F1sh Posted September 19, 2015 Share Posted September 19, 2015 Right now, the beekeeper hat costs 8 silk, 1 rope, while the football helmet is 1 skin, 1 rope. Both have a 80% damage reduction, but the beekeeper hat only works for bees. There's no reason to use the beekeeper hat over the football helmet. Also, I hate it how bees stun lock you. There's no way to harvest honey without getting hurt.

Derpime Posted September 19, 2015 Share Posted September 19, 2015 Maybe it should make bees only deal 1 or 10 damage to you like the slurtle shell.Right now it's useless...

Tumalu Posted September 19, 2015 Share Posted September 19, 2015 Considering that in DST the equipment values have been nerfed... if the beekeeper hat severely reduced bee damage even -after- accounting for DST equip nerfs (like 95% resistance or whatever is necessary for 1 bee damage) then it'd probably be worth bothering to use. More importantly than when you're harvesting your honey is when you're actually going out to get your first bees (Because then you actually do fight a lot) or if you're going through a killer bee field. So, if it was notably stronger than a football helmet, it'd not be bad. However, 8 silk is still fairly steep for a helmet only good against one thing, considering all the important stuff you want silk for, and that you could just use a football helmet. So if the defense bonus wasn't a -lot- better, probably nerf the silk cost too.

XirmiX Posted September 19, 2015 Share Posted September 19, 2015 How about if the bees don't stun you while you wear the hat and they hit you? Would be very useful!

jbeetle Posted September 19, 2015 Share Posted September 19, 2015 I'm interested in hearing the reasoning from the people that say it's fine like it is. I hadn't really thought about it until this thread was made, but I think OP is right, especially if it's just a niche football helmet that doesn't even do its job better than the football helmet.

Lumina Posted September 19, 2015 Share Posted September 19, 2015 I would love the "not attack you when you harvest the honey". Give you a real reason to make it.

Toroic Posted September 19, 2015 Share Posted September 19, 2015 It should work like a clothing item, exactly the same as the beefalo hat.

StaypuftMMM Posted September 19, 2015 Share Posted September 19, 2015 I thought there was a time when it did do 95% damage reduction from bees. Was I dreaming…?

StaypuftMMM Posted September 19, 2015 Share Posted September 19, 2015 It does have 750 durability compared to the 450 of the football helmet. Still doesn't really make it worth it but does help.

ConfusedCourier Posted September 19, 2015 Share Posted September 19, 2015 Should be 95% resist and make bees not stun you imo. Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/57963-make-the-beekeeper-hat-not-useless/#findComment-674303 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edebadi Posted September 20, 2015 Share Posted September 20, 2015 Taking no damage is good.That's the way it is in real life.But considering %95 defence is good,too.
