Delicious things are brewing! Here's a sneak peek at coffee and tea plants, as well as some lovely new dishes coming soon to the world of Wurm Online.

Not everything will be everyone's.... cup of tea 😜

Let's get together for the slaying of the venerable white dragon! Everyone will get some scale and a blacksmithing blood. I'm glad to have helped pen this beast and make it a public event for everyone together with Uszi and Kvinto. Thanks to Kvinto for spotting the beast. He will receive the dragon's skull as his reward. Thanks to Uszi for holding it until it could be penned for a public slaying. He gets to take home the rest of the body.

Hello all! As per Samool’s post, I’ll be stepping up as the product manager for Wurm Online. Thank you for all the hard work you’ve done Samool. Working with you has been a pleasure, and I wish you all the best. I do hope you are able to bring your amazing skills back to us in the future. I’d like to start by saying that I am working on an updated road map, which may take a little more time before it’s ready, to ensure accuracy. What I can say right now is that we are shifting priorities a little: the Exploration update is still on the radar but will be pushed back to allow more time to finish and test it; in the meantime, we will be focusing on smaller suggestions, as well as some surprises for Halloween, all coming later this month. There is other content brewing as well, but I’ll leave that for teasing later! Map dumps will be coming around the New Year, as per our normal schedule, but they will include Northern Freedom Isles! Defiance will have a map dump that is delayed somewhat, with the actual delay still being determined; this is to protect fledgling villages that are still working on defenses. Finally, as a thank you for being patient with us, we will be running a 30% skill-gain and affinity bonus weekend at the end of this month. This will start with the update on the 28th of October and continue until midnight, server time, on the 4th of November (Thursday - Wednesday). Thank you all and happy Wurming! Edit: Due to some recommendations, we'll be doing a full week of bonus instead of just a weekend. This is to accommodate folks of varying play times.

Yessssss. I too would like to replace my brass oil lamps and beer steins with actual tea and coffee sets. Also, yes - please consider a way to let us use food as deco items! I can't find my post on this from last year but there have been several across the years. Beeswax to render food functionally inedible but usable as a decoration without decay. Let us make our own breakfast tables and feasts and buffets and julbords! ❤️❤️

Oooh exciting!!! Can't wait to replace my brass oil lamps with actual tea pots Curious to see what kind of effects coffee will have. Fingers crossed the new dishes will come with a way to preserve food as decoration. Those muffins look delicious!!

As the title states: A troll literally started swimming towards me ( center of the lake). It showed the troll walking underwater as if its walking on the ground and got to me. He is now stuck in the middle of the lake, as I swam back to shore fast and he could not swim back to me this time.

Basically making cheese gain ql akin to wine. Granted the process can differ depending on the type of milk used and end result desired, for example introducing molds or prepared cultures. Time period can range from a few days to years. Then there's hard and soft cheeses... Only works when not inside of a food bin or crate. Perhaps even require the cheese to be wrapped in wax (bees!) or cheese paper (papyrus?) before it will "ripen".

i dont think that is what the game needs

Wurm needs more events so the content doesn't become too stale. Other than the occasional impalong we don't have much going on. Content updates have been sparse recently and if we don't get huge updates (the AH update was a bust objectively which didn't alter the gameplay for the better, it's just...a different experience) at least give us some monthly events. Maybe scavenger hunts, easter egg hunts, puzzles, coop server goals, group challenges, something to liven up the atmosphere. The kingdom chats are pretty silent these days and gchat is as well. Hope some steps to boost the population through new events are considered. Our population is dwindling fast.

Just want to say something about a new horse trait I saw this morning, ... It looks plump and ready to butcher. My question is ........WHY? What good was this? It is hard enough to breed in the traits you want, to get a fast horse, or a draft horse, and to get rid of bad traits. What was the point of this? Do people actually breed horses in this game for meat? Did you add this as a joke or just to make the whole process even more difficult? In my opinion, .. stupid idea. Okay that's about it, thanks.

I just finished doing some work in my yard and I figured out too late that I ordered too many paving stones and it occurred to me that it would be pretty cool if I could transfer them from RL into Wurm somehow and then I noticed that each stone has an individual barcode so it would be pretty easy for the devs to write some code to let players scan the barcodes of their surplus building materials and then they get the equivalent number of paving stones or whatever delivered to their deed in Wurm to help with their latest road project or whatever and I know what you're thinking that it would be open to abuse because you could just scan the bricks a bunch of times and get infinite bricks or whatever but I thought of that too you'd just have to ship the bricks to the Code Club office in Sweden so the devs could count them and make sure you're not getting more bricks than you deserve and I looked into the shipping prices and they're quite reasonable if you're rich and anyway I shipped a pallet of bricks to Code Club and they should be arriving next Tuesday.

