animals buffed way too much, back to world 8

[tyrtix]

And we're again at the point that a player can only put up a palisade, step in his base, and never move from it for fear beign killed every time.
In the last three days, i was regularly ko'ed 2,3 and 1 time each day, healing a bit between them. Why? Because you cannot overrun certain animals (like wolverines) and if they come into your direction, they will aggro you and you can't do anything to limit damage or run for your life, same for wolves, wich yesterday spawned 30 tiles from me, spreaded in every direction faster than my 3 speed in forest, aggroed me, left me with 11 hhp.
Today, a BOAR aggroed me, i run off a cliff, get stuck in it, got nearly killed again, 15 hhp, and i was 40 tiles away from my place.
I like the game, but dammit if it needs a LOT of polishing in these things, including healing characters: some wounds simply cannot be healed (concussion?) at this time, and you can only leave the toon in a bed healing for 2-3 days eventually, while the small bugs like getting stuck in places, animals that break your boat because it's the only hitbox they can reach, or way too many animals around wich then you cannot get around and their speed won't let you save your skin in any way, including getting into a mound.
Too much, tone it down before we get paranoid again and NEVER get out of our places.

Btw, 51 damage fell slash from a boar in a SINGLE, last hit, is way too much too. How we're supposed to kill an animal like that without using a bow?

Develop your character and his equipment more.
You can make it.

Past worlds you would have had to reroll by now with that many close encounters.

keep seeing people answering to those things with irrelevant answers. Useful as an elbow on the forehead.

animals being a joke was one of the main things which was ruining the game. they're still easy now, just harder than they were.
shit best not be nerfed after we finally got '''''''''''somewhat''''''''' threatening animals back. its not a survival game if nothing can kill you besides other players.

The problem is you're making a series of very poor decisions without realizing it. Sure there are unlucky breaks but when you notice a dangerous animal and don't give them a wide breadth you're playing a game of high stakes low reward.

I've been in the same "everything is awful and it's not my fault" boat in the past. Just relax and come back later. A string of shitty luck because you plopped down in a forest full of hostile animals instead of a grassland chicken city. Think of it as getting all this shit out of the way early, I'm sure at some point once your hunting-capable you'll be thinking "WHERE ARE ALL THESE BASTARDS NOW THAT I CAN TAKE THEM ON?"

Have you considered raising your Unarmed Combat above 1? Using restorations while running away may help also.

Have you considered read the rest of the post? should be what most people here should do: you cannot run, you cannot defend, you cannot evade anything if you get stuck in bugs, no matter how good you're at playing.
I don't ask for a nerf of the animals (while seriously, i'd like to see those who were able to beat boars in hand to hand since they got the armor bonus...), but maybe they can aggro a bit less times, and maybe devs should really fix those shitty bugs before making the animals such a threat.

I wasn't going to reply but you're a real jerk.
So here's my answer to you : The problem isn't the game itself but you , you suck.
90% of your "problems " could have been avoided easily.
Git gud
