Hello everyone.
I first of all want to say that I am pretty new around here and I came to this shard because I was looking for a Osi-Style Freeshard.
I know that OSI-"Like" is not supposed to mean "exactly the same", and i really love playing on this shard.. even if i'm not italian
BUT: There seem to be some severe problems/differences if you look at the fishing procedures on this server.
And I ALWAYS play my Fisherman-Template.. I really love it. In no other game you can play such a template ;] That's why it is so important to me.
1.)
When I played on OSI, about 2-3 years ago, (I guess most of it has not changed alot.) You could for instance slow forward and fish at the same time.
This is not possible on UOdreams. You can only go one by one.. which is actually OK if you ask me because there is no way around 8x8 to reach GM Fishing anyway. So it's not too much of a trouble.
2.)
When the critters die their corpses can normally (on OSI) be dragged around by the ship. As if the ship becomes the new "floor" for the bodies, instead of the water.
Around here it happens very often that you lose that last kraken, just because of your ship being stuck between 2 sea serpents. And you can do nothing about it. You have to wait a couple of minutes until one of the corpses disappears. No forward, no back, no left no right. (Sometimes even if there is only 1 corpse around)
3.)
About 30 minutes ago I had 3 krakens (Leviatanes?), 1 Sea Serpent and a Water Ele spawning from a Fishing Net. I waited for them with my Summoned Deamon, and I hid myself.. everything looked good. But I quickly noticed, that I would not be able to use "Peacemaking" on any of the monsters because it said: "Too far away." Even if they were only 2-3 Tiles away. I tried at least 10 times. It would simply not work.
My Deamon is dieing because 3 Krakens at once is pretty hard if you ask me. But also because the deamon is always on the edge of the boat, and has no chance in close combat fighting against krakens. I was standing in the middle, like always.. so no close combat for me. (At least that's what i expected.)
I forward away.. still trying to cast "Peacemaking" (Still not working), using some Poison, and throwing those Corp Pors at the Mob which is Hunting me down. My health was looking pretty OK.
I stopped for a bit. Turned left.. and then I wanted to go on with the "Escapation" Fight into the Opposite direction. So I use "turn around" and guess what happens. My ship turns around.. with one of those krakens standing inside of my body.. in the middle of my ship: It felt like being in some horribly disgusting Fisherman-Kraken Porn Movie.
The Kraken hits me in close-combat with 1 Hit.. at Full Energy and I die.
I know that Krakens have some type of "Fire breath" similar to the Dragon's Firebreath, which can take about 3/4 of your Energy. But this was not the "Distance-Firebreath". It was simply 1 Hit in closecombat.
Some people might say no: "So what do you want? You died and so on.. thats all."
The problem is; on a boat you can hardly move alot.. or do some tactics and stuff. You can wait in the middle.. absorb Magic/Distance Attacks as a real Fisherman.
But if you are no longer safe in the middle of the boat. Fishing becomes pretty much meaningless.
And i have a strong feeling that it has something to do with the Settings on this server: I would like to know if there is any possibility for improvement/changes.
How do other OSI-Experienced Fisherman-Players feel about the UOdreams Ruleset, specially for Fishing?
Noticed the same changes?
I really love to play here, dont get me wrong and I didn't know where to post this. I hope there are some answers or suggestions from the dev-team behind UO-dreams, or naturally experiences and comments from other Fishermen.
Enjoy UOdreams. Cya around - And don't forget to reply. ;]
