Full Jackal on display from Blackbird Port on Independence

Small suggestion for skin chest: make some items inside, like in normal chest, couse now it's totally empty, after opening the top. For example, it it's standing on the carpet, you see this carpet inside wich looks rather bad.

For april fools I drew myself

Far right looks oleander, I assume the red next to it is raspberry (got a raspberry boat, it looks very similar). Edit: although, it doesn't have the greenish.. so maybe not oleander...

Absolutely fantastic update! This chest skin is SO PRETTY!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You guys tweeted the different looks, which I guess are based on the type of wood the chest is made of? Retro could you let us know which wood types are which in this picture so we can make the right choice for the color we want?

-1 for the people that might not understand how pvp works let me try to break it down for you the reason a captains stamina drains is to create an exploitable weakness in chasing an enemy boat, if you don't mitigate it, you're going to lose they added a combat cooldown to eating and in my opinion that should extend to archery proccing the effect as well, so you can't just "cheese it with sandwiches" but you can still drop the sails for stamina regain, ask for a refresh etc. everyone will agree to just remove the current sailing mechanics because they're pure ass, but removing the stamina drain is dumb and is meant to benefit dumb groups of players who can't micromanage their gameplay sorry, some people are going to be better than others, not sorry

I'll buy the "Rock Shards c94 w86 (78c)". Send to Chromega.

Sometimes you have to encourage them.....

Catching Spring Fever and decided to decorate my newly built bridge with flowerpots ❤️

