Loot bags, loot bags, loot bags LOOT BAGS!! Use a ladder to get down, nerd pole to get out. Oh shit drops or dig a tunnel. Oh shit drops are the most fun. 1:45 I fact checked myself. it's 22 blocks for cop spit (vertical) 11 for rage mode. Thank you all for the love. :)
This is really cool. The good thing is that it's so quick and cheap to build that even if you can't be bothered with patching up the pit, you can just move the base to a new area and start over.
easiest way would be to build little teeth that go into the walls of the ground so that the stability is saved in case the wall the is sitting on gets blown out, its still got the teeth a few blocks into the walls or floor so it doesnt collapse or go into red stability, and since its a small building the resources of just having that extra few blocks is totally worth it
This is my first time playing I'm on Xbox I finally got that base built it's a little fidgety those pillars with a controller but doable let's see if I did it right did it right on horde night thank you for the design.
@@RoseLopez-nl6ps easy fix would be to go into the wall of the pit, and dig some 10 or so bblocks and put in a chute, with a ladder to go in and out for loot, but also as an escape if you fall in, either during the upgrading/building process or during a hordenight.

That was sooo satisfying to watch! Well done. Reach out to Jawoodle and ask him to make is aesthetical. It will give him yet another excuse to avoid his stun baton series, lols. I guess collecting the bags is a little tricky as the hole gets deeper.
Pit bases using explosives have been my go to for many alpha's now. They are just so xp efficient and simple! Your particular design shows this off very well! Nice job!
Just bought 7 Days. I'm running around with a stick and a bendy stick with some string tied to it, so I can fire sticks a zombies. Its a stick-centric economy 😁 No idea what I've just watched. But I want in! 👍👍
Instead of 4 hatches ontop, you can use the iron double door and use advanced rotation… It’s cheaper too. This design is what I used to do, but without the steps in the middle, but wedge blocks so they slide and fall down the pit 🤘
I personally like having a horde that *can* threaten me, and having to hold the line, but can't argue with the results! The only important flaw is how to get the loot? A ladder shaft 6 or so blocks away, and 2 blocks off from the floor so it's not a viable exit for the zombies.
I personally don't like zombies eating through a meter of reinforced concrete, so I don't have a problem cheesing their pathfinding. Would be nice if only the special zombies could breach specific block types just to balance it out.
@@deltacx1059 yeah the 7dtd fan base picks and chooses what to support for "realism" but completely avoids the discussion that no amount of humans punching at 6 meter thick concrete walls will break them in this lifetime.
@@JohnZombi88 I can see the cops being a issue for metals and any explosive zombies being a issue for anything less than concrete/steel but literally ANYTHING can beat down the end game materials which kinda ruins it for me, why should I work to the endgame materials when a SAW maze made of cardboard will do better? They need to find creative ways to add challenges to the endgame instead of "oh these partially decayed humans can eat through 1+ meters of concrete and rebar", I'd rather only special zombies be able to damage advanced materials (like I said cops for metals because acid slowly degrades the metal and explosive zombies for blasting stone based materials) and the normal zombies have to just go world war z mode to get over walls.
@@deltacx1059 the game would be far more interesting if zombies could pile up and climb like that. Right now the best they do is jump on each other then fall off
I just made this base in the wasteland, I'm playing warrior with the most zombies you can have on the blood moon. Worked like a champ ... I extended the ladder above into a little cage on the roof so I could run up there if necessary. Also just added a door in the middle on the main level on each side, easy in and out. This was a super easy base to build, and very effective. Just be sure to craft tons of pipe bombs!
So I just got done trying this myself on a 7 Day Hoard and with the Birds, and Zombies who able to get up to me, and the bombs almost killing me even when thrown in the middle often got caught on zombies and on the pillars which exploded nearly killing me, If you were to do a 700 Day Build for a 7 Day Hoard it might be more effective than a 7 Day build, I had 3 Dire wolves and a for dogs come in, one dog even jumped up and got onto the ladder, lol that wasn't fun, the Base did for the most part survive but they did not fully path as intended even with me standing as low and as high on the scaffolding ladders to check the pathing many did go into destruction mode, thoughts on this??? (and yes I built it exactly as he/you did)
When placing small blacks it's helpful to place a temp building block next to where you want. It can be very helpful since now you don't have to line up the crosshairs onto another pixel-wide shape.
It's hilarious how much you need to exploit the janky pathing just to exist in this game considering the devs still think it's ok for zombies to eat through a meter of reinforced concrete.