DONT WORRY DUDE.. WE GOT THIS NERF COVERED you have no idea how bad woodcutting is.. at 99woodcutting I get completely ridiculed when I try to cut a tree with 99 skill and runed rare hatchet ql95(lazy to imp higher), it's pointless anyway (mods, not trolling, there are several bug reports on woodcutting and ql of chopped logs and reroll mechanic for rolls over 100..)

with 97 woodcutting and a 95ql supreme hatchet my average tree ql is 80ish, and then chopping them all into logs drops the average quality again, so not sure where you're getting this idea from. are you 100 woodcutting? quick look at merchant ads and trade chat posts on both servers shows that 95+ql logs sell for more than 95+ql lumps so dunno bout this guess chief 100ql veins don't exist, are you throwing out expectations of how you think things work again

Anyone still reading ;> ?

I don't need to make use of this as I have my own sailboat, but glad to see it offered for those newer players I've seen that really needed a way to cross from Cadence to Harmony or back the other way! Cheers for your generosity!

also a little sad that this is now the standard for a public slaying, and not the people there rolling for all the loot like it used to be the standard but still. better than nothing.

imagine starbucks expansion, coffee with 1000 spice varieties to it... (ugh.. #TeamCleanBlack)

"CLEAR!" I scream, my arms on fire from doing compressions, "All clear, frag em!" calls the familliar voice of Samara next to me. I stop compressions, making sure all parts of my body are away from the patient before hitting the large orange button on the AED to send 3000 volts of electricity through 2 small plastic pads attached to their chest directly to their heart. "Your turn!" I pant, slumping back slightly as Samara locks her fists together and begins chest compressions on the massive patient straining the gurney in the back of the ambulance. "Copy that!" She replies, counting out under her breaeth "1 and 2 and 3 and 4 and 5...." You better ###### live! I think to myself, tilting my head up at the top of the MTC, closing my eyes for a moment, listening to the entire vehicle shudder as it hurtles down the road on washboard gravel, the soft pitter patter of a light drizzle sounding like the hammering of gunfire against it's fiberglass sides. "Continue chest compressions" the AED advises as we hit a hard rut on the forestry road sending both Samara and I flying about the cramped interior. "Could you hit any more ###### potholes?" I jokingly fire out through the small window to the cab. "Yous fink yous can does better yous drive! I save patient!" Frank yells back. I simile and re-position the bag valve mask on the patience face to deliver the next shot of life saving oxygen into them. "Probably could but then, you're crazier than I with driving, any word on if SAR can get in to us with Bravo-350?" I ask. "We're still 30 minutes from just getting to pavement and Sam and I are toast on carrying on with CPR". "Nah no-ting! I can't see ###### thing cept tree and road, no time for itunes!" "Well, keep it between the tree's and the shiney side up then Frank!" A plaintive beeping pulls my eyes open, I reach around fumbling for a small black and yellow brick skittering around the floor. "Sure the ###### sat phone works here, what do they want now?" I think. "1 and 2 and 28 and 29 and 30" Samara's voice counts. I squeeze the bag between her compressions. "2 good breaths". She glares at me as I shrug. "Gotta follow protocol hun, his ribs are mush but his lungs take air, we are still keeping him alive technically, once we get him to the hospital they can do more". The glare intensifies from her beautiful green eyes, red ringlets of hair framing her pale face covered in sweat as she continues counting out for her 2 minutes breathily "1 and 2 and 3 and 4...." I swing the bvm over to her to let her carry on solo CPR, I know she can handle it. We are all trained for it. Get them to the hospital alive. I hit accept on the sat phone "Unless you got an ACP crew or Bravo ready to extract us I don't have time for you." I spit into the phone. "This is the director, vitals?" a near toneless voice responds. "The ###### are you talking about, we've kept control up to date?" I snarl into it, looking over at Samara as she counts out compressions, a bump jolts the MTC "1 and 2 and 3 and 4 and...." "Vitals" the voice replies. "You have them, 12 assistted, 100 assisted, hour out from hospice, still requesteing SAR extract" I reply looking over at Samara with a puzzled face. "Same as 10 mins ago" "Patient deceased, cancel". The voice replies. "Sorry but I don't know who the ###### you are, director is not a name, and without a name you can't call that, now get off this line and if you are director get some assets out to me" I scream into the phone as I hit end. "Samara, you---- " "Analyzing patient, stay clear" the helpful AED chimes in. "FRANK! HIT THE BRAKES! WE CHANGING GET IN HERE AND RELIEVE SAMARA AND I" The MTC lurches as Frank hits the brakes hard, we can both feel it sliding on the mud beneath us as the ABS tries to compeensate, the gunshot sounds of raindrops fall to soft pitter patter on the fibreglass