General UO Chat / Use of veteran reward shields to cross shard (14th year reward)
« on: February 15, 2012, 08:11:30 PM »
Anyone out there have any suggestions on what shards I should pick?
I have 2 accounts that are 14 years old finally. One account has 4 vet rewards and the other has 12.
I figured I would use 1 of the 4 on account #1 for my home shard (Pacific) so I can return home.
I figured I would use 2 of the 12 on account #2 for the same home shard.
This leaves me 3 shards for account #1 and 10 shards for account #2.
My main reason to move a character to other shards would be:
1. Pick up holiday items and tickets I never found cross shard traders for (Lake Austin and Origin).
2. Pick up some of those interesting items some of the Japanese shards give you and bring back to my home shard.
3. Buy and sell on other shards more popular or less popular.
4. Do some farming on some of the less populated shards and bring back resources to my home shard to sell.
Any ideas for folks on what shards I should pick?
Thought I would ask around here before making my choices.
I figured I would do like a round robin....on account #1 go to shard A, then B, then C, then return home. Do the same with account #2 but maybe hit more shards before homeward bound.
The shields are non changable once I pick the shard and they accumulate 1 transfer token per month up to 10 tokens before they dont (hold them for you so to speak).
Any input would be appreciated.
