**Make Hybrid Classing More Viable**

Hybrid classing is an incredibly underutilized aspect of Terraria, while a player could easily dedicate themselves to a single class throughout the entire game. They could also try using 2 classes at once so that they can reap the benefits of both, though they might forego some things such as some damage or accessory bonuses.
I feel like most mods ignore this because they assume that all players will just pick one class and use exclusively that class instead of going for 2 at once. And I want more modders to realize the potential of what could be done with encouraging a player to go with a hybrid class.

**Rework Weak Petrification**

Ravager inflicts the Weak Petrification debuff in phase 2 of the fight. It halves your flight time, which isn't anything special, but it also disables double jumps, which is distinct from every other boss fight in the game.
Obviously, preventing people from using a movement option entirely is dumb, so the debuff should be changed to not simply kill double jumps.

It can still nerf them if it wants - maybe you only have half as many as usual, maybe their max height/speed is halved, maybe they're just slower - but it shouldn't kill an entire mobility playstyle and cripple hybrid setups for no real reason.
Especially when considered in the context of the other half of the debuff, -50% flight time (which only nerfs wings, not disables them), nerfing double jumps makes much more sense than disabling them entirely.

**Let Laboratory furniture items be shimmered into their Aged variants**

As it is now, you have to manually decraft the Laboratory items, shimmer the plating into Rusted Plating, and then craft them back into the Aged variants, which can be a bit annoying. By letting Aged variants be shimmered into their regular Laboratory variants (and vice versa), it'd be quicker to figure out which furniture you'd want to use for a build.

**decrease the amount of blood orbs used in purple haze's alternate recipe**

**Make Heart of the elements a summoner weapon instead of an accessory**

It had a long history of being a famous multiclass accessory but recently, its only been used as a somewhat summoner weapon in a form of an accessory. With all the nerfs and changes, it feels more like a summoner weapon/decoration except it heals. I don't see many people using it but summoners only extra dmg, in which isn't what an accessory should just be used for imo.

So I think it would be good to chuck it in as a weapon category and have it be its own summoner weapon.

**Rename Lunarian Bow and add another bow to it's recipe**

As what is essentially the ranger version of the Night's Edge, I feel like it's quite weird how the Lunarian Bow not only doesn't need 4 weapons unlike the other 3 'nights' weapons, but it also doesn't have 'night' in it's name even. Adding another bow to it's recipe and changing the name would make the weapon fit in better with it's counterparts.

**Change debuff amplifier item tooltips to be more representative of how they work**

All debuff amplifier items say something along the lines of "Multiplies (type) debuff damage by (number)x". While the inner workings are slightly unclear, debuff amplifiers of these types are Additive with eachother, not multiplicative, as in having two amplifiers of 1.25x would result in 1.5x total instead of 1.25x^2.
A better way to communicate this would be changing these tooltips to something along the lines of "Increases (type) debuff damage by (number)%". This is already the precedent for additive damage% increases, so it should make it easier to understand how the items work.

Cosmolight is an early Hardmode item that lets you skip time. It also just so happens to be a homophone of Cosmilite, the post dog material. Homophones are notoriously confusing, so I ask for a rename of Cosmolight to make it not sound like its the same thing as Cosmilite.

This is a common issue with custom world sizes, depending on the height, the sea's background is unusually high up, to the point you can see the normal ocean background.

**Rework arc of the cosmos's dimension snip**

the arc of the cosmos is great, the attacks are flashy and the damage output is decent. however, one problem this weapon has is the special up-rmb attack it has after a parry.
its pretty slow and the damage is lackluster for it to be viable to use.
this is strange because the first weapon to utilize this up-rmb feature has the best example of this, and that weapon is the arc of the ancients. the beam fired is instant, deals great damage, and is viable in almost every situation, but most importantly, it FEELS powerful. this somewhat extends to the arc of the elements which retains some of its use against providence and her guardians, but the arc of the cosmos' up-rmb basically reuses the one for AotE. it doesn't feel powerful to use either. one fix I see for this is making the snip-beam have a judgement cut screen effect, perhaps (as a suggestion) even making it into a full-on judgement cut by twirling the scissor blades with a slight startup.

