Need help regarding building dock~
Hello there! I have made a dock for my ship at a distance base from my main base but the dock is getting damaged automatically, my guess, it's from rain and sea waves, but it's happening constantly. Now my question is, how to prevent it? Also, will the construction get totally broken into pieces if I visit this place after several days? I can give roof but that will not stop the support beams from getting damaged which are underwater, right?

Nope. If the thatch is attached to the wood it is protected. Just as it is with this fish trap.

Absolutely not! You might get past the first one if you're good and/or lucky, but not beyond that with the gear you have. It looks like you are early black forest. How did you build that dock in plains?

the strength belt. And ymir flesh for the frozen hammer. Fishing can be useful, they made it really awkward recently though.

I've been playing Plains even before I discovered Swamp, my spawn Island had very close Plains biom which I stumbled upon while scouting Black Forest, sneaked attacked a Goblin with my the then lvl 3 stone axe, did 1/8th like damage to it and in return got insta killed, hp was around 80, armor might be 12-14. Then I returned 'naked', recovered my things and never came back till I got some bronze gears and upgraded bow. Killed 2 Goblins, killed 2 deathsquitoes and then killed 1 Lox, also scouted 2 goblin camps. Sneak is my speciality. This area I am building is at 55+ hrs gameplay, check my gears of that time https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3264276753 (Lvl 4 bronze axe got used up, so kept it in chest and stone axe is for wood chopping)
Now I have iron age gears but troll armor is OP, stole the totems from goblin camps, thug life lol. They chased me but I am faster with help of 1st boss power, I make defensive structures beforehand on the way I flee. Then I pick them off while they are scattered. Haven't been able to kill the big goblins though.

I found two merchant but none of them had anything called ymir flesh.
I am preparing to kill the 3rd boss, Bonemass. Does some merchant items get unlocked after certain point of progression?

The only one you would be capable is the very easiest one (and the miniboss will be a challenge even if you were an experienced player that has gone through the biomes several times.)

To answer the other question, Ymir flesh is locked behind killing the Elder. It won't be available from Haldor until then.

I build my docks out of raised terrain mostly. I add a little to that, eg a slope and stone stairs (when you get them) to get out of the water if I screw up the jump onto a boat. I like to have minimal building stuff, a small fire to dry out and get a micro rest, a portal if its a long way from my home (often is a bit of a walk, due to coast terrain and flooding in storms etc), or fishing supplies chest and some place to stand to fish, etc. But the core of it is just terrain. I also smooth a large boat sized rectangle on both sides of the dock at the depth where I can no longer dig due to being submerged. This is just deep enough to get the materials back from a broken boat, and deep enough to float the boats for launch and landings.

Some of the things that Haldor sells are gated behind boss kills, you may need to kill some more of the Forgotten to unlock Ymir Flesh.
