First time I kill Dragonfly and Deerclops!! :DDD


Recommended Posts

Soooo happy!! I don't even know what to do with the big amount of fancy things they dropped!! Maybe I even do it to pass winter for the first time. MAYBE. I'm afraid of opening the game anymore and die to a spooder, as always.

Just sharing my happiness with you guys. Love :D

Well, you got some gold and a nice handful of gems now. Get yourself a bit of nightmare fuel and a prestihatitator and you can make a few life giving amulets for when you forget to equip armor around spiders. Just make sure to carry it on your normal inventory. You can't haunt it and revive yourself if it's in a backpack.

Did you the Dragonfly alone? Jesus

I made Dragonfly fight Deerclops. I had to run away from lavae, pretty close to die. Deerclops won, I ran away to restore hp and killed him on next day xD

Not an impressive battle, just my first time surviving all that and getting the job done for now :D

Impressive! But how could the deerclops kill the dragonfly, if it has much less hp (4000 against 27500)? Even if it was freezing it all the time... It's hard to believe. I tried the same with bearger, but he lost against her. And all his fur got burned. :(

Anyways, nice job! :) I'll try this in the next winter. :)

Thanks!! Indeed, I read dragonfly was a good way to kill deerclops, and he was my main problem, as last times he killed me or made me lose all my sanity and get killed, and that's why I wanted to try the dragonfly thing. Maybe deerclops won because fire lavae were foccusing me? And yes, I saw dragonfly frozen a couple of times (most of the fight happened during the night and I was running for my life so I couldn't see a lot xD). Also, deerclops was veeery low hp after the fight, I only had to hit him like six times. I guess I got really lucky! Gotta love how random this game can be :D

He killed some goats on his way too, I got two fancy horns from them too, but I'm afraid I think all of them are ded. Will they spawn again in case there is no one left?

Nope. There has to be at least one volt goat left for more volt goats to spawn.

Yey! The thing is going preeeetty good. My previous live record was 35 days, now i'm at day 49 easy after that! I meet Goose for the first time, got her done easy too! I also saw her baby chicken, but I did not attack them xD maybe later

For the first time my base is starting to look like a real home :D now waiting for the beefalo mating season end to try to pet one of these fluffy boys.

For our Dragon Warriors to extend the warmest congratulations!

Hahahaha cheers mate! Thanks!!

Haha! Wow, that's amazing.  I once got Deerclops to spawn next to Dragonfly by _accident_...but I was already low health so I just got the heck out of there rather than stick around to see what happened.  I assume Dragon-chan smacked down Clopsy but good, but I didn't come back to that desert until spring so I don't know.  : P

As for the goats...I too have had trouble with them spawning next to the Dragonfly's lair.  One time, I went up to one and it ran directly _towards the lavapit_ to get away from me--and caught on fire.  But it STILL wouldn't let me come up to it!  That's how much these goats distrust you--they'd rather be ON FIRE.  Literally.

Edit:  Wait, you got rid of two giants at once--in Together--by yourself and your highest day record was _35_?!  Wow!  I had already gone well past a hundred by the first time _I_ was brave enough to try it.  Double congratulations!

...I usually get Dfly to kill Deerclops if I'm playing alone because I'm focusing on other things, but...it's never even close. That's weird. Like, it doesn't even lose enough health for Lavae to come out...
Maybe it got in a fight with something else first?

I had a Treeguard family spawn near it in a recent world and thought about getting them all to fight it later, but...the layout of that world was so bad that I had to reset it. Still might be a good idea if you can spawn a bunch.

I'm much more surprised Deerclops even managed to put up a fight tbh.

But good job. The first time is always the best, before you understand that the boss(in this case both of them) is a huge pushover.

Woooow! I didn't know about that amulet, just checked it on the wiki and that is great! Thanks a lot :D

Let me guess, you didn't really go through Magic yet, right? You have some neat stuff left to see if that's the case. I usually get a prestihatitor in Winter and upgrade to a Shadow Manipulator in Spring. A bunch of cool magic things actually.

The ruins gems also mean you can already craft some useful stuff in the Ruins once you find a psuedoscience machine, and the scales mean you can now live your fancy chest fantasies. Farming Scales in the future is also really nice.

Well, I actually thought that Eyebrella was a need for spring, so I always tried to kill deerclops and die around day 35. I played more than 100 hours already just starting again and again, so I think I tried quite a few times xD I also play as Wigfrid because I'm bad and need assist to not die that fast haha! And these ham helmets others use are SO UGLY :( and yeah, Eyebrella is saving me pretty bad during spring

It's not the first time I build the Magic thing, but I didn't really know these amulets are so good. The only Magic tab item I made before was the Ice Staff xD

Too bad I do not have caves in my server, so I think I can't go into ruins this time

Eyebrella is not needed, you have other options(Rain Coat is pretty dope if you don't mind not having a backpack on you, which you rarely actually need to carry everywhere). 

I love how the only item you built so far from the Magic tab is the Ice Staff. When you have meat effigies, dark swords, etc. which are some of the most used things, Ice Staff is a priority lol. And I'd say have caves. IMO it's not the full exprience without them.

I'm still learning and there are too many things around me to do and craft, so yes I miss a lot of them by now xD I didn't even use the Ice Staff a lot, I just ended up finding I could make one with some blue gems I found from tombs on my first games and crafted it. I really feel I NEED my backpack 24/7, and Eyebrella is making my life quite happier by now. Also, how badass can you feel wearing a super useful item you made out as a reward for killing your first giant ever? That's already pretty cool for me :D

About the caves, I feel a bit of lag when I set caves on, and my laptop takes pretty long to load the game. I'd love to have the full world and items of course. But as you can see, I still have A LOT to do on the surface, so I told myself I could enjoy and learn a lot on my no-lag world by now. I have to say I'm loving feeling like a noob all around and making efforts to stay alive hahaha. I've seen other players' base over day 49 on Youtube and mine looks horrible, but I still love my ****ty, poorly organized home xD

Heh.The reason I take way longer than 35 days to kill the Deerclops is...my usual method involves tooth traps.  Lots and lotsa them.  By the time of only the first winter, I don't have anywhere NEAR enough teeth from hounds yet.  : P

(Or, ya know, team up with other players. But quite often I end up playing alone by accident, and I don't yet trust my combat skills enough to not die by giant, and bang! there goes that whole world.)

As for spring...I tend to use an umbrella and make a rain hat, which is fairly easy to get.  Like you, I don't like leaving my backpack behind semi-permanently (taking it off to switch into armour for battle and then putting it right back on again, however, is okay) so I tend to do all my weather equipment as hats.  The puffy vest may be AWESOME for winter?  But god damn if I don't need that inventory space.

Congratulations. It's always very satisfying when you survive a whole year for the fist time. (and you can probably turn off those flingos now. Summer is long gone)

Oh right, everything is rushing so much and I had a few things on fire during summer I kept wasting wood on them on fire-paranoia hahahaha. Thanks for the advice!!