**Rage Rework**

I think it's safe to say that most people only use rage during boss fights, or maybe during events like the Pumpkin Moon, despite the fact it has potential to be used pretty much anywhere.
This can likely be attributed to the fact that it can take a while to charge if you're not right next to an enemy, and also may not really ever feel worth it to use only on a few enemies; who knows, maybe in a minute you'll be facing far more and would have wanted the rage you just used?

To try and make it easier to make use of, rage could be changed to charge faster outside of boss fights, or have more aggressive scaling.
Additionally, you could gain a percentage of your rage meter every time you take damage or kill an enemy or do some specific action while under the effects of rage, to make it feel less like a waste when you're fighting enemies that are spread out chronologically.

**Retier Zenith to post-DoG**

Currently, post-DoG is filled with upgrades to vanilla items like the SDFMG, Corvid Harbinger Staff, Empyrean Knives, and Phangasm. Having the Zenith be tiered alongside these other weapons would be very thematically fitting as the culmination of vanilla's melee weapons, as well as contrasting better with the Ark of the Cosmos on the very next tier. Admittedly, Zenith is quite a good weapon on post-Yharon, but other melee weapons on the same tier would be more than enough for melee to remain quite good at post-Yharon.

**Make Phantasmal Spheres not deal damage immediately upon spawning**

Phantasmal Spheres are an attack that are spawned by Moon Lord's hands. After spawning, they travel a bit upwards and after a bunch have been spawned, get fired in a group, which deals alot of damage. However if you want to stay at a close range to Moon Lord's hands, chances are you will be hit for the same amount of damage as you normally would, while not being able to sightread it in the slightest. This is due to them dealing damage immediately upon spawning.

This attack is not able to be predicted in any way and can take huge chunks of your health bar with fair ease. Making it not deal damage immediately would make this attack more predictable and fair to people who stay at close range.

**Rework Silenced**

Silenced is a vanilla debuff that prevents you from using mana. This unfairly targets mages; the weakest class in Calamity at this time. Besides some active summoner weapons, mages are the only class that use mana, and this is the only debuff that explicitly targets one class, not to mention it nearly being a full stun for them.

While there are many debuffs from Vanilla that arguably should not exist, this one is the biggest offenders due to its incredibly targeted nature. This also contributes to Calamity's problem of requiring the Asguard ramdash line to include Ankh Shield just to stop these nuisances from affecting a lategame player. Part of fixing this would be to rework the debuffs themselves to be interesting, so you don't need to constantly be immune to them. Making it do something that affects all classes, like temporarily disabling crits, or just making it less extreme, like reducing mana regen, magic damage, or magic crit chance would be far better design.

Its not really suited to be used against bosses at its tier, sitting at F tier.

However it acts like a bonk dash, providing great mobility.

Making it classless and using it for its great mobility behaviour could benefit the summoner class, giving a great mobility tool while not affecting minions with the summon damage penalty.

It would stretch the available opinions for a viable mainhand, which still arent too big right now, including the whips and eye of Magnus for example.

This change would give it a use, making it a viable option.

**Make Pyre Mantle Walls Obtainable and/or Craftable**

Unlike all other blocks that comprise a level of the Abyss, the Pyre Mantle Wall is singled out to be unobtainable as an item, while blocks such as Voidstone Walls and Abyss Gravel Walls are.

**Rework Blinkroot and Shiverthorn's blooming**

As it is now, both of these plants bloom completely at random. This makes them very frustrating to work with, since the game can just decide to not let Shiverthorn or Blinkroot bloom. This is especially bad for Blinkroot, which is a key ingredient in many important potions like Swiftness, Spelunker, and Endurance. By changing their blooming conditions to something consistent like the time of day, it'd make farming them significantly less painful.

