Wickerbottom books

[Beszedits]

So, i have a few problems regarding her books.

'Applied horticulture' is pretty straightfoward, no biggie there.
'Birds of the world', on the other hand, seems to be a little more tricky. I can't never hit those birds after they land, even after using the pan flute and using force attack. she simply doesnt attack the birds? why?
'On tentacles' is pointless, i think, cuz i can get hit by them. what's the point?
So is 'The end is nigh' cuz i always get hit by the lightning strikes as well.

Any tips?

on tentacles is made to just summon mob tentacles to just attack any mobs. Just use the book near the deerclopes and let them go wild, or get a spider had and use it near a spider den or spider queen

what about the birds. why i can't attack them?

That im not sure, maybe they are used to drop seeds or something? idk all my knowladge is from watching other wickerbottom players, im more of a woodie/Webber/Wendy player

On tentacles is great!

I use them near hound mounds for easy gem farming and giant killing.

Use "The End is Nigh" on WX-78. You will not regret it.

Use the end is nigh with a rain hat/ jacket on, you wont be shocked AND you can kill people on non pvp servers

Just Use sleepytime stories right after

I agree with Noire, I find Birds of the World useless without the Sleepytime Stories. I mean even if you have just a Boomerang and the Birds of the World, all the birds will fly away after you kill one. Fortunately Sleepytime Stories is relatively cheap aside from the Prestihatitator being built first.

But he said he used the pan flute right after, the problem is that he can't attack the birds, it isn't working.

If attacking or force attacking isn't working properly for you, then go through the usual steps of validating the game's files, and if necessary reinstalling. There's no reason the combo of Birds + Sleepytime shouldn't work.

Tentacles are great because they aren't temporary. Summon them wherever and they'll stay there until destroyed. Over time you can create large fields of tentacles in this way, for seasonal bosses, etc.

The End is nigh useless except when playing with a WX. :)

[NickFurless]

You have to use "Sleepytime Stories" to kill the birds. Wickerbottom main here. Kill them and make Darts. EZ bosses with "On Tentacles"

End is nigh would work on bosses, just wear an eyebrella and dont fight on a flammable zone, but it is pretty much only used on WX only
On tentacles is just book of passively farming things like hounds or merms, which I should try on the Dragonfly later on, as I want to know how many tentacles I need to solo her.
To safely put a zone for you to walk and prepare the zone, do grass walls and destroy them, so tentacles cant spawn near you. Just infest a zone with tentacles (lots of them) and solo bosses.
