How can you solve this problem if you only login during raid hours and someone has already flown ontop of your base when you’re not online and is just waiting for raid time to start lol

Hello, im very curious about bat flying. Will flying a bat requires corruption? Ai from archer thralls will aim upwards? til a limit angle? They will can hit the bats? They will aim on the player or on the bat? If the bat or the player was hit the player falls?
I appreciate the resppnse. But 1 day of very unbalanced mechanic can wipe a base…esp offline ability. When if ever will offline meta be afdressed? I say this because every defensive tactic to counter offlining has been “nerfed” or deemed exploit, making offlin8ng the most effecient method. I feel if offlining was “fixed”, many nerfs the pvp crowd asks for would gp away. Because then we can actually engage in siege warfare, and not try to engineer prtotection every new patch/update.

Given that drawbridge hp is being reduced I suspect that we will see hanging bases continue their rise in the meta as well as development of the “doorless” bunker bases where you use bracleting and scouting thrall return mechanics to enter a doorless bunkered base. With the addition of teleportation an updated version of the latter strategy seems the most likely viable option for PvP to me.
It makes me curious as to where the devs will fall on making the teleportation pads private to the owning clan vs. public. I know you spoke briefly to that in the livestream, but I don’t recall a clear decision on that - I could have just missed it. FWIW it seems to me that making them public is a nerf to the small “keyhole” type bunker bases (like in the dam for example) where building appropriate trap/defense rooms around your teleport pad will cost you precious space.
There is also the complications of needing satellite structures to house and defend teleport pads to keep people from easily invading your base. I know this thread is about the bat spell, and perhaps a thread seeking clarification on teleportation mechanics would be more appropriate, so I’ll leave it at that.

Login a few minutes early and apply axe directly to the forehead.

You’ll need to setup a rooftop defense I guess, fighter thralls ready to go at the very top and I guess it wouldn’t hurt to have some fighters ready to go on the floors beneath either, another option I guess would be to setup sloped roofing so bombs can’t be placed easily.

If NPCs can use bats to get into a base, like when a Purge happens, that would be awesome for tower defense gameplay. It would really make you think more strategically for defending your base.

Great visuals…heck even purge type demon bats for bases that can be gotten to from the ground would be super cool.

I do remember Joel promising that there would never be flying mounts. He said this for a reason and has a better idea of the heart of this game than anyone else. Disappointed that this is a thing now.

You know what, I remember this. In the chat we were also talking about adding herbs to the game, way before all the neat stuff we have now. I in particular asked about hemp and Jens-Erik said definitively NO. Then someone asked about Gliders and Joel sort of high-eyebrowed into the camera.
