Hello,
after a longer absence I started to blow some dust away from my characters and homes.
I checked the armor of one of them and found, that he has a weapon and a tunic both personally blessed for himself. I would have expected one of those blessed with the personal bless deed and one with an item bless deed, so is this a bug or has something else changed in the past?
Before I use some more spare bless deeds on items this would be nice to know.
*Salute*

The old personal bless deeds are now account bound. so you can use another characters on the same account and when applied it takes the name of the character using it.
Talking about Account item bless deeds, is it possible to "unbless" an item and, thus, "re-deed" the item bless deed ? How ?
This might be usefull if one gets a better item and wants to transfer the bless from the old item to the newer, better one....
Worth noting, if you shard hop a character wearing pbd’s they become stuck on the items and unable to remove. Paging a GM can fix the problem but its the only way to get the pbd off the item. Before jumping shards always remember to remove the pbd from any item to avoid this issue. In deed form they may be transferred easily without loss of functionality. Just use the deed after arrival.
It happened to me some 7 years ago while shard hopping to collect all my deeds after finding out players could use them on any account character regardless of shard origin. I still pay my account but haven’t ‘played’ UO in a long time so possible that problem was fixed. I moved on to games that enforce & have code to address cheating. If I have to cheat to play a game... the games not worth playing imho.
I travel shards with personal bless deeds all the time.
They work fine during and after.
Some GMs will not remove them from an item, which is dumb because only the correct account can use them.
There maybe confusion as to the type of bless deed, iirc there are 3 currently; clothing bless deeds, item bless deeds, and personal bless deeds.
I took the OP as asking abt personal bless deeds. In the pic you posted an item bless deed has been used. With those no shard transfer problems arise. If it were a personal bless deed it would have a different tag saying ‘Blessed for (character name)’ not simply ‘Blessed’.
The personal bless deeds are to what I am referring.
GMs will not remove any bless deeds that are not personal bless deeds & afaik only if the removal request is from the account that originally placed the pbd as such deeds are supposed to be able to be removed by their owners.
I have created the page, I will link it once it has gone 'live'.
