I'll never get over how much this game just turns into vampire real estate

@Senscrall 2 ай бұрын

One of the most important factors for me when choosing a base location is its proximity to cave exits. The cave system is incredible.

WTF 1: Cave system? WTF you talking about? I've seen the icons but my only experience with them is killing a boss and finding the exit to the cave he was in was marked on the map, which seems really stupid considering that, from my perspective, it's marking nothing more than the exit to a boss room. WTF 2: DDG has suddenly stopped working. Regardless of what I search for it tells me there's a problem displaying the results and to try again, so I literally cannot find the answer myself.

@@sokar_rostau WTF 1: On the expanses of the game map there are several marked caves, which are divided into entrances and exits. It is very easy to understand the difference - the exits are located in such a way that it is impossible to get to them (hills with canopies blocking any access), and the entrances are completely free and do not in any way interfere with interaction. This is an instant fast travel that is not blocked by the presence of resources in the inventory. Moreover, all entrances are located in distant locations (Gloomrot, Silver Hills, Cursed Forest), and exits are concentrated in the Farbane Forest and Danli. Most likely you are talking about the boss bear, and for the first time I also thought that this was a mark for the exit from his cave, but this is not so. The exit from the boss is not marked in any way, it is just literally 3 meters from the exit from the cave, the entrance to which is located in the Silver Hills. WTF 2: I have no idea what you're talking about, I don't understand what DDG means...

@@sokar_rostau I believe there are five cave entrances that connect to five exits, though it might be six. I recall one being removed or altered in the cursed forest after an update, but I could be mistaken. Regardless, it's an excellent fast travel system since you can take all your items with you without restrictions. However, it’s one-way, so it's mainly used for returning to your base. For instance, there's a cave in Silverlight Hills that exits far to the east of Farbane Woods.

@YARSCORPG 2 ай бұрын

The beauty of the plots in the Cursed Forest and Gloomrot lies not in the ease of use, but in the atmosphere of the environment. If you are guided only by logic, setting up a base somewhere outside of Danli is a completely crazy idea. There is one exception - the left part of the Farbein forest - since there are exits from three caves at once, which makes the player incredibly mobile. But if your focus is not on speedrun, but on a relaxed, meditative game, if you spend most of your game time collecting resources and designing a magnificent castle, then a gloomy location covered in thick fog or an area with an incessant thunderstorm, where lightning strikes from the sky regularly set fire to vegetation and can even kill you... can become extremely tempting for moving.

I'm still fairly new to the game, but I've been loving every minute of it. This is the game I was hoping D4 would be. Your guides have been an amazing help, and this one in particular. I've been fretting over where to move when the time comes. You've helped me make up my mind, and I think I'm gonna build mine in that plot in SE Silverlight. Gear level 47 and growing fast 😉 Keep up the good work man! It's much appreciated!

@Vinceras Ай бұрын

The two in Silverlight, your favorite and the last 3 plot one, are probably my favorites in the whole game. With your favorite, I used that whole right 'arm' part of the plot as a garden. For the 3 plot one, I used the ground level for storage and my keep, one of the raised plots for my garden, and the other one for my crafting area. Just two really really cool base locations.

@holdmytool Ай бұрын

On the server that I play on I’m in southwest Silverlight, the closest plot to the Brighthaven Dock. While it’s probably not gushed over the most because it’s not the largest plot, it is the easiest to get to, without getting shot at. There’s a little path over a stream and voila! you’re there. It’s close to the vineyards for grapes and making merlot or getting seeds to make your own vineyard. Once you’re higher level 80s-90s it’s nice to be close to the dock for night fishing and gold harvesting, while looking for those 90+ or 100 bloods for your prison. It also has its own pond as well.

