Clockworks as well as hounds

[Magictwic]

I think that the clockwork chess pieces should have a chance to attack you instead of hounds. This would allow for infinite gears and clockwork rooks and bishops could provide an extra challenge. They would probably only start showing up after a year or so so that you don't get completely destroyed.

A year is a bit too much, don't you think?

I think 50 days would be better.

because originality.

I would like this happen, especially that DST maps have a considerable change not generating any clockwork mobs.

 

 

However, clockwork attack instead of hounds doesn't fit the story, maybe.

I was wishing the statues (Maxwell statue, harp statue, or a new statue) could spawn a clockwork every so often (the same way hound mounds spawn hounds). If you destroy the statue, it would stop spawning clockworks.

 

I too am raging about finding that there are only one or two clockworks in the whole world, after spending days exploring the entire map!
