theldo123 Posted September 30, 2023 Share Posted September 30, 2023 Title. It's not fun, make it so it doesn't destroy anything, it just deals a bunch of damage to people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GelatinousCube Posted September 30, 2023 Share Posted September 30, 2023 Pump up the damage to players, make it rip through anything but an Umbralla real fast, hell make it so you can't just wear an Umbralla but have to actually activate the on the ground aura mechanic thingy and are limited to a small area for the minute or two the Hail lasts for. This would be interesting as you may really need or want to get somewhere else but are forced to stay in one small area for a brief time whether that area is safe or not. Just please for the love of god stop it from damaging mobs, uprooting traps and breaking backpacks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dzzydzzy Posted September 30, 2023 Share Posted September 30, 2023 Yup, it straight up killed glommer the morning after I acquired it. Big sad. I guess it makes sense that it would be this detrimental to the surrounding beings but not fun from a gameplay perspective. I feel conflicted about it.

I'd rather not go this route. 1- players who activate rifts early would not have proper protection so having umbrella is already a nice touch. I would agree that it should not destroy backpacks. traps are meh, having the need to reset them is fine. Overall though, you can just deploy an umbralla to protect mobs in your creature farms late game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You say this but I don't think it will work at all in practice in long term 10K+ day count worlds where you have mobs and mob pens in many spots in your overworld. I don't think you realize just how many Umbrallas I would personally need to place down if I want to be able to walk almost anywhere in my long term world while Hail is falling.

I'm on console so can't test it but I'm hearing various somewhat conflicting reports on it's range. I mean look if it genuinely only falls on your single active screen then may be it's not so bad and it's easy to prevent it killing mobs but I'm still dubious.

If your playing alone.. yes, if you open your world to multiple players.. no. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well yeah exactly in multiplayer it'll be a nightmare, all the more reason to remove it damaging mobs! Good point Mike hahaha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
