Every player in wurm and every creature has assigned a specific combat rating at all times. However, it is a large bundle of variables, not only determined by your skill and equipment, but also by your location and your kingdom population.

''Fighting skill.'' One of the basic ways of acquiring a high combat rating is, of course, to get a high fighting skill. Your fighting skill gives different combat rating depending on whether you are fighting an NPC creature, or you're fighting in PvP combat. When fighting versus other players in PvP, every 5 levels bit of fighting skill yields 1 a bit of extra combat rating. When fighting in PvE versus monsters and guards, every 10 levels of fighting skill yield 1 combat rating.

''Kingdom bonus.'' A wild-only feature, there are two steps to this kingdom bonus. If your kingdom has less than 20% of the server online, you receive and extra 1 combat rating(untested). If your kingdom constitutes less than 10% of the server population, you gain another point of combat rating, yielding a total of 2 extra(untested).
