    Hey that looks like my base! I got medieval on that sh*t and dug a bedrock ditch around the land side and stakes around the sea cliff too. Also set spikes opposite one another to do extra damage on knockbacks. However 4 double gates are indefensible by one lone viking, so I am sealing them up. Skeleton and drauger open the doors and enter. Also timber walls like this can stack vertically around gates and behave like roofs protecting embedded core wood beams, gates etc.

    I just found the smallest swamp biome ever, it has only one of those indestructible trees and a small plot of land, and two of those ancient trees and that's it. I'm building my base there currently using the tree as a foundation, then teraforming the area to my needs. If only swamps could grow more stuff.

    Raised ground wall and/or moat trench is the best defense. Keep those pesky trolls out. And combo that with the stake wall on top you don't have to worry about any ground based raids. Still haven't found any feasible defense against air raids.

      I raise an area large enough for a home. It doesn't need to be high, just needs sharp edges so mobs don't have a pathing up.
      Stay a few meters from the edge with your build as trolls still have some reach.
      As you don't need to have any walls, and your build is a little raised, it makes it not ugly but more beautiful.
      You can plant trees and grass to let it blend in better if that's what you like.

    1. Build a building for spawn point and workshops.
    2. Make the entrance 1 short wall off the ground so you have to jump into the door.
    3. Be ignored by mobs who can neither see you nor path to you.

Also a great tip setup a ward it reduces the dmg on buildings in the area and overall youre completely protected from most raids only problem being Seeker scouts and bat raids

  • @greenthunder1000
    @greenthunder1000 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    You want a high wall so trash can’t see you in your base. If they can’t see you, they won’t know you’re there and will cease to be a problem. A low mud wall with stakes on top is a high quality and low cost defence.
