The one and only function of the moon pedestal in terms of staffs is to just turn the star caller's staff into the moon caller's staff. But you can put fire staffs and ice staffs in there too, it just doesn't do anything? Why is this a thing that you can do if nothing happens?

Well, this poll should have been made a week ago. I have mixed feelings about the recent update and, as I see, a bunch of users have too. Here we will know quantitatively what's the opinion of the fanbase. Dmg numbers can be tweaked either way, but which mechanic should the devs focus on?  

Discussion about it ensue

Today I've started (hosted) a solo game as Wendy and my fps started a massive drop 5 secs after I entered the world. I have already disabled all mods and doesn't worked. Also started (hosted) a new world as other character and the fps kept fixed in 60. I've joined another players servers as Wendy and the fps kept fixed in 60 as well. 

Does anyone else having the same problem? 

Hey everyone! My love for designing is thriving and I've been feeling inspired lately and really wanted a place to share some of the things I've been working on. I love making shrines and designs in worlds whether it's big or small, and adding cute little details to them as well. Most of what I do isn't practical and is purely for decoration.

I was originally posting screenshots of my base on this thread: 

But I feel as though my style of basing has evolved into something that cannot be categorized as tidy and I wanted to start a different thread that was for bases/worlds more on the ornamental side like mine. Plus I feel far more comfortable and way less anxious being annoying and posting heaps on my own thread than I do spamming someone else's *nervous laugh* ^-^'

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Here's a few shrines I worked on last month:

Moon Stone Shrine

Don't think I'll ever be able to do the Moon Stone event ever again because I'll never be able to get a pig so perfectly back in that spot like that ahah, worth it.

Klaus Shrine/Arena

We found every Klaus spawner and plugged them with a firepit except this one, now he only ever spawns here and we fight him on the cobble stone bit to the right. This area doubles as a shrine and a fighting arena, I love it ^-^ 

Hi to my lovely Wes @Warlockadamm <3

Easter Bunny Shrine

....just noticed that the treeguard killed the bunny... and smashed the hay wall on the right as well ;( y u do dis

Mandrake Shrine 

This may or may not end up being a Year of the Carrat Shrine... We'll see.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

That's all I'm going to post for now but I'll probably be posting here quite often so yeh ^-^' 

  Webber should be one of the next reworked characters, not because it's necessary, i guess all the necessary reworks were made already, for willow and woodie. This rework is mostly to improve the character, and fit the recent reworked characters, currently webber's best use is for gathering spider resources, by making they fight each other, i think that webber perks should be more related to spider befriending, tamed spiders are more like worse pigmans, besides the fact of being able to tame more than 1 spider at once, i think that his rework could make his spider befriending perks more close to wurt's perks related to other merms.
  Webber would tame spiders in the same way, but there could be a way of making they more loyal to webber, and don't attack any of webber allies, being either non webber players and non spider pets, and walls, there would also be a limit for the army of spiders he could bring along, which would still be a large number, close to 10 spiders at once, he can also craft a special spider nest for his tamed spiders, where they would stay when not coming along him, and he would be able to craft special items to promote his spiders to special classes:
-Warrior: The most offensive class, has higher damage and health than regular spiders, and can lunge at enemies, he'll also temporarily boost nearby spiders and webber
-Ranger: able to split silk at enemies that deals damage from a further distance, similar to spitters, he'll switch to a regular spider attack once the target gets close
-Healer: eventually heals nearby spiders and webber a small amount, with a cooldown between each heal
-Stealth: disguises itself as a small boulder to lose aggro, until it reveals itself to deal a surprise lunge attack, that deals high damage at once, and applies a temporary debuff to the target
  There can only be a limited number of spider with each role for each spider army, another idea is that webber could be able to upgrade it's nest, each upgrade level would make him able to have more spiders in his army, the max level spawns his own spider queen, that is friendly to anything that webber is friend of aswell, bringing her food will instantly generate another tamed spider, webber could also have the ability to gather silk from spiders nests using a razor, but it takes a time before being able to shear the same nest again, spiders could also bring him presents, starting once his nest reaches lvl 2, and getting better for each level after it, most times the presents would be spider drops, such as silk and spider gland, but they can also bring random monster and creature loot, such as meat, monster meat and non edible loot, rarely being something valuable. the disadvantages of this rework is that webber would no longer be able to tame spiders more loyal to their own nest, being spiders from level 2 and 3 nests, or following a wild spider queen, only if their nest or queen gets destroyed.
  I think that i wrote enough already, feel free to comment any thoughts about my suggestion, and i hope dst devs could at least check this, webber is possibly the next in the rework line, i think that a rework for wess would be great aswell, i don't like the idea of a challenge character, in single player ds it makes sense, but if any player chooses wess in dst, it'll only difficult for their teamates, and they'll have to immediatelly kick him, wanting or not, unless if they want a slave, i'm still planning ideas for his rework and in the future i'll make it a post, and instead there should be a challenge mode for don't starve together.

