Everyone knows the reward going into it. A random tome or wand or whatever this isn’t bad management. It’s a seriously way out of hand entitlement issue from some of their player base. Should they make sure they don’t give you the same tome you already received on an alt? Or it would be fine if you kept getting popular tomes so you could sell the charges? you get a random item for “winning” by completing a random set of arbitrary goals at this point it couldn’t be MORE obvious what happens for winning so if you don’t like the reward don’t bother. If you think it’s a balance issue in pvp just ask they all be removed. That seemed semi popular among them. This thread SCREAMS I need more money for this stupid item I don’t want. Its completely ridiculous, and to top it off some of you have an attitude like the Dev’s are the incompetent ones who put you in this situation!

Let us wax our food like when they put food on display in markets. Add another purpose for bee's wax.

With the new addition of books and a new journal for archaeology, I feel like this open up a whole new world of fun for wurmians to explore and catalog findings, including those not related to archaeology (archaeology journal) or botany (almanac). The starting point of this suggestion is that books should not decay when placed into a bookshelf. If more books are to be added and used, there should be a safe place to store them. Suggestions to come if we can safely collect our books into a library: A Bestiary - a comprehensive collection of information about animals in wurm, ranging from the small wild cat to the massive forest giant. Knowledge may be gathered by examining an animal with the bestiary (with an empty page in it) activated while it is alive, going based off of animal husbandry (or taming?) skill. It can reveal various interesting facts anywhere from it's preferred spawn range, diet, and other interesting behaviours like the love of chasing innocent newbies around. A second round of information can be taken of the corpse of the animal, with the amount of information based off of fighting skill. This could include it's rough fighting abilities, butchered products, etc. Would be super happy if this bestiary can include pictures like the almanac has. An Atlas - simple as is, add notes to your ingame map and use a filled pen to make a copy of the map with said notes onto a piece of paper to share with others, or to keep multiple interesting maps bound in books together. Fish Physiology - a collection of information recorded from the catches made while fishing. Same as with archaeology, when you catch a fish and have an empty report, it will try to add information to it. Based on fishing skill, this will give a description of your catch, including the maximum caught weight, minimum caught weight, and server of catch. This could tie in nicely with some simple renaming to make certain new fishes only found on certain servers; salmon in the north on independence, to lionfish down south on celebration. If possible, have these behave like the archaeology reports to help find back certain special fish tiles. I see lots more room for report books like this, but these were sitting in the top of my head today.

By the way, as to tome balance, I keep hearing from certain parties that 5% DR is negligible. If that's actually true, then two very simple solutions present themselves: 1) On all tomes, set the resistance boost to 5% and remove the resistance penalty. The Red Cherry would no longer hurt physical resistance, while providing 5% poison resistance. A nice little bonus, and without a penalty, why not use it? The 5% physical resistance nerf to Smoke from Sol (from 10% to 5%) would be negligible (as we all keep hearing), and when all tomes are used, the end result would remain exactly the same: 5% resistance across the board. 2) Remove resistances completely, bonuses and negatives. After all, a 5% boost across the board is meaningless (or so we hear). Tomes can just be about spells, which should make them easier to balance. Maybe we could even have the Red Cherry spell be an actual -counter- to the Smoke from Sol spell, and vice versa (since we keep hearing about all this perfect balance and countering amongst tomes)! The bottom line again, of course, is that without any penalties, why not use a Red Cherry or White Tome? A spell is a spell! Gotta like that.

There is always going to be something at the bottom of the list, always, change the red cherry then folks start bitching about the walnut, it will never please everyone.

It's harder to get this object random, so I wrote very rare. I'm not saying very rare as valuable Anyway thanks to everybody who has replied I think some freedomer will be happy to have his own island. I'm selling it, I accept offers via pm.

@McGarnicleAny plans for you guys to return? Miss those videos!

I mean, is expecting 300+ euro for repairing a bunch of fences and getting an alt to 90 skill on epic good for the game? If you farm your alts and get good tomes, good on ya doesn't effect anyone else nobody hears of it because you're happy. If you farm your alts, get bad tomes, then complain on the forums and expect them to change it just because you can't sell it? Sorry I really couldn't care less. Maybe if the post was for removing red white cherries wand of seas huge egg all that stuff before they won it it would have gotten a better audience, but the post just screams "I didn't get paid as much as i thought i would".

