Auryonn Posted June 9, 2019 Share Posted June 9, 2019 I’ve been playing Don’t starve Together for a while with my husband and we’re trying to find a good combination. At the moment we’re trialling Wilson and the Spider which seems to be going okay. I love the thought of Wormwood after reading about the latest Wormwood update but is it worth purchasing the character? I just feel like we’ve spent £11.99 on the game and this is basically the same price but it looks really good! Thoughts? What combination would work well?

Wormwood and Webber are a nice combination: Both do (almost) not suffer from Monster Foods, Webber grants a nice supply of Spider Glands and Silk to heal Wormwood and Wormwood can plant seeds for easy sanity and use the resulting plants as nice fillers for the Crock Pot.

Ooof Posted June 9, 2019 Share Posted June 9, 2019 I'd say he is, you'd be of great help to your team. Especially with a Wicker, Wortox or Webber. Since Wormwood can plant seeds without the need of a farm plot, it lets you save resources and allows Wicker to instantly grow them with the applied horticulture book, providing food or fillers for crock pot recipes for quite a while (but after a few days they do spoil and become rot so put them inside an icebox). Since Wortox can drop souls to heal players and Wormwood loses hp to create living logs, you can farm them by having Wortox heal you whenever you create one. Webber can plant spider nests which you can use to farm spider glands to heal yourself, monster meat which used with a filler like ice in a crock pot can create lots of meatballs or you could just eat the meat since you won't receive damage only sanity loss but that can be fixed by just planting a seed (tree seeds too) and replanting already dug up plants because when Wormwood plants anything it gives him 10 sanity (making him one of the easiest characters to handle with sanity). This vid explains him pretty well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Auryonn Posted June 9, 2019 Author Share Posted June 9, 2019 Thank you, some good information there! Definitely tempting at the moment. My issues with spools are that it’s going to take ages! May just invest the £12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeatAndRun Posted June 9, 2019 Share Posted June 9, 2019 He is not easy to handle, but considering his unique ability, he's worth £12012 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cannonball 594 Posted June 9, 2019 Share Posted June 9, 2019 yeah, he is one of the most unique characters and is actually balanced unlike some (wicker) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShadowDuelist Posted June 9, 2019 Share Posted June 9, 2019 If you enjoy the game you may enjoy any of the dlc characters, specially wormwood who changes the game so radically and has such a different playstyle. Be wary though, he may be harder to play as, than other characters at first hand, so have some patience with him and his learning curve. I wouldn't call him a challenge character, but he certainly is a bit more unforgiving in mistakes than, say wortox or wigfrid. But once you get a hang of how to overcome his health limitations (specially if you get help from a webber), he is very fun to play. If you end up getting him let us know your experience to see what ya think of the lil plantboi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeliarBAD Posted June 10, 2019 Share Posted June 10, 2019 @Auryonn ive bought DST more then 1,5 years ago and im playing it since then evry day. so the prize for the game is very small imo. with the new chars we will get new free content. you will have fun with this games for years if you like it. the content "never" runs out. for wormwood hes great and lots of fun to play. if you are new to the game you should try evry charachter and then decide which fits your playstyle. all charachters are fun to play and have different game experiences. so is it worth to buy him. if it doesnt hurt you financially then yes hes 100% worth. also you can upgrade your portal in your dst world and then you and your husband can change your charachter in your world. for example you start as wormwood and wickerbottom and later you change to wigfrid and wendy or which ever you like Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
56933043043 Posted June 10, 2019 Share Posted June 10, 2019 So, right now I consider Wormwood the hardest character to play in DST. Lack of quick and cheap healing means that trying to tank every combat leaves you very vulnerable to dying. You can use tents or the non-edible healing items but those take a while to accumulate. However, if you pair up with a Wortox you will be able to heal very easily. As a matter of fact, I recommend that if you pair up with a Wortox, you spend time fighting bees for large amounts of souls to easily regenerate. They're the easiest and most plentiful enemy to kill right now for getting souls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