@@JohnZombi88 I will give it to them that they can easily dig dirt because it makes sense but no normal zombies should be able to just eat through solid rock or any type of concrete/ endgame materials, that should be reserved for special ones like coos that could slowly degrades the block with its acid or something that explodes to quickly blow through rock and other basic stuff as well as slowly degrade endgame block over repeated explosions. Maybe do what from the depths does and check what's behind the block hit to add extra resistance. As for normal zombies give them the ability to intentionally stack into piles to get up based on how many there are.
@@nobertstanel9428 it's nuts that the game rewards SAW trap mazes and harshly punishes logical base defense, build in or on a mountain?

Question on loots bags if I’m standing on a T6 poi but the zombies I kill are outside of that radius will their loot be affected? I noticed once I got down into the pit (bedrock) it doesn’t recognise me being on a poi.
@@JustRobPlays Pipebombs dont seem to do Block damage but my gawd if they did I could use this trap. Could modify trap but won't be cheap. (Rebirth is another overhaul with tons of zombies.)
silly question... but how would you get back on top... and when you're building it in not creative mode... how the hell do you get out of the pit when u fall in?
I got the same results, with a lot less work, by turning off horde nights. If you left a load of dynamite or pipe bombs in the pit, then waited for a horde to pile in, would a lit pipe bomb set off the an explosion the same way it would if unlit pipe bombs were thrown in on top of the horde followed by a lit pipe bomb?
Perfect, thank you. I put hours into my home base, but it's definitely not capable of handling blood moon hordes for too long. I'll build your horde base close by and ride out the blood moon there. 🍻
I don't get it. The zombie pathing never works right for me. I spawned in zombies to test this and instead of jumping on the poles, they just smack them until they're gone. What am I doing wrong so consistently in this game that every horde base doesn't work for me?
Just like fishing in the way back when. So satisfying. Thanks. Had it on Nightmare speed, 64 enemies. Did it in the snow biome with my daughter at about level 70ish. I dropped some grenades once the pit was deep enough. The cobblestone poles and blocks only have a few points of damage.
Ya, this earned you at least my sub, though I suspect it has earned you a lot more! Thank you for such an excellent base concept! I hope a future video will show this in a as you said sexy endgame look. Awesome!
These bases work since Alpha 17. I'm curious about when the funpimps will reintroduce real stochastic behaviour for the zombies - at least for a certain part of them. In Alphas before 17, those bases would have come down pretty fast. "Früher war alles besser!" - Just a fun german meme fitting perfectly.
The difficulty is that if you have them attack sporadically and in somewhat random patterns, basic wall defenses work well because they won't target the most efficient target. Vice versa, if you have them attack the single most efficient point (or group of them) the player can more or less control the zombies by placing that most efficient point. An argument I see a lot is to just make the zombies go into destructive mode if they fall any distance. But then the new meta would be even lazier: build a pit with a few blocks hanging above that are supported by ground level structures. Then every horde night is just a zombie quarry digging shift. Kinda the problem in having an excessive block building system in a game like this. There won't ever be a way to fully prevent cheese that also doesn't massively punish players who want to have risky horde nights.
I made a 3x3x1 base and a 2x2x1 square on it, and finally standing on the edge of the 3x3 square where the corner of the 2x2 is also there and block up 3 blocks. I just stand on that peak and spear the zombies jumping onto the 2x2 square layer. (Just did it on day 21) The highest block was almost broken and one of the 2x2 corner broke (all of them are concrete).
Just curious could this be modified for some servers running mods like War3Zuk which has giant sized zombies? I would imagine that the center hole would have to be larger to accommodate more of those center poles so you can have your zombie entrances to your pit about 4, 5 or maybe 6 blocks tall.
So how would i build it without cheating the item cause you cant craft those pillars vanilla ive already tried mainly asking cause im curious if you can build it without going into the creative menu
The Pillar 0.0125m centered is absolutely available as a shape. In the video I show this, and I also say that there are other pieces that act the same way. 3:30
@JustRobPlays right i see that but i mean without using the creative menu you cant get it right or is there a tool that lets you change the shape of blocks that im unaware of thats craftable
As a new player this was an absolute life saver, sorta. I didn’t bring enough pipe bombs and they eventually broke enough that the whole thing collapsed and I fell right in and passed away
My roof and ladders keep falling apart idk what I’m doing wrong I built cement/ steel pillars and I even put more blocks in the pit to support it more. How screwed up does the bottom of the pit have to get before the thing collapses? It’s mostly fine till bedrock then they made a big cavern down there lol
@@JacobEdgerton-b9c Our roof collapsed after around 8-10 blood moons. But they never dug tunnels around. Make sure you're on the stairs in the middle at all times.
