Catteflyterpill Posted July 23, 2019 Share Posted July 23, 2019 Looking at the Warly streams it seems that the Insulated Pack and Chef Pouch work similarly, except that the Chef Pouch is much cheaper. I think that maybe the Insulated Pack should be buffed, to be a step up from the Chef Pouch and make killing Bearger more viable as right now as Bearger just holds the spot for best lumberjack. Just a thought for the devs, and maybe the Pouch doesn't work as well as the Pack. Anyways, can't wait until the 25th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Viktor234 Posted July 23, 2019 Share Posted July 23, 2019 Either the pouch will have durability, or won't reduce spoilage by 50% if dropped or used by anyone else besides Warly, or the Insulated Sack will get a buff soon. I'd like it if the pouch would be useable by anyone, that would give Warly an item which he can share with other players & which can act like an early game Ice Box.

GuyNamedChris Posted July 23, 2019 Share Posted July 23, 2019 From what I saw from the Warly streamers on Twitch, the new Chef Pouch and the current Insulated Pack are identical in gameplay: Chef Pouch: - 6 slot inventory (down from 8) - Chills food - Can hold any kind of item, even non-foods - Doesn't freeze Thermal Stones or chill Ice- Crafted with Grass, Twigs, and NitreInsulated Pack: - 8 slot inventory (up from 6) - Chills food - Can hold any kind of item, even non-foods - Doesn't freeze Thermal Stones or chill Ice- Crafted with Gears, Bearger Pelt, and Doodads My first thought is that the Insulated Pack needs a dire buff, cause now it's just an overpriced Chef's Pouch. The Pouch could use a slight nerf as well given its simple crafting recipe: - The Insulated Pack, I think, should maybe have a 10 slot inventory, and the ability to freeze Thermal Stones and Ice to be worth the boss item to craft. - The Chef Pouch, I think, should stay as is but only allow items with a spoilage meter to be stored inside, since it's so easy to craft and everyone will be running around with portable Ice Boxes if every survivor can carry them.

I think 10 would be an even better number, so that it's slightly better than just having a Backpack inventory due to it's higher cost, and the fact that it still can burn to ashes if lit on fire.

Just don't make it outclass the Krampus sack slotwise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ProfessorAlpaca Posted July 23, 2019 Share Posted July 23, 2019 I see the Krampus sack as a luxury item you get as a long term goal, while the insulated pack should still be a very powerful item that you get as a reward for both surviving a year and defeating the Bearger. That being said I'd say 8 or 10 slots, chilling ice and thermal stones, and not being flammable would make it go from a completely disregarded and forgotten item to one that is highly sought after. Its a boss item for crying out loud, every other seasonal giant has an item associated with it that virtually everyone uses in regular play.

Alexias Posted July 24, 2019 Share Posted July 24, 2019 Make the chef pouch can be only used by warly so it doesn’t outshadow insulated pack, Warly is suppose to provide food for his teammate not free backpacks. And why they nerfed chef pouch :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canis Posted July 24, 2019 Share Posted July 24, 2019 Honestly, I'd take a buff to the insulated pack even if its JUST to add 4 more slots. That'd still be over the backpack space by 2 slots, which would make it, in every sense of the word, a direct upgrade to the backpack, which is what it should be.

GuyNamedChris Posted July 24, 2019 Share Posted July 24, 2019 Guys! The Insulated Pack actually did get buffed in the Warly update that some streamers have access to. It's not that huge, but the Insulated Pack got buffed to have 2 more slots than normal. It's the same size as backpacks now. I'd still like it to have a bit more and the Chef Pouch a bit less though.

So Klei planned ahead for this clash, but personally I don't feel like it's enough of a change to separate the Chef's Pouch and Insulated Pack's usability.

Klei when something is crafted with a boss drop or a rare item it should be a direct upgrade to its more common counter part. Eyebrella is a direct upgrade to umnrellas and rain hats, yet you didin't think "Maybe it should have a downside". Then why did you think to give isulated pack a downside. Don't be afraid to add direct upgrades to the game. When the player reaches endgame they should be able to switch their old equipement for a better one.

Ezaroth Posted July 24, 2019 Share Posted July 24, 2019 I think Insulated Pack should freeze thermal instead of having more slots (maybe they did it already? Anybody checked?). Seasonal Boss should mitigate season problems, giving it any more than 8 slots would make Krampus Sack lose it's uniqueness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can only benefit from it during the second summer since Bearger spawns on the second autumn. By that time there's no point to go exploring far from base, or you could've made tons of Endothermic Firepits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Catteflyterpill Posted July 24, 2019 Author Share Posted July 24, 2019 Maybe the Insulated Pack could work as a non-backpack item. More like a bundle, so you can open it for like 4-6 items from your inventory and still have your backpack or armor. Make it worth it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
