Ankh necklace taking damage?!

Is this a bug? I mean, the thing provides absolutely no benefit. Why would it take damage?

 

In my experience if you think something is a bug, it is best to post it in the bug forum right away. That way you have a chance at getting a reply/getting the bug fixed. Sometimes a Dev will answer that the behavior is intended, in which case objections can be raised.

 

Clothes in UO used to take damage. I mean, everything provides some sort of benefit, or you wouldn't have it !

 

The ankh literally provides no benefit. It's a decorative necklace with no attributes at all.

 

not early on. THe clothes started taking damage once they provided armor benifits. Early on the clothes did nothing. I had newbie clothes that stayed with me when I died so I could res and put my clothes on after getting looted. I didn't like running around in my underpants.

 

Those newbie clothes lasted a long time, but I specifically remember mine dying due to durability.

 

I don't think anyone can tell just how much "skill" one has...

Necklaces in general can be crafted and buffed up with masterworks/enchantments, that's probably why the items on that slot now have durability and can be broken.

Ankh Necklace on the other hand is a pledge reward with no extra bonus, my understanding is that its durability loss will be addressed along with other pledge reward equipment.

 

Really? What year. Last I played was 2000.

 

He's cheating. He's got glases on. You can't hit a guy with glasses.

 

I don't know, 2001?

 

I would have thought the ankh necklace would be able to heal itself.

 

I'd also think it should be able to be used for an insta-res (daily/weekly) or a small HOT (heal over time) or a minor buff to health. But who are we to think such things?
