Breaking your own hearthfire. Easier, please?

Post by freckleskitty »

SO yes, after creating a new character, and trying ot move to my friends village, i finally realised how hard it was for newbies to actually destroy their own hearth fire.

IM asking one thing, and one thing only, please make your own hearth fire easier to destroy for yourself.


I've been stuck here, and ive wasted 1000% stamina and only hit the hearth ONCE

You can probably understand my misery.

You should need 36 str to damage it. They shouldn't be breakable so easy, this seems like more of an exploit than it is a feature (the whole warping to villages/random places by breaking hearth) to be honest.

Mind you, you don't need to destroy the hearth fire; just build a new one in the new place, and the old one will become an ordinary pile-of-wood.

He wants his hearthfire destroyed so he can warp to a town no matter what his tw is, thus us pointing out that this is rather an exploit than a feature.

I see. That is indeed an exploit.

In reality, I'd like hearthfires to be indestructible for all practical purposes. The only problem with that is that they could be used to grief.

Hearth Fires should defianatly not warp you to a village at all, its mainly an Exploit as others should. It shouldn't even be destroyable.