hull, the MTC rocks sleightly as Frank exits the vehicle. The back doors open and Franks massive frame squeeze's in beside us both. "I know it's standard practice to alternate between 2mins Frank, but ..." I begin. "Shock advised" chimes the friendly AED. "Go, I might be crazy driver but you better, and Sam needs break." he says, tossing me a grin "Charging do not touch patient! Shock advised!" the AED chimes. "Gotcha bro, thanks." I exclaim as I jump out into the rain, so refreshingly cooling. I glance back and see Frank doing good compressions as I slam the back of the MTC doors shut and move towards the driver side door he left open. Rain slicking the mud beneath my boots causing rivulets to flow around us. "All those dumbasses wearing airwalks from the 90's" I think to myself, "woulda wiped out and went down the mountain instantly in this." I laugh to myself. "Charged. Deliver shock" the helpful AED chimes. "Yous clear Sam?" I hear Frank say as I grip the drivers door. Reality flickers. Like a lightning flash. "Yes, I'm clear" she replies, reality flickers again in another lightning flash. My mind swims a bit, too many compressions that's all, short of breath. "Both clear?" Franks voice intones, lightning flashes again and reality seems to fold. I put my foot inside the cab door, "Charged. Deliver shock" the AED chimes again. I grab the steering wheel to pull myself in. Another flash, I feel dizzy. "All clearFrag 'em" Samara's voice speaks through an echo chamber to my ears. My foot is inside the door, my hand gripping the steering wheel to haul myself inside, my other hand gripping the metal door. "Voltron!" Franks voice is a distant memory as lightning flashes again and reality completely collapses as it feels like the AED sends those 3000 volts through me. *********** BREATH! my mind screams, consciousness returning. My body convulses. "Voltron" echo's in my mind. Oh how it took us so long to make Frank even just have a laugh at it. ""Voltron" Oh how my head hurts. How did that AED transfer through fibreglass to the chassis to me holding a steeringwheel. The hell. I turn. I turn, my head scrapes something hard, scratching it, my arms still like jelly as I pull myself into the cab of the MTC, my hands seem to grip nothing. I gasp through the pain, I curl into a defensive ball, my entire being reeling, protect the body, realize surroundings, adapt. No blows come, the pain receeds, I hear water flowing, not the pitter patter of raindrops, a brook or stream flowing and gurgling, I hear noise, birds singing, children playing, people talking as if in a Walmart. I turn my head, my ear scraping the cobble stones, drawing a scrape across my cheek from their rough, pitted touch. I wince and groan in pain, but it is quickly forgotten as my shock deepens. People move about in odd dress, the bustle of hawkers and children screaming in play fills my ears. "Great, slipped, knock myself out, and am dreaming of a renaissance fair" I think to myself. My brain rejects this almost immediately "There are no such fairs nearby, someone must be playing a joke on me." "Samara, the patient, Frank". They seem distant echos. I curl up, placing my right hand on my knee and shove myself into a squatting position, my eyes blinking at the blinding sun as I crouch and begin to take in my surroundings. A woman stops before me, concern in her eyes. "Are you alright?" she asks. I start, not expecting normal speech, I had expected a heavy english accent of some sort for them to keep in character. I shake my head, trying to clear the cobwebs, also giving myself time to compose a proper response without seeming like an idiot. "I.... yes, thank you, I think I fell, I'm alright, just a bit stunned." I reply. "Oh that happens to everyone who comes through the portal", the woman twitters merrily. "Most of you are all the same, all pretending to be nice and fit in to be all prim and proper but completely clueless as a newborn babe entering the world" My eyes widen as I look at her, the disbelief obvious in them. She laughs, a tinkling sound as if she knows an inside joke. "Oh you poor soul" she continues, "You will figure it out easily enough, just follow the signs, and by the way, welcome to Sonota! City of the Northern Free Isles!" The look of idiocy on my face must be clear, she laughs again, shaking her head at some joke only she knows, brown ringlets framing her pale face around blue eyes as she gathers her skirts and rises before striding across the cobblestone out of sight. Stunned by the causal exchange of the woman, I look around, and start to laugh uncontrollably as I rise to my feet, remembering an old movie. "Ayup Dorothy, you arn't in Kansas anymore". Absentmindedly I shoulder my pack and start off towards the first sign I see, ""Sam and Frank must be freaking they have now 2 patients" Lets see where this goes. Edits: Grammar correction on I try. (Or narrative improvement, your thought choice) The story will continue to follow adventures my toon as done hopefully in the same/similar manner should enough interest be shown in the threat (I will write 1-2 more posts to follow up, this is just entry before deciding on stopping or continuing writing)

