"Thorn in foot" effect should be removed

DO WE REALLY NEED THIS THING?

Whenever my shoes/clogs are destroyed at the same time I got KO'd, I fall on my ass again because of THAT THORNS.
What a shame, he was a good fish. What a rotten way to be filleted.

I've always rather enjoyed this mechanic, even when it was pissing me right the hell off. Frankly, I'd like to see more effects like this, not less. Especially when weather and climate get added (Frostbitten toes anyone? Sunburned shoulders?)

I remember these days fondly, and get to relive them with certain alts. Wouldn't change it for the world.

I'm actually kind of fond of the effect. It introduced me to my first "u r doin it rong" situation, it coupled with boars almost killed me over the first 3 play sessions, see I had no idea you could just make new shoes outta a tree at that point. By the time I set up my first camp I had like 6 HHP left due to generally failing at slavic survival camp. Simple things teach you your limits from time to time. Makes me sort of excited for when/if they add in exposure in the harsh northern Eurasian winter.

The world should be more dangerous, not less. You'll never have thorn in foot again once you get somewhere anyways.

If the effect creates a demand for something - getting sunburns creating a demand for aloe vera, for instance - then it's a good thing, regardless of what the WoWtards think.
