Wurm is a bad game and run by criminals who avoid tax, if you play this game you will suffer harsh punishments by law.

== Introduction ==
 
 
 
Wurm currently has the following types of servers that players can access:
 
:*Tutorial (Also known as Golden Valley)
 
:*Freedom cluster 1 [[PvE]] (Independence, Deliverance, Exodus, and Celebration)
 
:*Freedom cluster 2 [[PvE]] (Pristine and Release)
 
:*Freedom cluster 1 [[PvP]] (Chaos, which used to be called Wild)
 
:*Epic [[PvP]] (Elevation, Desertion, Affliction, and Serenity)
 
 
 
'''Other servers'''
 
 
 
There is a [[test server]] which allows testing of new game content.
 
 
 
[[Astrology:Valrei|Valrei]], a moon of Wurm, has a special server on which battles between the gods take place.  We mere-mortals can not visit the moon with our avatars, but we can follow these events remotely via a twitter feed and maps. Avatars on the Epic servers can assist their god by completing missions, and can potentially be rewarded for their efforts. ''See [[Scenarios]] for more information.''
 
 
 
Finally there is a logon server which is part of the Wurm infrastructure used to manage accounts.  If this server is down, no accounts can logon to any of the other servers.
 
 
 
== Server travel map ==
 
You can sail across some server borders, depending on which cluster it belongs to. This will leave your skills and items intact. Animals cannot cross server borders.
 
 
 
You can use an [[Epic portal]] to travel between a Freedom cluster and the [[Epic cluster]]. Please read [[Epic portal|here]] what happens to your skills and items!
 
 
 
''Notes: ''
 
*''At this moment it is not possible to travel between Freedom cluster 1 and Freedom cluster 2. A character on Epic who has once chosen to travel to Freedom cluster 1 cannot use the Epic portal to go to Freedom cluster 2, and vice versa.''
 
*''Currently Pristine and Release are inaccessible by any other means than traveling to them from the tutorial.''
 
 
 
For an overview see the [http://wurmmapsearch.net84.net/Overmap.html Travel map].

== Server type details  ==
 
 
 
=== Tutorial server ===
 
 
 
The Tutorial server (Golden Valley) is where all new accounts are created. The aim of the tutorial is to introduce the player to the game mechanics.  Players may then move on from the tutorial area to any of the player servers using [[portal]]s. (Premium must be purchased to be able to move to the Elevation server.)
 
 
 
Premium time has no effect till the player leaves the server, as the Tutorial server only allows basic accounts. Thus skills are limited to a maximum of 20 and resource quality is also limited to 20. There are no gods or altars present on the Tutorial server.
 
 
 
The tutorial was built on the Golden Valley server.  New players are spawned in the tutorial area and cannot leave other than through the portals to the Epic and Freedom servers.  However accounts that were active before the tutorial was created are currently able to stay outside the tutorial area.  These accounts are able to transfer to the other servers, but some have chosen to remain.  PvP, theft, deeds, and [[guard tower]]s are not allowed on the Tutorial server.
 
 
 
=== Freedom servers cluster 1 ===
 
 
 
The entire area of each server is automatically claimed as Freedom kingdom territory, so guard towers are not required to plant deeds.
 
 
 
Grieving is frowned upon, and is a potentially bannable offense. [[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.
 
 
 
The original Freedom server was Independence. The second one was Deliverance, which is situated to the South border of Independence.  This was followed by Exodus, to the South border of Deliverance.
 
 
 
The old Wild server became the fourth server to join Freedom. It is now known as the Chaos server and can be accessed by sailing across the west border of any of the three servers above. However, sailing back east across the border from Chaos will only take you to Deliverance.
 
 
 
Most recently, Celebration [http://wurmonline.tumblr.com/post/24127944261/celebration-opened/ release note] was added to the South border of Exodus.  At this time, it is not connected to Chaos.
 
 
 
=== Freedom servers cluster 2 ===
 
 
 
Follows Freedom servers rule set (see above). This is a new cluster starting with Pristine at the official release of Wurm Online 1.0 which won’t be connected to freedom cluster 1 for an undetermined amount of time in order to provide that total newbie feeling. The second one was Release, which is situated to the South border of Pristine.
 
 
 
=== Chaos server ===
 
 
 
The Chaos server is a pvp enabled freedom cluster server. It can be access by sailing west from any other freedom server. Upon arriving here you are automatically in the Freedom Isles kingdom and can join other Player Made Kingdoms. Sailing back to the other servers will put you back in the Freedom Isles kingdom and coming back will put you back to whatever kingdom you were in when you left.  
 
Full PvP is enabled here between the Freedom Isles and Player Made Kingdoms. You can fully raid deeds, pick locks and bash things on deed.
 
 
 
GMs generally avoid intervening in wild server affairs. However, excessive griefing and other violations of the game rules will be punished as appropriate.
 
 
 
=== Epic servers ===
 
Please refer to [[Epic Cluster]] for more information on these servers.
 
 
 
=== Test server ===
 
The [[test server]] exists to test large game updates before they are added to the main servers.
