A shard is a running Ultima Online game world (a server instance). This shard runs on
ServUO server emulator :
the software that reimplements the UO server so a community can host its own world. So
“ServUO” throughout this wiki refers to that emulator’s source code (where the rules and
numbers are defined), not to the live server itself.
One shard, one set of rules — these are the numbers this shard is actually running with, read
directly from Config/*.cfg in the ServUO emulator’s configuration.
Setting Value Source Expansion EJ (Endless Journey) Config/Expansion.cfg (CurrentExpansion=EJ)Test Center mode Disabled Config/TestCenter.cfg (Enabled=False)
EJ is the most modern ruleset the ServUO emulator offers: AOS combat math, ML-era stat gain, SA races and
skills are all in effect. Where this wiki says “AOS-era” or “ML-era” behavior, it applies here.
