Guides/How to Kill the Giants in DST

So you want to kill that pesky Deerclops with your friend? Well, you're gonna need some help.

The Works
The easiest way for you to defeat him is by chopping as many trees possible in Autumn. If a TreeGaurd appears, it's a good thing. You'll have gathered plenty of pinecone from that, so he'll become your first line of defense after appeasing him. Since the TreeGaurd will dwell around, there's no need to make wood walls as a waste; instead, go find a desert area to kill some hounds. Toothtraps will help with the giants, and keep your stuff safe from them.

Now what?
So the mighty Deerclops has fallen, and your stuck with some living logs from the Treegaurd, and meat from the giant. If you or your friend is Wilson, wait until winter is over to shave. Meat Effigies are useful for the next few monsters. You're ready for whatever you need to face, until you realize you've been depending on forces of nature. By now, you've explored from kiting the giant or chopping trees, and have stumbled upon Merm villages or pig villages. Either way, you need some pig skin for all kinds of things, and one being a football helmet. Preperations are always needed for the giants, so I recommend two different bases: A small one with a weapons chest and fire pit, the other for everything you want to keep. If I missed anything, feel free to edit. I only made this because I got mad from losing to a Deerclops on DST. Enjoy!
