<p>ChrisNYC: /* Hedge Materials */</p> <hr /> <div>[[CDB|Main]] / [[Skills]] / [[Forestry]] / '''{{PAGENAME}}'''<br /> <br /> {{itemM<br /> |name=Hedge<br /> |image=Hedge.jpg<br /> |active=[[Sprout]]<br /> |passive=[[Tile Border]]<br /> |groupM=Plant<br /> |materials=*4x [[Sprout]]<br /> |result=*'''Hedge'''<br /> |skill=Gardening<br /> |note=All sprouts will be consumed in one action}}<br /> <br /> == Description ==<br /> A natural fence made from planting sprouts. All but the lowest hedge sizes block movement.<br /> <br /> It appears that different hedges will grow to different possible heights.<br /> <br /> == Hedge Materials ==<br /> Confirmed types of hedge are: [[Camellia]], [[Oleander]], [[Rose]], [[Thorn]], [[Cedar]], [[Maple]] and [[Lavender]].<br /> <br /> Types that are not available are: [[Grape]], [[Apple]], [[Cherry]], [[Lemon]], [[Olive]], [[Birch]], [[Pine]], [[Oak]], [[Willow]], [[Linden]]<br /> (''Nobody has managed to grow those in hedges yet.'')<br /> <br /> == Creating ==<br /> A total of 5 sprouts of the same type are needed to plant a hedge. Unlike actual fences, there is no skill requirement based on the tile border's slope.<br /> <br /> ''You need to have at least 5 sprouts of the same kind in your inventory.''<br /> <br /> Note that failure is possible - ''Sadly, the sprout does not survive despite your best efforts.'' You lose one sprout if you fail.<br /> <br /> == Improving ==<br /> Can't be improved.<br /> <br /> == Destroying ==<br /> Can be destroyed just as any other fence using a bashing tool. [[Catapult]]s are confirmed to work on them. A [[Body Strength]] of 21 is required for both methods. <br /> <br /> * Unsure at this time if damage done can be repaired, or if a growth would reset it.<br /> * Pruning hedge to medium or low length before bashing increase the damage tremendously. (tested with 10ql rose hedges, 4 damage before prune, 40 damage after)<br /> <br /> == Growing ==<br /> Takes 2 to 3 days to grow from low to medium.<br /> <br /> [[Wild growth]] advances a hedge 1 growth-stage (makes low medium, and medium high, if the hedge type grows that tall).<br /> <br /> Prune with a [[sickle]] (or other bladed tools) to make them 1 growth shorter. <br /> (On deed the manage option 'can cut old trees' must be enabled).<br /> <br /> A sickle can also be used to destroy a low hedge.<br /> <br /> == Height ==<br /> All hedges start at low height, which does not impede movement. They will then grow to medium height upon which they become impassable and eventually reach peak height (tall as a house wall). The two exceptions to this are:<br /> <br /> * [[Lavender]] hedges stay at the lowest height and therefore remain passable.<br /> * [[Camellia]] hedges stop growing upon reaching medium height, which permits seeing over the hedge while blocking movement.<br /> <br /> Hedges can be temporarily trimmed shorter by pruning but will regrow again.<br /> <br /> <br /> {| border=&quot;2&quot; cellspacing=&quot;5&quot; cellpadding=&quot;2&quot; align=&quot;center&quot; style=&quot;text-align:center; style=&quot;background-color:#474340;&quot;<br /> |+ Different Heights<br /> |- style=&quot;background-color:#a6a290;&quot; |<br /> !

