landromat Posted October 3, 2017 Share Posted October 3, 2017 Allow us to put our backpacks on the beefalo. Maybe saddle that allow you to put backpack on or just make it beefalo feature Beefalo more viable? - check Body items more viable? - check broken? - no Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pedregales Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 And also make a saddle that has 4 extra slots with it similar to the cargo boat on SW? And now that we are at it, we could make the pudgy beefalo a bit more viable by giving them 2 extra slots with any saddle, making them the "mule" of the three.

spideswine Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 So basically a crappier chester? Even he just ends up as a way to scare gekkos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pedregales Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 I wouldn't say crappier. You can still bring Chester with you, and you can mount the beefalo for a lot of extra speed and also use them for slightly easier battle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spideswine Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 5 hours ago, landromat said: You can put and take your backpack anytime, so it's better chester What do you mean? Switching your backpack for the one on the beefalo, compared to switching items with chester? I'd say switching backpacks instead of just opening it like a chest would make it even less convenient, add to that the fact beefalos are fairly good at getting themselves killed+how annoying it is to get a new one if it does get itself killed(in contrast to chester who will just respawn in a day), plus the fact you need to install salt licks if you want to leave them alone for a while, and that you need to get off of them to gather resources then get back to them(whereas chester just follows), and I'd say chester still beats this proposal easily...and even chester generally just ends up scaring gekkos.

Main reason of my idea was to free body slot for items like belt of hunger etc, Otherwise i can just make suggestion to add item slots for beefalo. it's just super nice when somebody can bring your backpack while you wearing good body items, and i think beefalo are good enough, They are hard to get, so even with backpaks beefalo does not look OP, but it can make them better than now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Main reason of my idea was to free body slot for items like belt of hunger etc, Thing is beefalo already free enough slots(no need to wear armor, and hand slot is free), there simply isn't much use of that, as already riding a beefalo you can use hand for light, body slot for backpack, and head slot for insulation/sanity, it's just pointless. Also you probably won't bother constantly switching body items on it due to convenience anyway. 1 hour ago, landromat said: it's just super nice when somebody can bring your backpack while you wearing good body items, "Super nice"? Really? I wouldn't even call this slightly useful, as even that would be a severe exaggeration on the usefulness of the ability to do that(unless you're going underground, then you can't even do that.) 1 hour ago, landromat said: and i think beefalo are good enough Well that's not something I hear everyday. Why would you possibly think that? Outside of some extremely specific circumstances(involving wes or wendy, plus a bunch of other rather uncommon things) they are a waste of time. 1 hour ago, landromat said: They are hard to get, so even with backpaks beefalo does not look OP, but it can make them better than now They aren't exactly hard to get, they are tedious to get. Now that's more or less the same thing, the problem is that if we would just heavily buff them I'm not sure I'd be comfortable with that, as getting them isn't much of a challenge as much as it is a nuisance. Maybe make some stronger saddles(with special abilities to them, like say death prevention, at least to some extent) which require raid boss drops to build, that's the best I can come up with as to buffing beefalos(and they very much need buffs imo).
