Crafting station killing

[NIIN]

I can see opening and unlocking to gain items or destroying all the way to grief.

but could we have the resources gained by destroying crafting stations removed? plz dont encourage complete removal/destruction of them from raiders.

+1 there shouldn't be an incentive after unlocking

Impressed people have realised this is the reason why they are broken, it has nothing to do with griefing. Been saying for ages that is why people break benches but no one listened to me.

I would partially agree. You should be able to get some resources from disassembling workstations.
I think the lock and HP should be separate though, you beat it to unlock it, then once it's unlocked and empty you absolutely should be able to tear it down for materials. Especially if it's a higher level workstation.
The reality is a scavenger would get more use out of the machine than whatever was inside it but we can't 'use' a workstation we break into, getting resources for breaking it down can at least help build your own.

Agree with that, it should be either no materials or seperated unlock/destroy hp, or even both.
At first i thought it helps to clean oasis, bc ppl leave but stations stay, but since we burn oasis on daily basis, there is no need for clean service.

Dunno.. I tried to use someone's firepit and it let me start the craft but there were no outputs. Just ate the mats.

I think it was bug once, for a week or something after one patch (when had DB issues), and then back to normal, i mean it should produce output now. I remember when i was making water in others camp fires, and then after patch i coudn't for about a week but now it's fine again, or atleast was few days ago.

Ah good to know.
Would like to see the ability to actually take the stations and still think they should be worth some resources if destroyed/disassembled after unlocking but knowing that I can use them if I need to will decrease the destruction of stations overall.

Griefers are worse than zergs. They just swing in destroy wings, small boxes, boarding devices and ammo boxes then grapple away when opposed. Not much of a game .. no strategy.. .no nothing .

Play on a private server.... Life is SOOOOO much better with ZERO ganking. Relaxing stress relief with stations never getting destroyed.

no ty ganking and fear of ganking is still fun. I'd rather have my stuff unlocked and destroyed beyong belief and fear everywhere... thats why I bought the game besides the cool walkers and theme. seriously ... if I wanted to play without pvp gankers I'd play Conan Exiles or something.

Destroying crafting stations is a legit tactic if you are at war with another clan, especially if they are high quality crafting stations. You stop that clan being able to produce higher quality items for a bit of time at least.

Plus of course like you said you get bit of resources from them.

New meta robe spider walkers, if you finde spider walker with packed boxes or stations.
Place them on your faundations, and this boxes and faundation is yours now, dont need to brake in

Used to be most things like boxes weren't locked when you get them out of a broken spider. Just by placing on ground. Not sure if it worked for crafting stations, but certainly did for boxes stored in spiders.
