You won't damage it. Soak is straight damage reduction, so the bare minimum for you to do damage to the wall is for both of you to have 529 strength and you both must be using the ram together.

Quick question guys :P !

I just entered my first cave, and just can't leave it! Oh noes! Maybe one of you have an idea of what should I do? I just tried clicking with left and right mouse button on the cave entrance, but my character simply tries to "walk" to the cave entrance.

Thanks for any help :mrgreen: !

Edit: the entrance I found was a natural one, not a created minehole.

Why is it that a Pea Pie has Charisma and Constitution FEPs?

Should it not have Strength and Perception FEPs?

The way I see it is that the baked product should have a percentage mixture of all the FEPs involved with the making of that end product.

If that would apply, then it would receive 0.3 Strength and 2.7 Perception FEPs at q10.



Maybe I just don't quite understand FEPs. I read what there is to be read about the FEPs on the WIki. But as to be expected there's not much real definition.

Usually you only need to go near the entrance and right click it. Are you sure the entrance isn't claimed?

If you really can't leave by clicking the minehole, you can always use the travel to hearth fire option, that way you will be back to your hearth fire (and therefore probably outside the cave, unless you built your hearth fire in there once you got in).

There isn't always a relationship between the cooked dish FEPs and its ingredients' FEPs. For instance, a spring stew has perception and charisma FEPs, even though none of the ingredients has charisma. From what I have observed the cooked dish always gives more total FEPs than the ingredients, but there isn't necessarily a relationship between them.

I think there should be. Maybe I should take my suggestion to C&I.

Can Mouflon break signs?

The wiki says that they can't break fences, but that doesn't tell me much.

As far as I know, they cannot. That is how people usually tame them, by individually surrounding each member of the herd with signs and then taming through the corners. The same applies to aurochsen. I have personally tested with aurochsen, never have I tested it with mouflons, though. It would be pretty safe to assume they have the same behavior, though. Especially considering that all taming tutorials teach the same technique for both, varying only for boars, since these break signs.

Deer, Boar, Bear do break signs
