[@meowmix21]

Excellent video. Just a few thoughts. The pillar wall is glorious. Although, 9 out of 10 times people are going to blast through doors as opposed to walls when using bombs/orbs. The other common practice would be to treb out the walls ( they will choose to treb the doors first) . 10k per boulder + aoe damage. So the elaborate wall design is moot. As for foundation stacking or fence stacking...... if someone blows out the bottom foundation/ fence, the whole column comes crumbling down. You can argue that using normal walls and foundations results in less hit points and an easier break in. But when the hole is created and the vast majority of your invested resources poof as the wall crumbles and it opens up the upper floors of your base ( if this wall is bordering a 2 story or 3 story base) it is not as appealing. Normal walls can allow for an isolated break in to the base ( I.e. when one wall breaks, everything above does not crumble) and your intruders path to the inner sanctum can be blocked by many doors. The only viable or worthwhile applications of these beefed up walls is for hiding loot behind a wall which you are planning on reconstructing and deconstructing every time you stash loot, or, building a base up on a mountain resembling a pillar and throwing up a god shield. The reason being is the only way into those bases is by utilizing a treb. In those situations you will want as much hp as possible to soak up treb boulders and demonfire barrages. Even then, when withstanding a treb assault, depending on your clan numbers, it is considerably easier just to keep a mental count of how many boulders are hitting vs your walls hp's and replace the damaged section real fast before it breaks in a spot where they can begin climbing up. like i said, anything beyond normal walls is moot. Your only real defence is going to come from clan members, a well designed base with a lot of doors/walls, and knowing how to defend. All the time and effort put into beefing up walls which people will COMPLETELY avoid, could be put into compartmentalizing your base and expanding it. Location is key though. This is not coming from a scrub that has hardly played the game either. I have seen these walls utilized in bases I have broken into. Your best bet is settling on a good location, out of the way and establishing a sprawling, compartmentalized base. Hide your loot and be active. Most people come with enough bombs and orbs to break into poorly designed bases.

[@WikkydGaming]

I totally disagree with the idea that "anything beyond normal walls is moot". Saying high hit-point walls are useless is like saying it is useless for a tank to have a large health-pool. A normal Tier 3 wall has 70,000 hp. Even doing something as simple as lining a foundation wall with fence foundations brings the total hit-points up to 280,000 which is 4 times the hitpoints of a normal wall. You want high hitpoint walls if for no other reason than to slow down a raider's penetration time. Not to mention that they are going to have to burn through much more explosives to get into your base. It is helluva lot easier to farm building mats than it is to farm for explosives or orbs especially with the recent and upcoming changes.

[@mikewhitaker2880]

the point he is making is that spending the resources on walls for hp is moot when the doors are still your weakest point and easiest entry for getting raided or doing a raid on a base..unless your trollin to blast the whole base to rubble...

[@WikkydGaming]

One of many solutions to that is air-locking. Also as I mentioned in another comment, high hit point walls forces attackers to do precisely that, go for entry at doors, and it is there that you can concentrate an interior defense. Finally another use for these type of walls is plugging multiple unused entry points of cave bases.

[@BloodBornAngel]

Like what Wikkyd already stated, raiders going for your gates/doors is what you want the enemy to do. If the walls are too high in hit points, then the attacker is forced to focus their resources on the weakest link which is your doors. However, this is easy to take advantage of. A simple gatehouse where you make another gate a few blocks behind the first is a great start. You can also put an overhang over this airlock and leave gaps to toss grenades down on the invaders as they head for the next gate. This is how actual castle defenses work in real life, and unless the raiders are extremely well equipped and prepared for a long siege you could hold out indefinitely with only a few gates at tier 3.

Great video Wikkyd, but have you tried triangle pieces? Folding them over against themselves in a line, this makes it a lil more pleasing to the eye as you can round corners this way with still forcing them to deal with at least 3 walls. Not sure how it would stack efficiency wise against the foundations, but it SHOULD be around second for Hit Points?

Very helpful and creative thank you for sharing this knowledge!

[@Reoh0z]

Explosions can pierce exterior wall to strike an interior double-wall. Have you tested these alternate configurations for this?

[@martindouvry8203]

the bomb blast has a total points damage cap, when it explodes the more hp you have the more bombs it takes to get through

[@mitchelweafer6862]

Martin Douvry idk about that. I got raided recently and my base was all t3 6x6 and almost every piece in the building was damaged. All the way to the 4th floor and all the way across. They went thru t3 like paper with bombs

[@martindouvry8203]

@@mitchelweafer6862 was it all the same damage? Being as i have watched certain types of buildings and walls being blown up i HAVE noticed that the first wall closest to the bomb goes down first and the damage happens everyone but not as much as at the initial point. So maybe its a damage radius reduction? The farther away it is the less damage it does? Im not going to profess exact knowledge, especially with all of the updates...