Here we are again, and its almost that time of the year again for the annual Summer Friend-A-Long! This event is brought to you by Dragon Beard Markets, the Academy Network Alliance of Pristine, and random donors like you out there! This years Event will be held July 24th to the 29th. DUE TO STEAM LAUNCH I AM ADJUSTING THE DATE FORWARD A WEEK, THE NEW DATE WILL BE July 17th - 22nd. Hopefully this window will allow most folks the chance to attend and join in and the foolery of it all. Some of you may be asking what is an Imp-along? Well basically is a community event where everyone gets together to imp and cast for each other for free! Anyone can come, anyone can help imp. Often people just come to grind there skill for free. You don't have to be able to get to 70q imps, just do what you can and someone else will finish up the work! The only real restrictions is on channeling skill to help prevent shattered items. Made some changes to the deed based on feedback. Build a whole new arena that is designed around accommodating val and jackal mobs. I build a new tower for "Wurmian Lawn Darts" this year now that I know people have no problems flinging themselves to there likely death for prizes. We have collected a massive amount of materials, cotton, body bags, booze and prizes. I hope to see you all at turn up for the fun and games this year! Were going to commemorate the new arena with something special this year.... As I always say, If you didn't die at the imp-along you did it wrong! Please keep and eye on this thread as i will be updating it regularly with details of events, changes, whatever.... Event is ended for this year! When: DUE TO STEAM LAUNCH I AM ADJUSTING THE DATE FORWARD A WEEK, THE NEW DATE WILL BE July 17th - 22nd. Where: Pristine, T16, Friendship Bay deed. Map: https://prnt.sc/jdif1w - In game Map location. Map: http://prntscr.com/svwrts - Terrain View You can also plot to Dragon Beard from any highway, then just follow the highway a few hundred tiles to the deed. Imping Materials: All materials provided will be stocked in the resource carts/wagons next to each station, the general public will not have access to the bulk of materials, please try to NOT COMBINE tiny lumps like silver, gold, electrum, and the like for imping larger items like weapons and shields. Material usage will be alot higher, and we will get alot less imps out of the total stock of that material, less used is more for everyone! If you need a refill on something please ask in local or a "Wurm Lord" for refill. This year we will be providing some higher then 70q Materials during the last few days as sort of a reward for those people who stuck around and the work flow slows down a bit more. Expect to see up to 90q Logs, Iron, and maybe leather available for further imps towards the end of the event. Getting YOUR items imped, casted or bloods mixed: So these events work because people enjoy helping each other out, but a very important catch to that is that they do not want to feel abused or taken advantage of! Thoe it may seem like things are hard to track that would be a mistake to assume. The veteran impers and caster keep a close eye on who is dropping what and taking advantage of peoples generosity. Every event I end up taking peoples items for taking advantage of others (after a fair warning, if its not obvious abuse). The veterans who help out and imp/cast at these things will not hesitate to PM me if they think there being taken advantage of and I totally encourage this. As soon as they feel taken advantage of these things are dead! NAME YOUR ITEMS WITH YOUR COMPLETE CHARACTER NAME! Nothing else is needed, just make sure you move it to the correct locations as work progresses. ANY items that are not properly named will be secured and probably forfeit since identification is difficult. Creators tag will NOT be relied on. To be clear this means bring your existing gear, not create 1 of everything for every alt and bring it for free work. LIMITATIONS: A couple of weapons, a set of horse shoes, a couple of hammers, 1 of most other items. Do not create your items on site, particularly with the higher q imping mats. The only times items should be created is to replace shattered ones. So be sure you bring everything! If you have some unique bloods you would like mixed or applied feel free to bring them as well, please keep it to 10 or less, that should be enough to completely imbue a single tool, If you would like to provide the salt then we can do more mixes. Common Mistakes: As mentioned before be sure ALL your items are correctly named with your character. Find the station relevant to the skill required for your equipment. For example Hammers in Blacksmithing, Swords in Weapon smithing etc. Most are pretty obvious. Some of the most commonly misplaced items are: Carving Knife, Sickle, and Scythe witch are actually Weapon smithing. (Cooking) Knife and Leather Knife are actually Blacksmithing. New fishing rods are Fine carpentry, and the legacy rods are Carpentry. Fishing Reels are Jewelry Smithing, with the exception of the deep water reel witch is Blacksmithing. Secured/Overflow Item Recovery: *NEW* If one of your items has been moved to overflow please ask a "Wurm Lord" to retrieve it for you. Be sure to tell the the precise name of the shelf its on so they can find it quickly! For example "Casting Overflow SW3" will tell them what floor, what corner and what shelf your item is on. To avoid having your items secured try and make sure your checking on them and moving them as needed so that other peoples work can be processed. Be patient if you need something returned, everyone is a volunteer, and there may not always be someone around to retrieve your item. Any items left over anywhere that are properly named will be mailed back to there owner shortly after the close of the event. Deed Settings: *NEW* Drop AND Take are enabled on deed outside of buildings again this year for the purposes of butchering and looting during arena events. Please keep this in mind and do not leave your possessions outside un-attended, if you move more then a few tiles away your items could be taken by anyone. Treat is as in the wild! If Trash becomes a problem I may reconsider this policy and disallow looting. Deed Bonus's: *NEW* If your a visitor of the server and want to take advantage of a maxed out enchanting and rarity window bonus you can join the village, this is also a good option of you forgot to bring a tent! If you would like to join just PM VirusMD to get an invite What is expected of you as a patron: Be polite and be respectful! Don't forget to put your characters NAME ON ALL YOUR ITEMS! Cant stress this enough. Anything not properly named is likely to be lost or stuffed in an overflow bin, and once