Base building and tent question

[DiddyGee 0]

Hey guys,

so im new and thinking of building a base. Do they disappear once a server restarts?

and if i have a tent does this protect your gear or is it just for keeping dry and warm in bad weather?

thx

well i found a tent on my travels and i was able to go in it a root round all the stuff in there, so no its not safe.

am new myself so thats as much info i can give you.

you could bury it in a cache :)

If you really want to protect your loot, put it in a sea chest or dry bag -- anything you can bury -- then get a shovel and go into the woods somewhere and bury it.  It is still vulnerable if someone by chance passes over it because they'll get the "UNDERGROUND STASH" tag pop-up on their screen, but if you place it where you think little traffic will pass, then you're good.

With persistence as it is currently though, a server crash could wipe away portions of things added to the world, including buried loot, so no loot is 100% safe atm.

Is there any list of "items that can be buried" ?
