So the post Winona confirmed perks , had a lot of people talking about how they hate the new character and how they could make it better.
And there were some users that came up with some really good ideas, but as the post is 218 replies long, I thought I'd summarise and make it easier for the devs to see them.
Idea 1 (by Rellimarual): "she turn three stacks of cut grass into 40 rope instantly? That would be great"
Basically, can instantly craft multiple refined items at once (such as rope, boards, cut stone, papyrus, marbles beans).
So for example, 40 logs can instantly be crafted into 10 Boards.
This was, from what I could tell, the most liked idea. It fits with her building character and, unlike the the 0.5 second cut it takes for her to craft (which is made redundant with characters like Maxwell and Woodie, who can level forests in seconds) it would actually be a great time saver for base construction.
Idea 2 (many people): She can hack Clockwork Monsters. Either befriending them like pigs or, and this a little bit more out there: her character sits down and uses a controller, becoming idle and vulnerable, and the player plays as a rook, or a bishop, or a knight.
It fits with her engineer character and would actually be a lot of fun.
I also mentioned the idea that she could craft things for less resources, but there were some issues with that.