moved with no name, there is basically no way to identify it as yours. Please try and remove your items promptly once imped/casted to avoid having your items secured in overflow. You do NOT need to label them with what cast/imp you want, just your name. Just make sure you place them in the correct container. Do NOT abuse people's generosity! Don't bring 10 or even 5 of the same item for imping/casting. The only real exception to this might be horse shoes. Anyone caught taking advantage will forfeit there items and be asked to leave. And the veteran impers do know what to look for, i removed almost 100 items last year due to abuse, and it was veterans who tipped me off. Do NOT sell items that were done for you at the impalong. Its about helping people out, not taking advantage of someone else's work to put coin in your pocket. Getting items casted is at your own risk! Thoe the priest will be required to have at least 70 channeling and demonstrate so with there 70+ title. Shatters can and will happen at an event like this. Item quality plays a big in this so if your going to get something casted, consider imping it first. If an item is shattered, and its reproducible on site, feel free to ask someone with skill to re craft it for you. You should not need to pick any items up that are not your (nor will you be able to inside a building) If your items are moved to overflow please contact a "Wurm Lord" Items are only returned to the character named on it! Also feel free to help imp items even if you don't have that skill to 70. The only real restriction is channeling. Everyone is welcome to help out! Consider this an opportunity to grind your skills and no expense to you other then time. Mats and favor are provided so go crazy imp or cast all the things! When you complete and imp or cast please call it out in local to the owner something like "/me VirusMD your pickaxe imp is done!" This should help keep things flowing particularly for items waiting to receive multiple casts. Please check on your items frequently when possible to avoid having them moved into overflow storage. What is expected as an Imper or Caster at the Friend-A-Long: Please do NOT improve items that are not correctly labeled! Instead report them to an admin to be secured. This is considered abuse since we cannot tell whos item is being imped. All of the above + PLEASE name your lumps/materials if you have to put them back in the forge etc 70+ in your imping skills of choice is recommended but feel free to chip in with whatever skills you have for imping. The final 2 days or so there will be higher q mats available for higher q imps, assuming the workflow is going smoothly. 70+ Channeling skill is required to be permitted to cast on other people's items. You should be sure to wear your 70+ channeling title Sermons: Sermons are volunteer led, if you wish to participate in the sermon group please ask for a sermon team invite in local, and get further information for slotting inside that channel. Friendship Inn and Lounge: Need a place to sleep off a hard days work? Hide from a GM (good luck), or just get out of the way? The Friendship inn and Lounge, has a pleasant little relaxation area on the room with a wide variety of booze for you discerning wurmian hooligans. The inn is capable of bedding 80 characters in 70 secure rooms with storage options. If you need a secure room for your stay please make a post requesting a room, be sure to include your character(s) names in the post. There is also a large piece of land set aside for "Tent City" Just outside the inn on the sandy beach area next to the docking (parking) slips on the East end of the event location. The Deed: The imping hall itself it a 5 floor (3 double floors) pottery building with slate/marble decor. Broken into 3 floors dedicated to various tasks. The First floor is the now the casting/sermon area, I've broken all the spells into 4 main groups, based on the spell/priests that cast it. each group has at least 2-4 dedicated altars PER priest for that category, the more common priest like Vynora/Fo. So no worries about tripping over each other at the altar! All organized into corners, In the center of it all is another ring of altars, surrounding a rare altar for the sermon goers, and the building is designed in such a way, that everyone below you should be counted as listeners for HUGE faith ticks!in the corners you will find some relaxing area's to afk/get out of the way in along with stairwells to the other floors. The second floor is for Non smithing related imps, broken into 4 main area's depending on the skill used. The 3rd is now the forge area based on feedback from previous years. Mainly smoke in the face of folks working on the second floor, the forge area is 24x forges nestled together in a large group in the center At this time we have about 1.1 Million Favor worth of veggies ready to go! Want to help chop? no? good! we don't need you!, because@ChampagneDragonis amazing and did nearly ALL the chopping, with some support from Ladygodiva! Apparently she likes doing this, so yah, amazing! Champagnedragon also does it for your precious silvers, so if you need stuff veggies, need them chopped chopped or just want some cordage, look no further then her! Great attitude, very fast, great rates. And a special thanks to the group of dedicated farmers to help with the job of growing 200k veggies.... Then 200k more when they nerfed them.... Ouch! Thanks to Almostsolitude, Morde, Dragonshearts, Ladygodiva, and prob some more I forgot about for tending the absurdly large 5 field 2600 tiles of farmland we were tending. Ship Imps: If your getting your ship improve PLEASE enable passenger for "Everyone" to help out the impers and prevent accidental drownings. The WEST end of the deed is where docks are located for people who would like there ships imped as well. Please do not park here if your ship is over 70q. Please move your ship once it has been imped help keep congestion down in the area for the impers. Ship Parking: The EAST end of the deed houses several new docking teirs that will house many ships, if your ship does not need to be impled please be sure to park on the EAST side of the deed, where "Tent City" is located just East of the Friendship Inn and Lounge. Blood Mixing: We have a large supply of source salt for potion making, so feel free to bring your bloods for mixing. Hopefully well get a couple high skill volunteers who can do them for us! Got a nice NS and Alchemy? drop me a line here or PM me if your willing to help out with mixes and imbues. Please keep the number of bloods your having mixed to 10 or less, this should be enough to get a single tool completely imbued. If you have extra source salt we can mix additional bloods with that.

