Annoying Human quest

Starting it doesn't work properly (Nedrick says he's too busy, but it
still triggers the toggle that makes the relevant npcs give you the
quests).

I think it sets them all up, so if you do them io the wrong order, you
still get the quests, but they keep offering them until you've done the
previous quest (if you see what I mean).

I assumed that going to the guy in vesper (for the crate delivery) was
first, so I did that, then struggled to get 10 power crystals for the one
in bucs den. I then did the fire/ice quest, and also the escort - but that
ended with a bag of trinkets, rather than the humanity reward.

Now the guy in bucs den is asking for *more* power crystals, which makes
me realise that you have to do them in a specific order, otherwise you end
up doing each one more than once. Now I have to find more power crystals
(I think) which is a nightmare.

How a crafter is supposed to do this quest, is beyond me. You have to kill
5 efreets and 5 ice fiends (in fire and ice dungeons respectively).

Golems drop them in Wrong, IIRC.

Which is, of course, no wonder. All human characters get the traits when
you upgrade, the skills simply don't show. UOAssist doesn't reflect the
full strength capacity, but the stats pane does.

I'd made the assumption that you had to do the quest to 'reclaim your
human heritage' - as mentioned in the blurb, but evidently that only
applies to those wishing to switch to human from elf.

Aye, not often though. Overseers have them 100% of the time, but they're a
bit tougher (both are a pain in the arse for tamers, either way).

I was sniffing around on your web site and those are some nice
pictures, but I'll be damned if I can find that place anywhere on the
Atlantic server....

Yeah, I may have to try that out. The 6th char on my 1st account is
basically a copy of my main char. He started out to be something
different and I basically ended up with my favorite template again.

But now maybe an elf...

I have watched a few episodes of The L Word, so I think I could play an
elf.

I think I need to re-upload my UO section. I'd honestly never anticipated
playing again! :)

He tells me that the elf char is really good for mages, so I'll
probably run that quest on my mage. After 3-4 tries I finally got an
english speaking person in EA support to read my email and was told to
send some info and I will be able to qualify for pre-order status when I
make my order. Woohoo! I hope this work so I can get me another Charger...

Accents don't rebroadcast very well through email though.

Stayed at a friend's house because she was just down the road from the
hotel hosting Origins. The gang piled into my car that morning and we
set off to register. As we left she and another girl came running out
the house, waving and yelling, "HAVE FUN STORMING THE CASTLE!" then
pantomimed muttering the next line from the movie to each other.

That was one of the better gaming conventions we attended. The
punch-drunk Samoan on Monday night capped it for us.

Is Cyrus OK? Haven't heard from him here in ages. I think he might be quite
positive about some of the new features in ML.

He's on AOL dial up. Yeah, don't ask me... But he still shmoozes
around at the UO forums on Stratics, which is how I mailed him. I sent a
PM through the forum.
