Fozzlebub Posted May 31, 2019 Share Posted May 31, 2019 I haven't played the beta but I was thinking of some of the uses and implications, these are ofc obvious but I was wondering if people have used these yet and if they found them effective Maxwell will be very good at farming Brightmare drops. Wickerbottom, Wormwood and Wortox will be really good because of books for Wicker and chopping trees and eating Monster Meat for Wormwood(souls for Wortox) for an actual net benefit. There are of course better late game options, but it'd be interesting bringing Spider eggs along or using On Tentacles for the positive benefits of their insanity auras. Any thoughts on this and other ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brightmare drops would be excellent loot for characters like Wickerbottom, Wortox, and Wormwood. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their animations are referred to as brightmare_gestalt. So presumably if more of these Enlightenment-induced creatures are added, they will all fall under the category of "Brightmare".

I just hope the drop is related to the moon and not Brightmare fuel haha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lazy deserter is a very simple way to lower awakening, along with bone helmet (and kinda nightmare amulet) helping manage it without no constant source of insanity Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WkingDisaster Posted June 1, 2019 Share Posted June 1, 2019 Green mushrooms (raw) and gloomer's goops are very good for the new island exploring, but once you move enough plantation to the mainland, you will have no desire to go there again, waiting for more updates.

Demon874 Posted June 3, 2019 Share Posted June 3, 2019 Why are you calling it Awakening instead of Enlightenment ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toros Posted June 3, 2019 Share Posted June 3, 2019 I'm really confused why you'd take the time to speculate blindly instead of actually playing the beta. You've framed your first post like you've been brainstorming strategies, but without having played there's no reason to have any confidence they work. Not trying to be mean, but this seems like a "cart before the horse" situation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't mean to sound like they worked, the fact I haven't played is why I posted them here to receive everyone's input! It's just idle speculation. I would play and see how they worked, but I broke the brackets on my CPU's heatsink when I was seeing if replacing thermal paste would fix the overheating issue that spontaneously manifested.
