My thoughts on the badge system

1. Agility feels like it takes too long to train and feels like it should probably be faster for the time you put into it.
2. Bravery is a pain to max tanking hits on Woby just doesn't feel very natural considering her buck mechanic.
3. Support falls into the same problem as Bravery but it's expanded as while support does a pretty good job at protecting your sanity it's pointless without bravery so it's probably better to just combine these into 1 skill.
4. Fetch I haven't seen a single person who likes this skill. It's too slow, the range is too small, it fails from time to time, and Woby can't pick items from plants like saplings or berry bushes making it's use case very niche even if it weren't for the previous problems. There's also one final issue in that it seems big Woby can't fetch so this skill only really works with beefalo rider Walter. The skill just isn't helpful and feels too detached from the player.
5. Dig While I don't know how other people feel about it having tried it out myself I just can't bring myself to like it I get that she can dig rare items but it feels so useless most of the time and much like fetch completely detached from Walter while also only working with small Woby.

 

For context on my testing I've reached 100% training on

• Speed level 2
• Bravery Level 1
• Support Level 1
• Dig level 2

While I did try fetch due to the nature of the skill I never ended up reaching 100%

A summary of my thoughts are

• Agility is passable but needs to be faster in both training and end speed
• Bravery and Support work but aren't really helping Woby compete with a beefalo
• Fetch feels useless and due to it's design conflicts with big Woby
• Dig it works but it's boring and not very useful

Stupid question from someone that doesn't play Walter at all, but does the training unlock permanently when you reach the level cap or do you have to re increase and unlock it every time you play in a different server?

You have to unlock it every time also you can only use the effects of the equipped badges.

Wow, that seems like an absolute chore to constantly train Wobby every playthrough if I'm understanding correctly.

If that's the case his Woby skills need to really be adjusted more or there wouldn't be a good reason to really choose Woby over a Beefalo with a good saddle.
