@@jeronymod5285 that’s a really good spot as well, but I felt like it was in everyones top base location video. I was trying to showcase different areas to provide more variety. However, looking back at it, I feel like I should have just made the video a little longer and I included things like the Pagoda and on top of the shed. That’s definitely a great place. Thank you for calling that out.
That’s true if unprepared. You just have to Plan ahead for raids and then they can be a lot easier. Or create a smaller base and sleep there immediately after big events like taking out the wasps to trigger their event/questline. And that avoids and damage to your main base.
My top 3 base locations: - soda can next to the tree - You can build support from underneath the can so it slightly sticks through and you can easily then building within the can. The perk is that bugs cannot destroy anything - The board game castle on the table - you can add a floor if you want, but can also add ceiling to block off flying bugs. You then have a pretty huge, cool looking base and you can add floors on top. The ceiling can be destroyed by bugs tho. - milk molar bottle on upper yard - indestructible base, you can easily build it so that no parts are sticking out and you don’t suffer from any raids. I have a 3 story base inside with everything you might need. The only downside is that you have ladybirds, ox beetles and fire ants that are difficult at first, plus you need level 3 axe to get inside. But once you level everything up, it’s perfect and bugs are easy to deal with.
I totally forgot that soda can had the underneath section where the molar is. That’s a really good call. Also, the maze would be a fun spot, a little spooky at night if you don’t know the statues locations 😂, but great natural protection for sure. I don’t think I’ve ever considered/looked at the milk molar bottle. Definitely checking that out tomorrow. I really appreciate you taking the time to make such a detailed write up and sharing great spots based on your experiences. Thanks for sharing 😀
Me and my mate built it in the pagoda thing in the pound, It is great location nothing can get to if you use ziplines and you can build floors with walls as well
That’s a great place. I think the only thing that can get you there is the raids from flyers. But you would probably be well prepared by the time a raid like that happened 😂 it’s definitely one of the most scenic for sure. Also the research station is a huge plus.
what about on top of the compost? I know I had a blast building there. There are 2 green shield bugs there but you can get rid of them very easy and you can have ziplines to almost anywhere in the entire yard without making a zipline tower. To me one of the best in the game and you can do a lot since there is much space.
That was my #16 and I had it in the list, but I removed it. I removed it because I thought some might be concerned about the Beatles and the fact that they respawn. Of course late game it’s pretty easy to deal with them. I agree with the fact that’s it’s one of the base locations for ziplines for sure. Good call out.
@@ChaosBearGaming I love the compost for late game. The shield bugs actually don’t respawn, or at least they didn’t respawn when I killed them and built there. Below the bin is a bit dangerous tho. You have a wolf spider, wasp nest, and annoying fire ants lol
One area i like to build is the little toadstool grotto with the partially submerged can just outside the Undershed. Lots of resources close by, generally undisturbed aside from the occasional fire ant worker and a great staging area for the Undershed and the Javamatic.
Oh that’s a great suggestion. I will have to go Check that out. Thanks for sharing. It’s awesome seeing all these other great places that the community shares.
I definitely like the gazebo. But there is a specific building piece designed for water building that I feel like is under utilized and looks cool. Trying to build from a base down to the water causes weird issues where the piece won’t actually place in the water and it just snaps to the other structure. So that’s why I showed 15. I would say combining both 15 and gazebo would be good. Building a bridge out to the gazebo, then building a little dock and have that dock go up to the gazebo. That would be really cool. I love having research stations in bases so i definitely agree the gazebo is great. I tried to avoid using all the main “building areas” that every other top base build video used. I wanted to offer alternate ideas. But the gazebo definitely is a great place for sure. 👍
The pagoda is a great place. I only left it out because its 1 of the most commonly acknowledged great base spots, but a few others pointed that out as well. I am actually working on a 2nd best base video right now, it should be done in the next 24-48 hours and I made sure to include that one this time, because its such a great spot and loved by a lot of the community.
