[@TheBeard777]

Golden, I think you're talking full gastro set. Not just one like I mentioned. Also, immune to lightning? How and why on Earth would that make any sense for WX?! 😅

[@darkstone_official_2427]

I think this is amazing. It gives players far more customizability with the character and lets them decide what they want to spec more points into. Or you could just mass produce the required circuits and change them based on the task at hand. Like maximum health for tanking combat, light/night vision and sanity for exploring the caves, or hunger for exploring. Personally that's how I'd use them. I wouldn't really bother with movement speed unless I was exploring early game or needed it for a boss fight where speed is key.

You'll need to recharge over and over and over again though. Remember that!

[@Yatagurusu]

[@KitzenVonCatzen1134]

what if eating gears gave you more, maybe up to 10? maybe thats too much... i was originally going to say what if there was a circuit that gave you more slots but that kinda defeats the purpose. if this isnt added, someone should make a mod of it! i certainly cant i have no idea how to code stuff

[@frost_angel7251]

I think the same, 6 is a bit too little to me it would be nice if it was 8 instead or perhaps 10

[@spectacularsceptile3879]

@@frost_angel7251 i think keeping it at 6 but reducing the requirements is my preference. shooting it up to 8 means you could do somn like 3 accel circuts and 1 hp circut which just sounds kind of... too much objectively better than 90% of characters for my tastes? i think the real problem is the utility centered circuits (the refrigeration, sanity, light stuff, anti freeze, etc ones) take up MORE slots in general than stuff like speed and hp which is just dumb. right now, you'll probably rarely use those and you'll greatly miss the speed sacrifice. i think those should be brought down to 1 slot or 2 and then it'd feel much better.

So the Chorusbox Circuit makes you into Glomer for sanity when you want.

[@1FrogOvH1]

I love this rework. In fact this may be the best one Klei has released this far. It's simple, but effective and makes WX an actually interesting character. Of course some tweaks are needed, like some of the circuits need to be better, him losing charges when removing his circuits needs to be tweaked a little and I think lightning needs to charge him fully, but maybe have some sort of drawback (like dealing a lot of damage to him). Overall, this is pretty solid already. I can't wait to see how it'll evolve from here!

[@OldManJenkins985]

few notes on some of the upgrades the dronemaster circuit also increases your max sanity to what looks like 350 based on the video (I'm not gonna bother to check whether its 340 or 350 right now) with both circuits I'm not sure on the cooling circuit since I didn't test it but the heating circuit does actually keep you warm enough to survive even in the dead of winter its just that you'll constantly be on the edge of freezing at 0 degrees but I feel that's a fair trade for 3 whole extra slots (this actually kinda reminds me of Wagstaff where if you want to be optimal you wear the Fryfocals since its infinite goggles just with an orange tint you have to deal with) I'll update this post if I find anything more or fix what I said here

[@TheBeard777]

Thanks friend but already ahead of ya... kzbin.info/www/bejne/q5XYd2ZjrcqNhrs

[@dr.brownies]

I'm no WX78 main so I can't say I've had much experience with the guy before all this, but I was pretty well aware of how strong he could become with eating gears and whatnot. But I hated that system because I'm a coward that never touches the ruins, so I always spent gears on ice boxes and flingos to be most effective with them. So this new update shifting from that mechanic (mostly) makes this character a thousand times more interesting to me. And the whole "DIY WX" concept is an incredibly fascinating step forward for both this character and the game itself. This was an incredibly good move by Klei. A few notes on all this though would be to change the effectiveness of lightning when it comes to charges and stuff. That system generally needs a bit of tweaking, but I'm glad that they tried something new and I hope that with more player feedback theyll be able to perfect it more.

[@TheBeard777]

We definitely need an increase to how effective some "charge stations" are, yes!

[@rubles88alvarez83]

Think of the potential: start the game with speed booster 1.0, switch to moggle booster and sanity booster and health 1.0, ruins rush, swap sanity with speed 2.0, snowball effect towards decimating the guardian. This could be game breaking if enough ruins rushers do this.

