== Description ==
A fairly large wagon designed to be dragged by four animals.

== Subcomponents ==
* 2x [[small wheel axle]]s
** 4x [[small wheel]]s
*** 12x [[plank]]s
*** 8x [[shaft]]s
** 2x [[shaft]]s

=== Total Materials ===
* 14 [[shaft]]s
* 33 [[plank]]s
* 10 [[small nails]]
* 2 [[yoke]]s
* 2 [[cotton sheet|sheets]]

== Useful capacity quantities ==

The capacity of a wagon can be adjusted by stacking other [[container]]s, such as [[large crate]]s, inside. Up to 9 large crates or 16 small crates can be [[Load_cargo|loaded]] on a wagon.

(9 crates takes 15552 (1728 * 9) which leaves 448 volume remaining.)

* A Wagon holds 16000 units of [[Volume]].

== Notes ==
*A wagon cannot carry passengers, only one driver.
*At least 40 fine carpentry is required to create as well as to continue building a wagon.
*Last wood piece determines wood type.
*Wagons can hold 16 small crates or 9 large crates.
*[[Bison]]s have a speed bonus when dragging wagons making them faster than [[horse]]s when hitched to a wagon.
*Can be secured with a small or large [[padlock]].
*21 [[mind logic]] is needed to command it
*23 [[Body Strength]] is needed to use the [[load cargo]] function
*Plank quality effects creation chance. The QL of additional components plays a major role in the attach chance, especially at lower fine carpentry skill levels.
*At 50 fine carpentry skill, with a 25.97ql plank, the creation chance was 9%. At 50 fine carpentry skill, with a 45.56ql plank, the creation chance was 19%.
*At 40 fine carpentry skill, with a 20.76ql plank, the creation chance was 0%. With a 31.20ql or 32.84ql plank and the same skill level, the creation chance was 8%. With a 46.82ql plank, the creation chance was 13%.
*Can't be dragged (needs animals hitched to it to drive).
*Requires at least 2 animals hitched to move.
*Wagons created in the various [[kingdom]]s will display the colors specific to each kingdom similar to [[Kingdom_banner]]s.
*Can be [[load]]ed into all [[ship]]s larger than [[Small sailing boat]] with the exception of a Cog.
*Requires the equivalent of approximately 39 large crates of space to be loaded.

== Loadable Items ==
(not all currently listed)
Note: You must be embarked as commander in order to be able to load things. Right click them and load them.

* [[Bed]]
* [[Bulk storage bin]]

Bridges

Andobi: /* Bridge Warnings and Possible Solutions */

Solid objects built to safely cross rivers or from ground to house, house to house.

== Survey ==

Survey will give you information on where the other character is standing regarding distance, direction and height difference.

To survey for a bridge two characters are needed. One character must carry a [[range pole]], the other a [[dioptra]]. The lowest quality of the two items determines how long a bridge is that you can survey.'

The character with the range pole does not have to do much besides holding the range pole. To do this activate the range pole, click the ground and select ''Hold'' from the menu. When the action timer starts face the character with the dioptra.

The character with the dioptra will do the actual survey. Activate the dioptra, right click the player holding the range pole and select ''Survey'' from the menu.

The planning process will print messages in the event log

You carefully place the dioptra on its tripod in front of you.
You make sure the dioptra is level.
You point the dioptra at <other player>.
You wave at <other player>.
You line up the dioptra with <other player>.
You look through the dioptra.
You focus on the range pole.
You read the graduations on the range pole and work out the height difference.
<other player> is <x> tiles <direction> of you. Also you appear to be <x> dirt higher than <other player>.
You stop surveying.
You pack up the dioptra.

== Building ==

To plan a bridge two characters are needed. One character must carry a [[range pole]], the other a [[dioptra]].

The character with the range pole does not have to do much besides holding the range pole. To do this activate the range pole, click the ground and select ''Hold'' from the menu. When the action timer starts face the character with the dioptra.

The character with the dioptra will do the actuall bridge planning. Activate the dioptra, right click the player holding the range pole and select ''Plan bridge'' from the menu. Standing right in front of the other character will create a 1 tile wide bridge. Standing at an offset will create bridges multiple tiles wide.

The planning process will print messages in the event log

You carefully place the dioptra on its tripod in front of you.

You check for clearance between the bridge ends.
You check for protruding foliage.
You check for nearby cave entrances and any lava.
You check for any items in the way.
You check that you have permissions to build the bridge.
You check for any bridges that may interfere with this bridge.
You check there would be no buildings under this bridge.
You work out the styles of bridges that would fit.
You start working out the bridge components required.
Planned bridge area is <x> tiles long and <y> tile wide.
(23:ESabFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFBASE)
You stop surveying.
You pack up the dioptra.

When all requirements are met you are presented with list of possible bridges.

[[Image:Bridge_Choices.png]]

The selection depends on planned width, length, height difference and clearance below the planned bridge.

If you have choosen a flat bridge that is longer than 5 tiles then you have the possibility to change the schematic of your bridge plan.

When you have choosen a type of bridge you can name the planned bridge and select the steepness of the bridge if you've choosen an arched bridge.

[[Image:Bridge_Name_Steepness.png]]

After clicking ''Finalize'' a wooden frame for the bridge is constructed.

For each tile of the bridge a bridge segment has to be completed in multiple stages. Those are 'abutments' for the out segments, 'bracing' and 'floating' for stone bridges and 'crown' for rope and wood bridges.

Until the bridge has been completed no other bridge can be started by the character.

== Bridge Warnings and Possible Solutions ==
'''Your end of the bridge is too close to the water level!'''
*Both ends of the bridge need to be 10 dirts higher than water level.

'''"The quality of the [[dioptra]] makes it too hard to work out the distance." or "You can't read the graduations on the [[range pole]] at this distance".'''
*Improve both items. Note that the lowest QL of the two will determine the max length of bridge you can plan.

'''You notice that there is not enough clearance for a bridge to be built here.'''
*Remove trees, houses, fences at both end tiles where the bridge should have enough drop off.

'''There are some terrains nearby'''
*A cave entrance is one factor. Make sure to build the bridge at least 2 tiles away from the opening.

'''The (East) tile border in front of you must be level.'''
*Level the tile borders where the bridge will connect.

'''Some terrain is in the way!'''
*Possible solution: lower any tiles that height-wise are near the span of the bridge.

== Building ==

To plan a bridge two characters are needed. One character must carry a [[range pole]], the other a [[dioptra]].

The character with the range pole does not have to do much besides holding the range pole. To do this activate the range pole, click the ground and select ''Hold'' from the menu. When the action timer starts face the character with the dioptra.

The character with the dioptra will do the actuall bridge planning. Activate the dioptra, right click the player holding the range pole and select ''Plan bridge'' from the menu. Standing right in front of the other character will create a 1 tile wide bridge. Standing at an offset will create bridges multiple tiles wide.

The planning process will print messages in the event log

You carefully place the dioptra on its tripod in front of you.

When all requirements are met you are presented with list of possible bridges.

[[Image:Bridge_Choices.png]]

The selection depends on planned width, length, height difference and clearance below the planned bridge.

If you have choosen a flat bridge that is longer than 5 tiles then you have the possibility to change the schematic of your bridge plan.

When you have choosen a type of bridge you can name the planned bridge and select the steepness of the bridge if you've choosen an arched bridge.

[[Image:Bridge_Name_Steepness.png]]

After clicking ''Finalize'' a wooden frame for the bridge is constructed.

For each tile of the bridge a bridge segment has to be completed in multiple stages. Those are 'abutments' for the out segments, 'bracing' and 'floating' for stone bridges and 'crown' for rope and wood bridges.

Until the bridge has been completed no other bridge can be started by the character.

== Bridge Warnings and Possible Solutions ==
'''Your end of the bridge is too close to the water level!'''
*Both ends of the bridge need to be 10 dirts higher than water level.

'''"The quality of the [[dioptra]] makes it too hard to work out the distance." or "You can't read the graduations on the [[range pole]] at this distance".'''
*Improve both items. Note that the lowest QL of the two will determine the max length of bridge you can plan.

