The Redeemer

taken from Thread :-The Redeemer found in UO.UHall


###########################

Not a bad sword really





############################

Seems like it'd make a good all-purpose doom weapon, although the fact that it'd be slow as heck and the mods are only the 55% damage increase will likely make it a huge turn-off.

Still, it'll be shiny for display, at least.


############################

where did that come from?


############################

You turn in 25 books of truth for it (Origin only until other shards get the patch)

It has higher base damage than any weapon in game. But damnnnn that's slow.

I think it has highest base damage and lowest weapon speed, doesn't it?

Well, it certainly is a "sword like no other" in those regards...


###########################

I think it might be a new sword type. Maybe a claymore or something...... could be one of the new weapon type in KR.

This sword is not the slowest weapon tho. 5s is the same as HXBow but with 2 more max damage. Wait till this sword has hit lighting and ssi mods (if possible in the future) with disarm as one of its special people might just use it as their main pvp weapon. With Heavy xbow already hitting people for 40+ damage with moving shot thru 60 physical resist not counting hit lighting damage. If this sword is made a normal version can only hit for even more


##########################

Two people combined thier books to get that sword... like 8-10 hours to get the books...

Major pain if you ask me... for a weapon that is basically worthless... bushido maybe but still way to slow unless you will just use it to get the last wack in on someone... or use it for disarm and swap weapons...

but the length of time it takes to get it.. not really woth it.. i'd rather spend my time in doom or doing peerless and get way better [censored] than that...

Despite the fact I think its worthless....I'll probably get one just to say I have one....

Is the book is no-drop /no trade quest item?


No. The books can be traded, stolen, insured, dropped etc. They are not blessed.

In fact....

*Leurocian whispers*

Felucca has a higher drop rate for the books. It will be interesting to see some rogues and pvp in action

Have fun

You just HAD to go and say that, didn't you Leurocian?????? *frowns* I had fel wind ALL to myself....and you HAD to go and say that *winks*

But yes, I have to agree..the drop rate is MUCH higher in Fel


Leurocian Ultima Online Designer


You know us Designers. We are full of mischief




#########################

Does luck from equipment affect the drop rate of the books?

#########################

Leurocian Ultima Online Designer

No.

#########################

and also in this thread Who wants to bet the Redeemer is a Paladin sword.. found in UO.UHall


Was looking at the special move book and its in there now.
Disarm/Whirlwind, fun.

###########################

I've seen the threads, but haven't seen this... Where does one go to get the Redeemer quest started?



At the Lycaeum, but only after everyone else gets the publish. Is only on Origin right now.

############################

It is one quest per charactor..so once your charactor has gotten the sword, he may not get another one.



Does doing one of the quests eliminate the chance to get the other items then? Or is it once allowed for each quest?



You can only do one quest at a time, but you can do them in any order you like. One of the quests is repeatable; the other three are not.

Re: The Redeemer

Purely a trammel weapon, but definitely a nice decoration item. Now if you can only wedge it in a rock, there might be some serious role play possibilities.

Re: The Redeemer

Why is it blessed? I thought that was what insurance is for?

Still we loom in the mists as the ages roll away,
And we say of our folk, "they are here!"
That they built us and they died and you'll not be knowing why,
Save we stand on the bare plains of Wiltshire.

Re: The Redeemer

Don't know if I can wedge it in a rock, but I'll try to get it in a skull if I ever get one.

Thanks again Maddux!
