12 Hours a Bard | New Player Farming in Ultima Online Outlands

[@LostCrumpet]

Hey all, I hope you enjoyed my first adventure into Ultima Online Outlands. New videos to follow, but for now, you can find me live over on Twitch every Friday and Saturday: twitch.tv/CrumpetXD

[@scandinaviannegro]

Amazing video, keep it up!

[@LostCrumpet]

@@scandinaviannegro Thanks fella! Will do, working on my next one now :) Appreciate the kind words!

[@PwnstarrGaming]

Dude ! That was great !! Really well done ! You have amazing story telling abilities ! Loved it !

[@LostCrumpet]

Thanks Pwn! Appreciate you answering my questions on Discord, and you know, making the video that inspired me to run this build :D

[@lunabeann]

Awesome video! I trained up in the same places over a year and a half ago as a bard when i started aswell! Was a nice little trip down memory lane. I never played ultima before Outlands, and i love it so much. I knew one day the newness of it would wear off and i would start feeling nostalgia for this new but old game. That day has come today

[@LostCrumpet]

Haha, thanks Joel! Appreciate you watching!

[@benjamink1403]

I love your videos! Your narration is spot-on! Please make more!

[@LostCrumpet]

Thank you! I do really miss making them, sadly life got in the way :(

[@space_audits]

This video was well done. It inspired me to check it out and partake in some online adventuring with the lads. Thanks for sharing story / progression.

[@notryland1]

Great video my dude. One thing I would say for new players is to check out the sanctuary dungeon each week. You can’t commit criminal actions in the sanctuary dungeon, so there’s no PKs or thieves to worry about, meaning that you can explore in peace, only worrying about the mobs themselves. It’s a great way to learn a dungeon. Keep the videos coming!

[@LostCrumpet]

Oh, I didnt know that! Thanks for sharing!

[@damjnet8751]

You should know the big downside. 50% reduced gold and XP. So you would need 18h to reach the same valie you got. Were your deaths worth 6h of your time ? I doubt it ;)

[@Krhonozz]

@@damjnet8751 but u can explore first 1 hour the dungeon, not my type of gameplay but its good advice

[@RelExpo]

Fantastic video! This will help many players out and I can't wait to see more!

[@LostCrumpet]

Thanks Rel, appreciate all the work you do!

[@heartblood]

Please keep going at these type of videos! No matter your experience level in Outlands, this is so enjoyable and precious for new players as well :)

[@LostCrumpet]

Thanks Raphael! I have a new video coming out this Sunday, it's a new "Story", but with a similar format. My next video will be story based still, but very different. Appreciate you watching and commenting!

[@Frownly]

I subbed love a fellow uo outlands supporter and promoter keep up the vids I love it🎉

[@LostCrumpet]

Thanks Joel, really appreciate it!

[@hexorcist4537]

Yea started up outlands 2 weeks ago. Have yet to run in to anyone friendly. Just people luring mobs on me or straight up pking me.

[@LostCrumpet]

Ah damn, sorry to hear that! I've not had that experience personally

[@Zawazuki]

Awesome video. Subbed!

[@SweetmanTV_]

Wow that was a lucky few runs! Love me some Crumpet! Great video buddy!

[@berriganp30]

Solid work! 12 hours 700k is nothing to scoff at. Some serious dedication!

[@LostCrumpet]

Thanks Patrick!

[@Domitiani]

@@LostCrumpet How much does it cost to buy the house you want? When I looked at Outlands I turned away because of the lack of real estate (I used to love IDOC hunting and placing my own house)

[@LostCrumpet]

@@Domitiani There is a new landmass coming soon -- the Wildlands (I think!). This will add lots of new house spots, and I hope drive down the retail market. There's A LOT of houses for sale in Discord atm. I've seen quite a few I like for around 5million. So it's pretty attainable.

[@LostCrumpet]

(Although the BIGGER houses are expensive, but I cant be bothered decorating something huge :D)

[@Lord_Praximus]

Sick vid!

