Alright I’ll try it out when I get home
please do not use ampoule and omega blue together
Also wouldn’t reaper tooth necklace be better than badge of bravery?
Reaper tooth isn't all that amazing usually.
imo ascendant over bravery
im stuck on infernum DoG, im using stellar torus staff and king of constellations tenryu, should i use something else?
thats my armor and accesories
use elysian wings
try virid vanguard or calamari lament instead of tenryu
my peak DPS with stellar and tenryu is like 30k, will i have more with virid vanguard or calamari lament?
dps is not a perfect metric to check whats good or bad
but virid vanguard and calamari should be better and more consistent than torus
I think torus is better when you coil dog though
alright im going to try it out
did infernum get nerfed
nah
ty
you've just gotten better
guess fargos trained us too well
I noticed this, does anyone know if its a dlc thing
damn
outside of the one bugfix to night prov last year
still sad about the cryogen rework
My best attempt against Dash Simulator, with only Abigail, honestly i'm not dealing any damage through abigail.
its in base souls
her ai speed used to scale twice at night, leading to her being significantly faster than she shouldve been
oh, I found it. I didnt realize there was a toggle for the doomsayer mask minion stuff
i got 13 summoner slots how many virid vanguards and how many calamari should i use?
virid vanguard OR calamari lament
what boss
dough
alright so torsu and vanguard OR calamari
how many tho
tenryu + vanguard
pretty much all souls accessory effects can be messed with in here
is it better to get gaels greatsword and fight exos or exoblade and do scal
or could i just use
something else instead
I noticed a lot has changed, I han't played souls in maybe a year
infernum
exos for exoblade imo
post yharon melee is more than good enough for exos
souls 1.7, which made a bunch of pretty big changes and added cursed coffin, released in november 2024
souls 1.7.2, which made a handful of big changes, released ~early 2025
I played the cursed coffin update, just to see the boss and maybe 2 times between that and banished baron
and now we're getting decently close to releasing a bigger update
(by "we" i mean i'm a fargo's tester)
"a bigger update"
i probably did understate it yes
i'd actually talk about what it does, but i don't remotely remember what of it is public
removed Deviantt 🎉🎉🎉🎉
you're getting executed
crazy stuff
New PB with only Abigail, ima win before 60 attempts no doubt
I might switch out Heart of the elements
Makes sense.
i wonder why Abigail gets such crazy dps when an adrenaline is popped, 50k dps when you just had barely 2000
guh
what the barnacles
is this really only abigail or is it elysian aegis?
i did use old duke sentry but that was out of range at the time and the only other accessory that summons minions that i have is Profaned Soul
wait elysian aegis is buffed by adrenaline?
its buffed by melee damage and highest class
elysian aegis does so much damage on its own that infernum dog dies to it alone in less than the base dog killtime
since you ram him constantly and all
based on my estimates its possible to get below inf dog mnl with all damage coming from elysian aegis
mnl is like 1:20 for context
1:40
forgor
no omega blue tentacles, no slagsplitter, no ambergris
oh my god
moonlord took me forever to defeat with only Abigail 😭
and perfect play
what if i do infernum dog true melee nohit except it's actually elysian aegis only
i will power creep you
DoG no weapon
could contribute to what my plan is/was for that nohit
Well idk if it was nohit but yardis did a copper shortsword DOG only.... With elysian aegis
He said it in the video too but of course he'd name it copper shortsword only
the plan is to style on him like there's no tomorrow, executing every ram method i can think of plus the occasional gauntlet bonk, and make the music Divine Beast Dancing Lion
i should pick up the journey again but i've had other occupations since AD
this has given me motivation to hurry up on actually beating this nightmare
havent seen p3 after 947 attempts
I dread to fight the Exo Mechs and Yharon
What difficulty
infernum, Abigail and Elysian Aegis only
God help you
I'd worry more about sepulcher tho
sepulcher is easily the hardest part of inf scal normally but here
i think it'd be the easiest
with the help of accessory summons ig and now sentries because i couldn't kill Profane Goddess in time without it
I'm gonna use Blue Omega Armor for the first time ever
overkill smh
I don't get any real damage besides using the Aegis just because i'm playing Abigail only
YEAH SO Blue Omega armor is truly overkill bro, jesus christ, i got hooked up on peak, i gotta use this for the rest of my playthroughs
wait what the barnacles are you doing
I ran into my area wall right after the rapid dash and teleport phase
The time difference between Blood Flare and Omega Blue armor is CRAZY
can sand elemental spawn in corrupt desert?
Yeah omega blue has better offensive stats than any armor except demonshade. Unless you're stealth rogue or summoner then it kinda sucks
And the tentacles are really nice too
hes finally dead 😭
my summons and whip keep being despawned because the game is probably hitting its projectile limit, can i increase that somehow?
