WenericMember Posted November 29, 2024 Share Posted November 29, 2024 Originally, Wendy being able to decorate graves had some excellent synergy with the Dark Petal lines, allowing dark petal production to produce the required materials for crafts. However, with the (albeit necessary) loss of the dark petals line, Decorated graves now only produce dark petals, which are only necessary for nightmare fuel, reducing the value of decorated graves. Additionally, with how difficult finding skeletons in the world are without dying, having a skill entirely dedicated to creating new gravestones is pretty niche, as a more than reasonable number already naturally spawn in graveyards and forests, making Graves by Wendy, in a vacuum, a skill almost exclusively beneficial to megabasers. I think the best solution to this issue would be to merge the gravestone relocation & Gravestones by Wendy skills, then adding a new tier three skill. In the dev stream, they noted how Bigspooks were intended to be used as to create a "safe space" for Wendy. This sacred ground I dea is a cool and unique concept, but could use a little more depth. The new tier three gravestone skill could allow decorated graves to provide one of a variety of passive benefits to the surrounding area, such as wildfire protection (everyone hates wildfires, and more ways to counter it would be appreciated), insanity prevention (preventing being targeted by shadow creatures within an area, like Woodie's shadow alignment), protection from lunar Hail/acid rain, etc. Obviously some of these effects might be too powerful, but you get the point. These would be powerful effects, but be balanced by the hard limitation of decorated graves and the limited area these benefits are applied to.

WenericMember Posted November 29, 2024 Author Share Posted November 29, 2024 As an extension to this, I really hope they add more to the graveyard concept. Wendy's shown an interest in art, with things like the den decoration kit, and pottery wheel, so linking these buffs to additional decorations to add to a custom graveyard would fit well.

cyjs Posted November 29, 2024 Share Posted November 29, 2024 Very cool! If true this would be a great skill and a real finishing touch to the Tombstone branch!
