Getting Started with Project Ultima

Welcome to Project Ultima, a custom UO:R Felucca-only shard built with love and fresh innovations. Whether you're a vet or new to the world of Sosaria, this guide will help you begin your journey.

🔧 Installation (BETA)

🧙‍♂️ Character Creation

  • Choose a class on creation (custom templates visible on the patched launcher).
  • You’ll start in a custom New Player Training Hall and Newbie Dungeon.
  • Training Credits are awarded at character creation—use them with skill trainers to get a head start.

⚔️ PvP on a Felucca-Only Shard

Project Ultima uses the classic Felucca ruleset—this means:

  • PvP is **always enabled** everywhere outside guard zones and Newbie zone.
  • You can be attacked (and attack others) in dungeons, wilderness, or even towns without guards.
  • There are no Trammel-safe zones. Death is part of the experience!
  • Reputation counts: Blue = innocent, Grey = criminal, Red = murderer.
  • You **can** lose items when killed—keep your valuables banked or insured (if systems allow).

Tip: Travel prepared, and always expect the unexpected. Dungeons and lucrative farming spots are especially dangerous.

💬 Connect with the Community

  • [Join the Discord](https://discord.com/invite/R9mqTYEdhP) to find groups, ask questions, and track events.
  • Link your Discord in-game (via the PU Stamp button on your paperdoll) to qualify for prize packs and leaderboards.
  • Use the in-game interface to access key features. Learn how to use the Main Menu and link your Discord account.

🌍 What Makes Project Ultima Unique?

  • Classic UO:R ruleset with modern balance changes
  • Felucca-only gameplay for open PvP and resource contention
  • Custom systems: Rare Loot, Relics, Talismans, and Pet Leveling
  • Anti-AFK gathering mechanics and smart resource drops
  • Crafting Zones for bonus skill gains
  • New Player experience zones and training systems

🚪 First Steps In-Game

  • Explore the Newbie Dungeon to level up and get familiar with mechanics
  • Use your Training Credits with skill trainers
  • Kill mobs and loot Treasure Bags, early rare loot, or skill scrolls
  • Open the in-game Main Menu (PU Stamp on paperdoll) to access:
 * Buff Tracker, Durability UI, Quest Tracker, Crafting Menu, Wiki Link, and more

📌 Stay Informed

💡 New Player Tip

Many rare loot drops like **Treasure Bags** and **Lustrous Cloth** scale with mob difficulty. Farming harder content increases your chance to hit valuable rewards.
