Main / Decay

Decay is the erosion of items and manmade structures in Wurm. There are several ways to reduce decay.

Deeds decrease decay on walls of any kind by 10x, if the upkeep is higher then 7 days.
Deeds stop the decay on walls of any kind if the upkeep is higher then 30 days.
Kingdoms reduce wall decay by 2x.
Non-kingdom zones have no reduced decay.
Normal decay will rot (wood only?) a 20 quality house wall in 1 month.
Houses reduce item decay
Containers will reduce decay by 2x.
Items made out of cedar wood decay slower. Containers made out of cedar do not reduce the decay of it's contents any more then a normal container would.
Pottery reduces decay by about x1.5, depending on the quality.
Backpacks reportedly have a slight reduction on decay of items in them.
Stacking a container inside another container does NOT help. Neither do containers in the inventory.
Raw materials decay faster then finished materials. (Raw materials being logs, rocks etc., finished materials being weapons, tools etc.)
There is a 2-day period of no decay after a wall is finished.
