Hey fellas I’m trying to find some little hiding spots for very small bases.
Any recommendation or ideas?

IF we told you, we would have to k… you. Seriously, there are no real super secret spots (legally anyways), but basic rules i follow

  1. smaller, the less likely it is found.
  2. Alchemist station—make sure the light is off. Every time you interact with it, it turns the “fire” on or off regardless if you are crafting. Also gets turned on at server restarts.
  3. Stoves and Furnaces should be put facing in game structures to make sure light is not seen while crafting during nighttime phase.
  4. No dancer in the base. Could give away by “entertaining” if someone gets close enough.
  5. Less thralls the better. they are chatter boxes.
  6. Learn certain cheese ways to go to and from your base. Midnight potion is a great port out, and bearer returning home can move loot back.
  7. If you do not use the cheese from rule 6, then if you think you are followed, you are being followed…don;t go to base. Loot is easier to replace than hidden base.
  8. Be a Short 4 Richard to your clan mates if they aren’t following these rule.
  9. Most important, if you think you have been found, you have been found…move to anther spot or prepare to be raided.
  10. Remember, in the end it is a game, and if you are on a PVP server, then well, expect PVP.

Keep in mind that many players will use the bedroll-check trick to find hidden bases.
That’s when while running through the world a player has a bedroll, campfire or any other cheap placeable hovered over the terain as if they would build. If they run into landclaim they are being notified instantely. That’s how many undermeshed bases are found, but of course it’s helping to find small legal, seemingly well hidden bases as well.
Otherwise most stuff has been answered already. If you can’t compete in open combat with a clan, don’t expose your base to them and start building stashes with starter kits in case you get raided. Even having a couple of armor sets, weapons and tools and handful of t2 or t3 crafting thralls will save you a day of work after being wiped.

Light discipline is also very helpful. Build in small places where people don’t heavily traffic nor tend to look (like elevated positions that require climbing – no elevators or stairs to “point out” your base).

If you build a base with a single wall, light can shine through. If you build with a double wall (place the walls in a box formation and then place a foundation inside that box), it tends to obscure light much more. It also makes it harder for people to break into (adds to the cost of you being raided). The downside, is it increased the size of your base.

If you want to build a base, expect it to be raided. Build a literal maze of a base with multiple doors and dead spaces filled with just foundations. Make your enemies use enormous amounts of explosives to get through your base. Make the cost of raiding your base ‘not worth it.’

But if you REALLY want to engage in guerrilla warfare – don’t build a base at all. Have multiple stash boxes where you hide your crafting stations. Live off of the loot of your enemies as much as possible (use whatever you take from them). Stay mobile and don’t give your enemies a ‘target’.

I really wish there were wild camels out in the world to hide a mobile loot chest/base amongst.
