Description

Decay is the erotion of items and man made structures in game. There are several ways to reduce it.

Decay Rates

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