Mesanna: please check and let me know if it is not working properly
Delian Mars: and i wanted to beg for a change with leaf armor

Delian Mars: could it be enhanced with wood since it comes from a tree 🙂
Delian Mars: rather than leather

Mesanna: you could not mediate in it
Delian Mars: oh ok sorry my mistake
Mesanna: thats ok
Delian Mars: didnt get that part
Delian Mars: ty vm gn
Mesanna: lol doesn’t hurt to ask

 

Mesanna: Greetings Zath
Zath Stoneworker: Good evening, M’lady, Misk.
Misk: Hi
Zath Stoneworker: First, a bit of unpleasant business. Origin store.
Zath Stoneworker: Is there a way for us, the community, to put pressure on them so that the store inventory is normalized?
Zath Stoneworker: I would be most okay with saying thing about the future of their knees physical integrity if that is what it will take to have stygian absyss and get high seas back to the Brazil store!
Mesanna: There is no way they are going to change the origin store
Mesanna: but
Mesanna: we are working to get it under our control
Mesanna: so you can buy off our web site
Mesanna: and have more options for payment
Mesanna: but I do not see that being finished till next year
Zath Stoneworker: That would be extremely handy. It has been frustrating to not have stygian abyss available to us.
Mesanna: I agree I have brought up these issues many times
Zath Stoneworker: Second, a small suggestion.
Zath Stoneworker: Mele fighters tend to be fun to play due to their standing power, thanks to hit life leech and hit mana leech.
Mesanna: but Origin store is not under out control
Zath Stoneworker: Yes, I understand that. I have also tried to bring that up to them to no avail.
Zath Stoneworker: But back to my small suggestion. So, if, say, mages could use a expensive consumable to enhance their spellbooks with spell life leech and spell mana leech, up to 10%, they could be as fun to use for PvM as mele fighters.
Zath Stoneworker: Make said consumables 250K gold per, with a biased bell curve distribution with 80% chance of the leech property being 4% to 8%
Zath Stoneworker: and you will also have a nice gold sink with people burning gold to max out their spellbooks for PvM.
Zath Stoneworker: And on top of that, this change could make content a bit easier to balance since mages would have almost as much staying power as Mele fighters with leeches or necromancy.
Mesanna: nice suggestion we will discuss it
Zath Stoneworker: Thanks. Lastly…
Zath Stoneworker: I don’t remember seeing any mention of a strange lady lying in a pound distributing swords handing one to Lord Blackthorn,
Zath Stoneworker: our fair and evil king, to whom I pledged alliance, but I wonder how legit is his claim to the throne of Sosaria if the former has not happened.
Zath Stoneworker: Everyone knows that strange women lying in ponds distributing swords is the only proper basis for a system of government!
EM Erebus: Everyone knows supreme executive power derives from the mandates of the masses
EM Erebus: Not some aquatic ceremony.
Mesanna: lol
Mesanna: I really don’t know what to say to that =)
Zath Stoneworker: I just couldn’t pass the opportunity to jest and quote Monty Python!
Zath Stoneworker: Thanks and good night M’lady, Misk, Erebus.
Mesanna: lol *nods*
Mesanna: Good night
Mesanna: thank you

Gift: Hello everyone!
Mesanna: Greetings Gift
Gift: So I have two questions…
Mesanna: ok
Gift: First would be any plans to fix kotl automatons so they can be healed by gift of renewal and cleansing winds?
Kyronix : Automatons are not living creatures, so no
Gift: but even the uo wiki says the other crafted creatures can be healed by them 🙁
Mesanna: which ones specific
Mesanna: the leather wolfs?
Gift: I would assume the wolves scorpian and others
Mesanna: we will review the wiki and correct it
Gift: ahh okies
Mesanna: we will check and fix this
Gift: Second question is can we get a new vet reward maybe something like battered old shard shield that works like a transfer shard shield but generates a token maybe once every 6 months or something at a reduced age cost x3
Mesanna: we are not going to be making any other transfer items
Mesanna: other than the one we have already
Gift: aww… getting to 14 years is … difficult but okay 🙁
Gift: thank you all for your time
Mesanna: thank you