Your minions might be going outside the world border, that causes them to despawn
considering im fighting infernum dog, that might actually be the case lmao, thanks
i'm summoner but becase of only using Abigail as my summon, I actually benefit from the armor set
how am i looking for DOG infernum
especially if you have a nuke option like supernova or dragon rage
not enough omega blue
or miracle fruit
or elderberry
I love how janky some of Infernum's enrage mechanics are
like Primordial Wyrm doesn't enrage outside the abyss, Plantera doesn't enrage outside the jungle, and Aquatic Scourge doesn't enrage outside the sulfur sea
some of these are super fun to tinker with, in arena construction haha
cuz my new favorite Plantera arena is to summon her then just fight her in the underworld.... Aquatic Scourge, as long as you have a mini-sulfur biome (I would need to check how possible that is) you can fight it without sulfur poisoning being an issue at all, and Jared you can summon and then just fight anywhere in the world as well, as long as you don't go so far as to despawn him
what should i place in my last 2 slots, i don't have any need for summon accessories because Abigail cannot keep up with DoG
what's this for? abigail only DoG nohit?
uhhh i don't plan on no hitting but if i happens hey that means i got lucky
it's just abigail only run lol
on infernum ofc
can't make it too easy
then imo drop everything barrnig the elysian accessories and go omega blue fat strats
PSA is okay
fucked up on number 9 again fuck
i'd go for Absorber, Bloodflare Core, Amalgamated Brain, Cherished Sealocket, and Affliction
become morbidly a beast
pre dog bulk lookin pretty good

looking great
liver lookin just as hot
do u have old fasdhioned
Wait why bloodflare core?
bfc is considered 'direct healing' and thus bypasses Omega Blue's regen lock
Its use case is to improve recovery from well spaced hits at the cost of your ability to survive chain hits
But chain hits are already lethal on DoG and every other hit is well spaced, so
Why do lots of people really not like infernum exos, sure they are far from perfect and some of their attacks suck but it's still mostly good imo.
Maybe Slagsplitter Pauldron and Reaper Tooth Necklace?
if you're willing, try holding Psycho Knife (but not swinging it) for the insane melee dmg boost. Make sure to, while holding Psycho in full stealth, right click on and off one piece of omega blue any time you respawn so the tentacles spawn with full psycho dmg
nah too much work lowkey
It will make you deal like 3x the damage
Imo it's a really good fight tbh, but they're polarizing mostly because of how long they are, I believe?
Like some people think they got too many phases and shit
if i had the real estate im sure that the dash override would be useful
umm
i dont have the profaned garden in my world
time to make another world to kill it...
I was hoping for the fight to be under 60 attempts but tbh this isn't bad
Astrageldon - Attempt 199 - nohit [start from phase 1]
1:49 - 80.12%
Astral Armor set
Entropic Claymore + 1 Terraprisma + 3 Stardust Cells
Bloody Worm Scarf
Empress Wings
Asgard's Valor
Destroyer Emblem
Fire Gauntlet
Celestial Shell
nohit with bws?
someone asked me to ditch both angel treads and insignia. so they're telling me that even if I start from phase 1?
nova slimes and blight stone still gives me trouble
A mobility accessory (like soaring insignia) or offensive accessory better suited to what you're doing (like avenger emblem)
If you're specifically going for the scythe, then you can use Amalgamated Brain
The scythe considers a 'flawless kill' as beating the bad guy without your HP ever dropping below 100%
okay
(ragnarok) The borian strider will not drop fangs
i have seriously fought him 100+ times that is not an exaggeration
When does bloodstone drop
post prov
correct
your most optimal strat against yharon is to play like a little bitch
run as far as you can
do not engage
if he gets close to you get as far away as you can in any direction
worked amazing for me
how do i enter bereft vassal portal in multiplayer
i remember the pause tech but obvisouly taht wouldnt work in multi
you literally just can't
is ml even playable in multiplayer infernum lol
me any my freind have been struggling on infernum yharon, are there any tips that could help, we are melee and ranger
where do i go from planting the antiseed?
(calamity wrath of the gods)
try talking to solyn
just about the rain
ok now shes reminiscing about her life before
and how things aren't the same anymore
also does the rift get bigger over progression? because i swear it's bigger than when it first showed up in the skybox
i noticed theres something about draedon, i'll try to get to the exo mech fight
infernum defiled is going well
Unless infernum got even buggier he is we did a run this summer
✅
ok thanks waltuh
Tbh just progress for now
You will find out when smth is available
beat exo mechs get endgame gear then summon draedon
ok should i go along boss checklist order?
ooooooooooh ok it makes sense now
scal/exo mechs are doable in either order but yes
the XG-07 Mars description explains it
me any my freind have been struggling on infernum yharon, are there any tips that could help, we are melee and ranger
Okay first thing about yharon: combo dashes
In p1 he does double dashes
Use sound cues to ram the second
Next thing send build and ask the other person for their build
k
i cant get a screenshot atm
godslayer armor
blood chalice, aegis, tracers, gauntlet, nebulous core
amalgm
switch out tracers for silva wings
based
Can you text it then
he just did 😭
no i cant get a screenshot at the moment
Sorry lags
are you using the absorber?
