Humunculus Posted August 28, 2017 Share Posted August 28, 2017 Two towers out of just thatch and wood ladders a bed each one at your base then the other near a metal spawn area but not too close to block and parachute acrossthis will allow you to quickly transport metal and avoid the use of tames and dangerous dinos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your thatch tower would be gone every day lol plus easy target for ranged weapons while parachuting.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Humunculus Posted August 28, 2017 Author Share Posted August 28, 2017 Okay one "A quetz" sure if you can get one and protect it also i said without the use of tames. Second a parachute i said parachute. Third depends on your server i guess i did it on server 1 nobody bothered it the alphas thought it was cool im sure quite a few people used it for fun i never made it inaccessible so there was no reason to destroy it.

Humunculus Posted August 28, 2017 Author Share Posted August 28, 2017 Its not hard you fast travel to resource tower then parachute all the way back home its really not hard its really good if your not able to carry alot or protect yourself that well.Be on the brink of encumberance but still run and youll be fine.

SpCowboy Posted August 28, 2017 Share Posted August 28, 2017 U better tame an archa, is a permanent parachute and weigth doesnt affect it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supaciv Posted August 28, 2017 Share Posted August 28, 2017 Or have a hide farm because chutes arent reuseable and cost alot of hide... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Humunculus Posted August 28, 2017 Author Share Posted August 28, 2017 Hides not hard to get diplodocus isnt hard to kill then they give loads of hide. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CatInFire Posted August 28, 2017 Share Posted August 28, 2017 Instead of making lot trips with 200-500 weight on char - tame an argy, lvlup it in weight and dont make your life more complicated than it need to be Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oldster Posted August 28, 2017 Share Posted August 28, 2017 I like it, better than my idea of getting resources across a river with dual parachute towers, i didnt think of fast travel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeZiLL313 Posted August 28, 2017 Share Posted August 28, 2017 But in all honesty, for me, as a solo pvp playrt on official servers, i usually dont have good wieght fliers for long. Imho the easiest way for me to get metal is to mine it on the southern hill between stonehenge and green river. If someone hasnt already built a forge area I can use, then i just mine the metal and hide it in a small storage box covered by a stone foundation and wait for the drop near there. Upload metal to the drop and then download it at a drop closer to base. Drops are one of your best friends in solo pvp, ontop of my regular supply caches around the map, I usually upload gear and supplies to a drop before I log off so I know I have something to start with for sure next time I log in. Paracuting across the map has too many risk imo, any player on a flier who sees you, will take you out 9 times or 10 in my experience Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SmokeyB Posted August 28, 2017 Share Posted August 28, 2017 Why not build a 2x1 with a few forges and a smithy next to the mountain. It would be quicker than a thatch tower and then you can just cook metal there. If you have no tames you may as well make it your Base, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PuffyPony Posted August 28, 2017 Share Posted August 28, 2017 I remember a while back some guy made like five or six threads using an idea like this claiming that it was the most efficient harvesting option. Honestly, an Argent, weight-boosted Wyvern, or Quetz will get the job done, and early game you don't really need a lot of metal so you can just use a Parasaur or Iguanodon or something Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