'''You notice that there is not enough clearance for a bridge to be built here.'''
*Remove trees, houses, fences at both end tiles where the bridge should have enough drop off.

'''There are some terrains nearby'''
*A cave entrance is one factor. Make sure to build the bridge at least 2 tiles away from the opening.

Wound

2015-06-11T19:14:05Z

Andobi: /* Wound Types */ - updated with water wound time after experiencing this

A character can suffer '''wounds''' or '''injuries''' from creature attacks (and player attacks on PvP servers) as well as falling, [[thorn]]s, drowning, and other mishaps. Wounds are shown under the affected body part in the player's [[inventory window]] under the expanded "body" tab. Pets and other creatures can also suffer wounds, but only from combat. Wounds on creatures can be examined by right-clicking the creature and selecting look > equipment from the options.

Medium, bad, and severe wounds will need treatment.
Bandaged medium wounds heal on their own again but very slow and maybe only below 25%, need further investigation.

Head injuries cause your characters to have minor concussion effects (lowering the effective level of mind logic). For example for a person who has the ability to queue 3 extra actions, a light bruise to the head can cause the number of extra actions queuable to be reduced.

==Wound Severity==
Wounds vary in damage, and the severity of wounds is based on the size of the wound as a fraction of the character's or creature's total health. Wound severity is one of the main factors determining how fast a wound will heal or worsen. Healing/worsening happens at a healing tick which occurs every 10 minutes after the wound was suffered.

* [[Wound:Very light|Very light]]. 0-5% damage. These wounds will naturally heal at 10 health points (HP) each healing tick (5 points of damage for a basic character).
* [[Wound:Light|Light]]. 5-15% damage. Light wounds naturally heal at 8 HP/tick (4 points of damage for basic character).
* [[Wound:Medium|Medium]]. 15-30% damage. Medium wounds will not heal without treatment. If the wound has an infection or the character is underfed, a medium wound may worsen to bad.
* [[Wound:Bad|Bad]]. 30-45% damage. Bad wounds naturally worsen at 8 HP/tick, so a character with such a wound must be treated or the wound will turn into a severe.
* [[Wound:Severe|Severe]]. 45% and up. Severe wounds worsen at 10 HP/tick. They must be treated or the wound will worsen until the character dies.

==Wound Types==
Each wound is displayed with its type, which is usually related to how the wound was suffered. Wound type will allow or prohibit what healing may be used. Wounds can generally be treated with bandaging, healing covers, or spells and exceptions are noted below.
* Bite. Inflicted by many animal, bites are treated normally.
* Bruise. Inflicted by mauls and clubs, or by many animal attacks. In addition to normal treatments, bruises may also be treated with [[farmer's salve]].
* Burn. Inflicted by lava and lava creatures, burns can also be inflicted with some enchanted weapons. Treated normally.
* Cut. Inflicted by sharp weapons such as axes and treated normally.
* Hole. Inflicted by stabbing weapons and similar animal attacks. Treated normally.
* Water. Suffered when character begins drowning (moving in water after stamina is gone), all water damage will stack as a single wound. It can only be treated by getting out of the water and waiting a short amount of time (approximately 10 minutes), or by magical healing.
* [[Poison]]. Inflicted by specially enchanted weapons or similar magical effects. Poison wounds can only be treated with [[healing cover]]s, [[farmer's salve]] and magical healing.
* Infection. Inflicted by specially enchanted weapons or similar magical effects. Infected wounds may worsen more rapidly (or heal slower), but can be treated normally.
* Internal. Inflicted by [[drakespirit]]. Can be healed with [[farmer's salve]], [[healing covers]] and by healing spells ([[Fo]] [[priest]]).

Drown

2015-06-11T19:13:17Z

Andobi: Updated time to heal water wounds

'''Drowning''' is when a [[player]] reaches zero [[Body stamina|stamina]] while swimming (on [[water tile]]s). Drowning will incur a stacking [[Wound:Light|light wound]] at random intervals (20-50 sec) on the player's stomach while they continue to swim with zero stamina.

Drowning [[damage]] is only incurred while the player is moving; standing still in water does not cause drowning wounds.

Drowning wounds are listed as water damage and are un[[First aid|treat]]able, but they always disappear after a few minutes out of the water (approximately 10 minutes while logged in), regardless of [[:Category:Wounds|wound]] severity. Note that drowning wounds do not heal while in the water, and bad/severe wounds will get worse over time if you are stuck in the water.

Drowning damage can be prevented through use of the [[Path of Power]] bonus [[Path of Power#Elemental Immunity|Elemental Immunity]].

'''Drowning can be prevented if you can't climb out of the water due to low stamina. Try using [[Last Gasp]].'''

''Please see the [[talk:drown|talk page]] for areas of further investigation.''

Path of Knowledge

2015-04-18T17:34:06Z

Andobi: /* Intellect of the Enlightened */ - clarified that characteristics are boosted and Faith is not.

[[CDB|Main]] / [[:Category:Meditating|Meditating]]
== Description ==
The '''Path of Knowledge''' is one of the paths you can join by [[meditating]].

== Path of Knowledge tiles ==
Knowledge path tiles are usually found beside water and sand. Generally they are quite close to the shore, but some have also been found in deep waters.

You should be able to create your own knowledge path tile by flattening a low 3x3 area close to open water and creating some sand tiles near by. Once planted, test each tile to see if it's "special" as the Knowledge Tile does not have to be in the center. If the area is disturbed , the special tile may vanish, and must be recreated, and may show up in a different spot than before.

As with all paths, meditating on the tile gives the message "This is indeed a special place" after meditation is complete, and shows that you have found a special tile that belongs to a path.

== Bonus ==

==== Get Info (Level 1)====

Gained at level 4

You get the option on creatures and players. You are only able to use this option once every 18 hours.

Using the ability on a creature gives information similar to this:
You decide to classify the Adolescent fat Haltchaser using numbers.
Stamina level 65535, damage level 0.
Hunger value 36001, fat level 125, nutrition level 31.620344, thirst level 0, dominated by X, loyalty level 28.508104.
Normal stamina regen true.
Kingdom is Freedom Isles, leader is none, hitched to none.
Rank=1000, Max Rank=1000
Not busy doing anything.
Adolescent fat Haltchaser targets none, and fights none.

If somebody uses this on you, you see the event message: ''XXX evaluates you.''

==== Get Info (Level 2)====

Gained at level 7

You get the option on tiles. It tells you the direction and the distance of all the nearby hostile creatures and if they are above ground or under it. You are only able to use this option once every 18 hours.

The Aged champion troll is behind you fairly close by. Above ground.

The distances and directions are the same as listed for the [[Vynora]] spell [[Reveal creatures]].

==== Get Info (Level 3)====

Gained at level 9

You gain this option as an extension to the Level 1 ability: "You feel the skills of creatures". Since this is an extension to the Level 1 ability the same cooldown applies as well.
Using the Level 1 ability gives some additional information:

...

Server types

2014-08-02T12:55:04Z

Andobi: /* Freedom servers cluster 3 */

[[Main Page]] :: [[Server Types]]

{{disclaimer}}

== Introduction ==

Wurm currently has the following types of servers that players can access:
:*Tutorial (Also known as Golden Valley)
:*Freedom cluster 1 [[PvE]] (Independence, Deliverance, Exodus, and Celebration)
:*Freedom cluster 2 [[PvE]] (Pristine and Release)
:*Freedom cluster 1 [[PvP]] (Chaos, which used to be called Wild)
:*Epic [[PvP]] (Elevation, Desertion, Affliction, and Serenity)

'''Other servers'''

There is a [[test server]] which allows testing of new game content.

[[Astrology:Valrei|Valrei]], a moon of Wurm, has a special server on which battles between the gods take place. We mere-mortals can not visit the moon with our avatars, but we can follow these events remotely via a twitter feed and maps. Avatars on the Epic servers can assist their god by completing missions, and can potentially be rewarded for their efforts. ''See [[Scenarios]] for more information.''

