Okay this is just annoying

Takes roughly 2 game days to tame boars, then about 2 days to get them into your base and get your pen setup, then suddenly, dragon invasion! you hurry up into your house to grab some food and arrows, and come back outside, and your tamed boars are dead....

This has happened 3 times in a row now.... it is utterly annoying and makes you want to rage quit.

This has nothing to do with a lack of skill or preperation, this is RNG just fing your over and setting you back hours. Please make changes to prevent this scenario.

Heh, thanks. Not my original idea tho. I just saw a breeding build I liked and modified something like it for my own needs. Have two breeding pigs in a little wood structure just big enough for them, then have a pit below deep enough so the piglets dont stop the breeding process.

If an attack smashes up the breeding pen on a pole at least a couple of pigs will be safe in the pit and you can easily rebuild stuff. Having them deep down in a pit makes harvesting easy too. Just a single smack with the iron sledge and its all done. :)

Great idea! because the most annoying part was having to go out and tame new boars ><

Raids/events all have the same basic requirement: a player must be present for one to start.

Except for the "You are being hunted..." event, a player must also be in a location with enough fires, crafting stations, beds, portals, or other qualifying structures to count, in game terms, as a base.

Wake up. Eat Big Food. Build Muscle. Stock Arrows. Kill Modor. No more Wyvern event. Try and look like that Gilgamesh sticker for Civ 6.

One way to define insanity is to keep doing the same things and expecting a different outcome.

Drakes die super easy with arrows. Where did you build your base? in the 939 hours played and about 50 hours of that between killing bonemass and moder and the same between moder and yagluth, I have never once experienced a drake attack on my base in the Meadows.

Built in in the starting meadows, I have no clue why I constantly get harrased by Drakes either since we haven't downed Modor yet, only Bonemass.

Maybe because i'm playing on a dedicated server with others ?

This game does a lot to encourage building underground while also not really supporting that. :/

Yeah that'll do it. Game progress is on a per-world basis, the server doesn't give a crap what you personally have done.
