[Items Suggestion] Piratehatitator items suggestion

[Nicolews]

With the new materials available in SW and the new name and formula for the Tier-1 Magic prototyper, I thought about a few idea of new magic items specific to SW. They're a bit silly, but meant for fun.

 

 

1) Ghost Ship

- Crafted from 6 Living Log, 10 bone shards, and 3 Nightmare Fuel
[EDITED: Removed seaweeds to keep recipe at 3 items]

 

The Ghost Ship is roughly on a level with the armoured boat (the materials I came up with are more or less a transposition of the armoured boat's). Being in the Ghost Ship drains sanity. Though it lacks a Sails slot, its speeds grows as your sanity drop.

 

Your speed is on par with an Armoured Ship with a Cloth Sail when reaching penultimate insanity stage. Once insane, you're ~20% quicker and ignore Wind and Waves effect on your travel speed, be they positive or negative. You still get wet and damaged if you face a wave, though.

[EDITED: Taking into account suggestions]

 

 

2) Coconut Hooves

- Crafted from 1 coconut, 2 Living Logs, 2 Nightmare fuels

 

Because a game with coconuts and madness shouldn't miss the Holy Grail reference . The Coconut Hooves are equipped in the Hands slot, drain sanity, and increase your walking speed (galloping noise is a bonus). They have a limited durability (something like 3-4 days).

Haha I love these suggestions.

 

On the Ghost Ship, I think it's a really cool idea, but I don't see how it would offer an advantage to the player. It uses late-ish game materials, so everyone will have the option of an armored ship with cloth sail at least a few days before they could craft this one. I think it should move decently faster when insane (<20%) in addition to canceling the wind's effect.

 

I do appreciate your suggestions not being overpowered, as many are here on the forums.

I want the ghost ship!!

I like the Coconut hoves just for the Monty Python reference alone.

 

The Ghostship i'm torn i like it going faster as Sanity drains but it should have a higher innitial speed and topspeed then the Armored boat with a CLothsail because going insane just for high speed when i can achive the same without the sanity drain is better for me.

 

My suggestion is A) take out the seaweed reason is that all recipes in DS use 3 items at max for crafting (and some mods that make you use 4 break the UI what looks god damn ugly). B) The Ghostship has a higher topspeed then the armored boat with a cloth sail at 0 sanity. C) While riding the Ghostship you ignore wavecollision (you still get wet but the boatdurability doesn't drain).

 

This way it's a pretty usefull item for a semi hefty cost in terms of getting your sanity back up later.

Why do people constantly suggest recipes that require 4 different ingredients? Have you, or have you not played the game Do Not Starve?

I did, though I don't have triple-digits ingame hours unless you add up DS and DST.

I never noticed the max-3-ingredients rule before you and others mentionned it.

I like the ideas, but the ghost ship should be more OP for it's insanity drain and material cost. Since a ghost ship is kinda ethereal in a sense, the boat should never take damage, the constant sanity drain should be enough to balance it out. It should also move as fast a sailboat with a cloth sail.

the ghost ship should ignore the wave colision and have more HP than the Armored Ship

Oh, aren't all (well most) magic items useless? Is it just me?

Magic items are quite useful, mainly the staffs and amulets, it's just a matter of how you use them and when you use them.

Like the One-Man Band, that thing is precious.

I guess so...I always found most to be quite useless. The armour/sword and ice staff were the only ones i made.

 

Can't you just give pigs mm instead of the sanity drain from one man band? See...useless

One-Man Band gathers many pigmen almost at the same time, which is good in emergencies. Sanity never was an issue to me, really. It's easy to keep it high if you know how to manage it.

Each one to their own i guess. I just have so much spoiled meat that i give that.
