Fruition Online- Claiming
"Claiming" is the act of making it so your next target is unable to be interacted with in any way by anyone other than yourself.
Monster you're fighting and you don't want help? Claim it.
Trying to harvest raw materials out in the wild and don't want anyone else to take any from that spawn location? Claim it.
Attempting to place a house in an Open Zone and afraid someone else will place their plot where you wanted yours? Claim it.
Even Duels (see Combat) count as both players Claiming each other.
There IS a claiming cooldown, so you can't guarantee everything you do is unable to be screwed with by someone, but I don't really think it'll be that big a problem. I've played enough games that were popular and the landmass I was on crowded, and I still did fine. So I don't think a cooldown, even a relatively short one, matters all that much.
