Captain Potato Posted December 1, 2012 Share Posted December 1, 2012 The best thing I love about Don't starve currently is the strategies I can combine to create interesting results. Basically Discovering new techniques item wise and aswd wiseOne example is:Initially I found tentacles to be very scary. If I mindlessly walked thru the swamp I would be punished with death. They could not be killed even with full armour gear on so i deem them to be dangerous. These happened during my discovery phase.After that I learnt how to move through swamps with parkour left right button movements haha. But there must be a way to kill these things right? so I researched bee mines and it worked perfectly. But this was not efficient.Then I noticed by chance some spiders attacking the tentacles. This gave me an idea. I farmed for spider eggs and placed them strategically around the tentacles(at the same time without getting hit). I went about my business until the spider eggs grew to size 3. I then camped near the swampy areas during evening time and watched them fight each other to the bitter end. I then waited for morning to arrive in the forest nearby.(bided time by looking for branches).I also notice they do not fight if i did not watch them actually start fighting.In the morning I found silk,monster meat and the more than awesome spiky bat. Discovering this bat was just awesome. This kind of strategy play I what I love about this game and I hope there would be more kinds of interactions between different items/monsters that create interesting results in the future.

NeedPants Posted December 1, 2012 Share Posted December 1, 2012 Tentacles take quite a few hits with a spear to kill, with a tentacle spike i believe wilson kills them in 7 hits. The trick is to find the right timing to attack a tentacle and kite it till it dies. U can kill it without getting hit once. Good luck finding it out, if u want to know the exact trick, read around the forums, me and several others posted it in various related threads. Or just PM me =)Have fun!

501105 Posted December 1, 2012 Share Posted December 1, 2012 It is indeed a very lovely and addictive game. There are so many things to explore and try out and thanks to the random element of each world it stays interesting.As my fellow Dutchmen said, Have fun.
