So this means i can eat 40 gears for food/sanity/heath just die and revive to get them all back.

Having the custom sound for eating gears back is really nice too.

Now all the people that wanted WX-78 to not want to eat gears anymore are thinking that.

While WX-78 players will just carry a stack after clearing ruins, either on them or in their stomach.

So what your saying is the new strat is to murder Wx after he's left the ruins? Interesting....

Yeah, he'll be a walking loot box, considering how many gears he has eaten while fighting there.

As a flavor change, could WX when getting hit use the clockwork hit sounds instead of the squishy player hit sounds?

I mean, it gets even better as Warly can make Bone Boullion out of WX's skeleton.

Win-win.

Oh no, how we are going to waste 1500100900 from ruins now? D: I will have to build 1500 ice boxes, 900 weather pains and 100....uh... something else, dunno.

[HengZi]

It's like a joke. Isn't it encouraging players to die?

When death is no longer a punishment, but a good thing, maybe you should reflect on whether this is still a survival game.

Dst life giving amulets ready make death a joke. Dying in dst was never a punishment more like a inconvenience, even then people can just use rollback which made death even more non existent