Yeah the wolf spider can use its jumping attack and if you are in the can or even in a cave or tunnel it will Land in that structure and be stuck in there. It’s an odd glitch. in the tunnels it can still follow you which is terrifying 😂
As someone who sucks at base building, I appreciate knowing some good spots with helpful tips sprinkled in. The infected wolf spider life is not for me.
main base is on the deck near the bushes (hedge lab). connect 1 zipline to oak tree and connect it from oak tree to every corner through the yard. the only thing that suffocates is, you will need a LOT of fiber webs. lol
I’ve heard that’s a great location and definitely can see the possibilities there. Yeah that’s a whole lot of webs lol. I always underestimate how much each zip line needs lol 😂

So, naturally people may think that means I am not open to feedbacks or a blunt person. I 100% am open to feedback 😀 But I am working on being more approachable, so feedback is always appreciated 😀
I liked building on the western garden posts next to the oak tree. Research station on ground near the entrance and building alot the tops can give you easy access to the far side of the yard. It's also very defendable been up high and doesn't require much build to get up top to begin construction
Same! I just love that it's a large enough surface, it's right by the water, and it's one of the most flat surfaces to build on in the game! I don't know why I defaulted to this location since day 1.. but for some reason I can't seem to justify building really anywhere else!
Is there a really a good reason to build a base that's overly protected like most of these? I don't seem to get any problems with random bugs attacking my base. The only time they do is if I've killed far too many of a certain type and then it does those random event type raids where a few of them attack.. but it's always super easy to defend. Doesn't seem like there's any real danger in this game as far as our bases are concerned?
Some people just like To build big bases for fun. It’s a time investment for sure, but it’s nice coming back and seeing organized storage or a well built house that protects you. Even if it’s just from the sun lol 😂 because technically storage is best placed In the middle of a base so it can be pulled from anywhere within the base. So you don’t want a massive base if that is your goal and the coziness level is also restricted to a specific radius.
Little known secret: you can build a staircase from the front deck to the top of the hedge & drop onto a HUGE maze of solid floors atop the hedge, you can find a particular room with a root sticking through that you can build off. 100% un-raidable, just a little rough to get in & out before NG+ when the Telepotty becomes available
Me and my friend had a base near location 11, it was next to the leaf you can use to get on top of the mysterious machine, and we had just got back from the anthill for bombs, and when we got back there was a wolf spider right next to our base, and it attacked us. Me being the tanky one I fought back almost killed it to, when it called in a homie to jump me. Suddenly I faced 2 wolf spiders and an orb weaver, let’s just say that day we slept near the research station (Edit) another good location is Inbetween the grill and the area where there’s a roly poly, there’s nothing to attack you accept maybe a ladybird larva or 2, and your close enough to the grill and charcoal bag that you can easily get the coaltana
Yeah I stumbled upon that same wolf spider coming back from the hedge for the first time. I got back and was thrilled that I completed some progress. However, I couldn’t sleep because I had slept to late the night before. Then I go to walk into my base and just as I am about to close the door I see the stems shaking outside my base and then got attacked from the sky. That caused me to move my base up the hill a bit 😂 I didn’t know you could find 2 wolfies in that area. That’s crazy lol. That’s a good call out about that second location.
Thank you for the video! When I started the game, I built my base on location 5. I have some conserns with that location, I could show it in my world😁 if you give me your dc, and you are also interested, Ill contract you

@@ChaosBearGaming if you have succesfuly set it up, you can send it to me here. My concerns are not mainly with the mosquitoes. Also it would be great for a base tour video, some people would appariciate seeing other player's ideas. I dont have a megabase, but I have a base with great ideas😊
@@aronhorvath7862 I have not yet. I am not really familiar with discord so it may be a little bit until I have a public one. So I can better understand the ins and outs of the program. As soon as I do though I’ll definitely let everyone know.
@@TheGamesMenUK I tried it in creative so I could count the resources needed in a fast manner, and I think to build around the oak tree with just 1 floor that was 3-4 tiles wide, it was roughly 600ish planks.
