Claim is useless now???

[Sevenless]

Dumb question, people complaining are using the leanto "insta-claim" to protect 2 containers in the meantime while they wait for a claim to dry right?

Not exactly an obvious mechanic, but it works as a holdover for your important noob widgets while you wait.

What the fuck, 8 hours? Seems kind of overkill to be honest. What if someone comes and destroys my claim over and over? wont I just be waiting 8 hours over and over untill it isn't fucked with?

That's a good sign you probably shouldn't settle there. Either join a group or move along because the issues are just going to get worse.

Otherwise, do what everyone else is doing and cheese the whole thing using lean-tos and alts. (Though it's a late now for such tactics this world. Someone will just come along and KO the alts till dead or use vandalism to remove a lean-to.

Damn alright. Wish I knew b4 I built a house but it seems like the only way to prevent people from abusing claims.

Find a better location.
I am already seeing people use claims to grief sadly.
