Revision as of 13:19, 12 August 2014
A Furniture is an item that can be placed in a Guild Hall. These are purely aesthetic items, with only a few exceptions (such as the Energy Well). Furniture items were introduced with this update, along with a major Guild Hall redesign. Furniture items show up in the "Furnishing" tab of your arsenal. This tab does not show up if you do not have any furniture. Furniture can be obtained and arranged in a variety of ways, see individual pages for availability and other details.
Contents
List of Available Furniture Items
- Linking: images are links too - click on them to navigate.
- If a furniture item has its own recipe or special interaction, then the image link will lead to a specific page for that item, while the text link will take you to a page with a list of items (a "group") that the item belongs to. Example: click the "energy well image" and the "energy well text" - you'll go to different but informative places. "Trophy (Boss)" and "Special" classified items will usually have this linking behavior.
- If a furniture item does not have any properties like the above, both the image and text links will direct you to the same place - a page containing a detailed list with that item as well as like-colored items or items in the same group.
- Sorting:
- This list is organized roughly by Group + Date of Release (DoR) - Alphabetical (alphabetically if items were released at the same time, DoR overrides).
- Use the little box in the top part of the columns to sort the table alphabetically.
- If the table has been sorted, click the "page" button in the top left, or refresh the page to reset the table to the rough DoR order.
- Other:
- Small tip: mousing over images without clicking them will reveal the full name (vs. the general name of the item in the "icon/form" column) of that item for certain browsers.
There are different colors and/or shape variations available for many of these items! Go to individual pages for more information and visuals.

Using Furniture
Obtaining Furniture
The topic of this article or section is subject to personal opinion, and does not represent any one absolute truth. | |
If you disagree, discuss your concerns on the the talk page before editing. |
General Furniture
Most Furniture items are obtained randomly from various Prize Boxes. The box the items come from might change over time, as seen with the Winterfest items. (Innitially, these came from a Winterfest Prize Box, then they were available in the Decoration Kit Prize Box). Many furniture items are available from the Guild Hall's Birdsong Emporium - sometimes furniture is added to this catalog without public announcement (Copper Yellow items were as such). Other than these two sources, players might be told to pay attention to a Supply Depot Sale via a forum announcement like this one - several of the Moorcroft furniture items have been temporarily available in the Supply Depot. Certain furniture items can even be crafted by players!
It seems that furniture comes from many places. It would be prudent to "wait and see" - perhaps money could be saved! But then again, you might "miss out." The important thing to remember about furniture is that these items are designed to be for a group of people, not an individual - since the only place they can currently be used is in a Guild Hall! And Guilds are groups of people. Well...not all the time. Certainly, an individual can go about as the sole member of their own guild decorating their space, but in general - work together! Plan ahead! Be frugal!
Decorating your Guild Hall can be very expensive - or rather cheap if players work together and plan ahead economically to obtain desired items. This is especially important for the "Boss Trophy" Type of furniture!
Boss Trophies
A "Boss Trophy" is unlike other Furniture items - these are crafted at a special machine in the Hunter's Lodge, called the "Armero Alchemy Machine" by the community in general. These trophy items come at great cost, but decent planning and teamwork can make obtaining these items a great goal, instead of a tedious toil.
Notes
Terminology
- "Pile" classified furniture items are named "clutter" in the game files. This term is arbitrarily and unofficially used for understanding of item groups.
- "Doodad" is a general term used in many games to describe a miscellaneous, non-interactive, perhaps animated, scenic entity. This term is arbitrarily and unofficially used for understanding of item types.
- Most "Creature" type furniture can be walked through (intangible) - but a knight will cause a wandering entity to change its travel path.
- Rotation Information:
- Most "Light" classified furniture items cannot be rotated.
- Most "Pile" classified furniture items can be rotated in all directions (North, Northwest, West, Southwest, South, Southeast, East, Northeast).
- Most "Seat" classified furniture items can be rotated in all directions.
- Most "Shelf" classified furniture items can be rotated: South, West, and East.
- Most "Table" classified furniture items can be rotated: North, South, West, and East.
- The Winterfest Table and Antique Table furniture items can be rotated in any direction.
And so on.
Other classification types and individual items within types are highly variable.
