NON WOBY related walter affinity ideas

[marshyds]

Ive suggested woby related things before, but now here's non woby affinity suggestions!

The first tiers remain the same

Lunar: - Lunar navigation -

Wagstaff has decided to indoctornate the youth into his lunar belief system using cool trinkets. 

He's given Walter a cool compass that functions ALMOST identically to wheeler's navigadget.

But, additionally, when running or riding on woby in the direction the navigadget is facing, you go 25% faster.

(Taken from my earlier post about giving waltuh the wheeler navigadget.)

Shadow: - Lively shot -

Charlie has decided to adopt Walter as her son, giving him a new funny magic trinket.

Charlie has gifted Walter a living log slingshot.

This slingshot, instead of shooting straight bullets, turns Walter's slingshot into a shotgun, making 6x 0.5 damage bullets appear in a thin cone, rewarding closer range battles.

(The reason i didint make it a frame is that the skill is optional and more frame customization is better in terms of fun.)

I like the lunar idea because I'm not a fan of how stuffed his tree is with slingshot perks. The shadow one would probably be good for the folks who are worried about Walter not having enough risk. Although your note about the customizer skill being optional is funny because it's true and yet I think right now there's so little on his tree that you can't avoid taking it if you want to spend all 15 points (6 ammo types + 2 projectile pro + 5 Woby + 1 affinity = 14).

Not sure if this is a good idea, but maybe he can have some camping stuff in his shadow perks, like an upgraded tent that replenishes health at 5× speed but drains sanity

The portable tent already heals hp fast it's sanity that takes forever in the tent.

Personally i think it would make his combat less dull while also giving slowing items a bigger purpose.

Standing far away isint very fun, so basically kiting with a shotgun could be fun.

Actually… I want to suggest MORE Woby related skills for Walter…

Klei missed an excellent opportunity here to make Woby a companion that as you played the game: Would learn new skills.

And I’m about to throw out the wildest suggestion ever here… but stick with me.

Lets pretend we removed Walters Ability to EVER Tame a Beefalo completely out of the game (give him a quote like “No Way am I befriending that thing it’ll hurt Wobys Feelings!”)

Now that Walter can NEVER tame or use beefalo, let’s make Woby actually “Fun”

How? Well, Klei can start by instead of making her run away from combat and cowering in a corner in fear, allowing us to “Train” Woby to be good at Combat.

Such as for example: Crafting something like the Targeting Dummy & actually training her to be a fighter.

This is on par with how the police in real life train dogs to become police dogs..

And it would make the whole Walter+Woby interaction that much more cute if overtime, and through cool new training tasks: Woby can become as good as, or BETTER than taming Beefalo.

I think it'd be fitting if Lunar affinity would cause Woby to grow larger during full moons and have her Big form have an extended duration, an homage to Woodie's curse.
