Tumalu Posted December 7, 2018 Share Posted December 7, 2018 It's my hope that the QoL update includes Willow's DST buffs (bernie, lighter cooking, and maybe replacing insanity fire with insanity chills if we're lucky) but really, there's one feature I've always wanted on her. Willow can start fires on the ground when she's insane. I think this should be an at-will ability on Willow's Lighter so that her playstyle can be easily filled with much more FIRE. Right Click anywhere on the ground with an equipped Lighter to "Burn" at the cost of a few sanity points, spawning her insanity fire. Like her usual willow fires, these grant very little sanity or heat, but could provide lots of light and potential burn damage on enemies. My main issue with Willow is that she is currently not particularly skilled at using fire creatively unless you create an actual "fire farm", which requires an ice flingomatic. Being able to spawn fires at will (without immense setup littering the ground with many single pieces of twig, etc) would make it much easier to weaponize it for burn damage, or to work through the night without placing campfires everywhere, providing more incentive to play as Willow and making her much more Firestarter-y. I envision a future where I... Explore ruins spawning a fire on the ground in each new room for light, and pull any enemies through it for fire damage Work at night by spawning lighter fires instead of campfires Kill rabid beetle swarms with lighter fires instead of carrying bug spray Helping out with those hordes of flytraps... fire damage is AoE damage! but if not I'd be somewhat satisfied with DST willow slapped onto single player with fire immunity. Currently Willow cannot even stand in her base if she's insane because there is no ice flingo in Hamlet to stop from burning it down.

GenomeSquirrel Posted December 7, 2018 Share Posted December 7, 2018 You can use a backpack to aggressively use fire, igniting 8 separated ropes is enough to kill a guard, they won’t fight back, their armor and most importantly halberd will be at 100%. Poop and boards are good alternatives. I don’t know if 8 is the optimal number though. I wanted to avoid console commands, so experimentation has been slow. Separated peices are also great at gaining sanity.
