The raid mechanic should be redesigned, it's weird, it's not threatening enough to be a serious consideration in a build, but annoying enough that patching your walls or stonework makes you hate the game just a little bit more every time it happens.

I'm on a private server playing solo just for clarity on my experience.

I'm not sure I'd agree that trolls are not threatening enough. I take troll raids very seriously unless I am in my main base where the walls are high enough to keep them out. Even then, they can do serious damage to my bridge and my single ground entrance with multiple layers of spiked palisades.

In fact, my greatest anxiety right now is that I will be docking with my hard earned iron and a troll raid will breach my port defenses and destroy my karve before I can kill them all.

I also see starred enemies during raids - so maybe that is a new thing? Or did you just mean more and higher starred enemies for the intense raids?
