== Personal Data ==
* ''EDITORIAL NOTE''
** This game account has been banned since October 2010.
** A full [http://wurmonline.com/forum/index.php?topic=41878.msg401417#msg401417 skill dump] of this character is available on the Wurm forums.
** This game account was banned for reasons involving actions outside of the game environment. As such, the skill dump represents skills that were acquired using methods available to all players at the time that they were used. Indeed, it seems that through cunning and intuition, not 3rd party software and hacks this character's skills were acquired. Sometimes infamously referred to as "windows of opportunity", Wurm Online's development practice has a documented history of changing server game code to alter behavior in a way that may change future player's game experiences.
** Although this player had their game account banned permanently it should be noted that this ban was issued by Rolf himself and not a GM or any member of the moderation team. As such, this ban may or may not have been subject to the same review process involved in other bans. This player is noted as having expressed disinterest in the notion of appealing any administrative actions taken by Wurm Online and OneTooFreeAB regarding this game account.
** Uncertainty among players may still exist as to why this player was banned but what is known with certainty is that the player behind this character never manipulated game data or network traffic in a way that was inconsistent with game rules.
** The player behind this character is no longer involved with Wurm Online.

* ''RUMORS AND SECRETS''
** It is rumored that this player's disappearance does not actually represent death, although a memorial is thought to exist somewhere in the lands of Wild.
** Alchemists have recently discovered evidence that this player did not actually die but may have actually passed through a type of [http://cutstuff.net/blog/ dimensional gateway] using ancient knowledge currently long forgotten to Wurm's greatest scholars and scribes. It is there that this character is thought to be conducting experiments with the same energies that the gods used to create the universe of Wurm Online.
** The only known [http://wurmonline.com/forum/index.php?topic=36410.msg425168#msg425168 remnants] discovered after this player's disappearance represent the items that this player always carried but where strangely found in a location that this player is thought to have never visited. Although his clothes were found no remains of the actual person have yet been discovered, further suggesting a transition to an alternate plane of reality.
** Preferring to remain nameless, a female Champion of Vynora companion he was often seen with has been rumored to have suffered profound grief after Poolsclosed's disappearance. She prays to Vynora that she may one day be reunited with her close companion, although she fears this day may only come when the dark spirit on the way to the netherworld chooses to no longer block her path.

== Villages ==

This player is rumoured to have been a member of the following villages in Wurm Online, but the nature and extent of his involvement with each remains unknown.

* Wild server
** [[Kyara]]
** [[Sparta]]
** [[Ironworks]]

* Jenn-Kellon Home server
** [[Noriyah]]
** [[New Broleans]]

Poolsclosed: /* Domain bonuses */

I thought the requirement to become converted was 1,5 body skill. Can someone else confirm this? I've converted 3 people by telling them to get 1,5 body skill first.
--[[User:Swedish Phoenix|Swedish Phoenix]] 07:53, 29 August 2007 (CDT)

Somebody told me 1.25 and somebody else told me 10 skill, so I tested at 1.25 body and then at 10 woodcutting. You're probably right. --[[User:Thorgot|Thorgot]] 10:48, 29 August 2007 (CDT)

: I converted with highest skill at 5, just after reaching 1.5 body. Unless anyone can show a conversion below 1.5 body, I think we're set. - [[User:Dashiva|Dashiva]] 14:05, 29 August 2007 (CDT)

==Domain bonuses==
Is there '''any''' proof of bonuses in domains?

*Skill gain
My 85 faith vyn priest made some bow strings in and out of vynora domain. Each consecutive action gave about 0.0132 skill (slightly decreasing because of rising skill). I made the bow string in Vyn domain, moved into Mag domain and repeated, moved back to vyn domain and created the 3rd bow string. The resulting skill gains were
# 0.0132140 (in vyn domain)
# 0.0132030 (in mag domain)
# 0.0131990 (in vyn domain)
This does not look like there is any skill gain bonus in domains

: Did you have at least 60 favor while doing this test? It doesn't say in your note, just making sure. [[User:Poolsclosed|Poolsclosed]] 00:48, 9 October 2010 (UTC)

Trader

2010-10-05T12:48:58Z

Poolsclosed: /* Item stocks */

[[CDB|Main]] / '''{{PAGENAME}}'''

A '''trader''' is a [[NPC]] who buys and sells items.

== Placement ==
Traders are placed by using a [[trader contract]], which is purchased from other traders at a cost of 50s. A new trader must be placed at a minimum distance of 63 tiles away from other traders. Traders must be placed inside a [[building]] (not a [[market stall]]), but stay functional if the building disappears. Traders cannot be moved after they have been placed. Unlike Personal Merchants, Traders will not disappear if they haven't had any activity for 30 or more. If you own the writ to the building the trader is in and bring that building ondeed (EX Resizing) the Trader will automatically become a Citizen of your settlement.

== Item stocks ==
A trader will always start with the following items in stock:
* A settlement form
* A [[personal merchant contract]]
* A [[trader contract]]
* 3 [[farwalker stone]]s
* 3 [[farwalker twig]]s
* 3 [[large magical chest]]s
* 3 [[resurrection stone]]s
* 3 [[Rod of transmutation]]
* 3 [[shaker orb]]s
* 3 [[silver tuning fork of metal detection]]
* 3 [[sleep powder]]
* 3 [[small magical chest]]s
* 3 [[steel and flint]]

Once all of the items in any of these categories is bought, the trader will always have at least 1 in stock on the next trade. For example if you buy 3 [[large magical chest]]s in one trade, you will see the trader has none left. On re-trading with the same trader it will always somehow have 1 more in stock.

Beyond this, traders only have the items they have bought from players. When the king distributes new funds to traders (see below), he may claim some items from the stock.

== Cash flow ==
Traders will buy almost any item, unless he considers it worthless, it cannot be traded, or he is broke. Every item has a base price, which is modified by the trader according to local supply and demand. For each transaction performed by the trader, a small portion is added to the village upkeep fund as a tax. The remaining money goes to the seller.

'''''Exception:''' Money from deed and contract purchases go straight to the king.''

A new trader starts out with 1 silver coin in funds. Periodically, the king will distribute new funds to traders, provided the trader has sold at least 10% of what it purchased. You can see what amounts a trader has bought and sold with the [[Path of Knowledge|Get Info]] ability.

The main source of the kings funds is [[settlement]] upkeep. The king will not grant funds to traders holding 50 silver or more.

Try this fix if your trader has not been receiving funds from the kingdom pool, and you have confirmed via Path of Knowledge that it's ratio is 0.0.
Buy 1 silver worth of player made items off the trader.
Sell back the player made items as as you bought.
If you are able to sell back all the player made items you bought, then the trader should have a ratio of around .50
of course if the trader is a citizen of a deed, then a portion of the coin you put on the trader will go into deed upkeep so you won't be able to get the full 1s back.
A ratio of at least .10 is needed to get funds off the kingdom pool.
Once a Trader's ratio has been corrected, it may take a few days or a server restart before the trader start acquiring coin off the kingdom pool. I'm not quite sure how often the mysterious figure visits the traders, buying random stuff off of them which replenishes some of the trader's coins from the kingdom pool.
This is speculative, however It seems I have been able to get 1 trader that was suffering from its 28 day ratio reset back in working condition. I won't make any guarantees this will work but if your trader hasn't been collecting any coin, a 1 silver investment could pay off. Detailed Knowledge of Traders is limited so this fix might have errors, but good luck. ~AAetius

Steppe tile

2010-09-26T05:48:46Z

Poolsclosed:

[[CDB|Main]] / [[:Category:Terrain|Terrain]] / '''{{PAGENAME}}'''

A '''[[Terrain:Steppe|steppe tile]]''' is a [[tile]] characterized by regions too dry to support a forest, but not dry enough to be a desert.

Steppe tiles are thought to be good for hunting. This might be because [[tree]]s do not block your view and steppe is known to be one of the sources of regional [[animal]] spawns, notably wild [[horse]]s.

You can [[botanize]] but you can not [[forage]] on steppe tiles.

You can dig or pack steppe away. You can convert a [[Dirt tile|dirt]] tile into a steppe tile by planting [[mixed grass]] botanized from other steppe tiles. Steppe spreads onto dirt tiles on its own, but slower than [[grass]].

Planting steppe with [[mixed grass]] is treated like planting any other [[flower]] type. As such, the success rate of planting [[mixed grass]] is influenced by the [[Nature|nature]] subskill, [[gardening]].

Dye

2010-08-20T21:36:14Z

Poolsclosed: /* Usage */

[[CDB|Main]] / [[:Category:Skills|Skills]] / [[Alchemy]] / [[Natural substances]] / '''{{PAGENAME}}'''

''Dye, used to colour clothing and items with.''

'''Dye''' is made from various [[item]]s and [[water]] and is used to paint items and [[wall]]s.