Finally there is a logon server which is part of the Wurm infrastructure used to manage accounts. If this server is down, no accounts can logon to any of the other servers.

== Server travel map ==
You can sail across some server borders, depending on which cluster it belongs to. This will leave your skills and items intact. Animals cannot cross server borders.

You can use an [[Epic portal]] to travel between a Freedom cluster and the [[Epic cluster]]. Please read [[Epic portal|here]] what happens to your skills and items!

''Notes: ''
*''At this moment it is not possible to travel between Freedom cluster 1 and Freedom cluster 2. A character on Epic who has once chosen to travel to Freedom cluster 1 cannot use the Epic portal to go to Freedom cluster 2, and vice versa.''
*''Currently Pristine and Release are inaccessible by any other means than traveling to them from the tutorial.''

For an overview see the [http://wurmmapsearch.net84.net/Overmap.html Travel map].

== Server type details ==

=== Tutorial server ===

The Tutorial server (Golden Valley) is where all new accounts are created. The aim of the tutorial is to introduce the player to the game mechanics. Players may then move on from the tutorial area to any of the player servers using [[portal]]s. (Premium must be purchased to be able to move to the Elevation server.)

Premium time has no effect till the player leaves the server, as the Tutorial server only allows basic accounts. Thus skills are limited to a maximum of 20 and resource quality is also limited to 20. There are no gods or altars present on the Tutorial server.

The tutorial was built on the Golden Valley server. New players are spawned in the tutorial area and cannot leave other than through the portals to the Epic and Freedom servers. However accounts that were active before the tutorial was created are currently able to stay outside the tutorial area. These accounts are able to transfer to the other servers, but some have chosen to remain. PvP, theft, deeds, and [[guard tower]]s are not allowed on the Tutorial server.

=== Freedom servers cluster 1 ===

The entire area of each server is automatically claimed as Freedom kingdom territory, so guard towers are not required to plant deeds.

Griefing is frowned upon, and is a potentially bannable offense. [[GMs]] will police these servers as needed, but ideally the game rules should take care of things automatically. Moderators police the kingdom chat channels to ensure the chat rules are followed.

The original Freedom server was Independence. The second one was Deliverance, which is situated to the south of Independence. This was followed by Exodus, to the south of Deliverance.

The old Wild server became the fourth server to join Freedom. It is now known as the Chaos server and can be accessed by sailing across the west border of any of the three servers above. However, sailing back east across the border from Chaos will only take you to Deliverance.

Later, Celebration [http://wurmonline.tumblr.com/post/24127944261/celebration-opened/ release note] was added to the south of Exodus. At this time, it is not directly connected to Chaos.

All of the freedom clusters were connected when Xanadu was opened to the east of this cluster.

=== Freedom servers cluster 2 ===

Follows Freedom servers rule set (see above). This is a new cluster starting with Pristine at the official release of Wurm Online 1.0 which wasn't connected to freedom cluster 1 for one and a half years in order to provide that total newbie feeling. The second server in this cluster was Release, which is situated to the South border of Pristine. Sailing west from either of these servers leads you to Xanadu.

=== Freedom servers cluster 3 ===

The new Freedom server of Xanadu was isolated from the other servers for a few weeks. After that, it was connected to freedom cluster 1 to the west and freedom cluster 2 to the east. Sailing west from Xanadu leads you to Deliverance and sailing east from Xanadu leads you to Release.

=== Chaos server ===

The Chaos server is a PvP enabled Freedom cluster server. It can be access by sailing west from Independence, Deliverance, or Exodus. Upon arriving here you are automatically in the Freedom Isles kingdom and can join other Player Made Kingdoms. Sailing back East to Deliverance will put you back in the Freedom Isles kingdom, while returning to Chaos will put you back to whatever kingdom you were in when you left.
Full PvP is enabled here between the Freedom Isles and Player Made Kingdoms. You can fully raid deeds, pick locks and bash things on deed.

GMs generally avoid intervening in PvP server affairs. However, excessive griefing and other violations of the game rules will be punished as appropriate.

=== Epic servers ===
Please refer to [[Epic Cluster]] for more information on these servers.

=== Test server ===
The [[test server]] exists to test large game updates before they are added to the main servers.

Meditating

2014-07-08T16:54:10Z

Andobi: /* The Basics */ - changed wording to clarify 15-20 skill and joining path

[[CDB|Main]] / [[:Category:Skills|Skills]] / [[Nature]] / '''Meditating'''

== Meditation ==
===The Basics===
To meditate, drop a [[:Category:Meditating rugs|meditation rug]] on the ground, right click it, and choose "Nature -> Meditate". Due to the flatness of the rug models, it is recommended to use them in a container you place on the ground, such as a bucket, to enable easier pickup. The earliest you can join a meditation [[Meditating#Starting_and_Following_a_Path|path]] is at 15 Meditation skill. You can leave it until 20 Meditation skill, but you will not be able to gain further skill past 20 without joining a path.

===Skill Training===
Skill can be gained on any tile but you have to move at least 10 tiles from the spot of the previous meditation. A successful meditation is completing the two minute meditation timer but you will not necessarily gain skill every time.

Below 20 meditation skill there is '''no time limit''' between skill gains. You only have to move 10 tiles between meditations. A popular method is to drop a rug on the first tile and a second rug on the 11th tile of a path and to move between the two rugs. Another one is to patrol the perimeter of an 11x11 box and to meditate each corner.

Above 20 meditation skill the chances to gain skill are limited to a few per day:

* The first 5 meditations per day need to be 30 minutes apart at least
* Every meditation past the 5th must be at least 3 hours after the previous one. The message ''You feel that it will take you a while before you are ready to meditate again'' after the 5th and any following meditation indicates the longer wait time.
* Every 24 hours after a server restart the counter is reset and you get 5 new chances immediately

Example:
: Assuming the server was restarted at 12:00 and you start meditating right away. The first 5 meditations can be done at 12:00, 12:30, 13:00, 13:30 and 14:00. The next ones must be at least 3 hours past the previous one and are available at 17:00, 20:00 and 23:00. After getting some [[sleep bonus]] you continue to meditate at 8:00 and 11:00. At 12:00, 24 hours after the server restart the first 5 meditations are available again.

You do not lose a chance nor do you get any meditation skill if you meditate before the wait time is up or if you meditate within 10 tiles of the previous meditation spot. If you are eligible to gain skill (waited long enough and moved the 10 tiles) you will use up a chance and randomly get skill meditation skill. The ratio of skill gain per tries depends on the meditation rug. At lower levels a ratio of about 50% can be reached. Around 70 meditation skill the highest ratio has been about 40%. It is possible that you don't get any skill in one or two days but if the ratio over at least 10-20 tries is way below the listed examples you should try to change the quality of the rug. The listed ratios have been reached with a rug in the range of 20-30 quality.

== Path Management and Advancement ==

=== Starting and Following a Path ===

On certain tiles, there can be a pop-up after finishing meditating that allows you to start a path. There are thought to be many paths, though some are more easily found than others.
Verified paths are:

The [[Path of Knowledge|Path of Knowledge]]

The [[Path of Power|Path of Power]]

The [[Path of Insanity|Path of Insanity]]

The [[Path of Love|Path of Love]]

The [[Path of Hate|Path of Hate]].

To join a path you need to have at least 15 meditating skill. However, even if you start a path at 15 meditating skill the meditating limitation of one meditation per 30 minutes for skill does not apply until you reach 20 skill.

Once you are on the path, a title will appear next to your name, similar to the [[champion player|champion]] title. Each step of the path brings a new title. At each step, you must wait for an increasing amount of time before you can advance to the next step on the path. Times between steps are shown in the section on Titles below. You can only follow 1 path.