Hi, I just discovered the klei rewards and I claimed Amazing Snowball Juggler Portrait, Amazing Snowball Juggler and World's Greatest Big Top Tent  but when i go ingame nothing happens, i can change frame or my icon cause they dont show although in klei web it says "succesfully redeemed" so am I missing something? Is there another step i have to go through?  Thanks for the help!

• Fixed a crash when Abigail kills an Eye Plant.
• The Telltale Heart is now craftable in wilderness mode to allow Wendy to craft Spectral Cure-All elixirs.
• Surf 'n' Turf, Seafood Gumbo, and California Roll are now displayed in the Portable Seasoning Station
• Improved some translations

So guys you probably know what this will be about its the Wendy refresh. Look when the rework came out about Wendy I wasn't jumping up and down about it either.

However I accepted that these were big changes and I needed take the time to learn what these changes actually meant for the character and her playstyle. Abigail's dmg being tied to Wendy's health gave her alot of new uses and with the new tracking system I was able to accomplish tasks with Abby I'd never thought possible before. I've managed to kill Dragonfly, Ancient Guardian and toadstool with Abby by my side dishing out her dps the whole time. And I'm not a great player so the mechanics I was using were nothing different than if you had to solo the boss as any other character. The only difference ofc was hp management - keeping my hp below 50 at all times was an enjoyable mechanic and, let's be honest, with any boss you fight you are probably going to bring dem honey hams with you. So what's the difference?

I've seen a number of people demand that Abigail needs to be able to fight normal giants like Deerclops or Bearger to make it easier for newer players... But why? Abby needs to have weaknesses just like any other character in the game - some are suited for fights better than others. Isn't it part of the learning curve of the character to know that Abby cant win fights against big monsters that have big AoE? And isn't it also part of the learning curve to know when it's a good time to summon Abby or not like when a menacing Deerclops is looming around the corner...

That being said we don't have glass cannon Wendy anymore guys and I think we lost a good thing. I was finding so many extra uses for Abby and that was only within a week! I'm certain if we were a little more patient many people more creative than myself would have found all sorts of cheese/tactics and it would have been awesome! And as for the tonics yes we know they weren't great but they could have been gradually tweaked as we got to learn the character!

So please guys be patient with this refresh, be creative, try stress testing it and after some time you can deliver really detailed feedback and we'll be closer to perfecting our dear beloved sisters!

For anyone curious, if I'm allowed.... here are two links to quickly demonstrate the strats I was using for the bosses. Its the same kiting dodge you would do as any character facing Dragonfly and as for toadstool, you would ideally move to the side without boomshrooms anyway even if Abby wasn't there

Extracted PS4's version of my save data. (via Jailbreak)
Use Notepad to view or Hex Editor.
I tried to see if it was possible to modify but always came with a corrupted file.
It would be pretty neat if it were possible to modify them to include some of the stuff PC players are capable of! 
We could only dream....

I found it pretty interesting btw.

Today we have our next character refresh! As usual we also have some new skins and some new streaming drops. But we also have a little bit of studio news and a small teaser for the next content update. Enjoy!

Wendy clutches tightly to the memory of her twin sister, Abigail. Some days, it’s almost as if she never left…

Even from the afterlife, Abigail never stopped looking out for Wendy - and now Wendy has discovered how to return the favor. Her affinity with the supernatural has led her to the mysterious practice of Ectoherbology, allowing her to create haunting elixirs to aid her sister beyond the veil and make their bond stronger than ever before.

Here are some of the details:

• Wendy carries a flower that can summon her sister Abigail's spirit. 
• Abigail's spirit gets stronger over time but starts over if she is destroyed.
• Abigail's might is tied to Wendy's health, making her fight harder while Wendy is weak. 
• Abigail's attack besets her opponents with ghostly petals for a short period of time, increasing its damage received from all other damage sources. Wendy is able to take advantage of this and will deal substantially more damage.
• Abigail creates a shield after being hit, preventing her from taking subsequent damage for a short period of time.
• Wendy can ask Abigail to stay close to her or roam more free via Abigail's flower.
• Wendy does not lose sanity due to ghosts.
• Pipspooks can now be found roaming around gravestones.
• Wendy can commune with Pipspooks to help them find peace in exchange for Mourning Glory.
• Wendy can use Mourning Glory in her Ectoherbology crafting tab to help her sister's spirit in various ways.
• Wendy has reduced damage in combat, but suffers less sanity drain from auras and the dark.  

