and when i go back.. wanda can do it too :D and more wanda only do the trip one time...

Wanda's teleport is on a cooldown which means actively feeding resources to and from the chest is still better in a lot of cases.

atm?

At the moment

When solo it's a free chest and as a group it's a transportation tool your group uses to quickly transfer things to base for example you can take everything from the ruins in one trip while having as many resources as you need since it's a 2 way chest it's a very powerful tool.

a powerful tool that is not tied to maxwell anyone can use it, and any one chan change to maxwell then dich him, in this reguard would be best for me losing the chest placing it in another caracter then asking something new just for max if you think about this way

6-spot is the line i draw, because i put maxwell here for general purporse farming, wifrid for figthing and wormwood for plant farming
7 wortox( could put him at 6 too because of his tp)

the cooldown is the time would you take to traverse the caves, if not attacked by depths worms, so i think is worth it, and as i said this chest could be for any survivor, i would do it in my worlds and change them and go back to play maxwell

Other characters can't use the tophat meaning that without Maxwell all you got is a slightly bigger chest that connects to shadow chester if you have him.

but tell me would it be diferent from being a root chest for example? i would get wormwood place and change caracters, would not make any diference....

This would make a difference because there is no root chest in DST, so compared to pre-rework state and/or without Maxwell joining server at some point - yes, it'a a different experience. Refreshing ©.

Also root trunk is not portable, and magician hat is.

feel your pain i am PT BR, was on the phone just untill now jesus it tries to fix in PT not EN

Thanks for understanding, and sorry for being near illiterate in some parts. I'm trying my best with rereading and editing (however, every time I write "pre-rework" it becomes either "pretty", or "pregnancy")

hits harder than Wigfrid and has no overlap with Wormwood.

Wortox is average at best in my opinion I don't really see him as a strong character even with his teleporting.

Nope I'm saying most people are gonna want ice chester who is superior over the ability to mess with one player.

day one refrigirating power, the most powerful foods of the game marging the gamebreaking point, good harvester because of spices, tank more because of spices makes all caracter viable by himself

once per day pratically when she can do 4-5 and more he needs her to setup

i still think face tank wig hits harder

20 minutes ago, edulopes said:

Magic box goes smash (©) near rook rooms in the ruins. Also even with magic boxes all over the world it's still very useful before one gets to that point, i.e. for early- to mid-game. Earlier availability matters a lot even if function is the same.

Magician's top hat, magician's box and shadow chester are more like windows to shadow storage rather than normal containers. So yes, by upgrading chester to shadow version solo Maxwell with magician's top hat looses inventory slots. However, multiplayer benefits from this, since if Maxwell left something valuable in shadow dimension, non-Maxwells can retrieve it with shadow chester. Shadow chester being "window" rather than chest is also why one can't put eyebone or celestial orb in him anymore

Warly's chef pouch is weaker than ice box, has 6 slots and takes body slot. It's sidegrade to backpack, not upgrade/sidegrade to ice box

3 minutes ago, edulopes said:

I mean it's very minor refrigeration and gives you less slots

game breaking is debatable but it's where he's meant to excel

doesn't come close to actual harvester characters however

I mean you could use sanity food, the bone helm, or lunar areas where sanity doesn't exist as well to match her.

in those cases even wanda doing TP is an BAD idea

better play wicker no? since changing caracters is basically free

well bone helm is not an average DST player find, and lunar island is an mechanic

I mean what's stopping Maxwell from doing this yea he'll be a bit slower but so what?

10 minutes ago, edulopes said:

i still think face tank wig hits harder

Face tank Wigfrid hitting harder than face tank Maxwell seems mathematically impossible to me. 

 

then what is stopping other caracter from beig as good as wanda or wolfgang they kill bosses the same as them but slower...

why specifically?

Lunar is a mechanic one that can be exploited and it's not like people can't make sanity food or fight off shadows.

Nothing.

Just now, Mysterious box said:

wicker works the same for less sanity food usage, and can do serval times a day some casts that make her gameplay easier for the mere downside of not being able to eat stale food that is more easy to forgo than maxwell's 75 HP

deppends on the size of farm, if you are using wicker is normally go big or go home

The difference is not too little. Lucky grave amulet gives +20% damage and Magic hat gives +40% so a total of 60% extra damage for clones. Then Ruins rush or shadow manipulator will give your clones another 60%. And killing fuelweaver will only give 40% more damage, for a total difference of either 120% or 160% extra damage for clones. 

Thurible is relevant even if you hate beefalos, because it's still 20% extra clone damage every time you aren't attacking.

You can swap amulet with log suit, footballhat with magictophat, hambat with thulecite club, and dark sword with thurible - right in the middle of battle. kinda like you already do with walking cane.

Also has the downside of spawning additional nightmare creatures from reading too much while Maxwell has access to all her books, stronger combat based followers, unique gatherer based followers, unique storage system, and unique cc abilities but somehow you keep acting like he's lacking.

Wait, but doesn't it prove my point? That Maxwell has an advantage here.

Is Maxwell actually slower with beefalo though when it comes to transporting heavy objects? When it comes to bosses, it depends on fight, and faster rowing... Is it even relevant considering a lot of cases when player has to stop boat and/or change direction (at least with driftwood oar or malbatross bill?

I was mostly talking about the bosses but your definitely not wrong on either account.

asking for an less stressful gameplay and more freely, being locked in place for 2 seconds is terrible, if was 1 second same as wicker books...

Seems like a fair enough risk reward to me personally.

at least for me that isnt any big problem but that's an personal opnion, for me is fine and good to row that fast

To be fair consistent kill often is more sensitive to skill and knowledge of biome generation than character choice. Only seeded speedruns (and unseeded as well, apparently, because they boil down to state identical to seeded but with more regens if the world) are sensitive to character choice in most cases. Dragonfly is not the fight where extra damage makes the difference, at least not in speedrun

and the reward is you are not as good as other options horray

and currently DF is sadly blue screen for maxwell so is hard do compare...
