Bug Fixes:
  • Added a 15 minute timer for a guild to accept an alliance invite. This means guilds will no longer get stuck in "invite pending" mode. (For guilds in this situation now, once the publish goes live, GMs will be able to resolve the issue.)
  • Vanguards and their allies will now teleport if they are attacked while in unreachable locations
  • Players are able to resize instead of demolish houses by saying "I wish to resize my house". NOTE: This DOES count as demolishing a house and WILL condemn existing houses on grandfathered accounts. (Further note: making housing changes (placing, demolishing, etc) on Test Center does not affect houses on production shards.)
  • Greater Dragons and Dread Warhorses will display properly in trade window
  • Statuette engraving tools will be available, sold by NPC tinkers.
  • Sand and Granite will have double resources in Fel now
  • Creatures will no longer teleport into private houses
  • Snake Skin Boots will no longer say Oak
  • Blood Oath can now be removed by eating an Enchanted Apple or using Remove Curse spell
  • Added a Priest of Mondain to Felucca Prism of Light area
  • Zoo Collection points will now decay more slowly
  • Lady Sylvanis will no longer chase people quite so far
  • Repair Service Deeds now work for a Long Sword, orc, bear and tribal masks, right-facing Black Staffs, left-facing Crooks, and left-facing Clubs
  • Player vendors can no longer hold a shield and a two handed weapon
  • Moonglow blacksmith regions have been updated to use repair deeds
  • Player vendors should now recognize the increased bank storage
  • The spelling of Velocity has been corrected when a player is hit by an arrow with Velocity
  • Taming Text will now appear over the head when pet is tamed.
  • You can now milk a cow (use an empty pitcher on it!)
  • Juka Bow has been fixed to show the correct str.
  • The Vanguard assault has become heavier

*cough*rewards suck*cough*

Sorry to be negative, but seriously, 300k points for that ring/bracelet setup? I mean, yeah, I like it, but I don't like it as much as I would like 30 doom artis.

Re: Test Center 1 updated with Publish 53 (5/28/08)

I'm sorry, if you're tryign to put a luck suit together, the highest intensity for jewelry is 100 luck, and it's rare to almost impossible to get a set of 1/3 with 100luck on each piece...that's definitely worth points, considering you can finally have a use for all those crappy 120 ps!

For people striving to have the highest possible luck suit, that Ring/Bracelet combination is going to make it a whole lot easier. Plus people might use luck suits more if they have the critical 2/6 jewelry.

Who the heck is Lady Sylvanis ? Isn't that a WOW boss?

Is this a typo or a real UO mob?

Isn't Lady Sylvanis the Faeire Queen summoned by Lord Oaks to protect himself? You used to be able to lure her away and keep the spawn stuck while you killed raiders...

Silvani, I think they typoed, but yes. It's Oaks' woman. Almost drives it home how much whoever does the publists actually plays or doesn't play

Cursed Arties count as Cursed arties, you can already turn them in. They're worth 5k points I believe.