<p>ChrisNYC: /* Xanadu Update */</p> <hr /> <div>This guide takes 1 to 3 hours to complete. Upon completion you will have a powerful collection of tools resources and skills to either begin your own settlement or become a skilled monster slayer.<br /> <br /> ==Part 1: Gear up!==<br /> You may find it helpful to stick around the starting [[settlement]] for your first few hours. Use the [[spirit guard]]s for protection, and the [[bartenders]] for [[food]]. Also, there is often [[clay]], [[iron]] and water nearby.<br /> <br /> ===Xanadu Update===<br /> In some cases, on the new Xanadu server, it may be difficult to find water sources. In light of this, it is more than ever a good idea to stay near the bartender in your starting settlement. Although you cannot die directly of thirst in Wurm, being dehydrated can drastically reduce your stamina recharge rate, which can be deadly when fleeing from hostile creatures.<br /> <br /> Currently, the best strategy for survival on Xanadu, aside from [http://forum.wurmonline.com/index.php?/forum/177-recruitment-x/ joining experienced players in a village], is to follow this guide as best as possible within a 5 minute walk from your starting settlement.<br /> <br /> ===Starter kit===<br /> Some of the gear you start with will just weigh you down early on (see [[encumbered]]). Open a [[bank]] account at the [[token]] and deposit the following:<br /> *[[rake]]<br /> *[[backpack]]<br /> *[[toolbelt]]<br /> *[[birchwood shield]]<br /> <br /> ===10kg of wood===<br /> *Find a [[log]] at least 4.0 kg in weight, and create the following:<br /> **[[mallet]]<br /> **(optional) [[spindle]]<br /> **(optional) [[clay shaper]]<br /> **(optional) [[spatula]]<br /> *Also, collect about 6kg of [[wood scrap]] or logs. (use this as fuel for a fire in the next step)<br /> <br /> ===[[Clay Jar]]s===<br /> Clay Jars can be used to carry drinking water.<br /> *Find out where the nearest [[clay]] is, and dig clay until your [[digging]] skill gets to 5 or 10, this will also improve your [[body strength]].<br /> **press F2 and check out what your [[Body Strength]] is. The maximum weight in kg you can carry is equal to 2 times your Body Strength, before taking a 25% walking speed penalty. (3.5 x Body Strength) results in a 75% speed penalty.<br /> *create 2 [[jar]]s, and use the woodscrap to make a fire and cook the jars.<br /> *fill up the jars with water from a lake or ocean.<br /> <br /> ===Get some fuel===<br /> Tip: You can ''equip'' and ''carry'' about 40kg total before being [[encumbered|slowed down]]<br /> *pick up as much tar, peat or woodscrap as you can without a speed penalty.<br /> **dont forget kindling if you are using tar or peat<br /> *head to the nearest mine in search for Iron<br /> <br /> ===Get some iron===<br /> *Mine [[rock shards]] from a [[cave wall]] until your [[mining]] skill is 5 or 10. This will also improve your body strength.<br /> *Mine an [[iron vein]] 5, or 15 times. (15 if you cannot find a public [[large anvil]]).<br /> *create a [[campfire]], if no [[forge]] exists, and make the following:<br /> **[[small anvil]]<br /> **2 or 4 [[large nails]] (2 for a [[mine door (wood)|mine door]]; 4 for a 1-tile [[house]])<br /> **1 [[door lock]] (for a mine door)<br /> **7 or 9 [[small nails]] (for a [[bucket]], [[small cart]] and maybe some [[wooden fences]] later on)<br /> <br /> ===Check the trader===<br /> Often times the [[trader]] will have cheap items that are very helpful to new players. As a new player you can trade [[forage]]d items, [[pottery]] and [[spindle]]s for the following. Sometimes you may have to bargain excessivly in order for the trade to be equal. If the trader says &quot;I am low on cash right now&quot; ''it is still possible to trade'', you just need to demand more items to make the trade equal.<br /> *[[pelt]]<br /> *[[tooth|teeth]] and [[gland]]s (low weight highly effective healing covers)<br /> *[[cotton]] or cotton [[string]] (fishing rod)<br /> *[[seeds]] (to start a farm)<br /> *[[rope]] to catch stray cow or horse if you are lucky enough to find one.