Abigail is more useful in Shipwrecked?


Recommended Posts

  When I played Wendy in Don't Starve, I find Abigail a burden as she gets killed for no silly reason other than fighting a tentacle head-on. 

   But now, when I play the Shipwrecked DLC, she seems a lot more useful than I thought.

  Abigail can easily punish those annoying monkeys which I can't even chase up to properly who keep stealing stuff on resource rich islands.

  Abigail can also deal with those cute stink rays for easy harvest of venom glands without getting poisoned herself.

  She's a good counter to poison as she can't get poisoned herself, which makes her useful in harvesting glands and fighting venomous creatures.

  And her classic aoe fighting spiders and bees.

Wendy in general is just better in the DLC in my book. Getting wet? Not as much a problem. There's not many things with that much HP in SW anyway, so her weakened attack shouldn't be much a problem, especially since you should be able to summon Abigail before anything big comes up anyway. I get a constant spider farm just because I camp out by spiders and Abigail completely wrecks them every night I'm at base. :D

Also killing ocean things. She's good at that even during the day.

I never really played here during ROG (despite loving her art and quotes) because of her weak attack.  
However, recently been trying her with Shipwrecked just for additional newness and have really enjoyed her.  She kills off a lot stuff and takes a brunt of the damage which has helped a lot, since Shipwrecked lacks a lot of pigskins (for football helmets).  

 

Overall, I have really enjoyed her company and she rarely dies once I've summoned her the first time.  However, the game is currently missing bosses, which I'm sure will cause her to "die" more often.
