I suggest putting another box at the fellowship...
donate 8 of the fellowship coins to this box and get the necklace.
thats how many it took to get the original necklace.
And then they can go to the wedding venue and convert it.
Its time to allow entry into the Well of Souls to anyone.
As I have predicted, returning players will be left out. And its hard to borrow from strangers.
Event-only items are attractive reasons to entice players to stay active, so they do not miss out such one-off items.
However, if there are good reasons, players will stop playing no matter what system you have. Who cares about such item when they have other life commitment and need to stop playing.
On the other hand, you robbed paying players of such content. I don't quite like this, might as well turn off all shrine wars and make this completely one time event like invasion.
I feel weird about just handing my medallion out.
But, if I could wear it and add them to my party and be the guide as they enter the Well, that would be fun.
Radst - what shard are you on?
I ask this at a Dev M&G, was told they not going to bring it back and that the UO community here would bend over backward to assist all with getting into the well of souls. Sorry if I do not know you, then you are not going to borrow my medallion. Also I am not about to ask a total stranger to loan me his/her's. Now for 150 million Deposit in my bank account I will glad loan you mine and return the gold when you return mine medallion.
