Warly's Attack-Buffing Foods.

Prior to Warly's introduction, the only means to raise your attack is to play Wolfgang and to fill your hunger or use one of the two electric weapons. However, Warly brings two new features that add attack: His chili Powder, and the Volt Goat Jelly. The chili powder can be added to any meal to give the eater extra damage to all attacks, while the Volt Goat Jelly adds electric damage to the eater's attacks. While seemingly innocent, these foods can be used to crazy effects, especially with Wolfgang.

Let's look at the numbers:

The chili powder applies a 120% multiplier to any attack. This means a blow dart that deals 100 damage goes up to 120.

The Volt Goat Jelly applies a whopping 250% multiplier to any attack, provided the target is wet as well as adding electric power. This means that blow dart would go from 100 damage to 250 damage. Note that these buffs do not apply to the Morning star or Electric darts, as they are already electric by nature.

Wolfgang with a full belly applies a 200% multiplier, doubling any damage he deals.

The true insanity happens when all these buffs are used together. Since all the buffs are multiplicative, a full Wolfgang that has eaten a spicy Volt Goat Jelly will have a 6X attack multiplier. He can deal a massive 600 damage with one blowdart or 408 damage with one dark sword swing, provided the target is wet. To put that into perspective, that's the same damage as eight Wilsons with tentacle spikes. With wet targets and a dark sword, Wolfgang can kill Dragonfly in just 68 hits and misery Toadstool in 246 hits. He can one-shot warrior spiders, two-shot tentacles, three-shot beefalo and kill Deerclops in 10 hits. 

Is this overpowered? Well... not really.

Remember, the targets have to be wet for the 250% bonus damage to apply. Since water balloons don't make anything wet except for players and for some reason Dragonfly, spring is really the only time mobs are consistently wet. Additionally, the Volt Goat Jelly requires a Volt Goat Horn to cook, making it difficult to mass-produce. While the power level of these new foods is off the charts, achieving them requires jumping through some serious hoops.
