You go from zero to yeomanry in 10 minutes?

Video or it didn't happen...

Can confirm, discoveries.

You can do that on a wilderness spawn?

Edit: That would be 80+ items to discover (given 50LP per item)...

Global resources in their current form are pretty dumb in my opinion, icicles being the dumbest, I think salt sounds pretty shitty too but isn't such an issue at world start due to limited access to high FEP food.
Should cause a 0hp wound that prevents using another for X days. It's the fact you can chain them that sucks, 10k LP headstart is one thing, 100k+ is an entirely different beast.

Build a beacon first, for the yeomanry char, but yeah, you can get 5k LP on a freshspawn through discoveries very fast

With concussions you effectively multiplied the penalty for fucking up whatever way, please keep in mind that a game should be fun.


Theres this thing called sprinting and drinking. If you cant even outrun a boar or a badger you're gonna die soon anyways.

There's also bat-shit caves that you enter and get aggro, or you port to your fire and get insta-kissed by a boar.

That's how I dropped my first Personal claim, If I was an even cheekier bastard, I could have suicide my guy and expanded the claim quite a lot by rediscovering and dumping.

Set my radar to show all rocks, trees, and bushes, then I slowly check each one off as I walk around the world. Include in discoveries for rabbits, squirrels, frogs, toads, rats, digging, water, dreams, etc

edit: I would like to edit in that I am also subbed, so I get dat phat 30% more lp

SO the question is, each resource spot has a random chance to get spawn from a pool of resources. This limits the max. spawn in the world and is a good idea. Once a specific spot has that spawn, it can only be drawn from that location or can it be drawn by anyone from any node on the map?

If it stays on the specific node, i have some nodes i need to go out and claim today :)
