Today was FINALLY the day that lingonberry would be ready, to study and harvest. These plants only grow on tundra, and can’t be created by other players, so after the dragon slaying on Pristine, I stuck around for a full day since it was on the tundra. I have just a few more reports to complete, and then my almanac (and thus my journal entry) will be done. It has taken a while, but I’m pretty pleased that I remembered to do it at all.
Another public slaying! This time the reward was some scale and a bit of butchering blood. I’m very close to having my knife finished with potions, so of course I took myself (Stargrace) + 3 priests to Pristine for this one. Someone brought along the token zombie champion whale, too. They’re neat, but they block so much of the view!
As always, happy gaming, no matter where you find yourself.
There are some HUGE deeds out there in Wurm Online – mine is not one of them. I currently own three deeds, Quail Cove (main deed, upkeep is 1s10c a month), Quail Landing (mainland deed, upkeep is 1s60c a month), and the latest, Quail Island (upkeep is 2s a month). I’m paying less than 5s a month for upkeep all together for my deeds, and I feel like this is a perfect number for me. I can sell a few treasure maps and cover the cost of the deeds, and I tend to top them up to a year of upkeep once every few months. Anything larger would be too hard to handle (I feel). I haven’t planned anything out on the island deed yet, but the other two are well established and created places, with lots of buildings, bridges, and ‘stuff’ everywhere to make them feel lived in. Well, Cove more than Landing, as that one is newer and still a work in progress.
Anyway. I love looking at the gigantic deeds, but I know in my heart owning such a huge piece of land is just not for me. I like my cozy country feel, and I think if I were to have a gigantic deed it would just cause me a lot of burn out. What about you? Do you prefer small or large deeds? Let me know in comments below, and as always happy gaming, no matter where you find yourself!
There is never a lack of things to work on in Wurm Online – and I tend to keep a list running of everything that needs attention. What are those things these days?
Like I said, there’s never a lack of things to work on – and that’s what I love about Wurm. Even when you think you’re close to being ‘done’ something drags you (sometimes kicking and screaming) back in. As always, happy gaming, no matter where you find yourself!
Talk about being in the right place at the right time. I was out doing treasure maps today when Schiann walked into a red dragon (she was out doing treasure maps as well). I was pretty close by, so I offered to help. I told Moumix there was an impromptu slaying taking place, and he managed to get a summon. Faralithe (my Fo priest) was ready to help, so she received a summon and Schiann ran home to get a few more horses.
There were 35 participants, and it was a lot of fun. It was also the first time in 12 years that I got to participate in a slaying that wasn’t posted ahead of time for the public. Normally I miss out on these types of slayings, and the market is quite controlled by just a few players.
Schiann received the rare bone from the kill, and the other bits were rolled on (skull, body, meat, etc). All in all, it was not a bad way to wrap up my treasure hunting! Maybe I’ll get to participate in a few more of these in the future.
As always, happy gaming, no matter where you find yourself!
