Found corpse - how long til it decay to a skeleton

Post by kirion »

I was exploring for food and strings when i stumbled upon the corpse of an unfortunate soul, probably murdered by a thousand ants.

Brought it back to base and now i'm wondering, how long until i can make a sweet skull pole? How long does a body take to decay into a skeleton?

EDIT : It decayed, so probably 8 hrs i guess?

About 24 hours since his death.
But you won't get your sweet pole, his skull is not going to be good enough to be used as a building material.

Exactly. For exact numbers, it is 50 INT and 50k(?) LP to become a "developed" hearthling. This is mostly so people have to jump a decent sized hoop to farm alts to make these things.
Opinions expressed in this statement are the authors alone and in no way reflect on the game development values of the actual developers.