== Colors ==
* '''Black''' - [[Tannin]] and [[iron lump]] or [[iron scrap]] (difficulty 40, hardest dye to make)
* Blue - [[Woad]]
* Green - [[Copper lump]] or [[metal scrap|copper scrap]] (minimum .8 kg)
* Red - [[Cave bug]] or [[scorpion]] [[cochineal]]
* White - [[Zinc lump]] or [[metal scrap|zinc scrap]]

== Tools required ==
* Any [[container]] that can hold [[liquid]], like [[pottery jar]] or [[small bucket]]

== Items required ==
* Water
* Cochineal
* Copper lump or copper scrap
* Tannin and iron lump or iron scrap
* Woad
* Zinc lump

== Method ==
# Put appropriate item in [[inventory]].
# Put water in container.
# [[Activate]] item.
# Right-click on water in container and select "Create > Miscellaneous > <color> dye"

===Notes===
* Resulting dye will have three color values: red, green, and blue.
* R=255 G=255 B=255 is pure white.
* Dye may be combined and the values will average out (although they will be about 2 points closer to grey across the board).
* The higher the quality is, the brighter and less grey the color will be.
* Dye and water cannot be mixed to make a paler dye.
* The more difficult colors can not be made until after making some of the easier colors. Start with green, or maybe blue.
* To get rid of unwanted dye, just right-click and select "Pour" (don't worry, it won't leave a stain).
* When making dye with metal lumps, there is no need to [[heat]] them up first.
* The [[quality]] of the cochineal does not affect the success chance when creating red dye.
* If [[failing]] to make green dye using a copper:
** A copper scrap of the same mass is created.
** The scrap is destroyed.

==Usage==
# Activate dye.
# Right-click on item and select "Paint".

Paintable items include: building walls, chests, barrels, buckets, signs, carts, catapults, pottery, lanterns, statues, and ships.

The amount of dye used depends on the item being painted:

Farmer's salve

{{Needsimage}}

==Description==
''This faintly healing salve will cure swelling and bruises. It has a pretty vibrant smell of garlic.''

'''Farmer's salve''' is a low [[weight]] [[healing]] item used for [[bruise]]s.

==Usage==
Farmer's salve will not work on any wound above a medium. It acts the same as bandaging would, and thus will not work if a wound is already bandaged.

Light or very light wounds take 0.01 of the weight of the farmer's salve, and medium wounds take 0.02. Use of a farmer's salve gives [[First aid]] skill.

'''Wound type must be a bruise or poison wound to use a farmer's salve. A farmer's salve will not work on bite, burn, cut or hole type wounds.'''

When using a farmer's salve to heal a bruise, the text next to the wound reads "bandaged" but when healing a poison type wound it gives the special text "applied". Farmer's salve is currently only one of very few possible ways to heal a poison wound, the other ways being tied specifically to religion.

==Notes==
*[[Garlic]] QL determines success rate.
*[[Animal fat]] QL determines maximum QL.

Exorcism is the skill used when you attempt to destroy an [[altar]].

High skill increases your success rate. Failing to desecrate an altar can result in [[wounds]] with both [[Venom|poison]] and [[Rotting_Touch|rotting touch]] characteristics.

[[Champion player|Champion]]hood will raise this skill by 50 points, to a maximum of 80.

Followers of any deity need at least 10 [[faith]] to attempt a desecrate action.

Fighting

Poolsclosed: /* Fighting characteristics */

[[CDB|Main]] / [[Skills]] / '''{{PAGENAME}}'''

== Description ==
Skill used in melee fighting [[:Category:Bestiary|animals]] and [[Tactics|other players]].

==Targeting==

{{:Target}}

== Skills ==
The height of the main fighting skill determines your chances to hit and chance to successfully focus.

The best way to train fight skill is by fighting opponents that are near your skill range; that way the skill you gain will be far superior than training against a creature that is either too strong for you or simply a very easy match. [[animal conditions|Greenish, raging, angry, and CHAMPION]] creatures are a very effective way to train fighting.

Fight skill gain against creatures is slowed down at 70 skill.

=== Fighting sub-skills ===
::* [[Weaponless fighting]] - Fighting without [[:Category:Weapons|weapons]] equipped (depends on weight of items being carried and type of armor); skill is gained when a kick message is received.
::* [[Aggressive fighting]] - Reduced defences, but higher damage. Damage scales with strength. Attack speed is the same as Normal stance.
::* [[Defensive fighting]] - Reduced damage, slower attack/aim speeds, but higher defences.
::* [[Normal Fighting]] - Defences are weapons' defaults. Damage dealt is weapon's default, scaled with strength.
::* [[Skills:Taunting|Taunting]] - Attempting to taunt your opponent to attack you instead of your allies.
::* [[Shield-Bashing]] - Knocking over your opponent with your [[:Category:Shields|shield]]. Higher skill in shield bash results in a longer time the opponent is disabled on ground. A combination of shield skill and shield bash skill calculate hit chance. Shield-bashing does some damage to the opponent.

=== Weapon skills ===
It is best to use dual-wield if you want to use both hands. If you use more than one type of weapon your skill gain is spread over two categories and will take longer to raise.

Weapon skill over 50 does very little. At 60 you get a new special move. higher weapon skill will increase your chance to change aim. Grinding past 50 skill, however, does not seem to increase one's chance to parry or hit.

An easy way to gain weapon skill with [[axes]] and [[swords]] ([[longsword]] and [[huge sword]], respectively) is to cut trees down with [[woodcutting]] until 20 skill. This renders even the lowest skill fighter a fairly potent adversary to most common creatures in the Wurm universe, and offers some good [[body]] and woodcutting skill gain to boot.

== Focus ==
{{:Focus}}

== Stances ==
While in autofight (button in the event window), the game will choose stances for you. At low skills, no stance options will be available to you. More stances will appear with a higher primary weapon skill.

At primary weapon skill level 50 you receive defensive stances.

You can bind stances to keys, see [[Client Key Bindings]].

== Special moves ==
As your skill increases with your primary weapon, you will get the option to perform special moves in certain stances. One weapon type usually can perform about 6 special moves.

Special moves are kingdom dependent, so other kingdoms have other moves.

Autofighting will try special moves when you have a high enough chance to use them. They use your normal to hit chance, so if you hit little it may not be worth trying a special move. You lose 1/10th of the stamina cost of the move if you fail.

You can bind special moves to keys, see [[Client Key Bindings]].

== Equipment ==
=== Weapons ===
The height of your weapon skill determines which stances you may take.
:* Primary weapon should be wielded in the right hand, as the left hand will attack less often. Left hand also does not parry at all.

:* [[:Category:Swords | Swords]] deal cutting and piercing damage. Swords have a high parry rate and do medium damage.
:* [[:Category:Axes | Axes]] deal cutting damage. Axes do not parry so should be considered strongly for use with left hand combo's. Axes deal the highest amount of damage.
:* [[:Category:Mauls | Mauls]] deal maul damage. They parry well.

=== Armour types ===
'''Each armor type has a distinct a advantage and disadvantage.'''

:* [[:Category:Plate armour|Plate armour]] - Plate armor provides the largest defense bonus of any armor crafted from non-unique components, at the largest expense of mobility. Plate armor has a high damage reduction factor, which is more pronounced at higher quality.
:* [[:Category:Chain armour|Chain armour]] - Chain armor provides superior defense at the expense of mobility. Attack speed and evasion are moderately affected by chain armor. Chain armor is commonly used. Chain reduces a fair bit of damage.
:* [[:Category:Leather armour|Leather armour]] - Generally provides the least amount of base defense. However it also has the smallest penalties to attack speed and walking speed. Leather armor has a slight evasion penalty. Basic leather armor is rarely used by people who have an alternative, but is certainly better than nothing and is great starting armor for a new player.
:* [[:Category:Studded leather armour|Studded leather armour]] - Generally provides a moderate amount of base defense with similar penalties as leather Armor. Studded leather armour represents a good common ground between speed and moderate defense. Studded leather armor has a mild evasion penalty. Studded leather is very popular, as it's mix of moderate mitigation and high mobility make it perfect for archers and light fighters in [[PvP]].
:* [[:Category:Cloth armour|Cloth armour]] - Offers tiny protection from most attacks. To mitigate for this, cloth armour has the highest evasion rate of any armor type and can be used as an emergency bandage to great effect in dire situations. Cloth armor effectively never saw use previously, but is becoming more common as it's new properties become more well known.

=== Special armour types ===
:* [[:Category:Drake hide armour|Dragon hide armour]] - The best [[leatherworking]] based armour existing in Wurm. Its protection rating is between chain and plate, yet more vulnerable to cutting and piercing than chain armor. Drake hide armor has the lowest penalty to attack speed and walking speed (16.97km/h on cobble) and is very lightweight.
:* [[:Category:dragon scale armour|Dragon scale armour]] - Dragon scales are the best [[Plate armour smithing]] armour available. Made out of the scales of a red [[dragon]], this kind of armour is superior to plate armour, while having movement penalty that is similar to that of studded leather armour.

=== Shields ===
: Shields have a percentage chance to block any melee attack, based on skill-level and class of shield. Additionally shields are effective against arrows when you are facing the archer. Wielding a shield and weapon on the left arm causes the weapon not to be used. Certain weapons are two-handed and will require that any shield be unequipped.

:* [[Large shield]]s - Have the greatest base percentage to block with the highest penalty against weapon speed.
:* [[Small shield]]s - Have the lowest penalty to weapon speed with the lowest base percentage to block.
:* [[Medium shield]]s - A balance between speed and block percentage.
: '''''Shields should be wielded on your arm, not your hand.'''''

== Fighting characteristics ==
:* [[Body control]] - Helps mostly with dodging. Best method to gain body control is by [[smithing]], [[woodcutting]], [[leatherworking]] and [[carpentry]] all offer good skill gain.
:* [[Mind speed]] - Bearing in combat unknown
:* [[Body strength]] - Helps with damage per hit as well as damage to walls per hit. Best method to gain strength is [[mining]] however coal making, [[farming]], [[digging]] and [[woodcutting]] all provide good skill gain.
:* [[Body stamina]] - Determines how long you can fight before running out of stamina. When you run out of stamina, you can not move or defend yourself against incoming attacks very well. Raised by [[mining]], [[digging]], [[woodcutting]], and [[milling]].

