Whale drops too much blubber now?


Recommended Posts

In recent update, they made whales drop at least 4 blubber, which allows you to make blubber suit by killing just one whale (If you are lucky, you might even get extra blubber  to make windbreaker too). Blubber suit is essential for surviving of half of the year, and it makes me think that killing just one whale for that is OP

Considering the durability of the blubber suit I'd say that's not too bad. Additionally, it is far from essential as there are many other options for dealing with wetness throughout the year.

For other times with the exception of doublrella (Not sure how it's called), you need sacrifice two slots of equipment.

Well it's worth considering that all it ever really took to make a puffy/breezy vest which made winter a lot easier to deal with was just killing a single koelefant. Seems like a very similar situation here in my opinion.

 

Besides, being able to find and kill 2+ whales and also let them bloat before Storm season rolls around is a lot to ask of most players.

WRONG! 1x trunk + 2x wool + 8x silk:

- find and track 1x koala (winter one!)

- find and kill Beefalo

- kill bunch of spiders/spider dens

 

Blubber suit is advanced piece of clothing and not for "most players" to have so soon. Thats why there is snake skin gear!

 

Make it harder Klei!

eh cmon who doesn't have like 20 silk sitting around at all times? :p

I was mostly talking about using blubber for a windbreaker btw. You don't even need a blubber suit till monsoon season imo if at all

I don't find blubber suit and windbreaker very useful.

There are players that don't carry useless stuff and don't need backpack. But if you like to move like snail in wind that is your choice :) Also blubber suit is 100% water protection so you can wear whatever hat you want .)

So you have first season 20 silk sitting around your base? Good for you! Doesnt mean it is not part of Puffy/that other crappy-one vest recipe

 

Yeah you can use it in second season too. See above ^

Of cause I don't want to move like a snail lol.

However that slow effect isn't too strong, and doesn't last that long. It make no sense to drop my backpack and wear it for a few second of strong wind. Cause I will then have to backtrack and find my backpack.

If it is like a whole day of non-stopping strong wind then yes I think I will need it.

Otherwise umbrella + football helmet/ miner hat and I got to keep my backpack, good enough.

I never build the blubber suit and survived for 80 days, what does it do? Heat or water protection?

 

Edit:

 

I see only water res.

"You don't even need a blubber suit till monsoon season imo if at all."

 

Indeed.

 

There are many ways to prevent wetness and if you collect a **** load of items on long journeys,

bagpack + umbrella, dumbrella/snake hat is better in most cases. Does blubber suit has lightning res?

Why you liked my post, then?

 

Sarcasm, the windbreaker is only in 1 season usefull and only if it is windy in that season

AND if you have to run in the direction from what the wind comes...sooo the windbreaker is actually

most of the time quiet useless, like you said.

 

And there for the like. ^^

The thing that is relevant to my point is whether or not a puffy vest is easily doable during the first winter, which it is, imo. 8 silk is a ridiculously small thing to ask for around 20 days. I always have 10 at the very minimum by the time winter rolls around and I'm not even that good at the game.

Kill whale and come back after 3 days

 

VS

 

Kill koala (already in winter), kill 20 spiders and kill 1 beefalo

Or.. Kill a koalefant, shave a beefalow, and kill a couple spider nests. That's what I do. It's ridiculously easy to just do as you're running around. Killing a koalefant on the first day of winter as well, when it's not even that cold
