It is kinda weird there isn't a cave in the Hollowed Mountains, but honestly it's kinda odd they didn't expand the mountains, I thought we were gonna get more snowy stuff to play with.
Yeah they should add a cave in hollowed to mirror the cave in cursed wood
@@TheSweetSpirit Nah. The point of caves is to direct back to Farbane which has by far the most base locations, so it will hold the majority of the server pop. I think the governing idea for settling late game areas is to have a stash base for a narrow selection of materials, and being able to prey on the many players that will be there to farm them as well. A cave that ascends towards Northwest Dunley or Gloomrot would be way too convenient for Ghost Crystal and Stygian Shards. The bases up that way are already strong in their own right with no ground level plots and exceptional access to Gold, Darksilver, Glass, Reinforced Planks, Grease, and Tech Scrap. The cave you're suggesting would round out those locations too well.
the best thing for me, is my own undead horse. being able to call it anywhere is just too nice, and with a top tier horse u can travel real fast.. faster then caves often even..(of course it takes awhile to get ur mount. but even just regular horses are everywhere reall, easy to pick up) but yeah, i also got on the idea of staying in the farbane woods. most seemed to rush to get endzone castles, but then u always just only really close to one endgame zone.. but with a castle mid/west farbane, u can use 3 caves, so have three of the four endzones, with a pretty fast return cave route. and of course with all the portals we have now, u can jump from ur castle close to any area. and then zombie horse with caves, lets u do fast routes quite nice.
The saving grace of the plots you mention at 13:59 is that it's one of the absolute best for early/mid game. The shared back area spawns 2 large Copper rocks and 1 large regular rock, so once you have Bear Form you have an insane source of quick early supplies. Each of the plots has a Rock Golem which is great for using to farm building mats while you're still on bone weapons. It's one of the closest to Dunley Cave exit and mildly close to Gloomrot cave exit. It also is near Lydia the Chaos Archer patrol, Alpha Wolf, Goreswine, and Rufus. Basically adjacent to a graveyard (Goreswine's home) for stone and bone.
I know you're placing most importance on late game, however in most servers with a decent pop you won't see almost any of those top choices available anyway (but yeah I get that this is theorycrafting, and I think you're pretty much on point in all that you said). I think it should be seriously worth mentioning bases that will help with your progression, of which this base is top of the list. Not good for defense, sure, but most people won't raid your T3 or below progression base so it's not a huge concern.
An overlooked bonus for the defense of Hallowed Mountains is that you can pull Frostmaw into raiding parties which makes it much harder to get golems up. The caveat to this is it is non-hostile to Wolf Form. Combined with adjacency to Mortium and Silverlight Cave make the plots with single entrances somewhat decent for late game locations. Oh, and the trees give Oil, so great for the most limited mid-game material.
To the same idea with luring Frostmaw for defending your base, Gorecrusher the Behemoth now patrols the Cursed Forest instead of Styx, although on a long path and kind of a long cycle, so much less reliable than Frostmaw, but much much more deadly. Simon Belmont, Jade, and Vincent too are honorable mentions with their patrol routes that might pass near some bases. This is a much much greater consideration on Brutal servers with how deadly all NPC's are. I haven't yet figured out whether this buff also is given to your servants or Banshees for castle defense.
Just wanted to put this information out there seeing as how it wasn't explicitly mentioned in the video.
You're a machine with all these video drops. Definitely looking back on this video for furure base spots
Thanks for all the uploads, your videos and 1.0 are amazing
Man, I'm pretty new to the game and this video hits. Thank you for the work, brother. Subscribed
I am very happy I found thbis video because you started talking about the cave system and I never even knew this game had the cave system lol. I was in the forrest killing stuff for pristine hide and I saw a red crack in the rock formation and went up to it and it said to enter and I was like okay, so found out it took me to the Clive boss area if I remember correctly lol I was like damn, this is awesome lol :). Very nice video ty for making for us all. Cheers :).
I have a private game set up where you have not limitations on using waygates with certain items. This gives so much more freedom in picking locations you really want to build in
Its like playing Minecraft in creative, but in minecraft it at least has sense...
