Life is Feudal Your Own • Review, description, evaluation Life is Feudal. Slaves and autocracy

The Middle Ages were a time of catastrophic epidemics and constant wars. Human life was worth nothing in these dark times. Life is Feudal will try to show you exactly the Middle Ages that you read about in history books.

The Middle Ages was a brutal era that began after the fall of the largest developed civilization in Europe - the Roman Empire. On the site of once majestic cities, only ruins remained. The creators of history were barbarian tribes, which over time created their own proto-states and a system of relationships, later called feudalism. The Middle Ages could not boast of any serious achievements. Fragmentation, decentralization, clericalization and primitive legal systems slowed down the development of humanity. If the aristocracy, their squads and clergy lived relatively well, then their subjects - the third estate - would not be envied by the dead. Of course, closer to the Late Middle Ages, the situation will gradually change. But there were still few pleasant things in the life of peasants and yeomen.

A little excursion into history is necessary: ​​despite the fact that Life is Feudal takes place in a fictional world, the game almost completely copies the way of life in real medieval Europe. Of course, there are some differences, but they affect the authenticity too much. Despite all the conventions, sometimes Life is Feudal really makes you feel like you're stuck in some Longobard village.

When creating a character, the player is given a choice of three races. The Gottlungs are the conventional Franks, the Slavards are the cruel Germans, and the Khurs are the peoples of Central Asia, cavalrymen and archers. The differences between them are minimal, and the game does not give any clues about this. As well as the meaning of the characteristics that will have to be distributed. All that remains is to choose at random.

Life is Feudal is a sandbox where the main goal is to simply live. Unlike many games in the survival genre, life here flows quite calmly at first. Your only concern will be finding food and company. Although surviving in the game is quite easy, you can still die. For example, from hunger. Theoretically, you could be killed by a random bear passing by. In other cases, you will have to die at the hands of other players. But even they will be punished for this.

Life is Feudal cannot be played alone. You can try, but the process will be reminiscent of the movie “Cast Away” with Tom Hanks, where he survived on a desert island, and his only friend was a volleyball.

Players are expected to team up with each other and build a small medieval society. We warn you: if you don’t have friends or are just used to playing alone, you’re unlikely to find anything interesting here. It is simply impossible to advance in Life is Feudal without interacting with other players. These restrictions are also supported by the need for specialization. The game has a huge number of skills that develop the moment you perform the corresponding action. Do you want to become an alchemist? First, collect herbs, and then brew potions. Have you chosen a career in construction? Start by cutting and processing wood. It is impossible to become a specialist in all areas, and it is simply pointless. It takes a lot of time to develop even one skill to the maximum level. In Life is Feudal you will find an interesting, but rather monotonous progression up the craft career ladder. However, not everything is so boring. There is also war in the game.

It's also difficult to play with two or three friends. For relatively convenient and rapid development, you need to unite in clans of ten people. But there can be problems with this too. Over the year that has passed since the game launched in early access, player activity has decreased somewhat.

By creating production chains and organizing the production of equipment, you can provide the clan’s warriors with some kind of weapons and go to seize other people’s lands and property. Since the game allows you to build a real castle (and many people use it), sieges last quite a long time. The small arms here are truly medieval, so when using them you need to take into account the trajectory of the projectile. In fights using edged weapons, it is, of course, easier to hit the enemy, but you need to take into account the range of your favorite club.

Separately, it is worth mentioning construction. Small medieval settlements could not boast of the beauty of architecture (which, in general, is natural), but in Life is Feudal the monotony of wooden booths, and indeed any buildings, is a separate issue. The game still contains only a couple of models of residential buildings, craft buildings and defensive structures. Dozens of identical wooden sheds look frankly shoddy.

There is also a problem with the visual side: the environment in Life is Feudal looks worse than the old one. The animation of the characters themselves and the very sparse animal life is more like a bad puppet theater where all the actors are drunk. There were also a huge number of bugs: models getting stuck “in textures”, problems with optimization and server crashes - only a small part of what awaits those who dare to buy Life is Feudal at this stage.

The first project of the independent Russian studio Bitbox. It is conceived as a large online sandbox, but so far only part of the plan has been implemented: there is still no single world, but there are many small servers that can accommodate a maximum of 64 players (that’s why the game now bears the subtitle Your Own). In the spring, they promise to unite all the “pen”, so that all players will find themselves on a single platform with common rules, but for now everyone is free to create their own world and have fun as their heart desires. Someone creates servers with the most favorable conditions - increased pumping speed, indestructible buildings and a huge amount of food. But there are also plenty of worlds marked “Caution! Hardcore!”, where the pumping speed is slow, wild animals sit under every bush, and sometimes there is not even the right to revive - and these worlds, surprisingly, are not empty.

The beginning of the game on any server looks the same: your hero comes to his senses somewhere, almost naked and without food. There are no assistants or random passers-by on errands nearby. There is also no plot, moving along which the hero could gain levels and get a little stronger, and there are no levels, there is only a set of skills that have to be developed. You will have to study and do everything in this world on your own: come up with tasks for yourself, complete them - or just try to survive.

The world of Life is Feudal is perfect for explorers who are interested in collecting everything their eyes see and experimenting with it. Tape a piece of flint to a stick with strong grass to get an ax or pickaxe. Place a few flints in a row and you have a saw. To build a clay hut, you will have to dig up clay. And in order to plant potatoes, you must first find these potatoes growing wild. All production processes are as close to reality as possible - as far as possible in the game. If you need leather armor, you cannot knock it out of a deer or buy it from a city merchant - if only because there are no merchants here, and the city must first be built.

The most obvious thing that any settler will sooner or later do is build a house. To do this, you need to select a suitable clearing and “brand” it in a special way, declaring it your property. The main thing in your house is the door: while it is missing, anyone can go inside and rummage through the chests. Building a house may well take several weeks of your real time, so if you value it, find a strong guild that will provide you with resources and additional labor, or even immediately allocate ready-made housing.

But the fruits of one’s own labors in Life is Feudal bring much more joy than blessings that fell from the sky. You dug up this piece of land with a primitive shovel, planted a hard-earned onion in it and waited for the tiny garden to bear fruit. These apple trees grew from seedlings that you dug up in the forest at night, chilling with the thought that there seemed to be someone in the bushes nearby. And how much earth had to be dug up before there was enough clay for this tiny hut! And how cool it was to once meet another such loner and decide to survive together - from then on things went incredibly faster: we’re about to dig up the ore in the mine, build a forge, forge iron picks and start cutting stones for a big one, comfortable manor. Then we'll live!

This is roughly how you will play Life is Feudal - every evening, painstakingly, little by little, very slowly, repeating the same actions many times, mastering one recipe after another, developing your farm and accumulating resources. Of course, this kind of activity will appeal only to a certain type of people, and if you are not one of them, sooner or later you will become bored to death and you will go to war and rob. The peaceful settlers will hate you - but even they, deep down in their souls, must admit that without you this world would be completely dull.

You can attack other players anywhere, but the game still does not encourage senseless killings: karma gradually decreases (here it is called worldview). Your worldview improves with prayers, but once it reaches a certain level, the deities will stop responding to your supposed repentance. After this, death for you will mean the loss of skill points and characteristics. The only way to get around this limitation is to acquire a blunt weapon that does not kill the victim, but sends him into a deep faint and allows him to pick his pockets.

You shouldn’t count on easy money: any farmer can fight back against a robber. There are no classes in Life is Feudal, the player can upgrade any skill - and if he, for example, is good with a shovel, then with the same shovel, which he usually uses to dig beds, he can very successfully hit you on the crown. There is no magic in the game, and the fights are more like tavern brawls than graceful duels. A combat system without target acquisition and only blows delivered with the tip count: just stand too close or slightly turn the camera away, and all blows will go to waste. Of course, you cannot pierce chain mail with a flint knife, and rags will not protect you from a steel sword - so usually the one who is better dressed or armed wins a duel.