<br /> <br /> ==Part 2: Embark on your adventure==<br /> It's time to leave the comforts of your hometown. Eat at the bartenders for the last time. Fill up jars with about 6kg of water. Look at your compass, and hit the open road!<br /> ===Your First Kill===<br /> Now that your Body Strength is 20 you should be able to defend yourself in a fight (to some extent). Make sure your short sword is in your right hand. And turn off Autofight, so that you can see if you are too far, or too close to your target.<br /> '''Most animals are still stronger than you.''' However you should be able to kill the following:<br /> *[[deer]]<br /> *[[large rat]]s<br /> *[[pig]]s<br /> *[[horse]]s<br /> *[[dog]]s<br /> *[[bull]]s<br /> *[[wild cat]]s<br /> You might be able to kill the following, but only if they are a [[young]] [[age]].<br /> *[[cave bug]]<br /> *[[mountain lion]]<br /> *[[black wolf]]<br /> *[[goblin]]<br /> Do not attempt to kill a [[wild boar]], [[anaconda|snake]] or [[unicorn]] these three are deceptivly strong and very dangerous '''if provoked'''.<br /> <br /> Once you have a fight skill of 5 or 10 you can try more challenging game. If you are losing a battle, retreat into the nearest lake, most animals in Wurm cant swim. Also, you can call [[tower guard]]s by entering &quot;guards!&quot; in local chat.<br /> <br /> If you want more practice you can train your skills, by chopping down trees with your weapon. This will damage your weapon, but you will fighting experience. Also, see [[practice doll]] for becoming a better fighter.<br /> <br /> ===Settle Down===<br /> Find a place to settle. Look for areas with lots of:<br /> *water very close<br /> *trees very close<br /> *iron nearby ([[Iron rock]] can be an alternative to an [[iron vein]])<br /> *clay nearby<br /> <br /> The following are not essential, but can be useful after you get settled.<br /> *[[Sand]]<br /> *[[Copper]]<br /> *[[Lead]] is important for [[shipbuilding]]<br /> *[[Tar]] is great for filling [[Lantern]]s<br /> *[[Peat]] is good for fueling fires.<br /> <br /> But, [[Water]], [[Iron]] and [[Trees]] are the most critical.

<p>ChrisNYC: </p> <hr /> <div>This guide takes 1 to 3 hours to complete. Upon completion you will have a powerful collection of tools resources and skills to either begin your own settlement or become a powerful monster slayer.<br /> <br /> ==Part 1: Gear up!==<br /> You may find it helpful to stick around the starting [[settlement]] for your first few hours. Use the [[spirit guard]]s for protection, and the [[bartenders]] for [[food]]. Also, there is often [[clay]], [[iron]] and water nearby.<br /> <br /> ===Starter kit===<br /> Some of the gear you start with will just weigh you down early on (see [[encumbered]]). Open a [[bank]] account at the [[token]] and deposit the following:<br /> *[[rake]]<br /> *[[backpack]]<br /> *[[toolbelt]]<br /> *[[birchwood shield]]<br /> <br /> ===10kg of wood===<br /> *Find a [[log]] at least 4.0 kg in weight, and create the following:<br /> **[[mallet]]<br /> **(optional) [[spindle]]<br /> **(optional) [[clay shaper]]<br /> **(optional) [[spatula]]<br /> *Also, collect about 6kg of [[wood scrap]] or logs. (use this as fuel for a fire in the next step)<br /> <br /> ===[[Clay Jar]]s===<br /> Clay Jars can be used to carry drinking water.<br /> *Find out where the nearest [[clay]] is, and dig clay until your [[digging]] skill gets to 5 or 10, this will also improve your [[body strength]].<br /> **press F2 and check out what your [[Body Strength]] is. The maximum weight in kg you can carry is equal to 2 times your Body Strength, before taking a 25% walking speed penalty. (3.5 x Body Strength) results in a 75% speed penalty.<br /> *create 2 [[jar]]s, and use the woodscrap to make a fire and cook the jars.<br /> *fill up the jars with water from a lake or ocean.<br /> <br /> ===Get some fuel===<br /> Tip: You can ''equip'' and ''carry'' about 40kg total before being [[encumbered|slowed down]]<br /> *pick up as much tar, peat or woodscrap as you can without a speed penalty.<br /> **dont forget kindling if you are using tar or peat<br /> *head to the nearest mine in search for Iron<br /> <br /> ===Get some iron===<br /> *Mine [[rock shards]] from a [[cave wall]] until your [[mining]] skill is 5 or 10.