@@By4o
couldn't agree with you here, since caves make whole limited teleporting having no sense. At least with how they are implemented. They should be either removed or added a lot more, to make other regions more viable. Since currently we have one godspot zone and others are mediocre or just bad.
@@By4o limiting waygate travel in a solo private game is pointless, you can pretty much walk past most enemies so it doesn't make it more hardcore just tedious. In pvp there's player interaction but in solo it's just a pleasant walk home, might as well skip it
Thanks for the analysis. I'm about relocate my base again. Love the caveats. Will moved back to Farband in between 2 caves.
I agree that travel time on horseback is a big consideration but if you have a 10.9 or 11.0 horse with a saddle and utilizing Wrangler's Potion and/or Worker blood and you can zip across Dunley or Farbane in no time. I just utilize the right click to get a nice red arrow line I follow on my minimap and podrace all the way back to base. Not as easy to do in Cursed Forest, Silverlight or Gloomrot but still doable. I just think that western/central Dunley bases become more viable with the sheer speed you can get, the straightness of the roads and the lower levels of the mobs (at later game compared to you).
Yeah for me, while I'm progressing through the game, I'd rather just not have to worry about Wranglers and Worker blood etc. It's true it makes you zoom though
great video!
Awesome video, could you do timestamps for regions?
AND could you do some guides on building what works what doesnt and so on?
Thanks Timmy
We need more caves. Or perhaps a consumable that allows telaporting with loot. Edit: I agree with you
Yeah imo Caves is the best option overall. At the very least, if they add one back to northwest dunley, the rest of the map feels MUCH better than it does now, without making too big of a difference.
True!
one thing I think caves can do is make the edges of the world more fair. basically in some other games like snake, the world wraps around.
I think having caves around the world helps make those bases more appealing.
no.. i think its good and important that u cant tele with every mat. u can teleport with many mats already.. and its good when folks need to travel around. otherwise u just are porting from castle to spot and back. its specially important on pvp servers, to have fun interactions, specially at hot spots n routes. but if u a pve player, u can also just play ur own or a community server, with the settings u like. like being able to teleport with all loot etc. sometime tho, i also think folks need to relax and enjoy the game more. and not always just rush, putting u at endgame so fast, can kinda ruin the fun longer experience, imo. some folks play to play, some play "to finish" the game as fast as possible. but then often complain that they r sad that they yre basically finished already.
Hot take: just remove caves and waypoints
PVE here. I actually ended up in the very north-east in Farbane Woods, aka the spot right next (left) to the new fisher boss who had bullied me out of my usual spot, but it turned out allright actually. I had no clue about Mortium had caves or not, as it currenlt hasnt its actually a fairly short distance away. Also the caves from Silverlight & Gloomrot also both exits fairly close in Farbane. Dunley farmlands is next door so its usually not too bad & you level out of its fairly fast. To my happy surpprice the crossroads just outside my base seem to be a npc-hotspot so quite often when i get outside there is some free stacks of wood & grass piles to quiclky scoop up. I donno how it is in PVP but in PVE you need a BILLION wood (sawdust) & grass for turning into paper into scrolls into schematics etc. So that is actually a bit of a blessing. I can at times hear the fisherman fighting thou, so beware of that if you dont like noice-y neighbours :)
the spot next to maja has a silverlight (T3) caravan that paths infront of it, and incursions are worth so much I think its still amazing even having no caves
Yep, super strong spot.
Amazing coincidence is that I built in the exact spot he was pointing out in farbane woods and how I’ve been using the caves too that’s crazy lucky 😂
Yeah because of the cave system being very favored towards Farbane, my go-to spot is still the 2-Level plot directly west of Bandit Armory and near the western merchant.
Decently close to Iron spots, & like you've said, caves from Gloomrot & Cursed Forest/Mortium. I sadly was late this wipe so I didn't get it first. But let's see if decays, or a change of ownership happens 😉
That's a solid spot for sure.
Could you elaborate what to do in the top right Plot where you can use bat to land between the two bases?
