I'm not really sure what to think of all this. So I hear barbed runic kits are totally going down the drain, says a friend from the test center. Who knows.. If anybody can confirm this is true, can ya tell me so I can go buy out Luna again? But then again, I don't really understand the proficiencies, I tried again last night but pretty much all I could understand was, it looks like it's similar to control slots.. So it IS possible to have 100 LRC with LMC suit still? What about dexers, can I still have max hit chance increase, all my stam/mana increase and mana regeneration? Will it be the same for PVM vs. PVP? I mean, my archers for doom, so it's not like I'm going to the gate raking in the insurance money.

Flutter - if I quit, I'll donate, I have a few goodies pulled up my sleeves. (But unless my characters are permanently deleted, I highly doubt I'm quitting anytime soon. I'm too excited about all the new IDOC's!)

In a nutshell....Amen


And I have to tell ya I love CatHat and her style. Straight and to the point.
I remember getting scolded by Cynthe cause I played "baseball" with an angry poster on the old MYUO boards, "1-2-3 strikes and yer outta here".

I like CatHat's attitude as well.. Draconi and Grimm have great senses of humor as well.. wish they'd post more often personally. And *thumbs up* to Wilki for getting all "Tough Love" on a few of the persistant whiners these past couple months.

My latest trol.. errrr.. productive response in U.Hall...

I wish we could have a "Dev Free-For-All Day" on the forums... *fades off into a day dreams*

Scene: The tank artilleray lot on Fort Arnold

Wilki: You're going to download proficiencies
U.Hall Whiner: Yah?
Wilki: You're going to login and enjoy it
U.Hall Whiner: Yah?
Wilki: You know why??
U.Hall Whiner: Why?
Wilki: Cause you got me into this!! You son of b*!?@!! I'm gonna kill you!! *wrestles U.Hall Whiner to the ground* Where's the great pay? Where's the Winnabego??
U.Hall Whiner: You needed this.
Wilki: Arrrghhh... *Throttles U.Hall Whiner*
Enter Joshua Rowen & Teresk
Joshua: Heh.. What's going on here?
Wilki: Nothing.. we were just on our way to the laundry
U.Hall Whiner: Yah.. we're just really good friends..
Joshua Rowen: Hehe.. get in the jeep both of you.

Well tell your friend he needs to get a brain. Proficiencies are not/have not been on Test Center, so its anyone's guess on if it will affect. But from reading the system concept, NO it will not. What most people don't realize is that having a kick ass item will still be worth the time to get. Making a whole suit of kick ass items with every single property in the game will not be.

We do need to wait to see how it is on Test, I am 100% sure its not as bad as everyone is dreading.

I'm afraid I am here until they close the doors.:embarasse

Changes come and changes go away again. UO is still the only game in which I can fashion a world to live in.

Everyone who gets on test center always complains about the barbed runic stuff... but then, go take a look at some of the uber crafted stuff everyone is wearing...

Well unfortunately I'm one of those people who spends a lot of money getting barbed runic kits. Filling bods, and buying off players. You don't always get those "uber armor pieces everybody's wearing." Trust me I've burned well over 50, I got one item worth 5+ mill, and they aren't even that great, IMO. So when I hear something like they're nerfing it, yeah I'll freak out. :/ Sure I've gotten "decent" pieces, but you don't always get what you want! I try everytime. I'm buying 9 more kits today, and that will be the end of my expensive addiction as of late.

What a poopybutt, CatHat has no fault in this, talking to Cat like the player's the big man. Too bad he's paying to what he thinks "isnt a real company"

"Will You Leave UO Because of the Proficiency System?"

Nope, and I don't want your stuff unless they allocate me more lockdowns!