== Miscellaneous fighting rules/tips ==
:* If you get hit, you can start "hurting". That means you move slower (30s duration).
:* Bigger numbers matter. Gang up on people. Also, if multiple people start to attack you, its best to try to get some of them off you unless you severely outclass them.
:* There is a flanking bonus to hit from the side or back. If your out numbered, face your strongest opponent. If you outnumber them, surround them. Especially animals, as they turn constantly when surrounded.
:* Moving while fighting gives a penalty to the hit odds of the moving person, and a big penalty to the parry odds. You will not block or parry if your shield skill and weapon skill is below 40.
:* Use 'Spam Mode' to show missed blows or blows for zero damage.
:* Never fight in water.
:* Standing above a critter improves hit chance and reduces the capacity of that critter to target your upper components. Standing beneath one reverses this effect.
:* Running out of stamina during a fight reduces your capacity to defend incoming damage.
:* Take a look at the [[combat rating]] page for some tips on fighting.

== Ranged attacks ==
For details on ranged attacks, see [[archery]] and [[catapult]]s.

* [[Throw]]ing

== Damage messages and Strength of attacks==
When you encounter an opponent, be it a Venerable Greenish Scorpion or just a young starving dog, a successful strike will give you the following message:

You '''<Type of Damage>''' adolescent starving wolf '''<Strength of your Blow>''' and '''<Result>''' it.

The '''''Type of Damage''''' is the kind of damage dealt by the currently equipped weapon, For example: '''''piercing''''' or '''''mauling'''''.

The '''''Strength of your Blow''''' is how hard the hit itself is.
The scale is:

1. Very Lightly

2. Lightly

3. Pretty Hard

4. Hard

5. Very Hard

6. Extremely Hard

7. Deadly Hard

The '''''Result''''' is the severity of the resulting wound. This includes all existing damage so that if you hit an existing wound even with a 1 damage hit you can give '''''damages''''' if it hits an already severe wound. The scale is: slaps, irritates, hurts, harms, damages. Basically the '''''Result''''' is there to tell you what the attack you just made really did to the enemy.

Mounts

2010-06-19T10:33:36Z

Poolsclosed: /* Mountable creatures and the body control required to ride them */

[[Animals]] you can ride on are referred to as '''mounts'''. They can spawn all over the map from [[lair|lairs]] or being random spawns.

== Riding ==
To start riding an animal it either needs to be [[Animal taming|tamed]], lead with a [[rope]], [[dominate|dominated]] or rebirthed. Then simply right-click the animal and select '''ride'''. To unmount click anywhere and select '''disembark'''. You also need to have enough [[body control]] to ride on creatures (see below).

Mounts are turned with the 'a' and 'd' keys (unless you have remapped them). The mount must be moving forward or backward in order to turn.

Not all animals can be mounted, may it due to their physical appearance or age (too young or too old). In that case you will get the message that the animal is too weak.

=== Speed ===
The speed at which mounts are going varies greatly. Some may only go at a few km/h without any accessories, bred horses with high QL accessories at about 34 km/h.

== Accessories ==
You can equip certain animals with accessories such as [[horse shoe]]s, [[bridle]] or a [[saddle]] to make the animal go faster. To equip an animal with either of these, it needs to be tame. Right-click the animal, select Look > Equipment and drag the items onto the proper body parts.

Metallurgy

2010-06-13T14:52:22Z

Poolsclosed: /* Ratios */

[[CDB|Main]] / [[:Category:Skills|Skills]] / [[Smithing]] / [[Metallurgy]]

== Description ==
Metallurgy is the skill used to determine success rates when creating alloy metals.
Known creatable alloys are:

*[[brass lump|Brass]] - created from [[zinc lump|Zinc]] and [[copper lump|Copper]]
*[[bronze lump|Bronze]] - created from [[tin lump|Tin]] and [[copper lump|Copper]]
*[[steel lump|Steel]] - created from [[iron lump|Iron]] and [[charcoal]]

Metallurgy + Charcoal QL affect success rate

Iron QL affects maximum QL

Metallurgy directly affects average QL of metal created.

[[Category:Skills]]
[[Category:Babel/M]]

==Tips==
* The copper and iron can be combined into single large lumps as only the amount required is used.
*It is easy to gain skill by making bronze or brass first, this uses less important items ([[tin lump|Tin]], [[zinc lump|Zinc]] and [[copper lump|Copper]]) rather than using [[charcoal]] which can be quite difficult to get hold of and is annoying to lose.
*Metallurgy is only really useful for increasing steel creation success rates at the moment, as both [[brass lump|Brass]] and [[bronze lump|Bronze]] have very little to no additional utility compared to the metals they derive from.

==[[Titles]]==
* No title at 50 skill

==Ratios==
* [[Brass]]
** 1.00 kg [[Zinc]] lump + 2.00 kg [[Copper]] lump = 0.10 kg [[Brass]] lump
** 1.00 kg [[Zinc]] lump + 1.90 kg [[Copper]] lump = 0.20 kg [[Brass]] lump
** Below 2.00 kg but above 1.00 kg [[copper]] lump seems to result in the highest weight [[brass]]; 0.20 kg [[brass]] lump

Animal taming

2010-06-06T05:05:41Z

Poolsclosed: /* Method */ extremely loyal

== Description ==

'''Taming''' is a [[skill]] used to make an [[animal]] a [[pet]]. You can only have one pet at a time, if you have a pet and you tame another, your first pet will become untamed. Pets that become untamed will return to their normal hostile / non-hostile stance; ie if the animal is normally hostile it will begin attacking guards and players.

There is a penalty to taming for [[Blacklighter]]s; taming is still possible but with a higher level of difficulty.

Only animals can be tamed; for [[monster]]s you need to be a [[Priest]]/Priestess and a follower of [[Magranon]] or [[Libila]].

* A Priest/Priestess of Magranon at 40 [[faith]] can cast [[Dominate]] to tame monsters.

* A Priest/Priestess of Libila at 40 faith can cast [[Rebirth]] to raise the spirit of a slain animal, monster or player as a [[zombie]] pet.

== Method ==
You can use tame by activating an [[item]] the animal will eat. For some animals its [[seeds]], for others its [[meat]]/[[fish]].

'''Taming skill and status of animal '''

* 0-10 Upset
* 10-20 Nervous
* 20-30 Submissive
* 30-40 Calm
* 40-50 Tame
* 50-60 Loyal
* 60-70 Trusting
* 70-99 Extremely loyal

The taming status can be used to know when your animal will go untame. Here is an explanation on how taming seems to work. When you tame an animal numerous times, at a 42 taming skill, for example, your animal will have a max "tamed level" of [42]. Over time, this value will [[decay]], and examining the animal to check its status can tell you on average how high this "level" is, with "upset" being the least reliable status, as your animal could go untame without further warning.

If a pet is hit, it will lose loyalty. Stronger animals lose more loyalty when hit then weak animals.

A pet can be ordered to go somewhere or to attack other animals/people. You can also lead a pet with a [[rope]].

A pet can't be tamed by another person while it's your pet. A higher taming skill will probably make the animal stay longer as your pet.

You can decide if your pet should go offline or stay online when you log off. Right-click something and select <tt>Pet > Go (off/on)line.</tt>

You can give your pet to another person (if they do not already have a pet). Right-click on person and select <tt>Pet > Give away pet</tt>.

The [[QL]] of the taming item speeds up the taming action. It is about 1 second less per 20 QL.

=== Important Notice ===

As of February 2008, when Mol-Rehan was introduced, Taming was made '''much''' harder. While past mechanics allowed you to just try and tame again when you failed, the new system will make the animal go aggressive and attack you if you fail by too large a margin. Additionally, it will lose a level of loyalty when this happens. If that wasn't enough, all animals had their taming difficulty severely raised, making it nearly impossible to tame a champion class animal and a gruesome project to tame even an ordinary bear with as high as 50 taming. You are advised to take extreme caution when attempting to tame something, preferably by fencing the animal in and taking refuge outside the gate if the animal goes berserk on you.

If the animal has at least a single level of loyalty left after going aggressive from a failed taming, it will revert to its tamed status again after a while, provided nobody attacks it. Naturally neutral animals such as pigs, roosters, pheasants and unicorns will also return to their neutral state some time after a fail.
Don't forget that deed and tower guards attack hostile animals if summoned, but only if the animal is naturally hostile. For example, guards will attack a [[crocodile]] if summoned, but will ignore a berserk [[unicorn]].

If you are going to invest in taming then be prepared to either wait and hope it will be made easier again, or invest enough time into it to bring it above 50 for it to be of any real use. But even then any 'decent' pet is still extremely hard to tame.

== Notice about animals ==

Certain animals are much easily kept tame than others. Be aware that an upset status dog can remain tame for a day maybe two days. However, a crocodile at upset level or nervous level could un-tame any second since they are very aggressive animals.

== A good guide to raising Taming skill ==

You'll need: 
1x cauldron 
9x meat 
1x pig 
1x pottery '''flask''' and
water

1. Fill the cauldron with the water and put the meat in and cook it till it makes a soup. 
2. Get the pig and if you haven't done so already, walk it off deed. 
3. Get the pottery flask and drag the soup from the cauldron to the flask and tame the pig off deed, you'll only take .25 of the soup into the flask from the cauldron. 4. Tame the pig using the soup in the flask and once its tamed, repeat the process over and over till you have no more soup. A good idea is to add four grains ([[rye]] or others) and one vegetable ([[potato]]es, [[corn]], etc) to the flask before the soup. This makes the taming use 0.005kg of soup, allowing one cauldron of soup to last much longer. 

