My Scheme for the Walkthrough[edit]

I'd like to sort out the walkthrough as follows:

  1. Getting started: create a character, get to Britain
  2. The Companions
    1. From the start and the mainland
    2. From the islands (skiff needed)
    3. From the overseas (frigate needed)
    4. From the mountains (grapple needed)
    5. From the quests
  3. The Shrines of Virtue (it's good to upgrade as swoon as possible)
  4. Side Quests and Items (level up while collecting these)
    1. His Majesty's Ship Plans
    2. Free reagents and three more spells
    3. The Skull Keys
    4. The Sextant
    5. The Spyglass
    6. The Glass Sword
  5. The Sceptre (also, the grapple and the carpet are needed)
  6. The Crown (also, the black badge is needed; meet Saduj and Gorn)
  7. The Dungeons and the Underworld
    1. Dungeon Despise (meet Johne)
    2. Dungeon Hythloth (the Mystic Arms and the first Shard)
    3. Dungeon Deceit (the second Shard)
    4. Dungeon Covetous & Wrong (the third Shard)
    5. Dungeon Destard (the Amulet)
    6. Dungeon Shame & Doom

Do what you think is best. I whipped this walkthrough together rather quickly to replace an absolutely terrible Ultima V Walkthrough which was here previously. Dungy 04:10, 11 May 2012 (PDT)

Lazarus portraits[edit]

Should we be using portraits from Lazarus in a walkthrough for the original U5? I understand the desire to spruce the page up, but the policy here has typically been to keep official and fan-made material as separate as possible. I think I'd rather see in-game screenshots from U5 like in the character articles. --Terilem 14:28, 17 May 2012 (PDT)

I agree. They are gorgeous but I'm afraid they don't really belong here. We'll just have to make a Lazarus walkthrough. :) -- Fenyx4 17:58, 17 May 2012 (PDT)
Thirded. Why are they all female anyway? ;) --Warder Dragon 00:56, 18 May 2012 (PDT)
"Lazarus Part II : The Land Without Men! Blackthorn may have been defeated but before being banished he released a plague that killed all the men in Britannia. How will the Avatar and Lord British repopulate Britannia? Dun Dun Dun!" (Produced by Al Lowe) -- Fenyx4 05:34, 18 May 2012 (PDT)
They're all female because I like girls. But they can be removed, I've got a life, after all ;-) --Abacos 06:43, 18 May 2012 (PDT)
Well, let's put all the portraits in a Lazarus walkthrough. But I'm not going to get Dungeon Siege: three-dimensional videogames are not for me, I'm an old dog :-) --Abacos 10:09, 18 May 2012 (PDT)

Old Walkthrough[edit]

What to do with the old Walkthrough? It's a bit double. Deleting it perhaps? --Arthgon 04:20, 14 December 2012 (PST)

NES Version[edit]

As you may know there are several differences between the computer and the NES version of Ultima V. Shall I conclude this version with this Walkthrough (like what I did now) or is it much better to have one for the NES as well? --Arthgon 04:29, 14 December 2012 (PST)

What happened here?[edit]

Haven't been on the wiki much lately, but it seems this walkthrough has seen better days. What should we do here? Dungy 19:37, 6 January 2013 (PST)

I have brought in more details and removed the old walkthrough at the bottom. --Arthgon 12:00, 7 January 2013 (PST)
Seems only two sections are left to be added. I know how difficult that is to write, I did write several walkthroughs after all.--Tribun 12:02, 7 January 2013 (PST)
OK, great. I was just making sure this walkthrough hadn't been abandoned half way through. I had written the previous walkthrough over an even worse one, so I didn't want anything left in a half-finished state. Dungy 12:24, 7 January 2013 (PST)