The message you get to start each path seems to take the following form: "As you meditate upon these things you realize that there is a pattern of thinking that you can try to follow. If this path contains the truth or simply the figment of someone's imagination, you do not know. Nonetheless, it may pose an interesting challenge. Do you wish to embark on the philosophical journey of the path of X? If you answer yes, you will be challenged by the selected path as you visit more places like this one and mediate.". Answering yes will make you an adherent of that particular path, with the title of Uninitiated.

For the subsequent questions of each path, the dialog starts as follows: "If the path of X contains the truth or simply is the figment of someone's imagination, you do not know. Nonetheless, it poses an interesting challenge. The following question springs to mind", and is then followed by a new question with five possible [[Meditating answers|answers]].

The further along a path you are, the harder it becomes to get the question dialogs to appear. The chance to receive a question is determined by your meditation skill, and the quality/type of the rug you are using. The various rugs in order of increasing effectiveness are: [[Meditation rug]], [[Fine meditation rug]], [[Beautiful meditation rug]], and [[Exquisite meditation rug]]. '''If you fail to receive a question, you can simply keep meditating on the same special tile until you succeed; there is no need to move elsewhere or wait for 30 minutes.'''

If you get a question wrong, the delay timer resets and you must wait out the full period over again. For example if you choose wrongly on the level 4 question, you have to wait another 6 days (real time) before you can try again.

=== Leaving a Path ===

If you have chosen a path, you now have the option Nature -> Leave path. This brings up a dialog that says: "Select quit to stop following this path. The result is immediate and dramatic".

If you select Quit, you get this message: "You decide to stop pursuing the path of knowledge."

You do not lose any meditating skill if you leave your path. However, you do lose all progress in the path and any path powers you have gained.

===Path Leaders===

Once you have reached level 3 in your chosen path, you will have a new option Nature -> Path leaders. This brings up a dialog that says "You consider the local leaders of the path:". "Local" here means the server you are currently on. Once you reach level 4, your own name becomes eligible to appear on this list. You will need to be on the list to use the Light Path option for others.

===Enlightenment===

Leaders in paths are able to Enlighten others who are exactly three levels below the leader's current level. For example, a level 9 can advance a level 6 to level 7. Enough time must have passed since the student's last path advance for him to receive the question. You will not need to move or wait if the attempt fails, but multiple attempts may be necessary. There is a one minute cool-down between attempts, and a difficulty check will affect success chance (see end of this section).

Simple instructions:
*Leader activates a [[meditation rug]]
*Student types /invitations
*Leader right-clicks the student and looks for the ''Light Path'' option
*Leader repeats this attempt until the student gets the path question dialog window that we're used to seeing for path advances
*May 2013 update - there is now a one minute cool-down for enlightenment

Example of successful enlightenment: 

* Path leader:
[12:07:16] STUDENT needs to type in the command /invitations.
[12:07:27] You attempt to light the path for STUDENT.
[12:07:27] You ask STUDENT a question. she seems to think hard.
[12:07:58] STUDENT has reached the level of Goodhearted of the path of love!

* Student:
[12:07:24] You will now accept invitations to change kingdom and religion.
[12:07:27] TEACHER asks you a question.
[12:07:58] You think 'Sounds about right'
[12:07:58] Congratulations! You have now reached the level of Goodhearted of the path of love!

* Failure (Path leader). If you get those messages just retry after waiting 1 minute:
[12:07:20] You attempt to light the path for <Player>.
[12:07:20] <Player> does not grasp the question. he needs to meditate more.
* Failure (Student). If you get those messages just retry after waiting 1 minute:
<Player> asks you a very confusing question. You do not understand it and need to contemplate more.

After a path enlightenment the leader cannot do it again for 7 days.

After the v1.1 patch a new difficulty check was added:

Rolf: it's not a skill requirement per se but there's a difficulty check

Rolf: like level you try to achieve *10 or so

Rolf: increasing meditation skill will increase chances yes

Rumour suggests that a successful enlightenment requires a meditation skill of approximately 75% progress to the actual required level to path up yourself. E.g. around 27 meditating needed to be enlightened to level 7.

== Path Levels ==
''A note to further make clear the timing for path advancement:'' The information in the "Delay to reach" column refers to the time that must pass in real-life hours or days since you gained your last level in the path. Example: When you first convert to a path (represented below as 0 level), you then must wait 12 real-life hours before you can try for level 1. During that 12 hours, you may still meditate as normal for meditating skill gain (even on Path tiles). But when you meditate on a Path tile during this period, you will receive a message that says you "need to let your recent progress sink in" for some period of time before you may progress in the path.
 Meditation titles can be toggled via a check-box in the /titles command. They appear in your display name in the form of "<character name> the <meditation title>".

Ship

2014-07-07T12:29:59Z

Andobi: /* Vessel Details */

A ship is used to sail the seven seas.

Ships are made using [[ship building]], usually started by combining two [[keel section]]s.

Most ships require some [[mind logic|Mind logic]] (see [[#Vessel Details|Vessel Details]])

Note: The [[small raft]] floats, but cannot be boarded, so does not even count as a boat.

== Security ==

{{infobox|'''Important''' : Without an attached [[boat lock]] anyone can use a ship. If the ship is not [[mooring anchor|moored]] it can be dragged or pushed away.
Always lock AND moor your ships.

}}

'''***The person who finishes the ship becomes the owner.
'''***To prevent someone from stealing or finishing your unfinished boat make sure no one but you can get access by either building it in a locked cart or a small temporary house.
'''

Ownership can be transferred by the owner in the vehicle management window.

Server crossing: on '''Freedom servers''' you need to be owner of the boat to sail to another server (friends can cross as passengers provided the driver owns the boat), on '''Epic servers''' you can cross servers as friend too - the ownership transfers to the commander then.

The owner and any person with the ''Manage'' right can manage the usage permissions through a window available via the ''Manage vehicle'' menu option.

The permissions control ''drive'' (embarking as commander), ''mount'' (embarking as a passenger), ''accessing the inventory hold'' of the ship and ''managing the settings''.
Each of these rights can be granted or denied to ''all friends'', ''all villagers'' and ''everyone''. The owner always has all permissions. The settings only take affect if the ship is locked however.

The owner of the ship can attach a [[boat lock]] to it to enable permissions. The lock can be removed by everyone in posession of the key but only the owner can attach it again.

To secure a ship from drifting or being dragged or pushed away it's important to moor it with a [[mooring anchor]]. A ship can be moored by the commander and any passenger but only the commander can raise the anchor.

On [[Freedom]] ships can not be [[Lockpicking|lockpicked]]. Trying so will result in the message ''Stealing boats is punished with death penalty here. You decide not to''.

== Notes ==
*The person to attach the last piece to an unfinished ship becomes the owner when it is finished.
*Currently there are no beneficial speed results from improving the quality of a ship.
*Ships with a [[quality]] of less than 10 cannot be commanded.
*Can be transported over land using [[ship_transporter]]s.
*'''FREEDOM ONLY''' - You cannot cross a server boarder on a boat that you don't own. However, the warning message (You may not leave the server with this boat. You need to own it or be friend with the owner.) is somewhat misleading, as it implies friends can cross borders. That is incorrect at this time - the commander must be the owner.

Rare item

2014-07-05T12:43:04Z

Andobi: /* Other */

==Description==
''...This is a very rare and interesting version of the item.''

Players may occasionally succeed in creating rare, [[supreme item|supreme]] or even [[fantastic item|fantastic]] items. Tools may be faster, weapons may do more damage, and armour could protect the wearer a bit better. These special items may also be made as you improve on regular items and those rare items may again turn into a supreme or fantastic item. Constructing new items using rare materials may turn the unfinished item into a rare item. Consuming a rare material when improving has a 1/100 possibility to transfer rarity.

A "drum-roll" and visual cue appears when your chance to create or generate a rare item arises. The visual cue is a green halo which will surround the border of the screen, lasting a fraction of a second.

When rare items were introduced players were told "You get approximately 1 chance of 50% each hour to create a rare item." What this actually means to game play is unknown. The odds of creating a rare seem to be much higher than improving an item and making it rare.

