reed1000 Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 Can Krampus be killed? I'm tired of being too good but I don't want him to take me stuff. Can I just shoot him with a sleeping dart and kill him? Or will many many more Krampi come? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TourianTourist Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 Good thing he will also go for backpacks. Because I hated the thought of stuffing everything valuable into backpacks instead of chests, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TehSwizz Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 Hmmm... Theorizing here: Maybe different Krampus bags have different number of slots. I imagine Krampus will steal items until his backpack is full and then he will disappear. As Kevin just said, some are more greedy than others, and that could mean that some have larger bags than others.Well, I haven't played the update yet (since I'm off home), so I'm speculating.Wouldn't it be awesome if a drop from his was said large bag?

Daniver Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 Wouldn't it be awesome if a drop from his was said large bag?He actually does drop a 10 slot bag, but according to the wiki there's a 1% chance of it actually dropping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A Bad Feeling Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 Wouldn't it be awesome if a drop from his was said large bag?They indeed drop their bag! People were speculating it is a 1% chance of drop, and it works just like a backpack, but has 2 more slots.It would indeed be nice if some bags had more than just two more slots than the standard backpack.

reed1000 Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 Do Tallbirds respawn now? Because I stole an egg and somehow the Tallbird attacked a beefalo and died, and when I went back to where the nest was, there was another Tallbird. So I killed that one and I'm going to see if it respawned.Also, will Krampus fall asleep if you shoot him with a sleep dart? I want his drops (especially the bag) but I don't want him to take my stuff and vanish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A Bad Feeling Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 Yes, Tallbirds do respawn now.I do believe that Krampus will fall asleep if you shoot him with a sleep dart, but I can't confirm that right now (since I can't play the game right now because I'm off home).

Ditocoaf Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 Get ready to sigh, because: I think it's too heavy a nerf!Instead of making him easier across-the-board, I'd prefer to add ways to "deal with him", that require player knowledge. 1) I'd like there to be some way to prevent him from disappearing, so if you know the right tricks you don't have to worry about losing your stuff .2) Instead of making him always target loose items before chests, why not have him target items semi-equally? That way, it's still possible to distract him with random junk if you purposefully strew enough of it around, but if you aren't doing it on purpose, Krampus won't be perpetually distracted by birds dropping seeds.3) It can take a couple days of doing nothing but bunny-killing to goad Krampus out, when I want to fight him. That seems a little too infrequent to me.Thank you for being so fast with this hotfix, of course! And thanks for being patient for the inevitable incessant balance arguments from the audience. Everyone who plays a beta wants is imagining a different completed game, and we'll all always argue based on what we want Don't Starve to become. But in the end, the only vision that should matter is what YOU want it to become, because you're the only ones who can picture the full arc of development. Don't be distracted by community wishes too often (such as with the research system, which some people have become too attached to). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cvillain Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 (edited) The Krampus vanishes once his greed has been satisfied.Hmmm... Theorizing here: Maybe different Krampus bags have different number of slots. I imagine Krampus will steal items until his backpack is full and then he will disappear..Just a thought, and a strange first post...but considering Krampus' sack allows him to vanish and, ostensibly to teleport to safety, what if it gave the user the ability to, with maybe some sort of research or discovery, 'unlock' the potential of the sack and use it, say, once a week or every few days, to teleport to the nearest fire pit/"base"? Anyways, love the new updates as of late! As I huge fan of roguelikes and well...the like, I'm loving all these little additions that beat you up, kick you while you're down, spit on your face, roll you around in the mud, and then steal your girlfriend, all while looking delightfully early-Burtonesque Keep up the great work guys!edit: If there is a better thread for this, lemme know. Just seemed the right place as the vanishing had come up a few times Edited December 13, 2012 by Cvillain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I live in the "savanna" biome to collect a lot of poop but my Beefalos wander off and get killed by tentacles and Tallbirds. Will they come back or will I be poopless forever?

Joy Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 The Krampus vanishes once his greed has been satisfied. All Krampuses are greedy, but some are more greedy than others.If he's not going after backpacks at all, that's a bug. Dang it, I thought I tested that. Maybe it was after the push. Anyway, backpacks won't be safe from Krampus in the long term, if they aren't already.Finally got up my nerve to kill some bunnies and pigs on purpose to get Krampus to come after me. I put my extra backpack down (that holds all my loots from traveling) and start killing the pigs in their village. 2 krampus show up and I watched one of them swipe up my backpack off the ground! Was able to kill both and get it back. So no bug for my game.. lucky me =D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeedPants Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 Do tentacles respawn now? my current map has like a miniswamp that is mostly grass anyway... So far Krampi have caused alot of mess in my camp, but none has actually managed to permanently steal anything from me yet. Other then that im starting to feel a little nicer, so i increased my amount of farms. Tiz annoying dealing with Krampus every 2-3 days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GoGalactic Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 Can someone please help me? ): Yesterday, I played from the beginning (a new world) Day 1 till Day 30+ (everything within that day) and then I quit after the morning save, then I logged out. Now when I wanna log in again, there's no 'continue', there's only 'new game'. WTF?! I was playing as Wolfgang and had collected lots of stuff!! OMG WHY WHY can someone help me please? Why did this awful thing happen? How can I recover my game? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xaradox Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 (edited) I could care less about the research as it can be accumulated pretty quickly, but losing all the xp and unlocked characters, that is too much. I just wanted to unlock the last character and try it out, but now that I lost all the previous experience I no longer see the point. I can't believe you don't back up your server data to do a roll-back. Very very disappointed. Feels like such a waste of time and money.

Its stored (in Chrome) in your local storage or by Steam on the Cloud save system. The issue is based only on the Chrome version and the data is being lost from your computer, not a server.

Shouldn't it still be there then? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
