Battle Songs are seven Wigfrid-exclusive items craftable in the Stagecraft Tab in Don't Starve Together. They can be used to give nearby players boosts to their abilities when her Inspiration meter goes up, and others can be used for an instant effect at the cost of Inspiration. They're not destroyed on use. Attempting to sing a Battle Song without an effect slot free or enough Inspiration to cast the instant effect will result in a special animation being played. The effects are cumulative if several Wigfrid players sing the same song.
The Heartrending Ballad grants extra healing to nearby players when fighting mobs. It can be crafted using 1 Papyrus, 1 Feather Pencil, and 1 Life Giving Amulet.
It grants +1 per hit for players other than Wigfrid, but only +0.5 for Wigfrid players.
The Clear Minded Cadenza gives an extra sanity point per hit landed on enemies. It can be crafted using 1 Papyrus, 1 Feather Pencil, and 1 Moon Moth Wings.
The Bel Canto of Courage halves sanity drain auras. This will also halve sanity gain from auras converted by the Bee Queen Crown. It can be crafted using 1 Papyrus, 1 Feather Pencil, and 1 Thulecite Medallion.
Fireproof Falsetto[]
“I once burned my vest before seeing a play. I call that dramatic ironing.”
The Rude Interlude draws attention of nearby enemies towards Wigfrid, turning them hostile. It's an instant effect song, so it costs 16 Inspiration to sing. It can be crafted using 1 Papyrus, 1 Feather Pencil, and 1 Toma Root.
The Startling Soliloquy makes nearby enemies panic for four seconds. It's an instant effect song, so it costs 16 Inspiration to sing. It can be crafted using 1 Papyrus, 1 Feather Pencil, and 1 Purple Gem.
Tips[]
Clear Minded Cadenza and especially Bel Canto of Courage can be very effective at combating enemies with strong Sanity-draining auras, such as Deerclops, Shadow Pieces, or the Ancient Fuelweaver.
Rude Interlude can be useful when fighting Bee Queen, Dragonfly, and other bosses that summon backup, allowing Wigfrid to aggro their minions and protect other players.
Fireproof Falsetto can protect the team against fires, an enraged Dragonfly, Lavae and Klaus'sRed Gem Deer spell.
Startling Soliloquy can be helpful to scare off Grumble Bees during the Bee Queen fight or to prevent Klaus's Gem Deer from casting magic for a time.
Heartrending Ballad works well with the Bat Bat to leech health every time Wigfrid hits a foe.
Weaponized Warble only works for weapons that lose durability by use. It won't affect tools, Darts, the Morning Star, or the Ham Bat.
