Main / Terrain / Lava

A lava tile comes from lava eruptions, which are extremely rare natural events and happen only on rock tiles, or when created by a follower of the Path of Power. Lava flows downhill, and its path can be changed by terraforming in front of it.

  • Lava is the most dangerous tile in Wurm. It has the potential to kill in seconds if stood on it. Stay away or expect damage and potential loss of items and corpses!
  • Animals will avoid walking over lava, but they can be led onto a lava tile--but will not receive any damage. This can be used to an advantage if a player is being chased by an aggressive animal.
  • Lava fiends and lava spiders spawn on lava tiles.
  • Lava dries up over time and changes back into rock, raising its slope by a tiny amount.
  • Follower of Path of Power level 7 receive the ability to erupt lava tiles and freeze back to rock tiles. (Can not erupt on deed. Confirmed 01/2014 "Some psychological issue stops you from spawning lava here.")
  • Lava affects the whole 'column' of rock on which it sits, meaning it will appear underground as a 'lava wall' in line with the surface tile.
  • Lava walls in caves are not harmful if touched. They act like a solid wall and you cannot pass through them. Also, if you try to mine the wall it will give the message The rock is too hard to mine.
  • Priests of Magranon with above 40 faith and 40 favor receive the ability to walk on Lava tiles without taking damage.


Note : Recent (March-April 2014) fixes to the process that triggers natural lava will increase it's frequency. It may no longer be "extremely rare".