[@WikkydGaming]

Damage past any obstruction where the bomb blast hits is highly attenuated. For example, place a bomb next to a wall then run behind the wall. Yes it does some damage but you will still be alive. Do the same and stand next to the bomb and yer dead. Same goes for other building pieces.

[@chinimon8259]

Bombs have a 30 square blast radius I think the further out the less damage

[@diggles27]

Good info but its only half the story. How do these designs hold up to against jars and orbs

[@guthetanuki256]

Well if you have a fence or a wall in front of a piece of foundation, I would expect there to be added defense, no? Because I think the explosion would have to go through the fence or wall first before the foundation. So if you use foundation as a wall but put a fence after that foundation I would think you would have more defense.

[@njv97]

Thanks for the guide, I would’ve never figured this out on my own :D

[@MrDonaldRich]

Also with snapping issues I found switching to the deconstruct and then back solves the issue

[@iRobathon]

Did the developers remove the option to side the foundations with normal walls? I can do it with fence foundations just fine, but not with the walls. They snap on the tops of foundations, and adjacent if I recall correctly, but cannot be used as siding.

[@WikkydGaming]

Yeah seems so. You can get around it though by building the wall pieces first on a bottom foundation layer, walls on both sides, then fill in the intervening space with the foundation pieces. Lot's of examples like this where you have to building things in a certain order to get them to work.

[@lordzlomek]

Hey man. Awesome guide. I'd like to ask about how to integrate a doorway into a fence foundations + pillars wall. I was trying different configurations and I'm not able to have strong sections above the doorway, just the foundations + double wall. Would love your advice. Thanks!

[@gabrielreis3761]

Dont make doors in walls have the lowest hit points on defenses, its better uss the gatewayon front and back if use the fence foundations and pillars on walls side to the gate way u can make a 3 gateway door wall that really strong use doors in the inside of the base but never on the walls

Well done Sir!

[@doggedjosephapocalypseresp6471]

[@marc-etiennemercier6584]

What about the space around your pillars with the fence/pillars method? If they place a jar in front of a pillar, I'm guessing the middle fence also takes lots of damage?

[@unnamednewbie13]

Won't people also be able to exploit the fence foundation standing if you use the internal pillars method?

[@mangobot232]

They can

[@jxiros827]

I honestly make a wall that incorporates two of these designs into one. I wanted full functioning walls that you could also man for firing out windows at enemy outside of the wall, there is a run way across the top also with little towers on various points of the wall.

[@omnibus4445]

Is it possible to throw an explosive partway up the wall lined foundation to take out a single wall then climb up to where you destroyed that wall to stand on it and regain stamina? If so...it's really not mitigating the climbing that much.

[@Elnis888]

Very informative - thank you!

[@puanineitor]

Great Work!

[@IWLDELJ]

How do you make your charts? I wonder if you'd be interested in some of the stuff I've worked on in the past. I was trying to boil down the effectiveness of (real life) combat elements to a single number off and on for a few years. I wonder if you would have any interest or insight for such a thing. Your style of analysis reminds me of my own methods.

[@robertlewis6915]

Could you put wall siding on one side (exterior) and the foundation siding on the other?

[@therealdannymullen]

This is my thought as well. Extra defense without the downside of standing/resting up the wall.

[@quantumBTW]

How do u place the fence foundations through each other and not have them snap into place I’m on Xbox

[@arcanespearman]

Hmmm. They recently changed one of the snapping mechanics. You can't have walls snap to foundations on the sides like in method 6. And method 2 (the double wall) becomes dangerous because mobs now spawn in your base during purges so there's a chance they spawn in the space between the walls.

[@WikkydGaming]

Yeah I've been meaning to do an update on some of these issues. I just have so little time these days to do videos or even play Conan. In the mean time here is a tip. The best way I've found currently to get walls on foundations is to reverse the build order. Instead of laying down a foundation stack and lining it with walls, place down just one foundation, then build the walls you need 1st. This forms a U shape. Next just place foundations between the walls. The purge problem with double walls is definitely a bummer. Can't think of anything to mitigate that except maybe thralls inside the double wall? Take care :)

[@arcanespearman]

@@WikkydGaming the reverse building order worked great! But you're a harsh master burying thralls alive between the walls.

[@runiccrusader4156]

[@EyesofOd]

Is it just regular foundation? I have tried snapping walls on the outside of foundation but will not snap on. Tried swapping the material and logging out and in but still won't. Is this just a problem on xb1?