== Taming Skill Levels ==

*00 Pigs, Dogs
*05 Wolves, Cows/Bulls
*07 Horses (may be possible to tame before lvl. 07?)
*15 Brown Bears
*15 Young Champion Wolves
*20 Black Bears
*40 Crocodiles

Once I get to the wild i'll try to test the damage on traps. - [[Player:Fishybows|Fishybows]]

Thanks to whoever added the pictures - [[Player:Fishybows|Fishybows]]

Few things to test/add:
- Can traps be placed underwater? (Result: No)
- Can traps be place above water, and lowered underwater, and still function?
- Can, say, a stick trap be placed on a grass tile, and have a sprout plant over it (thus becoming a tree tile), and still function? Yes
- Can enchanted trees and grasses be trapped? (According to wiki: [[Enchanted grass|Yes]]) Yes
- Does enchanting a tile remove the trap? :)
- Can enchants go on traps? (Yes)
- How does enchants, such as [[Rotting Touch|RT]] and [[Flaming Aura|FA]] work on the traps? RT no FA yes
- A table showing Trap name, Skill involved, Location (dirt/grass, tree, cave?), and Effect (damage how much where, slow?) for quick reference?

Well, and whatever else that can be test. :) [[User:Flandre|Flandre]] 02:16, 4 May 2010 (UTC)

Poolsclosed: Guards no longer attack "automatically"

== Description ==

'''Taming''' is a [[skill]] used to make an [[animal]] a [[pet]]. You can only have one pet at a time, if you have a pet and you tame another, your first pet will become untamed. Pets that become untamed will return to their normal hostile / non-hostile stance; ie if the animal is normally hostile it will begin attacking guards and players.

There is a penalty to taming for [[Blacklighter]]s; taming is still possible but with a higher level of difficulty.

Only animals can be tamed; for [[monster]]s you need to be a [[Priest]]/Priestess and a follower of [[Magranon]] or [[Libila]].

* A Priest/Priestess of Magranon at 40 [[faith]] can cast [[Dominate]] to tame monsters.

* A Priest/Priestess of Libila at 40 faith can cast [[Rebirth]] to raise the spirit of a slain animal, monster or player as a [[zombie]] pet.

== Method ==
You can use tame by activating an [[item]] the animal will eat. For some animals its [[seeds]], for others its [[meat]]/[[fish]].

'''Taming skill and status of animal '''

* 0-10 Upset
* 10-20 Nervous
* 20-30 Submissive
* 30-40 Calm
* 40-50 Tame
* 50-60 Loyal
* 60-70 Trusting
* 70-99 Loyal to death

The taming status can be used to know when your animal will go untame. Here is an explanation on how taming seems to work. When you tame an animal numerous times, at a 42 taming skill, for example, your animal will have a max "tamed level" of [42]. Over time, this value will [[decay]], and examining the animal to check its status can tell you on average how high this "level" is, with "upset" being the least reliable status, as your animal could go untame without further warning.

If a pet is hit, it will lose loyalty. Stronger animals lose more loyalty when hit then weak animals.

A pet can be ordered to go somewhere or to attack other animals/people. You can also lead a pet with a [[rope]].

A pet can't be tamed by another person while it's your pet. A higher taming skill will probably make the animal stay longer as your pet.

You can decide if your pet should go offline or stay online when you log off. Right-click something and select <tt>Pet > Go (off/on)line.</tt>

You can give your pet to another person (if they do not already have a pet). Right-click on person and select <tt>Pet > Give away pet</tt>.

The [[QL]] of the taming item speeds up the taming action. It is about 1 second less per 20 QL.

=== Important Notice ===

As of February 2008, when Mol-Rehan was introduced, Taming was made '''much''' harder. While past mechanics allowed you to just try and tame again when you failed, the new system will make the animal go aggressive and attack you if you fail by too large a margin. Additionally, it will lose a level of loyalty when this happens. If that wasn't enough, all animals had their taming difficulty severely raised, making it nearly impossible to tame a champion class animal and a gruesome project to tame even an ordinary bear with as high as 50 taming. You are advised to take extreme caution when attempting to tame something, preferably by fencing the animal in and taking refuge outside the gate if the animal goes berserk on you.

If the animal has at least a single level of loyalty left after going aggressive from a failed taming, it will revert to its tamed status again after a while, provided nobody attacks it. Naturally neutral animals such as pigs, roosters, pheasants and unicorns will also return to their neutral state some time after a fail.
Don't forget that deed and tower guards attack hostile animals if summoned, but only if the animal is naturally hostile. For example, guards will attack a [[crocodile]] if summoned, but will ignore a berserk [[unicorn]].

If you are going to invest in taming then be prepared to either wait and hope it will be made easier again, or invest enough time into it to bring it above 50 for it to be of any real use. But even then any 'decent' pet is still extremely hard to tame.

== Notice about animals ==

Certain animals are much easily kept tame than others. Be aware that an upset status dog can remain tame for a day maybe two days. However, a crocodile at upset level or nervous level could un-tame any second since they are very aggressive animals.

== A good guide to raising Taming skill ==

You'll need: 
1x cauldron 
9x meat 
1x pig 
1x pottery '''flask''' and
water

1. Fill the cauldron with the water and put the meat in and cook it till it makes a soup. 
2. Get the pig and if you haven't done so already, walk it off deed. 
3. Get the pottery flask and drag the soup from the cauldron to the flask and tame the pig off deed, you'll only take .25 of the soup into the flask from the cauldron. 4. Tame the pig using the soup in the flask and once its tamed, repeat the process over and over till you have no more soup. A good idea is to add four grains ([[rye]] or others) and one vegetable ([[potato]]es, [[corn]], etc) to the flask before the soup. This makes the taming use 0.005kg of soup, allowing one cauldron of soup to last much longer.

Fo

[[CDB|Main]] / [[:Category:Religion|Religion]] / '''Fo'''

===Description===
Fo is the [[deity]] of [[gardening]] and [[farming]]. His [[channeling]] item is a gold or silver [[statuette]] of Fo.

== Game lore ==
=== Fo's converting speech ===
Fo!

His creations surround you. His love is everywhere around you.

He is the father of all things. He created the world out of love and passion.

To embrace Fo is to embrace all living things around you.

All and everyone is equal, but different.

We are all dirt. We are all gems. We just come in different shapes and colors.

To create more and love all that is already created is to love Fo.

To passionately strike down at those who aim to destroy these creations is to love Fo.

To strive after beauty and harmony with nature is to love Fo.

=== Fo's Inscription ([[Altar of Three]]) ===
 I am Fo. I am the Silence and the Trees.

The sprout is my symbol.

Silent and lonely I lingered in darkness. Look around you. I created this of love and loneliness.

You are all like, but different. You are all dirt. You are all gems. You just come in different shapes and colors.

Do my bidding. Let all things grow into the splendor they may possess. Strive after beauty and harmony with nature. Let your soul become a lustrous gem.

With the same passion by which I once created all this, strike down at those who aim to destroy these creations.

Love me. Let me love you.

Floor board

|result=* 1 '''{{PAGENAME}}''' (42.00 kg)
|skill=carpentry}}

==Description==
A carpentry item used to create [[Terrain:Wooden planks|wooden flooring]].

===Usage===
* Activate the floor boards, right click a [[dirt]] or [[marsh]] tile, and select "Lay floor".
:''Note: Floor boards outside houses decay fast (tiles change to dirt).''
* Useful for removing [[marsh]] ground tiles. Apply low [[QL]] floor boards (for fast [[decay]]) to a marsh tile and, once the floor boards have decayed, the tile will be [[dirt]]. If the only purpose for laying floor boards is to convert marsh tiles, the layed floor boards can be destroyed at anytime by equipping a [[shovel]], right-clicking on the tile, and selecting "Destroy pavement". [[Body strength]] of 20 is required to destroy pavement.

==Skills==

* [[Paving]] skill is used to apply a floor board.

==Notes==

* Plank quality determines the success rate.
* The plank used to start the floor board is destroyed if the creation attempt fails. Subsequent planks will only get damaged if the fail to attach to the floor boards.
* Finished floor boards take up quite a lot of space, it is advised to haul them around unfinished, seeing as those take up nearly no space.
* Applying [[tar]] to a floor board after it has been paved will help reduce decay on the floor board. To use tar on a floor board, activate the tar in your inventory, select a paved floor board, and then select "Tar". Examining a correctly tarred floor board will display the message: "You see some planks laid down by someone. They are protected from the environment by a thin layer of tar."

==Total materials needed==

* 21x [[plank]]
* 2x [[large nails]]
* 1x [[tar]] (optional)

Altar of Three

2010-03-11T15:08:59Z

Poolsclosed: Specifics about WL destruction

[[CDB|Main]] / [[Religion]] / '''{{PAGENAME}}'''

[[Image:Altarof3.JPG|right|thumb|300px]]

The Altar of Three can only be found only on the [[Server Types|wild server]], and is the home of [[Fo]], [[Magranon]] and [[Vynora]]. Its evil counterpart is the [[Bone Altar]].

A large white light shines upon it, which is visible from most of the wild server.

The [[Religion#Domain_of_the_gods|domain]] generated is for [[Fo]].

