TheKingofSquirrels Posted May 25, 2014 Share Posted May 25, 2014 So I set my camp near two Moleworm spawn points. Turns out, although they are sometimes irritating because of their stone thieving habits, they are a great benefit. The spawn everyday and I bait them with stones so I can kill them, and basically I have two pieces of morsel a day. I don´t know why I bothered making farms for the Winter, I am literally having food delivered to me. To be honest, it feels a little like cheating, I think Klei should fix this.

MizYin Posted May 25, 2014 Share Posted May 25, 2014 Nah, you can just put a trap DIRECTLY over the rabbit hole, no hunting required. Just make part of your daily routine to pick up the traps, and place them back down. Just as you could run out of rocks baiting moleworms, I could easily run out of trap materials, since they're used for a lot of things.

Just as you could run out of rocks baiting moleworms, I could easily run out of trap materials, since they're used for a lot of things. Er, I don't think you're likely to run out of materials to bait moleworms with, considering they even eat ashes. If you're doing it right, they won't even eat the bait. Even if they do, don't they drop what they've eaten when they die? I don't imagine that getting meat from moleworms is that much easier than getting it from rabbits. However, there is something I'm concerned about here. Aren't moleworms supposed to dig new burrows when you release them? Doesn't that mean you could create your own meat farm at practically no cost?

I can never find loads on default, so maybe it's just me.As for mole worms, eh, maybe. I'm gonna make a pen just to keep a few, myself, not like I haven't already got 16 improved farms up and 11 meat racks. I guess it also helps that I seem to have found the best place resource wise, and it's certainly my most successfully run. Plenty of beefalo to boot. Hounds aren't a trouble, yada yada. No pigs or spiders nearby for easy farming, though. I guess bunnies are somewhat cheating, if down to the quick respawn time, but as Wigrid i'd be dead without them mostly during the early starts, *I have terrible luck finding meat resources as her for some reason much of the time* and completely screwed on King of Winter, which I've unfortunately started on first... Let's face it. For a game called Don't Starve, I can't help but think the developers named it that as a form of irony. Starving is really the last thing that will happen. It's everything else you should worry about first.

But at least for rabbits you need to build traps. With moles, literally all I have to do is stand there , place a piece of stone and then hit them with an axe, and then win. And they respawn everyday, so I´m never running out.

I have trouble living off of just those things alone, so therefore, not OP imo. Also, your idea of balances for honey/bee farms is patently absurd, i'm telling you right now. 2 weeks just to make honey ham? Or a bandage? That's an entire season down the tube!

LadyAzure Posted May 25, 2014 Share Posted May 25, 2014 Glad I could help, oh btw becareful not to run near your bunny pen when hounds are chasing you, they will attack them until they are dead. Just stay clear of the pen during this time and be sure to build with stone and reinforce it.

Fast spoil rate, don't restore much hunger, grow slow, and almost don't grow at all during winter. The only thing they are really good for is crockpot recipes. Even then they become obsolete when you have the resources for better recipes.

The things you do to get food on the other hand do often kill you. You could go Koalefant hunting for food but then get killed by a Varg for instance.

Grass wall still counts as a blockade, even if its a real crappy one.
