My own land | A journey through an empty shard
Hi,
so the other day, while getting another million ready on this shard, slaying away at Miasma, I got bored.
So I gave runUO a try and now run my own private shard, with the exiting number of exactly one player.
I fiddled around a bit with some settings and now have it up and running.
Of course, as an admin you can twist and tweak as you like ("this shard is corrupted y'all wake up lol"), making the boredom ever greater. But I thought, well, let's see how it is, living on one shard, hacking my char through to full maturity, without any economy, no cheats and no raids
I'll try to report about it here every now and then.
Don't expect anything exciting though. It's all been there very long, more apt people have been building things like that, and I'm just wasting time.
Cheers

Re: My own land | A journey through an empty shard
This is my char:
stage 1 was training in old haven, getting some basic fighting experience, and hopefully collecting some items to get physical resistance.
stage 2 is now down in Despise first level. Man, this is really exciting! I had to run back and forth to stay alive, collecting every single bit of armor and weapons off the corpses. You can see that the things I find will be the only ones ever to come by at this stage.
So I am super excited that I found a double axe with HML 30. Can't wait to use it
this is like stage 2 of my journey, and it feels like back in 1998!

Try selling that double axe at luna bank, being the most powerful one on the server it must be worth a fortune!

Re: My own land | A journey through an empty shard
stage 3 of the journey - going Sampire
Things are building up real slow... eventually I ruled Despise 2nd lvl when Ettins and Earth Eles were no lethal threat anymore. This happened only after my crafter was able to make an exceptional luck suit (240 luck and 61 phys resist! this is such an achievement!), this again earning me better loot.
So I collected slayers until I found an ele slayer, which allowed to harvest wind eles, farming for pain spike scrolls, this then allowing me to train necro on the new haven quest. I read up on where to find the right scrolls, and vamp embrace are impossible to aquire alone. hence, I need that full necro book!
To go from 40 necro to the full 50, I also needed a 100 LRC suit. Getting this was incredibly slow: luck too low, no real fighting skill, no economy... it felt like walking through mud to get there. And my char looks like shit now

I don't mean to bust your bubble, but you don't need anything but starting items and regs to train necro from 40-50... I've done so a lot... I like free full books.
Never forget June 4th 1989!
