When drinking water while swimming, don't do it immediately or you will refill your stamina immediately and it will stop drinking.
I learned the very hard way yesterday.

Don't swim until you have 60+ constitution and know the tricks to do it.Ninijutsu wrote:When drinking water while swimming, don't do it immediately or you will refill your stamina immediately and it will stop drinking.

(Swimming is doable in the 40 con range, but with potential lag outs and whatnot, it is safer to have more just incase)

My son, walk not in the way unarmed; because thou knowest not when thy enemy shall come upon thee.

It's insanely easy to swim anyways. It's possible with the water trick to swim a river with like 20 const (i don't recommend it) and swimming can save your life.ImAwesome wrote:anyone else think the skill should be removed completely? boats aren't that hard to find...I built 3 my first day in this world and found about a dozen more

Swimming is really useful when you are tracking someone far away and don't want to carry a boat at crawl speed.ImAwesome wrote:anyone else think the skill should be removed completely? boats aren't that hard to find...I built 3 my first day in this world and found about a dozen more
Also It can save your life or end someone's else.
When shit hits the fan you won't have 3 days to make one, and I believe that people won't be happy with you stealing their boats for an "emergency".
I'd also recommend switching gradually to barbarism when you can access INT boosting gear or in a higher grade of development. Going full barbarism is the only way to get a CON boost.

You can swim a river with 10 con and a water skin full of q10 water. You don't need 60 con lol
