OFFICIAL PLAYER KNOWLEDGE CORE

Beta testing focus

What testers should hit hard

  • Haven skill-training loops
  • Starter item delivery and persistence
  • Loot routing and ledgers
  • Fishing and gathering
  • Death/relog/restart persistence
  • Anything that can duplicate, delete, strand or mis-route items

Testing rule

Report what happened, what was expected, character name, location, and whether the issue survives relog/restart. Screenshots are strongly encouraged for visual or inventory problems.

Crafting, BODs and rare rewards

BOD progression

  • Short repeatable BOD cadence targeted at 15 minutes per eligible NPC
  • Completed valid BODs should be able to roll another opportunity quickly
  • 100.0 -> chance at 105 cap scroll
  • 105.0 -> chance at 110
  • 110.0 -> chance at 115
  • 115.0 -> chance at 120
  • Lower-cap scrolls remain useful for trade/resale

Craft Enhancement

  • Profession-specific BOD suits
  • Random +1 to +5 Craft Enhancement pieces
  • Craft Enhancement does not raise displayed skill
  • Runic tools layer on top of trained skill and gear

Ultra-rare craft rewards

  • Independent jackpot-style rolls
  • Tailoring: extraordinary cloth / special materials
  • Blacksmithy: Ancient Smith Hammers and extreme craft-potency variants
  • Inscription: rare quills, runics and Necronomicon materials
  • Comparable profession-specific relic rewards for other crafts

Global rare loot

Eligible monsters will have a very small chance to drop unusual tradable rewards beyond normal loot. Planned rarity bands are Rare, Elite, Ultra-Rare, and Mythic. Higher-risk monsters can access better odds or higher pools. The purpose is to create genuinely uncommon trade, vendor and collector items rather than identical endgame gear for everybody.

Planting, farming and land

Real farm land

  • Players can buy real outdoor parcels
  • A parcel can be a home, farm, garden, or mixed homestead
  • Garden-only land is valid; a house is not required
  • House plots may still be leveled and merged by players

Wilderness building

  • Normal wilderness should remain broadly buildable
  • Forested parcels may retain trees for harvesting
  • Owners may clear/level land and build instead
  • Primary no-build terrain: lakes/open water and mountains

Town plots

  • No normal residential housing inside towns
  • Town plots are for player stores/businesses
  • One commercial plot per player/business
  • Goal: preserve room for other players

Farm loop

  • Seeds, soil, planting, watering, tending and harvest
  • Food, herbs, fibers, dye plants and rare magical crops
  • Harvests feed Cooking, Alchemy, Tailoring, Inscription and trade
  • Rare seeds, unusual hues, ancient seeds and jackpot harvests

The Yard/Garden Wand concept is being adapted into a K9UO-owned system for working purchased outdoor property. The design is inspired by the useful idea, not dependent on another shard's code.