14th January 2014, Rolf: There is already a chance that using rare materials transfer to the thing you create or improve. Consuming a rare material when improving has a 1/100 possibility to transfer rarity. When improving or polishing a drum roll doesn't always mean rarity. The window is 20 seconds plus up to 10 of village faith creation bonus.

[[File:rare_items.jpg]]

==Effects==
[[Sacrificing]] rare items at an [[altar]] has a high chance to provide 99% [[nutrition]], [[water]] and [[food]]. There is also a chance that sacrificing one of these items will heal you should you be wounded.

{{rare}}

===Tools===
*Rare tools timers are 0.1 seconds faster than normal tools. For example, a 57.41 ql regular [[whetstone]] had a 12 second use while a rare 57.41 ql whetstone took 11.9 seconds.
*Rare tools take 10% less damage than normal tools.
*The power of enchantments decreases less with use.
*[[Pickaxe]]s produce [[shards]]/[[ore]] of higher quality.
*[[Lockpick]]s break less often and aid picking.
*[[Fishing rod]]s receive less damage and have better odds at catching rare fish.
*[[Butchering knife|Butchering knives]] increase [[meat]] yield and meat quality. Gives a minimum of one [[meat]] even from starving creatures.
*Rare [[Small anvil]], [[Large Anvil]], [[saw]]s, [[hatchet]]s, [[rope tool]]s, and most other tools increase the quality cap (normally limited by the material quality) of products by up to 1QL. This amount goes down as the QL of the resource goes up and becomes negligible at very high QL.

===Weapons and Armor===
*Rare [[weapon]]s hit harder.
*Rare [[armor]] protects more.
*[[Arrow]]s hit harder and miss less.
*[[Bow]]s hit harder and miss less.
*[[War machines]] do more damage.

===Vehicles, Mounts and Containers===
*[[Container]]s (including boats) are harder to pick.
*[[Ships]] sail faster, still capped at their maximum. A rare ship will have an increase in speed as if there were another passenger on board.
*[[Large cart]]s move 0.72km.h faster.
*[[Horse shoe]]s improve speed. A rare horse shoe gives 0.72km.h extra gain.
*[[Saddle]]s improve speed. A rare saddle gives 0.72km.h extra speed.

===Other===
*[[Lock]]s are harder to pick.
*[[Yoyo]]s and [[Puppet]]s succeed more.
*Fires heat up faster and stay lit longer.
*[[Altar]]s receive bonuses to normal effects and alignment during prayers and sermons.
*[[Food]] provides more nutrition.
*[[Beverages|Drinks]] are more potent.
*[[Gem]]s store more [[favor]].
*[[Healing]] items give stronger effects.
*[[:Category:Signs|Signs]] allow for a few more letters to be carved.
*Rare [[rock shard]]s can create [[whetstone]]s 1 quality higher than the shard quality.
*A rare [[toolbelt]] has 1 more slot than the regular equivalent.
*Rare [[lye]] can create leather 1 quality higher than the hide. Supreme lye makes leather 3ql higher than the hide.
*Rare ores smelt into rare lumps.
*Rare [[charcoal pile]]s will produce a random number of rare [[tar]], [[ash]] and [[charcoal]].
*Rare [[Guard tower]] will spawn 1 Extra [[tower guard]] based on QL up to 5. (QL 40 gives 5 guards)
*Combining two rare [[clay]]s yields still rare clay.
*Rare [[Felled Tree]] can create logs 1 quality higher than the [[Felled Tree]] and produce a rare Log as the last to be cut from the trunk.
*Rare [[clay jar]] becomes a rare [[pottery jar]].

==Notes==
*Items have a subtle pulsating graphical effect.
*Items sometimes create their own item tree in inventory lists. Keep an eye out for those which don't!
*Some items have a chance to retain their rarity when [[Combine|combining]] with other non-rare items.
*Rare materials may not be put in a [[bulk storage bin]] or [[food storage bin]].
*All types of item can become 'rare', but not all of them have advantages coded for them.
*Using rare small iron nails does not create a rare wooden fence.
*Using a rare or supreme [[bow string]] to string a bow makes it lose the status and become a normal bow string.

Ship

2014-06-28T07:18:07Z

Andobi: /* Vessel Details */ - added max speed column

A ship is used to sail the seven seas.

Ships are made using [[ship building]], usually started by combining two [[keel section]]s.

Most ships require some [[mind logic|Mind logic]] (see [[#Vessel Details|Vessel Details]])

Note: The [[small raft]] floats, but cannot be boarded, so does not even count as a boat.

== Security ==

{{infobox|'''Important''' : Without an attached [[boat lock]] anyone can use a ship. If the ship is not [[mooring anchor|moored]] it can be dragged or pushed away.
Always lock AND moor your ships.

}}

'''***The person who finishes the ship becomes the owner.
'''***To prevent someone from stealing or finishing your unfinished boat make sure no one but you can get access by either building it in a locked cart or a small temporary house.
'''

Ownership can be transferred by the owner in the vehicle management window.

Server crossing: on '''Freedom servers''' you need to be owner of the boat to sail to another server (friends can cross as passengers provided the driver owns the boat), on '''Epic servers''' you can cross servers as friend too - the ownership transfers to the commander then.

The owner and any person with the ''Manage'' right can manage the usage permissions through a window available via the ''Manage vehicle'' menu option.

The permissions control ''drive'' (embarking as commander), ''mount'' (embarking as a passenger), ''accessing the inventory hold'' of the ship and ''managing the settings''.
Each of these rights can be granted or denied to ''all friends'', ''all villagers'' and ''everyone''. The owner always has all permissions. The settings only take affect if the ship is locked however.

The owner of the ship can attach a [[boat lock]] to it to enable permissions. The lock can be removed by everyone in posession of the key but only the owner can attach it again.

To secure a ship from drifting or being dragged or pushed away it's important to moor it with a [[mooring anchor]]. A ship can be moored by the commander and any passenger but only the commander can raise the anchor.

On [[Freedom]] ships can not be [[Lockpicking|lockpicked]]. Trying so will result in the message ''Stealing boats is punished with death penalty here. You decide not to''.

== Notes ==
*The person to attach the last piece to an unfinished ship becomes the owner when it is finished.
*Currently there are no beneficial speed results from improving the quality of a ship.
*Ships with a [[quality]] of less than 10 cannot be commanded.
*Can be transported over land using [[ship_transporter]]s.
*'''FREEDOM ONLY''' - You cannot cross a server boarder on a boat that you don't own. However, the warning message (You may not leave the server with this boat. You need to own it or be friend with the owner.) is somewhat misleading, as it implies friends can cross borders. That is incorrect at this time - the commander must be the owner.

Dye

2014-06-08T19:55:52Z

Andobi: /* Notes */ - added info about rare lumps

[[CDB|Main]] / [[:Category:Skills|Skills]] / [[Alchemy]] / [[Natural substances]] / '''{{PAGENAME}}'''

== Description==
''Dye, used to colour clothing and items with.''

'''Dye''' is made from various [[item]]s and [[water]] and is used to paint items and [[wall]]s.

== Colors ==
* '''Black''' - [[Tannin]] and [[iron lump]] (difficulty 40, hardest dye to make)
* Blue - [[Woad]]
* Green - [[Copper lump]] (minimum .8 kg)
* Red - [[Cave bug]] or [[scorpion]] [[cochineal]]
* White - [[Zinc lump]]

''Note: The more difficult colors can not be made until after having made some of the easier colors or [[healing cover]]s to gain [[natural substances]] skill. Start with green, or maybe blue.''
== Tools required ==
* Any [[container]] that can hold [[liquid]], like [[pottery jar]] or [[small bucket]]

== Items required ==
* Water
* Cochineal
* Copper lump
* Tannin and iron lump
* Woad
* Zinc lump

== Method ==
# Put appropriate item in [[inventory]].
# Put water in container.
# [[Activate]] item.
# Right-click on water in container and select ''Create > Miscellaneous > <color> dye''. You might want to put the water container in the inventory before creating the dye.