You mentioned them on 17:30. You can Land in between and have place to be behind the big plot, is that a big concern? Sorry new, would love some input.
It may have been fixed because I think someone mentioned it in the beta, but there was a spot in that area inside of the base plot that the devs missed and you could land inside from batform
On PvE it doesn't matter, but PvP, it's a pretty big deal, especially on some servers where you're able to batform with explosives.
When a castle gets raided and the first wall or door is broken, the castle is put into raid mode which causes the walls to take more damage, and be vulnerable by simple vampire damage, not just golems. Explosives will also do tons to walls.
In that plot, if you could batform behind to where the heart SHOULD be kept, and immediately start the raid from behind, essentially making it an instant win on the raider's side of this happens
Hey, great vids, are you planning doing playtrough on 1.0?
One coming soon!
@@terribletimmy2 😍
hahahahaha I have your base in Dunley, but i like travelling because right now im on the hunt for 90+ blood type for blood and farming everything in the world, and gathering 80+ plebs for servants as well, but i havent got to mortium yet even though im lvl60 now, But amazing vid AS ALWAYS BRO!!!!
Hahaha yeah that base is very solid for defense and is still close to things, but after running around tons, it got old haha
@@terribletimmy2 Yeah my main goal for endgame or towards endgame is to get 3 servants for Silverlight, or mayybe 2 and then either 2/3 servants for gloomrot and 1 for dunley and 2 for cursed forest while i run to mortium to farm the new resources there while the serrvants gather shit for me hahahaha
My old strategy early game was to make my base by the horse track so I always have a horse until I unlock the horse ability
This vid needs more upvotes.
Hi, I'm on a weekend only server, and I was wondering if I make a rooftop courtyard/ balconies and a siege golem breaches the base, can people just bat form and land in those areas?
No they can’t land on enemy territory anymore
@@neige1158 Thank you!
What do you think about both spots on the middle of farbane woods? (the one that are under "wo" in farbane woods name)
Location is great, plots are not super great. Issue you're looking at is they can be attacked from both sides.
what If you take both of them and use 2nd base for better defense? they are super close to each other and raiding from middle of them feels like a deathwish. Also if its too late you can take the most important loot and run to other base. Idk if it would work like I said but thats why im asking.
i built a tower on the top section of this plot you pointed at: 10:20 (and probably at too low of a level). I'm having to move it now just because it's too much of an island
Well you can bat form with anything on you. Figured that out on brutal difficulty today, interesting gameplay loop
Wait what... That has to be a bug lol, that means you can batform with golems and raid from behind some plots
Could be custom server rule?
@@terribletimmy2 Not a bug, just an option at the server settings which seems to be the standard setting now. I have seen it on most servers.
If you are competitive oriented players you have to build in Silverlight Hills as fast as possible before anyone else, even after this update that's still the truest meta that ever existed in this game unless you are playing on empty or low pop servers where in all honesty you can get away with living anywhere because it really does not matter.
Gloomrot north is a significantly better location than silverlight iirc in competitive servers. There are too many good plots there to not be worth fully committing to ASAP.
9:55 that’s my exact plot in the north. Say what you may but at least I don’t have to worry about the sun up there…
Just huge bolts of lighting and massive hordes of enemy’s that would melt me if I went out at the wrong time
It's an extremely good plot in terms of defense I believe, but man it is so far away haha
@@terribletimmy2 what makes it even funnier is… I’m in a ONLY PVE SERVER😂😂😤😭 there’s no point in defense so I’m making all that extra work for myself fr
Ppl sleep on wrangler potions too, saddle+ wrangler, sometimes game cant keep up haha
I mean with a good horse that central location is like less than a minute away from any part of the map.
yeah, once u got ur undead horse u prrty good being in a central spot. and can still use 2 caves, for like getting back from cursed forest etc
If you're popping wranglers it's not as bad. Def not less than a minute though.
@@terribletimmy2 Nah bro I held that base in the middle for an entire wipe. Even all the way up in cursed forest its not more than a minute to sprint back to base on a horse with 10+ speed. Hell that was even before the GPS now I would bet it takes less than 60 seconds.
