Here's a question what are top 10 skills which are enough for long term survival? Like you could buy those 10 and you could be good for as long as you want to play the game.

foraging
hunting
fishing
lumberjacking
carpentry
animal husbandry
leatherworking
plant lore
farming
cloth making

Those 10 are fairly essential to some degree but there are others that you should discover else your forever stuck where you are without outside help.

My character has no travel weariness right now, if that's something.
The pipe should light once filled and equipped.

Have you collected all the materials yourself and made the pipe? If you have not harvested tobacco, dried it, and then used the dried leave on a quern then you really don't know how to use the item. Same with the pipe. Have you collected the clay, formed the pipe, and then fired it in a kiln and removed it? If you have missed a step then things do not always work.

I didn't think discovery was necessary to use the pipe or any other equipment or tool, only to use it in crafting and building (ie discovering the recipe for it).
Opinions expressed in this statement are the authors alone and in no way reflect on the game development values of the actual developers.

Correct, just checked.

Yes, I've done both despite discovery not being required for a pipe. How many units of tobacco do I need to fill up a pipe? It won't let me put in more than 1 unit.

I'll test if the option appears once my character has travel weariness. If it doesn't, looks like smoking is bugged up for me.

One unit fills a pipe. Put on your Character screen, right click and light ...

The problem is that when I put a full pipe in my equipment screen and right click on it, the option to light up doesn't appear at all.

It has nothing to do with not having any travel weariness, my char has none either but can still smoke the pipe.

I'd go through the whole proccess of tobacco making from harvesting on and making another pipe to make sure it's no bug (and maybe even check with another client)

Return to “How do I?”
