  • Fixed an issue with miscalculated storage limit for Villa houses placed prior to 7/16/22
  • Fixed an issue with objects created from the Necromancer spell Bone Trap not self-destructing properly over time in some cases

Accidental Vendor Dismissals from Demolishing House

Demolishing a house is now prevented while there are vendors working out of it in order to prevent accidental dismissal of vendors and potential loss of items

Some Missing House Items Recovered

After the recent house updates, it was reported that a small number of houses had some items missing from locked-down containers. We've found and recovered several items that had erroneously moved out of bounds, and they have automatically been moved to the house's Moving Crate. If you had items go missing from your house recently, please check the Moving Crate.

While we are hopeful that this resolves the issue, please be aware that it is not guaranteed to recover all missing items. We don't expect this issue to occur again and we will do our best to avoid such occurrences.

We've added a reminder when opening the house menu that items are inside the moving crate & have also added the Moving Crate item count to the house menu storage info.

Houses placed prior to July 16th, 2022, will now reflect the original storage limit that was in place before the most recent housing changes.

This will be in effect until August 26th, 2022 which coincides with the same time that the House Price refund amount will change, as stated here: https://shardsofbritannia.com/news/release-notes-july-16th-2022

After August 26th, 2022 all houses will be subject to the new storage limits so please be prepared before then.

Due to the house updates, all house doors needed to be re-created and the Security settings will need to be re-set to the desired levels.

We're aware that legacy house values may be appearing incorrectly in the house window & we're working to address it.

We're aware that legacy house storage limits are reduced causing them to be over the limit in many cases & we're working to address it.

Sorry for the inconveniences with these issues, thanks for your support & patience.

Housing-allowed territory has been added in Yew allowing placement around the Yew bank and Moongate. Run, don't walk!

We are releasing a large update that includes exciting features for PvM, dungeons, vendors, and a large housing expansion. A slew of new housing options are now available along with additional quality of life for legacy housing options. Among are new housing options are massive homes such as the castle and large tower. Stay tuned for more options as we will be releasing many more in the future!

A few changes to note for the housing update.

  • Housing pricing has been re-balanced.
  • Housing walls now include conditional transparency.
  • Legacy housing has been automatically migrated.
  • The housing refund percentage has been reduced to 50% from 80%, however this change will not take effect until August 26th, 2022. If a house is refunded before the cut off date the current 80% rate will be refunded.

Along with new housing we are also re-vamping the way vendors work by coupling them with housing itself. This system replaces the current fee based system.

  • The amount of vendors that can be placed at a house is now determined by the type of house. Each house now has a vendor limit associated with it.
  • Vendor Inventory is now limited to 125 items
  • Vendor fees are now weekly instead of daily
  • For legacy housing, if you have too many vendors working out of your house they can continue to work there but you would be unable to add more vendors

In addition to housing we are introducing the first iteration of our questing system in the form of daily bounty quests. Each day a player will be able to obtain up to two bounty quests from the taskmaster Lady Eliana at Britain Bank. These quests are given dynamically based on your character's skill level and will require you adventure all throughout Britannia to complete them. Quest rewards range from gold to rare items and equipment.

Upon logging in players will be greeted with a message stating the 'Daily Dungeon' which is a new bonus players will be able to take advantage of. Players who kill monsters within the daily dungeon will receive an additional 15% gold in loot.

More detailed notes will be released soon!

  • Fixed an issue with the Sacred Runebook's Gate Charge ability trying to consume reagents
  • Fixed the cost of Sacred Charges displaying incorrectly inside the Runebook window in some cases
  • Fixed an issue with player vendors always saying "that is outside the bounds" when trying to reposition them after using the Relocate option and placing them at a different house

For those of you in Discord, we have added a new voice channel called UO Music where you can listen to a loop of UO music from YouTube while you play. Stay a while and listen! :)

Fees are being waived at the moment for retrieving items leftover from vendors in the Account Vault. If you have vendor items in the vault now would be the time to retrieve them :)

Necromancy has had some major updates!

Necromancy relates to the study and casting of dark magic, which deals mostly with death and the dead. With a Necromancer Spellbook, called a Necronomicon, you can curse your foes, animate the dead, and more.

Holiday trees and a number of pot plants are now allowed to be placed outside your house for decoration.

Trapped containers can no longer be used for crafting/harvest/loot/organizer container operations.

Two new rare crystal resources have now been added in game. Ancient Reaper Fragments can be found while lumber jacking and Ancient Elemental Fragments while mining. These fragments can activate two new world bosses.

These events will require a minimum of 4 players (with unique IP’s) and they can be activated with the fragments while standing at the spawners which players will need to find in the overworld.

Citadel Studios has completed the necessary migration for community servers to restore service and we are coming back online now. Thanks to CS for the timely updates!