Why a portal? Just enable the 'plot course' on ships and boats to be able to reach both server clusters with no limitation there. The only issue I can see are the existing portals to PvP as SFI portals go to Epic and NFI portals go to Defiance. That, I believe, is one of the issues for enabling crossing of any kind.

80s. Rev

75s

My suggestion is to eventually open a portal between the SFI and NFI clusters that work like the portal between NFI PvE servers and Defiance server. You won't be able to transfer any items but you will be able to transfer your characters back and forth at anytime and all skills except faith, fighting and meditation will transfer. If a full merge is to happen at anytime, I believe this would be the way to do it because of the massive ammounts of rare/supreme items, bones and scale sets among other things that already exist in SFI. SFI could serve the existing players of both clusters as a great hunting and archeology cluster since NFI servers have newbie friendly monster spawns from the looks of it.

Great, thanks IGN Tukodama

Thank you for the read! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Picture will be updated every now-and-then

some weird things i've noticed shield grinding since the combat update 1. mobs will focus when not in combat, there just needs to be someone within 10 tiles or so of them, quite a few times i've entered combat with a hell scorp to find it's already focused up to its maximum. Their focus will also not drop if someones in the area, so if you're doing pen training with a large group of them, on the first loop most won't be focused, but once you finish all and start at the beginning, they'll all be focused up. 2. If there's multiple people in the area, they'll all always only target one person even if they can't path to them, but can to you, and when you enter combat with them, they won't turn towards you or change stance, so you can always be fighting with the mob facing away from you for - cr. should be prioritizing people it can path too 3. if you target something on the other side of a fence, but you're in combat with something else in range, the combat window strobes in and out non-stop and breaks combat 4. If you're shield training with something out of range targeted, the combat window doesn't leave until you get 2 tiles away from whatever way attacking you, if you enter combat with another mob without clearing the window, and you were already skillgain disabled from being in combat for over 15 minutes with the first mob, the new mob will also have skillgain disabled.

Bump. Don’t know if others will chime in but I think a good middle ground for both sides would be something like every 90 days for a map dump. The people that want map dumps will still get them and the people that don’t want them will have plenty of time to fortify a deed or decide if Defiance for them.

looks like good news but too bad that the skillgain week covers only the last 2 days of the impalong

Pretty sure legacy renderer is being removed at some point, might not be worth buying something with that in mind

Did you stop the decay on lanterns ? Cus pointless to have a nice looking item that decays as fast as food…………

more maps!!! next: just add sailing from SFI

A distant corner of Wurm:

The Freedom Isles Society for the Prevention of Cruel and Unusual Dismemberment of Dragons, Drakes, and Creatures of Royal Lineage, or FISPCUDDDCRL for short, (Game Masters) has been closely monitoring all black market activity with regards to the sales of body parts that that have been seen coming from several chop shops that have set up in the region. After much investigation,(log reading) and many doughnut heavy stake outs,(actually this one is pretty much accurate) we have witnessed and recorded events and rituals that are otherwise impossible without the use of forbidden magics!(cheating) We have known for some time that something unusual was going on and had to assemble an elite team of mercenaries and spend a huge amount of time to collect enough information to determine what is legitimate, by the mechanics, unique hunting and slaying, and what is definitely not. Some hunting groups we could clearly tell were hunting unique creatures as intended and then there was the other group... .....yeah.... During many months of detailed work of collecting physical and logged evidence, we witnessed members of this group on multiple occasions, sail onto a server, land on a section of shore, then travel directly to where we had manually placed unique creatures for monitoring. Once at the location, they stopped, looked around for a moment, then went directly back to their boat and off server. These uniques were not at their general spawn areas and were fully protected by our team. There is no possible legal way for anyone to find these protected unique creatures with the normal client and yet more than once, this group demonstrated they could via the use of a third party cheat. Needless to say we are not happy at all with these people, using a third party hack, as we consider this to be an egregious violation of our Terms of Service as well as a despicable theft of an enjoyable part of the game that the entire Wurm Online community should have equal opportunity to access. There is still some discussion concerning some of the people involved, but a rather large group has already been permanently banned from Wurm Online for profiting from these cheats while robbing our greater Wurm Online community of natural opportunities to participate in a very fun and engaging aspect of our game. Thank you for your time, Enki (Chief Bison of the FISPCUDDDCRL Lodge) (Head Game Master)