Welcome to grounded 😀 and yeah it’s hard to determine where to settle down where there is so much to do and so much to explore. Then you’re afraid you will find something better the moment you get comfortable 😂
I got a nice big base on the houses porch ! (Location 6) Big open area and when you do a raid the bugs path findings gets messed up and they take forever to get to me
There’s a big rock at the end of the stumps near the stink bugs and bombardier beetles if you build on top of it then make a spiral staircase you could zip-line to the upper yard and the tree, it can’t be attacked by ground bugs which is a plus, I’m gonna run around next time I play and try to find more good spots because I’m curious now
Yeah I think it’s a great spot too. Sounds like there is a wolf spider that patrols there as some others in the comments mentioned it. I had never experienced it because I either went to bed early or was away working on something else from the base lol. But I like that’s it’s on the pond and not much else there 😀 it makes for a great scenic area, no landscaping needing and a lot of resources you need early-mid game are nearby.
I have heard of the lily pad before but I never knew the spiders died in the water. That’s awesome. Definitely going to take a look at that. Thanks for sharing that.
Me and my buddy built inside a glass bottle. In the upper yard, North East of the map, along the rock wall, there's a blue bottle cap in the flower bed. If you go under the cap, there's a tunnel that, if you follow the cave, comes to a half buried glass bottle. If you build away from it's edges, your base is quite literally impregnable.
@ChaosBearGaming There's a pink juice carton on the rocks next to a tree. I think it's roughly 130 cm West/ North West of that carton. Sorry I can't be more specific
@ChaosBearGaming Correction. It was a pink cassette tape and a soda. NW of there. Also. We had a Ladybug spawn in the bottle... dunno if it'll be consistent 😂
I'm new to the game. But coming from other survival games i started looking for a main base area before anything else. I built my base in the hedges near the research station in the branches. Found out after about the lab there also so that worked out good
I really wanted to build on the hedge because the I loved the idea of all the different into connecting branches and knew that with some creativity it could look super cool. But I then realized that resource gathering trips took time, and time from one side of the map to the other added up quick. I do wish zip lines were faster because then I would definitely build in the hedge as well.
A few others said there can also be a patrolling wolf spider nearby if you are up too late. I didn’t know that as I tend to go to bed earlier quite often lol. I did just upload a second best base location video, that has quite a few “safer” bases compared to what’s in this video.
I have never seen those guys. That’s a good call out. But question for you, do they actually patrol down the tarp? It seems quite steep for them to walk up and down it.
@@jayeshyadav8891 thank you so much, I appreciate it. That was the goal. When I first started playing I remember looking for spots and there was only like 5-10 locations that kept being re used so I wanted to try and find some new ones. And now because of the comments and the community I know of so many more, I could easily make another video 😂
Missed the bin at the back of the upper yard with the 2 stink bugs on top. Once killed they will never spawn again if u build any thing at there spawn or close to it
My understanding is that they still respawned, but you’re saying you can block their spawns? Does that just work for them or other creatures as well? That was my 16 pick but I pulled it off cause I thought they would respawn every time lol 😂
@@ChaosBearGaming no they don't respawn. Only time they will respawn is if u go to a higher new game pluss.. I think the respawn thing is. If you build in an area where around there spawn location. Then they just no longer spawn. I did some testing with the Waft emitter. To try and cheese the bugs spawning at the oak tree next to the water and managed to make a single file line of black ox. And it worked just fine..
7:13 if you build right under this rock where the black ox beetles are if you put clay to stop them from responding that’s a good place where no enemies can get to you
Does it permanently stop them? I know for example when you block off the oak tree you still get wolf spider spawns and eventually they get out of the area and can roam again. But that does look like a really nice place to build.
@@ChaosBearGaming please do. Became my favorite spot after leaving the tree or the chest.found it by accident running from a wolf spider when I ran up the sticks just above the science station there
@@vrokar1 well thank you for sharing. I’ve learned of so many cool spots from the community that I didn’t even think about 😀 it’s always the accidental things we find in games that are the best 😂
You gotta try to make a floating base up in the air. I got one over by the tree but it’s not touching the ground in any way other then zip lines, lets you make bases that can be like planes just up there in the sky
I had no idea you could even do that. That sounds awesome. Would air raids cause them to break? Or what stops it from falling apart when something breaks?
