===The Rarity System===
save point
This mystical, magical, system which the developers have been very tight lipped upon how exactly it works creates items of an improved functionality.
** This is the highest rarity one can achieve, and it is excessively rare to spot in the wild.
===What exactly does the improvements do?===The improvement There is one universal rule for how rare items perform - when you [[Sacrifice]] the item at the altar of your god, you will be granted 99% Nutrition, Food and Water. If the item is Supreme, you will also get a rare (or better) status''random'' skill tick. If the item is Fantastic, the same as Supreme will occur but on a larger scale.
Further, the improvement a rare (or better) status grants varies extremely per item type. There is no other way to describe it.
There are a few rules to the madness, though.
'''Raw materials'''
This includes anything you use up to create something else, examples being [[Sand]], [[Dirt]], [[Planks]], [[Nails]] and so on.
Upon completely consuming the item - through improving with it, or creating an item with it - there is a ''small'' chance of its rarity transferring to the item that are being worked on exists. Very heavy emphasizing on SMALL.
'''Gathering Tools'''
Tools that are used to gather resources - for example [[Shovel]] or [[Pickaxe]], gets a slightly faster timer (0.1 seconds subtracted per rarity level) and provides a higher quality resource upon finishing the action. How much higher is determined by a multitude of factors;
* Your skill. The gains are severely reduced when producing resources over 90 QL
* The QL CAP of the resource. Only applicable to mining at the writing moment.
* The rarity of your tool. Rare grants 1.5 additional QL at low QL levels, Supreme and Fantastic more so.
* Note: The additional QL bonus ''can and will'' be above your skill level.
'''Boats'''
Each level of rarity adds another "shadow passenger" to the boat, thus making it go faster. The rarity level does '''NOT''' overcap the amount of passengers you can have, and you will lose the benefit if you fill the shadow passengers slot with an actual passenger.
Example;
You have a Fantastic [[Sailing boat]], which can hold 5 total players, the commander and 4 passengers.
[ ] = Empty Slot
[C] = Commander
[P] = Passenger
[S] = Shadow passenger
[C][S][S][S][ ]
So, without any additional players on your boat, you already have got 3/4 out of the maximum speed boost you get from passengers.
If you pick up two passengers, the situation will look like this;
[C][P][P][S][S]
This means that you've lost 1/3 of the bonus that the fantastic boat gives since it will not go over the cap on how much speed bonus a boat can get.
