  1. I have travelled all over Harmony and Cadence, everywhere I see cattle mobs, spiders, wolves, bears, trolls, etc. Maybe you arent looking for the exact biome, since each biome tend to spawn different animals.
  2. You have never been to Harmony.
  3. I will list my reasons, as someone who first started in SFI then moved to NFI: -All my friends went to NFI for a fresh start, leaving me alone. -Market is much better in NFI than in SFI, specially if you have a tight budget or are freemium like me. Yes, stuff is more expensive, but you can make lots of coin easily. In a month of map reselling I did 30s while terraforming, a friend of mine is going to sell a scale set for 7g, enough for several years of freemium, etc. -Higher density, which means more people playing, more people in local on average, more participants for rifts and slaying, plus other events like Impalongs, etc. Maybe its because I played in Xanadu, but SFI feels overall empty and dead. Not the best atmosphere to invest yourself in a videogame. Rifts last lesser. -The playerbase is younger from a Wurm perspective. There are less people with several +95 skills, less supreme/fantastic tools, scale sets, so the gap between a new player and a veteran is narrower, tho for people like me that is not a problem, but for some it is. -Maybe its because I got into a really nice alliance (Southern Harmony Alliance), but there are constantly public slayings, either drake or other uniques, all the game every month. Back in SFI there were less public slayings because of groups of people doing them private. In NFI, mostly in Harmony, there are dedicated groups to find uniques, trap them then put up the notice in forum so everybody has the chance to participate. -Since the cluster is not as old as SFI, you can find space that has never been touched, thus giving you the chance for terraforming and carrying out any project on your own, before finding an already flattenen terrain, a hollowed out mine, etc. Given that the devs wont merge the clusters any time soon, despite the requests from the playerbase (very bad decision, playerbase pay their bills and should be heard), moving to NFI is going to be the best decision. Once the merge happen you can bring your old toon, meanwhile, come and have fun with us!
  4. Welcome back! half if not most of the SFI community is in NFI, I suggest you to do the same my friends and I did: join together in NFI.
  5. Thank you for the event! I got back the tools I lost on my last adventure, everybody was super helpful and your ovens allowed me to raise 29 levels of HFC! Im going to work hard so next time I can be an imper too, and give back all the kindness you gave me this weekend Vynora blesses you all!
  6. Hi everyone! Quick story: Im a returning player from SFI, Ive been in a hiatus for a couple years and Ive forgotten many things. One of them, is never use a public vehicle with permissions for all so around March I was doing a treasure hunt on said cart, completly oblivous that any player could steal my belongings: 3 large crates with logs and stone shards, and a small barrel with many fragments of tools, weapons and statues, plus several steel and oakenwood, high botd tools from the impalong of Uthgarddavies. I dont blame the player who took my stuff, since its my fault. But as a returning player with a very tight gaming budget I would appreciate to, at least, get my tools back. Getting everything, large crates, fragments and tools (specially fragments and tools) would be really cool, since I work in game my silver and I have few. Since its my fault and we are now in May, Im willing to negotiate to get my stuff back. The area where I did the treasure hunt, and where I got my stuff taken was around Crest Hill, Dirty Deeds, A Confederancy of Dunces, Plutonia and Moons, and Persistence Point. Basically, south east Cadence. Again, sorry if this sounds like a cry, it is not. I just keep some hope of at least, getting back my tools so i can grind, my toon Tormentus is young and all my skills are low. Send me a PM if you know something.