I posted some pictures showing off the wands used on elevation in the last auction if anyone wants an idea of what it makes. The rock layer is about where the lava is, and they can be used on freedom far from other deeds/the border. (Repost) For those interested but don't know what you can do with these here is a couple pictures I took of the wand we used on elevation to give you an idea of the scale of it if it has not changed since we used it about a year ago. An overview of the 2 dropped on current(The volcano looking things) from the last map dump, 1 from JK(North and the one in the pics above) and 1 from MR(South no pics sorry) This was before the wands on the fresh map dump

You've been on the road for the past 2 hours; it's getting late, you want to log off for the night, but there is nowhere in sight. Sound familiar? Well, wander no more, for this thread is intended to be an exhaustive list of Xanadu Inns, listing those both active, inactive and, in some cases, historical. Do you own an inn? Want it on the list? Just post below, or PM me! Found an inn on your travels that really caught your eye? PM me with the details and I'll add it to the list! Below is blank form you can fill out to make it easier for me to keep this up to date - if you want to add extra information I would put it under "other" Name: Map Ref: Nearest Settlement: Owner: Facilities: Other: Classification: Inn Listings <Thread Notes> : This thread is in its infancy, I'll refine the post over time to make it look a little more professional, if there is interest in it. This is just a placeholder

WOM Converter Tool for exporting models to WOM WOM Converter is a tool allowing conversion of Assimp-compatible formats (list here) to WOM. It was tested with dae (Collada) models and fbx, but should work with most or all listed formats as well. Benefits of WOM format are smaller file size and much faster loading. In addition, it's the only model format currently supported by DeedPlanner. Main target of this tool are Wurm Unlimited modders who can convert models to most optimal form now, but binaries are published for everyone interested to use. Running program in command line without parameters will display help. WOM Converter repository https://github.com/codeclubab/WOM-Converter WOM Converter releases https://github.com/codeclubab/WOM-Converter/releases Currently the program features: Command line interface Ability to convert Assimp-compatible formats to WOM Dev mode toggle-able with -devfilechooser parameter, allowing to quickly test the program by selecting a file with file chooser As of now converter works correctly for static models without animations, support for all models will be added soon. In addition, GUI version of the program and support of converting WOM models back to Collada/other Assimp-compatible formats is also planned.

To triple post (unless someone hops in), I see no reason why the Winner award -has- to be a tome. Personally, I'd rather see something like a randomly-rolled fantastic item (weapon/tool/armor/etc.)...

Being inflammatory again I see, why is it so hard for you to have an actual conversation/debate on the forums?

wew lad, you are stretching quite a bit there. 1QL leather and path of knowledge is comparable to a 5% weakness that can be mitigated by the other tome? Lmao

Thanks, I've tracked down why this is happening and fixed it for next patch.

yeah the real problem is calling it "winning the game" when its really just "completed repairing some walls making some wine and did some other trivial tasks"

What enrico said, but add in old female black light models. Honestly though, it is permanence. No other game has it, no other game I have ever played can you as a single individual mean so much, do so much, and change the world around you. Other games are so static, based on a single server, match, or uninteresting world. They follow a story driven path, or are "reset every week". I have weapons in Wurm that were made in 2011, that to me is staggering. Some of the most popular MMO's I have played like world of warcraft, provide nothing in context of freedom, it is so controlled and sterile. Eve Online is close to Wurm but it has some advanced boredom for me, because at the end of the day when I played it, I was thriving being a market trader and that is literally a spreadsheet simulator. Imagine it though, go outside your deed right now. Pack a tile, and place a road. That road tile is there, in the world. People can walk on it, dig it up, use it as a landmark, that tile is in existence. When you log off that tile is still there, when you quit that tile is still there (unless it decayed). Then take that idea, apply it to a Tower, a Colossus, a Kingdom. Then you understand.

Curious does the lava keep going building up the height over time, or does it peter out after a certain period? Out of all the rewards for winning, I personally think this one is the most fun.

Hmm, nah cheers though

True. You bring up a good point about tomes: once used, they can't be stolen. Tomes are at least theoretically meant to be permanent account improvements, and removing tomes would destroy that mechanic, which I think should be acknowledged in any such discussion. (And for the record, I like the idea of permanent account improvements.) At any rate, what about no-drop fantastic items for Winners?