The Altar of Three can be used for converting between religions and the white light kingdoms, becoming a [[priest]], and becoming a [[Champion player|champion]].

The destruction of the Altar of Three is one of the goals in the war between the whitelight kingdoms of [[Jenn-Kellon]] and [[Mol-Rehan]] and the blacklight kingdom of [[Horde of the Summoned]]. It is rumoured that destroying a great altar requires your followers to have more then 5000 faith in total. The [[break altar]] spell or the [[Gold Sceptre of Ascension]] can be used to destroy an altar.

Destroying the White Light altar triggers a server-wide event message. (Documented September, 21st 2009)

* '''The Altar of Three has fallen! A new era begins!'''

The effects of destroying the Altar of Three are as documented on September, 21st 2009. These were learned from the results of a bug, and may be subject to future changes:

* '''Removal of the ability to become a WL priest or champion by using the White Light.'''
** The Freedom method of using a priest with high faith (40+) to convert a follower with 30 faith to a priest was still possible.

* '''All WL priests, champions, and followers with faith had their faith halved. This effectively removes all current WL champions.'''

* '''Destruction of all WL altars currently on the map.'''
** Stone and wood altars could be rebuilt, gold and silver could be blessed and were functional after the WL destruction. Faith could be regained.

Special move

2010-03-11T09:00:52Z

Poolsclosed: /* Jenn-Kellon */

==Description==

Special moves are gained when you have enough skill in a specific weapon. You can only perform special moves with your primary weapon (a weapon equipped in your right hand), and in certain stances.
There are about 6 different moves in each class of weapons, in each kingdom. Special moves cost more stamina to use than regular attacks, but instead inflict more damage, multiple wounds or add some kind of effect. If you fail to perform the move it will cost you 1/10 of the original stamina cost. The chance to hit remains the same as you usually have.

These classes are:
* [[Swords]]
* [[Axes]]
* [[Mauls]]
* [[Knives]]

''Note that some tools also have special moves, but from one of these classes mentioned above.''

Different kingdoms learn different moves, so no one of the opposing kingdom can learn your special moves. Kingdoms generally have these typical properties, but it may vary from move to move;

[[Jenn-Kellon]]:
* Average time to perform the move.
* Average damage wounds.
* Creates multiple wounds.

[[Horde of the Summoned]]:
* Slow time to perform the move.
* High damage wounds.
* Often drains stamina of the opponent.

[[Mol-Rehan]]:
* Fast time to perform the move.
* Lower damage wounds.
* Low stamina cost.
* Often affects the opponent's combat rating negative.

[[Freedom]]:
* Average time to perform the move.
* Average damage wounds.
* Creates multiple wounds/drains stamina/breaks concentration.

Guides:Tips for Skills

2010-02-14T08:27:18Z

Poolsclosed: /* Ropemaking */ formatting

{{Cleanup}}
Here is the 'Tips for Skills' page. You can come to this page and put in info on how to raise a certain skill, e.g. what are the tricks of the trade and you can ask for help raising a skill.

==General==

Copied to [[Skillgain Guide General]]

Typical rule of thumb for optimal overall [[skill]] gain is creating items with a chance of 50% (as shown on the item's menu), or improving items 10 [[quality]] (ql) higher than the related skill.

In some skills and crafts there will be no actual displayed creation chance. [[Mining]] to cite one example.

'''Improving''' - Having the best tools and raw materials (resources) you can get your claws on is best. In addition, finding the one item in the skill that uses the least amount of raw materials for improving is desirable.

'''Creation''' - Having a creation chance around 50% seems to give the best skill gain. This chance is calculated based on a number of factors to varying degrees: skill, raw material ql, tool ql, and etc. The exact emphasis can differ from item to item. Typically the quality of the parts and tools have the most impact with skill playing a close second.

'''Enchantments''' - [[Circle of Cunning]] (CoC) and [[Wind of Ages]] (WoA) are both extremely helpful, except where specifically noted otherwise.

'''Altars''' - Working within the [[Religion#Domain_of_the_gods|domain]] of your [[Gods|god(dess)]] can add some bonus gain to certain skills. Most skills and crafts require one to be standing still, so it cannot hurt to have an [[altar]] nearby.

==Blacksmithing==

Copied to [[Smithing Guide]]

To get started it's best to have a forge of decent QL and good QL tools. This ensures that your forge will remain hot for longer and heat things faster, and that you will have less of a chance of failing while imping.

What I find handy when skilling up is to make multiple copies of an item and work on them all simultaneously. If you are also a miner or have ready access to unlimited ore, then you can work on any items you want. If you only have limited access to ore and/or are only working for skill, then your best bet is to create and improve needles. They use .001 lump to create, use hardly anything to imp, and you can fit a hundred in a bowl or jar.

Skill gain is faster the more difficult the work; improving items to 30 points below your level won't generate skillgain as fast as improving items to 10 below your skill level, and so forth.

==Jewelry smithing==

Copied to [[Smithing Guide]]

In order to practice jewelrysmithing you need the same tools as for any other smithing skill: whetstone, hammer, pelt, and water. The higher the QL of your tools, the greater the chance to succeed when improving.

To train JSing it is best to begin with making bowls for initial skill. Bowls can be made of any metal, resulting in high resource availability. As with all skills involving improving, you should endeavor to improve each bowl (and all subsequent items) to your skill plus 10 for maximum skill gain. Eventually, presuming access to silver or gold ore, you can progress to creating armrings. These have a relatively high creation chance for low-skill Jewelrysmiths, and are worth a pretty penny to traders. Their downside is that since they weigh 0.30 each, they consume a lot of gold lump per imp attempt. You can endure this extra lump cost for a while if you have ready access to ore, but if not it is best to skip armrings entirely and proceed to the final item: rings. While their creation chance is initially low, they only weigh 0.05, meaning that a 0.10 lump lasts for 30 uses.

==Carpentry==

Copied to [[Carpentry Guide]]

To raise [[carpentry]] the best way is building [[house|houses]] or grinding sub skills like [[fine carpentry]], [[bowyery]], [[fletching]] and [[ship building]].

Don't use [[Wind of Ages]] on your [[mallet]] when you're building, as it results in reduced skillgain.

For help in building houses, it is strongly recommended that you visit [[The "how do I build a house?" guide.]]

==Digging/Terraforming==

To grind [[digging]] skill up, use a good [[Circle of Cunning]] [[shovel]] and try not to keep your eye on the skillgain; trust me it seems like you get your skill up faster. Look for an area you want to [[Flattening|flatten]] or terraform, and then dig the areas needed and dump the [[Pile of dirt|dirt]] in areas needed. For example:-

You want a bit of land to be flat and you find out some of it is already flat so you dig the areas are not flat.
-------100--------Leave the same
-------100--------Leave the same
-------150-------- Dig 50 here
-------100--------Leave the same
-------100--------Leave the same

If there is only a small bit that needs terraforming then expand the area. Cut some trees down around the edge to make a 5x5 flat surface into a 10x10. Do this as much as you can and your skill will shoot up.

'''Remember don't look at the skills until you have finished at least a 5x5 surface'''

Note: Using the "Flatten" command will give A LOT more skill than simply digging. However its not as productive to randomly flatten areas.
 
For more information see the following guides [[Digging]] and [[Guides/FlatRaising]]

==Farming==

The best way to grind your farming skill is to start with ''Bread crops'' or [[Wemp]]. ([[Oat]], [[Wheat]] & [[Barley]]) You may wonder why, but the reason is that you ALWAYS gain seeds for replanting.

To get started so should you start with a 10x10 field for maximum skill gain. Get a small barrel and LOTS of time and you are set. (Read the [[Farming]] article for common farming knowledge.)

==Fighting==

copied to page [[Fighting Guide]]

There's two ways to train fighting, the safe way and the dangerous way:

I recommend using the safe way until around 10 fighting, then go off hunting.

===Safe way===

Create a [[practice doll]] and equip a shaft. Then beat it senseless for a bit, keeping its damage below 20 at all times. Never, EVER use a true weapon, especially a sword, on a practice doll. It's a complete waste of a good weapon and destroys the practice doll in no time. Not recommended. Equipping a shaft is a good weapon to use on a doll, or use a saw.

===Dangerous (but a heck of a lot more fun) way===

Go hunting. That's it. Just go hunting. You first want to try hunting down simple farm animals such as pigs, pheasants, roosters, bulls, cows, etc. Even wild cats work at the start. At around 10 fighting you want to get some leg protection and hunt down wolves. The wolves aim for the legs a lot, so leg protection will save you health in the end. Pheasants in particular can make an excellent training enemy as they will not follow you when you back away from the fight, giving you time to heal and regain stamina if necessary, especially if fighting with very low QL weapons for the skill gain.

==Melee weapons==

Melee weapons can be safely trained up to 20 in that respective weapon. All melee weapons, including [[mauls]] and [[clubs]], can be used on [[practice doll|practice dolls]]. Additionally, Both [[axes]] and [[swords]] can be used to safely hack at trees for skill up to 20. Skill beyond 20 requires usage of these weapons in actual [[fighting]].

The usage of weapons on dolls can inflict heavy damage on both doll and weapon. Practice dolls over 50ql are recomended.

Using axes and mauls gives [[body strength]]. Swords give [[body control]].

==Leatherworking==

Copied to [[Leatherworking Guide]]

To leatherwork you will need; a needle, an awl, some leather, a leather knife and a mallet.

