Gameplay questions / Re: "The forest around looks extremely hostile."

« on: March 11, 2018, 01:38:33 AM »

My first character was always on the spirits' bad side.  He was a kaumo that got most of his food via pole fishing with a few small (bird) traps thrown in.  I feel like I was sacrificing a fish every day or so but I'd get lots of messages about the waters around looking scary.  I wasn't catching more fish than I would eat.  I don't know if that lead to his downfall but I can say that the lake where he lived was infested with njerpez, but it was robbers that finally did him in.

My current guy is an owl tribe sniper, definite olympic athlete.  He gets no food from fishing and nearly all from hunting big game with the bow.  The spirits seem to love this guy and I frequently see messages about feeling at one with the forest, even while chopping down many trees to build a smokehouse in a spruce mire.  Beside the food source this character started with the ritual of greeting the earth spirits before sleep, and uses it most every night.

Has anyone found masterwork versions of: northern knife, northern spear, kaumo knife or kaumo spear?  I have been exploring many northern villages and I haven't found a single one of these in my world.

I have found masterwork northern bows and rarely fine versions of the above.  I found masterwork versions of most other tools and weapons in the driik villages.

One other thing I was never able to find was the Skramasaksi and I think I visited every sartola village on my journey north.

Suggestions / Re: Reduce the difficulty of climbing trees

I think anything carried gives severe penalties when climbing trees.  I was going nuts trying to find a wounded adventurer's camp so I started using it in desperation.  I didn't have any mishaps after I started dropping everything, even taking off heavy winter clothes beforehand.  This character isn't even maxed out on climbing skill.
