Counteract Wendy's Weakness
Low Damage: Abigail helps out a little, but Wendy is rather gimped in personal combat abilities. Invest in crafting solid weapons and armor to offset this flaw.
Abigail's Fragility: Abigail tends to get overwhelmed by large groups of enemies quite easily. Take care as to when to use her and be sure to retreat strategically when needs be.
Correct micromanagement is for a unit like Abigail, so that she attacks the right targets and doesn't get herself killed.

Understanding of Wendy's traits
Wendy boasts a set of wholly unique stats and quirks that make for an inimitable gameplay experience:- Stats: Wendy has a well-rounded spread of Health, Hunger, and Crafting Science, but that 25% base damage reduction does come with her, so she's not quite as good for direct combat.
- Wendy gains a 25% resistance to a drop of Sanity from darkness and monster auras. That puts her in pretty good stead for going out at night to hunt around for spooky places.
- Abigail: Wendy's principal method of using in battle is the use of her spectral twin sister Abigail, who she can conjure into action at will using a flower, and who will do battle with anything Wendy tells her to. Abigail may get weak, but has to be dealt with carefully.
Power Through Abigail
Abigail wields a double-edged power. Here are some ways you can work efficiently with her on your Don't Starve Together adventures:- Call and Dismiss: Call Abigail with the crafted flower, Bone Shards, and Spider Silk. You may dismiss her at any time, at the expense of the regained sanity from calling her, as a risk of leaving her possibly vulnerable.
- Combat Prowess: Abigail targets and automatically attacks the nearest enemies with significant damage. Use in the course of battles with care of the health status of Abigail.
- Ethereal Mischief: Abigail teleports around the map by herself and now and
then clips into the terrain or neutral creatures to attack them. Keep an eye on her and use the Dismissal flower to keep her out of unwanted fights.
Realizing Wendy's Potential
Beyond Abigail, here are ways to take advantage of Wendy's strengths:- Sanity Bonus: Adding in Wendy's inherent resistance to the Sanity drain, she will be free to wander the night and spooky areas with impunity. There's no excuse not to use this time to gather resources or fight bosses.
- Battle strategies: Wendy deals less damage than most but still has survivability. Use hit-and-run attacks or ranged weapons to mitigate how much damage you take. Master armour and enemy kiting.
- Teamplay: Wendy is good in support. Let your allies fight in the front. Abigail should follow from behind. Go scout, and collect resources, for the team.
Wendy Crafting
Just some of the things she can craft are very well fit to Wendy's playstyle:- Helmet: This was a well-crafted helmet that reduces some of the damages that Wendy would have taken in a fight, hence making her a little bit durable.
- Science Machine: Studies Advanced Technologies which lead to the development of weapons and tools that are powerful and compensate for Wendy's lower damage count by being great fighters.
- Light Sources: Craft torches, campfires or lanterns to add an even greater reduction of sanity drain at night, and to allow the most possible benefits from Wendy's passive ability.

Is Wendy a newbie-friendly character in Don't Starve Together?
Wendy is great for beginners since she possesses a bit of damage resistance due to her sanity along with Abigail's help to fight. Her damage is a bit lower, though, so some compensation is needed.
Keeping Abigail Alive
Since it is not possible to heal Abigail directly, do summoning and dismissing according to the situation to prevent it from getting overwhelmed by enemies.
Some Good Team Players to Play with Wendy
Wendy synergizes best with high-damage-dealing characters, such as Wolfgang or Wigfrid, but also has good synergy with characters offering support, such as Wickerbottom.
Wendy is not a strong fighter.
Indeed, Wendy has lower damage than most characters, but Abigail and some pure hit-and-run tactics can get her through meetings just fine.