@@JacobEdgerton-b9c How screwed up does it have to be until it collapses? Extremely screwed up. By my guess it would have to be undermined by 20+ blocks in all directions before it collapses.
personally i like the risk of dying so i only use pre existing structures which i modify, been doing this to keep some enjoyment going as its become way too easy, great vid though i enjoyed it very much thanks
I do the same thing, I call it the "Bill's Town" method. Currently holed up in a POI called Mausoleums that has a good cobblestone wall surrounding it, and I have multiple houses nearby rigged with traps and scaffolding connecting the roofs together. Only on day 3, wish me luck for the first horde night
Pole Centered. See a fraction of a second after 2:03 . (The timestamp only works for complete seconds and won’t open precisely on the moment he highlights the name of the ‘Pole Centered’ block - unfortunately he doesn’t pause for a second, just clicks the shape he’s looking for and moves on, but you can freeze the screen at the right point).
Guys, i'm after joining a server with custom weapons/tools and map, I've tried a few and last one walked out of as twice in 4 days I lost all my map locations so naturally the map is unstable and needs sorting, does anyone know of a decent server where I can donate and buy upgrades and weapons/tools pls? good video Rob!.
I love the idea of your horde base, but when I was making mine, I was only able to dig down for 4m before I hit stone. I tried using dynamite, but that did nothing to the stone. Maybe I just need to find a location at a higher location.
That's a great build for ranged/explosive characters! Would an absolute nightmare in Afterlife, given how long it takes to generate that number of explosives...
I've never played afterlife. I could definitely see the price of explosives coming into play. In vanilla I exclusively use pipe bombs because of how cheap they are. I can throw 10 of them and replace them just as easily. Fun fact. This base was born in darkness falls using nail bombs. The benefit I've found in darkness falls is. No screamers at the end of the night.
Cops can’t spit through scaffolding so putting that on the sides would leave windows. My question is, how do you get the loot from the bottom? Would you make some kind of hole to the bottom with a broken ladder that leads to it?
You are very close to a great base. you have 3 of the basic concepts, but as you advance playing the game, a large number of the mechanic pathing bases fail. You are on the right path tho. I cruise a ton of these videos cause i like to see where the community is as a whole. Some of the ideas you are using are very solid. Keep it up!
Loot bags don't get destroyed so you don't have to worry but they have 20 mins despawn timer this will only became a problem if you made the day cycle longer than 1 hr per day.
Any base will last longer than I currently intend on playing. This game could have been something special but the creators decided hitting their heads repeatedly on concreate is the best way to come up with new ideas
TFP hasn't had to come up with new ideas for a very long time. The modders have been doing for them FOR FREE. All the devs have to do is bring in new players and offer mod support. The business model is brilliant.
keep cobblestone for the corner supports but make the pillar .125m in the center out of steel, that way you're not wasting a lot of expensive material and still getting full benefit of steel
Loot bags, loot bags, loot bags LOOT BAGS!!
Use a ladder to get down, nerd pole to get out.
Oh shit drops or dig a tunnel. Oh shit drops are the most fun.

Currently holed up in a POI called Mausoleums that has a good cobblestone wall surrounding it, and I have multiple houses nearby rigged with traps and scaffolding connecting the roofs together. Only on day 3, wish me luck for the first horde night
What are those at the 2:30 mark? I can't find them on my game
Pole Centered. See a fraction of a second after 2:03 . (The timestamp only works for complete seconds and won’t open precisely on the moment he highlights the name of the ‘Pole Centered’ block - unfortunately he doesn’t pause for a second, just clicks the shape he’s looking for and moves on, but you can freeze the screen at the right point).
this is a crazy good build, even just making the 4 corners concrete would make it even more stable
@@Shadow.Darkraven Concrete will fall faster because it's heavier. It's not the frames that hold the base up. It's the dirt under it.
That is an Express Elevator to Hell. Going....DOWN!
Great video - how much damage do the birds above, do?
Guys, i'm after joining a server with custom weapons/tools and map, I've tried a few and last one walked out of as twice in 4 days I lost all my map locations so naturally the map is unstable and needs sorting, does anyone know of a decent server where I can donate and buy upgrades and weapons/tools pls? good video Rob!.
This was so fun to watch, great video! Definitely dropping a sub 🎉
Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed it and welcome to the sht show! =)
EPIC! amazing video! superb editing! I love your content, and I'm subscribing
this is very nice now how about a meelee base? also would it work in after life? they have giant zombie!
How do you get down and back up to get your loot?
I've done a similar base but much bigger, I think that'll be much easier early on to do. Nice!
How do you go about looting the kills without breaking your leg?
