Preemptive "Git Gud, stay out of plains, block and parry Deathsquitos, stop making my hard challenging game for easy casuals".
Right, so, with that out of the way, I'd like to open up a discussion about how Valheim handles it's application of Damage, with a special note on how the Plains is an absurdly hostile environment, without even setting foot on it.
Valheim has 3 Damage types, and Tool Damage, which allows different interactions when, say:
Which promotes a varied approach and a toolkit. Good, yes?
All of this just kind of… flies out the window, when it comes to the Plains. Something I thought would have occurred to someone after a year, but I guess not.
Fulings can be a part of this, especially with higher star tiers just smashing through your fortifications, but my main problem is how, apparently, Deathsquitos stinging buildings, boats, what have you, damage them as though they were creature entities. I guess they just… actually swing with that much force? Are their stingers so razor sharp that they behave like nanofiber thin blades? Do their innards spit hyper superacid?
Once the accidental death spiral starts, all your junk may as well be forefeit. Unless you're okay with enabling god mode to quickly run over and grab your gear, you've essentially been told to eat shit and start your gear collection over, and probably whatever boat you were on was lost at sea, if not destroyed due to a flying buzzboi, who you can't actually outrun, and have FAR too sensitive detection abilities. It's like they're not natural creatures, but instead video game hard enemies because it has to be hard.
You COULD just do a naked mad dash through the territory, grab your gear if it's on land, and get out, but the slightest slip up in your defenseless, low HP state ( You're running stamina to get this over with, no? ) means you do it again.
Hope you set up a portal beforehand, or have some kind of nearby spawn.
That said, I can see a few reasonable alterations that keep Deathsquitos, Deathsquitos, while not making the Plains a stupid meat grinder masquerading as a natural environment.
TL;DR:
Not being able to craft them sucks. Especially when everyone I talk to about it…
