Thanks! Yeah these mountains kinda remind me of the floating mountains in China, so a pagoda just felt right!

100% agreed

Thanks Joanne! Yeah, unfortunately Mistlands is an absolute BRUTAL location to build in while in survival mode so you would definitely have to beef up the defenses for sure

You can build in Mistlands with 100% safety. 1. Look for a series of hills/rocks that are not on steep terrain. (Steep terrain leads to accidental roof collapses and the ground you can level will lead to a steep and useless incline). 2. Before you make an enormous cave base, decide on the door, but don't cut it out. Instead, angle at 30 degrees from the left or right until you reach the spot. This way giall cannot line of sight your door. Keep the path narrow so seekers also cannot use it. 3. Outside, note where the super big, spear like rocks are. These must not be hit. Once inside take out all the smaller rocks and the floor as it allows. If in doubt, take screenshots -you need to know your rocks. 4. Once mined out. fill in any small holes with black marble/iron cage and put roof pieces under them (tar pieces are sharp and match the sharp dark rock asthetic inside), or there will be no comfort bonus in that spot. You should end up with about 3 gentle levels (stone stairs) and room for everything. 5. Raise the ground wherever possible outside e.g. try to bury door sides. The cave base will still trigger attacks - they will hang out noisily, then leave.

Thanks so much! Yeah I thought this concept would work out nicely here. The mistland mountains kind of remind me of the floating mountains in China, so Pagoda immediately came to mind :) yeah the staircase did work out rather well! Sometimes the extra time and work of using the customer floor technique definitely pays off! Thanks for watching and appreciate the support!

Thanks Cherry! Glad you like this one :)

@@smittysurvival oh i lurv everything u do :)

Thanks Jimmy! Appreciate the support!

Thanks so much! Glad you liked it! Mistlands offer some gorgeous locations to build!

Mistlands is gorgeous! Loving the views!

Thanks Fade! Yeah I love the idea of dressing up portals! Really adds a nice bit of flair to an otherwise standard Item. I'm actually going to be making a video on a couple of design concepts I've developed for different parts of the game, Early --> End Game. Stay tuned! Appreciate the support :)

Thanks Canorous! Yeah I love the bold unique look of the marble, but it certainly doesn’t go with everything so it’s fun to mix and match to see what works! Great idea on how to break up all the marble look. Sometimes it can be a little too much if you don’t get some contrasting colors in there lol

@@smittysurvival oh yeah i learned that lesson in my forge interior; the weapons hung on the wall just blend in too much with the marble. but i plan on fixing that in the future builds ^^ i did post a video of the build if you'd like to check it out maybe i can get some pointers from you on improving things XD

Thanks Dhakhar! Haha oh goodness here we go again 😂 Dhakhar is getting inspired which means we're going to get some absolute magic/wizardry! Can't wait to see what you come up with!

Thanks so much! Appreciate the support as always! :)

Haha yessss. Lancelot knows how it's done. Never start a Smitty video without a snack or drink 👌😂

Thanks Fia! Loved your Japanese Village build btw. Hope to see more from you as well!

Good question on the marble pillars. I thought about using marble, but I thought the wood contrasted better with the surroundings and marble platform above. I do see you point though that wood might not make sense in reality lol

Thanks so much Jelly Jam! So nice to see someone who has the editing eye and recognizes the hard work! Big fan of your content as well, you've really been taking off recently which is great to see! Well deserved - your content is HIGH quality stuff! This was my first time trying to get into the animation side of editing, and it's super daunting, to figure out, and takes a bit of time but It's a really cool once you get the hang of it, and managing all the key frames! I actually use Davinci Resolve (Free Version) You can do simple fusion animations without getting the studio/pro version which is great! Fusion is really confusing at first, but this video by Casey Faris helped me understand the basics of creating your own simple animations and setting key frames kzfaq.info/get/bejne/d5uhra6fmLWYkps.html

@@smittysurvival dude I USE DAVINCI too 🙈 so excited to try some of this stuff, though it seems daunting alright and it works so well with a building vid like your one here, tbh I just want to learn that tracking text that pulls away with the shot, that looks so dope! Thanks so much for the kind words and the help, really excited for your next vid!!!

Lmao 🤣 the bean seller would be proud!
