Yeah I really like this idea and I have thought of something similiar before, maybe like a stage 1, stage 2, stage 3 progressing through the ages sort of thing?

Sounds great. I'd love to use that in my next playthrough.

@@TwujStary69420 that's a good idea, I usually tear down and rebuild when I want to make more room

@@vetlive3669 yeah, perfect! Most difficult bit would be planning so there's a fireplace for each stage I think.

Love this idea!

Sadly you'll have to regularly repair them as they are exposed to rain

I’ve built two of the Vetlive builds one a Massive Dock and the other a Longhouse in the meadows fairly close to each other but still not that close. It’s also on a Multiplayer Server where there is no Terrain Manipulating in the rules, so digging trenches or massively raising the land is also out. What I elected to simply do is just get out the house and fight the mobs as well Trolls as I’ve had a few of those along with Swamp raids. But if you just get out the house and your seen by the enemy they will chase you vs attacking any your structures. You the player has to be smart enough to kite the enemy and kill them away from build structures where applicable and kill them while kiting them around, but again away from structures. I’ve done that in well over a dozen plus raids and not a single piece of structure was destroyed. And this is on a multiplayer server with no terrain manipulation rules. So it’s far easier on a solo server where a person can do whatever they want for defenses. Another option is just to put a wide defensive fencing area around a landscaped build like in the video. Workbench the area inside so nothing can spawn inside the fence. So invasión raids are always outside the fence and you can fight the enemy there or kite them around outside there. The invasions barely last 2 mins, so it’s not a long time for base defense. But build solid reinforced walls for base defense. For me my builds have no walls other than the sea dock that has a fenced area as part of the dock build. As soon as an invasion starts and I’m there, I get out of base and show them the business!

@@ardentdfender4116 That's what I usually do -- run outside since the mobs are attracted by the player not the structures ... I do play unmodded so I do tend to create large walls or moats just to not have to worry about it ... ;)

You can avoid massive trenches or walls and still have an area well defensible, one stone wall height is enough to prevent most mobs from getting through. Usually i tend to build on a slight hill, encircle it in a ring of stone wall, have the terrain on the inside flush with the top of the wall and terrain outside at the bottom. One stone wall is high enough to block almost all raids, but low enough to jump up so it doesn‘t inconvenience you, plus you can shoot mobs that pile up on it from the safety inside. Applicable to almost all house designs, anything that doesn‘t sit on a slope or in a ditch, looks great, and protects any fragile pretty structure as long as it‘s not in rock throwing distance lol.

As far as I can tell he uses a command for unlimited resources and free building (not needing workbenches etc. to build), but not flying. Not sure what else

@@pfunkle I've made this build in survival, and I can tell you, it is a ***** to gather all the materials. Worth it though, pride of Einric's Landing in my community's server

It's called Knight's Templar by Adriel Fair

@@vetlive3669 omg thank you

@@vetlive3669 Do you have a playlist with the music you use in your videos?

I'd love to find that playlist too. Cheers!
