Always been an issue for me. It's just how Don't Starve is, sadly! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also I found the +10% fire damage kind of meh. I could be mistaken, but I think Bernie, the bear, only starts taunting to draw aggro after Willow takes damage.

He was dancing (taunting), but the pigs completely ignored it. I can't tell if that was an isolated incident, because I don't play Willow much, and people don't tend to play as her.

BiddoBams Posted October 24, 2017 Share Posted October 24, 2017 Just now, Master Wolf said: He was dancing (taunting), but the pigs completely ignored it. I can't tell if that was an isolated incident, because I don't play Willow much, and people don't tend to play as her. Ahh, I see. My friend has played Willow lots, and I only see the bear doing any work half the time before it somehow just dies a few moments later. I assume it maybe only draws aggro from the monster that attacked Willow instead of taunting every nearby mob? I'll have to look into more, but I already feel like its not the most useful of things sadly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riotraze Posted October 24, 2017 Share Posted October 24, 2017 ^ I've noticed this happening too. It got to the point where I just sort of ignored Bernie's existence altogether. But oh my gosh this event is amazing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaptainFun Posted October 24, 2017 Share Posted October 24, 2017 So what are the new character perks? Haven't gotten around to playing yet. EDIT: NVM just found them. Interesting take on the characters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Donke60 Posted October 24, 2017 Share Posted October 24, 2017 Â The changes I say are interesting not what I an many people thought would happen. I will say i was sad that Wes didin't become a trapper but I'm happy you put some power in him. Power Mime Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riotraze Posted October 24, 2017 Share Posted October 24, 2017 This soundtrack is amazing. Any chance we'll ever see an official release of the DST-specific stuff? I've noticed there seems to be an issue of AFK players joining the servers and then preventing them from ever actually commencing; it'd be great to have a timeout so the same player can't keep a server stuck forever.

PuffinBy Posted October 24, 2017 Share Posted October 24, 2017 I'm a little confused. Are all forge servers provided by Klei? Some of my friends say when you choose "custom", you start a server from your own computer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can start a new server, and set it to steam group, password etc, but it'll be hosted on a Klei server, so noone of you will have host rights.

My computer is always able to handle the game beautifuly, although it's a beefy PC built with parts made for games. I'm sure there's going to be a way to make the effects less flashier for potatoes, probably a "low graphics" option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zeklo Posted October 24, 2017 Share Posted October 24, 2017 Clicking on a dupe item to unweave into spool only to have the remaining one equipped can be annoying. Some sort of confirmation would be nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dezgasting Posted October 24, 2017 Share Posted October 24, 2017 The most cool things drop during the beta... That's painful lol But to the point... I think The Forge is too huge event for only 3 weeks excluding beta days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rellimarual Posted October 24, 2017 Share Posted October 24, 2017 I’m really happy that so many folks love this event and are having so much fun with it. Big fights are just not my thing, though, and one of the reasons I fell in love with DS is that it didn’t depend on combat like other games. So while it’s great that fight buffs are getting their wish, I hope that sometime in the future there will be events or DLCs or whatever that add different kinds of content and challenges. It’s very cool that Hamlet was announced at the same time (and that SW got a beta update)so that the rest of us have something to look forward to!

Werecrowe Posted October 24, 2017 Share Posted October 24, 2017 Sorry if this has been asked before, but does anyone know if the skins that drop during the Forge event (Warrior skin sets) will be available to use in normal DST after the event ends? I know that any skins you get in the beta will disappear when the Forge goes live, but I was just curious if I'll be able to use the Warrior skins in non-Forge gameplay during and after the event.  Thanks!

ShadowDuelist Posted October 24, 2017 Share Posted October 24, 2017 17 hours ago, Annatictac said: Maybe I just don't know how to use him, but I think Maxwell is really underpowered. He starts off with a petrification book, which at first seemed nice, but considering he has really low health and enemies break free after hitting them once, you really can't get any any damage in until after you get a staff (If you get one). Not only that, but Wickerbottom seems to start with the book as well, and has perks that boost its effects. Maxwell's perk is his shadow creature attack, which makes him seem kind of like a glass cannon, but you can't ever really process the ability unless you get a staff or try to melee with the book, which is a terrible idea because of his low health and melee attacks with books seem slower than other weapons. At first I thought this same thing, until I was able to grab the fire staff...  I don't know the exact numbers in the code but it seems that you have to have dealt a specific amount of damage to a single enemy for the duelists to proc, and since the fire staff deals an average of 25 damage (which for the forge its pretty high) Duelists appear and attack that enemy every 5 or 6 hits, dealing 120 extra damage each time. Paired with the fire staff's high damage, and using the cataclysm spell now and then, makes Maxwell one of the best (if not the best) damage dealer of the forge. He is the very basic definition of a glass cannon. I believe his role during the first waves before the fire staff is available, is just crowd control, petrifying groups of enemies, and perhaps using the healing staff if no other healer is present. Once the fire staff appears, he's the main damage dealer (if you can stay alive that is) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks like you can use Challenger skins (basically default with some war paint) outside the Forge, so I'd assume it same goes for Warrior skins.

I was using Wicker not too long ago and I was hitting around 390 on a Boarilla with damaged armor by using the special of the fire staff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zeklo Posted October 24, 2017 Share Posted October 24, 2017 Oh another thing I've noticed is that chat emoticons have a little "reminder" when you type part of them. You can scroll through them and it'll highlight them, but whenever I try to click enter to do what I'd assume to be an "auto-fill" it just puts my incomplete message in chat. Not sure if I'm doing something wrong or if it's misleading—or maybe its not misleading and I'm the only one x_x. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
