BFB is beyond stupid

[Lesser Evil]

Four games in a row, I have been killed by bird stepping on me. No matter what armor I used and how much HP I had left, it was just an instant one shot. I had no chance to obtain any kind of revival item at that point of the game, so it's four times when my 30-40 days worth of gameplay were wasted. Not going to touch DS untill this is fixed.

Or just try your best in gathering the resources required to make a meat effigy. Wilson = free beard hair. Shave his beard with a razor to get it. He gives you 9 beard hair (the max amount) after 16 days. That's enough to build 2 meat effigies.

Doesnt matter in Hamlet, because you can get hair from gorillas.

Spider Monkeys don't respawn (I think), but Wilson's beard never stops growing. Spider Monkeys are somewhat tricky to fight, but WIlson's beard grows over time no matter what you're doing. Wilson's beard is still helpful, just a little bit less so.

The first time I ever saw it I thought it was a boss coming to fight me, I ran from the claw tree area into a jungle area and she never landed. So maybe there is a chance she loses sight of you under the trees

If you go into that jungle area it can’t get you so yes it leaves

She's not hard to avoid. She only lands when the player is roughly in the center of Her shadow (directly above you. So if you make a 45 degree turn when you hear her flapping, he'll never land. If you don't want her to land at all just walk into a jungle at any time, She will flay away. Or stay in Hamlet She doesn't land (unless you lead her there). When you are ready for her to land just run straight in one direction when you hear Her wings and she'll always land right behind you, so there's no need to avoid her shadow.

I've only died once to her landing following this because I paniced and did try to avoid the shadow. I've actually had my game end more to the BFB character freeze glitch .

The problem isn't it being hard to avoid, it's just inconsistent and a ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ way to die. I never use revives in don't starve, but from now on I'll have to just to counter the ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥, I just lost a perfect 228 days world to a random stomp. The bird didn't screech once, the shadow didn't show, but I could hear the wings flapping. Since I didn't want my city to be destroyed I moved away to the rainforest nearby like I've done multiple times in other playthroughs and this one. I was literally at the edge of the rainforest waiting for it to land so I could walk in and move on with my day, the beak of the shadow touched me and suddenly the landing animation played out and killed me. It's too instantaneous, and I wasn't standing still either. It feels even worse to think it might have landed faster than normal because I was at the edge of rainforest and it was the landing area's limit. Such a waste of time. Looking for a way to prevent BFB entirely I found this discussion, and now I'm just venting. I know it goes away if you're in the rainforest or the city, but I'm not sure about a player-made city, or how it decides to land or not, so I moved away from mine. It also takes either a long time or straight up until the sun goes down for it to give up landing, I learned this hiding from it the first time I played hamlet, since I didn't know what it was.
