It's Massively Multiplayer Wurm Online Fantasy Simulator is many things, but first and foremost it is a survival MMO. In Wurm you must struggle to survive, at least in the beginning. You must find your own food, your own water (MMOFSwith the exception of the first 24 hours of game play thanks to the [[bartender]]), and your own shelter. Joining a settlement is one great way to find all of these things at your fingertips. Once you have mastered the basics of survival you can go on to build great structures, master a trade, and combat the enemies of your kingdom!

:'''Read More''': [[Chat]] | [[Chat commands]] | [[Wurm staff|Chat Moderator]] ===The First Day= Servers and accounts ==See After going through the tutorial, use the [[portal]] to go to a server. Each starting city has many important items, such as a [[bartender]], [[token]], [[well]], and [[Account Typesvillage recruitment board]] . To start, find the bartender and right-click to ask for refreshments. If you decide to join a [[settlement]], you may use the village recruitment board to help you in your search. Settlements are also known as deeds or villages. The token provides you with access to your [[bank account]], which is a safe place to store your in-game [[currency]] and up to 5 items.  For your first 24 hours of play time in Wurm you will receive the benefits of food from the bartender and a divine light source. You also receive other benefits that you can see by hovering over their icons in the top right of your game window. This is to let you learn the game and give you time to become self-sufficient by finding food and water and creating your own light source. You are given a tent that can be dropped on the ground and used to securely store items. It is also used as a [[respawn]] point if you die. This can be used temporarily until you build your first house as the tent will decay if left on the ground. You can empty the tent and pick it back up again if you wish to move. You need a 2 x 2 tile space that is not on a deed or within the [[perimeter]] of a deed, that is clear of obstructions and other structures, and that is not at or below water level, in order to drop your tent.  :'''Read More''': [[Beginners Tools]] | [[Inventory]] | [[Settlement]] | [[Death]] | [[Secure Storage]] | [[Starter tent]] ===Using Items===;Activate: Most tools must be '''activated''' to be used.

== Common problems of new players ===== How do I change game options/settings? How do I get better frame rates?Basic Needs===On Your food and water indicators are at the top left of the log-in screen, there is a "Settings" buttonas well as your [[nutrition]] indicator. More information Running low on those settings can be found water will make your actions take longer and make you regenerate [[Client Configuration|herestamina]]. For advice on settings for slower or older computers look [http://forum.wurmonlineFood also has a similar effect when it gets low, and if you have any nutrition left, you will fast when your food drops to 8%.com/index.php?/topic/63471-configuring-the-client-looking-nice-while-running-on-low-settings/ here[[Fasting]]refills your food indicator, but removes a percentage of your nutrition.
=== How can I customize my appearance?===In Starting cities have wells that you may use to obtain water. You may also find fountains and larger bodies of water in your inventory there will travels, any of which may be an item called used for drinking or filling a [[:Item:Hand mirror|Hand mirrorcontainer]]with water to take with you. By right mouse-clicking it Some containers useful for storing water include a [[pottery jar]], a [[waterskin]], and choosing Use, you will open a window where you can modify how your character looks in game[[small bucket]]. This item is a one-use object, so be sure you are satisfied with your appearance before confirming you are done modifying!

I can* To drink from a well, fountain or partially or fully submerged tile, '''right-click''' and select '''Drink'''t see===* If itTo fill a container from a well or fountain , '''activate's dark because it's night time ' the container and then you could make a [[personal lights|light source]] such as a lantern '''right-click''' to open the well or a torchfountain, then '''right-click''' on the water and select '''fill'''.* The game features full day/night cycles To fill a container from a tile, '''activate''' the container and nighttimes are fairly dark. Time in Wurm is 8x real time so then '''right-click''' the darkness should only last 1 to 1.5 hours.* The problem may lie with your graphics card. Check to see if it features a gamma adjustment setting. If so turn it up very hightile and select '''fill'''.
=== WhatFor food, you can locate '''Resource nodes''', '''right-click'''s the difference between equip them and select '''Lore''' to see if they might contain food and activate?===An active item select '''Forage''' or '''Botanize''' to try to collect their contents. It may take some time to find items you can be used eat and you will need to interact with search around to find the world around you, like cut a [[tree]] down with your [[hatchet]] activeright type of Resource node that has edible food in it. You equip can also use your carving knife or a weapon which is butchering knife to butcher meat from animals you have killed or corpses of animals that you are allowed to butcher. '''Activate''' the knife and '''right-click''' the corpse, then used automatically while in [[Fighting|combat]]select '''butcher'''. Once you are done, '''right-click''' the butchered corpse and select '''open''' to see the contents. To eat food, '''right-click''' the food and select '''eat'''. The quality and type of food determines how much nutrition you gain or lose when eating, and hot food restores more nutrition than cold food.
=== How do I activate an item?===Double-click on it. It will show up at the bottom of the [[inventory]] next to :'''Active:Read More''' This means that you can use the item for the tasks it is designed for.: [[Campfire]] | [[Cooking]] | [[Firemaking]] | [[Food]] | [[Water]] | [[Woodcutting]] | [[Leatherworking]] | [[Pottery]] | [[Foraging]] | [[Botanizing]] | [[Resource nodes]]
=== How do I equip a weapon?Next Steps===Put it in You may want activate your pickaxe and seek out an [[inventory|right handiron vein]]. A second inside a [[:Category:Weapons|weaponmine]] can go in the for some [[inventory|left handiron ore]], but it is used less often, so put your main weapon in your or '''right hand.

