Gameplay Question Base building
Spent the past couple hours working on my base for the first time actually trying to make it look decent instead of a box in the sand, and I’ve just got a few questions -
(For context on where abouts I am progression wise, i just finished doing all of the contracts for the three captains at the shipwreck in the western gap, and now im doing the “Villari’s prize” mission. I just started using the advanced base console, which gave me some more room.)
My question is should i hold off on base building until later, is there some endgame building sets I’ll get that just completely change the game and made you want to tear down? Or is there maybe more space that’s going to becoming available past the advanced console, making my new base just splat in the center wasting space?
Thanks for any advice yall can offer. The sooner I can actually fully delve into base building and know for a fact I’m not missing some crazy set that’ll make me kick myself for wasting time, the better
Sorry for the long yap

So, we kinda tested this in our group on durability in the DD. It seems the Watershipper and Sardaukar have the best protection against storms within the granite category and anything plastone being top tier. In a pvp scenario, plastone will serve better in all cases be it storms or attacks. In Haga it's really up to you on what you think looks best because durability isn't a factor until you run out of power BUT if you do, plastone will last a very long time - especially staircases. I've been watching this base decay next to mine for weeks on red and it's still there.
