Foray and I defeated Chief Proxysmus! I think we are the first two-man team to do it! It was an awesome hunt  



And since we both did the quest, we defeated him twice!

I do believe Emmaline Oxford and I were the first on the shard to complete the quest to summon and defeat Lady Melisande!

It's not an easy quest or an easy fight to say the least! I think we at least defeated her though without even dying although completing the quest to summon her is another story!

I have a somewhat random game question: If a pet begins with some skills at 120 or higher, but dies and loses some skill, can that pet gain it back up to it's original level? I think this is probly an old question, but I can't remember the answer.

I hate to double post, but figured it might be good to also post about it here in this section.
There has been a new Troubleshooting page added to the Sylvan Website. I hope this helps serve as a general onestop shop for many common troubles. Of course we will likely still be posting here for various strange errors and server crashs, but I hope this new page helps cover many of the common problems.

Check it out here!

There has been a new troubleshooting page added to the Sylvan Website! I know it can sometimes be a pain digging through a ton of forum post even with the sticky post there, so I hope everyone finds this helpful when in need or when helping someone else.

Go check it out and refer those poor troubled souls that way!

[The Fel-T2A quest]

alrighty... well as soon as the major thing of logging in gets fixed... before I end up with withdraw symptoms *twitches* ... I'd like to request having two things added to the to-do list.

1. About quest... some I can understand not having them be repeatable... due to the reward and not wanting it stockpiled and all that... but some quest are the long, just for fun/adventure/challenge kind... and I think it'd not hurt to have them be repeatable. As a matter of fact, it is slightly frustrating that some of them are not! There are two main ones I have in mind.

The Fel-T2A quest - nice reward... but I really don't think people are going to be farming that quest LOL... and even if they do, it is long enough to warrant the reward so much so that if they do actually manage to "get rich" off of it... then wow... power to em! lol

The Holy Grail Quest - LOOOONG (in a good way) and the reward is arguably good... suffice to say, I don't see people stockpiling it or getting rich off it hehe Though it is nice to have

One more quest I'll add now... the wander's quest... not sure if it is repeatable... but it should be if it ain't lol

2. Ok... now... the other thing to add to the to-do list... I'd like to see maybe porc/obsidian Hyrus (or however ya spell it... the Tokuno bird mounts).

Yeah, we'll probably need a scripter for the mounts thing, but the quest I think can be handled in game by the GMs when they get a moment or two or more lol 

*does a copy paste from my other post* 

The purchased skin hue/race stone hues combo bug (not sure if this got fixed or not)
I'd like to see purchased hues be added to the list of hues on a person's race stone or at least become the default hue of the race stone.

A color stone might be an interesting idea... like the race stone except doesn't change a person's race/form... just their color to any of the colors they may have purchased. - This might also fix (or be a work around for) the above mentioned hue bug. (might also aid a little in some RP?)

Can rune augments be removed yet, or is there any particular reason that rune augments are purposefully made not to be removed?  This is kind of a big desire of mine considering I am holding off using any because of their "glitchiness" in combo with not being able to be removed.  Scary combo.

I wanted to say how I liked so many of the ideas I read about today... so rather than bumping a lotta post and trying to say something different in each one... I'll compile a list here of the things I would love to see the most which I have seen suggested  

Tents! - Yes it does sound great for RPing!
Robes with removable hoods - here here! (yes!)

Maybe a twist on the original VS for skill points idea... I think someone already thought of this but...
Pay some VS to exchange skill points in one skill to another (not raise a skill by itself but exchange between)
Perhaps 1 VS could change over so many skill levels from one to another (this might also allow for Chiv to get to 120... Although I'd love to reach it before anything like this happens just to say I have done so and done something rare and got a neat title to show off LOL) (Although I will likely never even get close... running low on skill room as it is hehe)  However... I do remember seeing a donation thing (as I believe was mentioned on this subject) to get a skill to 120, but that you have to have room for that many points... I don't wanna hurt any donations!  Perhaps on this donations thing, let it take points out of one or more areas if needed.  (don't know if ya already do or not... just saying my 2 cents hehe)

NPC Hirelings... improving existing usage?  I didn't know they existed at all... How and where can I hire some? And the idea of using them sort of like "non-pet-pets" with different commands and the ability to equip them and all that... sounds great! I love the idea and hope it is possible one day  

Now one of my own ideas... well... I  don't mean to complain (so please don't take it as such as honestly this really doesn't matter that much to me, but I'm just mentioning it anyway) the exchange between augment levels in the transmutation box... kinda steep seeming to me.  Maybe because it takes me forever it seems to get even one low level augment... the task of collecting tons of mid-level ones to change to higher level ones is very... well... dawnting to me.  Perhaps is easier for other players... but for me... seems to take forever to get just one low level augment LOL (ya maybe because my luck is pitiful hehe) So obviously what I'm asking is for an easier to reach exchange rate if that is reasonable. (don't know if that has been asked before, I hate to re-ask stuff like this so sry if I did)

Some of this stuff sounds fairly simplistic... I could possibly work on some scripting for the hooded cloak thing and the tents... the NPC hireling thing might be  a bit out of my immediate league as I am fairly rusty on my UO script editing skills atm... Of course anything I do depends on how much free time I have and if I wanna play the game atm or work on it LOL!  I just recently got back into UO, so I am very much enjoying just playing for now hehe.  Still, Maybe if I get some stuff scripted up, I can pass it on to some of you staffers and see what you think  

Of course I'm not sure if it is script help that is needed to get things added or even if any extra help is wanted at all, but I'm just offering the possibility of help if you wouldn't mind me trying   (particularly on these things listed... not sure if having a close to complete script might help convice anyone to add things hehe)

All this aside, I want to let the staff and everyone know that I LOVE Sylvan Heart! These additions might be nice as would others people might think up, but for me... You really don't have to change anything because this place is beyond wonderful!  

Thank you!
 

I patched and patched and patched... All the way up to version 6.0.1.6

But Sylvan Heart says version 4.0.5b?

Greetings and solutions all... well I wish I had solutions hehe  

Anyway... I just got my account and am trying to get in.  I have used the One-click gateway link and it gets it into my UOGateway, but when I try to use it... it takes "forever" verifying the account.  It's been a while (oh yea... a long while... like years) since I've been in UO, so I figure maybe my stuff is old or I'm doing something wrong... I dunno.  

So... HEEEEEeeeeeellllp.... please  

and thanks
