Oh my. This actually frustrates me a little as I've known about the bear destroying crossroads since midway world 5 when finding one just outside my town. Ever since I'd figured if they could do crossroads then it would be no different with a village idol- But I'd never actually realised it meant this.


All those hours and days of tracking I thought were wasted but really could have been the most delicious raids of my game history :cry:

Let us remind ourselves of his bravery and willingness to fight for the safety of his friends!
Let us hope he can surpass his previous achievements in his future lives.

Animals don't spawn on pclaims, so anyone with a massive pclaim covering their place is pretty much safe from this o_o

Trust me bug exploiters will go up and down the river system where you live till they find a bear and tame it. Then they will bash / ram into your village with the bear they might have found 1000s of tiles away. Unless you live on a island that can be cleared of all trees its possible for raiders to get rid of your idol. You should either Wall it in or place it near ridges and put mineholes / anything truly indestructible around it if you feel paranoid.

Unless this bug is fixed anyone living on supergrid lines or on massive islands they will never be safe from this exploit. Specially coupled with the bugram even large factions can be bugrammed up to the idol wall and have there walled in idol removed.

thats true but unless you really pissed someone off or have tons of good valuables people most likely won't care enough to do it. I completely agree its possible that people would still do it though

I don't do indestructible. I'm not a cheating kind of person. Island with a wall is the best I will do.
