Foundation spamming is a huge issue in official servers and needs to be addressed, the entire server is dying due to a tribe that spams foundations everywhere just to troll and grief everyone. Please explain to me why this is allowed.
Steps on how to reproduce issue:

Here’s another image outside my base they can’t raid me so they decided to just troll, this is ridiculous and was done in about 10 mins right before raid time ended this will take 100s of bombs to clean up.
Pvp server? If so land claim spam is not uncommon bc of how the land claim system works. A lot of big vet clans will spam fields of thousands foundations/objects around their bases just to prevent other clans from building near or counter land claiming. They will also spam land claim around enemy bases too just to build fobs or prevent enemies from repairing or expanding defensive structures around their base.
It’s just part of the meta unfortunately.
That’s why the land claim mechanic needs changed.
Why not build a trebuchet and destroy all in a couple minutes?
It’s not that easy when they are making the spam faster than we can use a treb. It’s getting out of hand and killing the game.
We’ve had so many allies that have quit playing due to being fed up with this stupid spam tactic. We need another option where we can remove structures without having to craft a ridiculous amount of bombs adding.
If you look at Ark, they have dinos that can munch through structures. At least it’s not costing a fortune compared to the crap we have to make with conan. I couldn’t imagine spam would be much of an issue if there was this option.
I’ve suggested a land claim flag radius ( maybe 3 flags per clan) mechanic but even that would get abused with alt clans. Other restrictive measures would also limit building creativity. So unless the devs want to make major changes the meta still stands.
I still believe my idea is what they should use.
That idea was that making a ring of foundations should claim 3 foundation blocks out from the ring and everything inside the ring. If there is already a land claim inside your ring, your ring would be invalid (can’t wall in other players).
Also: standing torches, bedrolls, and campfires could be placed on other people’s claims with a 24 hour decay timer, but the land owner could dismantle them immediately if they wanted to.
That would end or at least reduce issues with land claims and foundation spamming pretty quickly.
I’ve quit now. I’m not salty and throwing my teddies out of the cot, I just can’t be bothered to keep going. The clan in question have slammed more and more around the base, sinkhole, blue ob and starting to build a wall around around the sinkhole ob too. Not to mention just south of asgard.
Its turning the game into being unplayable. I’d be happy if there was an easier way of removing the spam without having to craft hundreds of bombs to do it.
6hrs to remove spam compared to 24hrs to place it everywhere is the biggest issue of all. Anyone can make sandstone foundations in a few seconds. Crafting a bomb takes ages if you are running out of resources.
Just make it easier for us to demo tier 1 foundations at less of a cost.
Well it will always be cheaper to build than to produce bombs / trebuchets / etc
So all anyone really has to do is spam for stalemate. Now there is some tribes that will grind the bombs to clear fields of black ice spam but unless they’re beyond petty(and maybe even more toxic than the spammers) with lots of free time most people give up and just find another server.
You would think certain building placeable items would already be able to be placed anywhere (There should be such things as siege ladders for example ) but I guess it would be no simple fix to implement.
The land claim radius bug though is also the main big driver for land claim spam bc you can quite literally wedge counter land claim during raid hours and prevent defenders from rebuilding. So to truly defend the landscape must be paved with spam.