Nebulous core is an interesting choice
Does it clear debuffs?
if you are and get hit by the true eyes of cthulu you get softlocked im pretty sure
rebind dash key
Nebulous core seems great to me
A revive every 90 seconds
Clears rebuffs and bleed
please rebind dash key
And plus 10 percent damage
makes the fight 3x easier once you get accustomed to it
What about your bros build
Is it the same but with ranger stuff
Is it? I haven’t noticed that
Similar
His accessories need a bit more upgrading
But I’ve been practicing on my own and haven’t got anywhere
Also I know that reaper shark necklace is unlikely to be the best thing
you can try affliction instead of reaper shark
reaper shark necklace is pretty good
Well rebind dash key and get ready for old duke prime
Did
Last yharon phase is deadass last od phase
idk if infernum is really meant for multiplayer
Well it works somewhat well for us
not meant for it, but still kinda works
a lot of ais become a lot more unpredictable
True
like for DOG it literally just kills everyone in less than a quarter of a second after killing 1 person
We were fighting guardians and for some unspeakable reasons after being aggroed to my melee bro they suddenly threw the sun into my face
Meant but not required
also for some reason in yharon fight i had two other friends
i was just invicible half the fight
Also isnt affiction cracked in multiplayer
yes
very
im pretty sure its the only accesory based around multi
and even solo its pretty good
oh yeahh for melee use the orderbringer if you arent
trust me
its the best for yharon melee
atleast was for me
If you are torturing yourself by doing tmelee use murasama
is rogue just meant to be the worst class
😭
im playing through ranger rn on infernum and with all other classes i havent struggled as much as i have in my rogue run yet
i beat the game as rougue
Oh sorry can't read
But imo rogue shines in pre boss post ml and post yharon
oh
Post exos rogue is absurd
atom splitter?
Yeah
or supernova
supernova was crazy for brothers and soul seekers
True
legit just skipped those
But yeah for me the worst class is ranger
i just think summoner and melee are more well rounded
Fuck ranger
The humble multiplicative damagr on kaleido and MS
Well now ranger has the saw thing
Superradiant
clockwork bow is NOT cutting it lol
When I was doing ranger it was even worse
also why do the guns do like no damage
I heard someone say that superradiant works on polterghast
True
And ranger after superradiant falls off is ass
Ranger is the only class rhat I didnt kill inf scal with
mage idk what it was
Because of ass dps
Arch amaryllis or smth is really good
thats why i saved ranger for last lol
uh i think
I never had a good rogue ml fight
i didnt use though since star of destructon shredded moonlords top eye
Second run solo it were talismans
Well they were good for aureus and leviathan
Why was I using them for cultist golem and etc is a good question
I liked em
no homing kinda ruined it for me
ranger is worse now that i think about it
at no point is ranger the best or even second best class
asides from pre hm
Ranger hate🔥
Ranher is only good during minishark Luxor's gift time
maybe the guns are just ass
No it just sucks
Blossom flux is good tho
blossom flux is good
for the easiest portions of the game
golem and cultist are jokes
One of the only insane bows next to phantasm line and maybe fishron/eol bows?
There is also a bow that weaver drops
i guess ill try celebration mk2
Which eats your fps with elysian arrows
Actually ranger has one more good spot
Hellborn
Drop from brim elemental that gets a moderate kill time on prov
oh
providence is easy anyway though
after the first run
just is a sort of long fight
Ranger was the only class to get to second p2 cycle
Usually she dies during lava rises even more
Or dogna
oh thats bad lol
portal gun
Huh
portal gun helps a surprising amount with provi
just the sides of both arena walls?
ye
I never thought about rhat buf for what attack do you use that
providence isnt all to hard after you look at the patterns
Lava rises even more?
hell crosses maybe
Tbh if dogma didnt kast until heat death of the universe prov would have been much easier
since if u keep distances they are easy to dodge
i find it helps most with the phase transition with the fireballs rising from below (basically becomes a freebie), helps a good bit with the crosses, and it gives you a last-ditch move if you end up in a bad dogma spot
Phase starter is really easy imo
it is, but it makes it even easier
You hug the wall on attack 1 and slowly glide across the arena on attack 2
Im not sure on how good heavenly gale is but every other weapon is garbage
3 minutes to GET to brothers
guys what can i do when i accidentally broke solys tent and shes in a cave below my base
Rogue gets to desp in that time
gotta finish the whole dm dokuro ost before the fight ends huh
😭
14 minutes
imagine fighting scal for 14 minutes tho actually
i used magnomaly cannon and it was pretty good
Well that run would probably have lasted for the entire scars of calamity
surprisingly
it would have but im talking about stained brutal calamity
I used it and it wasnt good as the 3 minutes is with it
Maybe the reason was that I was bad and didn't get adrens
Because on rogue I just skipped phase 2 and 4
With p3 being bros
Which also got semi skipped
calamity should make ranger have like traits to their bullets or something
because some bullets not being homing is really bad at some stages
pretty much every class has good homing weapons while as ranger you need to use lower dps bullets if you want that
True
like make ranger emblem or an upgrade to it have homing bullets
post lunatic if you dont want chlorophyte bullets to be useless
And add its effect into post dog cool accessory
or pick something that's not a gun that homes in
bow
Ranged has extremely powerful weapons to pair with homing however. It's not that big of a drawback for them. Plus ranged has the highest velocity projectiles.
