Publish Notes

Here are the publish notes for publish 76 coming to TC1. Enjoy!

Gardening System

  • Vanilla has been added to the Gardening System
  • Vanilla seeds can be found on Exodus mobs inside Exodus Dungeon
  • Vanilla plants will produce vanilla and additional vanilla seeds
  • Vanilla plants cannot be cross-pollinated with other plants
  • It is possible to get mutant colored vanilla plants using conventional gardening techniques

Covetous Dungeon Revamp

Level One

Still a great place to farm feathers but added a few surprises.

Level Two - Contains the Void Pool

Covetous Level 2 represents a new style of PvM for Ultima Online. Instead of farming monsters for treasure, the players’ task is to defend the Void Pool from Cora’s minions. Cora will invade the dungeon with endless waves of monsters. Each wave is tougher than the last. The monsters do not drop loot, and instead players score points for making kills or assisting in making kills.

Level Three – Cora and her Minions

When she was denied advanced knowledge of mana by the Codex of Infinite Wisdom, the sorceress Cora became enraged. In her pique, she poured all of her enormous energy into a magical spell and focused it onto the Codex. Despite the sheer power of the Codex, she wrested a few pages from its binding.

The magical blast also bored a hole through the Void Between Places, anchored by a section of stone from the Codex’s podium. Cora and the pages from the Codex were pushed through the hole in space.

The far end of the hole erupted into the middle of Dungeon Covetous. Injured, and with her own ability to channel mana damaged, Cora retreated deeper into the dungeon. Over time, she recovered, and now sends minions enhanced by magic to attempt to capture more pages of knowledge from within the Void Pool.

Use of travel spells near the Void Pool in Covetous is impossible because of the twist in space, so Cora must gate her minions into the dungeon from a distance.
