I don't know maybe. I just feel like at the end of the day, farming for 4 hours. to have a ship destroyed uncontested while the company is completely offline for the first time in 16 hours in less than a couple minutes is extremely broken. I can build an entire base quicker than one ship. Yet the time to demolish the former is much longer than the latter?!

 

stone walls take 10 regular cannon balls to destroy, they are as weak as ships

this happened to a neighbour of mine, just a schooner with 10 large cannons stacked on one side did it

they were neighbours but decided to stab them in the back while they were offline, the NPCs are next to useless without someone monitoring them

I have come to the conclusion that you are better off just not playing the game, you grind for hours making glass cannons that can be gone in 10 minutes

offlined a guys base with just 11 cannon balls and stole thousands of resources, I think I will do same to everyone else on the server considering how easy it is

did you sleep on the claim or not?

as far as I am aware you have to first kill people sleeping before claiming

What level were you that you were getting that much XP after a few shots?

from level 8 to 24 if I remember correctly, lure them to swivel guns to make it more effective

shoot at alpha animals from a distance with firearms

I was leveling after 2-3 shots, don't even need to kill them

The end game combat is fire arrows, they beat every other weapon in the game

The burning ground kills you in less than 5 seconds regardless of what armour you are wearing

Its a joke and i'm not playing until it changes

had a guy in glider fly onto my schooner out in the ocean and repeatedly set everything on fire

killed him several times but he just kept flying back with no gear and fire arrows which we just couldn't counter as you cannot see a thing when someone is shooting fire at your face

Well solo/small/medium and non-chinese large groups can live in the lawless ghetto. Try not to die there as Wildcard takes your respawn away tomorrow.

Read in the PVP forum, there is no chance to survive as european or NA big company.

The chinese build more stone  than you have cannonballs. A clear proof that balls are overrated.

They already have taken respawn away from lawless, seeing as I just spawn at bottom of the ocean on lawless lands. Have been placing beds on rafts in the sea to counter this since last week.

I'm in a 3 person company and we are having a fine time raiding bigger companies

wiped a 10-15 man clan the other day and sunk 3 ships of theirs

(then again I do have about 3,000 hours on Rust, so the experience and strategy helps)

it doesn't seem to log claims from smaller clans, I've visited islands that show no claim on the official map but are totally covered by claim flags

Not decay, it would said decayed. My guess is that people found a way to under mesh now. If that is the case you won’t wven be safe on top of a mountain. GG

ah I see, thank you for confirming that, I wasn't sure if you would get message for decay

Anyone shed some light onto why I lost a schooner?, it was anchored on a lawless island. Here are the logs:

raft ramming? decay? ship of the damned? would be nice if the log was more detailed so I could learn from this
