If you love him so much why does he need a skilltree.

As a walter main, i do agree with this sentiment. Hes a very underrated character. Extra inventory and a cheap beefalo are both S-tier perks, just the common forum user is too conditioned to think that beefalo taming isnt tedious as f... Which it 100% is.

But i will 100% take advantage of the fact that most people mistakenly think hes bad and not disagree with people too much about buffing him to OP levels like woodie got for his skilltree.

Come on klei everyone thinks Walter is terrible!

Give me all my overpowered skilltree ideas, ghillie suit, giant slingshot for woby, different ancient science station slingshot crafts that either double attack speed of regular slingshot or make it do double damage!

Because, while he does have a pretty interesting set of perks and unique sanity mechanics, as it is right now, most of his kit is simply not worth interacting with when compared to the non-character specific alternatives. This was always an issue for the slingshot and later on for Woby too(although I must notice, before YotB update Woby had a good set of advantages over using a beefalo), but it is made especially apparent now, when comparing Walter's kit to all other characters who already got their skill trees.

I mean, really, slingshot, one of the 2 main perks of Walter, doesn't have much of a reason being this underpowered as a ranged weapon, when Willow, Winona, heck, even Maxwell technically, can all deal damage at range now, both cheaper and better(and usually safer too). Yes, this is one of those hills I will die on. Justice for Walter(&Woby).

The post is about a rework though, not a skill tree
Walter's base kit is honestly great and I've grown to love it more, its a very solid foundation and I don't think that it needs any changes
And I mean, what character without a skill tree isn't getting powercrept? Even a character like Wendy is really starting to pale in comparison.

Yeah, that I won't argue with. I was specifically replying to the other person asking why he needs a skilltree.

Walter? What is that? A character with downsides in 2024? Now for real, Walter main here, I don't think Walter need a rework at all, he is more than fine, of course some of his perks are not the best like Big Woby being an easy but bad beefalo, and the slingshot as a main weapon for fights is lacking. He eventually will have a skill tree, so it will be changed at some point. Will be the skill tree of Walter focused on the slingshot? Sadly yes, let's be honest most people see Walter as the range character, like dude, he is a scout boy with no fear, tools for camping, tells you stories that restore sanity, an immortal chester-critter-beefalo, and a slingshot as a tool. All my points will end on upgrading my beloved Woby.

Depends. Beefalo taming can be tedious on day 200 if it’s something you dedicate the whole summer to and put everything else on hold. But early game beefalo taming can be done while doing the usual early game exploration and fighting. If you make enough steamed twigs and salt licks to deal with non-riding time.

This is so real. Downsides are part of character identity and they are being constantly eroded. Think Woodie with lunar affinity. Like, what's left there?

Some players might not like facing a downside but it very literally builds character.
