Berris

lol Looroll. I'm from Essex. Not my proudest feature.

I've no idea what my place was in your grand scheme but I like to think you have found peace as a new convert to Magranon. Albeit on the second attempt.

Might do some travel early next week if my main finishes his project early. I'll let you know if I'm in the area.

Gosh! I'm so excited at my new ability to reproduce priests that I'll toss in a free gift for the first person to get priested by my alt Devere. Find us at Berrisville! No promises about the nature or quality of the gift.

Great idea! Sadly I can't make this one due to work but if there's a Christmas impalong I'll be there for sure. Best of luck with the event.

The WHY question is important. I don't see why we need one, beyond ensuring that the spawn point isn't a desolate wasteland.

Surely Samling is the logical 'base' since it is where people (re)spawn when they start playing or die. Every other village on the map can change over the years but the respawn point will always be vital, not only to people who die but also to new players arriving in Freedom for the first time. To me the idea of not developing Samling at all seems like a mistake, but it has been made and so having a capital (if we need one) that is fairly close to Samling would make sense. Darkenstone fits the bill nicely I think.

Looking back I might not have made it clear that I think it's a great idea too!

For a starter it might be nice if we could have built a 'church' to the three gods in the starter town - that was something I quite wanted to do in the new server. Big stone building; three gold alters with gold statues next to them and maybe some nice rows of stone benches to make it look like a church. If I ever get around to my long-debated s10 village then I will make one for certain but it would have been good to have been able to have it at the 'capital'.

I'm going and so is my priest alt.

Last night it was at the point of the Northern Highway where it 'kinks' - just north of New Town. It headed off towards Bear Bay after mutilating my alt...

Sorry MD - obviously if I'd known the story I wouldn't have posted. We figured it had spawned due to the Freedom code being put on Home. I very much hope you get something back for your loss.

lol Just for you I'll try...

I'd have been well .ed if I'd died! I'm so careful normally...

It sounds like it hatched from the egg. Pics, sadly not, but I've spoken to some other witnesses so at least I know I didn't dream it.

I wish. It moved fast and did me a Bad (through my ql70 drake) then ran off. Freedom suddenly seems very scary!

Quite simply that sounds perfect to me! Even Epic - now I read the new description - is something i understand and can see the value of for some players. All the best Rolf - and thanks for the information and discussion.

I must admit I don't understand who the 'Epic' server is aimed at. Maybe a few people will go there for with alts as a novelty but it seems a bit ... random ... for a game that heavily focuses on building. Freedom sounds like the server that a lot of us do want - no pvp/kvk; and no changes to our current skills; in other words pretty much what Home used to be. I tend to feel that Freedon, Golden Valley, and Wild are all that we need going forward. Much as I love JK Home it seems that it will only fracture the player base even more to have MR and JK Home once Freedom is open - just let people choose Wild or Freedom with no loss of skills or gear.

Thanks guys; I will try not to steal my friend's FS gains in future then! Teaming up is maybe good only for the tougher creatures that we can't beat solo.

How does FS gain work if two characters fight a single creature? Say the higher FS tanks and the lower FS hits it from behind. It seems you get less FS gain per character, but is it a lot less to make up for the very much reduced risk? Is it a tactic that isn't much used because of reduced skill gain or is it actually worth doing? Any thoughts/comments/advice appreciated.

Great post - the Wurm Forum is indeed a giant intellectual soap opera and I'm glad you've led the way in coming out as a fan of it! Hope you enjoy the game just as much and that I see you around some time.

The full death toll will only be clear when you add to all the 'insta-quits' those of us who are just playing out our remaining premium; logging in a lot less than before but still around to help our firends/allies who are staying. Too into the game to just go cold turkey so instead leaving gradually with our paid-up time.

Don't much like the fight skill nerf; don't really care for the drowning mechanics; not spending another cent on the game becasue of PvP on Home (will likely quit once current premium expires unless the PvP goes away)

Just to say that I have really enjoyed my 4 months of playing Wurm and I have spent a fair bit of cash on buying a year of premium and deed upkeep which I didn't mind because the game was so enjoyable. I liked my 'carebear' server. I will see how things pan out over the next few days/weeks but if raiding continues I will give all my stuff away to anyone who is remianing and just log in once in a while so long as my premium lasts to help out people who want a mason/miner/repairman to help fortify their homes. What I will certainly not do is pay a single € more into the game because I do not wish to play PvP.
