Help question I cant find the glommer statue. Is that a known bug?
Here is a picture of the deciduous forest on my map. There is not a second one and I know that the icon doesnt show on the map, but I still searched everything and coudnt find the glommer statue. Its currently a full moon an I want to recruit my precious gloom gloom now, so shadow chester finally gets a friend. Will I have to spawn the statue in or is there some chance it might still exist? This is singleplayer DS with all Dlc, in case anyone was wondering.

DST Favorite content mods for DST?
I've looked for threads about this but everyone always talks about the same handful of QOL mods; Geometric Placement, Craft Pot, Combined Status, etc.
I wanna know what you guys are running, in terms of actually adding stuff to the game.
Heap of Foods is packed with Hamlet/Shipwrecked content, it doesn't feel like a 'food mod', it feels like a full-on DLC for the game. New mobs, new biomes, new everything. Probably my #1 favorite content mod for the game.
If you're anything like me, you'll eventually mod every game yourself for that perfect customization. Custom Character Tweaks allowed me to customize lots of things about the main cast without having to break out Notepad++ and learn Lua.
You probably already know about it but Uncompromising Mode really did bring back that pre-Reign of Giants feeling of hardcore survival the original game brought. Even if you don't like your DST more hardcore, it has tons of configs and loads of content that anybody, regardless of skill level, should be able to appreciate.
It's not just for decoration! JingXi Furniture adds loads of new structures that many people might use an entire mod just to have; ice maker machine, faster crockpots, item deconstructor etc. I actually really enjoy this one and the English translation is basically flawless!
Above the Clouds is a SHOCKINGLY faithful re-creation of the Hamlet DLC in DST! I've only noticed one or two extremely minor things that weren't carried over properly (the Aporkalypse Calendar does not flash red when the Aporkalypse arrives for example) but the bulk of the experience is identical and extremely fun with friends.
Marble Tools & Celestial Tools are both well-made and highly configurable tool mods, in case you're sick of using gold tools for everything. You can customize them such that Marble is the ultimate durability tool but Glass is the ultimate work speed tool so they all have a niche and you don't totally invalidate gold tools.
Despite not being compatible with mods which add more to the worldgen like Heap of Foods/Uncompromising Mode, I've still had tons of fun with Odd Lands, the most flexible worldgen mod I've ever seen. I've always thought it was crazy how much space was wasted by water in an average DST world. This mod lets me make a world with NO inland water, just a big circular landmass. It lets me connect the lunar island to the mainland, rework how wormholes spawn, change how the ruins generate, adjust the scale of the ruins compared to the rest of the caves, TONS of things. Everything you ever wanted to customize and more.
So what are you guys running?

Help question (Really sorry if stuff like this is posted too much) I'm new to the game, and need some survival tips
My current gameplan goes as follows
-search for a good spot for a base while gathering sticks, grass, berries, carrots, and rocks, and making an axe and pickaxe
-once I find a good spot (usually at a respawn spot), I place a fire and science station
-get the resources to build an alchemy station
And that's the farthest I can really get as of now. Any tips?

Help question Wolfgang, hard to play or easy?
Hello i wanna settle a bet here.
I claim that wolfgang is a hard character to play due to his only gimmick being x2 Wilson and a crap skilltree.
However they claim hes the easiest because "x2 dmg op"
I truly believe he isn't the easiest character but not the hardest character to play mainly due to him being...well wolfgang. But what do yall think is he the easiest or a hard character to play?

DST Looks like friends struggle a bit with bosses
A little misleading I think, but essentially, a group of friends I play with seem to be struggling with fighting bosses or preparing for them. After a few successful runs, I decided that I would base alone (as WX-78) just so I wouldn’t have to deal with food shortages and not enough material at base. My friends use Willow, Wendy, and Wort. The Wendy player usually ends up helping the Willow stay sane, getting food, and spends a lot of time making potions. The Willow ends up staying at base protecting it (especially in summer) from potential fires, they also farm for Wort and chop trees that were planted around their base. The Wort usually goes to do their own thing trying to create a merm village and king to become stronger but the king usually dies before we even get to a boss.
They have their system but it takes them a long time to prepare for a boss, and when they are ready, some of them end up dying during the fight and if we are fighting the fuel weaver, everybody but me dies.
Ever since I decided to base alone, it’s been easy keeping my base stocked with materials, I only take from underground and trade with the pig king if I get any valuables from fishing. I create my own marble farm for create armor and make clockwork statues to then kill the for their gears.
The Wendy seems like they are great and can work alone but ends up carrying the Willow, and the Willow carries for the Wort.
I usually end up gathering all the materials needed to progress. I don’t have a problem with it, but I don’t want to carry them and then have them die at a big fight and not be able to enjoy it. I get tired of waiting but I try to help them out when I tell them they should fight something for better weapons and armor.
I think this has gone long enough, I’m just wondering if I should move to their base and help them out more or if I should just let them be and let them figure things out. The main problem is them not wanting to play during summer and winter which bums me out a little.
Edit: Wendy player rarely needs someone else to revive them because they always have a perennial alter ready. Willow dies the most because they aren’t very good at combat. Wort tries their best but pretty sure they die less than Willow (mostly because they don’t play as much as the others)
We’ve defeated: dragon fly, ancient guardian, antlion, bearger, bee queen, fuel weaver, deerclops, moose goose, crab king, treeguard, and spider queen.
They aren’t that bad, but one or all go down when fighting a boss (especially fuel weaver)
I try not to do things for them, if they have the materials for something or are missing one thing, I’ll help them get it.
Kinda feels like misfortune falls on me when I’m around Wort. A back up chassis was destroyed because they were on their phone when bearger came by. They threw stacks of water balloons at bee queen and me (did nothing to bee queen) and almost killed me (playing as WX-78)
