2) i bet the pclaim is next to townbell like a good player would do so u would need to get to it anyway
3) as soon as said player is attacked by a TbF he would fill the pclaim and your permissions are like JC... gone
how do they not matter?
THE biggest issue with claims is not even the drain, it is the fact they can not be destroyed.
i would be perfectly fine risking a character with thousands of black bile in an effort to take out someone with a giant claim because i can actually win should i reach the claimstone, having to rely on the civilian town system which was not intended for pvp to remove claims is not viable for those of the size discussed
if i go to the effort of attacking some jackoff that is trying to abuse the drain and i manage to get to his claim stone i should be able to destroy it under an active siege, not spend days building authority objects so i can finally spend a million+ for the luxury of refunding all of my enemies claim money into the safety of his bank account.
i do not typically respond to theorizing, but no he would not be able to "just fill his claim back up when you tbf" because if the claim was ever empty in the first place i would not have needed a tbf
unpaid claims lose all protection whether they have a town bell or not, just like the way a non town person can interact on a claim they have perms for. the TBF is for active claims.