As a new player you can trade [[forage]]d items, [[pottery]] and [[spindle]]s for the following. Sometimes you may have to bargain excessivly in order for the trade to be equal. If the trader says &quot;I am low on cash right now&quot; ''it is still possible to trade'', you just need to demand more items to make the trade equal.<br /> *[[pelt]]<br /> *[[tooth|teeth]] and [[gland]]s (low weight highly effective healing covers)<br /> *[[cotton]] or cotton [[string]] (fishing rod)<br /> *[[seeds]] (to start a farm)<br /> *[[rope]] to catch stray cow or horse if you are lucky enough to find one.<br /> <br /> ==Part 2: Embark on your adventure==<br /> It's time to leave the comforts of your hometown.

<p>ChrisNYC: /* Cooking */</p> <hr /> <div>Wurm is designed so that a player can start with nothing, and create every essential and craftable item. No starter gear, no weapons, no tools, just a shirt and pants, not even shoes! Noobs start with a set of starting weapons and tools. These can be lost, or thrown out. Wurm allows that. 'It isn't easy', starting over in Wurm, 'but it is possible'.<br /> <br /> If you:<br /> * Died an lost an essential item<br /> * Lost everything to raiders on a PVP server<br /> * Dropped your starter gear and lost it<br /> * Or you just want a challenge, aka Wurm Hard Mode<br /> then this is for you. This is not for the faint of heart, even more so than Wurm normally is. But if you like a challenge, you may find it rewarding.<br /> <br /> ==Make [[crude tools]]==<br /> *[[crude knife]]<br /> *[[crude shovel]]<br /> <br /> Your first order of business is to find [[iron rock]] and [[branch]]es. Once you find a rock face, you need to rummage over it. Rummaging is like foraging but for rock instead of grass, trees, or steppe. You will likely only turn up two types of items: rock shards (in smaller amounts than you would mine) and iron rock. You will need both to make your first tool, a [[crude knife]].<br /> <br /> *find a large area of exposed rock, like a cliff or mountain, now rummage on a [[rock tile]] until you have<br /> **at least 1 [[iron rock]]<br /> **1 [[rock shards]]<br /> *Forage in a forest until you have<br /> **1 [[branch]]<br /> <br /> *Use the [[iron rock]] on the [[rock shards]] to make a [[crude knife]]<br /> *Use the [[crude knife]] on the [[branch]]es to make [[shaft]]s<br /> *Use the [[crude knife]] on the [[rock shards]] to make a [[crude shovel blade]]<br /> *Use the [[shaft]] on the [[crude shovel blade]] to make a [[crude shovel]]<br /> <br /> ''Tips for foraging:<br /> *''keep all cotton (healing)<br /> *''crush all pumpkin into seeds<br /> *''crush wemp into fiber for a rope<br /> *''save sprouts for fuel<br /> *''drop acorns''<br /> <br /> ==Smelting iron==<br /> *[[mallet]]<br /> *[[iron lumps]]<br /> <br /> Rummage again until you have:<br /> *12 iron rock<br /> (When you smelt the iron rocks in a campfire you get .2kg for every 3kg.)<br /> <br /> Use your crude shovel to cut down a &quot;mature tree&quot;, an &quot;old and shriveled tree&quot;, or a &quot;fruit tree&quot;.<br /> use your crude knife on the log and make a shortbow this will give you 2kg woodscrap<br /> use your crude knife on the log and make a kindling.<br /> ''use the kindling on the woodscrap to make a campfire''<br /> put the iron rocks in the fire.