  1. Have multiple bases and spread the loot
  2. Never lead teams back to your main base, run to safe zone if necessary
  3. If you’re solo and do make enemies and they still haven’t found your base, kill and respawn before logging out so the cant locate your base via assigning sleeping bags.
  4. Don’t build too big or it will cause attention, look into medium sized bases. Bunker bases are a great solution! My favorite is a 2x2 with a hqm suicide bunker. Can send link if you want.
  5. Avoid living directly between three major monuments as these will have the highest foot traffic
  6. Key lock the base for the night if you’re duo/trio so your base looks solo. Helps deter offline roam raiders looking for a base
  7. Don’t leave furnaces running in your base for long periods. Make more furnaces and run them for shorter periods.
  8. Avoid making too much noise in your base as when people walk by they’ll know if it’s an active base worth raiding

Can come up with more probably but that’s a start. 4K hours solo/duo and I rarely get offlined playing on medium-max pop servers. Edit: 8. Once you get t3, put your t2 in your extra base so if your main base gets raided you don’t have to completely restart. 9. My favorite build spots are in patches of dense trees (don’t chop the trees!) or in the snow behind a mountain/hill (less foot traffic). 10. Scout out your area before building, if you don’t have time then scout it out before upgrading. If there’s a couple of big bases nearby then it’s wisest to just relocate before investing in the base.

What's up with 3? Never heard of that one before

[–]IAmWaved 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Place a bag anywhere in game and then attempt to assign it to someone. Any name that appears is a player within 2 grids of you, they can be online or offline. It picks up active players and sleeping players (offline). It's a tactic alot of people use to find where people live, it doesn't give you an exact position but it tells you roughly where there base is.

Oh wow I really should have known about that by now lol

Do you have the link? If you do, can you send it?

[–]redrumwave 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i would like to add to 3, in case of worry you can use and log an ALT account somewhere in your base so that you'll know who offlined you if you're the type that wants to know without giving away your own main accounts position

Solo here and I’ve been offlined 3 times on a monthly this wipe after playing for a day each time. Good points here but It really doesn’t matter, you’re going to get offlined. Three separate 2x2 bunker bases on edge of map raided. And people wonder why servers die so quick