If you got a fantastic sword , armour, even scaleset, it would not be the worth of a tome (and i dont mean money worth , i mean actual worth) simply because the tome never goes away. PVP with that shiny sword a bunch of times and you'll eventually lose it

Would be fine with me also i think. Also agree with your post for balancing them. I'm all for a rebalance, or hell a removal (please dont take my necromancer title though! lol). But I dont at all agree that the red cherry needs to be buffed, or that its unfair some get the cherry or other less desirable prizes VS some more desirable ones. Everyone knows what you might get before going into it. Everyone has the same chances to get them (even if by spamming alts until you get an easy set of goals or whatever like rumors of some are doing).

Your attitude that gamers shouldn't have expectations of rewards is completely ridiculous, when most Winners -are- going to get something nice. Blaming the few who get trash for then being upset disgusts me so much that again, I find myself running into the forum policy barrier. Giving most Winners something nice, and a few trash, is both bad business and developer incompetence, and yes, they -did- put the gamers in that situation. The irony is that it's utterly needless. If you're going to piss off customers, at least have a good reason for it.

You're probably right, I dont know you, but this whole thread is ripe with that kind of smell. Sorry if i've offended you, but if you're not in favor of re-balancing or removing all the tomes, you're not for actual balance and just out to improve your share of this item you have deemed useless which is no different than trying to sell them for profit.. I'll stand behind that opinion and plant it on anyone else crying the same as you. ?‍♂️ Do you think it was unfair your friend had a 6% disadvantage for not being full SOTG that you mentioned earlier? or is it completely fair since he had the same means to get to where they were? Because that applies to tomes too...

Anyone can say anything they want unless against forum or chat rules.

Just verified that, at least in Wurm Unlimited, pruning a tree has a difficulty of (skill - 10). Let's say you're using a 90QL tool at 20 skill and 80 skill. A difficulty 10 action with a 90QL tool and 20 skill is definitely going to have better success rates than a difficulty 70 action with 80 skill and a 90QL tool.

[2018-06-12] [17:56:04] You make a lot of errors and need to take a break. [2018-06-12] [17:56:10] You make a lot of errors and need to take a break.

That's a fairly common occurrence for me, it's stupid.

I'd feel like you AND your enemy were only able to use 1 charge each on your main toon.. and sell the rest.. so we're back to being upset about not profiting enough off your "win". Id feel like they hit a better RNG lottery than me which IS wurm... because almost everything is RNG in this game. I wouldn't complain if they got lucky and made a few fantastic weapons they were gonna be whacking at me with.. i doubt you would either.. but who knows after seeing this thread there might be a whole group of people crying about that too. Open a post for removal or a rework on all tomes and you'll probably have my support. . . or keep trying to win and hope the RNG favors you next time Complain about the tome you keep getting isn't good enough to resell or make you beat them is never gonna get any sympathy..

5%.. or 6% is still only 5 or 6 hundredths of a total. Unless you’re tit for tat on hits and dmg it isn’t that big of a difference. 0 VS 30% would be a well recognizable difference.. but 5 or 6 is much less so. But.. even if it is huge and “character breaking”. Just don’t use it. Problem solved. There are like 20 different tomes. If they change the red cherry they should update the plank as a viable weapon because I choose to use it and want to be competitive.

Is a 5% weakness that game breaking in PVP? thats .5 extra damage per 10 points. You’re gonna die in 1 hit then someone landed a 96 point shot on you in the first place and aren’t you dead then anyway really? Lol

To anyone that thinks that red cherry is a good thing for the game as it is right now, Why don't you PVP in leather? Why dont you use 1 QL leather just to be sure that you're gonna die in one hit, and on top of that go path of knowledge so that you dont lose your precious useless skills cause your character's already bricked out of existance. Honestly if i got that out of my personal goals id do the same exact thing, complain about it on the forums, but Damn, if i got it twice in a row? id quit the game.

Contact Rollypolly - he always seems to have a few.

No I am not okay with them getting junk, I want people to get nothing at all.