For those who don’t like petting things and robbing passers-by, but respect big fights, the game has guild wars. Gathering in a crowd, you can attack someone else's city or storm a fortress. Usually guild territories are protected by a special monument, but its effect is not permanent. At the moment when the guard falls, an army armed with homemade bows and swords can break into someone else's possessions, force all the defenders to surrender, and kill or stun those who did not surrender.

Life is Feudal already looks quite good and thoughtful, although technically it is still far from perfect: freezes, crashes, server rollbacks - all this spoils the feeling of the game. As soon as several players simultaneously start digging a ditch or start leveling an area for a hut, the entire server immediately begins to slow down. The worlds are constantly restarting, erasing the results of the work of all the settlers - and they have to start all over again. Surprisingly, many, although they sigh, return, usually with the words “now that I know the game, I will do everything much better.”

However, it is not the technical difficulties that cause the greatest concern. The most difficult question to answer is what will make people play not for a day or a week - but for months and years? What will they do after they set up their own estate, village, city, fortress? Why would they go to war with their neighbors if any resources could just as easily be obtained on their own territory? For a while, you can fight just for the sake of fighting. But how long will this be enough and what will happen next?

Life is Feudal is a good little game that successfully combines elements of Minecraft and survival games. If you are not embarrassed by the fact that here you are practically powerless alone and the idea of ​​saving materials for armor for six months does not frighten you, try it. The game costs one and a half thousand rubles, but this is quite an adequate price for the opportunity to experience first-hand what it was like to live in the real Middle Ages.

How to play: You can play the game for 1,499 rubles.

It is quite difficult to survive in this world, and it is completely impossible to do it alone. Therefore, for a successful walkthroughs of Life is Feudal: Your Own you will need not only to create your own squad, but also knowledge of game secrets and nuances, some of which are presented in our knowledge base.

Guild

In this game project, it is not only possible, but also necessary to create your own guild. But they have divisions into levels depending on the different position of such an organization in a given world.

• Gang. Technically, a gang cannot be called a guild. It's just a group of fighters trying to create their own guild. Gangs have no right to take part in global political changes. Also, this group of players does not have the opportunity to bear the name of the guild, as well as tags (guild signs) that would distinguish them from other participants in the game project. The gang has no territory (claim). The minimum number of participants is 1.
• Order Some kind of guild that does not have any territory (claim). The minimum number of participants is 10, forming a permanent group. Ideal for small guilds who want to stand out in this world, and mercenaries. The Order is already gaining the opportunity to take part in a global political change in reputation in relation to other guilds. Members of the order have the right to wear a name and tags (badges).
• A country. The guild that built the monument was given the opportunity to own the land. The country has the right to take part in global politics, as well as change its reputation in relation to other countries and kingdoms. Members of a country have the right to bear the name and tags of the guild. The minimum number of participants is 10.
• Kingdom. A country that has accepted at least one request for protection. The working principle of a kingdom is the same as that of a country, but the kingdom is endowed with a unique name and political reputation with its automatic application to the subject countries. In other words, a kingdom is the leading guild in an alliance of different guilds. The minimum number of participants is 10. The minimum number of countries subordinate to the kingdom is 1.

Interaction

In this game project, interaction with a huge virtual world is carried out in fairly simple ways.

• Context menu. To open, you need to press RMB or the “Q” key on any moving or stationary object, player, cell of your inventory in “peaceful mode” or area of ​​the landscape. A context menu is provided for all the features that are available to your character, as well as for the objects with which the character interacts. Opportunities that the hero does not know or that he cannot perform when interacting with one or another type of object do not have a context menu.

Note: Do not forget to mark certain features of the default context menu by right-clicking on them. Thanks to this, you simply click LMB on objects without calling up the context menu, and this significantly speeds up the gameplay.

• Possibilities. Quick access panels. Having opened the “skill book” using the “L” key (by default), you need to drag the symbol of the required ability onto the quick access panel. At the same time, remember to enable the interface settings mode (F10). By pressing the assigned button on the hotbar, the ability you previously selected will be applied.
• Combat mode (with weapons). To switch between "combat" and "peaceful" modes, press the "R" key. In combat mode, you have access to one of four slots that are intended for weapons. Direct interaction with your victim occurs while you are swinging your weapon.

Combat system

The medieval world of Life is Feudal is realistic and harsh. There is no magic in this world, so combat confrontations are limited to real types of medieval battles.

Melee

Unique gameplay features include close combat, which aims to be as realistic as possible.

• It's worth keeping the enemy within the effective range of your weapon. If you have a spear, you can deal less or no damage if the enemy is close enough to you to use a short sword against you.
• Don't forget to monitor your character's stamina. Constantly attacking enemies can cause your stamina bar to drop. In this case, your hero has to stop and during this time he will not be able to perform any actions. He needs time to catch his breath. At this time, your character is extremely vulnerable.
• Constant movement is not always the key to victory. Attacks performed by your hero while standing firmly on both feet deal much more damage to the enemy.

In this Life is Feudal: MMO game guide, you will learn the pros and cons of creating a playable character. About the characteristics of the characteristics, and about the two world islands.

About the character

In Life is Feudal, it all starts with creating a main character. Below I will outline the main differences between male and female hero models, and also tell you how to properly create your character.

First, as you already understood, you need to decide on the gender. There are a number of important differences between men and women.

About the advantages and disadvantages of the male model:

1. The weapon in the hands of a male character is always larger, due to which the radius of strikes is significantly increased. That's a plus.
2. The model in armor looks impressive and intimidating. That's a plus.
3. The male character's horse has default dimensions, so it is easy to hit, but the rider on the horse is more comfortable using a pike or sword because of this. Ambiguous.
4. The male model is much larger, making it easier to kill by any means. This is a minus.
5. It will be impossible to squeeze into narrow secret places on the map.

For a man, it is best to choose the infantry or cavalry class.

About the advantages and disadvantages of the female model:

1. The female model is correspondingly smaller than the male model, which allows her to get into secret places that are inaccessible to men. Plus.
2. Due to its small size, it is very difficult to hit it, and especially to knock it off a horse. Plus.
3. Women's horses are very small - this is good because it is more difficult to hit, but this makes it more difficult for women to wield pikes or swords as riders. Both a plus and a minus.
4. The female character's weapon model is very small, and because of this, the range of action is very small.

I advise women to play as a shooter. And if you need a peaceful profession, then definitely a miner.

After you have chosen a unique name for your character, you need to customize your appearance. The same race, secretly, does not matter in the future, but at the beginning it sets the basic characteristics, as well as the armor with which you will be equipped. If you can’t decide, then take a look at the store, where the types of armor for each race are listed.

Now I will tell you about the character’s parameters, what they are and what they affect.

• Force- it tells you the maximum available weight of the weapon that will suit you best, but it also determines the maximum weight of all equipment. At the start, it is best to set strength to 20, which will give you starting protection at first.
• Dexterity- shows how accurate you will be when shooting long-range weapons, and also determines the rate of stamina regeneration during battle.
• Body type- shows how many lives you will have. Accordingly - 1 unit. physique gives 1 unit. health. Also affects the maximum weight of equipment, summing up with Strength.
• Intelligence- each point of this parameter gives you additional skillcap points. It is better to upgrade on characters that you plan to engage only in crafting.
• Strength of will- shows how many items you can carry in your hero’s backpack. Calculated by weight.
• In addition to all the characteristics described above, there is also normal craft skills. Based on your choice of profession, you must upgrade them.
• Combat skills- these are the opposite of crafts and aimed at military professions and classes. So it depends on your hero.

Starting Island

This is the very first location where all the new ones are located. This location is updated every week along with a wipe of everything acquired, to make it easier for beginners.

This location is, roughly speaking, an introduction to the larger world of Life is Feudal, where you can calmly learn about all the basics of the game, learning some basic points and secrets.