[@LostCrumpet]

Thanks Praximus! Your paper is sick!

[@dylan_uo9619]

Watched your other video this video is just as good !!! Maybe do 12 hrs Lockpicking next =]?

[@LostCrumpet]

Yeah Lockpicking looks VERY fun. Agreed it has to happen!

[@omgwtfhax]

great content brother

[@LostCrumpet]

Heck yeah, thanks hax!

[@zoneseek81]

Great video.

[@LostCrumpet]

Thanks Zone! Appreciate it!

[@Model192]

If only you saw discordance before the nerf. :(

[@LostCrumpet]

I really want to try a disco archer one day, hopefully its rebuffed by then :D

[@mattmitchell7934]

Thats exactly how my bard almost died when I got too confident. when that guy came off the horse and U have to deal with them both, I wasnt ready.

[@LostCrumpet]

Haha yeah. I've changed to a Provo Bard recently, so I am finally ready :D

[@CptRedBeardUO]

No different than what I did and what I tell new players to do if they are a bard. Still grinding out my bard to this day one monster at a time. Started as a peace bard fencer. Finished fencing codex did macing then swordsmanship. When I switched to archery I also changed from peacemaking to provocation. Never looked back. T14 lyric now with 13 links unlocked. Enjoyed the video keep it up See you around Outlands I’m sure CptRedBeard is my Main character

[@LostCrumpet]

Heck yeah Dig! I'm really enjoying it, and can definitely see me going down the same route as you overtime.

[@Alcsaar0]

This video kinda highlights the problem with Outlands. Having reds is okay. Having this many reds is not. In true classic UO dungeons were packed with blues and reds were relatively rare already thanks to actual downsides like no access to towns and meaningful stat loss for dying. There should be a risk of reds coming, but it should never be a guarantee that every X minutes you're going to have a red after you, like there currently is.

[@LostCrumpet]

For me its ebs and flows, some weeks I see no PKs, other weeks.... a lot :). During the week it's pretty quiet, but at the weekend, it's a bi rougher for sure.

[@jayyrod1]

You should check out pwnstars necro summoner template. It's a pvp/PvE hybrid build that does not excel in either category but gets the job done. I started one after I got fed up with being PKed on my bard and while I still get PKd sometimes, it's nice to be able to turn the tables at any given moment and watch them run from me lol, other than that I travel in a group or run the sanctuary dungeon. I think sourgrape has a similar build but on a lumberjacker with just enough magery to use some important scrolls.

[@Thauron77]

yes!!!

[@LostCrumpet]

Woooo! Thanks for watching Thauron!

[@-Prestoned-]

Keppem comin!

[@LostCrumpet]

Will do! Next one will start this week, ill try and get it out in about two weeks :)

[@Will-fv3qt]

Random aquafps gif made me laugh lol

[@LostCrumpet]

Haha, alrighttttt!

[@Will-fv3qt]

@@LostCrumpet I meant to say clip not gif lmao

[@larathian]

Just saw the video. Try backstabber :) its the best. Safe and well in every situation when you get used to it. I can't play anything without it after i got used to it :P

[@LostCrumpet]

Yeah, I am tempted to try the Backstabber Archer!

[@whiiterhiino1]

One video, you can’t post a banger like that and just leave me wanting more

[@LostCrumpet]

Haha, thank you! New video out on Sunday actually! Good timing it looks like :D

[@Apocalypse_1.0]

Check out Shards if Britannia!

[@LostCrumpet]

One Shards enough for me atm, but maybe one day! :)

[@jackdyer78]

im sure ive seen you! :D ive just started also

[@LostCrumpet]

Hah, probably! You'll see me running from mobs on level three of most dungeons as 'A Crumpet', or farming leather in dungeons as 'a tasty crumpet'. Either way, don't be surprised if you see my corpse :P

[@MacrosBlackD]

Could you share a screenshot of your echo page showing your template?

