Claim too young?

Postby Leon232 » Fri Feb 19, 2016 5:39 am

i dont know if it was a mechanic that was added mid-world8 or not but ive noticed my claim is utterly useless at the moment, i've looked around a bit and cant find mention of the change.

Does anyone know how long i have to wait for the claim to actually function?

I think it is 8 hours? Before you are able to fill up it's presence and it will actually start working like a claim

It is 8 hours, and yes, the number of claims wasn't changed.

If you missed the other claim changes during the last world, if you try to place a claim and already have one or more, it will cost you 4000 LP.

Hello friends.

I have a similar concern. I made my claim, somebody walked in, thankfully, they gave me some free stuff and left. <3

My claim is not 8 hours old, (I think? It has been a long night) and the Presence meter is full. (used some of my LP because this NEEDS to be secure.)

Soooo. Is my claim good now? There's no random strangers around to test.
I wish to join a SMALL community or a newish player.

My fave tasks are Hunting, Fishing, Mining, Building, Crafting

I like free stuff so please keep it in the claim or I might claim it myself. Fair warning anybody could do it :P

It's not possible to be less than 8 hours old and have presence. Any indication of it being that way should be considered a bug.

Did developers really think that making players defenseless for 8 hours is a good idea? My base just got looted and even though claim was there already for around 4 hours, it was still useless. All my ore and curio is gone, I am lucky that thief was so nice that he didn't destroy all of my stuff in there.

If you have a better solution to the converse problem of cheap claim griefing, I'm all ears.

i agree, seeing as within 10 minutes i can spawn and alt and get the LP needed for yeomanry its definitely fair to a degree, annoying but fair