Just mod in more bullets
Plus it's fine if a class isn't as good at certain things
They deserve some kind of identity after all
Good take 👍
how many dashes does dog do in the last part
a god doesnt fear death
how many dashes before he pops out
million
He does exactly five
He will make five portals, comes out with fireballs and disappears, yadda yadda
Then the sixth portal he makes will be a smooth transition into the standard dashing behavior
just got his ahh 🙏 this is so much better than the250 i did last time
fear monger armor or silva? is it again js fearmonger is more dmg and silva is more tanky
Other way around but also more complicated
also after mirror and staff which ones do i do?
Silva is the gold standard. For summoner, it is extremely strong and relatively very bulky
okay cool
Fearmonger is a classless alternative. In all cases, its damage output is particularly poor but its survivability is second to none, even in endgame
I cannot stress how morbidly a beast Fearmonger is
you can play like you have a concussion and you'll still win it's so funny
morbidly a beast... what a goated set
btw, is it weird that I no longer make jungle arenas much, if at all
yes
what for plantera?
I think Plague Goliath is the only notable boss to make a jungle arena for, because of needing vertical movement, but even then there are good workarounds
i am the paragon of normalcy and i exclusively make jungle arenas
fight her in hell, she doesn't enrage
Experiment with them and see what you like the most
oh theres none thats like insanely better than the rest?
Not really
AI Programming and Memory Chip, spawns an operator is that an npc? I don't see them when I used that item
Mirrors are noticeably better but you're limited to five
Yes Operator is an NPC
The only things worth mentioning is that Cosmic Viper Engines will shoot whatever bullets you give them, so ammunition matters for them
And that mechworms scale just like stardust dragons so they're weird
They don't scale linearly
oh ok
do they just move into the house after i clicked on a AI Programming and Memory Chip I found
No, they're basically spawn eggs from Minecraft
You place the item within your building range and, wherever you chose, the NPC will spawn and the item consumed
You can retrieve the item by murdering the Operator (good!) or catching her with a bug net (tolerable!)
oh so I just put the item somewhere in the house
you can put the item literally anywhere
inside a house is acceptable
NPCs will claim a house anywhere in the world if they don't have one already, and will teleport to them when you're sufficiently far away AND if it's raining or nighttime
like inside a chest or something, doesn't seem to want to be placed anywehre
Does Operator already exist somewhere
And are you attempting to use the item sufficiently close to you
probably i had 2 of them and 1 got used like i summoned a boss,
Sounds like you spawned her
i didn't even know what it was then seen a announcement an operator has appeared
but i can't see anyone
But I wouldn't be surprised if AlchNPC had spaghetti code
any tips for fighting yharon in infernum?
is it just memorize the timings on his dashes
Play aggressively, or at least aggressively enough to ensure he's always within one dash's range from you
If you're too far away, his dash will conclude before reaching you which can be tricky. It'll give off the impression he's faking you out
Keep track of his position to adjust your ram timing according to however far away he is from you
Additionally, keep track of his HP. He has various subphases which will trigger at certain HP thresholds, and will cycle his behavior consistently within subphases
In my experience, phase 1 dashes can mostly be avoided by staying away and only ramming through one of the two he chains consecutively. Although knowing the dash pattern helps a lot with that.
The fire-trail dashes he unlocks in phase 1 subphase 2 are simply to be avoided, don't risk ramming through those
Phase 1 subphase 3 he starts doing teleports before dashes, and these teleports are an amazing opportunity to deal damage
Phase 2, he gets a lot more aggressive with those dashes. Phase 2 subphase 1, can still be treated like phase 1 dashes in that you can avoid most of them and not have to ram through them necessarily, just it has a pretty long and varied dash combo there. From phase 2 subphase 2, he starts doing REALLY fast dashes which you need to get a timing for, because you need to be able to ram dash through essentially all of them
I'll go back for the scythe, buddy. [hopefully]
also I found something funny after that 
like how did this generate in surface?
