Potion of Glorious Fortune Gone from UO Store?

Not seeing it on the front page nor the search. Is this gone again already? If so, why? The Hythloth event still has a month to go. Why would this be removed???? Maybe it's just a glitch? @Kyronix can you let us know please sir? Thanks. 

Seems you have all bought out the stock of Glorious Fortune potions, fear not however!  The elves have been busy harnessing the power of luck from many a rabbits, leprechauns, and 4-leaf clovers to return the supply.  Happy hunting!

(Many rabbits, leprechauns, and 4-leaf clovers were harmed in the production of these items.)

Why make them shard bound might as well make all store items shard bound as well. they cost the same no matter the shard. Heck make all store items shard and account bond when at it.

wait a minute. so we can get them from rabbits?  thats what YOU said @Kyronix. YOU have to make this so now! or you're a big fat liar!

they added the shard bound to them
when they gave them to us for free
(during Treasures of Khaldun)

might mess up the named ones 
if they made them shard bound

================

DEVs please don't make the other store items shard bound
or account bound
people don't sell the store items on my home shard

Am just saying the potions should not be shard bound, anything in the store should not be shard bound. but if there going to chose what they want shard bound then everything in there store needs to be shard and account bond. make everything shard and account bond.even EM drops. that will fix the gold issue. no one will be selling them. even go back and make all SB, EM, Seer items account and shard bound, That will do away with alot of the gold issues. That will fix the idoc issue as well people will only be going to place not to try and loot anything already most of the good stuff is deleted now anyway. Cinderella said:

@Danpal bad idea at this point. Small shards will become deader because more people will flee to ATL.

Never, Siege and Origin will always be the home of the Vic Clan.  even if i am the only one left on Origin (although I Know @Tyrath wont, and suspect @Larisa wouldn't leave either)

Beg to differ, this applies to existing players sticking to own shard 100% of the time. This is why we don’t see many active players complaining about this because it’s not a big issue, yet.

But it’s building up over time and the best way to see this is like what some had already suggested, trying to implement this overnight and see what happens. Full shard bound for all items, and no more character transfer. So all characters will stay where they are permanently.

Before I leave my beloved Drachenfels someone would have to turn off the lights from way up high

---------
Altlantik is always the loser either way, even if people come to it first because they think life would be so much easier there....

And... is that really the case? I see it a bit differently. At some point when the wind changes, as soon as people realise that the "promised land" doesn't keep its promises - that the area where I wanted to put my dream house is already occupied and only plots for 7x7 mini-houses can be found, the dream house or the item I absolutely want is offered massively overpriced or when I meet players or guilds who know nothing but their own ego. Inevitably, everyone - every shard - loses, even the small ones, because the players also lose something - namely the desire to continue, and in the end the whole game loses.

The biggest mess for this game has been created right on Atlantik, where this Shard can shine as long as it wants - if no one is there to clean it properly, it will soon look just as dirty as on all the others

Shard Bounding  ***ANY***  item has had the ***ONLY*** effect to make its price skyrocket on ***ALL*** the Shards, as by now is CLEAR and EVIDENT to anyone not in bad faith (I rule out plain incompetence at this point).

I disagree there were no event items for sale Origin before shard bound and there are no event items for sale now the same for PS.  BUT i know the event items are still here unlike the PS which are farmed like crazy and sent right to Atlantic now your argument is that people will just transfer eat shard bound PS and leave but at least they'd have to buy 2transfer token and there would be PS for sale..

I may  be mis-remembering, but as I remember it, there was bad feeling at some treasures type events because the shard residents found it difficult to participate at all because of the overwhelming number of 'visitors' flooding the location, making the ratio of players to spawn untenable.  Shard bound isn't just a matter of the cost of the items, it was having them available for the shard residents at all.  While the people who farm items to sell are unhappy, I have a feeling the people who want them for their own characters on the shard they call home are quite content.

Quoted for truth.

Shard bound, and I have been saying this since they started, are a blessing come true for low population shards.

I play in a super Low pop shard. Is there a good post somewhere listing the clear, detailed benefits of shard bound wearable artifacts, with proven facts since they are two years old? 

It really should be possible for a crafter to make these potions (glorious luck potion, transmog potions, etc).  Make the crafting require boss/rare crafting materials.

