Description

Sleep bonus (SB) provides a period of increased skill, characteristic, and stamina gain. This is a way to help players who can not play for many hours each day, without hindering players who can stay logged on for a long time.

Usage

Sleep bonus is gained through the use of a bed or bedroll. To gain with use of a bed: log out by right-clicking a vacant bed inside a completed house and select 'Bed' > 'Sleep'. A player receives 1 minute of sleep bonus for every 24 minutes of sleep, with a maximum of 5 hours of stored sleep bonus. Minimum time to stay asleep is 1 hour. All times are in real-life time, not Wurm time. A canopy bed works like bed, a straw bed gives only 75% of gain. A bedroll has to be used near a tent and provides 75% of the gain (the festive bedroll gives 100%).

You can freeze and resume the consumption of sleep bonus with the command '/fsleep'. The action of activating sleep bonus is on a 5 minutes cooldown. You can use the '/sleep' command or press F5 to see your current remaining sleep bonus and whether it is frozen or not.

Notes

  • Sometimes skill gain is so small that you won't be sure sleep bonus is working or not. Set "Skillgain tab updates" to "Per 0.001 increase" in Settings, Text tab.
  • Sleep bonus does not affect the main fighting skill (unless using the practice doll). However, its subskills (defensive, aggressive, and normal) and other fighting-related skills (such as shields and swords) and archery and its subskills, do receive the bonus.
  • Sleep bonus has no effect on faith, alignment, or favor.
  • Sleep powder grants the user one hour of sleep bonus.
  • Rite spells give 5 hours of sleep bonus to the relevant god's followers who pray within 24 hours of the spell being cast.
  • The Vynoran spell Wisdom of Vynora can be used to transform a players available fatigue into sleep bonus.
  • Sometimes SB is awarded for everybody as a compensation for some server problem that prevented normal Wurm play. Sporadically, there are times where players will have 10 hours of Sleep bonus unintendedly if the player has 5 hours accumulated already. This does not increase the pool of sleep you're able to accumulate and after you cannot gain any sleep bonus above 5 hours through sleeping if you're over your 5 hours despite having had 10 hours.
  • Per Keenan: "Sleep bonus has a hard cap of 10 hours, and a soft cap of 5 or 6 depending on if you've completed the journal entry. This means that as a player, you can only gain up to 5 or 6 hours respectively, whereas we can grant sleep bonus up to a maximum of 10 hours total on your character."
  • Characters with high Fats nutrition level have reduced sleep bonus drain. This is done by restoring an amount of sleep bonus relative to the level of fat bar, for every 5 seconds of sleep bonus, receive x seconds back.
  • When claiming sleep bonus increases from journal entries, the cap is 10 hours, the same as the developer given sleep bonus cap.