After yharon reaches 80%(?) in p2 he despawns and buffed old duke spawns
I understand that infdevs were running out of ideas but they made the same boss twice
Dog gets a pass cuz he is a worm
So the fight is also worm manipulations
yo im playing rn and i need to kill giant clam
and since i killed wall of flesh is not spawning anymore
is lunic corps armor any good for moon lord
Yes
Lunic Corps is a very bulky armor set, although naturally its damage output suffers
It's very effective and remains usable post-ML
I wonder though, at that point is it worth using over astral armor? Since that also offers a lot of bulk
It's personal preference
Astral armor has really big numbers so it's pretty much impossible to compete with
Lunic Corps has a niche for the fat shield making slow, methodical play more suitable
Honestly looking at the stats I think astral is probably just better
Lunic corps gives 50 shield health essentially , while astral armor gives more defense, even more defense if you use brittle star staff, extra health, etc
And that's not going into the offensive boons
Yeah Astral is generally better
That does not discount Lunic Corps' merits and does not somehow make Lunic Corps fail to function
I like Lunic corps cuz it looks cool
Vanity slots are just for that
Doesn't Rover drive painted white give you that
It does but I have a lot of things in vanity
Rainbow cursor, summon dye, wing vanity and any other vanity
Astral armor has 11 more base defense, and the three minion slots can be 15 more defense via brittle star staff
Alongside 20 extra health from the armor
I meant as in using offensive minions and and dodging
But
Fair
I'm not saying that you shouldn't use it, because it's still good enough
Yea
I’m not saying astral is worse either
I love both
Prob some of my favorite armors
But I am saying that I don't see a reason to use it over astral except personal preference
Fair
Only armor I might like more is wulfrum armor and all secret of the shadows armors
Wulfrum armor is peak and I wish we had more armors like that, I hope the arsenal armors will work like that
Armor damage only runs when
So underrated
I’ll do you one better I’ll no hit with it
Well, let's hope the arsenal armors actually do work like wulfrum armors then
It seems like they will
k I was reached post-moon lord and I already collected all early moon lord melee weapons 🤭
now I'm gonna build the collection room for all hardmode melee weapons and hardmode boss relic room. and I think I'm gonna use brimstone slab for that.
I used pink dungeon tiles
But fair
previously for the pre-hardmode melee weapons and boss relics, I use smooth marble
Ohhh
Nice
I also used dungeon tiles
(Cuz skeletron and dungeon)
then for post moon lord and postgame melee weapons collection room, I'm gonna use exo plating
Should I use eternity or Rainbow Party Cannon for AoE and ND?
cannon has the highest dps of anything in the mod
Oh really?
I checked and eternity is higher
yes

Wooden sword vs the old duke
dummies are almost as unreliable as just reading the base damage
Im using super dummies though
need tips on old duke's 3rd phase, he dashes faster than I can ram dash 
There is literally no diffwrence
not a meaningful difference
thing with dummies is that they're tiny, don't move, and have no defense or dr
all of which usually are Not True for bosses
I believe Flamsteed ring and empowered PSC still have it higher iirc, but close enough
Either that, or I'm mistaking between DPS and boss rush clear times
and all of which therefore don't give an accurate show of how weapons will perform on actual bosses
I feel like eternity and party are better than eachother for different situations
probably the latter, i've seen at least 3 other people confirm rpc is the highest
Get asgards valor+leviathan ambergis combo
And rebind dash
Asgard's valor is outclassed post prov
Its needed for a good od dash spam build
kill providence in underworld to get the shield
Aegis has too much range
You will suffer from too much range with ambergis
Thats why a downgrade to valor is needed for an easier od
And yes I have tried that
Option one: learn how to dodge some of his dashes without having to ram through all of them .
Two: use a shield with shorter dash distance (deep diver would be the best technically), however that does mean you gotta stick to even tighter timings because of less dash duration
The dance of light is solid too.
a good magic weapon
(not talking about the duke situation
what do you guys recommend
as last accessory
in this setup
i had asgards valor but the armor already gives me a dash
damn this one actually worked like a charm
did it in like 5 attempts using leviathan ambergis/asgards
tysm
i figured out that papyrus scarab stacks with statis blessing, thats what im putting there
Use radiant jewel over community
only gives defensive stats tho, community gives movement and damage aswell
is it really not that good?
Compared to what you could be running from the outside looking in, seems like the main draw is that the increase is minimal to where you'd rather run something else in its place.
I could see argument for community if the stats throughout progression were jacked up a bit.
Also while you're at it might as well retire treads for another accessory slot since you having fishron wings clues me into the point where your primary way of movement will be flying anyway so you can have something else entirely.
Amalgamated brain would be an excellent option, IMO
Radiant ooze or life dew over community or even angel treads would also work, given how fast fishron wings are
okay cool thanks guys for all the advice
Best of luck in your endeavors :>
i got amalgamated brain and infected jewel
now i wont even have to dodge lmao
so much defensive items
also, stardust dragon or terraprisma?
1 terraprisma, the rest stardust cells
But wait, if you're at post cultist, I'd recommend ambrosial Ampoule and/or absorber over infected jewel
Amazing accessories, both of them
^
Don't forget Statis Curse while you're at it.
Always forget that one when playing summoner lol
haha thanks for reminding me
i might be a bit too overgeared lmao
i first tried astrum aureus
That is a post plant boss
You are post cultist
Astrum deus is the post cultist boss
wait stardust CELLS? not dragon?
