Thanks for the update. May I ask when the beta test is expected to end and when the skill tree will be updated to the official server?

[Lee lol]

Wendy's skill tree won't change again, right?

[aidancode]

All good changes, but the flutter strip nerf is a little sad to me because it's no longer worthwhile at all to give to friends. I wish they nerfed the Walter-specific 50% buff instead by a bit but it's alright. Most of these changes are really fantastic and make Woby's foraging not a dead skill.

[ColinTheNPC]

Hell yeah Walter hotfix!

[Chewabacca]

Kind of surprised to see the egg production nerfed instead of the part where Walter gets nearly 40 more Woby hunger points per monster meat by converting them to treats. Slingshot icons are nice though. Hopefully this will move to live soon enough.

Personally I prefer it this way since it gives Walter a reason to use honey poultice

Kinda feel like it'd be a hard sell at 1 to 1 per treat especially with all the competition the tree already has

Oh yeah.... it's all coming together

I did experience some crashing before this update came out. Fairly certain I know how to replicate it so I'll be experimenting with it tomorrow to see if it is still in the game

Hard to tell atp. It really needs changes so I hope it does.

the fact that the live update hasn't been announced this week gives me hope that there's a chance we'll still see some changes.

We got Balance changes last week after the Aesthetic improvements, so that wasn't "the end" at least.

I'm a big fan of all the charming little details these skill-trees have received in particular. Hope to see more in the future!

[siullajirafa]

Does this means that the update is soon, right? Because they're isn't something important to really change, everything is solved

I'd like to see the trees to get some balance patches, but yes i don't expect we'll see any mechanical changes after this.

I expect next week would be the live announcement and last beta patch (hopefully with QOL & buffs to Wendy and Wortox and maybe a fine tuning of Walter), going live at the end of the month.

If I play with you, I’d love to ask you for some of it. Cheap and no expiration date

[Coski25]

Any chance for Wendy’s skills Team Spirit 1,2 and 3 to be compressed into one skill and new perks replace the other two.

[Mysterious box]

Okay so after doing some light testing it Woby here Woby there lets you mark a location and Woby will drop off items in a chest in that area but if there isn't any chest to put the items in she'll return with the items still in her inventory

Flutter strip now also recovers 10 sanity with each use.

Edit: turns out the sanity boost was already a thing I just didn't realize

A suggestion would be to do something similar to Bernie’s skill tree, like adding a perk to increase Abigail’s speed and another to increase her health.

[zzzzzzzzzzz]

@杰森Do you still plan to properly revamp Wendy's skill tree?

你还打算好好改温蒂技能树吗？

This skill is really good! I just wish Mark Spot applied to where is Walter is standing as opposed to where Woby is.

[Coski25]

I think it would be cool to allow Gestalt Abigail to attack nightmare creatures it would make sense thematically.

After doing a bit more testing the way you send Woby to another player is to have both players holding a compass then you can select them as a delivery target.

While I get why it works the way it does it feels like this skill will rarely see use in this way simply because of how few people actually use the compass I kinda assumed this would allow me to send items to people who just spawned in too which is kinda disappointing though I guess I could leave a chest full of compasses at spawn or something but otherwise it's a great skill for sending items back to base.

[Cassielu]

Hmm I thought we were gonna get Wortox this week.

It seems that the launch of the update is still far away.

Oh right I forgot we're still waiting on the knapsack upgrade mentioned in the previous update.

[asdsaax]

I know it was said that Wortox's skilltree is in satisfying state

but does that mean we shouldn't expect any major changes despite of affinities and knabsack (including covetous collector) gathering a lot of critique and megathreads about our favourite imp?