Schrodinger's vets: hundreds of accounts with all 99s and thousands of gold, while simultaneously being on empty servers

The fears are largely pointless. Wurm population is in overall decline, read the threads measuring population data. They said "Freedom would die" when the Epic>Freedom skill transfer kicked in, but it didn't. Partially because there were so few Epic players left in the first place, partially because the market on SFI was so consolidated and oversaturated with goods, a few accounts didn't make a dent. If we wait until NFI drops to 200 players or less, the merge won't change anything. Personally I've seen that fracturing the community in clusters leads to people eventually quitting, leaving empty servers behind. Epic is an abandoned cluster. It's been an abandoned cluster for years and no new group have established a significant presence there. NFI at the moment is pretty much within the same historic parameters as Epic, in the sense that it is an isolated cluster, far removed from the old Freedom Cluster, SFI. No merge will eventually lead players to feel like they are gated on a few servers. This could have been partially avoided or mitigated if there were significant efforts to advertise at the steam launch that there was PLENTY OF SPACE on both SFI / Epic for new players to start, prime real estate is all over the place. And looking back, the main counterargument that "But we don't want new players in an established market being taken advantage of by the veterans. We don't want new players to realise they can't sell their wares competitively when weapons / gear are so cheap." ..... right. And the reality of having price gouging on NFI where things are sold at absurd prices is better? At least the competition on SFI is so high that you can always find a bargain due to the number of sellers. Personally I think we have too many servers, but closing any down would do harm to the people that worked / terraformed / played there. I don't see any solution other than perhaps adding a distinctive "feature" to every individual server or cluster to make them unique and appealing such as : 1. Epic - add the 2 way skill transfer with less skill from Epic transfered to freedom. Literally this is the #1 incentive no one plays there since your skill is isolated there. 2. Independence - increased body stam / climbing skillgain + add individual player goals to climb indy's mountains and "plant a sign" on top of the mountains there. Rewards can be in the form of moon metals, sleep powders, a climbing affinity token, etc. 3. Deliverance - increased religion / prayer skillgain (in line with the server's name), have missions / player goals dedicated for priests. 4. Pristine - increased swords skillgain, have goals to hunt a lot there and keep the server mob population reduced. You get the idea, but at this point I think servers could benefit from more of a unique touch, that tries to branch out to multiple playstyles, anything that encourages travelling, unique identities, etc. Merging them won't kill off wurm no more than having a skill transfer didn't kill freedom (currently SFI). The only thing I'm certain of is that the market needs "item sinks" for prices to stabilize, otherwise you can open 50 new "fresh" servers and nothing will change. The other thing I know is we have way too many servers and open space in them that it feels like a ghost town wherever you go.

The NFI-SFI portal does not make any sense now (btw NFI-Epic doesn't either as that would create tons of complications, Epic deserves better). The proposal has been raised last year, when the population on NFI was exploding, 2 additional servers created within a few weeks, and new players still complaining about lack of spots to settle and sky high prices for everything, quite some quitting for that reason. At that time, the SFI population had somewhat decreased compared to the last pre launch months due to "emigration" to NFI mainly for market and PvP opportunities, and some fresh blood would have been welcome. The situation has reverted since. The NFI population was in significant decline during the whole of 2020 but has reached stability since, especially taking in account that Wurm participation always shrunk somewhat during summer season. SFI has not only stabilized but gained some additional participation. None of those figures is extremely encourageing as the churn rates are too high everywhere, and that is not only kids yearning for fast gains. But NFI certainly needs no player emigration to other parts of Wurm. Instead of cannibalizing sub-communities the unification of the clusters should be considered.

Why? Didn't you hear their plans to connect them if 1 it flops 2 in a few years after release? Just be patient

Bump! I want to age my cheese and put it on display on a cheese rack!
