Summary0007987: Stinging nettles are way too annoying
DescriptionI know they are supposed to be a hinderance but hear me out. They cant be targeted with normal spells, only melee. Which is fine but they have too much HP so sometimes you have to use 2 to 3 whips to destroy them. This wouldnt be a issue if there wasnt so many of them, but on some locations there are alot grouped together. I suggest to make them have 1hp so you can easily cut them out.

Even once you can deal with them with a single whip, it's still annoying to have to whip your way across the landscape (since there's generally no other path, not to mention that they are often very hard to see on diagonal slopes.

I'd suggest making them taller (so diagonal slopes won't hide them), and having them spawn in "clumps" (either on the ground, or growing as a patch on background walls) rather than being absolutely everywhere. (Giving them enough health to take 2 - 3 whips at this point isn't so bad, since you can also avoid them instead of being forced to clear them to proceed.)

Yeah. And in half the areas, you can't see them over the grass until you're taking damage.

Very annoying.

I wish to report that on the latest beta 1.029, stinging nettles no longer cause damage at all. But there was no mention of this on the changelog so I dont know if its a bug or intended.
