They do this weird thing (happened during reworks) where characters become more complex as the development goes on. We started out with throwing torches and we're going to end with Maxwell collapsing mini blackholes. I think characters like Maxwell will get bland skill trees, much like what happened for Wolfgang. Or they will get QOL perks that do not impact much on their overall power level. Wanda will probably get a bit more, but not that much anyway: some "defensive" perks against planar insta-death, planar shadow damage and maybe some crowd control or QOL tiny things. And speaking on Wormwood, hasn't wormwood gotten already like 2 reworks, 2 or 3 versions of skill tree, etc? I mean he will never be perfect, but he got a lot more attention than anyone else. I'd review first some really bland perks of Wilson and maybe Woodie (despite having a decent skill tree, Woodie adds very little option: there is just one shapeshifting obvious path to go, making you a lot weaker than any other Woodie if you don't, which is a shame really) Also, now that Winona is great, I hope they give all their attention to Walter and Warly eventually.

He already got maaaaany buffs that he didnt needed Can you name a single buff he didn't need? As far as I can tell, with the way skill trees are going, wormwood would be one of the weakest characters in the roster. The paid character no less. His bramble husk ability was needed as the can't heal character using this ability made little sense. Or do you mean moon shrooms which are the few things setting him apart right now? Winona has tons of aoe damage right now that puts his tools to shame and she can teleport. Edit: I meant weakest if he didn't have a skill tree. 22 hours ago, arubaro said: Stop comparing characters! This dumb kind of thinking is what is making every character become wolfgang 2.0. After all the skill trees the only character balanced compared to the content will be wilson... Stop making the game properly balanced? What? It is essentially because we are not properly comparing characters that leads to the exact situation you're talking about. I see characters with redundant abilities other characters have because Klei is probably not comparing them. Just looking at what could be added to make them more interesting. It is BECAUSE character aren't setting boundaries like, how wolf DPS should be max DPS, that we get a Winona dealing 120 damage per catapult.

If your planning on stopping hordes without getting hit that's what his sleep spores are for his brightshade vines instead punish bigger enemies for successfully attacking him while also giving him breathing room. It's interesting you bring up Wanda as well as she can't heal using food or use the batbat to heal only her watches which are not only on a cooldown but take a full inventory slot per watch. As for the backstep watch have you tried using it in combat yourself? It's definitely not easy to dodge with and for most people they'll end up just getting hit more compare that to Wormwood's sleep spores or vine snare anyone can use those without a expert combat sense. This comparison doesn't even make sense because Wormwood actually has skills that directly have effects that relate to his survivability. The logic your using is like saying Wes is the best early game combat character because his speedy balloon helps with kiting due to the speed boost making you less likely to get hit even if you ignore the obvious elephant in the room it relies on the player being skilled to reach those results. -He can eat jellybeans to regain hp, he can sleep, and he can use all medicine types to regain hp Everyone else can do it too except Wanda -He can use a batbat to regain hp Batbat is weakened in new version -he even has a skill that makes him use compost wraps faster. In fact that is the biggest misleading, Wormwood's compost wrap isn't great at regaining HP, it only slowly regains 40 HP, while most other characters can easily regain more HP by eating food like pierogi,dragonpie,tall scotch egg. -If your planning on stopping hordes without getting hit that's what his sleep spores are for his brightshade vines instead punish bigger enemies for successfully attacking him while also giving him breathing room.

This boring perk needs to be replaced by something worthy of being at the end of tree's branch. If i had to figure out how to make it better it would be just him charging up an ability while in sun. Once charged he could release a burst to heal himself and allies around. Doesn't that sound more interesting and interactive?

If bees are friendly to blooming worm they should attack whoever hits him.

We started out with throwing torches and we're going to end with Maxwell collapsing mini blackholes. This is unfortunately a pretty predictable consequence of making all the gameplay balance decisions and other content additions a little bit at a time over the course of a decade. I wish they'd switch gears, and instead of trying to add everything piecemeal for the foreseeable future they work to a substantial breaking point in the plot and just, stop and start work on a DS2 (or 3?). We need a new world with some new rules, we need to shed a decade of accumulated cruft, and they really need to be able to get another $20-30 out of everybody who wants to enjoy it because I don't think their monetization model supports what the game needs: to move on.
