Chesska Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 If you die as Wilson you lose all of your beard progress and have nothing to show for it. Willow gets to use her lighter again when she gets revived, Wendy keeps Abigail even as a ghost... why does Wilson have to get the short end of the stick and lose his perk entirely upon death?

rezecib Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 @TheShankingTurtle, It takes 16 days for it to grow back fully. The 5-day beard is only 1 beard bit, so it hardly does anything. (16-day is 9 beard bits). Personally I think he should drop half of the beard bits on death, so you still lose something, but it's not the utter crushing loss it is right now.

Also, because if this were to happen, a Wilson with a magnificent beard could be a target for other players in PvP... make him a beard resource or something... but that's just in extreme cases... but then again, this game includes burning an entire forest just for a single night's light so...

O__O I don't even think about PvP because I play Don't Starve TOGETHER I don't even remotely care about PvP balance and I wish people would stop using that to get rid of great co-op ideas. The rules for PvP can always be different as well, make Wilson drop his beard hairs in Survival but not other modes.

DarkXero Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 If you died with a beard, it's ok you lose it all. After all, what's blocking you from shaving it?If you are so afraid of losing your beard hair, shave as soon as possible.

DarkXero Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 Winter? So what? You can survive winter without a beard, like any not Wilson character. You can pick to get the beard hair now, and get hair to revive, or you can try to save it for later, and using it for winter. If you try to make winter easier with the beard, you take the risk of losing it, so it's fair.

Also, as someone who has to scrap together enough resources for the people who join the server mid winter (despite the warning in the server title), the beard is what kept me playing the game during winter. You may act like it is easy to get through winter, but know that even good players struggle under circumstances. It is hardly fair to put that much risk on a slow producing reward that revives ONE player when crafted with other time consuming resources.

There is no risk at all.You are trying to sell me that the risk is not being able to use the perk.When people died in singleplayer, they lost the beard and the everything. What changed now? The beard is one perfect perk.And the stage 3 beard gives 9 hair, which gives you enough for 2 meat effigies. If you lose your stage 3 beard by dying, you clearly made a poor decision when you thought you were able to survive, and should have shaved.

Asparagus Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 I don't even think about PvP because I play Don't Starve TOGETHER I would like to quote Zangief in Wreck-it-Ralph: Just because you are bad guy doesn't mean you are bad guy... Just replace "bad guy" with "together"... O__O sure you're "together" in the same world but that doesn't mean you guys should be "together" ergo, the introduction of PvP I do agree with you about the co-op opportunities...but I was only referring to the possibility of that happening... If Wilson were to drop his beard upon death, then someone might get the idea of hunting down Wilsons for their beard... especially in dedicated servers...
