Wormwood Tweaks

Various Wormwood buffs that you can toggle in settings. The combination of settings I suggest is marked with * in the configurations.

RETRO
- lose sanity chopping burnt trees like in DS, very useful when rushing magic in early game
- green font
- old idle animation
- remove favorite food
- turn off skill tree
- adjust or turn off Photosynthesis, if you want to craft the Bramble Shade Armor but don't like the idea of automatic health regen, which is currently 48 health per day, which is a lot
- turn off the damage boost from the lunar allegiance. The whole Moon vs Shadow antithesis is certainly a clever schema for continuous content updates, but it feels conceptually messy, and certainly so from the point of view of the character who has been DST's Dark Sword factory

BLOOM
- always doing AOE plant talking, with radius depending on the stage of bloom, between 1/4 a tile to 3/4 a tile
- don't have bees follow
- hit harder with bloom, with the same multiplier
- chop faster with bloom with the same multiplier, and craft faster too, and cook faster too
- fine tune the maximum bloom multiplier, up from the default 1.2x to 2x. Hit as hard as Mighty Wolfgang! but with a hunger drain that matches the buff! Once upon a time I suggested 2x, but now I suggest setting this to 1.5x after finally getting over my Wolfgang Complex... (I suggest not doing any Skill Tree Bloom buffs for Bloom, otherwise it becomes a bit OP. It's just a lot more interesting to follow a slow seasonal rhythm without being able to control it with artificial means)

PASSIVES
- pick plant faster or even instantly, I suggest only doing faster because you want to be able to cancel your action when you pick the wrong thing
- don't trigger wasps, mosquitoes and other insects
- resist bramble, cactii & thorns even without bramble armor
- neutrality from deciduous monsters

MORE
- neutrality from Gestalts
- use Compost Wrap as Tree Jam for your Above-Average Tree Trunks
- Craft Anenemies with 1 Bramble Trap + 3 Brightshade Husks + 5 Leafy Meats
- make the Thulecite Club cost less Thulecite. I suggest the setting for 2 Thulecite, but I actually play with the setting at 1 Thulecite..
- increase Wormwood's Burn Time if you're a real epic gamer wormwood main

MAYBE
- right click digging: just Stumps or everything
- revive evergreens into treeguards and deciduous trees into deciduous monsters, with the Amulet or the Telltale Heart
- fertilize plants by hand for free (not recommended)
- lose 5 sanity when digging up turf, just like when digging up stumps, in line with Wormwood's character, but also gain sanity when you place turfs, but this is a bit abusive because you can too easily control Wormwood's sanity with just a pitchfork

FINE-TUNING
- multiply the healing from fertilizers, I suggest playing with this at 1.5x because how in DST tent doesn't actually skip time, this means 12 health per Compost
- also change stats for Bramble Traps and make it cost more Stingers. I suggest making it cost 4 Stingers and having 20 uses. You just get such an excess of stingers in late game
- fine tune the stats for Bramble Husk and change Bramble Husk's recipe back to DS's with bone shards instead of stingers if you want to compensate buffing the durability. I personally recommend doing the bone shard recipe, and buffing the durability up to 750, because the AOE damage definitely worth the 4 bone shards, because it looks like bone shards, and because the armor is an early game item just like bone shards are an early game resource
- increase the durability of the Bramble Shade Armor

July 2024
- finally the log-less crash from the AOE since the SKILL TREE UPDATE
- the speed buff has been capped at 1.3x, regardless of the maximum bloom multiplier you select
