Dynamic event
Dynamic events or dynamic Treasures events are limited-time events in which players defeat marked creatures to receive minor artifacts that drop in their pack, which can be turned into an artifact trader for points. A variety of rewards can be purchased with these points. Publish 109 released in 2020 was designed to assist Event Moderators and the UO dev team with an easier way to create customized dynamic events with less 'back-end' work. Since this publish, the "Treasures of" events have become an annual offering.
Event details
Event creatures will be identified with a unique item property and have a chance to spawn as a Paragon. Minor artifact drops are subject to diminishing returns when fighting the same creature. The minor artifacts and trade in rewards are shard-bound, and points cannot be transferred to other shards.
