Just had one of those moments where the life flashes in front of your eyes.

My character was walking around Driik looking for needed goods. Escorted a maiden to Sartola and found a treasure of piles of superior furs from her tip. Bought masterwork hunting bow, fine woods axe and pot.

Anyway, saw a cave pretty close to some villages and decided to check if it’s viable as base, hideout, stockpile. Walking closer to the cave entrance inside the cave was Njerpez raging with bastard sword in hand. Uhh. Just how many times did my characters die in dark caves on versions bygone... many, so effin’ many.
Took a step back, Njerpez turned away from view(still him inside, Taneli outside), had a chance to hide. Drop excess weight, wait, wait, wait. Ah, there he’s back in the cave opening. Let loose, hit cave wall. He turned to charge. Still hidden let loose another arrow, hit his hip. Longer story short, 4 more arrows in him and slit his throat with skramasaksi.

Got ragged clothes, bastard sword, broad knife. And decent cave too.

How many of you have had characters die in caves? Beasts or Njerpez’ ?

Ahh... I remember my poor guy getting a huge paw on his face in front of a cave.

And it was just after I read a forum post about how animals in caves are pretty rare something like that at least some of guys said so. I was rushing into the caves like they are my home. ;D

I remember having my game volume levels high up and I literally jumped out of my chair when a bear attacked right in front of the cave entrance.

He got the jump on me and killed my character immediately, it was the scariest event that happened to me in this game.

Somewhere along the versions, caves have become less busy. It was more common to find beasts in them, than not. Now in 3.63, it’s tiny fraction of caves that seem to have activity. Hence the surprise of bumping into Njerpez, and this post

Times when Njerps would always charge, rather than swearing at you until you either leave or aggroed them...

Hi guys. I am new to this forum. I played Ureal World a couple of years ago and loved the game's adventurous storyline and unrivaled graphics. Now I want to start playing this game again.
