Use a very low quality grooming brush next time if you aren't already: 1ql or so. Better chance at getting a tick.

This is just awful and now crocodiles do it too.
Perhaps move the sounds from idle loop to when the creature picks a new target or something like that.
So you know it's coming for you when out hunting/exploring but doesn't really matter if you are sitting on deed next to it.

I've known others had problems with their connections because of wurm too. One close friend of mine had similar problems and quit because of it.
Looking back to our discussions, it was something about wurm servers flooding her router with lots of inquiries. The router would log everything and then have problems working.
It would resume working normally when the logs were cleared but that wouldn't last long.

A thousand times yes.

Turn off faithful and desecrate away.
Aren't champions supposed to not be able to lose faith anyway?

I think i like how this sounds

MRE because that's how i started and it's good enough

Tidelander: Inactive gets a reward.
I presumably get 20 codes and the responsibility to distribute fairly all around the alliance.
Sounds more like a punishment to me, no way to satisfy everybody.
I do agree this whole reward system is a mess.
PS: If you didn't like the "alliance" why didn't you break it and make your own, claiming this "prize"?
PSS: I believe I did my part, it's not like I played for a day and quit...

Yes please. Also let us stop leading while in combat.

People being able to stealth and grab items from depots without unstealthing.
or
Stealthed players should unstealth even by same kingdom walking next to them.
This caused much of the trust issues in our alliance.

If it's time for a new mission but the server is down, the new mission never starts.
It just happened with Magranon. A mission expired on Elevation during maintenance restart but there was no new mission.
It has happened again in the past.

Also a similar spell for Magranon and sand perhaps

If this was a home assignment in 3d modelling, then you'd get quite a hefty reduction for mirroring the frontsides textures... especially since it includes a rather unique woodpattern...Sorry for nitpicking but... This is actually possible to do in real life by cutting a plank in two and flipping one piece horizontally

It'd be really nice to see where the opponent is aiming, but how would it work for multiple people/animals attacking?When someone who targets you aims, write a coloured line in combat log. For your target only, constantly display aim/focus/action at the bottom of the tab, next to where it writes stance and target name.
Not really sure how it works as is, it's not really used so hard to say what needs changing
I believe this is how protecting/aiming already works, but that's just belief and not proven
The attacker can change his aim before you can change yours, easily landing a hit when timed right. Protecting an area should have a very obvious effect to counter this. Make it twice as hard to hit an enemy who is protecting the area you are aiming, for hitting, bashing and special moves alike.
I would personally rather remove the curve from shield bashing. Reward those that grind it high while not letting everyone be an uber basher in days
Removing the curve sounds good, but long stuns are never a good thing, since being stunned practically makes you a spectator of the fight for its duration. Perhaps something like eight seconds maximum then?
50/50 on it, with cooldown it could maybe be ok. Might change fights too much if everyone gets max level in a minuteI would really like to see a different and viable way to start a fight other than bashing. With special moves also available immediately and the ability to interrupt focusing, I don't think focusing to the maximum will be a problem.
Concerning how powerful some are I can't agree to thisIf something is too powerful right now, it should be toned down anyway. I guess you are talking about moves like the triple-hit-to-the-head or throwing-up, which someone could quickly perform then ride out of the fight until they are available again. Giving those a longer timer and with the ability to bash/interrupt them, I don't think it would be much of a problem, just something your opponent should look out for.
This is really necessary as is, someone can spam a stun special move and constantly hit and keep you stunnedThinking more about this, a cooldown for specific special moves rather than for specific position would be better. So you cannot for example aim center-high, do a stun, then aim right-up and do another.
Giving a general statement here, I'm not too fond of this. Aiming is the only way to block more than one person that can do special moves to you in the same area, and a group doing this can purposely force you to try interupting and lose your staminaIf protecting an area is buffed to make special moves much harder to hit but not completely prevent them this wouldn't be much of a problem. If you have to worry about multiple people aiming you, your fate is probably sealed anyway.
It's interesting, but I'm not sure. Not much thoughtThe idea is to give people caught without stamina a chance to get into the fight. It would also encourage using abilities like focusing and special moves knowing you could get the stamina back later if needed. You'd have to catch your breath before you completely run out of stamina though, as getting hit at no stamina is easier and it would interrupt regeneration.
I think cooldown should be the same for all shields, it wouldn't accomplish much as people would just use small shields for bashing instead, since small shields can still block arrows fine as long as you aim properlyTrue, it was a bad idea. Perhaps shorter cooldown for smaller shields and longer stuns for larger shields would add variety more properly.
Mmm granted lag doesn't allow for much twitch fighting (not to mention other issues); however, that's not to say the devs can't cheat and make it look like twitch fighting while still based on stats and pseudo rng.I was trying to think of ways to make combat more interesting without a complete engine overhaul.
-
Following discussions about how the current combat system is bad but lag issues don't allow twitch fighting...
Some ideas about spicing up our fights without changing the core.
Also some annoying details that would be nice to see fixed.
Combat Feedback
- A way to see where your combat target is aiming, his focus level and any action or combat ability he is currently doing, either at the target window or at the bottom of the combat tab
- Paint informative combat lines including your target's name in a special way, eg. with purple
Protecting an area
- Buff the current defensive bonus, reduce incoming damage to that area
- Areas opposite to what you are protecting get a minor defensive debuff
- Add a working visual timer when trying to protect, similar to aiming at an area
Shield Bashing
- Reduce maximum stun duration to four seconds
- Add a combat message for when someone starts bashing you
- Add an animation
Focusing
- Remove the initial delay before it is made available
- Add a cooldown of ten seconds
- Add an animation
Special moves
- Remove the initial delay before they are made available
- Add a proper animation for them, instead of just holding whatever item you have activated
- Add a combat message for when someone starts using a special move on you
- Stop randomizing the order in which they are listed
- Fix the keybinds so that they actually work for all special moves
- Order them so that special moves of different aiming positions but with similar effects have the same keybind
- Add a ten-second group cooldown for all special moves of the same aiming position
Interrupting
- New move similar to shield bashing, available for all weapons and stances
- One second timer, ten second cooldown, five stamina cost
- Just aiming at the same direction as your opponent no longer blocks special moves, you have to use this ability instead
- If you succeed and you were aiming at the same position as your target, immediately interrupt any action he is doing; if it was a combat ability or spell, send it into cooldown
- If your fail, your aim is off or the target wasn't in the middle of an action, you make a bad move, stunning yourself for one second
Resting (catching your breath)
- A toggle button similar to ranged mode
- Toggling it on prevents you from attacking
- Let's you replenish stamina even in mid fight but at a slower rate
- Getting hit resets the time you have to wait before gaining stamina
Dynamic cooldowns
- Smaller shields have a shorter cooldown for bashing
- Larger shields block arrows better
- Smaller weapons have a shorter cooldown for interrupting
- Larger weapons have special moves that are harder to stop and with buffed special effects
- Lighter armours have a shorter cooldown for special moves
- High mind speed reduces focusing cooldown
NPC AI
- Give creatures their own special attacks in a more structured manner than the current triple-hit moves
- Add a combat message for when they start using a special move
- Make it possible to interrupt them
Thanks for reading

Remove counter, use 1 minute of sleep bonus immediately when you turn it on.

If the traders at the starter deeds is the problem, then make the traders roaming. Each day they move to a different deed, any deed. It eliminates camping the traders and gives everyone a chance to get some cash from the traders. I know it's not a perfect solution, but it would help with the issues I see here.
I really like this idea.