The best way to begin your leatherworking career is to make a leather belt. This is because leather belts use small amounts of leather when created and when improved. Leather belts also have a high % chance to make at low skill which means you will not fail as often. Once you have created your leather belt, get a piece of <strike>high-ish</strike> 15+QL leather and improve the belt until you need another tool. Keep improving it and you will gain skill (you still gain skill from fails but repairing will slow you down). Once you have a higher % chance on other items, make lots of gloves and improve them all to 15QL. Keep doing this with higher difficulty items keeping in mind that items with a 50% success rate will give you the biggest skill gain. NOTE: Needle quality and leatherworking skill will determine the % chance to succeed when creating leather items.

Once your skill reaches 10-15 (EDIT - I would have said 20-25 but this depends on if you like making rivets :Shweet), try and stud some of them. It takes 0.2 kg of rivets to stud ALL leather items apart from leather pants which take 0.8 kg and leather jackets which take 0.4 kg. If you fail to stud an item you will lose the item and the rivet. Rivet ql and leatherworking skill will determine the % chance to succeed when riveting leather armour, not the ql of the leather item to be studded. Tip; combine rivets before improving them.

As your skill goes up you will need better quality tools as the quality of your tools will determine the failure rate when improving. You leatherworking skill level limits the max improving quality. You can improve with raw leather that has lower quality than the item you are improving you will however suffer from larger fail to improve rates. The only item used that has its own skill is a mallet; the miscellaneous skill “hammer” will effect your ability to successfully improve with the mallet.
As with other skills you will gain the most skill by improving the item rather than creating them, and when the item quality is closer to your skill you will also gain the most skill. Working on drake armour gives a greater skill gain than plain or studded leather armour.

'''Creating leather.'''
Successful creation of leather is determined by your leatherworking skill and the quality of the lye used. If successful the leather will be created at the quality of the hide, the higher your leatherworking skill the better chance you will have of creating leather at the maximum hide quality. Higher quality hides are harder to turn into high quality leather and unless you have very good leatherworking skill and lye it will turn into lower quality leather.

When making leather try to use the smallest amount of lye possible as the entire amount is used. To do this, make the lye in a water skin then place 11 potatoes into a jar and then fill that jar with lye. Using this method you will only use 0.08kg of lye on each hide.

==Locksmithing==

Copied to [[Smithing Guide]]

To raise lock smithing, you will need to make [[key form]]. This is achieved by using a key on clay, make sure the key is of low ql so that your success chance is around 50% for optimal skill gain. '''You do not need to fire the clay mold!''' After 25 lock smithing, the fastest way to get skill is to get a [[small anvil]] that is the right ql to get you a 50% chance to make a [[lockpick]]. A pure [[Circle of Cunning]] anvil is recommended for this.

==Masonry==

Copied to [[Masonry Guide]]

Building houses is said to be good skill gain, but you can't even do that until you hit 30 [[Masonry]], and at 75 skill I personally gain no skill using my WoA/CoC [[trowel]] even after putting up 10 walls. The best way to gain skill is to simply improve [[grindstone]]s and other items that fall under the [[Stone cutting]] sub-category. Many towns don't allow [[statue]] spamming, as this contributes to lag, while [[grindstone]]s can fit in [[chest]]s and be carried easily, which is why they are preferred. The bonus to this is that you will also have higher %s on making [[stone brick]]s and [[stone slab]]s. Imping [[forge]]s and [[oven]]s is also great skill gain, but does add a large amount of clutter to an area.

==Mining==

Copied to [[Mining Guide]]

To grind [[mining]] people usually ask for an insanely high [[Quality|ql]] [[pickaxe]] with [[Wind of Ages]] spell. This isn't the way to go. You want a relatively low ql pick with as much [[Circle of Cunning]] on it as possible, this will give a lot of skill if you mine [[rock shards]] with it as it heightens the difficulty and the mine time, its the mine time that improves the skill gain in mining, longer mine time = more skill #.

Mining [[rock shards]] is easier for a new player up to a decent skill level (20 -30?) but from then on if you want to grind [[mining]] I would suggest mining on an [[ore]] [[vein]]. At around 30 skill, [[mining]] [[iron vein|iron]] may be the best option for you, but as you get up to around 40 or even 50 in mining, you should mine [[gold vein|Gold]] or [[silver vein|Silver]]. I would not recommend you start off mining on gold or silver because you are very unlikely to get any ore above ql 1.00 (Mining a ql 1.00 ore/shard gives no skillgain whatsoever) You want to mine shard/ore about 1 half of your actual skill, so say you have 50 mining, you want to be mining 25ql rocks or ore. This means you have a 50% chance of mining a full ql (your mining skill) and failing (1ql). Try to not mine capped walls lower than your skill.

<nowiki># There is actually some disagreement about this. Some people are of the opinion that the extra mining actions with a fast pick make up for the loss of skillgain due to short timers. There is also a 3rd camp which believes that it makes little difference which method you prefer & that skillgain will be about the same if you spend the same total amount of time mining. If this is the case, then how many shards (or how much ore) you want at the end of your mining session might be more important.)</nowiki>

==Weapon smithing==

Copied to [[Smithing Guide]]

Do not care about Blades smithing and Weapon heads smithing skills, that skills you will get while making actual weapons over time. Best item to skill weaponsmithing to 40 are butchering knives, imping butchering knife takes only 0,06kg of iron. First make yourself about 150-200 butchering knife blades, don't care about failures, it will pass over time. Finish unfinished ones, do not imp blades it's a waste of time. For making blades use 1-20ql iron, anything over will be a waste. When you will make 150-200 blades also make same amount of wooden handles. Make first batch of butchering knives, use about half blades for making knives, finish unfinished butchering knives, set yourself a target ql (your actual skill in weapon smithing + 8-10 points. For example, having 10 weaponsmithing you will be able to make weapons with quality about 20). Improve all butchering knives you got to your target quality. After improving all butchering knives to certain ql you can check your skill again, set new target quality level, and proceed with improving them like 3 times. After improving all the butchering knives 3 times you should make another batch of butchering knives from the rest of the blades and wooden handles. You should notice a significant difference in success rate between two batches. Improve the second batch of butchering knives to average quality of the first batch. Then keep improving knives as your skill grows. after you gain about 30 skill in ws start thinking about making other weapons, be sure to have plenty of handles

More tips:

While you're Vynora follower be sure to have altar of Vynora nearby, it's highly possible that you get 10% more skill gain. Common sense...

Use sleep bonus, after login light forge and logout, log in back when stuff in forge will be glowing from heat (for 50ql forge it takes about 10-20 minutes, ql dependent factor)

For improving try using lumps/tools with ql at most 20ql higher than improved item!

Coc/woa tools might also be a nice boost for your skilling curve...

===Blades smithing===

If you feel like improving blades smithing, create 10-20 carving or butchering knife blades, and imp the blades to your skill + 5. Once you get this to about 25, there's really no point in going beyond, and start attaching them to handles and imping the tool.

===Weapon heads smithing===

If you want to improve your heads smithing skill, create 10-20 small axe heads and imp the blades to your heads smithing + 5. Once you get this to about 25, there's no point in going further and start attaching them to shafts and imping the true tool.

==Woodcutting==

Copied to [[Woodcutting Guide]]

To grind [[woodcutting]], the best way is to get a good [[Circle of Cunning]] [[Hatchet]] and start cutting down [[trees]] in the area you want to use/ build on. Make sure you repair the axe after every 5-20 uses to raise your [[Repairing]] skill. A good idea is to go to an area that is not populated, or areas infested with unwanted tree types (i.e. fruit trees), and ask any locals before cutting down the trees; this helps to avoid angering people and the sharp pointy things they will stick into you ([[Wild]] servers). If possible, harvest [[sprout]]'s with a [[sickle]] and replant the trees.

{{Cleanup}}
Here is the 'Tips for Skills' page. You can come to this page and put in info on how to raise a certain skill, e.g. what are the tricks of the trade and you can ask for help raising a skill.

==General==

Copied to [[Skillgain Guide General]]

Typical rule of thumb for optimal overall [[skill]] gain is creating items with a chance of 50% (as shown on the item's menu), or improving items 10 [[quality]] (ql) higher than the related skill.

In some skills and crafts there will be no actual displayed creation chance. [[Mining]] to cite one example.

'''Improving''' - Having the best tools and raw materials (resources) you can get your claws on is best. In addition, finding the one item in the skill that uses the least amount of raw materials for improving is desirable.

'''Creation''' - Having a creation chance around 50% seems to give the best skill gain. This chance is calculated based on a number of factors to varying degrees: skill, raw material ql, tool ql, and etc. The exact emphasis can differ from item to item. Typically the quality of the parts and tools have the most impact with skill playing a close second.

'''Enchantments''' - [[Circle of Cunning]] (CoC) and [[Wind of Ages]] (WoA) are both extremely helpful, except where specifically noted otherwise.

'''Altars''' - Working within the [[Religion#Domain_of_the_gods|domain]] of your [[Gods|god(dess)]] can add some bonus gain to certain skills. Most skills and crafts require one to be standing still, so it cannot hurt to have an [[altar]] nearby.

==Blacksmithing==

Copied to [[Smithing Guide]]

To get started it's best to have a forge of decent QL and good QL tools. This ensures that your forge will remain hot for longer and heat things faster, and that you will have less of a chance of failing while imping.

What I find handy when skilling up is to make multiple copies of an item and work on them all simultaneously. If you are also a miner or have ready access to unlimited ore, then you can work on any items you want. If you only have limited access to ore and/or are only working for skill, then your best bet is to create and improve needles. They use .001 lump to create, use hardly anything to imp, and you can fit a hundred in a bowl or jar.