I will NEVER go to Atlantic. I like to *window shop* but very rarely buy anything there unless I happen to get very lucky and find something I want for a decently low price.

I am slowly working on bringing my vendors up. I always have furniture, runebooks, BOD books misc. Needful things like Bone Machete, fort powder, +5 mining gloves...for the TRUE new player....working on mark/gate/recall scrolls and city/dungeon runebooks because all I have now are empties.

Problem is people don't START on a low pop shard. They ask *Where should I start?* and 99% of the time the answer is Atlantic.

And they should last for a reduced time as well. maybe 10 minutes. like the Craftable SS fragment requires the hard to get reagent, and is only one use. I could get on board with that.

That's one of the reasons I have the vendor default priced repairs, to try to retain people new to the shard. guess i need to see about a repair station and do some basic armor as well.   

There's two repair benches set to public in Luna 

EJ accounts can't use locked down resources so it's good that Vic puts his repair deeds on the vendor. I have a returning player that I will be giving a vendor too soon, gonna get him to make beginner LRC suits and stuff. I am working on city/dungeon runebooks. I keep empties on my vendor but it's nice to have full ones too.

Hoping to get the shard good for new/returning players!

Someone did scalis today so i collected some of the lrc stuff to build new player suits with

That's a very commendable effort, too bad that, being all these items not "Shard Bound", if one prices them too low, chances are that some "buy low-sell high" player might buy them to then resell them higher on Atlantic for a profit..... and in doing so, they deprive low population Shards of many items, reasonably priced, to be found on Vendors....

See why Shard Bound is a great thing for low population Shards ? It avoids the "buy low - sell high" thing from a low Population Shard to Atlantic, to be possible in the first place.....

If a *Buy Low/Sell High* player is so desperate as to buy bone machete's and +5 mining gloves....

Seriously Popps stop with the shard bound crap...some things NEED to be shard bound. Sell them on your shard to get the NON shard bound gold!

I usually buy the Treasures Of drops for 2 mil per. I used one potion and did not see any change in the amount of drops I got so I rarely get enough to get the things I want. 
 
Ice dungeon I did well, the rest of them not so much. This time around I am getting mostly weapons, I have gotten ZERO bone pieces and 2 plate arms and 2 plate gorgets.

I'd like to have at least one complete suit so right now all I need for that is a leather cap.

So more power to the buy low sell high guys that buy my 300g new player items to resell lol.

Remove shard bound entirely, make shard transfers cheap and easy for everyone($2 store token, or obtainable in game, free 1x monthly per paid accredited, etc).  My guess is a cheap store token generates more revenue than the current system, so bonus for Broadsword.
Make vendor search default across all shards so one menu sees everything for sale on all shards.  Eventually the game becomes homogenized and everyone has relatively equal access to goods and resources. Separate shards mainly exist as housing land masses.
I’d prefer the shards had been kept entirely separate, but that ship is long sailed.  Might as well embrace it fully.

• I was at Atlantic and died to a Paragon Balron at level 1.
• I logged off on the spot to save the pet, logged in as a ghost, and ran to the dungeon entrance to get rezzed.
• I gear up, log off and on again to get my mount, ran back in and the Balron is dead.
• I clicked on the corpse and was able to loot from it.
• So maybe the others are right, you could have clicked on the wrong corpse.

Agreed, opening up is always better. It probably saved the game and let it run longer than 20 over years.

Again I could point out we have a few completely shard locked shards oddly enough the economy is best one one. why do we ignore this long term example when discussing shard bound???

People keep thinking of Atlantic.

Once I was searching for a specific slayer spellbooks, and I actually logged into almost ALL the shards to find them. Recently I was also searching for the gargoyle armor from Abyss Dungeon, and its not on sale anywhere. Mask of Travesty - Magery - is also becoming a rare item and not found on Atlantic.

 😂 Ok thanks, it’s was very informative and I am convinced.
So many of us wrote so much and all you guys have are healthy, good, buy Low sell high… Alright I a, convinced Shard Bound is working as intended. 

And of all people u are asking Broadsword to sell the rewards on uo store because you don’t want to grind. I thought your shard’s healthy economy is booming with dungeon rewards, since they are locked down in your shard.