In the northwest you can see a village with many NPCs with quests to complete. They will tell you about the professions that exist. By the way, to view the village, you should press F4. The village is also limited by the land, which means that many actions, including murder, cannot be performed in it.

So if you want to fight with other players, then you are welcome to the PvP arena. By the way, I advise you to beware of wild animals that will calmly tear you to pieces. Bears, wolves and wild boars.

In the world of the game there are about 50 servers on which this very starting island is implemented. To travel across servers, you need to use an idol - this is a blue beam of light located above the building in the settlement. This beam will also teleport you to the main world called Avalon. But to get there, you need to get a ticket, which you need to buy from a premium store. The ticket must then be added to your inventory.

To do this, press Esc, then go to the Store. In the new window in the right corner you will find your nickname, which you should click on. This will open your Inventory, where you will find the ticket. Click Add to Inventory to move it from the warehouse. Present this ticket to the idol, or to another player if you bought it for a friend, for example, and want to go to Avalon together.

Now you need to remember that after teleporting from the starting island to Avalon, you will lose everything you have acquired. Skills and characteristics, karma points, as well as stamina and satiety parameters that you managed to earn.

However, you should not rush to escape from the initial island, because it has its own interesting secrets.

1. There is a lot of wood that you can drag with you. Carpenters will need it. After all, there will be little wood on Avalon, and to upgrade your carpenter to 90, all the trees in Avalon will not be enough. If you start logging near someone else's village, then expect a conflict. Thus, if you decide to follow the path of a carpenter, you should know about the logs next to the forge. Each of them has 5,000 durability. Saw them to improve your carpenter skill. Moreover, you can go through servers, where each has its own logs.
2. The food never ends! Not far from the settlement you will find fields where all sorts of fruits and vegetables grow. Harvest the crops, and when you re-enter the game, you can harvest them again. This is a great opportunity for hunters who need provisions for their pets. Well, accordingly, farmers will also need this secret.
3. Complete security.
4. Complete several quests that will help you gain insight into the essence of things and professions. NPCs will even give you tools that can help you achieve mastery in other crafts.
5. There are even guilds here that calmly accept newcomers into their ranks. You can then move everyone to Avalon in an excellent composition. But it’s worth applying to the guild when you’ve figured out the basics and also slightly upgraded your skills.

Avalon

The main game world, which you are transported to after using a ticket near the idol. Avalon is much larger - there are 49 server squares. In the open world you should be wary of people because PvP is present, but in the city on server 25 there is no PvP.

The north is full of snow, in the south there is an endless desert, in the west there are steppes in which little grows. I advise beginners to start developing from the center of the map, where it is easiest to get resources and develop skills.

Accordingly, these climate zones are in the game for a reason. For example, in the north there are deposits of timber, and planted trees grow faster. In the south there are more different animals, which is suitable for hunters. There are also fields there.

If you are afraid of appearing in an unfavorable place after the initial island, then you can do the following.

1. Go to the store to buy 10 points insurance and use it. However, if you lost a lot of karma on the starting island, you will have to buy expensive insurance.
2. You can commit suicide by cutting your throat. Go to the daily skills tree to select Glummelinde there.
3. Accordingly, after death you will be reborn in a new location on the map. If you have also purchased insurance, then you will appear in a good zone.
4. If there is no insurance, then just kill yourself until you are reborn in the place you need. However, you should be aware that spawn points are placed at the edges of the map.

Of course, it will be difficult for newcomers without support, because excellent places are occupied by larger clans. You should also take into account the population of many servers, which is why there are interruptions with ping, etc.

To occupy land for yourself, you should use your own or clan claim.

To do this, you need to have coins, which you need to earn by selling unnecessary things, but most often the important ones. In the city center, for example, wolf skins are of particular value, so keep that in mind.

Own claim charges 450 points per day, and one copper will give 100 maintenance points, the cost of the starting installation is 1 copper. However, your own claim can overlap with the clan’s if it is placed next to it. On your piece of land, if you are alone and in an open place, it is better not to store particularly valuable things. But the best thing to do is find a group or friends.

Clan claim makes it possible to establish and take control of a larger territory. But to do this, you need to create a guild on the official website, and only after it has 10 people already in Avalon. By the way, an important point: when you set a claim, and there are less than 10 participants in the guild, then all the buildings collapse.

To keep the claim in condition, you need to offer him food, weapons and other resources and things. Starting from the 2nd level of the claim, it becomes visible on the global map, and it will have to be supported only with coins.

This type of claim is divided into two areas - a city area with a radius of 20 cells, as well as an area of ​​the kingdom, which can expand over time. When war is declared on you, you can easily be plundered in the royal territories and burned. But the city area is under guaranteed protection until siege weapons enter the field.

The guild that placed the claim can also declare wars or enter into alliances. In short, everything is the same as in the notorious MMORPGs. The scheme has long been clear and understandable to everyone.

That's all for me! Good luck in the harsh game worlds of Life is Feudal.

Introduction

Prepared by the Great Tartaria gaming community, Avalon server.
Join us!

This guide will help you get used to the harsh world Life is Feudal.

Here you will learn about the game, the character creation process, starting location.

At the end - a description of the game worlds (servers), a guide to creating your own settlement and a collection of useful tips.

The guide is designed for complete beginners, but experienced players will also find interesting information.

If anything is unclear or you have other questions, write them in the comments.

About the game

Life is Feudal is an MMORPG with a completely open, seamless world divided into 49 servers.

The game is very unfriendly to individuals, is strictly geared towards cooperation and assumes that you will only see full-fledged gameplay as part of a guild.

What can you do here?
Here's a comprehensive one list of gaming features:

1) Construction of settlements and terraforming of the landscape.

2) Craft, i.e. production of things.

3) Trade.

4) Military actions.

5) People management and planning.

Most players are busy with some of this, because by and large LiF does not offer anything else. But, believe me, even these 5 points will be enough for you to play for several years.

Everyone will find something to do: a pacifist who wants to quietly plant carrots will be able to reveal himself in peaceful crafts, and a lover of battles will have the opportunity to disappear all day long in raids on enemy lands.
And if you have the skills of organizing people, you can implement them in the guild as an officer.

But all this is possible only with your desire and initiative. This is a sandbox game, no one will lead you by the hand on quests, you must entertain yourself.

And the most important thing is that no one owes you anything in this game. You can (and will) be killed simply because it's fun.

Very often, innocent victims are filled with hatred for the murderous villains and give birth to angry speech, denouncing and branding uncivilized, immoral scum, who ruined a peaceful traveler for no reason.
This phenomenon is called "bum syndrome" and is extremely common among beginners. From the outside it looks funny, but it heals over time.

And lastly, do not leave the starting island until you read this guide, or at least read the last section, which describes the existing game worlds, because each has its own characteristics.

Character Creation

The step from which your adventures in the world of LiF begin. You should pay attention to creating your virtual incarnation; this will later help save a lot of time and nerves.
First, decide on the gender of your character. Male and female body models have significant differences.

Pros and cons of the male model:
+ The model of the weapon in the hands of a male model is larger - the strike distance increases accordingly.
+ Men's looks more impressive, especially in armor.
+ A horse controlled by a man has a standard size - it is easier to hit it with small arms, but it is also much more convenient for the rider to use a pike or sword.

The male model is larger - it is easier to shoot, hit with a sword or trample on a horse.
- Due to its large size, some bottlenecks (such as mines) are inaccessible.

Pros and cons of the female model:
+ The female model is smaller in size and can crawl into places that are inaccessible to a man - for example, jumping from the balcony of a house or crawling into a narrow mine.
+ Since the female model is smaller, it is more difficult to hit her with a weapon or knock her down with a horse.

The female model takes it out of her pocket and mounts a horse that is much smaller than the male model, almost like a pony. Such a horse is more difficult to hit, but it will also be inconvenient for the rider herself to use a cavalry pike or sword.
- The female character's weapon model is smaller in size - the strike distance in melee has been reduced.