<br /> <br /> While the iron rocks are heating up, you need to forage 2 more branches<br /> cut them into shafts<br /> make a [[mallet]] and a [[handle]]<br /> <br /> ==Make iron carving knife and small anvil==<br /> *[[small anvil]]<br /> *[[carving knife]]<br /> <br /> *Combine all of the *hot* lumps into one big [[lump]].<br /> *Use the mallet on the lump to make a [[small anvil]]<br /> *use the remaining lump on the small anvil to make a [[carving knife blade]]<br /> *use the knife on the shaft to make a handle<br /> *attach the handle to the carving knife blade<br /> <br /> ==Your Choice==<br /> <br /> ===Cooking===<br /> At this point I recommend you search for [[clay]], and take 2 crude shovels, and 2 crude pickaxes (because they break, and cannot be repaired).<br /> *Make 2 or 3 [[jar]]s to carry water, and a [[clay bowl]] to cook in.<br /> <br /> Eventually your going to need to cook casseroles, and carry water around with you, that's why i recommend this option.<br /> <br /> ===more iron tools===<br /> put that [[small anvil]] to use and make more tools, nails, and locks.<br /> <br /> ==Have Fun==<br /> This should be enough to get you going. You will need to get more iron rock for a [[pickaxe]], [[hatchet]], [[large anvil]] and a [[shovel]], but now you can use the carving knife to make shafts, and the shovel to cut down trees (tip: only cut down mature trees, or fruit trees, you need a hatched to chop up felled trees)<br /> <br /> Good luck in the lands of Wurm!</div>

Personally, I find the pickaxe to be more useful, but either one can cut down a tree. Before you start chopping though, be sure it is either a fruit tree or a mature tree. Why? Because you can't cut a felled tree into logs! Not with any of these tools, anyway. Still, you need to make a mallet, and you will need wood for a fire.<br /> <br /> <br /> If you made a crude pickaxe, you can get started prospecting for iron ore. If you went with a crude shovel, you'll need to rummage for more iron rocks. Either way, get your hands on some more iron (ore or rocks). It's time to start making iron tools.<br /> <br /> <br /> ==Make some new tools==<br /> <br /> From here on out, the only difference between hardcore and normal Wurm is the lack of weapons while you are building your own set of tools and weapons (and armor and whatever else you decide to build). Being able to defend yourself is an undeniable advantage, but tools are far more important to you at this point. Especially an [[anvil]], a [[pickaxe]], a [[hatchet]], and a [[carving knife]].<br /> <br /> Since the anvil must be made first, you need to make a [[mallet]]. This tool is only necessary to make the anvil to begin with, and once the anvil is made, its importance diminishes. Fortunately, it is easy to make.<br /> <br /> The hatchet and carving knife seem to me to be the most important tools to make. You do need to replace the crude pickaxe with a better one as soon as you can, though. You also need to locate an iron vein to get better quality ore. Iron rocks are always low QL. Also, until you make a [[stone chisel]] and find some [[clay]], you will need to smelt your ore in a [[campfire]]. This is much slower than using a [[forge]], but until you have made some basic iron tools, it's all you have.<br /> <br /> <br /> This should be enough to get you going. Good luck in the lands of Wurm!</div>

This is much slower than using a [[forge]], but until you have made some basic iron tools, it's all you have.<br /> <br /> <br /> This should be enough to get you going.

