Re: Looking for OSI Test Center players.
I have played on test servers including abyss from when i started UO in 98 [can’t remember date of first test i played mind you] up till early AOS, I vaguely remember some names but it’s hard to not bleed the names over from OSI, Test OSI, Defiance, UOG, etc.
So i may not have played with too many on the test, plus i did not use the same name very often, i remember pre aos tests having epic battles at the bridge outside the minoc mine next to gz, it had a bridge that pretty much had 1 side gz other side open woods on the path to vesper.... lot of action on that stretch of land. I was torn between liking the set skills of test and the old method of the gates in britt abyss style, made 9x templates impossible unlike a good set of macros on the setskill tests.
The only name I used semi frequently on OSI AOS testing was OTEP or Otep Shamiya that being when they would give you 1 of each runic kit and hammer and you just had to hope for a good suit, so what I ended up doing was just making 30 toons or however many to get enough kits / hammers to make a good suit, it was also the only time I ever really played AOS because I did not have the time to put in on real servers to update all my characters and get them artifacts, in fact the only arties I ever got were on test cause I could 12 skill template a bard tamer and solo the entire gauntlet, I still remember provoking all that trash spawn on the main boss mob even if I can’t remember its name. Eventually they made it so you could get 1 of each runic and they had like 50k charges or some shit but I kinda stopped EA gay’mes altogether at that point seeing as I only was logging in to test or refresh houses I made it to elves but that’s about it.
