small quick castle, you should be able to finish most of it within the build phase


begin by placing two stone blocks on either side of tent and then spamming drawbridges to the desired height before filling in the walls. this gives your teammates a visual aid of what you are planning and doesn't block them from reaching tent. drop down to tent whenever you need materials.


next fill in doors on top, then build quarters next to right door. placing 3 bomb tiles on left side of quarters will shrink them to what is shown in the picture. break top right corner of quarters and place a drawbridge. use the remaining time in your build phase to make an archers nest


you can add some finishing touches afterwards if you feel like it

 

For the flag I personally always like to just put 2x teamdoors on each side and then surround it with 2thick stone walls and then start making a fort similar to what Jackard posted beside/connecting to it.

It all really depends on what the other builders in the server are doing and if they will get the heck out of the way though. Also it depends on how big the map is. Smaller maps you do need to condense things more.

 

Yea, sometimes your teammates will totally fuck it up despite your scaffolding. Be prepared for retarded door and ladder spamming. In that case I usually just spam Quarters for breaking after the build phase is over.

 

IIIIitts floaty! I like it.

Sometimes I like making everything elevated. Or at least bridge structure together. Speaking of bridges, I tend to reinforce them a bunch so that it can be used even when big portions get stuck retracted or an enemy holds the bridge down.

 

I'm kind of a newbie, but I enjoy builder. Are there any structures I can make that are useful but are simple enough for a newbie to understand and put together really quickly? Like something that can house an outpost of a couple of workshops/quarters.

 

Always begin by building your Quarters right-to-left.


Add three tiles of your second workshop on the left side of your Quarters.


Build your third workshop left-to-right.


Add your finishing touches.


You could also do this instead, gives your archer a little safety to fire.

PS. The top right corner of your Quarters can be removed, it will still function.

 

Dude, 5x for me... -_- <---- my face on the 3rd time

 

Very good advice Jackard. Dont think a lot of people know that trick either :)

 

I've done it accidently multiple times, but with arrow and bomb workshops. Then I, accidently again often buy 2 bombs instead of 40 arrows :(

 

By the way some of the structures posted earlier in the thread no longer function in the current release. I think we should copypaste any working structures to a new thread where the discussion is still relevant.

 

I will close this thread as it has become extremely bloated, with no way of telling which buildings are outdated (for beginners).

Please read the new Guidelines of the Discussion Forum and repost your up to date structures as their own respective threads.
Don't forget to like useful structures (or post under it that you think it should go into the Overview).
Thank you.