<p>ChrisNYC: </p> <hr /> <div>Wurm is designed so that a player can start with nothing, and create every essential and craftable item. No starter gear, no weapons, no tools, just a shirt and pants, not even shoes! Noobs start with a set of starting weapons and tools. These can be lost, or thrown out. Wurm allows that. 'It isn't easy', starting over in Wurm, 'but it is possible'.<br /> <br /> If you:<br /> * Died an lost an essential item<br /> * Lost everything to raiders on a PVP server<br /> * Dropped your starter gear and lost it<br /> * Or you just want a challenge, aka Wurm Hard Mode<br /> then this is for you. This is not for the faint of heart, even more so than Wurm normally is. But if you like a challenge, you may find it rewarding.<br /> <br /> ==Make crude tools==<br /> *[[crude knife]]<br /> *[[crude shovel]]<br /> *[[crude pickaxe]]<br /> <br /> Your first order of business is to find [[iron rock]] and [[branch]]es, the more the better.<br /> *Go to a large cliff or [[rock face]] for rummaging<br /> **get about 8 iron rocks, and 1 rock shard<br /> *Foraging tree tiles have a higher probability of branches<br /> **get about 12 branches<br /> <br /> <br /> Once you find a rock face, you need to rummage over it. Rummaging is like foraging but for rock instead of grass, trees, or steppe. You will likely only turn up two types of items: rock shards (in smaller amounts than you would mine) and iron rock. You will need both to make your first tool, a [[crude knife]].<br /> <br /> <br /> ==Decisions, decisions==<br /> <br /> Now that you have a crude knife, you can make either a [[crude pickaxe]] or a [[crude shovel]]. Personally, I find the pickaxe to be more useful, but either one can cut down a tree. Before you start chopping though, be sure it is either a fruit tree or a mature tree. Why? Because you can't cut a felled tree into logs! Not with any of these tools, anyway. Still, you need to make a mallet, and you will need wood for a fire.<br /> <br /> <br /> If you made a crude pickaxe, you can get started prospecting for iron ore. If you went with a crude shovel, you'll need to rummage for more iron rocks. Either way, get your hands on some more iron (ore or rocks). It's time to start making iron tools.<br /> <br /> <br /> ==Make some new tools==<br /> <br /> From here on out, the only difference between hardcore and normal Wurm is the lack of weapons while you are building your own set of tools and weapons (and armor and whatever else you decide to build).

Also, there is often [[clay]], [[iron]] and water nearby.<br /> ===Starter kit===<br /> Some of the gear you start with will just weigh you down in the first half hour. Open a [[bank]] account at the [[token]] and deposit the following:<br /> *[[rake]]<br /> *[[backpack]]<br /> *[[toolbelt]]<br /> *[[birchwood shield]]<br /> <br /> ===10kg of wood===<br /> *Find a [[log]] at least 4.0 kg in weight, and create the following:<br /> **[[mallet]]<br /> **(optional) [[spindle]]<br /> **(optional) [[clay shaper]]<br /> **(optional) [[spatula]]<br /> *Also, collect about 6kg of [[wood scrap]] or logs. (use this as fuel for a fire in the next step)<br /> <br /> ===[[Clay Jar]]s===<br /> Clay Jars can be used to carry drinking water.<br /> *Find out where the nearest [[clay]] is, and dig clay until your [[digging]] skill gets to 5 or 10, this will also improve your [[body strength]].<br /> **press F2 and check out what your [[Body Strength]] is. The maximum weight in kg you can carry is equal to 2 times your Body Strength, before taking a 25% walking speed penalty. (3.5 x Body Strength) results in a 75% speed penalty.<br /> *create 2 [[jar]]s, and use the woodscrap to make a fire and cook the jars.<br /> *fill up the jars with water from a lake or ocean.