@cdgonepotatoes4219 27 күн бұрын

I find limited entry points, limited space and multiple levels inspiring for making castles. My most recent one is the last spot you showcased in the farbane woods and it's the best castle I made, nothing of particular grandeur but closer to what you'd imagine one or two vampires managing with the necessary open space and facilities to hold a small party. I found out I like winding, tall designs, and what I achieved really shows it with the top floor of the main building being accessible exclusively through the secondary building, but going back to the central atrium is just a jump away. The introduction of local teleporters is what made such designs bearable, so I can focus on making nice-looking hallways without having to consider much the walk back and forth, I just need the piece of mind to keep a spot clear where the pad doesn't look out of place.

@AiLoveAidoru 25 күн бұрын

Ngl I picked a spot right in farbane south to the copper mines on a whim! Made early game grinding pretty easy, with a quick source of copper and grave dust within a short walk, and if I needed blood in a pinch I could just pluck off a bear next door. Only annoying thing was that Alpha, Lydia, and Goreswine all patrolled that general area. (Though as I got stronger hearing them get into a scrap with each other often prompted me to build a balcony so I could safely watch the carnage! 😂) Little did I know it was in range of two VERY useful caves for grinding materials later. It’s a little hodgepodge rn but once I get a bit more done in game I’ll definitely pretty it up a bit. I favor practicality over aesthetic anyways in these games.

@martinlepik5981 2 ай бұрын

The one showcased at 8:50 and 7:18 are my favourite spots in whole game. Im a strong believer that as far as location is concerned, these are actually some of the best real estate. All the cave exits are close to them.

@user-ir4yk3jb5q 2 ай бұрын

I think north gloom rot looks better than south gloom rot, but there is benefit in living there. From a PvP stand point both are much like silverlight in that they have enemies everywhere. The norths roaming machines and constant lightning and the souths large patrols and mutant ambushes can lend to defense and act as a deterrent to potential raiders. Your also right next to both power stations and most massive metal deposits. Glass, copper, sulfur, iron, tech scrap, radium alloy and depending on what side of gloom rot your on the silver mine is not far either. As for PvE Im sure Gloom rot can be a decent back drop for a moody castle. Especially with the right colors on the walls and lights.

Ok so, if your playing on PVE server, there is two things to consider, one is the plot size and distribution, and the other one is location, you need to be central, or maybe near a good cave, but overall it doesnt matter. On a NO Raid PVP server, you need to consider proximity with Mortium, because of shards runbacks, so now Cursed forest become very interesting, also the east side of dunley, and places in silverlight close to the cave of Cursed Forest. On a Full PVP server, you need to consider the things i mentioned before, but also choosing a good defensive plot, which is a plot with only one entrance, and with good distance between the entrance and the castle heart, the best ones are the double layered ones.

Id like to point out that Im using a space you didnt cover, the one directly south of brighthaven, its technically tiered, though the bottom part at ground level is quite small, the upper main section is pretty big, and theres enough space to allow for a mostly symmetrical castle, what I like about it in particular is that it has its own stream for fishing, is a 5 second flight the brighthaven AND is very close to a large source of grapes for large quantities of blood merlot, since brighthaven is so close, particularly the docks, you have easy access to large quantities of fish, also lets not forget that brighthaven itself usually has higher quality blood carriers, brute, warrior, rogue, even scholar, theres also plenty of workers around too! While the plot featured up north is also pretty close, the south side is closer to the vineyards, merchants and dock, but relies on bat form for easier access, having bat form wont make travelling difficult from any base really, but 5 seconds is doable, even during the day!

My personal favourite in Gloomrot is the spot just to the right of Adam's place. it's a double plot, but the left one has a humongous southern area to work with, and then the raised top bit is perfect for a personal stronghold. Then therse a bridge connecting you to your neighbour (or your secondary fort if you are playing on a private server) which in itself can function much like a bailey of sorts. There's also the added interesting factor of a Gloomrot patrol moving through that exact area so you have a simulated semi-raid by an NPC faction whenever they show up. Somethin i'd with the devs would/could add in a proper way. ..that and being able to put in a bridge of your own rather than that decrepit looking thing you'll be stuck with. Overall, favourite spot. c:

I dont even know why in PvP you will go to the end corner of the galaxy early on unless you are starting maxxed level or something
