mann I remember this, I always used to set up my base there

Thanks swordswind for the comment! I'll make sure to update the guild a bit.

I build my base there except that it will take you some time to traverse for other resource(climbing and jumping). Also be careful with explosion since you could be push into the void. Making things more miserable when you could not loot your dead body.

Hey Eldiin, thanks for the comment. I'll make sure to update about the ground creatures.

I actually built there before finding this. I didn't even know ground enemies would have a harder time until I realized a few of them standing on top of one of the rocks with no way to get down to my base. Picking them off was easy.

However, this, in no way shape or form, means they CANNOT get to your base. Some of them will. So just be prepared for it.

One of the other reasons I chose that place is due to the three Tennal ore spawns that happen to be on that small floating island. Because there is no random ore spawns, you can count on it growing back within several day/night cycles.

If you're wanting a big base, this Island is pretty small. You may be able to build the base of the structure small, then when placing a roof, extend the roof out past your walls, which is possible.
