Add safe box

[Delamore]

On second thought, it might be pretty complex to create a system that is only as powerful as alt vaults.
It would have to be intangible like a logged out character but also bound to a specific location, otherwise you'd just transport things around in it. Even if it's accessed via your hearth fire you can still move / break those

It might be interesting if the safe box could be purchased in a format similar to verifying an account

That might be the single worst take.


But +1 to OP idea. They already exist via Alt vaults so make them exist ingame.

insanely abusable

Apart from the fact that base sieging will cease to exist because people will hide their items, how so?

What about this thing? Isn't that supposed to do the job? Maybe it needs a buff.

It's still unsafe compared to alt safe.

Alt vault is literally unbreakable unless you compromise the account. Unless someone logs onto it while the base is being raided.)

Avoid both of those scenarios = only thing raiders can do is to break the alt's HF, possibly forcing a wilderness spawn.

Don't remember ever using a strongbox more than once in all my playtime.

Could be nice if instead of lock and key, they were accessed through a permissions system attached to the strongbox itself. Perhaps something like claim owner/lawspeaker of where the strongbox is constructed or the builder of the strongbox would set who on their kin list could access it either by name specifically or by colour? Otherwise only accessible by builder or w/e. Leaving them destructible through siege might also be fine I guess.

Maybe like a leanto or study desk where you gain ownership of it after construction and can set or revoke that ownership. Ownership could persist through death to make it safer/better for the owner. Give them more storage space too. Also, given the current metal progression with regard to steel, it might be prudent to reduce or modify their material cost in order to make them more accessible to the majority of players in a shorter time frame. Unless the intent is for something like that to be a luxury.

and the inventory should be account bound i think, not character bound.

so you can make alt inside base, and insta teleport any item to other side of planet without risk of moving it by land ?