Skill gain is faster the more difficult the work; improving items to 30 points below your level won't generate skillgain as fast as improving items to 10 below your skill level, and so forth.

==Jewelry smithing==

Copied to [[Smithing Guide]]

In order to practice jewelrysmithing you need the same tools as for any other smithing skill: whetstone, hammer, pelt, and water. The higher the QL of your tools, the greater the chance to succeed when improving.

To train JSing it is best to begin with making bowls for initial skill. Bowls can be made of any metal, resulting in high resource availability. As with all skills involving improving, you should endeavor to improve each bowl (and all subsequent items) to your skill plus 10 for maximum skill gain. Eventually, presuming access to silver or gold ore, you can progress to creating armrings. These have a relatively high creation chance for low-skill Jewelrysmiths, and are worth a pretty penny to traders. Their downside is that since they weigh 0.30 each, they consume a lot of gold lump per imp attempt. You can endure this extra lump cost for a while if you have ready access to ore, but if not it is best to skip armrings entirely and proceed to the final item: rings. While their creation chance is initially low, they only weigh 0.05, meaning that a 0.10 lump lasts for 30 uses.

==Carpentry==

Copied to [[Carpentry Guide]]

To raise [[carpentry]] the best way is building [[house|houses]] or grinding sub skills like [[fine carpentry]], [[bowyery]], [[fletching]] and [[ship building]].

Don't use [[Wind of Ages]] on your [[mallet]] when you're building, as it results in reduced skillgain.

For help in building houses, it is strongly recommended that you visit [[The "how do I build a house?" guide.]]

==Digging/Terraforming==

To grind [[digging]] skill up, use a good [[Circle of Cunning]] [[shovel]] and try not to keep your eye on the skillgain; trust me it seems like you get your skill up faster. Look for an area you want to [[Flattening|flatten]] or terraform, and then dig the areas needed and dump the [[Pile of dirt|dirt]] in areas needed. For example:-

You want a bit of land to be flat and you find out some of it is already flat so you dig the areas are not flat.
-------100--------Leave the same
-------100--------Leave the same
-------150-------- Dig 50 here
-------100--------Leave the same
-------100--------Leave the same

If there is only a small bit that needs terraforming then expand the area. Cut some trees down around the edge to make a 5x5 flat surface into a 10x10. Do this as much as you can and your skill will shoot up.

'''Remember don't look at the skills until you have finished at least a 5x5 surface'''

Note: Using the "Flatten" command will give A LOT more skill than simply digging. However its not as productive to randomly flatten areas.
 
For more information see the following guides [[Digging]] and [[Guides/FlatRaising]]

==Farming==

The best way to grind your farming skill is to start with ''Bread crops'' or [[Wemp]]. ([[Oat]], [[Wheat]] & [[Barley]]) You may wonder why, but the reason is that you ALWAYS gain seeds for replanting.

To get started so should you start with a 10x10 field for maximum skill gain. Get a small barrel and LOTS of time and you are set. (Read the [[Farming]] article for common farming knowledge.)

==Fighting==

copied to page [[Fighting Guide]]

There's two ways to train fighting, the safe way and the dangerous way:

I recommend using the safe way until around 10 fighting, then go off hunting.

===Safe way===

Create a [[practice doll]] and equip a shaft. Then beat it senseless for a bit, keeping its damage below 20 at all times. Never, EVER use a true weapon, especially a sword, on a practice doll. It's a complete waste of a good weapon and destroys the practice doll in no time. Not recommended. Equipping a shaft is a good weapon to use on a doll, or use a saw.

===Dangerous (but a heck of a lot more fun) way===

Go hunting. That's it. Just go hunting. You first want to try hunting down simple farm animals such as pigs, pheasants, roosters, bulls, cows, etc. Even wild cats work at the start. At around 10 fighting you want to get some leg protection and hunt down wolves. The wolves aim for the legs a lot, so leg protection will save you health in the end. Pheasants in particular can make an excellent training enemy as they will not follow you when you back away from the fight, giving you time to heal and regain stamina if necessary, especially if fighting with very low QL weapons for the skill gain.

==Melee weapons==

Melee weapons can be safely trained up to 20 in that respective weapon. All melee weapons, including [[mauls]] and [[clubs]], can be used on [[practice doll|practice dolls]]. Additionally, Both [[axes]] and [[swords]] can be used to safely hack at trees for skill up to 20. Skill beyond 20 requires usage of these weapons in actual [[fighting]].

The usage of weapons on dolls can inflict heavy damage on both doll and weapon. Practice dolls over 50ql are recomended.

Using axes and mauls gives [[body strength]]. Swords give [[body control]].

==Leatherworking==

The best way to gain skill is to simply improve [[grindstone]]s and other items that fall under the [[Stone cutting]] sub-category. Many towns don't allow [[statue]] spamming, as this contributes to lag, while [[grindstone]]s can fit in [[chest]]s and be carried easily, which is why they are preferred. The bonus to this is that you will also have higher %s on making [[stone brick]]s and [[stone slab]]s. Imping [[forge]]s and [[oven]]s is also great skill gain, but does add a large amount of clutter to an area.

Poolsclosed: /* Usage */ Shop sign confirmed paintable, uses 0.01 kg

[[CDB|Main]] / [[:Category:Skills|Skills]] / [[Alchemy]] / [[Natural substances]] / '''{{PAGENAME}}'''

'''Dye''' is made from various [[item]]s and [[water]] and is used to paint items and [[wall]]s.

=== Colors ===
* '''Black''' - [[Tannin]] and [[iron lump]]/[[iron scrap|scrap]] (difficulty 40, hardest dye to make)
* Blue - [[Woad]]
* Green - [[Copper lump]] or [[metal scrap|copper scrap]] (minimum .8 kg)
* Red - [[Cave bug]] or [[scorpion]] [[cochineal]]
* White - [[Zinc lump]] or [[metal scrap|zinc scrap]]

=== Tools required ===
* Any container that can hold [[liquid]]
* [[Jar]]
* [[Small bucket]]

=== Items required ===
* [[Water]]
* [[Cochineal]]
* [[Copper lump]] or [[metal scrap|copper scrap]]
* [[Tannin]] and [[iron lump]] or [[iron scrap]]
* [[Woad]]
* [[Zinc lump]]

== Method ==
# Put appropriate item in [[inventory]].
# Put water in [[container]].
# [[Activate]] item.
# Right-click on water in container and select "Create > Miscellaneous > <color> dye"

== Notes ==
* Resulting [[dye]] will have three color values: red, green, and blue.
* R=255 G=255 B=255 is pure white.
* Dye may be combined and the values will average out (although they will be about 2 points closer to grey across the board).
* The higher the quality is, the brighter and less grey the color will be.
* Dye and water cannot be mixed to make a paler dye.
* The more difficult colors can not be made until after making some of the easier colors. Start with green, or maybe blue.
* To get rid of unwanted dye, just right-click and select "[[Pour]]" (don't worry, it won't leave a stain).
* When making dye with metal lumps, there is no need to [[heat]] them up first.
* The [[quality]] of the [[cochineal]] does not affect the success chance when creating red dye.
* If [[failing]] to make green dye using a copper:
** A copper scrap of the same mass is created.
** The scrap is destroyed.

=== Usage ===
# Activate [[dye]].
# Right-click on item and select "[[Paint]]".

Paintable items include: building walls, chests, barrels, buckets, signs, carts, catapults, pottery, lanterns, statues, and ships. The amount of dye used depends on the item being painted:

== Introduction ==

Wurm currently has three types of server, entry, freedom and wild. A fourth type called epic (scenario lands) is planned. Currently not much information is know about this server type as its still in the planning and implementation phase. There is also a login server and a test server.

: [1] Only player assistants and game moderators can be in the HotS kingdom on entry servers.
: [2] Possible to duel and spar with other players.
: [3] As of 5th of June 2009 deeds can no longer be purchased on [[GV]] but existing deeds are allowed to remain.
: [4] It is expected that on the epic server there will be unique events and other things that do not occur on other server types.
: [5] Premium can be purchased but does not take effect until the player leaves the entry servers to another server type.
: [6] Player assistants are also present on entry servers to help new players.

== Server type details ==

=== Entry servers ===

Entry servers are where all new accounts are created. The server contains JK, MR and HotS, but HotS is limited to PAs and GMs. The aim of the entry servers are to let new players try the game for free in almost all its glory. Players may then move on from the entry servers to other server types using portals. Premium must be purchased to be able to do this and has no effect till the player leaves the server.
Entry servers only allow basic accounts, so skills are limited to a maximum of 20. This means resource quality is also limited to 20. There is also no gods or altars present on the entry servers.

PvP, theft, deeds, and [[guard tower]]s are not allowed on the entry server. On entry servers, decay is also 3 times faster and the server may be periodically reset (has not occurred yet).

=== Freedom servers ===

Fully owned by the native kingdom. The entire server is automatically claimed as kingdom territory, so guard towers are not required to plant deeds.
Theft, PvP, and other kinds of grieving are frowned upon, and are bannable offences in many instances. GMs will police these servers as needed, but ideally the game rules should take care of things automatically. Moderators police the kingdom chat channels to ensure the chat rules are followed.

See the freedom FAQ for more details.

