Karmattack Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 I know that we know Winona's personal item, mending tape, but characters with personal items also have a personal ability. (Lucy is an axe that doesn't break but Woodie also has the Werebeaver, for example.) Do we know what her actual power is yet? I vaguely recall something about her being able to avoid one hit from Charlie but that sounds useless enough to probably be a placeholder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
landromat Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 Woodie also can chop trees twice as fast. It's his own abilty. Lucy is just infinite twice effective axe I think ability to dodge one hit is just little con, to make her feel more like charlie's sister. She obviously will have her own ablility. Who knows, maybe she can build machines or something. God, can't wait for release Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karmattack Posted September 12, 2017 Author Share Posted September 12, 2017 It is pretty exciting, we haven't had a new character since Shipwrecked and because they're not included in DST (which is the only one getting updates anymore) it feels even longer.

TemporaryMan Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 Awfully hypocritical for the DS community to complain, even though they had RoG first. Were free copies of DST, loyal skins, and member titles for participation in DLC reveal puzzles not enough? I even hear some of them flaunt that they have Shipwrecked despite not actually playing it! The nerve! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShadowDuelist Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 Her description says something like "and her indomitable spirit" but Im not sure what that could mean. More resilient to something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1v0 Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 I hope she will be some kind of tank like = -25 % dmg taken or +25% hp for all items she wears . Because for now WX is kinda the best tank (a lot of hp) . True in DS/DST is better to dodge attacks but I like tanks . But oh well it's 12 we will know for sure tommorw .

But oh well it's 12 we will know for sure tommorw . actually Wigfrid is the best tank now because of her 25% damage reduction and lifesteal (and 25% more damage as cherry on the top) She is the best character for sustain fight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Add a 1 free hit from Charlie. Again, just a random thought... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lumina Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 RNG is a great tool for some things, but i'm not fan of it for things like combat. I also hope that she will offers nice things for something else than combat, we already have very powerful combat character, and it's hard to make a place for a new character, when you have more space in other fields. (RNG is great for me when it comes to diversity, like set piece and stuff like this) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even tanking giants he starts 100 hp ahead and his bonus damage overpowes Wig's damage and mitigation. I agree that Wolf's overpowered. His only real weakness is higher food consumption which is barely an issue to begin with and solved with a belt of hunger. For that he gets effectively 4x the fighting ability of Wilson (2x damage and 2x health) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More resilient to something? Apparently having an indomitable spirit means to be courageous and to not hesitant or be fearful in the face of danger. Hope this doesn't mean she's a fighter character. Alternatively, it could be referring to the will to never give up. I don't know what that would mean in terms of any special powers or perks. Maybe it's just something to describe her character and has nothing to do with her powers/perks. Who knows! I'm excited to find out though.

Karmattack Posted September 13, 2017 Author Share Posted September 13, 2017 Being a factory worker I could always hope she'd have her own tab with useful (but stationary) machines she can build to help the base but I think Wicker was the last personal crafting focused character made (not counting Maxwell's DST retool).