@@ChaosBearGaming I don’t have to worry about raids I have a wafter up there that when I trigger it automatically finishes and resets the raid timer then I have 1 main zip line that connects me to every other corner
Oh no that’s sad, I feel like I’ve definitely been there before and they leave me be at times. I wonder what triggers that aggressive nature. Because it doesn’t always happen.
I am not going to say the tree because I love that thing, but I hate that nothing is more convenient than it 😂😂 number 3 the cliff is great because of the height. And the deck by the haze is also great because of how much building space you have. I am torn between those 😀
Someone else mentioned that as well. I guess I had just never seen them because I either went to bed early enough or I wasn’t near my base when it was late. Thank you for that call out.
Also, if you clear the haze, that patrolling Wolf Spider is the one that can become the Infected Wolf Spider, right? Super dangerous if you plug the haze.
I appreciate that feedback. Thank you so much. I no scripted this video and That’s always a risk you run when recording with no script, lots of filler or repeat words. I definitely have to get better at that. Thank you for taking the time to leave feedback.
So i was building my first proper base and was actually close to 14 on the rock on the water front. Before i could finish building it a wolf spider came along. Jumped in the middle of the 4 walls (hadnt put a roof on yet) it got stuck. I repeatedly stabbed it through the window and defeated it. Only 4 hours into the game so very low level. Nice win for me 😂😂
That sounds absolutely terrifying, but that’s awesome. Congrats on that big win lol. Someone else did mention that they saw one patrol there as well. So I guess I just always slept early enough or wasn’t near the base when the Wolfies were out lol 😂
@ChaosBearGaming yea it crept up on me which scared the hell out of me. And yes I was working through the night to build the base so was caught out. Had me thinking about building traps in the future though.
@@nick_coles_artI have been meaning to test some traps on the spiders. They work great on the ants, but haven’t tested out the spiders. It would be interesting to see what the result ends up being. Those jump scares are brutal lol.
@ChaosBearGaming yea they are terrifying. Pretty quiet aswell for their size. I'm only level 7 but really getting into the game now. What weapon is best for lady bugs. I managed to kill one with an insect hammer but didn't know what is best.
@@nick_coles_art the ant club is best early on. Then any sort of club like the one you get from one of the bosses is good. I don’t want to spoil nothing for you. But smashing types are best for ladybugs. If you peep the creatures it should say the type of weakness they have. Both their weapon weakness and their candy weakness. But I think the ladybug is mainly just weak to clubs.

Once you enter NG+ and bugs become much stronger, most of these bases would not survive a flying creature attack...

@@TheGamesMenUK I tried it in creative so I could count the resources needed in a fast manner, and I think to build around the oak tree with just 1 floor that was 3-4 tiles wide, it was roughly 600ish planks.
Still havent established a spot. I just started playing today. Really loving it so far tho
Welcome to grounded 😀 and yeah it’s hard to determine where to settle down where there is so much to do and so much to explore. Then you’re afraid you will find something better the moment you get comfortable 😂
i built my base at location 5 - but ON the rocks near the flag. The only downsides so far are the mosquito raids and a wandering wolfspider
The rocks just give so much great space to build with, those darn mosquitoes ruin everything 😂
I got a nice big base on the houses porch ! (Location 6) Big open area and when you do a raid the bugs path findings gets messed up and they take forever to get to me
I’ve been thinking about building there cause of all the space. That’s good to know about the raids. Thanks for calling that out.
There’s a big rock at the end of the stumps near the stink bugs and bombardier beetles if you build on top of it then make a spiral staircase you could zip-line to the upper yard and the tree, it can’t be attacked by ground bugs which is a plus, I’m gonna run around next time I play and try to find more good spots because I’m curious now
I think I know what rock you are talking about. I will have to go check out it though just to make sure. Thank you for sharing that.
12:23 this was my first ever base and it's great. Too bad I did a major reconstruction to the south before I found out about the zip lines😂
Yeah I think it’s a great spot too. Sounds like there is a wolf spider that patrols there as some others in the comments mentioned it. I had never experienced it because I either went to bed early or was away working on something else from the base lol. But I like that’s it’s on the pond and not much else there 😀 it makes for a great scenic area, no landscaping needing and a lot of resources you need early-mid game are nearby.
