  1. I purchased 100 silver on the new server. After dropping a massive deed and buying a rare knife I got about 70 silver left. Thats the extent of my expenditures. You can very well play without spending a penny on the new servers. You make 1k bricks, sell them and that should get you enough to get 15 days of prem. All it takes is a hole in the ground and an afternoon. A thick rope is going for 60c, sheets for 30. Cotton goes for like 100x 1s or so. Making money on the new servers is easy. Is not that you cant suggest it. Its that you can't expect it. The old servers are and have been empty since before Steam, and now they are deserted. You are asking new players to forsake a community of hundreds of players to go play with.... you? I rather they played on the active side and actually want to stay for years to come. There is nothing wrong with going to the old servers, but you will not see a community to rival the one on the new servers, ever. There is nothing to offer the new people. People can't pay for their own prem with in game money on the old servers. You have to make about 5x more bricks for a month of premium in Xanadu, and that is if you can find someone to buy them, and no one, absolutely no one, will buy your 30ql non enchanted tools, or your 10ql rowboat. What can the old servers possibly offer the new ones other than your undying friendship? Scale they can't ever obtain? Unique groups they cant ever join? A dead economy? I am not saying they shouldnt go there, but be realistic. Southern Feedom is the new Epic.
  2. "Rawr! I want to play with moar people but I dont want to move to the place where people are! Come here instead!" While I understand the sentiment, why not give the new servers a try? If you dont like it your old stuff will still be there. Try something new!
  3. Comeon guys, its been less than 24 hours for the suggestion. Is not like Darklords sleeps or anything but damn lol.
  4. [retracted] sorry didnt read properly before bidding. My mistake!
  5. I have applied and been granted a developer account (it was instant) but I still can't make it work. Instructions unclear. Stick #### in electric socket. Thank you!
  6. I can do a courier cast depending on what cast you are looking for. Pm me if interested with details. Will travel.
  7. So its no longer possible to use twitter alerts? Or is it now only possible for people with developer skills? If this requires expertise on the user's side it will present a significant in game disadvantage for those without the skills to do so.
  8. https://www.wurmpedia.com/index.php/Twitter That page is pretty much good for nothing. I followed the instructions and pretty much nothing in there is helpful. It points out to things that no longer exist. Can someone with a better understanding of this update it?
  9. I have yet to see any evidence of your points from you. All you got is "get me 10 names." That's not evidence, that's a logical fallacy. You want me to bring the evidence that proves your point wrong, when the burden of proving an argument is yours, and since I don't it must mean your argument is right. That's not how it works. Since before the Epic merge, the point you are bringing was correct. Once they did the epic rework the skilling changed. Epic now has an increased amount of skill gain with a x3 action speed timer with a WU skill system, which makes skilling incredibly fast. The grinding system is not like on freedom where the lenght of your action timers matter. On epic you want CoC AND WoA on your tools at highest possible quality for skilling. This makes skilling incredibly broken. Now I am not completely opposed to merging Epic and Southern Freedom, but I understand the reasoning behind it. Allowing people to come over without any type of skilling adjustment is quite unfair for all the Freedomers who didn't have a system that allowed them to cheese it. Will it break the servers? Not really. Its just a matter of preference. But what you fail to realize is that was not what I was arguing. My argument was over Northern Freedom Isles. I pointed it on my last post where I indicated to you that you were not clear about what "any server" means. Any server means any server, not "just southern freedom isles". But you ignored that part of my comment and decided to just run with it anyways and leave this gem here: I've given you plenty arguments as to why your suggestion is not feasible. You just dismiss them as invalid out of ... what exactly? You surely don't have ot agree with me, but that doesn't mean either of us is correct. That's what debating opinions is about. Character attacks won't get you anywhere though. Stick to the debate... or don't. Its your choice.
  10. You got the evidence or the numbers to back that claim? There's a few who play there still, and there's even more accounts that are dormant because they were grinded after the change. If you could move them freely between servers people would just reactivate them. Yet the thread is mainly geared thowards the new servers as per the OP. Nowhere in your statement did you say it was only for the Southern Freedom islands. In fact, you specifically stated "any server." You should have made the distinction as it is pretty meaningful.
  11. Who cares? The majority of the player base who had grinded all their skills in Freedom and nearly all if not all of the current Northern Freedom players who are happy with the economy and the grind. Dump all the epic players with their accounts, their items and their resources on Northern Freedom and watch the entire new playerbase vanish overnight.
  12. As someone who grinded on Epic I can guarantee you that is not x2, and that the current mechanic on epic is not the same it was years ago. You can very well get 100 digging on Epic. Epic skilling was changed to the WU one on the last epic rework.
  13. ,+1! Also add a remote auction house fea... oh wait...
  14. Um... No. I rather not have people smashing the economy with overpowered skills because they grinded on epic lol. Edit. plus thats not how epic skilling works.
  15. Epic is a prime example as to why this model doesn't work. Newer players starting on the new servers have no incentive to go to the old servers, while the old players will be able to infuse the new economy with old money by liquidating assets since coins are account-bound and not restrictee by inventory limitations.. This will always put the old players at a huge advantage over the new and will destroy the economy, or at least greatly affect it.
  16. Solution: Join a village with a variety of people and trade your crafts with friends/other villagers. Split your tasks and you won't have to pay a silver. But of course everyone wants to play alone and get others to sell them cheap stuff so they don't have to put any effort. ???
  17. I dont know what people are complaining about. Dont like the price? Make it yourself. My deed mate wants hq weapons so she is grinding weaponsmithing with unenchanted lq tools she made herself. Let that sink in for a moment and then complain to me that you cant make your own enchanted tools. First world problems.
  18. The reason for this is because anatomically correct armor based on gender was not a thing. Armor was not made to look good, but to protect. Furthermore sidesaddle riding may look pretty, but try staying in your saddle when a horse is going on a full gallop while seating like that. It won't go well.
  19. Can we have a discussion about changes like these BEFORE an announcement is made? Is not the first time something like this happens forcing players to make decisions that they later can't take back. If anyone would had asked we would have loudly told you guys this was a bad idea. Lets not do it again please.
  20. +1 This was discussed to hell and back in the pvp thread Darklords started. This was decided before launch and touted as one of the benefits of playing in the new servers, so a lot of us came over and invested money into this cluster for this reason. Then the dev team turns around and pulls the rug from under our feet without even a discussion? This is a clear case of bait and switch. You killed sleep bonus regen from portals, nerfed linking and now are killing separate faith, all within less than a month from launch. What's next? Shared meditation paths? Linking travel via boat? Eliminating kingdom crowns? Instituting old school HotA? Comeon guys...
  21. No it wasnt a placebo effect. Any blacklighter could tell you that. When you keep failing to tame hellhorses at 70 skill, its a thing. But anyways, @Oblivionnreaverfound the patch notes. Thanks Oblivionn!
  22. If we can find out when Dreadnaught Dynasty disbanded, we could cross-reference it with the patch notes from that time. I believe I was in DD when the announcement was made that the taming nerf was removed. I am positive this was not a thing anymore. The nerf was very significant and it was no longer applicable when I was in HotS Epic, so I am sure it was removed.
  23. Libila followers are generally less successful when taming animals. I cant point to the patch note but I am 99% sure this was patched a very long time ago (couple years) during one of the priest balances. Would be worth looking into.
  24. Due to problems with visitors and extensive violation of the established rules, Alliance leadership has decided to close the sermons off for non alliance and invitees only. If you are interested in joining sermons, contact Ztrack on game for an invite. Sermons might be reopened again in the future, but at this time it is not working out. Thank you for those of you who participated and see you around! Please lock this thread.