@@peterblood8074 ladder, nerd pole, oh shit drops or dig a tunnel. Oh shit drops are the most fun.
@ which of those can I do without screwing up the pathing? And am I building my way down there every horde end?
Great video! Love the angle for all the explosions!
I haven't seen the game lag like that since the time I undermined someone's entire base with an auger
This looks awesome. I cant wait to try it out. Well done.
Clever design I think I'll have to give it a try.
I love the idea of your horde base, but when I was making mine, I was only able to dig down for 4m before I hit stone. I tried using dynamite, but that did nothing to the stone. Maybe I just need to find a location at a higher location.
Hey! Thanks! That's so weird. Theres definitely something wrong if you cant break the rocks.
Are you not hitting your 0.01.25 Pillars when shooting down (especially with the rocket launcher)?
This is actually super sick man. Running out of things to do on my 1 life world. I’m going to build this rn 👍
10:39 You can hear the computer crying in agony.
That's a great build for ranged/explosive characters! Would an absolute nightmare in Afterlife, given how long it takes to generate that number of explosives...
I've never played afterlife. I could definitely see the price of explosives coming into play. In vanilla I exclusively use pipe bombs because of how cheap they are. I can throw 10 of them and replace them just as easily.
Fun fact. This base was born in darkness falls using nail bombs. The benefit I've found in darkness falls is. No screamers at the end of the night.
Fun fact: if you do this close enough to a tier 6 poi you'll get tier 6 loot bags from the zombies
The reason this base has so much stability is because of the pillars in the dropper section.
Thanks for the video I'm sure alot of people will build this
Cops can’t spit through scaffolding so putting that on the sides would leave windows. My question is, how do you get the loot from the bottom? Would you make some kind of hole to the bottom with a broken ladder that leads to it?
Well, if you have parkour, just drop down and you would be able to climb your way out with just basic blocks and just pick them up after.
This is genius, I need try building this in my playthrough, does look fun and easy to make. 👍
Am curious how this base would hold up in Afterlife...
GNS is doing this base in his afterlife playthrough now, he did say he got from another creator.
What happens with zombie bears? can they even fall through that gap?
They fall through it without issue. So do wolves/dogs/direwolves
Hall of the Mountain King was an excellent choice. Nice job!
If you extended the support pillars out a bit from the hole platform and added some forcefield blocks around it the pillars would never get touched 😂
Would the base be stronger if you build it in the City on the street ?
Dropping down to collect backpacks then a day horde appears lol, always happens
Can't wait to see how the Fun Pimps is going to try nerfing holes and gravity.
This is cleverly done, I'll have to tinker with this layout and see what else can be done with it. =^.^=
That is pretty impressive, good job dude.
Are you on PC or console ? Thanks for the video.
Nice. Def building this on my next play through
Im going to build this on a mountain and make a “zomcano” haha
Great Design, wonderful video, thank you!
Would love to see Glock9 give it a try
Add a hallway and a hatch to it.. and he might.
He wouldn't use it. The floating pillars would be a no-go. But share this with cautiouspancake, he will love it!
You are very close to a great base. you have 3 of the basic concepts, but as you advance playing the game, a large number of the mechanic pathing bases fail. You are on the right path tho. I cruise a ton of these videos cause i like to see where the community is as a whole. Some of the ideas you are using are very solid. Keep it up!
Yeah, the issue is they will eventually attack the base supports rather than trying to path into the trap.
How do you avoid blowing up the loot bags?
Loot bags don't get destroyed so you don't have to worry but they have 20 mins despawn timer this will only became a problem if you made the day cycle longer than 1 hr per day.
Any base will last longer than I currently intend on playing. This game could have been something special but the creators decided hitting their heads repeatedly on concreate is the best way to come up with new ideas
TFP hasn't had to come up with new ideas for a very long time. The modders have been doing for them FOR FREE. All the devs have to do is bring in new players and offer mod support. The business model is brilliant.
Zombie: why are we still here? Just to suffer?
Its kinda crazy how it can just float.
Love it! But what are the chances of hitting 1 of those toothpick sized pillars with a rocket and it blowing up in your face?
Sick base! But... Ugh... I miss the A16.4 zombie AI.
Amazing, are spiders issue?
beautiful in it's simplicity. I also enjoyed "In The Hall of the Mountain King" as the music 🙂
That's defibrillator effective
steel would probably let the whole base stand with just one corner it looks like
keep cobblestone for the corner supports but make the pillar .125m in the center out of steel, that way you're not wasting a lot of expensive material and still getting full benefit of steel
This is a very well done video.
Thank you 🙏 ❤️
