LP gained while they're in your study at a 1:1 rate. Keep in mind you can't reclaim your bond if your authority is too low, so the only time it's really unsafe to have it with you outside is when it doesn't have much authority, and you can't afford to manually raise the authority of the claim by feeding LP into it.

I'm fully aware that you're talking about Presence of Private Claims, but would like to add that Village Claim equivalent, Authority is also raised by gaining LP from any source (by any character oathed to the village), but instead of 1:1 ratio, amount is considered to be modified by Intelligence and Charisma attributes. Note that I'm not aware of any testing to actually verify this.

This is correct, and iirc the formula is somewhere on the wiki, and last time I tested it, it checked out.

Turns out it's Charisma and Lore.

Jorb sent the new formula : Authority = LP * sqrt (CHA * LORE) / 10), where "LP" is "base LP gain" (100% learning ability, not 360%). (30 April 2021)

God I wish they'd document shit rather than "haha go figure out what we ninja add/change retards". Someone had to PM them lmao.

But I digress, yeah, I guess I last checked it in 2020.

In most cases, you should never broadcast your base location.

However if you absolutely have to, you need to wait for the claim to reach 100% power level, otherwise your fresh claim can get rammed almost immediately.

Added that to the original post. it was so stupid and obvious that I almost didn't, but in the end, that's kinda everything else on the list and it happens regularly enough so it probably belongs there.
