Wendy/Don't Starve Together (2024)

See also: Abigailand Abigail's Flower

Wendy's main special power is her ability to summon her dead twin sister, Abigail. Wendy starts with Abigail's Flower in her inventory. She will be able to summon Abigail immediately and gain 15 .Wendy can ask Abigail to stay close to her or roam more free via Abigail's flower. In the Sooth state Abigail follows Wendy and will attack Mobs that either attack Wendy or that Wendy herself attacks. In the Rile up state Abigail attacks every Mob near Wendy, enemy or neutral. Wendy can decide to retire Abigail by attacking her (using force attack) or clicking on her while dragging an Abigail's Flower, losing 15 in the process.

Abigail starts with a health pool of 150 . Her health changes to 300 health after 1 day and goes to 600 health after 1 additional day. The process is 4 times faster if there is a fully decorated Sisturn in the World. Abigail goes back to her initial health when she is destroyed by an enemy or when Wendy is revived after death. Abigail has a protective shield. When attacked, a protective shield surrounds her and absorbs all other damage within a small window of time after the first attack.

Wendy can assist Pipspooks to recover their lost toys and gain Mourning Glories as a reward. Wendy does not lose sanity due to Ghosts, Pipspooks and Ghost Characters. Ghosts are neutral towards Wendy, but will attack if provoked.

Wendy has exclusive access to the Ectoherbology Tab to craft Ghostly Elixirs. There are 6 Ghostly Elixirs:

Wendy can also exclusively craft the Sisturn through the Structures Tab. The Sisturn can be decorated with petals to generate a sanity aura of +25 /min.

Abigail's attacks beset her opponents with ghostly petals for a short period of time, increasing the damage they receive by 10% for 2 seconds. Wendy players will deal an additional 40% damage to vexed enemies. Combined, Wendy deals 1.155× the normal damage compared to 0.75× under regular circ*mstances.

Wendy suffers 25% less Sanity drain from Darkness and from being near insanity auras. The effect only extends to those two cases though, meaning that other things that drain Sanity (e.g. Rain, Dark Sword, Monster Meat etc.) will drain at the normal rate.

Disadvantage

Wendy's attacks are 25% weaker than most other Characters' in order to balance out the ability to summon Abigail and the lowered sanity drain.

Wendy loses 30 when Abigail is destroyed by an enemy and her power level is reset.

Tips

Main article: Guides/Character guides-Wendy

• Abigail won't keep fighting Mobs forever and sometimes needs to be ordered to do so mid-fight. Keep an eye on the battle so to keep her focused on the task.
• Since she can outrun Rabbits, Abigail is a source of easy Morsels.
  • Although it is always dark in Caves, there's a day-night system in place, meaning Abigail will not always do 40 damage per hit. In the Ruins though it's always considered Night.
• Abigail can tank and damage Pengulls rather easily, and can take the full camp with Wendy's help at Dusk without too much risk. This means Wendy has a fairly reliable source of Food in the Winter.
• While Abigail is great against groups of weaker foes, fighting stronger Mobs will result in her death unless she's helped by Wendy. Great support weapons are the Ice Staff and Fire Staff. The Ice Staff can be used to stun enemies before they land a hit on Abigail, preventing her from taking damage. The Fire Staff can stun Mobs for longer while also damaging them but comes at the cost of possibly burning the dropped loot upon the enemy's death.
• Despite the Sanity icon not displaying an arrow, the Top Hat will not completely keep Sanity from draining in the dark.
• Weapons that deal indirect damage (Fire Dart, Gunpowder, etc.) are not affected by Wendy's damage multiplier making them excellent choices for her.
  • A good melee Weapon for Wendy is the Ham Bat, since it has unlimited uses while fresh, effectively erasing one of the drawbacks of the reduced damage.
• With a Garland and a Pretty Parasol equipped, Wendy suffers almost no sanity drain at night, meaning gathering 18 Petals can keep her sanity up during both night and day during the early days when other sanity-restoring alternatives are unavailable.
• Care should be taken when fighting alongside Abigail, as a single hit from Wendy dismisses her. This is particularly important on the console versions of the game, as the automatic targeting can accidentally attack her instead of an enemy.
• Taming an Ornery Beefalo can be very advantageous for Wendy, taking away her damage reduction and giving her a reliable method of combat when Abigail is unavailable. Whilst attacking with Abigail on a beefalo, Wendy has an effective damage multiplier of 1.54x
• Wendy's favorite food is Banana Pop, meaning she gains 15 bonus when consuming the item.
• Wendy can order Abigail to attack and kill monsters and innocent creatures that increase Naughtiness without causing Krampus to spawn.

Bugs

• While wearing some of the hats, Wendy's flower and the top of her hair will disappear when the player moves towards the top of the screen, and will appear again when she stops moving.