=== What can I do with a toolbelt?===A :'''Read More''': [[ToolbeltMining]] |toolbelt[[Blacksmithing]] is | [[Guides:Build House|Building a piece of house]] | [[HUDLight sources]] that allows you to place up to ten tools or materials on it for quick selection.

Default is <code>bind 1 ACTIVATE_TOOL1</code> and so on, up to 10.
==Exploring= Where do I get a pelt?===A [[pelt]] is a product from [[large rat]]s, [[wild cat]]s, [[mountain lion]]s, and [[dog]]s. In order to get one, first try asking if someone in the area already has one, as they can be very common (and usually [[decay]] if stored and not in the [[player]]'s inventory). You may be lucky enough to find one for sale at a [[trader]] or [[merchant]]. Alternatively, find and kill one of these animals and use a [[butchering knife]] to butcher the corpse. If you are successful, you may get a pelt, [[meat]], and other animal parts.
=== I'm so lost, how do I open up the map?===There are no ingame in-game maps in Wurm Online and ({{key|m}}), however, you will still have to rely on your [[compass]], navigational skills , and wits. To open up the in-game map click the 'map button' on your quickbar (the icon resembles a globe). Luckily , there are out of game player made [[Maps|player made maps]] that will help you get a general idea of where you are. When you enter or leave a [[Settlement|settlement]] you will get a message in the [[Interface and controls#Event window|event window]] telling you the name of the settlement ("You leave Blossom"). [[Examine|Examining]] the ground tiles in and around a settlement can tell you information like "This is within the village of Blossom" or "This is within the [[Settlement#Perimeter|perimeter]] of Blossom". The [[settlement token]] of a [[Settlement|settlement (deed)]] has a compass on top. Asking for directions in local chat might help you on your way as well.
=== Can I starve to death or die of thirst?Movement===No. If those bars are empty, you won't be able to perform some [[Body stamina|stamina]]-draining actions (like [[mining]]) and your stamina will recharge very slowly. If you have enough fat reserves and your food bar drops to 6-8%, you will fast. A message in the [[event window]] will say: "Your hunger goes away as you fast" and your hunger bar will be filled again. For more information on how many times you can fast, the effects on your nutrition level and how to build up new fat reserves, look [[Starvation|here]].
Note that your thirst bar will not be filled when you fast, '''Why am I moving so you need to either stay near [[water]]/water sources or carry a [[container]] that is able to hold liquids (like a [[pottery jar]], [[water skin]], [[small bucket]] etc.).slowly?'''
=== Why am I moving so slowly?===
There are many factors that can reduce your speed:
* Rough terrain([[Moss]], [[Clay]], [[Sand]], [[Peat]], [[Tar]])
* Carrying heavy loads
* Wearing armour
Also, make sure the "[[Climbing]]" toggle is switched off.
=== '''Why can't I get out or move at all?===''' 
If you get stuck in a large pit or cave, first try the [[Climbing]] toggle or <code>/stuck</code> command. If you definitely cannot get out, or if you find a bug or glitch etc, then type <code>/support</code> to contact any of the GM's if they are online. Please use this feature sparingly.
=== '''Why won't my [[Body stamina|stamina]] regenerate?===''' 
This may be caused by lag, having "Hungry" and/or "Thirsty" in the [[Interface and controls#Statusbar|status bar]], swimming, or your [[Climbing]] toggle is activated. If you are being attacked, your stamina bar also will not regenerate and you may not be able to move away fast enough to get away in order to regain stamina which leaves you in a very dangerous situation.
=== How do '''I think I've chosen a wrong server! Can I make moneytravel to another one?===Unlike other games you may have played, [[Bank of Wurm|money]] is not gained from killing monsters, but rather from the sale of items you have crafted to other players and [[traders]]. You could also convert real-life <strong>&euro;</strong>'s<sup><small>(Euros)</small></sup> into Silver<sup><small>(Wurm currency)</small></sup> using the [http://store.wurmonline.com/ Wurm store]...''