Correct
Well, dragon is better for deus, but for ML cells is better
ah okay thanks
i made the dragon staff after deus, couldnt be bothered with pillars
Yeah I used it on 2x hp 1.5x damage OD
is heart of the elements worth using? seems cool
I think it os
Yes, up till around providence it's worth using
okay ill get it
Just as long as you're fine with the screen clutter
i have friendly projectiles on 20% opacity
i can turn it lower if it bothers me haha
Infernum ML might be the worst boss in the entire mod
worst as in difficult or unfun?
both
haha wait till you get to dog
ive beat infernum twice before i just suck at this fight
ah, understandable
Personally i wouldnt consider him the worst
OD and polterghast exist so I have to disagree
im def overexaggerating but im just bad at the last phase
I will not take this old duke slander but I know I'm in the minority lmao
ur right that fight sucks
nah i like the dashslop tbh
Obviously there will be a part where somebody will have problem even if in theory its isnt that hard
i dislike old duke the most aswell
For me it happens pretty frequently
tbh i enjoyed polter but that was like 2 years ago, not sure if they reworked him
Iirc changed a bit but not much
Bro has one attack (dashing) and three "attacks" that barely even exist and don't do shit
Does he still have his desperation attack?
Cuz i played on multiplayer and he didnt had
But that might be multiplayer issue
I dislike polterghast because I hate how often he goes invincible or nearly invincible, the lingering projectile spam he does, and how obnoxious he is for true melee
He does
Damn
thats valid, i beat him when i was playing mage
Okay fair enough on that part.
I beat him with terratomere which made the shitty true melee experience option not impactful at all, but it still has to be mentioned when criticizing polterghast
this part specifically
I understand the attack, but I didn't find that one to be too hard, I found the fireball one to be less intuitive
However that attack does make it more likely to be hit by a stray projectile
i dodge one attack just to run into another
anyone know why moon lords attacks are so hard to see? they are like dark red
not all attacks, but the eyes especially
is that supposed to be like that?
also statis ninja belt or asgards valor?
Omniscience potion most likely
You can't get Statis' ninja belt pre Moonlord, only master ninja gear. But that's more useful than Asgard's valor for Moonlord as long as you got KB immunity from like, the absorber
ok thanks ill turn it off
i just beat him
so for providence
Worry about profaned guardians first, for which I'd use Asgard's valor
Statis ninja belt for providence tho
okay, thanks
no way kaleidoscope is still best post providence whip
also what summon/sentry for post providence as summoner?
dazzling stabber staff seems alright
Well infernum adds perditus
Which is even better
took me 28 att and lunic armor but i beat moon lord
Dazzling stabber is good enough, so is virid vanguard
Sentry wise, it depends on the specific boss, for worms, you'd go lunar portal staff, for other bosses..... Probably energized spark?
calamity doesn't add any new whips sadly :(
infernum adds one tho
Well time to get perditus
Okay thanks a lot for all this
Kaleido gives multi damage
Perditus will result in less dps I think by itself
It will add a lot with whip stacking
for guardians/providence what do i use now that the elemental blaster isnt a thing
Superradiant
Which is what ele blaster got turned to
I never used it but I can see why it's good and I heard people use it after prov
But I dont need to say why a wealon that is basically tmelee with extra steps is good against no contact damage prov
I'm using a ranger build on Infernum (with master mod fix addon) & how do I deal with Supreme Calamitas dot
I get too 400 hp in one hit from the effect not contact damage
ya one sec, I also have a mod with extra access slots added 2/3? as ik how much harder it was gonna be
Hello. I've been trying to beat moon lord for quite a long time now, I'm on infernum and I want some tips about maybe dodging (im really struggling with his later phases) and loadout? I would appreciate any kind of help now since I have over 50 attempts on this already, thanks
been using this (I want to do mage only)
with a mod which adds more access slot, it will be much more easier
one is taken up by an access for ki as I have a rebalance DB mod (I might like DB)
blood pact to ambrosial ampoule and I personally would change arcane flower to permafrost's concoction (the revive can be insanely clutch), hydrothermic mage armor can also be nice for survivability
go to the voice chat 4 channel and look at that vid
also grab some warding holy crap
What does blood pact do again?
Also valor is better to be swapped for master ninja gear and change abrain to smth else
like even if it's not all warding, even one or two helps a lot
25% more max hp and 25% more health from healing pots
yes, after watching a SorbetCafe vid explaining warding I realized how good it rlly was
void monolith effect sucks i agree
warding will give u more leg room to make a mistake, b/c even if sure you'll not take much less damage 1hp vs dead can be the diff b/t winning & losing
aint that the person who despises reading
yeah it is
He's the one that did 16 ppl each class
especially in calamity, considering that you get +5 defense instead of +4 defense in hardmode per warding
& hates how mage is setup
what'd they do 😭
also didn't make a single ench in eternity mode and was wondering why he was struggling
yes & at the point I'm at 7+
he also immediately dismissed all enchantments because "too much reading"
maybe?
we literally had to fucking beg him to make meteor ench
giving me vibes of someone I saw that didn't want to make the valhalla knight enchant because "mounts have too little acceleration" 
no idea
maybe it is, I watched mostly his explaining vids then his 16ppl each class
it is
never been on a stream but interesting he did that
he took 16 minutes on eow
of no reading for a mod all about special skills & stuff
ok so I did get the name right
during the streams he also revealed that he wants the community's (the cal accessory) tooltip to be something like "increases stats"
What does blood pact do again?