  7. I have been away until recently, but I will try to enlighten you: -We have a second Freedom cluster called Northen Freedom islands, its more populated and not as stale and developed as SFI, so if you are thinking of starting anew, I recommend you this cluster, specially come to Harmony and join the Southern Harmony Alliance. -You can make a lot of silver in NFI, not so much in SFI. A rare metal tool in NFI can go for 12-15s easily, although rares rolls are more uncommon than in SFI. Mortar is 4s/k opposite to 2s/k in SFI. In general, you can make lots of money in NFI without using your credit card, just as I do every day. -The server dispersion says there are more players in NFI, Wurmnode says in SFI there are, by the time Im writing this, 10:37 am +0 UTC is 184 online people in NFI, and 151 in SFI. There are far more deeds in SFI, but most of them are inactive. -You cant exchange silver for euros/dollars, tho people will always find a loophole somewhere to keep up with this. I dont recommend it tho. In general, I recommend you to come back, I also had an itch for years until I finally made my decision. Just try to keep the game as a game, and dont burn out yourself because you dont take enough breaks from projects or silver-making activities, and youre fine. PM me for more details.
  8. Read the answers again. Nobody refuses helping or contacting the owner, what some of us protest about is being unable to loot a fallen deed, or feel bad about it, when it is another mechanic.
  9. Im not going to say anything different from what some players have stated. I side with the looters, if the deeds falls, its ours for the taking. You dont like it? secure it with asking a friend, dropping more money, reducing size, i dont care. Im so, so, SO done with people trying to push their own responsabilities onto others, then when they refuse they call them heartless, selfish, and whatever form of tagging their emotionally inmature brain allow them. I dont have to be responsible for YOUR deed, I dont accept it as mine, its YOURS, and if you fail to keep up with the upkeep its your fault. Im not your mother to remind you what you have to do with your own stuff, because its yours for a good reason. Now, try to develop your emotional intelligence a bit, and focus on what you can control and be accountable, its very easy to do. I have looted fallen deeds in the past, didnt care a bit what happened to the owner and I didnt have to, I already have my own problems thank you, I dont need more. That loot helped me paying premium, tools, and I even gave many things to new players that helped them inmensely, to the point they are still playing to today, after many years. Keep pointing your fingers at players that arent doing anything against the rules, because they refuse to accept YOUR responsibilities, or your playstyle. We will keep mapping all deeds and appearing to any disbanding as soon as our horses can. You dont like it? deal with it. Simple as. You could store their stuff, and yet that would go against the community. You want to know why, my dear players-with-lots-of-feelings? because that supreme forge you are hiding, made by a player that hasnt showed up in years could be used by a freemium or new player, greatly enhancing their game experience. But you care too much about a poor ex-player that quite possibly will return, like most do. And hey, I agree on the part of those people who suffer the unpredicted and cant play, Im sorry for them. Yet, I cant distinguish them from your regular quitter. Keep the looting on lads, better to use looted stuff, than letting years of gameplay to decay, just to satisfy a bunch of (possibly looters as well) old players with 0 emotional intelligence, who expects you to adapt to their rules, their playstyle and their feelings.
  10. Thanks to the people who sighted and trapped the dragon, I wish there were more people like you in this game! GG!
  11. TLDR: dont let people know when a deed has fallen, so I am the only one and I can hoard every single bit from the old owner.
  12. For all the single ladies and gentlemen out there, who feels lonely today. I hope you are alright and doing okay. You might be feeling bad today, but remember that no sorrow lasts forever, someday youll find your better half, for now focus on yourself and stay safe. Sending strenght to all my single brothers and sisters 💪
  13. M/N22 southeast of Da Harmony Inn R/S22 (close to first)
  14. I created this post to let people point out locations where there has been a deed before, so arch enthusiasts can go there, fill their journal reports and get an arch cache! Lets help each other shall we? I will start: on the southeastern most corner of the map, between the deed of Paradise, Hedhe Hog, Sunset and Hell I found clues for 3 abandoned deeds, under the names of: -Well Picked Market -Glenden Wood -A third one i dont remember but will edit this soon enough https://gyazo.com/c909ddb43d321ab62de1c74ac49458de Lets write down everybody the location with indications like "west from Tree House", "on a hill", etc we can take archeology to the next level!