Alas, absolutely all the beautiful nicknames were taken by players who bought early access sets, so you will have to try. If you really don’t have much imagination, you can add a hyphen to your name or look for an alpha tester and convince him to give you a beautiful nickname.

Once you've chosen a name, customize your appearance to your liking. The character's race generally does not matter and affects the character's starting characteristics and the appearance of the armor. If you are planning to buy yourself non-standard textures for armor, then take a look at the game's premium store and choose a race in accordance with the style you like.

Next step - character characteristics:

Force- determines the maximum weight of weapons that the character can effectively use, as well as the maximum weight of equipment. Initially, I recommend setting your strength to 20 in order to use primitive weapons and at least somehow protect yourself.

Dexterity- affects the accuracy of small arms and the speed of stamina recovery in battle.

Body type- determines the number of health points (1 unit of constitution - 1 unit of health), as well as the maximum weight of equipment (combined with the bonus from Strength).

Intelligence- for each unit of this characteristic you will receive two additional skillcap points. It makes sense to take it only for fully crafted characters or siege engineers, because intelligence also determines the accuracy of throwing stones with a trebuchet.

Strength of will- determines the size of the maximum weight in the character’s inventory.

And the character creation is completed by the distribution of combat skills, more details in the Combat skills section.

Noobostrov

So, you created a character and got to Nubo Island.

This is the starting area where all newly created characters go. It is wiped (i.e. updated) every week, the characters’ skills and inventory are preserved, but all player buildings and landscape changes disappear.

In essence, it is a demonstration site where you can get acquainted with the game for free and gain basic skills for survival in the main world.

The map is an island from the YO version; in the north-west there is a village with NPCs from whom you can receive quests that introduce the player to all professions in the game. Please note that the village is under a claim (press F4 to see it), within which many actions cannot be performed. If you cannot perform some action with an object, simply leave the territory of the claim.

It is impossible to attack other players on the island; for those who like to wave their hands, there is a PvP arena. Please note that wild animals can easily kill you. Bears, wolves, wild boars - all this is found on the island and bad people can bring them to the village.

The skill cap is limited to 200 units, in the main world the figure will rise to 400.

There are a total of 49 servers with copies of Nubo Island (see the number in the upper left corner), you can move between them through interaction with the idol (a blue beam of light above one of the village buildings). He can also move the character to one of the main game worlds. To move, you need a ticket, which can be purchased at the in-game premium store.

When moving from Nubo Island to Avalon, you will lose absolutely all items in your inventory, but you will retain:
1) All earned skills and characteristics.
2) Karma points
3) Stamina and satiety parameters
Thus, you need to leave it completely rested and with a full scale of satiety.

Don’t rush to leave Nuboostrov, there are a lot of interesting opportunities on it:

1) A huge amount of wood that is required to upgrade a carpenter. There is very little wood in the main worlds and there is clearly not enough for all beginners who want to level up a carpenter to 90. If you start cutting down trees near someone’s settlement, there will be problems. Therefore, if you decide to level up a carpenter, pay attention to the logs next to the forge: each has 5 thousand strength, cutting out construction logs from them can raise your skill very quickly. Each of the 49 nuboislands has its own logs.

2) Endless food. Near the village there are fields from which you can harvest: cabbage, carrots, grapes - they can be eaten raw. After re-entering the game they can be collected again. Relevant for hunters who need vegetables to tame animals, as well as farmers for leveling up the “Advanced Farming” skill by grinding wheat in a hand mill (a carpenter is needed for construction).

3) Security - players will not be able to attack you, you can improve your skills in a calm environment.

4) Quests that will introduce you to all the professions in the game. In addition, NPCs will give you iron tools, use them to the fullest. Read the passage of quests in the corresponding section.

5) Here guilds recruit newcomers to their ranks, an excellent opportunity to find a team to play on the mainland. But you shouldn’t come there if you don’t know how to do anything. Get basic knowledge about the game, improve your skills a little - and look for someone to join. Make your choice responsibly, the Russian-speaking community is small, everyone knows everyone, and you definitely don’t need the reputation of a person who changes 5 guilds a month.

Alternatively, you can join the Great Tartaria. We are a large guild with balanced politics, high internal organization and good allies. We also have our own island, which we are actively developing.

True, we have certain selection criteria, so stupid, hysterical and inadequate people will not be able to get to us.

Gameplay Basics. Part 1

Interface

After creating a character, you appear on Nubo Island, which is the subject of the previous section of the guide.

After loading the world, you will see something like this:

Each interface element is marked with a number. You can move interface elements by pressing the F10 key. Remove any windows that bother you beyond the border of the screen; windows that are not on the screen are useless and will only distract you.

1. This little man will mark your character's wounds. Wounds, which are divided into wounds and fractures, reduce the character's characteristics. For example, an arrow flying into the head will reduce Intelligence, and a blow to the arm with a war hammer can reduce Strength.

2. The red bar is health, which in this game is divided into Consciousness Points (OC) and Health Points (HP). If your HP drops to 0, you will fall unconscious; if you run out of HP, you will die; at the place of your death, a grave will appear from which anyone can take all your things.

3. The yellow stripe is endurance, divided into Sprint and Marathon.
Sprint energy is spent when performing actions - running, jumping, digging the ground, striking with weapons. If it drops to 0, the character will stop in place with shortness of breath for a couple of seconds. The rate at which Sprint Stamina is restored depends on the character's Dexterity.
Marathon Endurance - the total amount of endurance a character has, determined by the character's Willpower. 1 point of Marathon Endurance = a full bar of Sprint Endurance.

4. The green bar is your satiety level. If it drops to 0, you will begin to lose Consciousness Points and then die.
The role of food in this game is also worth mentioning. The higher quality the food and the more components (from 1 to 5) you eat, the faster your peaceful and combat skills will increase.

5. This is a skill panel in which you can put up to 10 skills, each of which can be activated by pressing a button. There are 10 of these panels in total (small buttons at the top).

6. This is a chat. Standard channels - System, which contains information about increasing skills and damage received/dealt. Local chat allows you to communicate with players nearby. The chat channels marked #, testers and help are not working at the time of writing this guide, so I will not describe them.

7. This window shows the amount of karma. More about her below.

8. At the top, in the middle of the screen, the effects applied to the character are shown. The effects can be positive (for example, good luck from jewelry) and negative (poisoning from a snake bite).

Once you understand the main interface, press the P key and the equipment window will appear.

1. Equipment slots for armor (helmet, breastplate, pants, boots, gloves, bracers), tabard (cape with the guild crest) and jewelry that increases luck.

2. Opens a window for skins, custom textures of weapons, clothing and armor, which can be purchased in the premium store.

3. This button opens the inventory.

4. A stylized body that reflects wounds. Around it are 4 slots for weapons, shields and ammunition.

5. Characteristics discussed in the Character Creation section. The maximum number is 150, but since each of the 5 characteristics cannot have less than 10 points, then 100 are available for distribution.
Pay attention to the arrows next to the name of the characteristic - by clicking on them, you can block the characteristic from increasing or, conversely, set it to decrease.

If you entered someone else's land and were shouted at, minus 1 karma. For causing any damage to a neutral - minus 2 karma. For killing a neutral - minus 10 karma. For opening the grave of an innocent murdered person - minus 3 karmas. Total - minus 15 karma for killing.

At -50 karma and further increasing it will no longer be possible; your character will forever become a criminal and will lose a colossal amount of skill points. The only option is to buy another character and upgrade him again.

7. Food strip. Food quality 0.5 is a skill multiplier, meaning that all experience gained for skills will be multiplied by the number 0.5, i.e. decrease by 2 times. High-quality food can increase this figure to 4-5.

The unchecked boxes at the top are peaceful, combat secondary skills and the guild window.

