A living reference for how UO Oasis actually plays right now. For a history of what changed and when, see Patch Notes instead.
Build a full underground floor beneath any house, generated to match your house's exact footprint - small house, small cellar; sprawling custom home, equally sprawling cellar.
[MovingCrate command to drop it at your feet.Your bank box holds 375 items (up from the classic 125), with unlimited weight. Regular backpacks, chests, and other containers use their normal capacity.
A long-term leveling system layered on top of combat - the more you fight with a weapon type or with spells, the stronger that Grimoire makes you.
The Grimoire Master's menu - each category gets its own color:
[Hunts anytime to open your quest log and check progress on everything active.[Hunts log and click "Claim Reward" on any completed hunt.A 130+ item reward list spanning Gear & Equipment, Resources & Materials, and Cosmetics & Decoration. Gear rewards are priced off their actual stats rather than a flat rate, and every item shows a full hover tooltip before you commit. Quest Points can also be converted directly into Account Sovereigns toward the EA Ultima Store.
Two dungeons are spotlighted at all times - one re-rolled daily with a smaller gold bonus, one re-rolled weekly with a bigger one, plus better bonus-treasure odds for kills inside either. Check [BonusDungeons to see which two are active and how much time is left.
Placeable repair benches work exactly like the NPC blacksmith's service - 50 gold per point of durability restored, pulled from your gold or bank balance, no deeds or charges required. Use "Repair All" to fix your whole pack at once in a single all-or-nothing transaction.
Dragons, Greater Dragons, White Wyrms, Nightmares, Cu Sidhe, Hiryu, Lesser Hiryu, and Reptalons can spawn in one of four tiers:
Fully trainable through normal Animal Lore once tamed. Instant-bonding cost at the Animal Trainer scales with tier: 10,000gp Normal, 20,000gp Rare, 40,000gp Epic, 60,000gp Legendary.
The rare, gold-hued Paragon variant can spawn on Felucca, Ilshenar, Malas, Tokuno, and Ter Mur - anywhere you're playing, not limited to one facet. Buffed stats, gold hue, and bonus loot chance work as normal.
Riding an Ethereal mount costs 0 follower slots, leaving your full pet count free for creatures that actually fight alongside you.
Treasure maps drop from a wide range of dangerous creatures. Rates are tuned to feel like a genuine bonus rather than a guarantee - including on High Seas bosses (Leviathan, Charybdis, Osiredon, Corgul) and other tough dungeon spawns, all balanced to a consistent, fair rate rather than any single creature dominating the drop pool.
Every map shows its level right in its properties (hover over it) - no more guessing how hard one is before you commit to decoding it:
Double-click a map to decode it - your chance to succeed scales with your actual Cartography skill against that map's level, and you can gain Cartography from attempts whether they succeed or not. Higher-level maps genuinely need real skill investment to decode reliably; there's no way to shortcut a hard map with little to no Cartography.
A staff-run large-scale event that throws an entire Felucca town into chaos:
23 skills no longer count against your 720 total skill cap - raise as many as you like on top of your main template, each still capped individually (100, or higher with power scrolls):
Character names are enforced as unique shard-wide - new characters, name-change deeds, and name-change tokens can't take a name already in use.
Recall and Mark can be cast successfully by any character regardless of Magery skill - the skill-based fizzle chance for these two spells is removed. You still need reagents (or a Runebook/Arcane Gem charge), mana, and normal cast time; all other travel restrictions still apply.
Staying fed grants real regeneration bonuses. Type [hunger (or [buffs), or right-click your own character and choose Hunger Menu, to see your status.
[c or [chat to open the Global Chat window - movable and resizable, with a running scrollback of recent messages.[c or [chat directly followed by a message (e.g. [c hello everyone) to send instantly without opening the window first.[ChatToggle lets you fully opt in or out at any time.Razor and RazorEnhanced can run side by side. To enable RazorEnhanced, add it to your plugins list in settings.json alongside Razor:

Our shard's display name changed from the placeholder "My Shard" to "UO Oasis". ClassicUO saves your macros, hotbar, and window layout in a folder named after the server you connected to - so if you played here before this change, your setup is sitting in a folder called My Shard, and your client will now look in a folder called UO Oasis instead. Nothing was deleted, it's just parked under the old name.
To get your old setup back:
ClassicUO\Data\Profiles\<your account name>\ in your UO Oasis install folder.My Shard folder (your old data) and, if you've already logged in since the change, a newer, empty UO Oasis folder too.UO Oasis folder yet, just rename My Shard to UO Oasis - done.UO Oasis folder already exists, open both folders side by side and copy each character's macros.xml and gumps.xml from the My Shard version into the matching character folder under UO Oasis, overwriting the empty ones.Same idea as the general instructions below, just simpler since it's the same account either way - only the server-name folder itself changed.
Already playing elsewhere and don't want to rebuild your macros, hotbar, and gump layout from scratch? ClassicUO keeps that setup in a per-character profile folder, and you can copy it straight over:
ClassicUO\Data\Profiles\<your account name>\<server name>\<character name>\. On a default install this is under C:\Program Files (x86)\Ultima Online Oasis\.macros.xml - your hotbar and macrosgumps.xml - your window positions and layoutprofile.json too for the rest of your settings (target queue, filters, counters, and similar preferences) - just this one file, not the whole folder, so you don't overwrite anything UO Oasis-specific.Do this per character - each character has its own profile folder. If a step doesn't quite match what you see (folder names are case-sensitive and depend on exactly how your account/character names are stored), stop and ask on Discord rather than guessing - copying the wrong file can overwrite a layout you meant to keep.
A website login, separate from your in-game UO account, that manages your actual UO accounts and characters from your browser.
