Daggaroth Posted March 28, 2016 Share Posted March 28, 2016 Since the Seas the Day update I've noticed that having 100% water resistance seems to prevent gaining wetness from crashing into Waves. The boat damage is still there of course. In fact, it is proportional, so if you hit a Big Wave that causes 25 wetness and you have an Umbrella (90% water resist), but will take on 3 (2.5) wetness. I'm glad that this is the case, it just seems strange that they didn't mention it in the change log (unless I'm dumb and missed it). PS. Water Beefalo also seem a lot more plentiful even on Default settings Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They will attack you on land(I discovered this in the worst possible way). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That doesn't seem to be the case for me. In my current world the Water Beefalo periodically go in and out of heat just as normal Beefalo do, and they only attack me (and Packim) when they're in heat but ignore us otherwise. The only different in behaviour I've noticed is that Water Beefalo start the world in heat (I actually found them on Day 2 because of how common they seem to be now; in about 50% of Mangroves) whereas Beefalo don't to my knowledge.

voyager156 Posted March 28, 2016 Share Posted March 28, 2016 Well, in mild season Water Beefalos where attacking monkeys (on land of course). When I got close to them, they start attacking me also. And this was not the first time since i play SW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daggaroth Posted March 28, 2016 Author Share Posted March 28, 2016 At the very least the water resistance alleviates some of the problems caused by crashing into waves that you thought were 'safe', which seems to be a pretty common complaint. There are a number of times where I've attempted to sail over a nice series of waves, only to smash into them all unexpectedly (guess I should have rotated my camera to double check *rolls eyes*). At least now I won't suddenly shoot up to more than 40 Wetness and feel the need to park my boat somewhere and quickly dry off, because even an Umbrella alone is great. Of course, the boat will still take damage, but since Logs, Grass and Stinger are simple to farm, I don't mind carrying around Boat Repair Kits.

What do you mean permament heat state but dont attack you? (also I actually never saw a water beefalo in heat) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
