This isn’t a rhetorical question or anything, I’m genuinely confused as to what the point is meant to be. Is it supposed to just be its own fully separate system from the rest of the game, just as fun stuff to do with your clan that doesnt affect the rest of the game? Or do you actually get some kinda reward out of it if you stick with it?
I’m asking this cuz I just yesterday learned that the clan bank was replaced with the treasury that you cant take money out of, which was a huge draw of making a clan back when I first played the game, and I’m just not quite clear on if clans have any use that interacts with the rest of the game, or if theyre just an entirely separate system now that exists to insist upon itself (not in a bad way or anything, I don’t at all mind if its just a “do it if you enjoy it” type thing)
I do think the concept is really really cool and I’ll definitely be doing a bunch of it in the future with my two clans (I have one on my main save for good-aligned characters and one on my newest save for evil characters), I really do just wanna know if theres some use case I’m not seeing with the clan building mechanics
I’d say its main purpose is to incentivize/promote interplayer competitiveness, since it’s a system where you build and defend forts and try to claim other people’s forts in order to gain infamy and climb the leaderboards. It has other uses such as creating a “hub” with a set spawn, shops, and a way to harvest reagents, but at the end of the day it’s to grow your infamy and level up your clan.
Clans are planned to get some more features later down the line, as outlined on the Clans trello card, so competitive clans that dominate the leaderboards will be rewarded
My farms just immediately toss their money into the clan treasury when I harvest them, so the money from clan building can seemingly only be used for more clan building? Unless I’m missing something, which I very well could be, the menu is a bit intimidating
Yeah, that definitely seems to be the main purpose, which I’m perfectly fine with. Makes me really wish I had more friends willing to play the game tbh
there were plans on the trello for upgradable structures that gave buffs to all players of the owning clan in the server but idk what happened to those
