Wooden vs Marble Royal Bed

[Storm]

Hi,

I read that wooden beds give more sleep per hour than marble beds, I've been making my royal beds out of marble, should I rather be making them out of wood?

Thanks!

Meh the rest effectiveness is only 10% worse but you do get the beauty buff from marble. Make it out of wood at first them move up to swag when your base is pretty much complete imo

Thanks, my base is already up to standard, I have a few marble royal beds already and I place all marble furniture in nice big rooms. Won't the wooden bed in such a case actually be better since all the other furniture is marble?

Optimization of productivity demands the beds be wooden and that made up for with other furniture or art, but optimization of space could indicate something else. I would just go with your asthetic choice if you base is really good. 10% better sleep is actually quite a bit of time, really. I probably would go with wood, lol, but I wouldn't second guess anyone's choice to go with marble. Either is fine. What do you think?

For beds the difference is between stone and non-stone. Silver, Gold, Steel, Plasteel, and Wood have 100% rest effectiveness while Uranium and Stone have 90%. According to the wiki, Marble only has 2 more beauty base than Wooden.

But Rest effectiveness also scales with quality, up to +25% for a non-stone legendary bed while a stone legendary bed is +12%. I would say that the rest difference is worth more than the small beauty gain, especially since you can eventually make a Silver or Gold bed which offers much more beauty without sacrificing rest speed.

i mean you can just check the base stats by clicking the I icon on the preview build/structure. If your rooms are already maxed in terms of beauty and wealth you definatly can get away with the cheaper wooden beds but 10% sleep effeciancy isnt worth tearing down your old beds over, your base is prolly beyond dying because everybody is 15 minutes late waking up

Appreciate all the info guys, for me the rest will mean more than since there's most definitely more than sufficient beauty if I have statues and all kinds of marble furniture.

I constantly get attacked at night (think it's the way the games made?) so max rest really does help me a LOT.

In seriousness, I don't think there's any particular pattern to when you get raided. It's probably just more noticable because you have to get everyone up for nighttime raids.

Stone doesn't burn. Stone beds aren't as sturdy as stone walls, but maybe they are immune to fire?

It sucks to forefeit 10-15 % in rest, but at least comfort is unaffected. More importantly, if wood is scarce and stone plentifull (it will be if digging into a mountain) then stone is preferable. Steel allways seems to be in short supply, and it will catch fire.

I think gold or stone are the best options. Steel could be a good option in the early game when that rest penalty will hurt more.
