on pvp server the point that is important is the spots you own, so your base, it can take months or even year to acquire a spot on a particular server, the farming stuffs you can get in few days. that is the point for solo player or little clan. huge clan will not care about spots, anyways they never stay more than 2 weeks on a pvp server, and jump from server to server, which is not the case of solo players and little clan.

in my case it took me around 6-7 months to acquire the crevice (after long fight and ability to surive on a pvp server who was populated by 40 people at this time). it was when conan was in a better state 4 or 5 years ago.
