New Item Suggestions?

Postby Floofins » Thu Oct 01, 2015 5:56 pm

So there's a lot you can make in Haven and Hearth, but there are two really obvious items that I thought should be in the game, but aren't.

  • Poppies finally have more of a use now since they're curiosities, but what about a flower crown? Maybe 3-5 poppies and a piece of string? You could possibly involve dandelions, too? It probably wouldn't provide any stats, but hey, laurel wreaths are useless and they're still in the game! I WANT TO BE A MAJESTIC HIPSTER PRINCESS, DAMN IT!
  • You put conkers in the game and didn't give us the option of making... well, conkers? For reference, I mean these:

    It's a traditional game where you basically try to smash the other person's conker to pieces in order to win. It could be a curiosity, in the toy category. The recipe seems pretty obvious: 2 Conkers, 2 pieces of string?

I'd love to hear any ideas other people have had for items.

I like those ideas. I'd even go further and ask for a Toga + Some flowers = Flower Dress

I'd love to see juices, too!

Makes me wonder if it would be possible to implement some kind of 'ritual' thing (like the Symbel) but that's a whole new idea that just came in and I guess I should make a separate topic for it :D

Huzzah!
This is probably a different topic entirely, but if we're going to have vanity items (like the laurels, the hypothetical flower crown, etc) in the game, perhaps we should be allowed vanity equipment slots? Terraria's equipment/vanity system is simple and works well: You put your stat equipment in equipment slots, and put the equipment you like on a visual level in the vanity slots. Sure, I can equip two shirts, but at the end of the day I'm going to value stat increases far more than looking pretty.

It would allow players a lot more freedom in terms of customizing their appearance, and thus there would be a lot more variety in what people look like, which would be fun!

Although I love cosmetics and vanity items, I'm afraid Haven is the type of game where it's kind of a matter of fairness to be able to identify what a stranger is wearing, etc... :P
Imagine how many people would abuse of other's goodwill by hiding plate armor under vanity nettle shirts and pretending to be a noob in need of food? :P

But I completely agree that a lot of vanity items should be added for daily village/claim life :D

It is important to know that the person with the flower crown is not using a dhelm under it, therefore the vanity system as it works in terraria would not work here.

Also, as a suggestion, why can´t we eat toad on a stick? I have eaten toad irl, it tastes like chicken.

I find it weird someone would be willing to eat a rat but not a toad since they are both edible and rats spread diseases. :ugeek:

Ohhh, fair point. I hadn't thought of that.
YEAH and what about frog's legs? It would give frogs and toads a purpose other than some easy LP.
