Base Reconstruction Tool: missing pieces and the Journey step
Quick answer
Funcom's September 24 support list still advises against relocating an existing base while it investigates missing or misplaced pieces. Hotfixes 1.5.3.3–1.5.3.4 fix specific positioning, origin-marker and Journey problems but do not promise to restore pieces already lost; a small new base remains Funcom's alternative for the Journey step.

Record your platform, mode and game version if pieces are already missing.

October 19 reconstruction and landclaim changes
Patch 1.5.15.0 reports fixes for crashes when placing a large reconstructed base, large backups missing from the tool, and a previously affected backup failing to place when snapped to its origin. It also makes Advanced Sub-fiefs visible in the hologram and warns how many pieces would lie outside a proposed Sub-fief landclaim.
The October 12 support page still warns about missing or misplaced pieces and advises avoiding relocation. The newer patch identifies specific repairs, without saying that every relocation fault is closed or that lost pieces will be restored. Preserve an affected save and record the installed version before considering a retry.
Update the client before retrying an affected Journey step. The developer identifies incorrect reconstruction-piece positions and failure of the placed-base Journey step as fixed. It supplies no general recovery procedure for already missing pieces.
The September 24 notes report a fix for a backed-up base's origin marker sometimes being offset after a server restart. This is a narrower marker fix. It does not clear Funcom's ongoing warning about missing or misplaced pieces when relocating an existing base.
Funcom's September 24 support list still recommends avoiding base relocation while it investigates missing or misplaced pieces. Hotfix 1.5.3.3 confirms specific positioning and Journey fixes, but the live warning remains. Neither source establishes a reliable restoration procedure for pieces already lost. Kingy has not reproduced the issue.
Funcom’s alternative is to build a small new base. A completion walkthrough, required parts and Xbox controls have not been verified here; the advice does not promise recovery of an existing base.
