Special Item Properties

Stygian Abyss Item Properties

Largely restricted to members of the Gargoyle race, the Stygian Abyss expansion included the following properties:

Original Item Property System

The original item property system lasted for over 5 years and consisted of only 5 item properties. Prior to Ultima Online: Age of Shadows, the item properties were:

While there were many different types of hit spell, a weapon could only have one, so it is counted here as a single property.

Armor

A piece of armor had up to three properties:

  1. Armor Resistance Increase: (Defense, Guardian, Hardening, Fortification and Invulnerability);
  2. Durability: (Durable, Substantial, Massive, Fortified and Indestructible);
  3. Blessed or Cursed.

Example: "Indestructible Platemail Helm of Invulnerability with Weaken spell.

Weapons

As for weapons there were five properties.

  1. Damage Increase (Ruin, Might, Force, Power, and Vanquishing);
  2. Battle Tactics Skill Bonus (Accurate, Surpassingly Accurate, Eminently Accurate, Exceedingly Accurate and Supremely Accurate);
  3. Durability
  4. Slayer; and
  5. Hit Spell.

Notes on Original System

  • Some spells that were available on weapons prior to the Age of Shadows are not available now, Clumsy, Weaken, Feeblemind, Mana Drain, and Curse.
  • An item to note is how little the Damage Increase property affected the weapon damage output under the old system. Vanquishing added only 9 points of damage to the total. If a Heavy Crossbow can do up to 56 points of damage before resistances are taken into account, then the Vanquishing property only increases the crossbow damage output 14% to 65, which is a far cry from the 100% that is possible today.
  • Prior to the introduction of runics, the best items could only be acquired by looting monsters.
