3 walls won't be enough either. I would say you are going to need 1000s of granite to build your walls, as 100s of granite is peanuts.

I would agree that the ratio of defensive effectiveness to raiding ease is imbalanced right now. It is still technically a beta so hopefully they will get that sorted eventually.

But still, you had practically zero defenses from what I'm seeing, and you stockpiled a bunch of resources. You played like a fool and got gamed. Either learn from it or quit, choice is yours. Everything I have on my claim could be completely stolen and I'd still be able to rebuild from it. Would definitely suck, but it wouldn't be the end of the world. Everything of value is either on an alt (stuff I absolutely don't want to lose), or stored in a locked metal chest (stuff I sort of don't want to lose).

Just be thankful you didn't get run through by some griefers, could of decimated all your buildings as well.

lol that 400 was just to finish that first wall, i know you are right about needing thousands. and thats where the motivation killer lies, if i need to play some 18 hours a day just to secure my place for weeks before i do anything of any practicality or interest.

all it does is encourage people to make chars to grief... umm which would make this a java version of darkfall. lol

No matter what you do to protect your base or how much time you spend doing it, somebody will still come around and smash it all while you are asleep. Its just the nature of the game. There are supposed to be 2 more walls implemented at some point, and hopefully one of them will be strong enough that nobody would be able to break it with their bare hands.

Maybe there should be some kind of time consuming thing the raiders need to do before wall breach, like making a ram.

I'd rather they simply made buildings and braziers a lot more durable. That way a raid would be more likely to just take some items rather than level the place just because they can.

Lamenting your lossed items, venting frustrations, voicing your displeasure, all fine. Why come here and say you are quitting? You think u going to guilt trip yer raiders into coming clean? This is a PvP game. Also, it is in beta and in need of some balancing. You should be well aware of this. I fully assume my claim will be raided...

** when it is, there will be no iron stolen, i guarantee it.
