Introduction

In March 2022, UOForever launched a new shard called Overdrive. Overdrive is a copy of UOForever but with a fresh and exciting combat style. So, all the amazing content and updates from UOForever is synced with Overdrive.

Overdrive is built with the intention of satisfying both casual and hardcore players. We have options to quickly get started and right hop into action as well as reward players who invest time into their character and exploration.

Overdrive's combat style is known for being able to move while casting spells so it is primarily Magery focused combat with melee being a supplemental tool. You can think of Overdrive just like other rulesets people master like being great at T2A 5x, or 7x. It is a style that is all about using line of sight properly and mastering spell timings.
