W11 Hearthing back

Post by Undercio »

Simple thing that actually breaks a game.
hearthing back costs are unnacteptabe. make it like 1-2% of travel weariness maybe - no matter the way, or simply remove costs of hearthing back!
simple tutorial (if u follow) gives u 5% travel weariness to complete "walk further away from hf, and tele back to it" (or something named like that)

hearthing back shouldnt cost a thing.
vote up, weve all got used to it.

Legacy mechanic. TW doesn't prevent hearth home,only charter and road travel. I have been expecting this since w8 was released, really.

Will have to say playing without it has been nice, but there's just been too much bouncing around. Travel should have a cost.

Also, moved to C&I.

That. Not game breaking.

May be legacy stuff, still one that shouldnt be used (if legacy, make a legacy wine too to reduce tw)
its not fair, hfing back shouldnt give any debuff... making roads use tw is well enough... the only one positive changes about tw is will vs charisma.

I never had an issue with TW in legacy unless I was hopping around various villages or roads. Road networks were usually split up and players planned for longer journeys by carrying wine and other reducing items. I'm not going to say that it's too harsh or not as of yet. testing needed.

Will say we could use that spruce bed back, though, so we can start sleeping off the travel weariness. Otherwise we have to wait for cloth to build beds.

Did you add a better way to remove TW instead of just beds and heartwood leaves? Or just going to leave it as more crippling? Legacy had wine to reduce TW, so it was manageable

Its in there, just can be built from any thatching material.

I agree that the TW cost is a bit steep, perhaps if there was a range (a few minimaps) where it cost VERY little. Mind you, we're all new characters, maybe once we have some stats it will be more affordable.

Must have missed it, then, or haven't picked up the needed skill(s) yet.
