Changes

Starting out in Wurm can be tough at first, but as long as you're pointed out in the right direction , you will be able to thrive off the land.

In Wurm , you have a [[Thirst bar]] , [[Hunger bar]] , and a [[Stamina bar]]; these stats are your lifeline. This section will teach you how to keep an eye on each one, and replenish them accordingly.

You must eat in Wurm , just as we all do everydayin real life. But in Wurm, when you eat, you gain [[Nutrition]] as well as replenishing the food meter. But as As a new player , however, you shouldn't have to worry about eating too much. This is because if your hunger meter hits 7%, you will fast , which will use up a fat layer to boost your hunger meter back up to 80%. You can examine your body to get an idea of how many fat layers you have (generally, new players have 8 layers). See [[Starvation]] for more details.

The Thirst blue thirst meter is one that you should always keep in check. Thirst affects your stamina regeneration, which , in Wurm , is very important. As said before, your stamina affects the speed in which you complete tasks and other actions inside Wurm. Keeping your thirst meter above 80% will also give you the best regeneration.

If you take damage, it will remove portions of your stamina based on how severe the wounds are, how many wounds you have, and where they are atlocated. This will mean your max stamina will be reduced until you have either been healed by a [[Priest]] or have used a [[Healing Cover]] (see [[First Aid]] for in-depth explanation).

Ensuring that a mine is close by is important. Most of the things you'll be creating will be made from either [[stone]] or [[iron]]. Both of these materials are obtained through mining. A good distance would be somewhere close by that isn't a complete pain in the toe to cart back and forth between. Another thought would be to set up a small 'camp' inside the mine, be . Be sure you have permission to do this if it's a public mine. Most public mines already have [[forge]]s and [[Bulk storage bin]]s close by to use. Creating your own isn't very difficult, see however. See [[mining]] for more details.

You don't want to be building on someone's building plans , so check in local or kingdom chat to see if anyone is building near you. Space is important, so make sure you have plenty of space between your neighbors. Be sure to ask your neighbors before you start building, this will keep you on good terms with your neighbors, which may prove very useful for the both of you.

As a new player, wood is going to prove extremely useful in your future endeavors. Whether you're going to be part of a village or decide to go off by yourself, you're always going to need wood. Wood isn't hard to find, ; just look for [[tree]]s. Before cutting trees down though, make sure that they are 'Very Old'. See [[Woodcutting]] for further information on the topic.

Seeking help is very important, whether it be on the Wurmpedia, the forums, or in-game. Know your resources for acquiring help. Be polite in the CA HELP channel, and on the forums, and try to check the Wiki if you need help before asking players in-game. If you need help by from a player in-game, be sure to know your location. If you need help finding a map for your server, check >[[Astronomy and geography#Current_Maps|here]]< or on the forums.