Also valor is better to be swapped for master ninja gear and change abrain to smth else
Also what weapon are you using
And main tip for ml is kill top eye first
As if you kill non top eye first it may do a long ass attack while all eyes are closed
I dismissed all enchants because too much of a choice

Whats harder
Reading or counting
The Ultimate Calamity fan...
holy lag spike
internet floodgates
all of the messages came in at once 😭
increases hp & potion potency by 25%
blood pact is technically regen
I use it still at endgame
Well I mean smth like actual regen like ampoule
it has gotten me thro norm infernum instead of the hell of Master Infernum
glory to regen accessories
yes
my fav kind
Glory to photosynthesis potion
Why would you do that when chalice of the blood god exists and is better in every way
i should get back to the dog grind
Photosynthetis potion is so damn good
Got me enough hp for like 1 extra rod use on masodeatg abon which saved me
I got upgraded ver I don't remember names very well I thought that was the upgraded ver
myb
And it helped on mutant edeath too
got me to endphase Sup Cal regen is everything on her
holy
funny thing is, he also did a blind calamity playthrough, and proceeded to fight aquatic scourge prehardmode, somehow beat it, and (going off of the comments of the vid here, it's like 30 minutes) complained that the weapon was strong 😭
didn't use any calamity accessories or stuff either
Genuinely how do you play calamity first time without a friend with 7k hours
guys after all those changes yall told me to do I got insanely close now I think I can do it
Clearly, he is the target demographic for Calamity.
thank you so much omg
...with this discord and the wiki
Well I mean if someone wants to do it without help
yeah that's my main problem with calamity
Be me a few years ago.
With only in game things
it's a seriously wiki based mod
ya only issue I have with it
I mean, so is Terraria unless you really like The Guide.
when I 1st played I gave up early & came back later after I found the wiki
now I find revengance too easy 💀
Actually does calamity have its npc for help
Vanilla has guide fargo has deviantt
at least the guide exists
nope, nothing to help at all
bro what's with the new spacing in between messages
I'm both a guide hater & appreciator (mf let zombies in wayyy to much)
You could listen to Amidias, who tells you what to do... but people forget he exists.
honestly I understand why tho, cause he doesn't seem important
guide has well GUIDE in his description
And hes unlocked from a miniboss post ds
it's completely off topic but the new discord update added more spacing between messages and where you type messages
At least fargo straight up throws deviantt at you
yeah, you might not even find the sunken sea
which someone could easily miss until they alr have better gear
it's one of the most niche biomes in the mod
than what Amidas sells
until you realize u need mollusk shells for certain upgrades & sunken sea for parts of decryption to summon EXO Mechs
which is way late
for his gear
Sunken sea is needed at 2 points
sunken sea's existence is as obvious as the post plant dungeon's
you kill a boss and there's a status message in chat
Sunken Sea is mandatory to visit to fight Draedon.
It's literally where the questline starts.
Tbh id say that sky planetoid should have been first
Not unreasonable.
ok to be fair on me forgetting that it gives the status message
which at that point, do u need Amidas to tell u what to do? He rlly is only important if u can no hit in abyss with his breathing buff
I'm sleep deprived rn and it's 7 am lol (I went to sleep at midnight)
Amidias tells you Calamity progression things.
I never knew that
yeah, no one looks at his dialogue
& I have hundreds of hours I'm suprised I never noticed
I didn't really know either ngl
I discovered it once when I was getting him before oxygen fight and he said smth about ravager? Or smth dont remember
ah
"Profaned creatures now lurk in the Hallow and in Hell. If you destroy enough and gather their essence together you shall be able to capture the attention of the Profaned Guardians."
Here's one of Amidias' help messages.
He's how you're meant to learn the bulk of Calamity's progression.
The Abyss has become far more active than before. You might be able to mine some of the volcanic rubble contained within.
post golem help message
Guide only has a couple, like he mentions Uelibloom and Ceaseless, but not much else.
So that's where Yharim's called the Golden Heretic.
I was looking for that.
"The Golden Heretic, Yharim, possesses strength that may just surpass all of the Gods. When you face him, be well prepared for the battle of your life."
The Abyss holds many secrets revealed with time. Checking it out again may not be a bad idea.
Ah...I can sense a powerful change in the weather. You may want to venture to the Sulphurous Seas once more during the rain to experience it.
the post polter messages
Calamity players can't read
dialogue, only weapon/accessory info
it may be cope but Yharim is getting added one day right 😔
Yes.
