If 0,0 is bottom left, then wouldn't I be more like 3,3? Oh, wait a minute ... I'm looking at it wrong. I see what you're talking about now. Yeah, I was looking at my position within the square, not the whole world. So I am indeed 6, 2. While we're on that subject though, what's the body count like up there where you are? I count 19 towns in this square right now, with what seems like a fairly busy amount of foot traffic; i.e. I usually see 8-10 people working wherever I'm working and there's a whole lot of little dots scattered random that I assume are people who are in the quandrant but aren't actively working or sleeping at the moment.

way I see it, first player who started were all started at the very right of the map, or in the East, so there are A LOT of town, and some very old, and very big ones. With more town, you risk running into more bullish a--holes that simply want to pick a fight. When I was asking about where we want to start our town, it's simply to take that into account. Your area seems quite okay Jon, and it'd be easier for me to go there, than for any of you to get to where I am, given how faster I can travel... FM

founding a town takes $300 and 80 energy points. I'll have to work a bit more before I can leave the town I'm currently in since I'd like to buy an shirt with construction bonus, and I want to give 'em some payment in their treasury before leaving town, but I'd see us getting a town before the end of the weekend...

Kinda hard to describe but lemme try. In that quadrant, on the mini-map, starting from the far left/west edge, there's a town in the absolute top/north then there's a town moving east, about 30% up from the bottom then there's two towns that are on almost the same left/right or east/west line I'm harvesting fields just a bit southwest of the southern most of those two towns, called Key Lime Cove.

you can search for a town by going through rankings, then town and entering the search string at the bottom...

No big hurry afaic, I'd say we all ought to get ourselves more leveled & outfitted before worrying too hard about it. A few days doesn't seem like a killer to me, as we probably aren't loaded with enough cash to be doing much buying in anybody's store at the moment anyway (and as long as there's a town near enough to sleep in for $10, that's the other thing we'll be doing in a town at the moment anyway, right?) Not sure how the town points stat is accumulated but here's a rundown of what's visible here in this quadrant (working west to east) Ryloth - 5 members, 784 points Gold Rush Pond - 6 members, 4432 points Stagecoach Junction - 9 members, 1737 points Kansas City - 9 members, 2670 points Key Lime Cove - 10 members, 1712 points Bobs Place - 4 members, 654 points Hotel California - 15 members, 4506 points Oaharas Nest - 4 members, 649 points New Thalos - 2 members, 679 points Middle Park - 10 members, 942 points Riverdale - 2 members, 548 points Rock Ridge - 15 members, 9935 points Final Bros - 2 members, 557 points Georgetown - 2 members, 560 points Montgomery - 5 members, 1610 points Soul Society - 4 members, 781 points Wildfire - 5 members, 583 points Elm Street - 1 member, 544 points Hispano Town - 2 members, 568 points

a town starts with 500 points and points are added as buildings are built. A level 1 general store is 100 points IIRC, 200 points for a a hotel, that sort of things...

good thinking. Yeah, the hotel would be the other big thing to build, but then again, it needs to be built, and it would only allow the 5 town members to sleep for free... FM

just did some budgetting and I have enough to buy the three affordable items left at my town that would help me work on a new town:
brown clothing, +6 leadership, +5 swimming, +4 construction for $356 gray bow tie, +13 construction , for $282 and a blue wooly hat for future use (+6 swimming, +5 setting traps for $175). Would then need to earn maybe $150 to pay them my last fee and bid farewell. After that, I'd need to raise $300 to found the town. So maybe, and it might be a bit of a stretch, we might have a town by Sunday night... FM

while it's true that it's not allowed, they do allow multiple players on a same IP address as long as you don't duel one another and don't duel the same opponent within a 24 hour period. For example, both my son and I are playing from the same IP address. We're even part of the same town, but as long as we don't duel each other, or don't duel the same person within 24 hours of one another, we are fine. Transfers of items or money are not allowed from one player to another, so there's one thing less to worry about... FM

I just noticed that dueling is a separate thing from your level. It looks like some of us will need to work up some dueling levels because the forum is full of stories about dweebs who shoot workers and such. Who is working on dueling?

What we need to do is figure out what kinds of players the town will need, and get some people to fill those positions.
At the moment I'm just thinking of being an adventurer -- kind of boring I suppose. But dueling doesn't get me excited, and neither does being a builder. What else would a town need? Just guys who can give money to the town each week, right? |

you can't be dueling if you're not part of a town, neither can you be attacked for that matter, so for now, I doubt any of us have been working on dueling much. Yes, the town (or towns) will need some people who can duel, either soldiers or duelists, because it's through that there are morons attacking workers. When attacks on workers happen, there's usually retaliation against either only the guy who attacked, or workers of his town. FM

This game seems like a lot of work. Dunno how much I will get into it. I'm still working on level 2; perhaps I'm not going about it the best way (I'm putting up posters).

didn't mean attacking you when you are working, but more people who attack characters that are workers, one of the four classes of characters you can pick once you hit level 10. Workers typically put a lot of their skill points into construction and very little into shooting or aiming and often they don't carry big guns thus are pretty much defenseless. Every town need at least a couple workers to help build the buildings in the town... FM

I've lost track so I'll ask ... when did you start? If it was a week ago & you're still working on level 2 then yeah, something ain't working right for you. If it was last night, then that's not so bad. Also, there's diminishing returns if you stay on a single job for long (the motivation stat). If you've been putting up posters for several days straight then you're almost working with no hope at this point.

So confused on what skills to go after and where to spend my attribute points. Also, I fished up that Fishing Pole, if I equip it does it enhance my fishing ability or chance to fish up rare items etc?
Heres my current stats and inventory. I have 11 skill points and 2 attrib to spend. Id like to go for whatever will help the town out. Last edited by chinaski : 04-11-2009 at 04:01 PM. |

Question, do I have to follow the quest order? If I decide there is a quest I just don't want to do, will that person give me additional quests as they come up still?

I don't think so, at least not new assignments in that same quest line. Not clear on whether you have to finish, say, the saloon girl's level 5 quest set to get her level 15 quest set (or whatever) Here's a list of each set The West Stats and Tools

Not close yet, but looking ahead, I see there is a quest reward to be able to respec abilities, is this something you have to use right away or can you save it for when you want it?

I have replaced the broken clay jug (1-7 damage melee) with the recently acquired broken whiskey bottle (3-13 damage melee). Is there any reason to keep the clay jug or is it now obsolete for me & I should sell it off?