**Communicate the Boss Slowdown Cooldown to the player**

Slowing debuffs do* work on bosses, but with an asterisk - only once every thirty seconds. This 30 second cooldown is not only not mentioned or explained anywhere in game, but it's also not even visible anywhere.

To remedy this, there should be a way to visibly communicate the cooldown for boss slows/stuns. A straightforward and intuitive way to do this would be to create a sort of cooldown rack (like the one the player has) for the bosses specifically that could appear alongside their healthbar, but you could also have the cooldown appear above the boss itself, or show it in a variety of other ways.

**Add Alternate Star Cannon Ammo**

Calamity adds a few star cannon upgrades/sidegrades. They do interesting things such as shooting plasma blasts or shooting plasma blasts and stars. If these weapons are not planned to be reworked, adding alternate star cannon ammos could help make these weapons more interesting considering their already bland functionality, which would make them good candidates for more ammo since they could replace those basic stars. This could also be used to make the base Star Cannon and Super Star Shooter more interesting as well.

**Using Other Types of gel for Flamethrowers**.

I would like to be able to use not only the regular gel as ammunition for flamethrowers. The game has pink, deadly, purified gels, and you can add your own features to them. For example, for pink gel - an increased attack area, for deadly - additional projectiles during an attack, and for purified - a small regeneration during an attack. This would add a new use to rarely used materials, as well as versatility for the flamethrower.
I hope you listen and add this to the game. Thanks.

**Rebalance the the Deific Amulet and its upgrades.**

The Deific Amulet currently feels like it doesn't really have a unique identity. It's just a buffed Star Veil, with nothing to make it stand out compared to other accessories on-tier.

**Improve Deific Amulet's VFX Design and Convey Its Effect Better to the Player**

Deific Amulet is strong. There's no denying that. If someone says it isn't they're wrong. But you can't exactly blame people for this, because unlike a lot of other accessories Calamity has added recently, Deific doesn't show that it's doing anything. Least of all because its functionality is identical to Star Veil, but with more iframes on a condition (something that takes place over the course of less than a second).

What Deific needs (beyond a reworking to its onhit projectiles) is a visual indicator that it is doing something for the player. Even a small sound or visual effect to show that it is doing something would be enough. And it needs to be flashy so people notice. Otherwise, people will keep saying it lacks identity because it is a defensive accessory, so it is overlooked or considered weak simply by its nature, especially to casuals.

I doubt a new combination accessory made of these bunch would be ideal, but even just expanding the tooltips to explain their role in the greater world of Calamity might help make them more interesting.

For clarity, this would mean that the Charging Station, Power Cell Factory, all kinds of Turrets, and any other Lab blocks that do something would be able to be turned off/on through wiring (obviously starting turned on when placed).

**Improve the potion crafting system with plants**

Currently, the easiest way to craft potions in Calamity is to farm blood orbs. Thanks to this, the plant system has faded into the background, and few people use it. For many players this defeats the purpose of the entire game mechanic,replacing it with the eternal invocation of blood moons and I don't think that's a good thing. You can add upgraded versions of the alchemy table and the staff of cultivation. For example, the post-mechanical upgrade of the alchemy table gives a 50% chance to not waste ingredients, and the post-Moonlord upgrade gives a 66% chance, also the staff of cultivation, upgraded after the plantera, collects plants at a greater distance, in a 3x3 radius and in larger quantities.

**Reduce the drop rate of the Wingman**

The Wingman's drop rate is 14.3% on Normal and 25% on Expert from the Martian Walker, a somewhat common enemy during the Martian Event. Everything else that drops from that enemy has a drop rate below 1%, which is a trend that repeats for every enemy that isn't the Saucer itself. It's more common than the conduit blocks by a good margin, and is matched only by shock grenades, a weapon that you need a lot of and that also stacks. The drop rate doesn't have to be reduced to sub-1%, but given how common these enemies are and how rare their other drops are, it kinda just clutters up your inventory for a gun you're probably gonna get anyway as opposed to several other weapons you might want which don't.

