It sounds like you're referring to throwing weapons in Ultima Online (UO), the classic MMORPG. Throwing weapons are a unique combat skill that allows players to hurl items like daggers, axes, or spears at enemies from a distance. Here's a breakdown of how it works in UO: Throwing in Ultima Online: Key Details Skill Name: - The skill is called Throwing (or "Throwing Weapons" in some versions). - It falls under the Combat Skills category. Weapons Used: - Throwable Items: Daggers, throwing axes, spears, shurikens (ninja weapons), and sometimes boomerangs. - Some weapons (like daggers) can also be used in melee combat. How It Works: - Throwing attacks consume stamina (like archery). - Damage is influenced by Strength (STR), Throwing skill level, and weapon quality. - Some weapons (like poisoned daggers) can apply additional effects. Advantages: - Allows ranged attacks without needing arrows/bolts (unlike Archery). - Fast attack speed compared to bows/crossbows. - Works well with Ninjitsu (for shurikens) or Poisoning (for poisoned daggers). Disadvantages: - Limited range compared to Archery. - Some throwable weapons are heavy (e.g., throwing axes). - Fewer high-end options compared to Archery or Melee. Training Throwing: - Low Skill: Throw daggers at training dummies or weak monsters. - Mid/High Skill: Fight stronger enemies (like ogres, trolls, or in dungeons). - Some players use macros to automate throwing for skill gain. Notable UO Servers & Throwing Mechanics: - Official UO (EA/Broadsword): Throwing is viable but often overshadowed by Archery. - Free Shards (RunUO/ServUO-based): Some servers buff throwing weapons for balance. - Age of Shadows (AOS) & Later: Introduced special moves like "Infused Throw." Best Builds for Throwing in UO Pure Thrower: - Skills: Throwing 100, Tactics 100, Anatomy 100, Healing, Resist Spells. - Stats: High STR, decent DEX. Ninja Thrower: - Skills: Throwing 100, Ninjitsu 100, Hiding, Stealth. - Uses: Shurikens + Ninja abilities. Hybrid Thrower: - Skills: Throwing + Melee (Swords/Fencing) or Poisoning. Did You Mean Something Else? If you meant "throwing" as in quitting Ultima Online, let me know! Otherwise, hope this helps with your throwing weapon adventures in UO. Would you like tips on specific servers or PvP/PvM strategies for throwers?

The new raid content is fantastic with challenging mechanics. However, there are still some bugs that need to be ironed out. Overall a solid expansion that keeps me coming back for more.
