Traps

[bmjclark]

In world 4, i was wondering around in someones town (yes i was asking for it). Someone scared the hell out of me when i walked into a house (thought the town was abandoned), he engaged in combat with me, and i killed him. As i walked back outside, there were 4 people standing in a circle around the entrance to the house. Not thinking, i run back into the house, they follow me, i slip by and get back outside. After 45 minutes of boating up and down the river, I finally get out of combat long enough to hearth away. Sadly, i died to lag in a river 4 days later. Karma is a bitch =).

i've failed yesterday to trap some aurochs. They was finely trapped, but when i went to pick up theyr hairs, my chara trepassed the fences DUNNO HOW and i was stuccked inside. Killed immediately.

Dunno if i'm died for a bug or not, then O.o

This happens to me in W4. But I wore good bronze armor an there was my boat near the shore. I broke one of the cornerposts and run to safeness of the boat.

I've already told this story, but it's relevant to the topic, so whatever.

During my travels through World Four, I spotted a chest laying out in the open on the side of a river. Thinking it was odd, but curious about it's contents, I decided to take a look and completely neglected to turn on X-Ray. Sadly, the chest was empty, but I found myself with a bigger problem on my hands than a lack of lost treasures. I was instantly locked in combat by a pair of guys, one of whom hopped in my boat to cut off an easy escape. They said I was going to come with them for a little boat ride, and that they'd kill me if I tried to run away.

A quick glance at my character sheet showed me the folly of spending more on Exploration than on any of the combat stats, especially since they had bronze gear and I only had leather. Considering my options, I shrugged and figured that if they wanted me dead, they would have slaughtered me and stolen my stuff already. I got in the boat that the second one brought out from behind another tree and we proceeded on our merry little way.

The gentleman that was steering told me that I'd be working for them now. A short distance up the river, we came to a palisade wall that would become my new home. He said that there were beautiful dreams inside, along with branches, so he could lock the door and ensure that I couldn't leave. Given that I was still locked in combat with them, I couldn't exactly travel back to my hearth, so I guess he had thought this all through.

What he didn't account for was human error. The other guy left his boat in the water for a moment too long, and I promptly made my escape by hopping into it and rowing for all I was worth.

Good times.

Wow. That's some chutzpah there on their part.
