Worth buying up Hub?
Considering the Hub is virtually all ruins, is it worth buying up?

Worth in what way? What do you really want to know?

I't reasonable place to start off. There is copper and iron nodes outside the gates, a bar, shinobi tower, several building to buy, low level enemies. Not much of a challenge for higher level characters.

in the long run no. you could accomplish so much more at your own base w/ the materials you'd use restoring all those buildings, and even then you wont technically own the hub, just the buildlings in it

For anybody undecided, I heartily recommend investing in Brink

Even if you buy the whole town, you still won't be able to place buildings outside the houses, good for early game since the price is soo low but its always better to just buy a house in a town that has more than a tavern

Unless you get a mod you can never have the ownership of a town.

Well, if you need/want the space for Crafting, etc, then sure it's worth buying buildings in Towns. The Hub has more buildings available than most and there are plenty of ore nodes around.

I've been using The Hub as a base, prior to building my own. My Armorer is at around 80 skill and is slowly outfitting everyone in Samurai armor, etc (whatever is needed). But, that's really about the only Crafting skill one can do without a lot of difficulty. (Leveling up skill with animal skins/leather) Weapon crafting is coming along, but it's a bit slower. Crossbow crafting is very difficult without a true base supplying all your material needs.

The materials expended and costs to buy up everything aren't an issue if you have enough characters mining/making cash. Buying Building Materials in The Bar, the Rebel Outpost, Squin and nearby Waystations is not a problem, either.

Yeah, I've stayed in The Hub far too long. Plenty of materials stored up, decent gear, good number of experienced characters, so I can't complain. :)
