Gameplay questions / Best Ways to Acquire Masterwork Fur Armor?

« on: October 21, 2023, 03:02:03 PM »

I'm curious if anyone has any observations regarding good ways to get masterwork fur armor.  I see it on foreign traders quite often, but they are unwilling to part with it in trade almost all of the time.  I've found some pieces for sale in Driik, even fewer for sale in Reemi.  Kaumo is almost always rough quality and the few places I've stopped in Koivula, Sarto, and Kiesse seemed to not really be worth my time to look there.  Maybe I should be looking to do more quests to get the lost treasure reward?

Gameplay questions / Can the player character be killed in one shot?

« on: April 13, 2021, 06:10:03 PM »

Sorry if this is obvious, but I'm wondering in the player character can actually die in one shot? When the pc goes unconscious we don't really see what happens exactly to our bodies before death, so maybe what really happens is something like eye shot, then kill shot to neck while unconscious?

Suggestions / Add something cool to the NE part of the map

I feel like the NE part of the map needs some love (north of njerpez.) Maybe this area could be harsher in terms of more wolves, colder winters, more njerpez or robbers? Or maybe more mystical? Or another faction... maybe aggressive or maybe temperamental?

Gameplay questions / Njerpez Encounters in 3.63

« on: March 27, 2021, 01:35:36 PM »

On some play throughs I like to hunt a lot of njerpez.  From reading the patch notes, it seemed like wandering njerpez would still be common in the Eastern part of the world, but I've encountered significantly fewer than previous versions. My last playthrough I had maybe 5 Encounters with wandering njerpez in about 1 year, almost all of that time in between kaumo and reemi.  I have been seeing quite a few war camps though which is pretty cool, and when I do meet wanderers they're usually 2-3 instead of 1.

Anyone have tips on finding more or getting war camps to spawn? War camps seem to have a chance at spawning randomly, maybe more often when you travel good distances in the Eastern world? Or maybe you just need to be within a certain distance to see them?  I think I cleared 6 in about 1 year in game in my last playthrough.

Not bugs / Minor bug: water craft and vanishing feathers

« on: March 05, 2020, 11:39:23 PM »

I think you usually can't land water craft where there are items, but I successfully landed in tiles where there were feathers and they disappeared. Maybe something to do with how light they are?

Suggestions / Clothing: Wear and Tear and Protection

« on: February 27, 2020, 08:07:17 PM »

It seems with the more recent releases that clothes don't degrade fast enough when damaged in combat.  I haven't really had to repair any of my current characters clothing, aside from his shoes.  Birch bark shoes seem to fall apart pretty quick but other than that footwear doesn't seem to degrade fast either, but footwear still degrades faster than the rest of my current characters armor who engages in combat pretty often.  I suggest that this be bumped up a bit, particularly for linen/nettle items.  I also think the current situation opens up somewhat of an exploit-

Protection values of degraded items.  Right now, it appears that if an item has protection level of 2, it will maintain that protection level until it has degraded to 50% or less.  This means that stacking linen/wool/nettle can be done with significant weight reduction.  Items with protection value of 3 seem unaffected by degradation of less than 33%.  I don't think this is bad per se, but with clothes not degrading quickly you can just use up some of your clothes for bandages/cords and just have lighter versions with the same protection.  If clothes degraded faster then 1 or 2 hits in combat could significantly reduce the protections of your almost half worn clothes so this wouldn't really be viable.

Edit: Also should probably add a chance for clothes to degrade in quality when you repair. With masterwork fur/leather you can use for cords and get fine cords then just repair with normal leather.

Gameplay questions / Njerpez War Camps

« on: February 26, 2020, 10:37:57 PM »

Had one pop up sort of near my settlement, had never seen one before. Do they just pop up at random now? I had seen they were possible in older versions, I'm assuming they put these back in for one of the recent versions.

General Discussion / Object maintenance?

I recently got the message that URW needed to perform object maintenance, anyone else ever receive that message? What's happening? I've seen map maintenance before.

Gameplay questions / All About Fishing

« on: October 06, 2018, 03:11:04 PM »

I'm starting this topic in hopes people will share anything they've experienced in game with fishing, and for people to ask any questions. 

On my characters I like to fish without rods or nets, and it seems like regardless of using spear or club type weapons you pretty much only catch pike unless you're in a rapids or deep sea tile.  I've caught burbot in deep sea and rapids, and salmon and burbot in rapids.  Anyone else share the same experience?

Also, the wiki says that spears are superior to clubs for fishing, I'm not sure I've experienced this to be true.  Early game I tend to just use a rock and it seems to work just as well as a javelin?  Does the type of spear or club matter?  Does attack bonus or anything play a part?  I'm assuming better quality is good.  Can using a different type of spear or club result in different fish caught?
