Haven, but then again, I've been gone a while.

would be cool but might confuse some people
