![]() ![]() The player should take care when being around flammable objects while using this method, as it can set objects on fire. This can be used when fighting, as it can deal fire damage when close to the opponent. In the base game, Willow can burn flammable items such as logs or grass in her inventory for sanity and warmth. ![]() It isn't hard to accidently start a large fire this way, so be careful if you aren't used to this method. While using her lighter to warm her up, make sure whatever you're lighting isn't too close to other burnable resources. Willow is less dependent on insulation and better able to explore during the winter, compared to most characters. Though this isn't the most efficient use of resources due to the short burn times of most things, it's much faster than building a campfire and doesn't require specific items (except the lighter or a torch). This is a way for the player to stay sane.ĭuring the winter, Willow's lighter and immunity to fire allow her to light almost anything on fire and stand right next to it until it burns out. Willow also can restore sanity by standing next to a fire, even during the night. Willow can make for a very strong start since there is little productivity lost at night with her. She also has a higher exploration potential and resource gathering, which could be considered the most important things to do during the first 10 days. She is capable of scavenging resources all night, foraging for Blue Mushrooms and gives her an advantage for shaving Beefalo with a Razor. Willow can provide probably the most efficient start as of The End of the Beginning update, second only to Wickerbottom as her lighter allows her to travel at night. If it hits 60 or below, she might start a fire at her feet, which could burn up any nearby flammable items.Īlthough Willow is regarded as a beginner character, there are some unique strategies she can pull off. While playing as her, make sure to watch her sanity. These situations are circumstantial and usually only apply to newer players that haven't quite experienced every threat in the game. During these circumstances, Willow's lighter will be an advantage. This can happen for several reasons, like when Night Hands begin stealing the flames of the player's campfire, if Frogs remove the items necessary to make a fire from the player's inventory, or if the player forgets to plan for it. Willow will be of the most use when the player is caught in Night with no source of light, and no way of making any. Again, lightning is unpredictable and this advantage also falls under situational. One advantage to her Fire immunity is that when a lightning strike near the player in an area with combustible objects the player won't have to worry about any damage. It is almost never an obstacle to the player, and when it is, it is almost always subject to an uncommon circumstance, making Willow's Fire immunity bonus situational at best. Spiders, Tentacles, Hounds, and Killer Bees all provide greater threats to the player on the higher survival days than Fire does. Unless the player is immersed in heavy Forest while it is burning, avoiding fire damage is trivial. Even while standing in flames for extended periods, the damage is still negligible if even one piece of Armor is worn.įire simply isn't a threat for the majority of the game. The screen will glow with flames on the bottom providing a visual cue to move in order to avoid damage. When a player is standing in Fire, there is a built in 1-2 second delay before damage is actually calculated. Willow's immunity to Fire damage is negligible at best. However, her lighter is useful to get back to camp if you're close enough to make it back without wasting resources. When more experienced players plan for a day of scavenging away from their camp, they will bring ample Logs and Cut Grass, or ensure they bring an Axe so a Campfire can be made to survive the night without relying on Willow's special lighter. Players that are unaware of the necessity to gather Logs and Cut Grass during the first Day-Night Cycle in order to survive the Grue will be granted access to Willow after surviving a cumulative total of only 8 days as Wilson. She is meant to help new players that may have trouble adapting to the Light mechanics of Don't Starve. This is why she is the first unlockable character. Willow is considered a "beginner/intermediate" character due to the nature of her special item. ![]()