New skin sets available

We have also added new skin packs for purchase. The Wendy Deluxe Wardrobe contains 5 skins, Wendy's Nostalgic, Guest of Honor, Roseate, Triumphant and Survivor skin sets for $12.99usd. We have also added the Fanciful Chest which includes the Rosy Posy Parasol, Straw Bonnet, Shared Armoire, and a set of Abigail's flower skins for $3.99usd.

Wendy's previous weaveable skin sets (hallowed nights, magmatic, victorian, snowfallen, and gladiator) are also on sale for 50% off for the next two weeks!. 

New Streaming Drops!

We are adding the Crystallized Cabinet to the Crystalline collection. For more information on streaming drops and how to get them, check out our support topic here. 

Studio Note:

Just a quick note regarding the team at Klei Entertainment. As noted previously, everybody at Klei Entertainment is working from home due to the Covid-19 outbreak.

Many of us have been working especially hard to help maintain operations as we all move out of the office and into our homes and with everything being done online, extra time must be spent in organizing conversations and trying to maintain communication. As some of you may know, we have a very open office and we are almost always in contact with each other as we go about our days. Some of us work across multiple teams and that work has become a bit more challenging for everybody.  

That being said, at this time the transition has not caused any major disruption in our operations, but it would be overly optimistic to expect that we won't have any delays at all. We're going to have to be especially mindful about this in the coming weeks and make sure we don't take on too much work so we can keep things running smoothly. 

Likely, you won't see any real difference in what we deliver until after the next big update as we are already well underway with that and will be wrapping up the bulk of that work soon. But hopefully you won't see much change at all. We'll do our best and we'll let you know if/when we start seeing anything changing.

And Finally!

If everything goes according to plan we expect the next update to be toward the end of April with the next Return of Them Content update, "She Sells Seashells". Here's a bit of a teaser of what's to come. We'll have more info shortly before release!

We also have a small surprise for you next month as well and we'll let you know about that when it's ready. 

That's it for now, we hope you all enjoy the new update and stay safe out there.

Update 400152 - 03/19/2020
Changes:

• Wendy has been refreshed. Key changes:
  • Wendy carries a flower that can summon her sister Abigail's spirit.
  • Abigail's spirit gets stronger over time but starts over if she is destroyed.
  • Wendy can craft the Sisturn to increase the rate that Abigail's spirit strengthens.    
  • Abigail's attack besets her opponents with ghostly petals for a short period of time, increasing its damage received from all other damage sources. Wendy is able to take advantage of this and will deal substantially more damage.
  • Abigail creates a shield after being hit, preventing her from taking subsequent damage for a short period of time.
  • Wendy can ask Abigail to stay close to her or roam more free via Abigail's flower.

  • Abigail's damage is affected by the number of enemies she is fighting, allowing her to be effective against a single enemy but at her best when fighting a crowd.
• Added optional word filter to public server listing.

For a while now, i've been wondering why certain people chooses certain character to play as or even what brought them to go to that character in the first place. Whether it is because of gameplay, character personnality, there appearance or for what ever other reasons, we all have our own little story of how we got to our main. This thread is for general discussion with others and to bring out the best of your dst experience and to show feedbacks to others that might still be in the look out to have a main character to play as. Below i'll show an example of what i would think would be proper to share your stories to not crowd up the whole thread. (simply put your stories in spoilers, normal discussion can be held outside of spoilers with no problem). Also i can't stress this enough but this thread is not for argumentation. Please stay comprehensive towards one another origin.

My ds\dst origins

Why This Is My Main

So this is pretty much everything on my part. I really hope to see others story or comments. Have a nice day

Làm thế nào để khắc phục lỗi này?

Tôi đang cố gắng khắc phục lỗi nhận quà từ twich nhưng tôi không thể yêu cầu tôi đăng một liên kết twich khác nhưng tôi chưa liên kết bất kỳ twich nào nhưng tôi thực sự khó chịu về vấn đề này.

A thread like this existed before but I'm afraid it fell deep into the archive, so here is a new one. You can post funny, odd and terrible pictures that you made while playing DST.

Here are some from my collection:

Love this one because it looks like as if the third bunny from the right (not counting the bunny behind the hut) is throwing the small bunny.

My dear Wolfgang managed to trap himself while being sane and of course I mocked him by taking a screenshot and weeks later finding myself trapped in this too while being sane.

Wigfrid is able to fish in carpet. Who would have guessed.

