Hey folks,
anyone want to explain to me how one goes about destroying a claim stone without KO-ing yourself? (It's on an abandoned claim)
As Ive been made aware, it drains BB to do criminal acts and will eventually knock you out until either murder/kick/crime debuff time up...is there a recommended level of BB to have before you attempt this kind of stuff? Not sure how hard a claim stone is to destroy...Advices, please!

Need about 60 BB or so, and about 50-60 phlegm

Destroying Claimstones is not a big deal, but it depends on how big the pclaim is you have to go over, because the BB drain starts, when you start to trespass it.
At least it should be possible to destroy a claimstone on a small pclaim with around 100 BB.

Note that the base drain for the first few waste acts usually is about 40bb, you can reduce that with some criminality gear. So 60 BB and 50-60 phlegm like Paradoxyc suggested would be your aim without any criminality gear and for very small pclaims.

Yes, at very small pclaims.
But without any experience in doing crime leads into a very quick KO, if he just aim 60 Biles.
But if he is fast and don't waste time when he goes to the stone directly and destroy it, then it could work.

Ok I'm not that far off from being able to knock the claim down then, thanks guys! advice 10/10

Just saying, you know that you should use an alt for this, right?

Doing any crime has the potential to end in death for that character, you simply never do that with your main.

Also, you can put up a claimstone yourself to cover the area and place something sturdy on the scents, like the all famous kiln, to make it more difficult for others to get to the scents.
Please note I said "more difficult" and not "impossible".

Take care!

Like he said, he just wants to run into an abandoned pclaim and destroy the stone. With 60ish BB he should have enough time to destroy it and have maybe 10 BB left. If there's a torch I recommend 70 with a minor criminality set

Also @OP just so you know, Criminality artifacts are all relatively easy to craft save for the last one or two. Slotting can be difficult for newer players (low TN) but you can ask some older players like myself for help if they are willing

i'd definitely not recommend it with a torchpost on your main char - unlucky crit sequence means DbD (death by drain)