[@TheBeard777]

Moggles without moggles meaning free head slots and practically infinite light is, well, broken. Yes. 😅

[@JustMe-xc7fq]

@@TheBeard777 I get that it's cheaper, but how does the moggles circuit take less charges than the light circuit. I think it should be swapped or even better reduce the durability of the moggles circuit and make it so that it requires glowberries. It's still pretty broken, but I like the idea of it.

[@are0us913]

Not a bad start. I do think they should alter some of them and add more tiers to the circuits to allow for a bit more customization. Scanning friendly mobs gives circuits that take 4-6 slots. Scanning aggressive mobs give 2-4 and big bads give 1-2 but always required the bosses rare drop or rare gems and Take much longer to scan. Each tier offers a bit more to stats or effect. (T1 25hp, t2 50, t3 100). I do feel like they will need the moggles one to slowly drain electricity, but still function as long as wx has power. All n all, a very interesting update but I feel bad for new players with him as he seems more complicated.

[@TheBeard777]

It's a great launching point, yes. Solid foundation as they say!

@@davimendespimentel6849 the problem with gear-eating was that in open server multiplayer WX was a hated character as they might eat 15 gears and quit after 20 minutes, never to be seen again. Multiply that by the amount of WX players joining and the world will be starved of gears. So I think that WX should not upgrade with them, as no other character is required to destroy such valuable items to be able to play well.

@@TheBeard777 I didn´t test it that much and i don´t wanna say something wrong, but i noticed that when my hunger was 80% or above the meter actually charged quicker, but then when it dropped to like 40 hunger i saw the arrows going up much much slower, similarly to Wolfgang(more hunger=less mightines drain) but in Wx´s case its more hunger=quicker recharging.

[@lime6280]

Also the Refrigerant circuit is actually cooling you down but not in a way as the Thermal circuit is warming you, in order to cool yourself down you have to have a thermal stone in your inventory(because you are basicly a fridge with the "refrigerant" circuit) so you cool the thermal stone and that cools you.

Useless over day 100? What about the bee queens sanity regen or the crab King idk mabye your friends getting mauled by shadows you use the crab king circuit and ta da make them run for a couple minutes and stay with them untill they have high enough sanity to not be bothered by shadows (the running is so the shadows don't get to them) And bee queen its just nice for something like using dark sword or night lights and if you have 3 bee quen circuits mabye even nightmare armour (I doubt you can do all 3 at once I mean nightmare armour only takes sanity when you get hit so you could probably use it with dark sword as long as your not getting hit a bunch although its probably more worth it to just use 1 bee queen circuit and then Hardy 2.0 circuits and not use nightmare armour cause there's better armour out there that doesn't take away sanity so) so you sure they (excluding night vision and Hardy 2.0) are all "worthless"

[@rolay7730]

I know having the health, hunger, and sanity be that high was too much, but now there is almost no reason to upgrade hunger or sanity. I think they should add more upgrade slots. Three dedicated to hunger, health, and sanity. But you can either upgrade them as a permanent buff or replace them to give yourself even lower than base stats for something. So the regeneration one would take up the dedicated health slot, and you would need to use the normal slots for more max HP. The music box bulb could cut WX's normal sanity in half. The thermal circuit could replace hunger. Usually, thermal protection drains hunger in mods, but this would drain max hunger. Which I think is interesting.

[@TheBeard777]

9 charge slots? 🤔

[@rolay7730]

​@@TheBeard777 That does seem like a lot, but as I said, the dedicated charge slots would leave him with lower stats if they are removed. So he would start off with weak bulbs in those three slots that give him his current stats. Then he could upgrade them for a boost to his base stats or remove them for a different buff related to the stat. So you could have lower than normal base hunger and the heating bulb in that slot. I chose that slot because hunger and heat are usually related. So it might be interesting to limit hunger rather than just drain it for heat. Either way, you can't have all 9 slots dedicated to one stat. Also, it would make wetness even more punishing because even his base stats would be lowered after a while.

