Can WX spend his own Charge to repair the morning star and other stuff?

[Jakepeng99]

A user on discord called Soup Eater told me to make a post for them since i really loved this idea. Though i added a few of my own things.

It would be cool if WX had a skill that let him spend some charge to repair the morning star, Jules, The astroggles, Winona's nitre machine and Winbots (Maybe?), and anything else this would logically apply to that i havent thought of.

I believe it would be really cool as a skill, in the same section as the skills that increase your power regeneration. It wont make him op since you would be giving up something else, its just a really niche yet useful thing you can use your points for.

 

I am hoping to see WX's charge mechanic have a little more depth than just a punishment for circuit swapping.

I was playing Winona and thought the same thing, so I came here to make a suggestion. You beat me to it.

Also with the ways to charge it being added, it would be cool if it wasn't destroyed at 0%, since volt goat horns can be very annoying to farm, especially in multiplayer with several people competing for them

It should be destroyed at 0% tbh. Only way to charge it as a regular player is lighting rods and moon gleams so it kind of becomes clutter for most people. 

Or maybe im overreacting

It can no longer be charged with moongleam. This has been removed.

Oh then that strengthens my point ig.

I like this!

1. More charge interaction: letting you voluntarily sacrifice some charges to charge something an interesting trade-off.

2. Zapper Drone synergy: having a way to recharge the drone without waiting for spring weather or relying on Winona could be nice.

Maybe a interaction with the electric circuit? Getting Hit causes the morning star to gain some charge? Trading health for durability in a way.

Nah I don’t like that. I prefer Soup’s way, also that just seems like a janky but easy way to refuel it to 100.

Maybe I just thought it would be a fun way to do it.

Lightning rods do get hit at least once a year with how crazy Spring storms are, so I think having them persist at 0% is good to communicate to the player that they can be recharged. Even a since lightning strike can charge up multiple Morning Stars, so at worst you make a few of them and repair them all once a year.
