Mr.Tarunio Posted April 22, 2022 Share Posted April 22, 2022 9 damage per 4 ticks that are very fast feels very unfair. tested it out and while trying to dry off I died before getting to 15 wet. I think the short circuit sparks need a little more delay from one another and the damage of wetness need to be set to like 2-5.

-Nick- Posted April 22, 2022 Share Posted April 22, 2022 But you tested in a controlled environment. It would be better if tested in a regular survival run. It might be too much. But i haven't interacted with it in vanilla gameplay. Reducing the damage to 5 might be good. It hasn't even been a full day yet since the changes. I think it's best to settle down for a little.

YouKnowWho Posted April 22, 2022 Share Posted April 22, 2022 When you tested it, did you set yourself all the way to 100 wetness? If they're smart, I assume most WX players will be avoiding accumulating water as much as they can. It's incredibly deadly if you’re not careful and let yourself become a walking water cooler, yes, but that's kind of the point.

Klei could add in a Wagstaff Umbrella (that things kinda his trademark) that players can opt to have crazy fast speeds and infinite night vision, OR Forgo those things for Wetness protective upgrades.

Fill-Lips Posted April 22, 2022 Share Posted April 22, 2022 Setting yourself to 100 wetness is unrealistic and a bit pointless. Only time you are going to get to 100 wetness is either through spring, or you are abusing water balloons, which case: You have the refridgerant circuit, which produces ice when you reach 100 wetness. You have at least an umbrella and appropriate hat to stave off wetness You have the eyebrella Wetness doing a lot of damage is fine since you can easily remove or prevent it.

RogerMu Posted April 22, 2022 Share Posted April 22, 2022 Definitely feels like the people saying he's ready to be released haven't really played the new patch. The wetness damage is a huge nerf, even the first autumn rain can straight up murder you. Having 8 slots now would definitely be a reasonable buff (maybe nerfing optoelectronic to 5), but at least 7 is easily deserved.

lionking102 Posted April 22, 2022 Share Posted April 22, 2022 I have to say I haven't tested it yet and if it is overdone they should definitely reduce the damage. Especially for newer players WX is otherwise not an option. 7 minutes ago, RogerMu said: maybe nerfing optoelectronic to 5 Optoelectronic is already one of the worst circuits and should not get nerfed. But also increasing the slots it not the right approach to balance the wetness I think.

Even a light autumn rain in caves can kill you if you were not full hp. I had to eat a gear to survive. The worst part though is how fast you lose charges. You go to 0 in under 30 sec i think. I dont mind the aggressive downside but at this point 7 slots to counter this seem more than fair.

Rafi. Posted April 22, 2022 Share Posted April 22, 2022 There's no reason for you to not have an umbrella before the first autumn rain if you play WX and know about such a drawback, It should stay like how it is right now I think, it might be a hard drawback for newer players, but I don't see why this would be a problem, DST is one of the few games having a variety of different characters that don't have "hard to manage" character. (And we're only talking about when it rains).

SomebodyRandom Posted April 22, 2022 Share Posted April 22, 2022 If you make an umbrella, you're not gonna even be able to reach the wetness threshold for damage during the light Autumn rain. This is a downside for the character, you should know to adapt. Not to mention if you add a football helmet to this, you're completely immune to wetness.

Considering rain isn't very common I feel like it's entirely fair to make it count when it appears considering there's no other continuous drawback he has to deal with simply put when it's not raining he has no draw back but when it is you better be prepared feels perfect.

I'm not sure of the practicality on this, since it would probably require some charges on hand/used up slots, but couldn't you equip the refrigerant circuit if you know you're about to drown? Provided you aren't already wet before then, it could save you after washing up on shore, since your wetness would instantly go down to 0 Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/139501-getting-wet-feels-very-unfair-nowfixed/#findComment-1562105 Share on other sites More sharing options...