<br /> <br /> ===Get some fuel===<br /> Tip: You can ''equip'' and ''carry'' about 40kg total before being slowed down<br /> *pick up as much tar, peat or woodscrap as you can without a speed penalty. (dont forget kindling if you are using tar or peat)<br /> *head to the nearest mine in search for Iron<br /> <br /> ===Get some iron===<br /> *Mine [[rock shards]] from a [[cave wall]] until your [[mining]] skill is 5 or 10. This will also improve your body strength.<br /> *Mine an [[iron vein]] 5, or 15 times. (15 if you cannot find a public [[large anvil]]).<br /> *create a [[campfire]], if no [[forge]] exists, and make the following:<br /> **[[small anvil]]<br /> **2 or 4 [[large nails]] (2 for a [[mine door (wood)|mine door]]; 4 for a 1-tile [[house]])<br /> **1 [[door lock]] (for a mine door)<br /> **7 or 9 [[small nails]] (for a [[bucket]], [[small cart]] and maybe some [[wooden fences]] later on)<br /> <br /> ===Check the trader===<br /> Often times the [[trader]] will have cheap items that are very helpful to new players. As a new player you can trade [[forage]]d items, [[pottery]] and [[spindle]]s for the following. Sometimes you may have to bargain excessivly in order for the trade to be equal. If the trader says &quot;I am low on cash right now&quot; ''it is still possible to trade'', you just need to demand more items to make the trade equal.<br /> *[[pelt]]<br /> *[[tooth|teeth]] and [[gland]]s (low weight highly effective healing covers)<br /> *[[cotton]] or cotton [[string]] (fishing rod)<br /> *[[seeds]] (to start a farm)<br /> <br /> ==Part 2: Embark on your adventure==<br /> It's time to hit the open road! Eat at the bartenders for the last time. Use your jars to fill up your small barrel with about 10kg water. Pick a compass heading and hit the open road.<br /> ===Your First Kill===<br /> Now that your Body Strength is 20 you should be able to defend yourself in a fight (to some extent). Make sure your short sword is in your right hand. And turn off Autofight, so that you can see if you are too far, or too close to your target.<br /> '''Most animals are still stronger than you.''' However you should be able to kill the following:<br /> *[[deer]]<br /> *[[large rat]]s<br /> *[[pig]]s<br /> *[[horse]]s<br /> *[[dog]]s<br /> *[[bull]]s<br /> *[[wild cat]]s<br /> You might be able to kill the following, but only if they are a [[young]] [[age]].<br /> *[[cave bug]]<br /> *[[mountain lion]]<br /> *[[black wolf]]<br /> *[[goblin]]<br /> Do not attempt to kill a [[wild boar]], [[anaconda|snake]] or [[unicorn]] these three are deceptivly strong and very dangerous '''if provoked'''.<br /> <br /> Once you have a fight skill of 5 or 10 you can try more challenging game. If you are losing a battle, retreat into the nearest lake, most animals in Wurm cant swim. Also, you can call [[tower guards]] by entering &quot;guards!&quot; in local chat.<br /> <br /> If you want more practice you can train your skills, by chopping down trees with your weapon. This will damage your weapon, but you will fighting experience. Also, see [[practice doll]] for becoming a better fighter.<br /> <br /> ===Settle Down===<br /> Find a place to settle. Look for areas with lots of trees, water and iron nearby. Clay [[Sand]] and [[Copper]] are also very useful. [[Lead]] is important for [[shipbuilding]]. [[Tar]] is great for filling [[Lantern]]s. And nearby [[Peat]] is good for fueling fires. But [[Iron]] and [[Water]] are the most critical. Prospect for iron and start [[tunnel]]ing, leaving space to expand your cave. Use your door lock and large nails to create a mine door, and presto! Home Sweet Home.<br /> <br /> Here are some fast ways to create a secure area to store your items.<br /> *find a small cave, and put a mine door on it.<br /> *build a small fenced area, and use one wall of a house as a gate.<br /> *build a bsb and a chest and put locks on them.<br /> *build a 1 tile house (requires 80 planks, 4 large nails, and a door lock)<br /> **Hint: 80 planks requires about 14 logs, which is about 2 or 3 [[old]] trees.<br /> <br /> <br /> [[Category:Guides]]</div>
