Also all of what I've suggested is stuff that fits Walter's lore.

There's nothing random about it.

I don't want them to do a Wurt skill tree, where they add all these random craftables, tools and weird gimmicks that make the character feel overbloated and overwhelming.

 

I'd rather them do it like a Wormwood skilltree i think?

People would because it also reduces sanity loss from hits. If it's jack of all trades you will literally no reason not to wear pinecone hat 24/7 with armour atleast until rift gear or CC crown.

Why would they use it over an eyebrella or a beefalo hat which protect better from the seasons?

When using slingshot in day to day combat i do. And if I'm going to fight a boss, I drop non-combat related stuff to make room for crafting a couple of stacks of ammo. Also with wobys inventory i always have plenty of space without a backpack.

Woby runs away when your in combat and most people don't play that way.

Yeah make it super strong. Giant slingshot could require ruins station to craft to balance its powers level. Problem solved.

There's still a limit to how strong they can make it and the ruins isn't a high enough barrier of entry. How strong are you even expecting it to be damage wise? Even then what stops people from only using woby when you need the big slingshot? Since I imagine it'll be too expensive for general use.

Big jerky takes 2 full days for only one jerky. Drying racks are expensive on rope as well. Drying is very slow with a low yield compared with other food production methods.

And kelp takes 2 minutes the crafting recipe is expensive because it's a 1 time investment to a easy sanity producer and even 2 days isn't a long wait Wurt's kelp feeder was even a hard sell before the recruitment feature was added how do you think a skill that lowers meat the time it takes to dry meat would go over? We'd be better served adding a feature to make salt dry it faster.

Then you need to think up useful alternatives drying meat faster and quicker hunts are about as useful as butterfly friend.

My ideas are still a hell of alot better than UM and any other ideas I've seen for Walter on the forums. 

You want skills that fit your playstyle of taming an ornery beefalo for Walter. Which is an absolute insult to Walters lore and design to play that way, hes the only character with a unique mount and you don't even use her??

Ill be very shocked if Klei don't buff big woby alot, giving her irreplaceable strengths that a beefalo cant match. Also tracking skills is 100% sure at this point anyway, they even have a short which showing Walter and Woby tracking pig footprints.

I'm not here to debate that but the jerky drying faster skill for Walter is quite litterally one of the skill they gave him. They simply made it a hat you can attach it to that makes it dry faster based on how fast you move while it's equipped.

If I'm being real I use Woby because I don't really focus on playing optimally most of the time it's also why I use his slingshot despite it being bad but that aside it's not that I don't want Walter to use Woby it's that I can't think up a way that makes Woby more valuable than a beefalo and I don't think it's fair to throw it on Klei's shoulders and expect them to fix this when we can't. I agree there are multiple buffs Klei could give Woby but that's competing with a super tank that shields your sanity better than his own hat as a bonus I ask you is a late game damage boost good enough to justify using Woby over a super tank that's still good at fighting?

Look I don't hate the idea of tracking but the question I'll ask again is what is he going to gain from it? If it's meat from hunts you don't need a skill for that. It feels like it's just a flavor idea which is fine I guess but I assumed Walter needed a skill tree that helped him as a character not to just add more flavor perks as it's like giving Wilson a new skill where he gains 5 sanity everytime he creates a science related recipe like sure it fits but...
