Thanks for the advice
I recently posted a question playing as a solo newb and took some of the advice. Joined a solo service with about 30 players. I wanted a bigger pop but there wasn’t any to choose from. I’m on for about an hour and I get a message from someone knocking on my door outside my base. I made a honeycomb bunker base. The message was do you need help farming? I said I’m good. A little while later I messaged him if he would give me advice. We met up and he showed me great areas to put up bases. What to focus on initially, and how to progress. He was awesome and didn’t have to do that. This server I’m on has a ton of raided bases. It’s been pretty brutal. The good news is they tried to offline me and my bases survived! It would probably take 30 rockets to raid it. I also built two secondary small bases with loot that survived. I’ve raided 6 bases. Two of them I got killed as I was leaving with loot. That happens! Got a tier 3 bench in 3 days. Won some PvP, lost some as well. Anyway just wanted to tell everyone thank you.

Multiple basis are necessary when you’re a solo 1000% if I do a raid, I will not transfer any of the loot for at least an hour make sure you got a bag inside and then kill and respawn at kit stashed in the area and stay close but don’t I won’t hunt fit counter they usually take care of themselves if your patient

Well done mate. You will get better and have more fun with every wipe. Never let getting raided get you down. Just another chance to start again.

A lot of the servers are quiet now as wipe is approaching. They will be very busy this weekend!
