Willow skill tree ideas


Recommended Posts

     Most of us can agree that Willow is a rather uninteresting character as she currently is, I really don't think this is a controversial statement. Still, with the addition of skill trees, I see an opportunity to revise Willow and make her an actual interesting character! So let's get straight to the point.

 Firefighter branch:
  F1: Mobs that die due to fire near Willow will no longer have their drops turn to ash
  F2: Mobs set on fire by Willow will take more fire damage and won't spread fires (12 fire damage per second)
  F3:Willow will now gain a 15% speed boost when near a fire (doesn't stack with multiple fires)
  F4:Willow will now leave a trail of fire while walking with a speed boost of 30% or more (non-flying mobs that stand on the trail will take fire damage and eventually be ignited)
  F5:Fire staves will now use 4% durability per hit instead of 5% (fire staves now have 25 uses instead of 20)
  F6:When Willow wears scalemail, it will regenerate durability based on how many fires are around it (regens 1% every 11 seconds when near 1 fire and stacks with up to 3 fires)
  F7:When Willow hits an ignited mob, she will extend their burn duration by a little bit (for every hit, 0.2 seconds will be added to the enemy's burn timer)
  F8:When Willow hits an ignited mob, it will be slowed down by 15% for 1 second

 Bernie branch:
  B1:Bernie will regenerate more sanity while being held (regen goes from 2/min to 5/min)
   B2:BERNIE! will deal slightly more damage depending on Willow's sanity (0 bonus damage at 15% sanity and 15 bonus damage at 0% sanity for example)
  B3:Shadow creatures killed by BERNIE! will now have normal droprates
  B4:BERNIE! now deals bonus planar damage (He now deals 40 normal damage and 30 planar damage)
  B5:Bernie will now provide more insulation when held (insulation goes from 60 to 80)
  B6:BERNIE! now deals bonus damage to ignited mobs, but also extinguishes them (deals 34 bonus damage to ignited mobs)
  B7:Bernie will now transform much earlier (Increases the transformation threshold from 15% sanity to 25%)

  Lighter branch:

I accidentally submitted before finishing and there's no way to delete or edit the topic, which is pretty stupid, so I'll continue here:

Lighter branch:

The Extra-Adorable Lavae is also a potential subject for Willow's skills. After hundreds of hours in the game I think I have seen it in action only once.

that’s partly because it will brutally betray you and partly because the times you’d want it are limited, maybe winter/spring mining

L1:Food cooked with the lighter will now have more of its freshness restored
L2:Lighter now has a slightly bigger radius
L3:Willow can now right-click items in her inventory with the lighter to instantly drop and ignite them
L4:Hitting mobs with Willow's lighter will set them on fire more easily
L5:Willow's lighter can be used to instantly heat up thermal stones in her inventory at the cost of durability

Affinities
Lunar Affinity
: The Cryptic Founder will reward your curiosity by charging your lighter with lunar energy (Any mob set on fire by Willow's lighter will begin to be orbited by 3 gestalts, once the fire goes out, they attack the mob, dealing 42.5 damage each)
Shadow Affinity: The Shadow Queen will reward your loyalty by empowering your old friend (Bernie now gets a 20% damage resistance to shadow creature damage, gains some planar defense and has a chance to spawn 1-2 shadow tentacles on each attack)

Some of these are admittedly just filler, so I'd be happy to hear everyone else's ideas too!

an idea for for L3: willow can absorb fire with her lighter to extinguish it and restore lighter's durability (the durability restored will be based on fire's duration)

Ironically enough, that was actually what I originally planned on adding istead of L2, not entirely sure why I decided against it, especiaoly since it coule synergise well eith LA