[@WikkydGaming]

They changed the building system since I posted this video. If you want walls on outside of regular foundations, you have to build the walls 1st, then fill in with foundations.

[@EyesofOd]

Wikkyd Gaming I see. I wonder if it is an intentional change or a bug. Doesn't make much sense to me. I will try this method as well. Hopefully with future updates they make it possible again

[@Cloud21x]

Wikkyd Gaming where did you go man we need new vids with new tutorials, guides, and analysis to help defend our bases.

[@Matt-Banham]

none of these utilise wedge pieces? since a wall made of wedge structures would require a player to break at least 2 structure blocks to get through 1 tile, would this not be the most effective way to build a wall? i know its how i make mine!

[@ShapeshifterOS]

Was thinking the same exact thing. Also, why not double the layers? Make it twice as thick!

[@robertoeijs]

Why not put foundation walled bothside and then pillar in front, it adds a little roman style to it

[@WyzrdCat]

Is your new Fence Foundation method where you have like 5-6 foundations lined up better than the pillar cross method? Seems cheaper/higher hp. Also, I can't get the fences to snap the way they do in this video, did snapping change on them?

[@WikkydGaming]

Yeah many changes to the building system since I posted these videos. I can only get fence foundations to cross inside a regular foundation when they touch the terrain. Also to answer your other question, the highest hitpoint and highest material efficiency method I have discovered is in my video where I detail how to disable snapping. There I line up 6 fence foundations into the same volume as a regular foundation. Using T3 materials that equates to a 540,000 hitpoint block.

[@WyzrdCat]

Right on that's the one I was thinking would be better. Very nice. Hope to see more of your videos soon :D

[@BinkyTheElf1]

Really good info-- but please move your mike away & down from your mouth & nose.. every P and breath is loud. Further thought: the super-wall (fence/ pillars) can be used around access-points, outer walls, or last defences, in the direction of likeliest attack. Your system gives real flexibility to defensive walls.

[@AureliusDux99]

Is it viable to use tier two in building in PvP servers??

[@guthetanuki256]

No you want to make sure you have black ice buildings which I believe is tier 3 or tier 4. Black ice is the highest tier and generally the one to go for if you have any chance of having at least a decent defense. If you have anything less, you make it too easy for players to blow into your stuff especially on official servers which can be cancerous, toxic and extremely competitive. A tip I would say is to try and secure the top. Foundation has the most life so if you add spikes to the roof and walls of foundation you make it hard for people to blow from the top since rooftops are generally very week and easy to blow into.

[@rohnrehard2828]

So....I am a little late to the game and believe they have taken that out of the game. Can not get it to work at all. Can snap a foundation behind a wall but not the wall to the foundation. Maybe it is because I am on a single player server, or because I play on a PS4. Either way still like your videos. They are very informative and have helped me a lot in the game

At the moment, kinda... yeah :/

[@Higminty]

Not really

[@FumetsuNoAnataE]

Yes and no. Yes because those concepts do exist but no because they're not easy to accomplish. And also no because it doesn't take hours upon hours, especially if you're in a good ten person guild. Mining for resources is fairly easy. Only thing that is disappointing for me is that the servers only allow 40 people. Ark allowed 70 and although they were rarely even half filled, the map was much easier to travel via mounts. I've just started playing and although I've seen a lot of buildings I've only seen one person. Another thing is that the 'normal' PvP official servers have an in game offline raid defense mechanism, preventing you from raiding from one time to another. Some people might like this while some won't be a simple solution would be to play on Mayhem Servers which removed that function. All in all, the function is supposed to remove the problem of Mega Tribes in Ark. The problem is that the 'solution' can be used by those same mega tribes. A competent player should be able to properly defend themselves and once they knock out the kinks with AI you could potentially become an alpha tribe with 1-2 players

[@nickblood7080]

I know this video is old but I can’t get walls to stick to foundations. Is this something that was changed?

[@FumetsuNoAnataE]

Nick Blood I don't know how he did it in the video. I tried but I couldn't get it to stick either. Maybe try a fence foundation or fence piece first, and continue the rest with walls. I haven't tried that but maybe the walls would snap onto the fence!

[@DrGanjameister]

I love you demoed the backwards wall, even though it made absolutely zero difference in strength, or for demonstration purposes. I would have done the same. My guildmate upgraded our walls in the night cycle.. over half of them ended up backwards. I immediately stopped what I was doing and fixed them all. Also, it's unfortunate that the wall, foundation, wall method doesn't work with T3 (reinforced stone). I tried all the tricks, could never get a wall to stack.