hes now safe, rejoice!

I'm doing it for a laugh please no ban

Hello everyone, Thank you for taking the time to read my post. I am a brand new player who just discovered this game tonight. So far it is amazing! (I just finished the tutorial ;p) I am looking for a place to call home that is beginner friendly, helpful and very active whether it be big or small. I work from home irl so I have the luxury of being extremely active and plan to make this my only game for quite some time. I'm eager to learn as much as possible and i have no problem putting in the necessary time and work to ensure I have a great experience in Wurm and to become a benefit for anyone that takes the time to show me the ropes. Anyone that is currently recruiting please feel free to pm me info and or post here. I will be checking this post and the forum on a regular basis and really look forward to finding a place that works for me. Thank again for your time!

We need this is if you are not willing to code a dialog menu for dispel. Save my tools!

The chests do take dye and it will change the look of the skin (1400g of dye). Those two could be dyed.

Will update as more people make them https://prnt.sc/rsi42c

Maybe the answer is two fold. 1. Make pelts drop off more creatures. 2. Increase the chance for pelts to be produced even when not using a butchering knife. But I'm all for being able to drop pelts in BSBs again. If the issues was it spilt a pelt into to many/small pieces. then just increase the chunk size that a bsb splits to.

Oh sure.... lets make it impossible to kill someone on a boat. Hey... here's an idea... why don't we remove stamina drain from driving carts, riding horses and even running through the woods too so that nobody ever dies.

Some highway edits around my place Mag's Rest, if you could add on Magranon's Peak deed too that'd be great, its right on the red mark on this image at 1410, 772. There's also Moonlit Euphoria at the east end of the highway at 1583, 760.

Physical movements on the server have always been determined by a consumption of stamina, from day one. If you decide to remove the stamina drain for boats category, you are going to alter an important part of the game. -1 I fully agree with Platinumteef, there are already ways to regain stamina which make you perform an action to do so. You or the team mate. And yes, please rework or remove the current sailing mechanics. It’s kinda difficult dealing with it during pvp.

Its better to take you to freedom isles where you can enjoy wurm that leave you there and probably quit

I feel like it's better to +1, because of the fact it can be gamed with stuff like endurance sandwiches. Picture new steamy players in boat pvp losing stamina while some guy is just flat out slammin down sandwiches. The simple fact that we use weird workarounds to defeat an intended mechanic just shows that there's an issue with said mechanic and the answer shouldn't be "lol just use the same weird workaround we do". I'd also +1 leaving it as is and just removing the new sailing mechanic because it sucks

great [08:46:40] You have premium time until 3 Apr 2020 15:14:13 GMT

Okay so there's some really big news Today, is NATIONAL FERRET DAY! 🥳

My heart goes out to us Cele folk, who have to suffer unbearable lag that's worse than Xanadu's during this event

It does apply to fighting skill as well. While the skill and affinity bonuses have started almost na hour ago, on midnight CEST, the skin and Marks should start appearing in your inventories in about an hour, at midnight UTC. Wogic sadly does affect timezones.