=== Ratio ===
* Black - at least 1kg of water per [[acorn]]. Produces 1kg of [[tannin]] per acorn. 1kg of tannin per 1kg of [[iron lump]]. Larger amounts of tannin and iron produce larger amounts of dye.
* Blue - at least 1kg of water per [[woad]]. Produces 1kg of dye per woad.
* Green - 1kg of water per 1kg of [[copper lump]]. Larger amounts of water and copper produce larger amounts of dye.
* Red - at least 1kg of water per [[cochineal]]. Produces 1kg of dye per cochineal.
* White - 1kg of water per 1kg of [[zinc lump]]. Larger amounts of water and zinc produce larger amounts of dye.

When using more water or tannin than metal the amount of metal determines the amount of dye produced. Sometimes a water to metal ratio that's not exactly 1:1 will only use the same amount of water as metal and leave some water in the container. You will get the message that ''Not all the dye would fit'' and the dye is lost. Therefore it is advised to use an exact 1:1 ratio.

Since combining dye results in small loss of quality it is advised to create dye from one larger piece of metal instead of many 1kg pieces.

=== Notes ===
* The dye color shows up as the color of the word "Dye".
* Resulting dye will have three color values: red, green, and blue.
* R=255 G=255 B=255 is pure white.
* Dye may be combined and the values will average out (although they will be about 2 points closer to grey across the board).
* The higher the quality is, the brighter and less grey the color will be.
* Dye's RGB values can be changed using the base material.
** Lower ql base material lowers RGB values
** Higher ql base material hightens RGB values
** To change the red value use a [[cochineal]]
** To change the green value use a [[copper lump]]
** To change the blue value use [[woad]]
** Cannot improve all values with [[zinc lump]] (white)
* The amount of water used does not seem to affect creation chance or resulting QL or RGB value.
* Dye and water cannot be mixed to make a paler dye.
* When making dye with metal lumps, there is no need to [[heat]] them up first.
* The [[quality]] of the cochineal does not affect the success chance when creating red dye.
* If [[failing]] to make green dye the mass of the copper lump is decreased by 0.1.
* If [[failing]] to make red dye the quality of the [[cochineal]] is reduced by 0.5 quantity of water is reduced by 0.1.
* If [[failing]] to make blue the [[woad]] is <s>destroyed</s> reduced in quality by 0.5
* If [[failing]] to make black dye the weight of the iron lump is decreased by 0.1 and the volume of tannin is decreased by 0.1
* To get rid of unwanted dye, just right-click and select ''Pour'' - don't worry, it won't leave a stain.
* Black dye has little effect on a light source (No black light) and only dims the light a little. And it doesn`t dim light sources around it.
** Testing reveals ''An excellent black dye (R=12 B=12 G=13) on a 45ql lantern light looks the same as a 40ql no dye lantern and a little dimmer than a 43ql white dyed lantern.''
* A 2.5ql rare copper lump produced a 3.5ql dye

==Usage==
# Activate dye.
# Right-click on item and select 'Paint'.

Paintable items include: building walls, chests, barrels, buckets, signs, carts, catapults, pottery, lanterns, statues, and boats.

The amount of dye used depends on the item being painted:

Rare item

2014-06-01T12:23:59Z

Andobi: /* Other */

==Description==
''...This is a very rare and interesting version of the item.''

Players may occasionally succeed in creating rare, [[supreme item|supreme]] or even [[fantastic item|fantastic]] items. Tools may be faster, weapons may do more damage, and armour could protect the wearer a bit better. These special items may also be made as you improve on regular items and those rare items may again turn into a supreme or fantastic item. Constructing new items using rare materials may turn the unfinished item into a rare item. Consuming a rare material when improving has a 1/100 possibility to transfer rarity.

A "drum-roll" and visual cue appears when your chance to create or generate a rare item arises. The visual cue is a green halo which will surround the border of the screen, lasting a fraction of a second.

When rare items were introduced players were told "You get approximately 1 chance of 50% each hour to create a rare item." What this actually means to game play is unknown. The odds of creating a rare seem to be much higher than improving an item and making it rare.

14th January 2014, Rolf: There is already a chance that using rare materials transfer to the thing you create or improve. Consuming a rare material when improving has a 1/100 possibility to transfer rarity. When improving or polishing a drum roll doesn't always mean rarity. The window is 20 seconds plus up to 10 of village faith creation bonus.

[[File:rare_items.jpg]]

==Effects==
[[Sacrificing]] rare items at an [[altar]] has a high chance to provide 99% [[nutrition]], [[water]] and [[food]]. There is also a chance that sacrificing one of these items will heal you should you be wounded.

{{rare}}

===Tools===
*Rare tools timers are 0.1 seconds faster than normal tools. For example, a 57.41 ql regular [[whetstone]] had a 12 second use while a rare 57.41 ql whetstone took 11.9 seconds.
*Rare tools take 10% less damage than normal tools.
*The power of enchantments decreases less with use.
*[[Pickaxe]]s produce [[shards]]/[[ore]] of higher quality.
*[[Lockpick]]s break less often and aid picking.
*[[Fishing rod]]s receive less damage and have better odds at catching rare fish.
*[[Butchering knife|Butchering knives]] increase [[meat]] yield and meat quality. Gives a minimum of one [[meat]] even from starving creatures.
*Rare [[Small anvil]], [[Large Anvil]], [[saw]]s, [[hatchet]]s, [[rope tool]]s, and most other tools increase the quality cap (normally limited by the material quality) of products by up to 1QL. This amount goes down as the QL of the resource goes up and becomes negligible at very high QL.

===Weapons and Armor===
*Rare [[weapon]]s hit harder.
*Rare [[armor]] protects more.
*[[Arrow]]s hit harder and miss less.
*[[Bow]]s hit harder and miss less.
*[[War machines]] do more damage.

===Vehicles, Mounts and Containers===
*[[Container]]s (including boats) are harder to pick.
*[[Ships]] sail faster, still capped at their maximum. A rare ship will have an increase in speed as if there were another passenger on board.
*[[Large cart]]s move faster.
*[[Horse shoe]]s improve speed. A rare horse shoe gives 0.72km.h extra gain.
*[[Saddle]]s improve speed. A rare saddle gives 0.72km.h extra speed.

===Other===
*[[Lock]]s are harder to pick.
*[[Yoyo]]s and [[Puppet]]s succeed more.
*Fires heat up faster and stay lit longer.
*[[Altar]]s receive bonuses to normal effects and alignment during prayers and sermons.
*[[Food]] provides more nutrition.
*[[Beverages|Drinks]] are more potent.
*[[Gem]]s store more [[favor]].
*[[Healing]] items give stronger effects.
*[[:Category:Signs|Signs]] allow for a few more letters to be carved.
*Rare [[rock shard]]s can create [[whetstone]]s 1 quality higher than the shard quality.
*A rare [[toolbelt]] has 1 more slot than the regular equivalent.
*Rare [[lye]] can create leather 1 quality higher than the hide.
*Rare ores smelt into rare lumps.
*Rare [[charcoal pile]]s will produce a random number of rare [[tar]], [[ash]] and [[charcoal]].
*Rare [[Guard tower]] will spawn 1 Extra [[tower guard]] based on QL up to 5. (QL 40 gives 5 guards)
*Combining two rare [[clay]]s yields still rare clay.
*Rare [[Felled Tree]] can create logs 1 quality higher than the [[Felled Tree]] and produce a rare Log as the last to be cut from the trunk.
*Rare [[clay jar]] becomes a rare [[pottery jar]].

==Notes==
*Items have a subtle pulsating graphical effect.
*Items sometimes create their own item tree in inventory lists. Keep an eye out for those which don't!
*Some items have a chance to retain their rarity when [[Combine|combining]] with other non-rare items.
*Rare materials may not be put in a [[bulk storage bin]] or [[food storage bin]].
*All types of item can become 'rare', but not all of them have advantages coded for them.
*Using rare small iron nails does not create a rare wooden fence.
*Using a rare or supreme [[bow string]] to string a bow makes it lose the status and become a normal bow string.

