Township Tale

Nice. I'll have a play. I want to definitely add an ore pouch, the setups I've seen people use have a spotlight, which lights up in front of you, on the lantern holder, whilst also having a lantern hooked onto their pickaxe (I think you can do it on wooden handles only).

90% sure I found the recipe for the ore backpack thinking about it... maybe I'll make one of those and attach some little pouches to it for food etc.
 
Jumped in to try and save time for later.

We need 6 more crystal to finish the televator at the top, anyone got some?

Made an ore backpack, and attached a lantern holder and a small pouch to it (place to put food and a teleport potion). Leaving the 3rd slot empty for now. Might add a weapon holder, then use a 2 handed weapon and attach a lantern to that (and spotlight to the lantern holder), gives both light sources, whilst giving me another option to attack enemies with that'll be better than the pick axe.

Added a small pouch to my regular backpack, so when we go on chest runs, I can store more different items.

Got 3 more uncooked meat, need to cook it though.
 
Quite sure i picked up a few !

Great, if we can set up the televator at the top, we can use it to get out once we're at floor 10, though we'll want some crystals saved to teleport back down again (15 each I think).

Next time we play together, you can take my backpack Shi, since it has a bit of extra storage now, and focus on picking up useful bits and bobs from the crates etc. I'll focus on rocks and ore.
 
I've only eaten cooked meat for ages and not had any issues, you can get away with it. The problem is you need to make sure your fullness drops enough to eat the next one, and get your timing right, to fill up.

Basically, any sheets of paper with drawings on are instructions we don't have. Blacksmith moulds (the big black plaques with pics of metal objects) maybe just leave, I think we have most if not all. Balls of rope, leather rolls, teleport potions, gold coins, dynamite, cauldrons, buckets (break them with a sword, and grab the iron), are all useful things to have.

Feel free to just play though. Go into a crafting area, use some materials and make things. Test it out. Don't worry about using wood, we've got plenty of leather at the moment too. So just have a go at making things. Have a wonder around the map too, I think it's only the rock men that can insta-kill you, but even then it's when they're digging at the ground and you have time to run away if you see them doing that (you can just run anyway).

Feel free to smelt some copper and make things from that, but preferably don't use anything else. We've got loads of copper and it's easy to get, at the moment, everything else is rarer :D.

After you make a mould, you often need to hit it on the forge, then hit it on the anvil with a hammer, give it a go :D.

EDIT - If you die, your backpack should just stay where it is, so worst comes to the worst, tell us where you dropped it, and we'll go together to get it back.
 
been playing on my own server

trying to change the position of my axe in one hand and had a torch in the other, dropped the axe, lent over to pick it up, and i started glowing red, and died shortly after
pretty sure i burnt myself top death ! lol

Sounds like it! :D

Again, feel free to work on Mels town, all progress is progress! Most things can be undone, and since there's more unlocked on Mel's, you can get more done anyway.
 
Anyone on tonight? Gonna jump on for abit when i get a chance later this evening to actually start the game after doing the tutorial a few nights ago. Anything to pick up on in the server or anything that needs doing that i can crack on with?

More recipes, cauldrons and buckets are always welcome from chest runs. Rope too. We've got quite a lot of wood at the moment, our next priority is really mining down to level 10.

Wouldn't hurt to have a shovel though, if you fancy smelting some copper etc and creating one. Though I've never seen anything much useful come from dig spots.
 
Found a way to get to the warrior shrine, had 2 warrior skill points so thought I'd put them in, useful for down in the mines. Did use a teleport potion to get back though, fairly sure we have enough for a mining trip regardless.

Shi, if you've got some crystals, next time you're on, if you can go to the televator and finish it. Basically as you go up the hill to the mines where it's signed, instead of going into the pit like bit where the mine entrance is, keep going up the hill to the right. As you go up, stay on the left hand side, and you should come to 4 chests, and something that needs building. Fairly sure it's just crystals needed to finish it now. Also, just check the chests, I think they're permanent storage for us, very handy to not need to dump stuff all around town, when we can just leave it there before we go mining.
 
didnt see any Crystals last night mate, so no i dont think i have sorry

That's a shame. Ah well, as long as we all have teleport pots, it's really not an issue, and we'd have taken them along anyway. Need to remember on our way down to collect some stone (not sandstone) and crystals then.

EDIT - I might be able to get on again soon if you're about. Got to prepare the steaks for tonight, and in about an hour, go and start walking to get my son from school. Little time inbetween though :).
 
I'm going to start making red iron pick axes. We can also attach lanterns to the wooden handles I'll use. Much more powerful for mining and fighting and also saves a slot on the lantern.

I'll leave attaching the lanterns to you guys since i guess they'll already have some fuel.
 
I found the archery shrine. It's just behind the town hall, past the blueberry bushes and across a stream.

Also, did some preparation for the trip to level 10. Cooked a load of food, got something like 60 pieces cooked. As well as that I mined some coal, so there is over a 100 in the bin now. Going to mine some more later if I get a chance to get on.

Where did you mine it from?

There's a red iron pickaxe in the shelves at the forge, grab it and use it, makes mining a lot faster!
 
Will have to build a vice in the blacksmith.

EDIT: oh, we actually have one built!! Didn't realise it was one, it looks nothing like a vice!!

Yeah, Shi built an extra chisel too, so we have one in each of the carpentry, blacksmith and crafting house now. Lanterns turn into a load of buckles by the way. Pretty useless really, but iron buckles might look different on backpacks etc. Don't seem to be able to smelt them down unfortunately.
 
I certainly did!

I've now made a fair few red iron pickaxes. Please feel free to pick yours up from the mining building on the small shelf straight through the doorway on your right. Makes me feel a lot more confident going mining too, I can destroy the little rock men really quick, the bigger ones can get a hit, but I can usually kill them before they do anything too silly. With extra people hitting, we'll be a lot safer.
 
Doesn't look like I'll be making it tonight. Dinner is likely going to end up late, then I'm playing walkabout golf with my dad. Need to do some work after that! I might pop on if I have time and see there's still anyone online.
