Posted June 19, 2014 First days of Xanadu I kept running across corpses 5 tiles into lakes and bays with a brown bear a few tiles away. Can't escape the bear shark, just gotta take your lumps if you can't watch your stamina. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Can't escape the bear shark, just gotta take your lumps if you can't watch your stamina. Rule I learned back in MMOs during the late 90s was -- always die on a road. You are likely going to die anyway, probably everything precious to you ingame will drop on your corpse, so you don't try to survive -- you only try to drop your corpse in a place you can find it later (plus get to it safely). Roads are best for this so if something is after you, spend every dying effort just trying to reach a road. I still do this in Wurm today. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted June 20, 2014 Rule I learned back in MMOs during the late 90s was -- always die on a road. Yep, somebody was hunting for their corpse yesterday and I suggested that next time, when they know they're toast, that they spend their remaining moments getting to a clearing and get their bearings so they don't have to play where's my stuff later.