Hotkeys

M - card (may lag a lot when opening)
V - camera rotation around the character
C - 1st/3rd person view
CapsLock - switch between running / walking
NumLock - automatic forward movement
R - switching peaceful / combat modes
I - inventory
P - equipment window
L - skills window
Tab - enable/disable mouse cursor

Keys when interacting with items in the inventory:
Alt+LMB - combine all identical items in a container
Shift+LMB - split multiple items
Ctrl+LMB - immediately move an item from one container to another

Actions in the game are performed by pressing LMB. Pressing RMB will open a context menu of possible actions with the object.

Gameplay Basics. Part 2

The most important features of the game

The karma system is one of the key components of the game, designed to regulate the behavior of players and replenish the pockets of the developers.

The higher the karma, the fewer skills you lose after death and vice versa. You can increase karma with prayers once per game day, which last 5 hours.

Karma is reduced for any hostile action towards a neutral character or for trespassing on foreign lands.

If you enter someone else's land, you may be shouted at - minus 1 karma. For causing any damage to a neutral - minus 2 karma. For killing a neutral - minus 10 karma. For opening the grave of an innocent murdered person - minus 3 karmas. Total - minus 15 karma for killing.
In all these cases, you are given the “Criminal” effect, allowing other players to attack you without losing karma.

At -50 karma and further increasing it will no longer be possible, your character will forever become a criminal and will lose a colossal amount of skill points, and anyone can kill him without losing karma. The only option is to buy another character and upgrade him again.

Thus, karma keeps players from uncontrollably killing neutral characters and encourages them to buy new characters.

Perhaps the most important component of the game. Brands are structures built by the player in the form of a giant sword, creating a protective zone around themselves, within which only the owner of the brand and his friends can interact with objects and the ground.

You can occupy territory using two types of claims: personal and guild.

To create and maintain a personal claim, coins are required, which can be earned by selling valuable things in the central city - wolf skins, for example.

A standard size personal claim (3x3 cells) consumes 450 points per game day.
1 copper coin gives 100 maintenance points, the initial installation cost is 1 coin. Keep in mind that a personal claim may be overridden by a guild one placed next to it, so do not store anything particularly valuable on it.

The guild claim allows you to occupy much larger territories, the size depends on the level of the monument. To install, you need to create your own guild through the website and have at least 10 people in it, and all of them must be in the same world.

If there are less than 10 people in the guild, the monument will collapse. You can support the claim by making regular offerings to it - food, weapons, jewelry. From the 2nd level of the monument, it will be displayed on the global map and can be supported ONLY with coins.

The Guild Claim has 3 areas
1) An urban zone with a radius of 20 cells.
2) Kingdom zone, which expands over time. During the Hour of Judgment, the guild that declared war on you will be able to plunder and destroy EVERYTHING in the kingdom zone, but the city zone is under absolute protection. Buildings in the city zone can only be damaged during a siege event. Installing a siege monument can be done by an enemy claim of the 1st level and this is a VERY expensive pleasure (sieges are not included in the game).
3) Zone of influence that appears around level 3 and 4 monuments. In this zone, you can destroy personal and guild 1st level claims and buildings located on them.

The guild that erected the monument can either declare war or itself become the target of aggression, enter into alliances with other guilds, have vassals, or become dependent itself - diplomacy here is created exclusively by the players themselves. Be polite to strangers, do not show excessive aggression and remember that war is a last resort.

A stranger who enters the claim without permission can be shouted at with the “Violator” skill, and 1 unit will be removed from him. karma and the criminal effect will appear, during which he can be killed without losing karma.

Judgment Hour

During the clock of judgment (SC), you can destroy buildings in the realm zone of enemy claims, take things from chests and carts, but the city zone remains invulnerable.
Karma will still be reduced for killing neutral players.

As a rule, sieges of enemy castles and raids on unprotected buildings are organized at this time.

Trading shops

The game contains coins: copper, silver and gold.
They are calculated at the rate:
100 copper = 1 silver
100 silver = 1 gold
Coins can be used to trade with other players, but their main purpose is to feed monuments, guild or personal.
So, 1 copper coin gives 100 maintenance points, 1 silver coin gives 10,000 maintenance points, and a gold coin gives 1,000,000 points.
Coins can be obtained by selling resources in trading shops, and they can be exchanged there.

You can find retail shops by turning on the appropriate filter on the map.
Public shops are located in the city on server 25, which is also called Nubograd.
This city was built by the game developers, intended as a trade center, and initially all the newcomers appeared there.
In the city itself there are 2 useful things: houses in which you can live and trading shops that anyone can use. This is the only place where a beginner can get coins for a personal claim.

Trading shops can also be built by players themselves on the stakes, but to use them you need to obtain permission. Of course, in most cases you will be refused.

The benches have internal storage, for players without a premium account this is 100 units of weight.
The storage can be expanded by paying money to the store.
Each trading post has its own storage, but all characters on the account have access to its contents.
To display goods in the store you need:
1) Move it from inventory to storage
2) Click the Market button.
3) In the upper left corner, select the name of the store you are in. The name of the shop can be viewed on the world map by turning on the display of trade shops.
4) Click Put up for sale. In the list below you will see the items lying in the shop.
5) Click on the item, a window will appear with two tabs: Put up for sale and Sale to the Crown.
In the 1st tab you can specify the price and put the item up for sale. To buy a product, a person must personally approach the store, interact with it (permission is required), transfer money there and buy the product. Money will appear in your account, and the buyer will be able to pick up the item from the store storage.
The 2nd tab is the opportunity to sell your item to the Crown, a non-game entity that buys resources for coins. Sale to the Crown is possible from any retail store.
The price depends on the type, quality and durability of the item.
Please note that the Crown only buys valuable items, here is the list:

Gameplay Basics. Part 3

Quality

In LIfe is Feudal, each item has a quality, from 0 to 100. Earth, water, iron, trees, animals, weapons and armor - the list can take a long time.
Quality determines the usefulness of an item.

For example, a quality 100 weapon will do much more damage than a quality 10 weapon.
High quality food will satisfy more of your hunger.
The horse's speed and agility are also determined by quality.
High quality trees have more wood.
The quality of the crop depends on the quality of the land.
The better the materials, the more durable the building will be.

In general, the higher the quality of a thing, the cooler, more expensive it is and, accordingly, more difficult to manufacture.

Quality is influenced in varying proportions by:

1) Initial conditions - if you find quality 15 land, then nothing can be done with it. Look for an area with better soil.
2) Player skill level.
3) Quality of the tool.
4) The quality of the craft building or object. For example, the quality of the barn will affect the quality of the cattle.

The level of tools, weapons and armor is limited by the material used.
1) Iron - maximum 60.
2) Steel - maximum 80.
3) Vostas steel - maximum 100.

There are houses in the game. You can live in houses, decorate them beautifully, and then cry bitterly when your home collapses from a trebuchet stone. Life is feudal, what can you do?

You build a house, move into it (subject to availability), and after death you are reborn in it. If there is no home, you are reborn at a random point in the game world. You can also instantly move to the house from any point on the map by using the “Return Home” skill (by default on the number 8 on the skill panel), while you will leave ALL the contents of your inventory at the teleport point, but the equipment will remain with you.

The houses are completely different - from the crooked hut of the homeless Vasily to monstrous mansions for dozens of people.

Premium store

There is donation in the game, but it is not capable of seriously affecting the balance.
In the store you can buy:
1) All kinds of non-standard textures for armor and weapons.

2) Insurance against loss of skills. After death you will see this window:

As you can see, if you die with 0 karma, you will lose 6 points in each skill tree.
If there were 5 units of insurance, the loss would be only 1 unit.
The lower the karma, the greater the loss of skills, so insurance is provided for as much as 30 units.

3) Boosters are accelerators for leveling up skills, increasing the growth rate of skills by 2 times for 1 hour in one of the skill branches. Another name is Hour of Power. Rollback - 22 hours. The booster time does not expire if you have left the game.

4) Tools are the most unbalanced thing in the store. You can buy iron tools from the start with maximum strength, quality 50, which will greatly help in the first days of the game.

