Dragonwilds:Rest

File:Rest gauge.png

The rest gauge as seen in-game (bottom-left corner of screen)

Rest is a Dragonwilds:player attribute affected by sleep. Players who lack rest begin to lose maximum Dragonwilds:stamina, Dragonwilds:hydration, Dragonwilds:sustenance (and increased dwindle rate), and carrying capacity. Players can rest using a bed or summoned shelter.

Resting cannot be performed during combat or a raid.

Mechanics

• Using a bed or summoned shelter at night will skip to morning and completely refill the rest meter.
  • A full night's rest removes all status over time effects, such as Dragonwilds:Bleed, Dragonwilds:Poison, Dragonwilds:Shocked, Dragonwilds:Burning, and Dragonwilds:Soulscourge.
• Using a bed or summoned shelter during the day will result in napping, which recharges 1 point per second (taking at most 100s to fully recover from 0-100 rest). This can be cancelled at any time.
  • While napping, if nighttime occurs, a full sleep to day will occur automatically.
• Rest points slowly dwindle over time:
  • 100–26: Reduced by 1 point per 72 seconds, taking 5,400s total (1hr 30m).
  • 25–0: Reduced by 1 point per 144 seconds, taking 3,600s total (1h 0m).
• Upon death, rest will be reduced by 15 points, but will not be set lower than 25/100.
• A full daylight cycle lasts 24 minutes; night is roughly 5 minutes of that.

Hydration and sustenance

• After a full night's rest, the player will receive a Dragonwilds:Fresh Start perk (buff) which lasts for 180s (3m), and stops the dwindling of all player attributes (hydration, sustenance, and rest), which can be seen in the bottom left, as a rising sun next to a bar gauge.
• After a full night's rest, hydration and sustenance are reduced in anticipation for breakfast, if players are not near their claimed bed and have slept in their summoned shelter.
  • Hydration:
    • 65-100: Hydration randomly reduced by up to 40
    • 25-65: Hydration reduced randomly by up to 40, to a minimum of 25
    • 0-25: Hydration maintained at current value.
      • This means to best optimize resources for drinking, a player should rest as close to or below 25/100 hydration as possible.
  • Sustenance:
    • 55-100: Sustenance reduced by up to 30, randomly
    • 25-55: Sustenance reduced randomly by up to 30, to the minimum of 25
    • 0-25: Sustenance maintained at current value.
      • This means to best optimize resources for eating, a player should rest as close to or below 25/100 sustenance as possible.
• With the Dragonwilds:Cosiness perk where players are near their claimed bed, the hydration and sustenance meters are reduced as follows:
  • Hydration: Reduced by 2-3, regardless of hydration levels
  • Sustenance: Reduced by 2-3, regardless of sustenance levels

Thresholds

Rest level	Effects
100/100	Template:NA
75/100	Template:NA
50/100 Tired	Reduced maximum Dragonwilds:stamina to 80/100
25/100 Knackered	Reduced maximum Dragonwilds:stamina to 60/100 Reduced maximum carrying capacity to 300 (350 with Dragonwilds:leggings of lightness) Reduced maximum Dragonwilds:sustenance and Dragonwilds:hydration to 75/100 Dragonwilds:Sustenance and Dragonwilds:hydration dwindling will increase by a rate of 1s per point
0/100 Exhausted	Reduced maximum Dragonwilds:stamina to 40/100

• Whilst the Journal Entry states that when exhausted, the player will, "...[find] spells more expensive to cast", there is no clear mechanism in which this is the case in the game. Magic staves still cost the same stamina, expend 1 rune per cast, and all spells from the player skill spellbook cost the same number of runes.

Player Announcements

Upon reaching certain thresholds of rest, a player announcement on screen will display:

50/100: You cannot stifle a yawn as your tiredness hits you

25/100: You're tired and your eyelids feel really heavy. You could use a nap.

5/100: You're absolutely knackered and your legs barely want to move. Time for a rest.

0/100: You’re exhausted. You can’t go on like this, get some rest.
