Losing a Limb to Injury

[Elen 1,013]

Might be fun to add injuries that "permanently" cripple a character, and of course mitigation methods for those injuries. These would not be common injuries, but like, if you took a big hit like 75+ damage to one spot perhaps a small chance of "permanent" injury.

 

Lose an arm. Gone until regerated via magic or respawn. Effect would be can't use equipment on that arm slot and perhaps a slightly longer action timer.

Lose a leg. Same deal, gone until regenerated via magic or respawn. Effect would be much lower speed. Could make a crutch to hobble faster however.

Not looking for a game ruining effect level but noticable and hopefully graphically represented.

 

 

 

Been playing too much DF. Let fly the sling and arrows.

 

 

That bold and underline part is for the "I don't want to get crippled everytime I get hurt" guy who will post at some point.

 

TL:DR ~ I want to cut your arms off.

 

 

EDIT: Blance would require a BL spell to regen a limb I'd think... fungal regrowth ....

I don't like it.

Sorry, but in a world where not even death has permanent effects, an injury doing so would be kinda weird...

[Samool 2,004]

[Stik 453]

+1, but this wont be implemented.

[Elen 1,013]

Also, war trophy potential

Catapaulting someone's arms and legs back into their deed ....

[AlphaWolfen 160]

+1 but wont happen 

[Dextrome 123]

sounds fun to me

Well, if you die you'll get a fresh body and the permanent injury would be gone like the OP said

-1 from me, I dont think making an already slow game slower would be beneficial but here is a pic just for giggles

-1, sounds extremely horrible if something bad, permanently staying, would happen.

That's why I said +1, it's not permament.

Some people need to read before posting -1

Priest spells and some extra karma spell if you don't want to find a priest?

 

Dunno, but it'd be fun having to look for someone to actually heal you.

Now in worst cases you just go botanize something out of the ground.

 

Of course that it should be rare enough.

[Dextrome 123]

Troll gets crit hit on your sword arm.... oh dear    and as for PvP... really don't want to go there.

[Rathgar 959]

only if we can maim mobs too, you know... an eye for an eye, etc.

[Hawkstars 20]

If your gonna have priests with an ability to heal this it should be fo for WL and libilia for BL and when libilia does it make it look zombie like...

[Ecrir 887]

-1, I don't see this bit of realism actually improving the game. On the other hand I'm on the path of knowledge and don't lose anything but fs upon death, so I can just suicide if it happens without caring.

[KunAlt 844]

Big, fat -1, horrible idea, worst part is having to suicide (respawn) or hire some priest/mage/whatever to regain a functional body.

[Aeris 3,752]

Lol 75+ wounds might not be common to you, but to most newbies (and some older players) they are everyday things. Wurm already loses a fair amount of new players because the starter gear is so terribly bad, we don't need to humiliate them first as well

[Alyeska 2,621]

love it, +1

Please allow me to butcher body parts off of live people/animals if I am stealth

[18:42:18] You feel a weird tingling feeling. Someone stole your arm!
