Character Rebalance Discussion thread

[jbeetle]

she isn't OP. if she dies, Wendy is left with fighting by herself...who is weak.

[Salsa]

I can see a surge of people playing WX-78 just like they've been doing with Wolfgang.

[bigpak]

I think that the gear part could use a bit of tuning on the actual numbers which are subject to change but other than that it seems pretty good, other than if you get hit by lightning the sanity drain should be pretty bad.

I personally played WX more than anyone but Wilson, now I might play Wolfy or Wendy, or just stick with Wilson. But I do look forward to playing with Wes' balloons. :3

[Lexicroft]

Wendy rebalance is very great! Thanks a lot, klei :joyous:Nothing must be changed

How many gears are per world? because I think 15 gears means like 3 worlds to archive a lot of health and sanity. Still Wolfie has the bonus of killing faster, so that Wolfie being UP and Wx being OP is debatable. Also, I think the idea is the fun aspect, while an upgraded WX is tankier, I see fun in activate berserk with Wolfang a la Popeye

[MadCookie93]

So wait, now you're supporting [MENTION=7126]Raccoon_Superheroes[/MENTION] idea?

i always played the robot :3 love the non human characters <3 cant wait for moreedit : it would be something if wx-78 would grow biger in size not only in stats from eating gears ;D idk change and get slower movement or some other con for eating to much gears so he will get heavier ! or if he will get rusty cuz of rain Edited June 18, 2013 by MadCookie93

I just want you to know before we can move the conversation forward that's a (somewhat) bigoted response you have, and you should try being more open to peoples ideas in the future.I also like Wendys' new design!

I actually think this change is going to be negative for Wendy. The lower combat damage is going to be a huge nerf since the player is the main source of damage in pretty much any fight (spider raids, boss monsters, koalaphant). The lower damage means more wear and tear on weapons, less effective kiting (takes longer, more chance of making a mistake) and spiders/ hounds are going to be a nightmare if Wendy can't two shot spiders/elemental hounds with a dark sword/tentacle spike.Unless Abigail gets a large health buff, she's not going to last long against a tree guard or a spider queen making her useless when the damage is really needed. The perk is going to be good early game but later when the player is going up against boss monsters, the damage nerf is going to be a huge advantage.

abby should be a tank or so .. for how long she will last u can do some dmg .. so ups and downs

[Unknown Zombie]

[CREU]

Yes Abby is kinda weak. I remember a keeper spawning and Abby going through him. He 2 shot her! I don't know if it was a bug or something glitchy, but that was ridiculous. 3 seconds of life of your "tank" She better have more health than that if we are to sacrifice stuff for her and have less damage as Wendy.

Updated wickerbottom's stuff (it's still work in progress).Abigail has more health now, and will scare away prey.

[jbeetle]

I like where wickerbottom is going. What is the point of calling down a flock of birds though?

You deserve a pat on the back for all this fantastic work!

I'm not sure yet. Maybe you make a bunch of bird traps first? Or combine it with the fire book to make a lot of cooked meat all at once?

fair enough. too bad they can't be.....ANGRY birds.

[ConeyKrab]

Wickerbottom seems interesting so far, hope there'll be more to her. So does she need the bedtime stories book in order to fall asleep then? As long as it isn't too expensive, I guess..

[RetroGamer2000]

Or with the sleeping book to put them all to sleep.

[L0stLP]

Jaw dropped when I read Wickerbottom's "Spells".Her sleep ability means she can't use Straw Roll, Fur Roll, Tent, Mandrake Way ?

[L0stLP]

Does "Applied Horticulture" affect only farm plots or does it extend to trees, saplings, grass, reeds, berries, mushrooms.

[Hudxesonael]

I got an indea for another of Wickerbottom's book:

Encyclopaedia: heavy book that can be used as a weapon (axe strength) that is indestructible (because of its hard cover);

It also has a cooldown - once a day you can read it giving you a chance to find a blueprint (that you don't have)
