Reagent
Reagents
In the real world, a reagent is something added to a system to cause a chemical reaction, or added to test if a reaction occurs.[1] In Ultima Online, a reagent operates in a similar manner. They are used by spellcasters to cast spells, by scribes to create spell scrolls, and by alchemists to create potions.
Reagents can be looted from various mobiles, found on the ground, or purchased from NPCs. By default, NPCs sell up to 20 of the reagents they carry, but if they sell out of a given reagent, the next time they refresh their inventory, the amount they have for sale will double. This can be repeated until they reach a maximum of 999 for sale at a single time.
Reagents can also be deeded with Commodity Deeds by players in amounts up to 60,000 per deed, or bought and sold by players' Magincia Vendors.

Reagents of Old
These reagents come from old systems that never went live, though the reagents made their way into the game. These were originally introduced into the Ultima series with Ultima VIII: Pagan and Ultima VII: The Serpent's Isle, which has led to their commonly being referred to as Pagan reagents. Most are no longer spawning.
Original Necromancy Reagents
These reagents were originally from Ultima VIII: Pagan. Note that these were intended for the original Necromancy skill in Ultima Online, and not the Necromancy skill which was actually implemented.
- Blackmoor
- Bone - Now used for Mysticism spells
- Dead Wood - 'Wood' in Pagan
- Executioner's Cap - 'Executioner's Hood' in Pagan
- Fertile Dirt - 'Dirt' in Pagan, now used in Gardening and for Mysticism spells
- Vial of Blood - 'Blood' in Pagan. Note that all 'Vial of Blood's had their name changed to 'Daemon Blood' when Age of Shadows was released.
Serpent Isle Magic
These reagents were originally from Ultima VII: The Serpent's Isle:[2]
- Bloodspawn - 'Blood Spawn' in Serpent's Isle
- Serpent's Scale - 'Serpent Scales' in Serpent's Isle, originally a Thaumaturgy reagent in Pagan
- Wyrm's Heart - 'Worm Heart' in Serpent's Isle

Other Rare Reagents
Newbiefied Reagents
In the past, new player equipment was 'newbiefieid' - i.e., it was blessed, though no 'blessed' tag was displayed. This included new player reagents. Note that stacking newbiefieid reagents with unblessed reagents will make a stack in which none are newbiefieid.
Blessed Pagan Reagents
These reagents were from the new Paladin quest, Uzeraan's Turmoil, which has been disabled since the release of Age of Shadows.
Glacial Reagents
These reagents were from an EM event on Chesapeake in 2013.
Rubble Reagents
These were all created during the destruction of Magincia. They all show the name 'Rubble'.
