They can be hurt enough to be stunned for a bit, and take extra explosive damage, but no, you can't 'kill' them. You'd best avoid them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1moregame Posted May 25, 2023 Share Posted May 25, 2023 I went to the Moon Quay for the first time and brought back a bunch of cave bananas. The queen gave me lots of blueprints, but the monkeys kept stealing my stuff. Aren’t you supposed to be granted immunity if you fed her bananas? Unrelated, but can’t klaus only spawn in the mosaic or birch nut biomes? I have scoured the land for days (after day 3 of winter) and found nothing.

Do you mean the stuff on the ground or do they still swipe items from your inventory? The former is always the case regardless of your rite of passage, the latter is probably a bug.

If you can't find it in the pig king deciduous and the mosaic then your world might have a second deciduous, go look for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had it once, that I was in cave for to long, after that I searched the 3 biomes like crazy 3 or 4 times and had no loot stash. Maybe I just didn't found it, but I think it was related the the fact, that I was in caves during the first 3 days of winter. Who knows. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pticman Posted May 27, 2023 Share Posted May 27, 2023 Just a small question > Is it always wet during winter in the caves? I went down to the caves in the middle of winter to kill toadstool with volt goat jelly, but everything was dry.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike23Ua Posted May 27, 2023 Share Posted May 27, 2023 I’m trying to figure out what is the purpose of the “Hostile Flare”? It seems like an item that I will never actually use, does this thing have any actual purpose? Or is it just for summoning hostile mobs into a survival game world that’s (mostly) peaceful otherwise? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike23Ua Posted May 28, 2023 Share Posted May 28, 2023 Ah so it’s so everyone gets an Eyebrella in the first winter instead of needing to go through winter 6 different times to get everyone one? gotcha… But that still doesn’t explain what its use is for pirate raids. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The important usage is to lure Pirate Raids or Deerclops to where you are. That's also it's only usage right now. It was added during the timeframe when people were still discussing how frequent Monkey Raids should be, and it serves as a way to force them when you want. EDIT: Forgot about Mctusk, oopsie.

But is there some other more important usage I’m not catching onto? It moves McTusks camps that are alive, it has a 50% chance to spawn a deerclops during winter (as long as there isn't another one in the world) and it has a 50% chance to spawn a pirate raid TLDR it gives a server the ability to have multiple eyebrellas per winter by trading glommer goop EDIT: Woops, forgot to read the rest of the replies lol... yeah what they all said Edited May 28, 2023 by Juanasdf 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popian Posted May 28, 2023 Share Posted May 28, 2023 The Captain's Tricorn is great for ramming stuff for resources and makes Crab King more forgiving, while Polly Roger's Hat has a greater range for passive collection, is "cheaper" to repair, and works with stacked items compared to The Lazy Forager. Pirate Banners are unusually cheap to replace for being a medium burnable if you can find a use for that, but it's primary use is likely to be for decor.

Plus it's handy if you need tons of houndius shootius. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No seriously, what is the “Actual” purpose of the hostile flare??? Something that I will never use Actual purpose These statements are meaningless in this context. We don’t know how to contextualize “I will never use [this item]”. I would never use a rudder but does that change the purpose of it? “Actually” is a pseudo-word (discourse marker) and putting it in front of other words doesn’t actually give the sentence meaning if there was none to begin with Please rephrase the question.
