Potions and shields
As in classic UO, drinking a potion needs a free hand, and a weapon plus a shield leaves none. Assistants like Razor can take off the shield, drink and put it back on with one key.
The server ignores actions sent less than 500 ms apart. If your assistant swaps too fast, the potion is never drunk. Set its object delay to about 550 ms.