Yeah, but it's literally the last thing they're gonna add in development
Except maybe noxus and xeroc depending on how much they wanna do those
huh what'd u say?
Amidias also hints at like every accessory having an upgrade post dog
👍︎♋︎●︎♋︎❍︎♓︎⧫︎⍓︎ ♐︎♋︎■︎⬧︎ ♍︎♋︎■︎ॐ︎⧫︎ ❒︎♏︎♋︎♎︎📬︎
Hopefully, I wanna kill Xeroc for making Boss Rush
You won't kill him.
Oh no its wind doer gastricher
nah I'd win (I'd get one shot)
Thank you, I understand it now
Ah it'll be more like a sparring match
We're not killing the sun
Nah man trust 🙏😔
Trust me, killing the guy who is in charge of making the sun work would probably end badly.
good point, then I can't throw the Tinkerer in the sun
Xeroc is part of the dream blunt rotation
You would think that guy would want Yharim.
What the hell are you fighting?
That's a geometry dash level
Shouldn't that go in general talk?
It has one clearly AOE inspired attack but the rest seem unique, even if clearly WOTG inspired
Do you accept?
I forgot, but this is my build and the item I'm looking at is from Secrets of the Shadows
Nvm I take it back, Boss Rush isn't even that bad
Devs, add Double Trouble Boss Rush for this user.
NOOOO
12 accessories?
is... is that five extra accessory slots
I added some b/c I couldn't get thro Master Infernum Calamitas
That's your problem.
Master Infernum isn't real.
& I still can't, Revengance & norm I can't
Stop playing on fictional difficulties.
How you gonna have 12 accessories and not a single offensive one
honestly 1st time trying the mastermode addon & expert infernum I don't need the xtra
technically you can play it with an addon, but there's no real ai changes and it's just stat bloat
Don't use that addon.
Ever.
with projectiles being faster too I believe as Timing as been wonky
should I just do a new pt tbh?
Sup Cal has projectiles were so fast I went full healing cause it was a I'm getting hit, knowing the addon breaks it ya I'll jus make a new tbh that'll make it functional
The faster something dies, the less time it has to shoot projectiles at you
While defensive setups are the best in calamity, having some offense is still a good part of them
ok, I thought ppl had beaten the addon & I was jus bad for adding xtra. But knowing it's broken that makes sense
Ya I had the elemental quiver & the one that summons dark portals with 75% increase to arrow damage for Exo Mechs
unless I'm high & u make that after
thx for the helpful info of it's broken tho, I was lowkey going insane 😭
new q, what class should I do next?
on attempt 70, i got him to 3rd phase
infernum devourer of gods, no omega blue, only void edge
is screwdriver good for yharon
wulfrum screwdriver is not a viable weapon for postml
can i fight polter in the ceaseless void arena
yeah
i mean the alchohol
Screwdriver is a craftable Hardmode alcohol. Upon consumption, it inflicts the Screwdriver debuff, which reduces life regen by 0.5 HP/s but multiplies the damage of piercing projectiles by 1.05x.
While the effects of the Screwdriver debuff are mostly beneficial, it is still considered a debuff and therefore...
3 life regen is brutal
I just tier skipped Duke Fishron right after Prime, Infernum Fishron was so hard for me on my first playthrough so I am shocked
Demon Wings to Fishron Wings is quite the wing upgrade
? three life regen
is scredriver good for yharon
it seems decent but idk
weapon dependent
?
yeah thats -1
I thought the 3 from the 3 alcohols part was where it said thr minus life regrn
😭😭😭
life regen is an integer
Anything that pierces
like does the galaxia circle swing thingy count as pierce?
good question
i think so
test to find out
Probably
Yea
Any projectile that can hit more than one enemy is piercing
and almost every attack is a projectile
except for like, the sword part of the vanilla swings like Enchanted Sword
should i use cosmic discharge
Cosmic discharge has insanely good DPS but it really needs you to stick close to the enemy
It's good for infernum yharon 2nd phase when he stands still to summon the fire rings around you , but Galaxia is better overall if you wanna just use one weapon
Cosmic Discharge is insanely strong
i can never his the boss with it tho
also would it be a decent idea to use darksun ring with brittle star staff
bc each brittle star minion gives an extra 5 defense
its 1 regen
Exactly, which is why I said galaxia is better for most of the fight, with cosmic discharge being best when he stands still in phase 2 to summon fire rings and shit
Unironically I think trying to land it on the meth-addled being that is infernum yharon is less worth than the benefit you get from the stun
cant i farm bereft vassal
no but i killed him and now i need to go out of that dimension and back in?
i need light/dark shard
He drops an item that lets you teleport to the portal
Yeah,. it's only 1-2 seconds but it exists
best setup for infernum dog? im on attempt 3 already and this is getting annoying :/
what class
summoner
mmmmmm
also full warding could be a problem right
?
