If an FC isn't used, how long will it last?

If a Forward Camp is setup in Cyrodiil but not used; how long will it stay up?

Forward Camps erode based on the number of players respawning in them, @Gedalya.

So, it could be indefinite depending on how remotely it is placed.

Most forward camps are placed near keeps, however ... and are easy targets for opposing players after a keep battle is long over.

I'd guess an forward camp, if allowed to exist as long as it possibly can, is not repaired or anything, would last somewhere in the range of 10-15 minutes. It's siege, it has a health bar, and it will die.....eventually.

If people didn't know, you can repair a FC just like you can other siege, so a tent could, in theory, last the duration of a campaign.....if people kept it repaired up the whole time.

Well, pop across to a remote part of Cyro armed with a FC, make yourself a cup of tea, erect the tent, have a seat, start the stopwatch and let us know how you get on. Job done!

Yeah I popped one up and drank some tea. It is easily 15min or so.

So, not even enough time to finish half of a scone.
