Posted April 12, 2016 (edited) Here's an idea, what do my fellow Wurmians think about skeletal statues? For example, when you kill mobs they drop regular small bones, large bones, skull, spine, rib cage not all at once just after killing many of the same type. After you accumulate a set amount of required bones you can create a skeletal statue of said mob. Kinda like the ones we have in science class of human skeletons and in museums! Wall mounts and display cases also Edited April 12, 2016 by Smwoodburn 15 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted April 12, 2016 (edited) +1 always good to have new things. but bones overall from corpses could be used for weapons, jewellery as well as gelatin which is used for cooking. Edited April 12, 2016 by shakys 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bone weapons and armor..yes please! It would be great if the bone drops required for the statue were pretty rare, so seeing one showed an accomplishment on behalf of the player who built it. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Agreed but it might turn into scale and dragon armor. Don't make them to rare because then it will be just for the elite who have the ability to take on multiple mobs at once for the best chance to get a bone. Also would they be trade-able and sell-able. Could be another thing to boost the economy. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was thinking more along the lines of studded leather equivalent...more as a cosmetic option rather than a new, better armor. The armor could be made from larger bones and the statues could require smaller, more rare bones, as well as the larger ones.

Posted April 12, 2016 I Like all these ideas! would love to see this happen and yes make them moderately rare maybe say for a bear skele statue you need 20 small bones and 10 large bones rib cage skull and spine but the small bones be the most common large bones uncommon ribcage moderately rare and skull and spine rare to find? but a separate kind of rare than the rare strange bone not in the same category and still have the rarity class for each 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't think that we need a new armor type. However, something cosmetic like a bone necklace or a bone crown or something. Maybe since the new pouldrans are coming out a bone one.

Posted April 12, 2016 pls add "uncommons" rolf this will truly make people stop leaving +1 to the general idea as a whole, especially more decoration items, I've liked the newer ones, they add nice flavor to the game. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted April 12, 2016 This would be pretty cool. Kind of a unique (and interesting) way to display trophies Would make hunting interesting, or more interesting, in that it would give people incentive to try and hunt/collect more bones of a certain type of creature 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted April 12, 2016 precisely i think it would get people out and more active and draw more attention to the game Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 5, 2017 I would like to revisit this idea, because reasons... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 28, 2017 haha thanks Mykoal i would personally really love to see many of the ideas and thoughts presented in this discussion brought forth into our game. Many great points as well. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 29, 2017 Love the decorative potential of this idea. Not so sure about the weapons. Why would a society capable of producing iron and steel weaponry rely on bones for weapons? I could maybe see having them like the troll clubs though... a goblin carrying a bone knife/axe. Just can't picture someone standing in front of a freshly smithed iron sword vs. a femur and actually choosing the femur. +1 in general though, more uses for more things is always fun. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
