beta Great Depths Worm Feedback and Poll

[chirsg]

Cat's out of the bag. One person made a suggestion that it should drop an item that influences the direction of wormholes. I thought we had that with Winona, but turns out we didn't. We got trolled there.

Traversal in this game continues to be a problem and the boss could either fix it, or become a reason not to be in the caves.

That's why it's better instead, we push Klei into reworking telelocator focus and lazy deserter, as they two already do this work

People have been asking for these for years. It would literally take klei like 10 minutes to implement it if they so wanted, but it doesn't fit with their so called 'vision' 

I agree with you that it would work, but klei would never do it.

It should definitely drop fossil fragments

The worm has clearly been alive for a long time, it should drop fossils from the ancient enemies it has eaten. Dropping bones is cool, but there aren't many uses for 2 stacks of bones outside of Warly's soup.

Personally, I stand by my idea of only the chewing causing damage and the digestion causing 5 sanity loss per segment digested through. Then I believe it needs more interactions for consuming items. Things like Brightshade Bombs, Bee Mines, or Gunpowder blasting its insides for extra damage and stunning it. Or give it some food and make it chew for longer depending on the hunger value.

 

As for the drops, I loved the ideas for fossil fragments, but I'd like to see things from creatures it ate. Such as Shellmets, Bunny Puffs, Slurper Pelts, and perhaps a Slimy Shell. An item that acts as a plantable Slurtle Mound that grows to a full one over time. Another thought I saw was a Giant Glow Berry, like the giant farm crops. Break for some Glow Berries or wax & save. Stuff like that makes it more interesting, but not overpowered.

Yup -->

One note. It seems that some little interactions are already implemented by Klei, such as gunpowder. I don't know if this is 100% true, as I didn't tested this beta very well. I'm just communicating what others as said, however they're still not the interactions we want it (the gunpowder only damages but not stuns him). 

EDIT: I forgot completely about slurper pelts, I will add them immediately in the low chance drops! Thanks!

Tbh, is hard to be eaten so i think is fair to be highly damaged if we mess that much. Maaaybe not such huge number but keep it high

I would love a giant glowberry which can be waxed for a small light radius (also breaks by earthquakes) and a small 5% chance for that to be hammered and drop glowberry seeds
