Wouldn't it be fair if you once got some shard shields for your account and you maybe lost them in an IDOC or something else that you could get them back for free? So if you once had them you can recreate or respawn them in your backpack because you already used a reward point for them?
How would you prove you'd lost them, and not just trying to get them for free without using a pick?
There’s no vet reward that has any ‘respawn’ mechanic once lost under any circumstances. Yet OP suggests introducing this mechanic to arguably the strongest/best vet reward in game. I’ll give u an A+ for wishful thinking but have to respectfully disagree on implementation.
Sorry for your loss. Mariah’s answer reflects the game’s culture on he part of management’s attitude towards it’s players. Regardless of the reason for any loss that’s solely the player’s problem. And, as the original purpose of the idoc was, and apparently still is, to scare players into paying their dues on time, I don’t see anything changing.
I would like to hear Mariahs opinion about my suggestion and reply. What do you think Mariah?
I think that is a decision for UO Devs, not a lowly forum moderator.
