Personally, I tend to capture Thrylos Crossing the most, since it’s close to the Nimbus Sea spawn point and isn’t as awkward to use as Cassia Bay’s base design.
Thoryn’s Refuge for me, but apparently that too is a popular choice.
So far, I’ve only built on Whispering Caverns and Ierochos. I had a better experience with Ierochos, but that’s probably just because I never tried to build walls.
Cassia bay is good because it has capabilities of a military fortress. Its hard to get an attack off because you can see people coming and they have to weave their ship through pillars, eliminating the element of surprise. You can then be prepared for when they arrive, making it easy to defend.
Harvest Island.
First Island I ever claimed, has such a nice atmosphere
I like harvest too, I agree
tied between silverhold and tidecliff
tidecliff, nobody tries to claim it whatsoever so i can just leave and be fine
