According to Wurm Clock, yesterday was the first full day of Wurm Spring. Yet with a threat of severe weather (which thankfully never really happened…but wow did the South get rekt with multiple tornado warnings), and getting myself back into modded Minecraft (I’ve gotten over my self-imposed fear of losing my work), are the reasons why I didn’t start.<\/p>\n
So I’m back on. Though I should had come on earlier in the month and asked to get my horseshoes and saddle enchanted to at least 70 WoA. With that QL and that speed, any horse I tame, equip, and then untame by taming another horse, will be very fast. No more of this constant “4-speed acting like a 5-speed” business.
\nAlso while I’m over at Exodus, I was recommended to Groom any passive mob I see to get my Animal Husbandry skill up (in order to start seeing traits of horses).<\/p>\n
Now I did end up getting a new set of 70QL Horseshoes at 70WoA by an “Elska”. They told me it’s actually (somewhat) cheaper to have them made, instead of getting my existing items enchanted (as I could get a discount). Though when they tried to enchant a new saddle, it shattered. I was referred to a person I remember meeting during my ‘Indy Romp’; “Smilingcat”, to send my saddle.
\nPersonally, it didn’t feel like a ‘discount’ at all. I was told that pricing is 50-70c per item, so I ended up paying 2s. Thankfully I was ready for it, with B2 giving me all of his money in the bank.
\nAnd now I’m probably going to have to pay more to get my saddle enchanted (IF it too doesn’t shatter.. if it does, I’m fucked as it’s my only one, and it’ll set me back more).<\/p>\n
I hope Smilingcat is able to give it to me for free (aka the “discount”). A ‘discount’ should be 50c off, or ‘buy three get one free'(like those tire commercials.. with the ‘tire’ being a horseshoe).
\nI was able to send her(Smilingcat) a PM on the Wurm Forum (since I rather go back to modded Minecraft instead of waiting all day for her to log in). I even asked her to message me in it to arrange this.<\/p>\n
.
\nLastly, I got a new addition to the deed– an ‘active wild bee hive’ growing on a Maple Tree near the main ramp. I didn’t know these things spawned in.
\nFeels like another sign. At least this one can’t kill me in three hits (with a full set of Studded) and breaths fire. But since I haven’t even messed with bees (memories of how boring they are in modded Minecraft), I think I’m just going to leave it alone.
\nThe damn thing even stung me when I tried to Open it. Got a nice sting of poison to my head.
\nLearned they act just like typical wounds, and will heal on their own if they’re Light or lower in damage. That’s good, as I hear the only way to heal anything worse is using Farmer’s Salve (and I dunno how to make it).<\/p>\n
So… hopefully I can set sail for Exodus. How soon, again, depends on what happens to my saddle. Will it be a 50\/50 chance like Elska had? Hope not. I don’t wanna have to go to FM, just to buy a replacement saddle. Though I imagine if worst comes to worst, I would be compensated with a new saddle from them. I feel I’m going to be treated like a typical client by her. No discounts. No compensation if the saddle shatters.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" According to Wurm Clock, yesterday was the first full day of Wurm Spring.

\nHowever..the more I think about it, I feel she would see it as “it’s not my fault if it shatters, it’s your fault for trusting the RNG. So why should I compensate you, when you knew the risks?”…. and that sadly would be true. It sucks monkey balls, but it’s also.. business. There is no insurance in this game– therefore she’s not<\/strong> liable if something goes wrong.<\/p>\n
