House Decay Timeline Extended

What Changed

We've permanently extended the house decay timeline for all players. Your houses now have 60 days of inactivity before they begin to decay, up from the previous 30 days. This gives you twice as long to manage your property without losing it to neglect.

Patron players get even longer:

  • Backer → Novice Patrons: 90 days (up from 60)
  • Apprentice Patron and above: 120 days (up from 90)

How It Works

The decay stages remain the same — your house still progresses through six stages before collapsing — but each stage now lasts longer. The full countdown is spread across a longer window, so you have more breathing room between logins.

Technical Notes

  • This change goes into effect after the next daily restart on Aug 28th
  • All houses (except Ageless and Condemned properties) will be refreshed to the new timeline on the next boot — no action needed on your part.
  • Rentals and faction bases are unaffected; they follow their own rules.

Get out there and build something — you've got plenty of time now.