[@LostCrumpet]

I can type it here, it's basic as heck :D 100 Chiv 100 Music 100 Peacemaking 100 Discordance 100 Macing 100 Tactics 100 Tracking Simple build for a new player like me :D (Btw, I only found out about Echos last week, very cool!)

[@stevenm22]

You can go 12 hours on AK and not get pk'd....I got 30 mins anywhere and get jumped by 5..

[@LostCrumpet]

I will say, PKs are more prevelant atm, especially the weekends. It comes and goes though, some weeks i see no PKs, then nothin but PKs! Even got hit by a stealth mage today :(

[@stevenm22]

@CrumpetXD Yeah, I see that! I'm no means a Trammie or anything, but when I'm just farming level 1/2 and get pk'd for no reason, it's just annoying. Love your content btw!

[@LostCrumpet]

@@stevenm22 yeah, being pk'd on level one or two is lame! Dunno what PKs expect from a newish player on level one :/

[@mikehunt9884]

you need to find a gate escape macro, clicking on stuff when you're being chased by reds is not ideal, you want to just be able to hit one hotkey and be out when you're near the gates

[@LostCrumpet]

Yeah I just set one up, it's game changing :D

[@zacharysmith2725]

How did you change the UI like that?

[@LostCrumpet]

Hey Zachary, you might know, so sorry if this is obvious, but, UO Outlands has greatly improved the vanilla client, it's 100x better than the retail version. If you did know that, and it's more about a specific change I made, I just watched this video from JaceOwns, and implemented his suggestions: kzbin.info/www/bejne/pnPSkGpumcZlodE

[@UKEYsPOWER]

You sure its UO? You kill drake in first hours of play?

[@LostCrumpet]

Oh, to clarify this character is 7x GM; however, that doesnt really mean much anymore -- there are so many new progression mechanics that 7xm GM is just the start, still a newbie character. Im a new player to Outlands, but this wasnt my first 12 hours on the Shard. Id been playing for a month at this point.

[@edo7480]

how did you menaged to get enought money in such a short amount of time for 2 codex and 1 aspect too??? O_O

[@LostCrumpet]

Hey Edo! Uuuh, im a farmer haha :D. Honestly the GOLD is good, but not amazing, it's the ITEMS that are great. I'd argue you should keep items for later, future characters etc, but I sold them to make a kick start my progression.

[@edo7480]

@@LostCrumpet thanks. I'm having trouble selling the good item I get cause I have no house and no vendor.. don't really where to start ahha

[@LostCrumpet]

@@edo7480 the official Discord has a 'Sell' section, its very active! I sold most of my stuff there.

[@xoresgaminghub5412]

How did you unlock aspect ? how long did it take you? Am i supposed to really create alt gatherer to be able to unlock it? I chosen dexxer with chivalry as main and i cant really make much gold

[@LostCrumpet]

Hello! I unlocked it ONLY using my Chiv Bard, I didn't do any gathering (until very recently). I think it cost me about 100k in total, but keep in mind I was Lyric which was a little cheaper. I think the main thing is keep in mind it's meant to be something to work toward, and not a quick unlock. Codex, Aspect and Chains are your grind >> and then Aspect and Chains will be your grind thereafter for a long time. I just hit Aspect Level 8 and i FINALLY feel strong... only 7 more levels of grinding to go:P All of my starting gold came from my Bard, but now, like you say, gathering is a great way to get gold. 5K ingots will get you 90-100k. One thing you could do is get a skinning knife, and after every kill skin an enemy -- it'll be slow, but 5k Leather is about 10k gold, and it's very easy to do. You can do it with ZERO Forensic Eval as well, you'll get less leather, but less is better than nothing. But yeah Ultima Online Grindlands is real, personally I like it as it's something to work for, but it's slow for sure. Hit me up on Discord, im in the Outlands Discord as CrumpetXD, i'll give you 50k tonight to help you out, im pretty poor as I just bought a bunch of stuff, but hopefully 50k helps you move forward.