Can we get a castle defence and layout tutorial video soon ?
Check my vids about base theorycrafting before this one. The 2nd half will show PvP castle layouts.
Also I believe on the discord a member there has a REALLY good tutorial via document to show layouts as well
@@terribletimmy2 how can i find the guide? im on discord server but searching pins and by keyword "layout" gives nothing
Some of the caves seem out of reach, is that because you need toad to jump up?... great video BTW
Caves are only accessible from the areas outside of farbane. Fortunately can't frog form up them
I wish they would have made all the caves able to be used for teleportation. Some of those caves are just exit locations which kinda blows.
One of the reasons they did it I think is so you can't cross-map from the beginning of the game, but I def agree they need to let us enter them with something like frog form.
@@terribletimmy2 yeah are at least bat form. I mean who’s gonna be in silver light at gear lvl 6 or even 20 the mobs there hurt like hell. Also you would prob get one shot lol!
West Farbane was used like almost never in pvp tournaments.
Also winners where mostly at the top of gloomrot and to the right of dunley... 0 have been farbane bases.
Spot with most wins is currently still the plot next to the town on the left of dunley village with the old lady boss.
+ most map exits on tournie realms where east dunley. overwhelming 70%+
Yep, none of this takes PvP tournaments into account. It's moreso geared to maximize progression speed along while having a defensible base location.
AFAIK, if you're ONLY building for maximizing PvP defense, I'd just build North gloomrot/gloomrot south in the god spots. Could be wrong though.
I don't quite understand why you changing the approach when it comes to incursions. You literally have the cave North in the forest to take back to your base in Farbane. This cave is closer than any other "prime" bases in Dunley you have discussed. Build the base in Farbane use the cave in Forest to get back after Incursions would be my take.
I talk about this for a very long time in the video? That was my final takeaway haha, farbane still is probably the overall best for access since you can take cursed forest.
But the god spots in dunley are def closer to mortium, and if that's the thing someone is valuing the most, then they should be going for those.
I keep forgetting people actually play with "teleport with materials" off...
why play with it on?
👍
SHOULD YOU BE REWARDED SO HANDSOMELY FOR LIVING IN FARBANE? I DONT THINK SO. LOVE THE GAME BUT CMON STUNLOCK
Eh, it make sense to me mostly since otherwise you're running across the map for literally every resource haha
dunley is so bad for progression, farbane west just so broken because of the caves, but I moved my base to silver hill southeast corner for late game progress, harbor still best place to farm most stuff, and I can use forest cave go back after farm in ruins.
And another thought on end game is built in Hallowed Mountain, if need farm in hills, can use cave back.
Dev definitely should fix some plots is so unbalanced and the cave, I can't imagine how to play the game base in gloomrot
Agree on fixing plots for sure. East farbane is a catastrophe.
And yeah hallowed mountains also has some solid potential
I wished I watched this video earlier T.T
PVP could be in title.
Does base location theory make a big difference in PvE?
imagine playing on a server where caves aren't camped 24/7. not sure i would rate them that highly.
If people are camping caves 24/7 it would be extremely easy to out level them in ~1-2 hours and then give them the middle finger.
If maxed out players are camping exits, then chance servers because you have a group of degens on yours
I so want to craft from storage
Yea the caves arnt ballanced lol its kinda silly
Not being able to TP with loot stuff is utter madness. I would be ok with, say, boss drops or some high-end stuff that might make sense, but when it's just regular stuff, I can only imagine that they wanted to fluff the game time out.
No it was moreso keeping you in the world and for PvP. Otherwise it would just be tping back and forth for individual resources
@@terribletimmy2 I see that point, but many, many other games of this type have had either no restrictions or just a few.
They could easily set a limit, say 20 slots total, and after that, a screen message/menu to say you have too much to TP.
Put a ban on gems, magic items, something that you could pass off as "interfering with TP" " but to block items that you have actually used to construct the very stuff you are wearing.....is nuts.
If we work by that logic, TP would be naked, lol, Like Terminator.
Put restrictions on stuff, but add logic as to why rather than "we want to add play time."