A Lilly pad base on the left of the carton. There is a stick that leads to a Lilly pad so if a spider is chasing then it will die in the water
I have heard of the lily pad before but I never knew the spiders died in the water. That’s awesome. Definitely going to take a look at that. Thanks for sharing that.
Me and my buddy built inside a glass bottle. In the upper yard, North East of the map, along the rock wall, there's a blue bottle cap in the flower bed. If you go under the cap, there's a tunnel that, if you follow the cave, comes to a half buried glass bottle.
If you build away from it's edges, your base is quite literally impregnable.
That sounds awesome. I feel like I know which one you’re talking about, but I’ll need to double check. Thanks for sharing that location.
@ChaosBearGaming There's a pink juice carton on the rocks next to a tree. I think it's roughly 130 cm West/ North West of that carton.
Sorry I can't be more specific
@@beircheartaghaistin2332 I am sure I can find it. I Just need to get off work so I can go exploring lol 😂
@ChaosBearGaming Correction. It was a pink cassette tape and a soda. NW of there.
Also. We had a Ladybug spawn in the bottle... dunno if it'll be consistent 😂
@@beircheartaghaistin2332 thanks for clarifying. That would be funny to see 😂
I'm new to the game. But coming from other survival games i started looking for a main base area before anything else. I built my base in the hedges near the research station in the branches. Found out after about the lab there also so that worked out good
I really wanted to build on the hedge because the I loved the idea of all the different into connecting branches and knew that with some creativity it could look super cool. But I then realized that resource gathering trips took time, and time from one side of the map to the other added up quick. I do wish zip lines were faster because then I would definitely build in the hedge as well.
@@ChaosBearGaming yeah it does take some time for sure
Number 6 is where I built a castle
That’s a good spot lol 😂
Great video man keep it up!
Thank you. I just dropped a new best base video last night as well if you’re interested 😀
Location 14 is kinda dangerous late game as there spawns O.R.C bugs after finding Dr. Tully.
A few others said there can also be a patrolling wolf spider nearby if you are up too late. I didn’t know that as I tend to go to bed earlier quite often lol. I did just upload a second best base location video, that has quite a few “safer” bases compared to what’s in this video.
For location 4, there’s at least 2 wolf spiders on the tarp soooo
I have never seen those guys. That’s a good call out. But question for you, do they actually patrol down the tarp? It seems quite steep for them to walk up and down it.
I still believe the baseball is the best early game base location
The good baseball, that is true, I’ll need to make another list and include it 😀
@@ChaosBearGaming great video btw. Many great locations that I've not seen anyone cover before
@@jayeshyadav8891 thank you so much, I appreciate it. That was the goal. When I first started playing I remember looking for spots and there was only like 5-10 locations that kept being re used so I wanted to try and find some new ones. And now because of the comments and the community I know of so many more, I could easily make another video 😂
@@ChaosBearGaming looking forward to that new video
Missed the bin at the back of the upper yard with the 2 stink bugs on top. Once killed they will never spawn again if u build any thing at there spawn or close to it
My understanding is that they still respawned, but you’re saying you can block their spawns? Does that just work for them or other creatures as well? That was my 16 pick but I pulled it off cause I thought they would respawn every time lol 😂
@@ChaosBearGaming no they don't respawn. Only time they will respawn is if u go to a higher new game pluss..
I think the respawn thing is. If you build in an area where around there spawn location. Then they just no longer spawn. I did some testing with the Waft emitter. To try and cheese the bugs spawning at the oak tree next to the water and managed to make a single file line of black ox. And it worked just fine..
@@wartimewells1592 that’s good to know, thanks for sharing your testing results with me.
7:13 if you build right under this rock where the black ox beetles are if you put clay to stop them from responding that’s a good place where no enemies can get to you
Does it permanently stop them? I know for example when you block off the oak tree you still get wolf spider spawns and eventually they get out of the area and can roam again. But that does look like a really nice place to build.
@@ChaosBearGaming I haven’t tested it myself so I don’t know for sure
That’s fair, well either way, thanks for sharing about the good spot below as well.
