can we get something to help beefalos against enemies with knockback and planar?

[Alexx7]

please just even just one saddle upgrade that gives planar damage and gets rid of knockback effects for beefalo 

alternatively making it so wearing armor that gets rid of knockback stops it when you're on a beefalo would be good too

make it locked behind some random late game boss or make it need a drop from crystal bosses just please we need one

as it currently is beefalo are god awful for late game since most enemies can knock you off of beefalo and then whatever knocked you off immediately kills the beefalo because they all do high damage very fast 

alternatively you could also make it so you could ring a beefalo bell and that'd force the beefalo to follow you regardless of if they're fighting something so you could get them out of fight

just in general add a way so beefalo don't immediately die and also don't suck to use against planar enemies and enemies with knock back

Still waiting on Seasalt Licks/ Repairable Saltlicks to be added, maybe we'll get another Beefalo QoL thing at some point this year.

Spoiler

Probably not though...

I think the worst part of beefalos RN is that they hold aggro for too long, even when tamed, and wont let you ride back up. So if they knock you off them they will hold aggro to that enemy and even if they survive long enough to ride back up, your only option is to see them die.

This goes for planar enemies, and stuff so dumb as mosquitos they chase into their own death, specially now that the world gets slowly infested into powerful enemies.

they should add a silly seatbelt but it's just a rope so it swings you off and back into the seat

AFAIK the war saddle and Wigfrid's saddle both have the ability to ride your beefalo even when they are aggroed onto an enemy

[arubaro]

Wearing knock back protection items like marble armor should prevent the player from being knocked back... isnt a great solution but simply makes sense to work for walking and riding

which would be nice if it weren't for the fact you can't feed beefalo and ornery beefalo absolutely aren't gonna be obedient enough to let you ride them if you get knocked off mid battle
