D4u2s0t Posted June 26, 2018 Share Posted June 26, 2018 My biggest advice is to simply plan out what you want ahead of time as much as possible. I think of things in odds and evens... If I have an even number of rows, say 8 tiles wide, and you want to put a door, your door will not be centered. With a regular door, if you want it centered, you need an odd number of tiles. However, if you are building a pen and want dino gates, now you may need even numbers of tiles since they take up more than 1 slot. I try to think of the must haves, is this going to be a small outpost in the arctic? Need a spot for a fireplace, a few torches, chests, etc. Is this going to be a taming pen? I want a big open area with high walls. Is this going to be an armory? Are we going to be running electricity, and if so, how can we hide the wires? I think the planning stage is the most important, if you have a solid idea of what you're doing its much easier to make it happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eESTlane Posted June 26, 2018 Share Posted June 26, 2018 build pve on a pvp server and every beach bob will make you regret it. most of the "cool" builds are not practical nor safe. learn the basics of layering, stacking and hiding from those videos and do a build of your own. it WILL get breached so the most valuable lesson would be to learn from your mistakes.

PVP have also some yourtubers, this advice request came mainlly from PVE community, since PVP is very hermetic and they want to keep their findings for them self, but Captain Fat Dog have some recently "floating tips" that can help you to keep a turret tower for a little longer from those bombing paracers for example. For basic PVP builds i will recommend this video with the top 5 bases and some good tips and tricks, more than a design, PVP is also 50% location and 50% design : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vbnsMUzLwg4 https://www.youtube.com/user/xONEWINGx/featured AND of course one of the best solo and accasional PVP players: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e2_fC7q-OFo&list=PL_h3NNpN3Cb82LDkWDGn7claga95v8mJX Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
