Oh yes, finally!!

[Thieverpedia]

All we need are changes to the scion fight to make both the missiles and galvanized flooring a little more tolerable for larger teams and life will be good. Well, we're in The Constant, so life is terrible. So...more tolerable?

[Milordo]

Okay, NO. Slow down Klei. Moving an already good weapon, now incredibly buffed, to the orb, together with the axe and bath bomb, doesn't make sense at all to the progression AND balancing of Don't Starve, especially the bath bomb. What are you gonna do with bath bombs in the first level of the game and the ocean???? Nothing. It made sense to be found only on Lunar Island because that is its only reasons to exist (a poor one since it has been unbalanced for a lot of years now, poor forgotten item...). Glass axe it's a cool strong utility and your previous design of Glass cutters made completely sense to be there because they were essentially dark swords with the bonus of not decreasing your sanity and being more durable against shadows creatures, so you would consider it as a total win, BUT the item has less durability than dark swords AND needed every time to be crafted at Lunar Altar. I get it they suffered some little balancing issue, because compared to dark swords, dark swords tend to be used more for reasons I'm not going to list here, but slow down and think it through. Making them also prototayble could be very dangerous to the balance.

Also, Klei, I get it you needed time and space to release all things you have promised, but what about all the excellent feedback that has given to this beta? Aka = finishing the "drowning" rework with personal floaters, reworking how entities drops burn, wetness applications with water ballons, yellow hounds, spitter fish, ecc....

awesome change I'm glad to see made it in

[konijnenmoed]

Promising update, although I'd like to keep (some) damage for players with the Lunar Hail event.

[aoka404]

It is hoped that when players of the Moon camp wear the upgraded Enlightened Crown, some unique changes will occur in its image and effect.

Dont because it is a cool thing to carry the orb around.

They now have 3 slots that work similarly to Woby’s Rack.

3 slots at the cost of the dried or undried item be able to rot/perish.

It's a win win

Glass Cutter, Moon Glass Axe, and Bath Bomb have been moved to the Celestial Orb crafting tier

I like this idea, but I think the recipes should be unlocked only when the altar is repaired so you can't just go to the Lunar Grotto mine some glass and skip the island entirely

• • Increased damage for Glass Cutter and Moon Glass Axe against weaker shadow creatures.

Does anyone know what "against weaker shadow creatures" mean? For non boss enemies? 

[Cliffford W.]

Lovely

(I don't hate this feature. You get 3 slots at a cost)

What about new types of jerky as a part of the update? We still waiting for leafy meat, small and big fish, maybe some vegetables, to please Wurt lovers (like tomato or bananas), maybe let us catch squids whole and dry them (like in line and sinker update trailer)

Meat, Kelp and Kelp.

but i waited for them to rot if they really do and yea.

(I didn't rot the meat for visual difference)

You put it late and lose it. So if you have a lot of drying racks then better watch out

Should we expect to be able to repaired Warbler next week?

[Yaorin yon]

• This is a rare and completely pleasant update, without a single unpleasant element. The last time I encountered such an update might have been three years ago. Anyway, let's take this as a lesson

[Cliffford W.]

 

Sprites for both Rot and Unrot items that have unique rot texture

No it's just visual to differentiate rockjaw meat and fish morsel meat from normal rot

[Kacpert25]

Brightshade got a new shock state animation.

THISSSSS ^^^^^^^^^^^

It makes more sense and fun in unlocking things invisibly and then you get the surprise.

Гаразд, НІ . Зменште темп, Клею. Переміщення вже хорошої зброї, тепер неймовірно покращеної, на сферу разом із сокирою та бомбочкою для ванни взагалі не має сенсу для прогресу ТА балансу "Не голодуй", особливо бомбочки для ванни. Що ви збираєтеся робити з бомбочками для ванни на першому рівні гри та океаном???? Нічого. Має сенс знайти їх лише на Місячному острові, бо це єдина причина їх існування (погана, оскільки вони вже багато років не збалансовані, бідолашний забутий предмет...). Скляна сокира — це класна та сильна корисна річ, і ваш попередній дизайн склорізів мав цілком сенс бути там, бо вони були по суті темними мечами з бонусом не знижувати вашу розсудливість та бути більш стійкими до тіньових істот, тому ви б вважали це повною перемогою, АЛЕ предмет має меншу міцність, ніж темні мечі, ТА його потрібно було щоразу створювати на Місячному вівтарі. Я розумію, що вони зіткнулися з невеликими проблемами балансування, бо порівняно з темними мечами, темні мечі використовуються частіше з причин, які я не збираюся тут перераховувати, але варто знизити темп і добре все обміркувати. Перетворення їх також на прототиповані може бути дуже небезпечним для балансу.

 

I completely agree, the glass weapon and axe should be a discovery for players, having collected all three parts of the celestial altar, they should be rewarded for this with new items, and the finding itself The island is a significant achievement and, in general, the first stage associated with the lunar plot.

Glass weapons have no downsides to using them, especially since they now have a VERY cheap craft, so now they can only be found on the moon island (and the forge)

If only to make it more accessible to everyone to obtain a prototype, then in general, it would be logical to craft the opposite of the shadow sword: the shadow sword has 1 living tree and 6 shadow fuel, and the cutter would have 1 rotten (white) tree and 6 moon glass.

You can now make butterfly farm that would make them last forever or until they die.

They get stuck in place and cant get out, I would suggest that they should die on first contact or be able to fly away after some time.
They could make your world lag after some time if they keep spawning near and getting stuck.