=== How do I use a large anvil?===The [[large anvil]] can only be used when dropped It is possible to sail across some server borders, depending on the which cluster it belongs to. Read [[TileServer types#Server travel map|groundhere]] for more information. It is however not easy for a starter account to get a boat (unless you buy one from another player), so choose the server you want to play on wisely. If you are joining friends already playing: check and making an [[iron lump]] activedouble check with them which server they are on.
=== What weapon should I create first?Creatures===Although a 10 [[Quality level|quality]] [[short sword]] is good for killing [[Large rat|rat]]s and such, most experienced players will advice you to skip it and try to make a [[long sword]]. It's a bit harder to make, but in the long run it will pay off. If you choose a one-handed weapon, you can either dual wield for added attack 'Friend or use a shield for added protection. Look here for more information on [[axes]], [[mauls]], [[polearms]], [[swords]], [[archery]] and [[shields]]. And here for [[fighting]].foe?''
=== What Creatures are percentages on creating items?===The percentage listed on the create menu is the chance that abundant in Wurm Online; from [[sheep]] to [[dragons]], [[crocodile]]s to [[rooster]]s. You can normally tell if you will succeed, all modifiers taken into account're about to be eaten by one by looking at their hover outline - red for aggressive and blue for passive. However Some creatures may even be [[mount|ridden]] or [[tame]]d as [[pet]]s, unlucky streaks can some may be slaughtered for their [[hide]] and will happen[[meat]]. Failing ten times in As a row new player you probably want to start small though, no picking fights with 95% success rate is very bad luck, not a bug[[troll]]s or [[bear]]s. Stick with smaller passive animals like [[hen]]s or [[dog]]s until you feel confident and obtain some reasonable [[armour]]. Local guards may be called to help your battle by shouting '''guards!''' in the local chat window - just make sure you're in range! :'''Read More''': [[Creatures]] | [[Cooking]] | [[Taming]] | [[Fighting]] | [[Mounts]] | [[Guard Tower]]
=== I think I've chosen a wrong server! Can I travel to another one?=Death==It [[Death]] is inevitable in Wurm. Most players find that the game is possible much more fun if you get out and explore, hunt, and fight. While there are ways to sail across some server bordershelp reduce the chances that you’ll die during your adventures, depending on which cluster it belongs is also important toknow what to do when Death comes knocking. Read You’ll find the game less frustrating if you understand what happens when you die, how and where you respawn, and how to find your [[Server typesDeath#Server travel mapYour_corpse|corpse]] full of loot. When you die, there is a good chance you will want to find your corpse to retrieve any valuables you had in your inventory. One option is to look at your event tab or logs to see the last settlement you passed through. If you still can’t find the corpse but you do have enough [[karma]], you can use [[Karma|hereSummon corpse]]. When you don’t have the karma needed, another option is to find a friendly priest who can cast [[Locate soul]] for more informationyou. Death will also have a [[Death#Death_penalty|negative impact]] on your skills depending on the circumstances, often losing random points from 5 skills. You cannot die from thirst or [[starvation|hunger]], however your stamina will be affected, meaning you cannot perform some [[Body stamina|stamina]]-draining actions like [[mining]] or [[climbing]], and your stamina will regenerate very slowly. If you have enough [[fat]] reserves and your food bar drops to 6-8%, you will [[Starvation|fast]].

They are cross functional to an extent, but at some point having both is required. The percentages listed on the create menus is the chance that you will succeed, taking into account tool and material quality, and your skill. However, unlucky streaks can and will happen. Failing ten times in a row with 95% success rate is very bad luck, not a bug. Any items in red cannot be crafted with your current skill level. The 25 [[Quality level|quality]] [[long sword]] you get at the beginning is barely good enough for killing [[Large rat|rat]]s, so choose the server you may want to play on wiselyconsider creating yourself a new weapon that may be [[improve]]d, or even go for a new [[shield]].