5) Premium account is the most useful thing. Includes 30 days of comfortable play with permanent insurance of 5 units, 1 free booster in each skill tree and 1 random set of armor available for the duration of the premium.
You will also receive an expanded store storage size and an increased maximum personal claim size.

Please note - you are registering subscription to a premium account, the renewal fee will be debited automatically.

Random Events

When performing craft activities, various unusual situations may happen to you. You might find a golden amulet while digging, get a rock in the eye while digging a mine, or remember a funny story.
In short, don’t be surprised if something unusual happens.

Strength system

All objects in the game can be destroyed. How easy it is to do this depends on two indicators: durability and damage resistance.
Strength depends on the quality of materials used in construction, maximum strength is 20,000.

Damage Resistance depends on the object itself, reducing damage received. For example, for a wooden palisade it is 400, for stone walls it is 600.

Objects and buildings that are not on the claim are destroyed, losing 500 units of strength once per game day.

Landscape and trees

The landscape in the game consists of different types of soils and materials:
Soil types:
1) Fertile soil. You can plant flax, carrots, wheat in it, that’s all, only it will give the maximum yield.
2) Soil - occurs in desert regions and remains after harvesting from fertile soil. After fertilizing with manure (Farming skill) it will become fertile.
3) Forest soil. You can plant trees and pick mushrooms on it.
The above soils can be in their original state (grass growing) or dug up. You can search for materials and edible supplies only in the primeval ones.
A farmer can make dug up soil pristine by watering it.

4) Clay. A valuable resource required in many buildings and crafts. Speeds up movement.
5) Sand. There is a lot of it on the banks of reservoirs and in the desert; glass is made from it. Slows down movement.
6) Snow. There is a lot of it in the north, you can use it to make water, snowmen and snowballs. Slows down movement.
7) Swamp is a unique soil that players cannot create. Significantly slows down movement.
All of the above soils can be dug with a shovel.
Materials can only be dug up with a pickaxe:
1) Stone. In its original form it occurs in the form of rocks, found in mountains and hills, under the sand on beaches.
2) Granite. A rare resource for building castle structures. Found exclusively in the mountains.
3) Slate
4) Marble
5) Copper. Metal used in crafting.
6) Iron. The base metal from which most blacksmithing products are made.
7) Silver. Precious metal from which jewelry is made.
8) Gold. A rare precious metal, used for high-end jewelry and hammering battle totems.

There are also roads, people and horses move much faster along them.

Trees in the game are the source wood which happens hard And soft.

Solid trees:
Hazel
Birch
Elm
Oak
Maple

soft trees:
Juniper
Aspen
Apple tree
Mulberry
Pine
Spruce

Each tree has a quality that determines the amount of wood in the felled log and affects the appearance.
For example, the largest tree in the game, a 90+ quality oak tree, contains 1200 wood.

Tree seedlings can be planted in forest soil and wait until they grow; the growth time depends on the type of tree and climate - the further south, the longer.

Climate zones

The main world is divided into 49 servers, each of which is located in a specific climate zone.

In the north, winter lasts much longer, during which crops do not grow, but trees grow much faster.

In the south, tree growth is slower, but plants grow in less time. And there are also a lot of animals there.
Here is a map of climate conditions:

Regions

An important component of the game is the system of regions into which the game world is divided.
When digging for iron or sawing out a board, there is a small chance that you will get regional resource the region you are in.
Regional resources are a valuable commodity and are needed to build the best buildings in the game.
Moreover, southerners will most likely need resources from the northern region and vice versa.
Do not combine regional resources with ordinary ones, they will lose their uniqueness.

Gameplay Basics. Part 4

Guilds and standing system

Players can join guilds to play together.
Any character located in the main world can create a guild. This is done through the official website - you need to switch to the page of a specific character and click Create guild, after which you can select a name, tag, description.
A newly created guild has the status of a gang and will be considered as such until it puts a guild mark on itself. In this status, it is impossible to issue standings.
Statuses:
Band is a guild that does not have its own brand. Cannot participate in politics.
Country- an independent guild with a brand that does not have vassals.
Kingdom- an independent branded guild that has one or more vassal guilds.
Vassal- a dependent guild with a mark that has a suzerain. Such a guild automatically joins all the warriors of the overlord and cannot independently conduct politics.

Standings- This is the relationship between guilds, exposed by each side through the official website of the game. All standings except War must be placed mutually.

Types of standings:

Neutral- neutral, initially installed with all guilds. Claims are highlighted in yellow.

War- war. Standing is placed unilaterally, the announcement of the start of war is displayed in the system chat. Peace can be concluded by mutually displaying neutral standings.

Hostile- negative attitude. This way, one guild can express its opinion about another without declaring direct war.

Friendly- friendly guilds. The territory of claims and player nicknames are blue; karma is not removed for causing damage.

Ally- this is the status of a vassal. A large community, for its part, can be the first to expose Ally to another guild, and if that guild changes its standing to the same one, it will become a vassal.
The vassal automatically receives all the standings of his overlord (i.e., all wars), cannot independently exhibit standings to other guilds and, most importantly, cannot independently cease to be a vassal.

Instance battles

Since the game is not optimized enough, it is impossible to conduct full-fledged mass battles in the open world, and severe lags begin.

To solve this problem, the developers moved the battles of warring guilds to dedicated servers, the so-called. instances.

The order of the instance battle.
1) A representative of the attacking guild drives up to the border of the enemy’s claim and sets up a Totem, challenging opponents to battle.
Depending on the type of totem, the maximum number of fighters on each side can be 50 or 100, the cost of installation is 5 and 10 gold bars, respectively.

2) After installing the totem, participants can register to fight on one of the sides. Attackers can register through their guild monument or battle totem. Defenders - only through a battle totem.

Submitted applications are placed on a waiting list and must be approved by the head of the guild. Typically this happens in the last hour before the battle to eliminate inactive players.

3) There are a few minutes left before the battle, the list of participants has been formed. The battle has begun, and a window appears for all participants prompting them to transfer to a separate server.
On this server there will be only participants in the battle, the landscape will be without buildings and terraforming of players living in this area in the main world.

If you refuse to participate, you will remain in the main world, but will be recorded as not participating.
If you agree, you will be transferred to the instance battle server, the download will begin (sometimes VERY long)

4) The gods were merciful, the download was successful and you found yourself in battle. Battles take place on the map area next to the Totem. At the beginning, each team has 5 minutes to prepare; they cannot move far from the starting position, and the countdown begins from the start of the battle and continues while the participants are loading. If the loading takes too long, you may find yourself alone at the starting position, or even end up at the end of the battle.
After the preparation is completed, the battle stage itself begins.
The goal of the attackers is to capture a certain point, a monument, which will ensure their victory in the battle.
The goal of the defenders is to prevent the monument from being captured within an hour.
Victory will also be counted if all opponents die.
You can leave the battle if you cross the border of the battle zone - you will return to the main world with your battle, but you will be counted as a deserter.
After dying in battle, skills do not drop.

5) The battle is over, the monument is captured, all opponents are killed or fled. The winners have 10 minutes to pick up the things of the dead, which are automatically moved to the monument, after which they will be moved back to the main world to the place from where they left for the battle.

6) The battle has consequences in the main world - the monument area of ​​the losing side will be slightly reduced, and the level of the monument may be lowered. Thus, by scoring several Totems every day, you can lower the enemy’s claim to level 1 and score him a Siege Totem, which costs 10 ingots of Vostas steel. Sieges have not yet been introduced into the game.

Making primitive tools

How to make primitive tools:
1) Find a cell with fertile soil on which grass grows. Right-click on it and select Search for materials. After completing the search, the following will appear around you: Plant fibers, flint and sling shells.

Now right-click on the branch in your inventory and select Make Primitive Tool.
In the window that appears, select the desired tool, make sure you have enough resources.