@@ChaosBearGaming no problem 👍
Try building off the wall of the shed. Nothing can get you there and ziplines can get ya anywhere from there
That sounds like an Interesting spot. I’ll definitely have to check that out. Thanks for sharing that.
@@ChaosBearGaming please do. Became my favorite spot after leaving the tree or the chest.found it by accident running from a wolf spider when I ran up the sticks just above the science station there
@@vrokar1 well thank you for sharing. I’ve learned of so many cool spots from the community that I didn’t even think about 😀 it’s always the accidental things we find in games that are the best 😂
You gotta try to make a floating base up in the air. I got one over by the tree but it’s not touching the ground in any way other then zip lines, lets you make bases that can be like planes just up there in the sky
I had no idea you could even do that. That sounds awesome. Would air raids cause them to break? Or what stops it from falling apart when something breaks?
@@ChaosBearGaming I don’t have to worry about raids I have a wafter up there that when I trigger it automatically finishes and resets the raid timer then I have 1 main zip line that connects me to every other corner
@@jacobwhitehead4564 that sounds awesome. I will have to attempt something like that sometime.
0:18 problem with the picnic table is bees are aggressive on the picnic table
I think just when you are near the jar. I believe near the back half they should be passive
@@ChaosBearGamingthey’re not :(
Oh no that’s sad, I feel like I’ve definitely been there before and they leave me be at times. I wonder what triggers that aggressive nature. Because it doesn’t always happen.
What’s your personal favorite on this list ?
I am not going to say the tree because I love that thing, but I hate that nothing is more convenient than it 😂😂 number 3 the cliff is great because of the height. And the deck by the haze is also great because of how much building space you have. I am torn between those 😀
for location 14 forgot about the wolf spiders will patrol through that area and come up to the juice box
Someone else mentioned that as well. I guess I had just never seen them because I either went to bed early enough or I wasn’t near my base when it was late. Thank you for that call out.
Also, if you clear the haze, that patrolling Wolf Spider is the one that can become the Infected Wolf Spider, right? Super dangerous if you plug the haze.
@@Railstar1976 I believe that is correct.
11 is the the exact spot where I have my first base
It really is a great first spot. It’s safe and fairly central.
Fantastic video dude :)
Thank you so much
Please stop saying “actually” every 3 words
I appreciate that feedback. Thank you so much. I no scripted this video and That’s always a risk you run when recording with no script, lots of filler or repeat words. I definitely have to get better at that. Thank you for taking the time to leave feedback.
So i was building my first proper base and was actually close to 14 on the rock on the water front. Before i could finish building it a wolf spider came along. Jumped in the middle of the 4 walls (hadnt put a roof on yet) it got stuck. I repeatedly stabbed it through the window and defeated it. Only 4 hours into the game so very low level. Nice win for me 😂😂
That sounds absolutely terrifying, but that’s awesome. Congrats on that big win lol. Someone else did mention that they saw one patrol there as well. So I guess I just always slept early enough or wasn’t near the base when the Wolfies were out lol 😂
@ChaosBearGaming yea it crept up on me which scared the hell out of me. And yes I was working through the night to build the base so was caught out. Had me thinking about building traps in the future though.
@@nick_coles_artI have been meaning to test some traps on the spiders. They work great on the ants, but haven’t tested out the spiders. It would be interesting to see what the result ends up being. Those jump scares are brutal lol.
@ChaosBearGaming yea they are terrifying. Pretty quiet aswell for their size. I'm only level 7 but really getting into the game now. What weapon is best for lady bugs. I managed to kill one with an insect hammer but didn't know what is best.
@@nick_coles_art the ant club is best early on. Then any sort of club like the one you get from one of the bosses is good. I don’t want to spoil nothing for you. But smashing types are best for ladybugs. If you peep the creatures it should say the type of weakness they have. Both their weapon weakness and their candy weakness. But I think the ladybug is mainly just weak to clubs.
What the name of the big axe and where is it
I don’t believe the axe itself has a unique name, it’s located in the top left corner of the map. Near the woodpile/termite colony.
On top of the shed
Good call out and thanks for sharing. That’s definitely a good place.
