      charlie wouldn't hesitate. she has in-file quotes in response to him and she doesn't take what he did to her (and everyone else) lightly. plus, it would be repetative. winona already gets that perk and it's one of the things that makes her unique. as a maxwell main, i feel like it'd be fair if charlie killed him FASTER than everyone else.

    • @POOH_LY
      @POOH_LY 5 років тому +5

      I haved tried both DS and DST version, and I would say that DST version is ,in fact, better. While having +20 sanity per min seems really good on paper, but it makes sanity managing a whole lot harder. Staying insane is a pain in the ass. I have to wear dark sword and armor and eat green mushrrom, yet killing one nightmare creature and I am sane again.
      Also, the fact that the shadow minions only last for 2.5 days doesn't make me want to even summon them because they are not really great at gathering resources or fighting. However, his DS version still has something that I like: He can summon up to three fighters, and summoning them cost HP instead of tools. His minions are universal. (In my opinion, HP regening is much easier.) With that being said, I think Klei has planned to have every characters refreshed this year, so I hope that after the refresh(if he ever gets one), Max would be even better than both DS and DST version.

You dont need to be insane for more than several dozen nightmare creatures to start following you around before disintegrating into several stacks of nightmare fuel with you just needing to run them around until the nightmare phase ends. The ruins I farm drop 2-3 stacks of nightmare fuel per phase and i didnt even get a good ruins spawn.

      The only issue I have with DS Maxwell is that his puppets don't work automatically. Although as a duelists they are far superior to those we have in DST, and starting off with night armor and dark sword is insanely powerful, I still don't like that he has to actually mine or chop stuff instead of just watching his clones do that for him

    I wonder about the lore implications of Maxwell being Wendy's uncle. It's my theory that Maxwell lures people to the constant to create insanity, AKA nightmare fuel. When he builds up enough, it could hopefully destroy the constant and end the mess that the ancients started. I'll have to look into wendy's lore some and see if Maxwell did indeed lure her as well, and if he regretted it. It would help answer some questions.

    Shadow Duelists aren't bad. Your supposed to assist them in the fight and either take the aggro against a single boss monster, or use your duelists as meat shields against swarms of enemies while you pick them off one by one before they reach them. I took out a medium sized Beefalo herd with their help, and that was in Regular Don't Starve, where the duelists don't have their natural regen and don't even try to kite.

      You can wear armor though and hold out for much longer, they can't. Although seeing as we can give helmets to some mobs, it would be cool to have a shadow helmet to match the suit and sword (why isn't there one?!) and be able to give it to the duelists.

    • @steights78
      @steights78 4 роки тому

      There are plenty of ways to farm nightmare fuel, you just have to be creative. The ruins are an easy mid-late game choice, during the nightmare cycle, shadow creatures spawn and aggro regardless of sanity. Besides this, you could craft 2 Duelists + 1 other shadow guy, which leaves you at 20% sanity (AKA: always insane).
      Even simpler, you can collect Green Mushrooms. Just 4 uncooked Green Caps bring Maxwell to 0 sanity (even fewer are needed if you happen to have one or more Shadow Puppets out). When you defeat a shadow creature (especially a Terrorbeak), you will eventually need to eat another Green Cap to get back to insanity. Repeat for as long as you'd like (the best part is that you can cook the green caps if you need to go sane quickly, like if a seasonable boss shows up at an inopportune time). I like to gather some Blue Mushrooms before I farm this way as well, because they are great healing *and* will help keep you insane :)