[@WikkydGaming]

They keep changing the building system. Some things you cannot do anymore. However you can still do the wall-foundation-wall stack. You just have to construct it in a certain order. First lay down a single foundation piece. Next place your stack of walls on both sides of the foundation. Stack the walls pieces as high as you want the stack to be. Next fill the space between the wall stacks with the foundation pieces. It used to be so much easier to just stack foundations pieces as high as you want, then line them with wall pieces. Now you have to do it in reverse. Walls first, then foundation pieces.

How do you get around issues with stability. I built a house only to find that I can't complete my roof. Now that I have the repair hammer, it shows stability information, but now I can't go back and add more support, such as things like foundations or pillars. Is there any info anywhere that points to some rules of thumb when building or how the stability is calculated? I see a bunch of example builds and how they are built, but I just want some rules of thumb or would like to know how this is calculated so I can avoid these shortfalls in my next house... Thanks for this, as this is the closest thing I have found to what I am looking for!

[@elduriangavriel2130]

So I measure my structures by "Structural HP on path of least resistance" AKA if you were to get in with the easiest method possible, how much structural damage would that take. Here is the kicker. I'd rate all these walls at 0. Because they are all climbable. Easily so. Someone with 0 points and 0 buffs to stamina could climb all these with zero issues. If you add fences to the top. Then blowing the fence off and climbing over becomes the path of least resistance. Making the new rating... whatever the the HP of the fence is. A pure foundation wall is rated as a poor method in this video. But you can put a fence every time two foundations are connected. So for a 3 tile high wall, you can put a fence at the top of the first foundation, at the intersection of the 2nd and 3rd, and at the very top. This means 3 fences must be destroyed to scale the wall. This brings HP damage to scale the wall to 105k or 70k if your damage method is hitting two fences at once. In that scenario the path of least resistance is blowing off a section of 50k HP foundation. 50k damage path of least resistance may not sound that good. But it's quite good when you realize all these walls from this video have a 0 path of least resistance or 35k if you fence the top.

[@evgeniyk7189]

I like the the way you make videos with detailed explanation of what you doing however I will agree with Meow Mix fellow and say that there is no practical use for doing all this (not that I can see at least). This would be applicable if your job was to build a no in or out bunker out in the open with the best defence possible but I doubt that you will have a scenario like that in any conan game. Whats the weakest point of any house, its the door offcourse and I really dont see any sane person building a house with no entrance. So if I were to raid a house I would look for the best possible entry point which in my opinion is either the door or the roof. Why would I ever touch a wall unless I absolutly must?

[@WikkydGaming]

You're not thinking outside the box. With extremely high hit point walls like this, it forces people to do exactly what you are talking about. Going through only doors. And it is there at those choke points that you can concentrate an interior defense. Also we often would setup walls with fake doors. People would blow through a door thinking just like you, only to find more walls behind it. Just another tactic to combine with very high hit point walls. Finally high hit point walls are very useful with cave bases. Many caves are large and have multiple openings . You want to plug those with as high as hit point walls as possible so that in your cave, you only have to mount a defense around one or two entry points. To say high high point walls have no practical use simply is not true.

And to the sidenote What exactly do you mean by fake doors) Are you implying that you would build a base with multiple entrances with only one real one and the other doors have foundation blocks behind them? I dont see how that would be realized in practice because you and your clan members do go in and out of the building and im sure an enemy will see the right door eventually if they are patient or just bring a bag of orbs and it wont really matter Like I said its these fucking orbs that ruin everything cause we used to raid as a 6 man crew with jars and most of the servers became empty because of us but it took time to get powder and shit then guys got bored and moved on to other games. I come back ocasionally but either solo or duo with a mate and now its game over for the little people cause the only defence left is a fucking base close to the sky and removable elevator.

Again, think outside the box and consider an extension of air-locking. With one base design we had last summer, it consisted of two very tall perimeter walls. Yes enemies could see us go through the door of the outer perimeter wall. But it didn't matter. The inner perimeter wall had multiple doors, most of them fake, and there was no way for them to see which door we went into because of the outer perimeter wall. So yeah they could bust into the door of our outer wall, but then they were faced with an inner perimeter wall with like 20 doors that they had no way of knowing which was the real door to use. There are lots of base designs like this that you can come up with given a little imagination.

Can no longer do cross foundations

[@brunobernardini5000]

my regular walls do not fit into the foundation

Welp back to the drawing board

This build doesn't work on console btw.

[@sonofashepherd6668]

Was just about to ask if it worked on console, thanks

[@BloodBornAngel]

Actually, I've tested it out and you can do most of the builds here. The pillars are basically impossible but you can get close. The wall stacking has to be done in the correct order though or they will not place where you want them.

[@jeremysmith9319]

seems like you cant cross fencing anymore like that :/

[@jeremysmith9319]

correction....you cant even do that method at all anymore :/

[@theprodigy1779]
