Cheggf Posted April 10, 2021 Share Posted April 10, 2021 5 hours ago, gghhrr said: if looks at volt goat's history update in DST since early access, the most noticable update for volt goat is "running away when player approaching" where volt goat in DS doesn't have this mechanics previously, but once player start fighting with one of them, the other volt goats would just stand nearby and watch you murdering their family, if you take a look at No-eye-Deer, the entire herd would continue running away until further distance. No-eye-deer keep wandering around the spawning biome and takes time to search, and volt goat barely move their herd location in desert of nowhere. How is volt goat a complete design? Beefalo, pigs and no-eye-deer have a bit normal sense of animal mind with algorithm, but what about volt goat? Great game logic you say? Nice, we should keep this on and nothing worth to be improved! Not all animals in real life rush to protect others of their kind, you know. I'm not an animal expert so I don't know how goats would react to someone beating the crap out of them, but whether or not goats specifically would behave like that doesn't matter because these are not goats, they are volt goats. Klei could make them carnivorous hunters that cannibalize other volt goats if they wanted, because the volt goat is not a real animal. I don't know why you're so surprised that an animal which has literal lightning rods for horns and becomes empowered instead of dying (or at least being injured) when being struck by lightning isn't acting in a way which you think is realistic. 5 hours ago, gghhrr said: Then how is morning star not forgotten when we have hambat or darksword Because the morning star does 72.25 damage, the dark sword 68, and the ham bat 59.5. 5 hours ago, gghhrr said: and weather pain when we have woodie, maxwell, pigman/merm helper giants, fire or glasscutter. Chopping down trees isn't the first thing I think of when I think of weather pain. But even if we're assuming that the weather pain is a lumberjacking tool, it would still be better than fire & glass cutter (burning trees doesn't even remove them), less annoying to handle than pigs (and probably faster but I don't know since I don't recruit pigs), and not requiring you to switch characters like Woodie, Maxwell, and Wurt.

Faster than woodie and maxwell if you want to asume the cost. I admit weather pain is useful in AF, CK with pearl, toadstool, but only when in solo. I don't see any reason I need to use weather pain in those fight when I have 2 or 3 more buddies, even no woodie and maxwell among us. also weather pain is only faster than woodie or maxwell X milliseconds faster, you are understimate the player and character power.

If people dont use it is because they dont care, are noobs or whatever. Is Dark sword useless because bulk player base dont use it? Morning star is a situational weapon that isnt bad when the enemy is dry (+30 damage with a lot of durability) but is situational since it shines (no pun intended) when the enemy is wet so for killing worms or fighting bosses in spring and winter is the BEST weapon.

I don't get the idea people like to assume the others are noobs in game, especially in PVE game, really don't understand what are them racing about. I never said darksword is useless, it is so powerful and I often see tons of player(including me) using it due to its low resource needed and when hambat is not preferable. 17 minutes ago, ArubaroBeefalo said: Morning star is a situational weapon that isnt bad when the enemy is dry (+30 damage with a lot of durability) but is situational since it shines (no pun intended) when the enemy is wet so for killing worms or fighting bosses in spring and winter is the BEST weapon.

Why would I carry that thing when one darksword or hambat could just do the job? If you just say it's better because it has *more 4.25 damage* in *perfect condition met*, then how about not in perfect condition, we can't have the perfect condition 100% of the time even in cave, where the wetness goes down a little bit slower?

If Klei decide to record what weapons had been used in the accumulate time and times, I believe we can find morning star in the bottom of the list. That list would be really stupid because spear would be #1, and I bet #2 would only have a fraction of the usage of the spear. Most people who play games suck. Most people don't have the time or capacity to dedicate to games to become really good at them. That's true of all games, and especially true of this game. If you go to the subreddit, where most people are, you'll see a bunch of posts like "How do I survive winter?" "How do I get good food?" and other basic questions like that. What "most people" do is not of any concern. Who cares what "most people" do when "most people" don't know what they're doing? And even if that list of weapons used across the entire playerbase mattered for some reason, that would imply that the dark sword is bad, thulecite club doesn't exist, bat bat hasn't even been added to the game yet, and strident trident has a negative existence. Bat bat & strident trident are just as "unused" as the morning star yet you aren't complaining about them because they aren't made out of volt goats, which you are racist towards for no reason. 28 minutes ago, gghhrr said: I don't see any reason make morning star is more efficient than any weapon, consider the barely noticable damage in certain condition, low drop rate, animal that is nearly extinct, and time effort. Look at these TTKs on Toadstool (assuming constant hitting, no tree chopping, no dodging, no getting hit, no lag, etc): Invulnerable ham bat: 379 seconds 8 dark swords: 332 seconds 1 morning star: 312 seconds That's only 20 seconds saved on the dark sword, sure. But that's one morning star compared to eight dark swords. Think of the time it takes to kill ~4 volt goats vs the time it takes to kill ~27 shadows and do whatever you do to obtain 8 living logs. That is a huge time save, even ignoring the fact that the morning star is also a light source so you don't need to worry about that. Plus, the volt goat farm that you hate for no reason would get rid of the time farming volt goats entirely so the comparison would then be the time it takes to get like 4 gold vs killing ~27 shadows and obtaining 8 living logs. And all of that is ignoring the fact that the dark sword would be draining at least 111 sanity from you while the morning star would be draining 0 sanity. 37 minutes ago, gghhrr said: awww... I see..