== Description ==
''An oven made from stone bricks and clay intended for cooking and baking.''

A stone '''oven''' is a fire container best suited for [[cooking]] and [[baking]], but can also be used to heat up [[ore]] (NB: the QL of the lump will be lower than the ore QL), make [[pottery]] and so on, like [[campfire]] and [[forge]].

== Creating ==
* [[Activate]] the [[stone brick]], right-click the [[clay]], and select '''Create''' > '''Containers''' > '''Oven'''.
* To start, use a normal sized (2 kg) lump of clay, not a combined piece, because it will take the whole lot. However, to continue the oven, a combined piece of clay can be used; it will only take what it needs at a time.
* The stone brick and clay used to start the oven are damaged if the attempt fails.

== Improving ==
* Activate a [[rock shards]] from your [[inventory]], right-click the oven, and select 'Improve'
* Or activate a [[stone chisel]] and 'Chip'.

The [[quality]] of the oven will affect the duration of the [[fuel]]: the higher the quality, the longer fuel lasts. The higher the quality of the oven, the faster items [[heat]] up, too.

{{rare}}
Ovens with rare properties heat up contained items more quickly than their regular counterparts and have been claimed to stay lit longer and cook food items faster.

== Notes ==
* Oven adds less difficulty to meals than forge, so it is better suited for cooking at low skills.
* Iron [[cauldron]] now fits inside an oven.

== Description ==
[[Vynora]] spell available to [[priest/priestess]] at 30 [[faith]]. It uses 29 [[favor]].

Mend reduces the damage of an item by 20 and the QL by 2. You can repair some items that normally cannot be repaired. There are still some items that cannot be mended like meals, fish or pottery.

== Can be mended ==
* [[Whetstone]]s
* [[Pelt]]s
* [[Logs]]
* [[Lump]]s

== Cannot be mended ==
* [[Meals]]
* [[Fish]]
* [[Pottery]] items
* [[Small magical chest]]

You cannot cast mend on items of QL 2 or less. Instead you'll get an error message saying that the item "would break under the power of the spell".

Mend does not shatter items on failure.

== Method ==
# [[Activate]] a [[statuette of Vynora]]
# Right-click a item
# Select ''Spells'' > ''Mend''

[[CDB|Main]] / [[:Category:Items|Items]] / [[:Category:Structures|Structures]] / '''Roofs'''

These are the types of roofs you can build on your house.

You have to create a floor plan below you before you can build a roof on any level other than the ground floor. Do this by using a hammer/mallet on a floor and Plan>Floor below, then Plan>Roof.

It can be fiddly to plan a new wall on a tile which has a completed roof structure adjacent. This is due to the model for the roof overlapping the border tile and making it difficult to be selected.

Egg

2014-05-26T16:28:16Z

Andobi: /* Notes */

[[CDB|Main]] / [[Skills]] / [[Cooking]] / '''{{PAGENAME}}'''

== Description ==
''A white egg from a bird.''

A small '''egg''' laid by a [[hen]] which can be eaten raw or used in [[cooking]] or let hatch into a [[chicken]].

== Usage ==
If eggs are left outside on the ground or in a container, they will [[decay]]. When they have fully decayed, a chicken may hatch.

Experiments (Gold 2 map - Nov 07 on the Jenn-Kellon Home server) suggest only 10% of eggs will hatch into chicks, though this percentage likely varies based on creature populations. Having only one egg per tile may increase chances.

Eggs will take approximately 30 [[day]]s to hatch if left in your [[inventory]].

Eggs also contain the unusual nondestructive ability to be "sucked", as right-clicking on an egg gives the option to ''Suck Egg''. It will give you a weird feeling. This option is only available if you have no item active.

== Notes ==
* Eggs weigh 0.10 and are always [[quality]] 99, although the damage increases with time.
* Renaming the egg sets the name for the hatched chick.
* The hatched chick will appear below you on the ground floor if you are on a higher floor at the time of hatching.

Mining warnings

2014-05-26T16:17:37Z

Andobi: /* Preventative messages */

{{Main|Mining}}

Under some circumstances a warning message will appear in the events window while mining or [[tunnel]]ling to inform the player that they are either unable to continue on the current tile or that continuing may cause unusual effects.

==Informational messages==
These messages do not prevent mining but inform the player of the result of their actions should mining continue. These may be intentional or otherwise.

; The cave walls sound hollow. : Appears when mining into another shaft and the height difference is not dangerous.

==Preventative messages==
Mining will be no longer possible when receiving one of the following messages.
[[Image:Sideshaft.png|frame|right|Side shaft]]

; The cave walls sound hollow. A dangerous side shaft could emerge. [The cave shudders from some imbalance.] : Occurs inside a mine. This message appears when the tile being mined shares a single corner with an existing tunnel. To continue adjacent tiles be mined out before mining can continue on this tile. See example on the right.
; Another tunnel is too close. It would collapse. : Occurs when opening a new tunnel from the surface. Caused when there is already a tunnel to the back or the sides of the entrance tile or if a tunnel is ahead but to far down to connect to.
; The cave walls look very unstable. You cannot keep mining here. : Occurs inside a mine. Happens when mining close to the top of the rock layer. The ceiling of the newly mined tile would break the rock layer. Can sometimes be avoided by mining downwards or by lowering the mine floor and thereby opening the new tile a bit lower.
; The cave walls look very unstable and dirt flows in. You would be buried alive. : Occurs inside a mine. Happens when the tile being mined will break out to the surface, but the surface is not exposed rock. To excavate it the rock on the surface must be fully exposed.
; A dangerous crack is starting to form on the floor. You will have to find another way. [The cave shudders from some imbalance.] : Caused by undermining previous tile mined above, as in a steep upwards dropshaft would be created. No fix, though mining another wall, and therefore changing tunnel direction, worked on same tile. Going from the other side down should work.
; The ground is too steep to mine at here. You need to make it more flat. : Occurs occasionally when mining the floor down. The cause is unknown.
; The ground sounds strangely hollow and brittle. You have to abandon the mining operation. : Occurs on the surface when there's already a tunnel on the tile being tunnelled, an entrance cannot be mined here.
; The topology here makes it impossible to mine in a good way. : Occurs when trying to create a mine entrance on a perfectly flat rock tile. 1 corner must be lowered with surface mining to continue. Has also been reported underground, probably when mining that tile would create a flat mine entrance. Mining downwards may work in this case.
; The mountainside would risk crumbling. You can't open a hole here. : Occurs when attempting to create a mine entrance on a rock tile that is too steep. The maximum slope is 270.
; There is no space to mine here. Clear the area first. : Occurs when the tile occupied by the player has 100 a pile of items. Clear the area.
; You fail to produce anything here. The rock is stone hard. : Occurs on the surface. This means the tile you are attempting to excavate is actually an ore vein. There's nothing to do about it, you simply have to make your entrance on another tile. Note that if you make the entrance one tile below the vein, the tunnel will open right into the vein and cannot be extended until the vein is depleted. The best course of action at this point would probably be to mine out a rock tile next to the one you get this message on.
: Happens when mining down a floor and roof is too high, Can only be fixed by collapsing all affected tiles and re-mining. (IOW. if you want the tile flat collapse it and re-mine, if you want to lower it collapse all surrounding tiles and re-mine.)
; You hear falling rocks from the other side of the wall. A deep shaft will probably emerge. : Occurs inside a mine. Caused when there is already another mine nearby, but there is too much of a height difference to connect the two mines.
; You cannot keep mining here. The rock is unusually hard. : The message displayed when one attempts to open a tunnel directly onto a vein.
; The roof sounds strangely hollow and you notice dirt flowing in, so you stop mining. : You get this when mining a ceiling too close to the surface and it is not rock.
; The water is too deep to mine here. : You get this when you are trying to mine too far under the water table.
; The roof sounds strangely hollow. You must mine the other corners if you want to create an opening.: You get this when your mining a cave ceiling and mined to outside corners height.
; You cannot reach the ceiling. : You can't mine the ceiling any higher.
; You are not allowed to mine here. : Deed permissions have disabled mining, and at least 1 spirit templar exists to uphold the law.
; The rock sounds hollow, you will need to tunnel to continue : When trying to Surface Mine above an open tile underground, and you are already at the ceiling height of the mine.
; The rock is too hard to mine. : You have tried to mine into a reinforced tile or more rarely, happens with stacked action when the wall breaks before you run out of actions (ie trying to mine thin air).
; You are too unskilled to mine here. : You have tried to surface mine higher than your skill allows. Freedom Formula: 3 x Mining Skill. Epic Formula: 1 x Mining Skill (Not-curved).
; An altar of (deity) on the surface disturbs your operation. : You get this warning when an altar is directly above the tile you are trying to mine (possibly near the entrance?). Push the altar to another tile.

