Grappling hook base defense?
Hey guys. I'm trying out the new "notaming" servers. I've managed to get a pretty good location. My base is high up on a mountain, with the only access being a single ladder connected to a doorway at the top. That is, no other access without fliers or grappling hooks...

I'm looking for some tips in setting up some kind of defense that will stop people from being able to grapple up to the top and blowing in my walls.

I realize that nothing is going to completely stop them. Everything can be blown up given that they're motivated. But I'd like to prevent it as much as possible. Any ideas?

Try Spikes, everywhere on the perimeter. Anthroplueras and Plants X/Y in case they manage to get over he ridge.

The problem is: no phiomias to keep them fully loaded.

Have fun being wiped to the group of 10+ people with rocket launchers. They've been parachuting around for the last hour blowing every base up, even if it's empty.

The other problem with this is: no arthropleuras to tame.

except that automatic turrets are removed from notame/noride servers.