=== Wild servers ===

Wild servers are battlegrounds where different kingdoms clash together. There is no pre-owned land, it must be claimed by constructing guard towers. Deeds can only be placed within the territories claimed by the towers.
Full PvP is enabled between kingdoms, as well as internally within your own kingdom. The [[white light]] and [[black light]] are found on the wild server. Each kingdom on wild has a leader and offices granted to players by the leader.
GMs generally avoid intervening in wild server affairs. However, excessive griefing and other violations of the game rules will be punished as appropriate. On wild servers monsters are tougher and the terrain is harsher. [''citation needed'']

=== Epic servers ===
Currently not much information is know about this server type as its still in the planning and implementation phase. Epic servers will run scenarios that form the story. A scenario will have permanent impact on the world and the success is dependent on the players.

[[Category:Misc]]
[[Category:Servers]]

=== Inter-server travel ===
It is possible to travel between the wild and freedom servers via portals at all of the capital deeds (Samling and Freedom Market on Freedom; the Landing, the Shroud and the Gold Coast on wild). The only items you can take with you when changing servers are coins, nodrop items (e.g. spyglasses, bags of keeping) and the starter tool kit. Each time you cross servers, 10 silver is deducted from your bank account as payment. Additionally, fighting and archery skills are subject to a 5% penalty when crossing if either is above 50, meaning a 70 skill fighter will end up with 66.5 fighting upon arriving.

Travel from the Golden Valley server is one-way only, and can only be done if your character is premium. Once you are on a premium server you may not go back to the Golden Valley, unless you start a new character.

=== Test servers ===
The test servers exists to test large game updates before they are added to the main servers. There is currently only one [[test server]].

Alignment

2010-01-23T11:24:47Z

Poolsclosed: /* Description */ Added praying at WL altar and put known values in, other values still need attention from a knowledgable priest

[[CDB|Main]] / [[Religion]] / '''Alignment'''

===Description===
Alignment is a measure of how good you are to your god, 100 alignment being maximum for [[Fo]], [[Vynora]] and [[Magranon]], -100 for [[Libila]]. When having below 1 alignment, you cannot choose any of the [[White Light]] [[Gods]]. For [[priest|priests]], a high alignment value increases chances to successfully cast [[:Category:Spells|spells]] while a low alignment value lowers the chances.

Alignment will automatically go towards 1 over time for whitelighters, and -1 for blacklighters.

If your alignment drops below 1 as a whitelighter, you will lose your faith.

The following things can effect your alignment:
* Butchering a human corpse (-)
* Burying a human corpse (+1)
* Listening to a [[confession]]
* Confessing to a priest (+5)
* Giving a [[sermon]]
* Listening to a sermon (+1)
* Converting someone to your religion
* Healing someone else (+1)
* Casting [[Bless]] on [[animal]]s and [[guard]]s. (+1)
* Sacrificing items in an [[altar]] (at least worth 50c get price) (+1)
* Praying at the [[White Light]] on the [[Wild server]]. (+3)

Gaining alignment to your choosen side has a cooldown timer. Once you gained alignment you have to wait 30 minutes before you can gain again.

Praying

2009-12-12T04:46:51Z

Poolsclosed: /* Description */

[[CDB|Main]] / [[:Category:Religion|Religion]] / '''Praying'''

===Description===
[[Praying]] can increase your [[faith]] and the rate at which you gain [[favor]]. You'll need to pray at an [[altar]] to gain faith.

You can pray as often as you want but only five prayers, spaced at least 20 minutes apart, will increase your faith in any 24 hour period. The 24 hours is determined by server uptime. Use the [[chat command]] '''/uptime''' to check this. In other words, you can pray five times between zero uptime and 24 hours, five more between one day and two days, etc.

You can pray at other locations than altars, depending on your [[Gods|god]]. While these actions will still give you prayer skill, praying at these locations does not increase your faith.

:* [[Fo]] - Very old trees.
:* [[Vynora]] - [[Water tiles]].
:* [[Magranon]] - [[Rock tile]]s.
:* [[Libila]] - [[Corpse]]s.

The [[skills|skill]] ''praying'' currently has no effect whatsoever, and will be removed or reworked later.

== [[Titles]] ==
* Reverent at 50 skill
* No title at 70 skill

Used to transport cargo over water, like masses of [[dirt]], [[rock shards]] and [[ore]]. Other things fit in too. Unlike a [[small cart]] it can also be picked up when empty.

Requires 6.05 kg of [[dye]] to paint with colour.

== Creation Failure ==

You will lose the [[Large Nails]]. Adding the other 7 nails will only result in small amount of damage.

'''Note''': Rafts put a massive strain on [[stamina]] so it is not advisable to drag them over large distances since you can [[drown]] very quickly.

Poolsclosed: /* Usage */ dye weight needed to colour raft

[[CDB|Main]] / [[:Category:Skills|Skills]] / [[Alchemy]] / [[Natural substances]] / '''{{PAGENAME}}'''

== Description ==
Dye is used to paint items and walls.

== Method ==
#Put substance in inventory.
#Put water in container.
#Activate substance.
#Right click on water in container, select create/misc/dye/colour
=== Tools Required ===
:* [[Jar]]
:* [[Small bucket]]

=== Items Required ===
:* [[Woad]]
:* [[Zinc lump]]
:* [[Copper lump]] or [[Metal scrap|copper scrap]]
:* [[Water]]
:* [[Cave bug]] [[cochineal]]
:* [[Scorpion]] [[cochineal]]
:* [[Tannin]] and [[iron lump]] or [[iron scrap]]

=== Resulting Colors ===
:*Blue - [[Woad]]
:*White - [[Zinc lump]] or [[metal scrap|zinc scrap]]
:*Green - [[Copper lump]] or [[metal scrap|copper scrap]] minimum 0.80 kg
:*Black - [[Tannin]] and [[iron lump]]/[[iron scrap|scrap]] Difficulty 40 (Hardest dye to make)
:*Red - [[Cave bug]] or [[Scorpion]] [[cochineal]]

== Notes ==
:* Resulting [[dye]] will have three color values, red, green and blue.
:* R=255 G=255 B=255 is pure white.

:* The higher the quality is, the brighter and less grey the colour will be.
:* Dye and water cannot be mixed to make a paler dye.
:* The more difficult colours can not be made until after making some of the easier colours. Start with green, or maybe blue.
:* To get rid of unwanted dye just right click and select "Pour" (don't worry, it won't leave a stain).
:* When making dye with metal lumps, there is no need to heat them up first.
:* The [[quality]] of the [[cochineal]] does not affect the success chance when creating red dye.

=== Usage ===
#Activate [[dye]]
#Right click on item, select Paint

You can paint building walls, chests, barrels, buckets, signs, carts, catapults, pottery, lanterns, statues and ships. The amount of dye used depends on the item being painted:

On certain tiles, there can be a pop-up after finishing meditating that allows you to start a path. There are thought to be many paths, though some are more easily found than others. Verified paths are: Knowledge, Power, Insanity and Love. There are also rumoured to be the Path of Honor.

To join a path you need to have at least 15 meditating skill.

Once you are on the path, a title will appear next to your name, similar to the [[champion]] title. Each step of the path brings a new title. At each step, you must wait for an increasing amount of time before you can advance to the next step on the path. Times between steps are shown in the section on Titles below. You can only follow 1 path.

The message you get to start each path seems to take the following form: "As you meditate upon these things you realize that there is a pattern of thinking that you can try to follow. If this path contains the truth or simply the figment of someone's imagination, you do not know. Nonetheless, it may pose an interesting challenge. Do you wish to embark on the philosophical journey of the path of X? If you answer yes, you will be challenged by the selected path as you visit more places like this one and mediate.". Answering yes will make you an adherent of that particular path, with the title of Uninitiated.

For the subsequent questions of each path, the dialog starts as follows: "If the path of X contains the truth or simply is the figment of someone's imagination, you do not know. Nonetheless, it poses an interesting challenge. The following question springs to mind", and is then followed by a new question with five possible [[Meditating answers|answers]].

Poolsclosed: /* Titles */ Minor typo correction

[[CDB|Main]] / [[:Category:Skills|Skills]] / [[Nature]] / '''Meditating'''

== Meditation ==
To meditate, use a [[:Category:Meditating rugs|meditation rug]]. Skill builds to 20 on all tiles, after that you have to join a path to get further skillgain. Once you have 20 skill, skill-gain is limited to 5 times every 3 hours.

== Paths ==

=== Starting and Following a Path ===

On certain tiles, there can be a pop-up after finishing meditating that allows you to start a path. There are thought to be many paths, though some are more easily found than others. Verified paths are: Knowledge, Power, Insanity and Love. There are also rumoured to be the Path of Honor.

To join a path you need to have at least 15 meditating skill.

Once you are on the path, a title will appear next to your name, similar to the [[champion]] title. Each step of the path brings a new title. At each step, you must wait for an increasing amount of time before you can advance to the next step on the path. Times between steps are shown in the section on Titles below. You can only follow 1 path.

The message you get to start each path seems to take the following form: "As you meditate upon these things you realize that there is a pattern of thinking that you can try to follow. If this path contains the truth or simply the figment of someone's imagination, you do not know. Nonetheless, it may pose an interesting challenge. Do you wish to embark on the philosophical journey of the path of X? If you answer yes, you will be challenged by the selected path as you visit more places like this one and mediate.". Answering yes will make you an adherent of that particular path, with the title of Uninitiated.

For the subsequent questions of each path, the dialog starts as follows: "If the path of X contains the truth or simply is the figment of someone's imagination, you do not know. Nonetheless, it poses an interesting challenge. The following question springs to mind", and is then followed by a new question with five possible [[Meditating answers|answers]].