I just slap random colour runes on them and see what i get xD

hey guys i heard we want facemasks

by the way.. where are we with the math in this skill? just repaired ql44 blade from 11% damage and lost 2ql on it.. with 84.66 repairing skill, and wondering if time and rng somehow do indeed mess things up somehow?

unsure how I got my first pelt either foudn 1 laying around or used tower guards to wreck a mt.lion for me.. I had terrible skill and armor/weapon.. during the times of 10ql gear and no armor, living next to already built guard tower.. provides good amount of hide/pelt/clubs.. and oh gawd damm furs..(most common and least useless material from creatures in wurm)

Another option is to add a way to make something that functions as a low quality pelt. Perhaps make it so you can also do the polish imp action with a piece of cloth, with an appropriate effectiveness penalty? We'd still all want pelts but if someone is ever in a situation where they can't get one, they can at least do *something*.

I find the drastic difference in model quality between current chest and this model astonishing.

yeah i like the idea of a "you notice x people listening to your sermon" or whatever, as a person with a bunch of mag priests i know my sermons often get missed up because someone got targeted by a mob that died to guards and got alignment for it.

It's too funny that replies and comments to this thread didn't actually start to occur until I found out what was wrong and solved it... (And marked it as such) Thanks guys, but this topic isn't really a discussion anymore. It's not "Old and not working" anymore, it does still work. I fixed it. You can stop speculating that it's broken, un-used or otherwise now.

Celebration is now the first player-accessible live server running in AWS! This move should resolve the massive lag spikes we were seeing on Celebration, but we may experience growing pains as we adjust settings and resources for the server in AWS. The server is also still hosted in Germany. While connection lag such as from the United States and Australia will not go away it may improve some due to the AWS infrastructure. If reporting lag issues, please consider this connection lag. Also it’s best to judge lag over a period of time. The type of lag we’d expect to see would be smaller and frequent spikes, if any lag at all.

Servers are online now. Let's see how we do!

TV Tuesday at Cornersville 🙂 Until we invent TVs, this is best we can do. Happy April Fool's !!! \o/ TeeeBOMB screenies

Am I doing this right?

Corned beef and cabbage is actually a static one with my name :) I'd helped with the testing phase and asked for it to be added.

I remember when I was a teen, one boy brought in his ferret to school. It was almost an apricot colour, and I thought it was lovely. Some kids went up and stroked it, others ran away screaming and went on to tell on him. Unfortunately he had not cleared it with the teachers, and I am sorry to say he got into some trouble for it. 😕

My favorite sunset from Meerhaven: clear skies, Glengarry in the distance, and the stars just beginning to come out at dusk.

As some of you might have seen, Retro announced the steam page last night/today and revealed that I had been making some screenshots for that purpose. To make my task easier, Retro and Samool helped get me set up with the tools I need to be able to make them, and so over the past couple of weeks I have been traveling around the various servers admiring your guys amazing creations and taking screenshots of the ones that felt especially picturesque. Retro already revealed some of them in the Steam page, but I thought y'all would be interested in seeing the rest of the final ones I came up with, together with what was the name of the deed and what server it was on. Below, are just a few samples. There were 41 in total. Here are a few samples, but if you want to check out all the rest, you can do so from this link: https://www.andrea.net/wurm_shots_fixes/forum/

Blackbird Kitchen on Indy. Built it for Emoo! A few more small touches and it'll be all done. then back to Deli for to continue working on the Palace at San Fazenda, Added a top down pic with the finished Kitchen at Blackbird

Winter night looking south on Pristine

Finally my Libila colossus is in place:

I'm wondering if perhaps in the future, if there was a store shop purchase option for being able to pay money to have customized imagery uploaded into the game so we can have emblems and other creative works on your sails, banners, and flags in game. Even crests on plate armor. The way it would work, before purchase, players would upload a "submission" that would be vetted by developers to make sure no nude, or other explicit content could get through. Once approved you could pay a flat fee to have your image on an item: flags, sails, banners, etc. Here's an example from the game Haven and Hearth... After submission players would receive a schematic of sorts in-game via their inventory similar to how purchasing prem rewards work. They would then be able to apply this like a skin, one time use to an item of their choice when applicable. I think this would open opportunities in game for players to trade silver for custom designed boat sails. Which in turn could increase the amount of purchased silver on the store. Thoughts?