I was wondering if anyone on the forums had any ideas for a fun in game competition. Doesn't have to be anything hardcore or whatever. =)

Since these threads keep on poping I figured i might as well make one of my own.

Here's the deal. You might like this rework as a whole or only consider few ideas good. Keep in mind the the idea of reworking characters is to make it so that no character is considered 'way better than the rest'. 

1. Is a machine- Klei loves hiding lots of perks behind a sentace like this so here it is:

-A special crafting tab for Wx. I think that every character having special crafting tabs is a very cool idea because it shows every character bringing a part of themselves into the Constant. What you can craft in this tab will be mentioned later in the post.

-Wx doesn't receive health from food immediately. Instead the healing effect occurs over time simmilar to Jellybeans. This would be a disadvantage when it comes to boss fights, it'd prevent the player from stuffing to Honey Hams and being at full hp. The idea behind is that Wx's chemical engine needs time before it can extract healing properties from food.

-Lighting charges you. Same as now

-Being wet damages you. Simillar to how it works now but the wetter you are the more damage you take

-Every 15-25 days Wx-78 'breaks down'. A special animation plays and a message appears. Wx would then suffer from one of many disadvantages. For example:

• 'OPTICAL SENSORS FAILING'- your field of view is smaller simmilar to when Wagstaff wears protective googles in singleplayer
• 'WALKING JOINTS RUSTED'- reduced movement speed
• 'PROCCCCESSINGGGG Un1T FaIlYRE'- constant sanity drain

In order to stop these debuffs you'd need to craft a special item, y'know to replace the ones that are broken down. Yes, you'd craft them in that special crafting tab. Every item would have different crafting recipe but they'd all circle around items like gold, rocks, maybe gears. After fixing yourself maybe you'd receive a slight boost to whatever you've fixed

2. Not a picky eater-  This perk imo is good enough and doesn't need changing

3. Can upgrade themselves- Eating gears upgrades your stats. This is probably Wx's main advantage and also the reason why they're so op right now. I have an idea how to make that less op. Upgrades are shown differently on your stats, for example half of you health is a normal red heart and the second half is a mechanical heart. Same for brain and stomach. You now have your regular stats and the upgraded stats. The idea behind this is that these upgrades are not fully compatible with Wx-78 and they have to do things a bit differently to fill these stats.

Okay that might sound confusing so here's an example: You eat some meatballs, you fill your hunger only halfway through even tho it should be full. That's because you've filled your regular hunger. Hunger from the upgrades takes different food to fill up.  Same with sanity and health. As you upgrade yourself your regular stats slowly grow so that when you're fully upgrade you end up with 50% regular stats and 50% upgraded stats. 

Now, how exactly do you fill up those upgraded stats. For example in your crafting tab you'd be able to craft a special 'seasoning' which you can use on a food to make it fill up your upgraded hunger. A special hat which fills up your upgraded sanity. A special food which lets you heal up your upgraded health.

The general idea of this rework would be to still keep Wx-78 as a stats tank but for a price of maintaining yourself. 

I've just tried switching to using an Eggs box controller, when ever I come across anything in the world, I get a really annoying popup that tells me the options I can make on the item, like "Inspect" & "Pick".  I'd really like to turn this off, as it's just annoying IMO, but I just can't find an option to do this.

This is just a survey of a subject I came to think of while reminiscing how I first found Don't Starve (which for those who are curious, was via the Yogscast on Youtube way back in 2012). Feel free to share your anecdotes regarding how you first discovered the franchise as a whole, old and new players alike.

https://youtu.be/uZRB6h-IKH4

5 beekeeper hats, 30 pierogi, 1 Hambat, 5 spectral cure-all (4 maybe)

Pros: no arena preperation, easy crafts, less then a stack of healing food.

Cons: Active pipspook assisting (in order to get the recipes for 5 spectral cure-all), death of abigail in-battle can lead to failure.

Looks like the wendy abigail rework is quite op

heal yourself only if you can get killed by the bee queen in the next attack but make sure if she will call grumble bees in her next move so you dont die.

make sure abigail has the agro on the grumble bees. heal her at 300 health by applying the spectral all-cure on the flower or onto herself if she is next to you.

if the bee queen is screaming to boost the grumbles make sure you are attacking the bee queen and abigail being next to you at the same time.

Edit: pasted as link instead because i cant watch it somehow here.

[ENG]: I searched for many topics and found nothing about it, I would like to know if Don't Starve Together allows cross-play between Ps4, Xbox One and PC, thanks for your attention.

[PT-BR]: Eu procurei por muitos tópicos e não achei nada sobre, gostaria de saber se Don't Starve Together permite cross-play entre Ps4, Xbox One e PC, obrigado pela atenção.
