This is an overview of purchasable player housing within EUO.

How to acquire a house

With Dollars

If there are houses available, then you can buy a lease with real life money, ie US dollars. See this forum topic: http://forums.swut.net/viewtopic.php?t=359

The administration reserves the right to recycle your house if you don't login for 3 months.

Prices on application. see http://forums.swut.net/viewtopic.php?p=2544#p2544

With Gold Coins

see http://forums.swut.net/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=4316

What are they good for

In you house you can drop anything and it is automatically locked down, so it won't decay and cannot be stolen. You can also terraform the floors: ie change the carpet, put in chairs, tables, etc.

Terraforming the house

Terraforming tile scrolls and placeable item scrolls are available from Ikea in Dryden for in-game money or adamantium coins. Press Shift-r to read the scroll and place it. Placing an tile via a scroll will replace the existing tile and create a tile for the replaced item in your inventory.

Containers (or mimics)

One of the placable scrolls is for a container, which when placed resembles a mimic. Items can be 'bought' or 'sold' into the container just like the player bank.

You can personalise the mimics name with the /merchname command.

Mimics are purchasable from your local scribe: look for the container scroll. Container scrolls can also be scribed by a player with a high enough Inscription skill.

Mimics can be moved with the /movecontainer command.

Where are they located

Most housing is located in the following towns:

  • Braemere
  • Kingswood
  • The Resort
  • Chester Hill
  • Marrickville
  • Dulwich

Although there are a few houses scattered throughout the other towns:

  • Broden's Keep
