How to Prevent Your Buildings From Decaying in Soulmask

Hello everyone, today we will introduce how to prevent your buildings from decaying in the game.

What should you do?

In Soulmask, you can obtain various building materials such as foundations, floors, and walls of different materials through crafting and using the construction table. Once you have these building materials, you can construct your own base.

If players do not build a bonfire near their base in Soulmask, the buildings and workstations will slowly start to decay.

How to craft a bonfire? To build a bonfire in Soulmask, you can craft it manually. First, press the “Tab” key and select the “Items” tab. Look for the bonfire in the “Manual Crafting Blueprint” section. To craft a bonfire, you will need materials such as branches, stones or flint, and logs or hardwood. Branches are a required material, while the other two materials are optional. As long as you have enough of one of these materials, you can craft a bonfire.

To activate a bonfire in Soulmask, simply add combustible materials such as branches, logs, or bark to it. By building your base within the range of the bonfire and ensuring that the bonfire is burning, your buildings will not decay. When you hover your mouse over the placed building materials, you will see the phrase “[Protected by Bonfire]”, indicating that as long as your bonfire keeps burning, those building materials will not begin to decay.

As you progress in the game, you can unlock the ability to tame NPCs known as “barbarians.” You can assign these barbarians to continuously add combustible materials to the bonfire, eliminating the need for you to personally perform this task.

PS: We recommend building the bonfire before constructing your buildings to ensure that your base is not too close to other players’ bases, making it difficult to protect the bonfire. Additionally, it’s important to cover the top of the bonfire with a roof or flooring to prevent rainwater from extinguishing it on rainy days.