Please note that to make a mortar and pestle, a crucible and a stick, or a primitive cauldron, what is required is not flint, but stone. You need to get it with a pickaxe, digging a tunnel in a cage with a rock.

Skill system

In Life is Feudal there is an extensive system of skills, divided into 3 branches:

The degree of mastery of a specific skill is determined by a number from 0 to 100, and the greater the skill, the longer it takes to download.

Cut down hard wood, cut logs into charcoal, and cook it in the kiln next to the forge.
Load iron ore and coal into the smelting furnace, raise the temperature to 1500, wait until it heats up and smelt 10 iron pieces. Use a forge to make nails.

To the west of the forge, on the shore near the fire, Vranen the Hunter stands; you will receive the task from him to catch fish. Make a fishing rod, go to the water, interact with it and select Fish. Wait for the fish to be caught, and then give it to the Hunter

Hunting the beast

The Hunter's next quest, you need to find an animal, kill it, skin it and fry the meat over a fire.
You will need a sling and shells for it, a skinning knife (a primitive one will do), sticks for the fire, as well as fuel for which logs are suitable.
Using the hunter skill Search for non-aggressive animals, hunt down the victim, shoot with stones from a sling, skin the carcass. Bring the meat to the hunter.

Game worlds

So, you decided to leave the island.
Go inside the huge structure with a beam of blue light and talk to the idol called the Ferryman and ask him to send you to Abella.
Abella is the name of the continent, but there are 3 servers where it exists.
Before moving into the world, a window will open with its description and rules.

Avalon Server
This is the very first, most populated server focused on battles between players. It has 4 Judgment Hours per week, a bunch of guilds and a lot of competition.
Living here is a big problem; all the places have been occupied for a long time and few people will be happy with their new neighbors.
I highly recommend playing on this server - there is the most activity here. It will not be boring.

Epleland Server
This server was opened as the second one especially for fans of role-playing. There are rules here that the idol will tell you about when you try to give him the ticket. GMs monitor compliance with the rules, so it will not be possible to oppress defenseless farmers for long.
Here is a sample list of rules:

Server Skjultland
Opened third, it is a cross between Avalon and Appleland.
There is no mandatory roleplay here and there are doomsday clocks, but PvP is much less than on Avalon. The server is designed for lovers of a balance between peaceful craft and war.

Please note that a spent ticket cannot be returned and the character will remain in the selected world forever.

Guide to creating a settlement

For those who started the game with friends or decided to create their own guild.

It is assumed that you will have a company of at least 2-3 people, each of whom will have several characters - this is necessary to cover the needs of the settlement in each profession: builder, miner, carpenter, blacksmith, farmer-forester-cook, herbalist, hunter - livestock breeder Without these professions, the full development of the settlement is impossible.

1) Carefully study the place for settlement; ideally, it should meet the following criteria: proximity to water, clay and mountains for the extraction of stone and iron, the presence of nearby timber.

If you have found a suitable place, do not rush to build buildings, ask permission to establish a settlement from one of the large guilds in this cluster. Perhaps you will be prohibited from remaining on the server so as not to increase lags, or you will be required to become a vassal and pay tribute. Behave politely and do not be insolent - a barefoot newcomer is not able to defend himself against a developed guild and you will have to accept their terms. If you refuse, they will simply burn your village and kill you. Do you really want to run away from the edge of the world again?
I'm sure you don't like this system, but there is only one right in this game, and that is the right of the strong. Without experience, weapons and craft infrastructure, you are just meat that can be kicked by anyone, so the only thing left for you is to negotiate.
If you can’t reach an agreement, look for another place or go to another main world, fortunately there are several of them.

So, you have found a good place and even received permission to settle. Before starting construction, you need to erect a monument; for this you need to create a guild through the website and have at least 10 characters in it. Not enough characters - buy. No money - join an already formed gaming community or look for new recruits.

Next, we will assume that you have found characters for the monument and you have collected the necessary resources: 40 powders (with positive effects), 100 bones, 5 hewn stones, 20 hard logs and you have installed the monument - you can begin construction. Carefully monitor the monument's maintenance points, it requires regular offerings, without them it will turn into a pile of rubble, and the protective zone will disappear.

2) Set up a food supply - let the hunter catch fish, and the cook cook it over the fire. The higher the quality of the fish, the more satiating it gives. A little trick - the maximum quality of fish and collected water is determined by the quality of the soil at the bottom of the water cage. Find high quality soil, dig it up and pour it into the water - let the hunter fish in this cage, this will significantly increase the quality.

3) Provide your settlement with storage containers - only tueski are available for beginners; they require 20 bark, which can be collected from trees.

4) Level the area and build shacks, you will appear in them after death. Build them in a certain order so that a certain protective perimeter is formed, plug the openings between them with tueskas, logs, snow globes - this will make life a little more difficult for the raiders. There are 2 types of shacks - wooden and clay, choose based on the available resources. Don't forget to sign in and put a sleeping bag inside.

5) Have the farmer plow the land and plant the collected wild plants. A builder must build a smelting furnace and a kiln, a blacksmith must smelt an anvil to build a forge and then provide the settlement with nails and iron strips for furniture, a carpenter must provide wood and create furniture, a forester must collect seedlings and plant new trees, a hunter must supply the village meat and skins.

6) As soon as possible, install training dummies and make training weapons - sooner or later you will be attacked and by this time you should have a defensive perimeter that prevents the enemy from getting inside the village, and weapons for defense. Turn on your imagination, improvise! Walls made of tuesks and logs, trapping pits for inattentive robbers, or even a full-fledged snow fortress if you settled in the north.
Do not try to fight with primitive tools against military weapons - you have no chance, it is better to barricade yourself inside houses, run away in different directions or try to hide in the forest.

8) Behave like decent people: don’t steal, don’t cut down trees near other people’s lands, don’t attack other players for no reason, and perhaps no one will want to destroy you.

A collection of useful tips. Household

Household:

1) Don’t leave Nubo Island, get at least basic knowledge about the game there, and upgrade your skills to the maximum.
So, Preparation of materials is very easy to make snowballs, snow can be found on the top of the mountain.
Carpentry skills can be upgraded by cutting construction logs from trunks lying at the forge in the village, each with 5 thousand strength, one log requires 100 strength.
Advanced farming can be leveled up by collecting wheat from the village field and grinding it on a hand millstone (requires Carpenter 30 to create).
A hunter in the same field will be able to collect vegetables for taming. Keep in mind that each animal requires a certain type of food: sheep - peas and cabbage, wild boar - wheat and roots, bull/cow - mushrooms and potatoes, horse - apples and carrots.
It would be logical to pump up a character with a high knowledge of nature (to make simple food of high quality, it will give a skill level coefficient of 1.6-1.8) and hunting skill (to catch good fish). Give the cooked food to the other characters on Nubo Island and they will level up much faster.

2) Monitor the level of karma, do not commit criminal acts: do not attack first, do not enter other people’s lands, do not inspect other people’s graves.

3) Don't ignore messages from other players - there may be something important there, so if someone persistently runs around you, check the local chat.

4) Do not cut down trees near other people's settlements - wood is an extremely valuable resource, they can kill you for it, regardless of the loss of karma.

5) Aggressive animals do not enter the water. You can even throw stones at a bear by hiding from it in shallow water.

6) If you are attacked by bandits, you can surrender - most likely they will not kill you, they will just take away everything valuable.

7) In the graphics settings, be sure to turn off grass and shadows. The grass makes it difficult for the alchemist to gather ingredients and detect traps. Disabling shadows will greatly improve game performance.

8) Unnecessary soil can be burned in stoves. Just like unnecessary things. This is especially true when you need to carry out a large amount of terraforming - for example, digging a ditch around a settlement.

The division of labor will significantly speed up the digging process. Let one person dig the earth and put it in a cart standing nearby, and the second person take it to the side and dump it. Many people cannot think of this seemingly obvious solution.

