For those who want to create a new world with Warbucks, you can do it easily with the console at the main menu:

RETIRED_CHARACTERLIST = {}

Then go pick your world and he'll be there for you.

Thank you, hope devs keep this.

WX-78 now has a polar opposite in Wormwood. 

[Mr. Matt 614]

Guys this is only wormwood at 0.0001% of his power.

 

This is him at 100%:

So wilba can turn into a werepig now, that's interesting but she only lose his ability to use tools and clothing and gains a lot of buffs.

i think wilba in werepig form have to be more wildness and just like the pigs she should look for a lot of food in this form and maybe during this form she can eat pig skin?

and Thanks for the update Klei Team! 

she does actually needs to look for food bc the hunger drain is increased when in werepig form. She also regenrate health during werepig form and when not starving, so there is incetive to eat even tho the hunger drops rapidly

Boy, I hope so. I'm already getting withdrawal symptoms.

that's exactly what they said they'd do though. He'll come back when he's reworked

"We weren't very happy with how Warbucks was working out. While trying to find ways to make him work, we decided that he just wasn't as interesting as we would like, and so we've made the decision to start from scratch"

[RonEmpire 744]

Dang. I was really attached to Warbucks.      Really bummed about his removal.   RIP.

 

[FireKestrel 284]

Noo! Warbucks was my second favourite Don't Starve character! I hope he gets reworked and added back in.

[Roosev 1093]

I ACTUALLY LIKED WARBUCKS

 that didn't take very long now did it?

[SandvichSpy 399]

I feel like Wormwood shouldn't lose sanity from Treeguards and other plant related hostile mobs tbh.

• All of Hamlet's plants (Snaptooths, Elder Mandrakes, Hanging Vines) are neutral towards him. 

I'm not quite sure about it.

[Jason 8287]

Snaptooths are friendly..sort of like how bunny men are friendly.

[Zeklo 20639]

Awww raw meat still gives a sanity penalty to WereWilba. Oh well.

[KCDA 676]

Me reading about Wormwood.

Everything causes sanity loss. "Well that's not too bad." EVERYTHING CAUSES SANITY LOSS.

"Oh... A Rook ran into a Tree and chopped it? Rip my sanity."

Foods can't heal him. "Wait that's like 80% of healing options... And like 110% of the good healing options."

Poop can now restore HP. "Oh that's neat." HEALS 2 HP... "Klei please... Can Rot at least heal him? No? Thanks..."

Compost Wrap, is a new healing item that can heal Wormwood. "Oh nice, well it's expensive, how much HP does it give?" HEALS 20 HP...

"Wait 20? The 5 Poop itself is 10 HP... Oh it also has a long animation? Thanks Klei... Another Bucket-o-Poop type item, where its never worth crafting."

Notices the Bucket Of Poop can be healed with, for a max of... 2 HP? "Wait... You can't even use a Bucket-o-Poop multiple times to heal..."

Seeds can be planted into crops. "Nice, +10 Sanity."

CAN RIP LIVING LOGS OFF SELF TO CREATE DARK SWORDS. "Really nice actually, gonna look forward to that in the Ruins."

 

 

Recommended changes:

1. Introduce +50% modifier for all healing items, making them more efficient. Spider Glands go from 8 HP, to 12 HP. Healing Salves from 20 HP to 30 HP. Honey Poultice goes from 30 to 45 HP. Any character cut off from healing foods is already a pain in the rear to heal, so since it's his ONLY method of healing, a buff would be nice.

2. Wormwood can heal with Rot. It's a fertilizer too, at least give him 1 HP per, so he can chug a stack of Lightbulbs for 40 HP like the rest of us. (Preferably 2 HP)

3. Buff Poop to 4 HP. The current 2 HP is such a small number, that it's just silly. It's a hard sell to go off the beat and path to grab 2 HP heals (from Beefalo and the like.) Going slightly off the beat and path to slap a Butterfly for 8 HP? Now that made sense. Buffing Poop to 4 HP (or more) COULD make it a Butterfly replacement in the minds of most players. At most, I'd put it at 5 HP.

4. Splumonkey/Prime Ape, poop tosses actually heal Wormwood. Let's not have a repeat of Wilbur people, Prime Apes are nice, but Splumonkies exist! Perks that work on Prime Apes should work on Splumonkies as well. (Tbh this point is less serious, I mostly want a Wilbur patch for friendly/helpful Splumonkies.) At very least, lets get rid of the Sanity drain on this attack, since Wormwood actually enjoys the stuff.

 

Great physical design and personality, adorable. Easily a new favorite character Klei, good job. 6.5/10

I like the new style, but I honestly think the old one was better. Still a fine update, though!

(But I can't get over the font, I really don't like it  )

It'd be nice to have a toggle for it at least. Like Wigfrid's Umlauts. I like it currently, but I could see myself getting easily annoyed by it.

Same! But I think default Wormwood head kill all. Tree horns looks amazing and small twig tail
