Just came back to UO a week ago and started hunting in old dungeons and learned about this item drop was wondering does the Ankh Pendant actually do something or is it just for looks or part of the suit?

From Uo.com

"What does the ankh necklace do? Is it just for show?"
As a number of alert players have pointed our, should you visit one of the Shrines of the Virtues and meditate (chant a mantra) there, you will receive a system message having to do with that virtue. But what does it mean?

The ankh will give a bonus to one or more of the 3 regeneration stats that will last for 1 hour. The bonus can only be activated once per day. Each of the shrines will give a unique bonus combination to regeneration stats based on the virtue for that particular shrine (this is based on the 3 principles).

Each principle is related to a regeneration stat as follows:
Truth - Mana Regeneration
Love - Hit Point Regeneration
Courage - Stamina Regeneration

Each virtue will give the following bonus to regeneration stats as follows:
Honesty +2 Mana Regen
Compassion +2 HP Regen
Valor +2 Stamina Regen
Justice +1 Mana Regen, +1 HP Regen (50% chance to get one regen bumped up to +2)
Sacrifice +1 HP Regen, +1 Stamina Regen (50% chance to get one regen bumped up to +2)
Honor +1 Mana Regen, +1 Stamina Regen (50% chance to get one regen bumped up to +2)
Spirituality +1 All Regens (25% chance (3 independent rolls) to get each regen bumped up to +2)
Humility +3 Random Regen

Samon, thanks for the link.

According to your link, Samon, it says that the opposed dungeon to Humility is Doom.

Is that true? That we can be hunting there for the drops?

The opposing dungeon to Humility is The Abyss.

That page is technically incorrect since Doom and The Abyss are two different entities.

So you cannot get the artifacts in Doom unfortunately.

If you hunt in the anti-virtue dungeons, at a slower rate than the Tokuno minors, you get a chance to get a few interesting things. Shields have good resists, the three weapons are not bad, the UO Statue is good to buff your luck.

the ankh.. I tested at spirituality, but if you have to wear it to get the buffs, it is a waste of time unless you are fighting non spell casters.

there is the map which looks nice.

And you can complete your Virture Armor set.

You have to constantly wear the ankh to get the buff??!?!? Damnit, there goes the extra 2-3 hp regen on top of what I already had.

You should definitely wear the UO statuette around your neck on a heavy gold chain. It is it's own armor slot. We pity the fool who doesn't.