9) Each animal is tamed with a certain type of food: sheep - peas and cabbage, wild boar - wheat and roots, bull/cow - mushrooms and potatoes, horse - apples and carrots.

10) While fishing, you can catch a linen rope instead of a fish. The chance is small, but it is there.

11) When examining a tree you can find interesting things, do not be surprised if you find a strange item in your inventory.

12) Digging with a shovel in the ground or stone, you can find a golden amulet or relic - a loot box, which costs 5,000 premium currency to open.

There is also a chance of being injured by a stone flying into the eye or being bitten by a snake.

13) Mines collapse, even fortified ones.

14) Do not try to fight animals in close combat, use only long-range weapons.
A noob with a sling has no chance against a moose - he will catch up and gore you, but if you go into the water, the animal will run away from the water's edge, but will attack again if you go out onto land.

15) Start praying and increasing karma from the first hours of the game.

16) After establishing a monument, build yourself a house with a closing door as soon as possible. In it you can hide from the attacks of robbers. A shack with a window closed with a awning and the entrance with a gate is also suitable.

17) Use furniture and carts as barricades until you build walls around the settlement.

18) You can improve your weapon skills on a dummy or a faithful, patient comrade. For hitting a person they give significantly more experience. On a mannequin you can raise the skill to a maximum of 60 units.

19) Be careful with stone gates - the closing lattice kills.

20) The deeper the iron is, the higher its quality.

21) If you pour a stone of 100 quality into a coastal cell with water, then the resources collected from it (water and fish) will be of the same quality. Also, a well built on a leveled cell with 100th soil will produce 100th water.

22) Be creative in using small portable objects such as stone steps, pedestals, and wooden decks. With their help, you can close the loopholes on the walls, build a bridge, or build a fortified point above the house, which you will go to after death.

23) If you need to quickly drop a portable item like a log or cabinet, simply turn on combat mode. You should be careful with large objects; you may end up under them and get stuck. Write to chat /stuck if you find yourself in this situation.

24) Do you need to upgrade some characteristic? See which profession has the desired primary characteristic and perform actions that increase this skill.

25) Are you afraid that your castle will be plundered at the Hour of Judgment? Take all the valuables to the city zone, and place the buildings in the kingdom zone (realm claim) into personal claims - the enemies will have to spend time demolishing each one.

26) Don't like the night in the game? Set the brightness in the game to maximum. Is it still dark? Control panel - Screen - Screen calibration.

27) Each type of soil has a different flowability rate. The best option is land that can hold 2 cells in height.

There is a trick with soil: if you directly pour 15 soil onto a cell from your inventory, the level will rise in the same way as if you poured 30. Accordingly, with clay you can pour 30 instead of 60, and snow and sand 8 instead of 15.

28) When smelting iron, a blacksmith should smelt the ore not into bars, but into ingots. Having collected a lot of ingots, they need to be heated and bars smelted directly from them. One ingot produces 5 bars at a time. This method significantly saves time and strength of the furnace when melting large volumes of iron and makes sense if you have a blast furnace.

29) If you fall from a height, you can die. You will also receive damage if you are pushed by a horse, and if you crash into an object while flying, you will also receive damage from colliding with the object.

30) It’s no secret that in the game the interface can be customized to suit you by pressing F10. But the problem is that for some people these settings go to default, and they have to configure them again or put up with a bunch of annoying windows.
Here's the solution:
1) Switch to the First preset, configure as required, distribute skills among hotbar icons.
2) Immediately after this, before the settings are lost, go to the game\eu\data\presets\HUD\First folder. Here are files with the interface settings you need. Copy them.
3) Go to the folder D:\LifeIsFeudalMMONewEdition\game\eu\data\defpresets. Here are files with default interface settings that the game accesses due to a bug. Select the permission you need and replace all the files in the folder with the ones you copied earlier. If you don't know what resolution, replace the files in all folders.
4) When restoring the client, all this, of course, needs to be done again

31) The builder should hammer resources into the building with a mallet, and not with a primitive or blacksmith hammer, the strength will increase by 2 times.

32) Don't leave the horse unpacked for more than two hours - it will disappear.

A collection of useful tips. Military

1) The defense capability of a settlement is determined by terraforming. It's boring and time-consuming, but the ten-meter earthen walls and deep ditch provide plenty of fun for attackers.

2) Choose combat tactics appropriately for your class: an infantryman has no chance against a knight in an open field, but if he hides among the trees, the rider will have to dismount. The cavalryman, accordingly, does not need to climb into a dense forest or dug up field. His main weapon is a horse, which gives him mobility and the ability to get out of battle, but is almost useless in the forest and urban areas.

3) The damage caused by arrows largely depends on their quality.

4) There are different types of arrows: regular, broad-headed, armor-piercing, blunt, fire and salute.

Broad-headed arrows deal increased slashing damage and are used by most players due to the best balance.

Armor-piercing arrows deal piercing damage and are excellent at penetrating heavy armor, especially plate.

Blunt arrows deal crushing damage to Consciousness Points and stun the enemy.

Fire arrows cause siege damage and can destroy buildings and furniture.

The game also features wooden arrows and bolts used for training.

5) A crossbow is a suitable, inexpensive weapon that does not require points. Doesn't require Force to use, shoots far and accurately. The main disadvantage is the very long reload time. Armor-piercing bolts deal particularly high damage to shields.

6) Water is a great opportunity to escape from persecution. It is difficult to hit a swimmer with small arms, especially if he has dived.

7) A pot of naphtha, also known as a naphtha grenade, is a good weapon that deals a lot of siege damage. Requires a direct hit on the enemy. Has a good chance of immediately killing a player without armor. This is especially true against horsemen - it can kill a horse with one hit.

8) The opinion that a naked peasant is harmless is fundamentally wrong. It all depends on the player’s personal skills.

9) A good starting weapon for a beginner is a stone ax and sling, but watch out for durability.

10) Set the equipment of armor pieces to hotkeys - you can take off/put on armor in 5 seconds.

11) An untrained horse (the very first one) rears up when receiving any damage. ANY damage, even from a punch. Don't use it for combat. Never use it at all, trust me.

12) The shield, even hanging on the back, is capable of stopping arrows and weapon strikes.

13) If you rob other players, then use weapons that cause crushing damage. It stuns the victim without killing him. This way you can pick up things without ruining your karma.

14) Use traps. When caught in a trap, the player or horse is unable to move for some time and receives heavy damage. Try to place traps in unexpected places - under tree stumps, in depressions in the relief, under the carcasses of fallen horses, etc. In addition, you can build a real minefield from traps: place several dozen traps under the walls of your fortress and cover them with a little earth.

15) The trebuchet shoots far and hurts very much. Defenders can break it out of action with fire arrows, a sally, or another trebuchet.

16) Do not hesitate to run away from the battle if you feel that you are losing. If you have little health, run for your life, there is no point in a heroic death.

17) Rearrange the skill button “Run!” from 5 to 0. Your hands will shake in battle and you may accidentally press it when you draw a weapon with number 4.

18) If you have joined a squad, then have its leader use the Formation skill from the 2nd skill tab. An illuminated figure will form around it and it will be easier for all members of the squad to navigate. In addition, formations provide strong bonuses to damage protection and attack.

19) The game provides the opportunity to surrender. The character kneels and raises his hands, begging for mercy. If you hit a surrenderer with your fist, he will instantly be stunned and all his things can be taken away.

20) By upgrading your combat skills, you get more experience for hitting a person than for hitting a dummy. On a mannequin you can raise the skill to a maximum of 60 units.

21) When building a castle, stone towers can be successfully replaced with walls. It’s cheaper in terms of resources, and instead of one object you get four, which means it will take longer to break them.

22) A barrel of explosives that has been set on fire can be extinguished. You have approximately 10 seconds. Moreover, if the enemy was so stupid that he placed a barrel near the gate, then nothing prevents you from taking it and bringing it inside while the enemy sapper sets fire to the charge. True, one barrel is not enough to break down the walls.
