What is your favorite place to build that you have found so far?

Also of note is the first tavern you showed off, it has a starting comfort level of 25.

The most fun I’ve had with this game was crafting a castle on a hill with a longhouse on the side with a dope basement that leads out to a cliff opening

I restored Harvest Homestead to its former glory, easily the coziest spot on the map rn. I have it up to 55 comfort I believe, and converted all the wood floors to palm wood. Currently working on a desert cave base seated on top of a mountain in Kindlewastes.

I haven't played that much bc I don't have a lot of free time. I never realized we can take over a building, this is a game changer for me. I still want to get into building but early on I prefer to get stronger and explore rather than grind materials and make a lame building. Thanks for sharing this!

I took over and rebuilt the big church at Woodguard/Harvest Homestead. Giant church, lots of farmland and a big ass house. Its a great spot

[athisio]

I started doing this once I realized some of the buildings already had max level comfort.

I can tell they wanted this to be an option to do, I’ve noticed that pieces will form to the broken parts to make it look “better” on mine. Makes me feel like I’m actually fixing it

I started working on a massive mage tower. Several floating structures, leveled out a mountain and then reformed it to create a floating island for the tower to sit on. Made a lot of good use out of copper and glowstone for that runic vibe as well as the city block stone and shroudwood for the main materials.

I took over and fixed the Harvest Homestead, best base for farming and it's cozy as hell once repaired.

[heartless_gamer]

Showing where you put the alter in each of these areas would be helpful to see as well. Thanks for the tips!

[joshbonney]

what would be cool, is take over a settlement, and fix it up. Once a building is fixed up, an NPC moves in. Once it has walls, defenses, etc, you can remove the flame, and let the settlement support itself. Then, some time later, World Events happen where different settlements are attacked, NPCs killed, buildings destroyed, and you have to go liberate it and get it up and running again.

The Blue Goblet had me taking screenshots and using it as inspiration to build a massive inn. My inn is much bigger (which takes ages to build) but I absolutely love it now that it's coming together.

Sunsimmer Southterrain is one my favorite POI's. It has that Tatooine vibe with it's underground gardens in the desert, reminds me of Luke's uncle's moisture farm.

I found Peaceful Acres to be a good homestead spot. There are a lot of different resources nearby, like string from spiders. shroud wood and water, salt, flintstone and soem red trees that have a higher chance to drop resin nearby. It's got lots of land to plant crops and a small shed I use for my mushrooms. the home it spacious but did need a little remodelling. for some reason the 1st floor had like two halways really. I took out a wall and now there's 2 rooms downstairs with ample room for all my crafters. There is also a small bit of shroud nearby with a decent chest nearby to farm and as well as a flame shrine. All in all a good homestead that will hold until you get to the desert region.

So instead of people being creative and being imaginative you are just saying to be lazy and take over a building. There is more reward to the mind if you build something and are happy with it even if it looks like a dirt shack.

[RDEWME]

Smart ideal especially for those who either don’t have the creative know how or time to dump hours into a base.

The comfort bonus is a big one but to go against all those saying that doing this is lazy, if someone doesn’t want to build that is fine. If they do that is fine also.

A neat thing about taking over a settlement is then you can reimagine how you would. Make additions, add decorations, etc. really gives the different locations new life!

I found blue goblet inn on accident and fell in love with the idea of taking it over so tried and yay. I fixed it all up and commented on a couple of these videos about it before i realized there is videos about the place and it is like number 1 in places people are taking over . the comfort level without having to build anything was a big plus . my main base is still in the starter spot and i have a lot invested in it so is still the main . i just discovered Rattlebeak yesterday and set up a flame right by it . I didn't think about making the whole little town mine and restore it but that's my next adventure after watching this :). thnx

The beauty of being able to have so many bases is that you can do both.

[monirogue]

I respect your viewpoint you made some good talking points. I might do this for one of my bases, but I have to say as someone who really doesn't have much experience building I am having sooo much fun with my creativity their tools make it so enticing to do. I love too that you really can build virtually anywhere. I found a tall boulder, and I dug a hole out of the center and put a ladder through it, which is now the entrance to a base I built ontop of that boulder. Granted, no experience building it's not exactly a realistic supported structure, but it looks cool nonetheless I made it 3 stories and it looks kinda like a pirate getaway home. I love it <3 I'm now building a cave home as my 3rd base and so far it's coming out really cool!
