When the floods came, mercy drowned with the cities. Those cast out were left to wander the broken lands, scavenging for food and shelter wherever they could.
Play UO Tides of Power for free and join others in rebuilding Britannia after a catastrophic flood.

Extra pillows, a bottle of something to drink, a whip, a mask and a queen sized bed. Sounds like a fun night...

We let our players earn large pumpkins in the Halloween event this year.
UO players love to take existing items and place/stack them in ways to create visual masterpieces. Some people build pianos, some build aquariums, and some build...uh well...something phallic!

After the flood, the ocean became a dangerous and beacons of light were setup to guard the seas...until the player pirates showed up and killed them all.

After half a year of rebuilding farms, reclaiming trade routes, and restoring order, it’s time for the people of Britannia to relax ..by entering a dangerous cave filled with spiders, in hopes to get silk to create the best damn Halloween costume ever.

When the flood hit, no where was safe. Towns were wiped from existence and dungeons across the lands had their entrances flooded.

DND players learned long ago, never trust a DM with a smile.
Well, these UO players couldn't see my smile or hear my laughter as I watched them try, time after time, to escape from the dungeon. We all had fun playing Dungeon RUN!

After the flood, a wealthy noble learned the hard way that money can’t buy you everything. When the flood hit and resources were scarce, his peasants hung him at the gallows on his manor.

Did you ever want to see what a house or ship in would look like in the ethereal mount hue?
I'm not sure if I love this, or hate it. What do you think?

Anyone remember when OSI buffed fencing?
The game creators felt the need to re-balance combat skills. Fencing was given the ability to temporarily paralyze your opponents after being hit.
The result? A barrage of fencers killing everyone & anything under the sun.

A little secret from UO. When you cast an energy vortex, there was a chance it would be a purple llama instead of a purple vortex.
We included a similar feature, except it's a purple mongbat... because we really love mongbats around here!

Working on a new feature for our #UO shard, Tides of Power. Collectable dyes that randomly drop on monsters and found in dungeon chests.
Players can collect and trade them, and use a special tub to store them, and to spend charges by dying items in-game.
