So I'm doing some renovations at a plot that is totally my own. I originally needed to take out a small gate and a big gate. I'll describe my steps in point form.
- build two wrecking balls in front of each gate
- waited till they dried, could do no damage
- disassembled the one in front of the big gate and built a ram
- later one a whim, tried to wreck the small gate and succeeded. This was with a stronger character so I figured that was the cause.
- brought an even stronger character to use the ram. Waited 24 hours for it to dry. No damage.
- waited 32 hours, no damage. Moved it to a corner post, 50% damage, had to take out some pali to get to is so the ram was working
-repaired ram, waited, no damage
-waited 36 hours, no damage
- reassembled wrecking ball because fuck it.
So how long do I fucking wait? Wiki said 32 hours after initial construction of the ram. Is it longer now or did I fuck up by moving it?
Seriously if these people hadn't quit the game I'd have already been fucked over. Siege bad.
Edit: the claim is at full authority, none of these characters are in the village but have perms.