I agree. I don’t think it’s enough but it’s such a good concept. Right now I prefer the gear consumption system more because you aren’t really “limited” to what you can upgrade. Plus constantly having to switch out upgrades because you don’t have any slots seems like it could get really obnoxious.

If they just make all his starting stats 75, he will be perfect. You can’t lie. This update is way too strong right now, but if he had 75 of each stat, with one health, hunger, and sanity circuit all attached to take up his slots, he will still have 150 hunger, 150 sanity, and 225 health which is really good. Having 75 of each stat will also stop him from using only three speed ups because he needs to be careful about his low health.

Even without the durability, players will just follow what the meta is, the best circuits ever, rush to get materials for that circuit and never remove them. Plus, items having durability is kinda what it is in the game. For the most part at least.

Don’t starve has come a long way I’m so happy 😋

[@grandmagunsales2125]

Yo dawg I heard you liked upgrades so here's an upgrade so you can upgrade into an upgrade

[@markangelooraa2307]

My main character is WX-78 when playing solo but as for this remake I think it is useless since clothings, equipment, items and loot drops are enough to sustain a living in the constant. To make this soulless automaton more fearsome is that when WX-78 scans nearby mobs and then defeats it he can copy the ability of that said mods. Like Deerclops if WX-78 scans and kills the boss, he can freeze enemies when hit 5-8 times which defend on the number of circuits. For now his remake is rubbish and must be weaker than Wes. In addition his charges can be a bit hard to utilize since being struck by lightning is not helpful in most cases. Hunger and Changes must be connected together in order to make a balance mechanic.

I would love to see more variation and possibility to get more circuits at once. I love that you can go super duper fast, but at the same time, why would you choose any other upgrade besides the speed one? That one helps you in so many ways it's unbelievable. An obvious choice would be to remove the speed bonus circuit, but that would be a little sad, they should make it so you can get the speed WITH other things, making it so you don't need to sacrifice everything just to be optimal. Just my personal thought, because I want to run fast, but also love the other options (except the max hunger one and cooling one, those are kinda meh...)

[@Crust_Crease]

Hmm. I don't see a lot of players seeking to increase their maximum sanity or hunger? They should make those slow down hunger/sanity loss as well as increase the maximum to make them more worthwhile.

[@keith.U42]

I like the rework but my only problem with it is the durability cost when swapping them out. Its gonna make me use a set that i will rarely change unless i have too

[@TheBeard777]

And it'll likely make folk stick to their favorite circuit set without ever switching.

[@Wh00Where]

Now we only wait for a Wilson rework

[@Oroboruscomp]

That's a really cool update.

[@bigkirbyhj666]

Biggest thing I got from the note.. wurt buff.

[@iknorn9494]

Eating gears should give additional charges

[@brycemcnaughton5171]

I'm sad they are taking the gear upgrades away :*(

[@steveanimations428]

What do you need to craft the pliers and drone?

[@TheBeard777]

You can literally just find that information for yourself when needed. I didn't show it because you spawn with both and both are technically infinite.

[@Angelica-sq9lh]

Beard, are you thinking on talking about the Wurt changes? Also, what is the mod.that you're using to show info? It looks much better than show me :3

[@TheBeard777]

The Wurt changes will likely be the video tomorrow and the mod you are looking for is called, Insight

[@noahwhitesell348]

I ONLY HAVE DST ON THE PS4 AND THE BETA ISNT OUT ON THE PS4 AAAAAAAAHHHHHHH

[@RandomArtist7]

He can be an all rounder

[@TheBeard777]

It'll take him a bit but yes, he can do a whole heck of a lot nowadays. Lots of variety in gameplay after today!

[@dr.science_0177]

I'm pretty that's the intention of it

[@whitesoul1.1.09]

Wow what an great rework !
