They currently cost 20 explosives, 5 cloth, and 2 tech trash. The original raiding tool, C4 is a powerful explosive that you can stick to any surface, especially useful for going through doors quickly especially if you are being counter raided or raiding online to deal massive damage. While these numbers may seem ridiculous, if you have a group of 5 people all pickaxing through soft side walls and ceilings, they will make quick work of any base like annoying little termites. Sheet Metal, while being near impervious to melee from the outside, will take 1 damage every 2 pickaxe hits, as well as take damage from other tools.Īrmored walls can also be picked, albeit at a much slower rate, from the soft side with standard tools.Īll foundations will take damage as soft sides from above, and ceilings will be soft side from underneath and hard side from above. Stone walls from the outside take one damage per 8 pickaxe hits, but from the soft side takes 1.2 damage every hit (7 pickaxes for one stone wall). Spears are a great early or late game soft side raiding option as they are cheap to craft and relatively silent. The hard side takes 3 hatchet hits to do 1 point of damage. Wood walls can be beat down to 11 health with a single hatchet from the soft side, then easily finished off with anything else.

Building a base with the soft sides of walls exposed can make your upgrades practically useless. One of the most important factors in base building is ensuring that your walls are facing the right way.
