any reason to not block off tomb?

[Bazongo]

i can just put a single block and make it completely inacessible. any reason to do that or not do that other than being a jerk>?

Better traps. Unlike the Gen Mat there are 0 safe guards, allowing you to make really sadistic traps leading up to the tomb.

blocking it and calling it a day is a ♥♥♥♥ move, but you might get some extra gen mat for killing raiders; and them getting the tombs is no skin off your back since it costs your nothing.

Tombs don't give you any more or less resources by themselves, so blocking them really just makes you a jerk. Raiders get more resources for destroying them, but you can more effectively trap them since the gen mat collector doesn't need to reach them. My favorite traps in this game involve blind falls into tomb rooms lol.

As others said, the Tomb is there to create branch-points in the Build and give you more chances to kill Raiders. Traps and Guards placed away from where HRV (Harvey) walks count less towards the "Danger" rating of an outpost also.

You don't lose anything if someone destroys your Tomb either. (Same with Genmat, unless in Overdrive mode).

Accolades are worth much more than kills. You are only hurting yourself by being a jerk.

[Sairek Ceareste]

Yeah, if you intentionally block off tombs, the raider has a reason not to give you accolaids.

Accolaids are worth quite a bit more than kills, especially if a raider gives you two of them.

Use them to your advantage. Don't make them free and create a branching path to your build. It's fun, probably will get the raider killed, and they'll be more likely to give you accolaids for a fun, interesting, rewarding build. Win-win for everyone.

is this true or no? I found as soon as i went over 3000 build it always went to brutal.

The glowing / trapped *skeletons* around your outpost maps , they also make a sound the closer you get so you can find them by hearing.

You get free resources when you destroy them while raiding + the builder aint losing anything.

Why waste resources on something like that when you can instead use them for a deadlier base?

If they didnt change it then yes , used to be like that in the beta. Usually the amount of traps did matter the most on / near Harveys route / path.

Thats the thing you dont need to , you can leave them open all across the map / ignore them as a builder and its still a win-win for everybody (atleast the raiders that go looking for them)

Otherwise its just 2. objectives you can trap / build rooms around for some possible easy kills.

[FlowArt]

people have said that they block builder who purposely dont allow access to tombs. it does nothing but hurt the raider for no reason

Getting blocked means your outposts wont show up for them. potentially leading to less raids for you overall

You are being a jerk and people of qware of it. Kiss acolades goodbye.

Your missing the chance to make unrestricted traps. My tomb traps are really good
