Ultima Online latest server publish notes - Image 1
 

In case some of you missed it, EA Mythic implemented last night a server update for Ultima Online, the longest running MMORPG to date. There were a lot of changes that concern in-game items, artifacts, and pieces among others.

Without any further ado, here are some of the changes as well as known issues documented by EA Mythic. Do remember though that notes such as these are sometimes incomplete, but the developers promised to inform its players as soon as something else comes up.

Additional Server Publish Notes
  • On Siege Perilous rulesets, all items of clothing that have higher than normal resists - including artifacts, museum pieces, and randomly-generated items with bonus resists or magic properties - will not be able to be blessed with a Clothing Bless Deed. 
  • All currently blessed items will become unblessed, and the CBD will be placed in the players' backpack.
  • Upgraded loot for legacy and Samurai Empire high end monster loot, to more closely match MondainÂ’s Legacy monster loot. This affects mostly boss monsters, but has some impact on other high end monsters as well.
  • Solen powder quest now rewards 4-5 powder.
  • Bags of sending now use 1 charge per 10 stones of weight, rounded up. (15 stones would use 2 charges, for example)
  • Significantly buffed up the Felucca champ spawn bosses.
  • Increased the chance to get better power scrolls from champ spawn bosses.
  • Increased the chance to get better items as loot from champ spawn bosses.
  • Lowered Dread Spider difficulty.
  • Lowered Dread Spider loot to match new difficulty.
  • Swoop has been buffed.
  • Faction stone now checks to make sure that a character is 30 days or older before allowing them to join a faction. Existing characters that are less than 30 days old are forced to quit factions when they log on.
  • "Young" characters and characters less than 30 days old can no longer use faction stones or faction recruiting stones.
  • Players can no longer invite a character less than 30 days old to a faction guild.
  • Fixed a bug with the Tsuki Wolf that was preventing it from dropping the correct loot
Known Issues:
  • The chance to get a powerscroll from protection is less than it should be.
  • Champ bosses are regenerating HP too fast.
  • Champ boss resists are a bit too high in some cases.
  • Champ boss HP is a bit too high in some cases.
  • Swoop is quite a bit more powerful than intended