Body stamina

2014-05-26T15:07:34Z

Andobi: /* Actions that ignore stamina */

[[Main Page]] / [[Characteristics]] / [[Body]] / '''{{PAGENAME}}'''

Body stamina reflects how much stamina you can have in your stamina bar. It is represented by a green bar in the [[HUD]] and never is higher than your [[health]]. Body Stamina can be gained by woodcutting, digging, mining and milling on the Freedom cluster. On the Epic cluster, only woodcutting and milling give body stamina.

Having higher stamina means you can do more fatiguing actions before becoming exhausted. Stamina is what you use for almost every action in Wurm. An action started with less than full stamina will take longer than if the stamina bar was filled.

== Stamina Regeneration ==

Some actions take up more stamina than others, but stamina is regained according to your [[water|thirst]] and [[food]] bars.

:* The water bar affects Stamina regen noticeably at 80%
:* The food bar affects Stamina regen noticeably at 25%

'''One of the main reasons for stamina not regenerating is forgetting to turn off climbing.'''

== Actions that ignore stamina ==

These actions require the same time at any stamina level. These actions typically don't reduce your stamina either.

* [[Fishing]]
* [[Botanizing]]
* Chopping up [[felled tree]]s (drains stamina)
* [[Meat_filet|Filleting]] meat/fish
* [[Flattening]] (drains stamina, aborts with no stamina)
* [[Foraging]]
* Mixing [[healing cover]]s
* [[Praying]]
* [[Prospecting]] (drains stamina)
* [[Repairing]]
* Sowing (drains very little stamina)
* [[Meditation]]
* [[Channeling]]
* (more...)

== Warning ==
If you run out of stamina while in the water, you will start to [[drown]].

If you run out of stamina in combat it becomes very hard to escape.

If you run out of stamina whilst climbing, you will cease climbing and fall.

Channeling

2014-05-26T04:32:28Z

Andobi: /* Tips for early skilling */

[[CDB|Main]] / [[Religion]] / '''{{PAGENAME}}'''

[[Channeling]] is the [[skill]] used in the casting of [[:Category:Spells|spells]] in order to enchant [[item]]s. You will need to be a [[priest]] and have your god's [[statuette]] activated in order to channel. Channeling uses [[favor]].

The mechanism of casting takes into account a number of factors. When a cast is made your
* channeling skill
* [[alignment]]
* [[soul depth]] and
* spell difficulty are used to generate a result. This result can be successful or unsuccessful. As your skills and attributes improve the chance and degree of an unsuccessful cast will be reduced but never completely removed.

If the spell casting succeeded a power rating is generated, if it is a spell that has a power rating.

== Spell casting ==
When you cast a spell on an item there are several possible outcomes. The messages given are different depending on item and spell, so here are some general things that happen to various items.

Successful attempts:
* You succeed to cast the spell and full favor for the spell is drained
* You succeed and the item is updated with a higher power rating than it had before, full favor for the spell is drained
* You succeed to cast the spell, but you frown since the power rating was lower than the previous, full favor for the spell is drained

Unsuccessful attempts:
* The item gives a resonating sound but stays intact, a small amount of favor is drained
* The item gives a resonating sound and takes some damage, a small amount of favor is drained
* The item is shattered, a small amount of favor is drained

=== Casting mechanics ===

The successful casts have a value of 0 or higher, and the unsuccessful a negative value. If the absolute value of the unsuccessful cast is lower than a third of the QL of the item then nothing happens. If the cast falls between one third of the QL and the QL then the item takes damage. If the absolute value of the unsuccessful cast is higher than the QL of the item it is shattered. Higher QL items are therefore less likely to shatter than low QL ones.

Some examples of how it works:
* A 30QL item will shatter if the power of the cast is worse than -30 and take damage if the power is worse than -10
* A 30QL item will remain unharmed if the power of the cast is -9 or higher
* A 90QL item will shatter only if the cast is worse than -90 and take damage starting at a power of -30
* A 90QL item will remain unharmed if the power of the cast is -29 or higher

The absolute range of power generated is not actually known, but from observations it is seen to range from at least -250 to + 103. At low skill levels on harder spells it is quite easy to get higher negative casts and unless you use higher quality items you can shatter a significant portion of the items being cast on. As you raise your skills and attributes you will be able to see the median moving.

An important note is that the system is such that it is impossible to guarantee that an item being cast on will not shatter. At higher skills with higher quality items it will be very unlikely but it cannot be ruled out even then.

== Notes ==
* The QL, enchantments and rarity status of a statuette are not known to affect success chance when casting

== Tips for early skilling ==
* Fo priests should concentrate on [[Bless]]ing, [[Morning Fog]], [[healing]] and enchanting [[Pottery flask|flask]]s of [[water]] with [[Fo's Touch]].
* Vynora priests should bless things until 15 channeling, then [[Opulence]] [[meal]]s/food items until 40 channeling (The quality of the food affects the chance to successfully cast Opulence, so a high [[quality]] food results in less fails), then use either [[Vynora's Hand]] on flasks of water or the various item augmentations ([[Circle of Cunning]], [[Wind of Ages]], [[Frostbrand]] etc)
* Magranon priests should [[Bless]] objects and make [[Light token]] until 10 channeling, then enchant water with [[Magranon's Shield]] (in a [[flask]] for example). Once they reach 41 [[faith]] they should cast [[Dominate]] on [[Scorpion]]s or [[Lava fiend]]s. If you fail it only uses 1.5 favor and you still get the full tick.
* Libila priests should bless objects until 5 channeling, then use the drain spells on a penned animal until 15 channeling, then enchant flasks of water with [[Libila's Scale]]
* Priests whom do not worship Fo should not use buff spells to gain experience (such as [[Sixth Sense]]), as they yield significantly less skill when compared to enchantment spells such as [[Opulence]] or [[Bless]].
* If you absolutely must use a buff spell for skilling for whatever reason, do not cast it on your own body as this will further reduce the skillgain. Use a penned animal or another player instead.

Example skill gain:
Vyn priest Channeling 51.87, no sleep bonus
* [[Opulence]] on meal: +0.0159
* [[Vynora's Hand]] on water in flask: +0.0119
* [[Vessel]] on gem under 10ql: +0.0119
* [[Frostbrand]] on sword: +0.00794
* Opulence again on meal: +0.00795

[http://forum.wurmonline.com/index.php?/topic/66829-skill-grind-spoilers/page-2 Warlander's method] for efficient use of gems:

:I have two satchels: in first satchel I am storing gems ql 10>, in the second gems ql <10.

# Prepare max favor
# Activate sleep bonus
# Vessel as many low ql gems as you can.
# When you run out of favor, wait until you have about 7,50 favor and enchant high ql gem as fast as you can.
# Repeat until all high ql gems are vesseled.
# Drain favor from high ql gems, starting with lowest ql gems, make this until you have full or almost full favor.
# Put ql <10 gems from high ql gems satchel to low ql gems satchel.
# Repeat from point 3 until you have low ql gems.

:Alternatively, if you don't have low ql gems you can cast enchants instead. This method guarantees very good skillgain and long lifetime of your gems at the same time (so you can grind channeling even more).