  15. This was my first time at an impalong, and Ive got to say it has been one of the best times Ive ever had in Wurm! lots of nice people helping each other, fun events and I left with all types of tools, good ql and nice enchants to help in my new journey in Wurm! Im so grateful next time Im going to give materials and be an artisan to help imping stuff for other people. Good job everybody who made this true.
  16. I wish this this wonderful community a new year full of successes, better health, big skill gains and lots of strenght to get over any obstacle life puts in your way. You all are a nice lot of people and you deserve the best! Lots of love from Spain!
  17. Moonmetals seems like an uncommon item you get rewarded with, which at first it feels awesome because you can't get them on a day to day basis. However, if you want to craft with them, say a plate armor set or terraforming tools, here comes the issue: you will need tons of the material, in the right ql to not only create and imp, but also reimp after some uses, specially with armor. So whats the use of moonmetal, if the disadvantages are bigger than the advantages? An item just for people who can put lots of money (not that Im against it)?
  18. I want to give my 2 iron coins here. Im against the idea of making a change to dethrone one group or another, and I think we all agree who are both groups. Both parts provide benefits and disadvantages. If im not wrong, the pro-private slaying allow you to play a new role: the Unique hunter, which must be a lot of fun althought Ive never participated in a private before. Problem is, as they wont say a thing, the rest of the community is deprived from unique resources to also enjoy the game as well. On the other hand, public slaying allowes everybody to be able to participate, hack a couple of attacks at a monster, have some fun before killing it and enjoy the resources, but it forces you to give up all your effort at finding the mob just for the sake of colletivism (and man, do I hate collectivism). Why would I spend a lot of time on horseback searching for an unique, if Im socially alienated towards sharing the rewards of my time and energy? uniques would be left for those lucky enough to find them arbitrarily. Because of this, and given the unnecesary drama in this post, in my humble opinion the best option is to keep the system as it is, but reward both sides. How you do this, so everybody can be happy with the results? First, extra rewards should be given to the person or group of people who found the beast, I dont know what type of reward but could be an achievement, extra resources, maybe new resources, etc. Second, the more people arriving and killing the mob, the more rewards/better quality/maybe a giveaway of something cool like moonmetal, again I dont know. None of us is going to find a middle term because in ths post most people are too focused on charging against the other side, so a middle ground will benefit us all, in a individual and collective levels at the same time.
  19. I like it, we need ideas for usable things from archeology and a birchbark canoe sounds fun and original. If I may do the addition, I think more vehicles from fragments like a Roman galley which would be as fast as a knarr but maybe with more capacity, or just better than any knarr or caravel. Also, why not a defending Golem, that would stay at your deed and defend it like a guard, but free?
  20. I support more servers. They split the community, yes, but we dont care because 90% of the population wants to be left alone in their deeds, doing the 500th grind of the year without a neighbour making a huge terraforming proyect next to them. We all know of conflicts between players due to territorial issues and there is no benefit to us all to force people to live together, or even close to each other. Do you want to see Wurmians together, cooperating? ask for changing to promote village life, maybe give villagers a discount on premium time, or upkeep, I dont know, or create new events that require actual (and voluntarily) cooperation to achieve a goal and a reward, like Rifts but different. Humans will always prefer to act as a group if theres a common goal, that is basic Psychology. Also, creating new servers will provoke comeback of many players who wish to find their dream deed in a coastal area, or make a new village on virgin soil, or just more space to fulfill their misantrophic, asocial/antisocial fantasies. All motives are equally benefitial because they give devs more money to keep working on this proyect, and that will benefit us all. TLDR: stop pretending you actually want to see people in local just to complain right after because someone chopped the last oak tree, look at what worked in the past and repeat it. If this game has survived for so long, maybe creating a lot of servers wasnt a bad idea after all.
  21. Please Ether, give me some hope plz
  22. This is what I wanted to read, thats it, we are being heard. Sincerely thank you.