I like a lot of the unique ideas presented already, but I also like the simplicity of the "basic/renowned/master" method for things like weapon skills and tools, and I feel like some of the best titles given already are really level 100 candidates. I do think the stats/stances should be unique. Apologies if I duplicate anyone's ideas: I'm not sure why soul depth and soul strength weren't on the list (although I see soul depth has a 50 title), but I'll add them too: Soul Depth: Aware - Enlarged - Infinite Soul Strength: Brave - Valiant - Indomitable

Terraforming, pvp, and close knit community are what stood out to me.

I crossed from Deli onto Independence to gain my Mountain goat achievement if that's what you mean, yes. Also in the second case I sailed from Independence to Celebration where I did my 1250 fence repair goal. Same as the above.

COD: Proseedda hammer, 71 ql, 80 coc, 80 c pelt, mountain lion, 83 ql, 68 coc, 25 c whetstone, 85 ql, 64 coc, 25 c Thank you in advance

+1 but means they need to over haul animals and fishing which is needed. Maybe that would make taming very useful and use books for animal (pet) skills.

(So, nearly another year has gone by, and it has been slow going. Although the pictures may not seem like it, a lot of progress has been made on the deed. The beach has FINALLY been completed, along with the edges of the deed slope. The only area that needs to be completed now is the area by the mountain for our main house. For those of you who remember our old home, it will look the same, with some major additions around and behind it. The whole thing will overlook the rest of the deed for an amazing view. Our Cats have their own "Cat Houses" Our new Beach, complete with pet whale! The altars still show where the old temple used to stand. The nice, sloping south hillside, and the former location of my mine.... A different view of the beach. Hopefully, our next update will have the finished model of our home, workshops, and warehouse. Thanks for your time and enjoy the pics.

Back 15 years ago or whenever the game was being made, they didn't think "oh, i wonder how it'll interact with someone that's 90+ woodcutting, and has a rare runed imbued hatchet", but that's probably to do with the fact that rare, runed and imbued did not exist back then and the thought of someone getting 100 woodcutting for 100ql trees probably seemed asinine. For chopping 100ql logs, it's possible, extremely rare due to how the game handles it. You'd have to hit exactly 100ql on the log and not go over, otherwise it'd reroll. Moving the rune/rare/imbue bonus to chopping up instead of felling trees would let you cut 100ql logs and would boost the average ql of logs by a lot when at high skill with said tools (i get like average 65-70ql logs if i dump them all into a crate, depsite all of my trees being 100ql)

Niki, please stop acting like you are personally being victimized in this thread as if people -1ing it have a personal vendetta against you. People can disagree with you, people disagree with me all the time and I do not think its because of my affiliations. When you look at the red cherry from a completely subjective point of view as I do, I recognize that the cherry in general is trash if used alone. But a 15% poison reduction for a 5% physical increase is really not game breakingly broken. Especially when it can be counter acted with the smoke, and additional DR through SotG. It used to be insanely broken and was fixed by reducing the debuff to 5% over the what I remember 10%. I get your point as well Xallo, it is really unfortunate, and the only thing I would suggest is maybe a function similar to the meditation "change paths" option, where you can straight up opt out of your charge. I am not going to give this a -1 or a +1 because the end result is unlikely to effect me or my gameplay other than make my enemies stronger, and I do not feel a change is entirely necessary. I still want all tomes off Epic, because it is a feature for Freedom/Chaos now.

It is just dumb how you are complaining about the tome, it is balanced in give or take like all the other tombs. Just because you didn't get one worth 6g or some crazy amount is no reason to complain. Suck it up, if you really feel that put out, win the game again on your alt.

To those who are not a fan of the highest end titles, keep in mind the 90 titles should be something people want, not just another generic title no one cares about. People should want to grind to get it. "The" titles are nice, we really do not have a lot of them.

When I used the Red Cherry, I wasn't aware of the crappy de-buffs because there was no documentation on Sorcery yet. So, I would like to see a way to disable them (requiring Karma), seeing as it permanently does something negative to your account that you have no control over once you've used the item.

I"m disappointed with the anniversary gift giving mechanic. I don't think it's a good idea to force players to use a specific skill if they'd like a gift. You know I have never once use restoration or archeology.

+1 for 2 people in canopy bed Regular one should stay 1 person in my opinion, at least if you want to get sleep bonus ; ) Also rarity could increase sleep bonus gain: - 5% rare - 10% supreme - 15% fantastic