**Make Shattered Community Rage Mode Damage Buff Just Be 25% or Make Levels Uncapped**

The leveling system for the Rage Mode scaling damage buff seems almost useless as a concept since it can just be farmed to level 25 and get the max cap of 25% very easily. It could take a while, but generally speaking it is easy to do and just takes time. Of course it becomes harder to get more levels, but that just delays level 25 and does nothing to stop you from just farming it anyways.

As such, my main suggestion would be to remove the leveling system entirely and just make it give 25% Rage Mode damage since that’s basically what it already does anyways, it’s just annoying to farm to get this.

If removing the leveling system is not an option, I suggest either raising the cap or just straight up uncapping the leveling. Because it gets harder for every level added, at some point it will just be too difficult to level it anymore, which will discourage endless farming, but will still make it feel as if you can level it more.

**Make flightless mounts refresh flight time/meter when touching the ground**

This is a very simple change that could improve the utility of grounded mounts in boss fights.

How exactly am I using these mounts in order to have this be an active problem? When fighting bosses I tend to use grounded mounts to maintain dash momentum in the air, when when I land on the ground and jump back up into the air to fly, I find myself with no flight left in the meter and i end up taking a hit.

While this usage of mounts is odd, it also should make generally logical sense given gameplay. The reason i’d assume that mounts in general don’t replenish flight time is because synergy with flying mounts could allow infinite flight.

I believe that the removal of flight time refreshing on all mounts was going too far on Re-Logic’s, as it makes logical sense that a mount that has to be grounded to be properly used should also be able to refresh flight time.

in other words “You want to be able to touch the ground while on a mount, get your flight time back, then like jump and dismount and still be able to fly?” as said by cog, who put it in a better way that i did in all those paragraphs

**Give Midas Prime and Crackshot Colt a priority target on coin shots for enemies with highest Max HP.**

These weapons are really bad with events, exploration, or even some spaces with bosses because the random targeting of a coin shot delivers the high power shots into fodder enemies more often than the high-value target you'd mean to hit. These enemies usually have higher Max HP than their lowers- The Hive Mind for example having higher priority over Eaters of Souls or Devourers, Ogres and Dark Mages in OOA over most enemies, Pumpkings/Ice Queens/Flying Dutchmen/You get the idea.
This does fix the weapon's problem of the guns being pretty sad affairs over anything else around their unlocks being used conventionally but struggling to make use of multicoins or even single coins at times because of inconsistent targeting. This also makes the gimmick of the weapon feel inherently a bit worse. This is even something accounted for when using the Daawnlight Spirit Origin, being able to prioritize bullseyes, but that's also Post-Moon Lord for two weapons which are usable Pre-HM (Colt) and Early HM (Prime).

**Make the boss rush fights more like the fights during progression**

During the boss rush event most bosses just move at ridiculous speeds, causing most of the fights to just boil down to keeping distance to the bosses whilst avoiding some high velocity projectiles. Despite this, only the very last pose any kind of challenge.
I suggest that instead of the bosses speed being buffed the players mobility should be reduced depending on the boss rushs tier they are in. E.g. tier one would cap wing time at something comparable to fledgling wings, reduce dash and movement velocity, etc. I believe this would make the boss rush a lot more engaging, since the bosses unique fight characteristics wouldnt be lost in the way they are now.

**Make Yharon's first attack after a subphase transition consistent**

Some of Yharon's subphases (mainly in phase 1 from what I've observed) tend to start using their cycle of attacks by starting in a random order. If a player is playing aggressively and wants to damage Yharon as much as possible during these transitions, they are often put into a gamble: dash right after the transition ends to avoid the two short dashes? Or wait for a roar to dash? If you pick the wrong option, you get hit. If the post-transition attack started at the same spot in the order consistently, players wouldn't have to make this gamble.

# Auric Tesla Armor’s Magic Carpet should be activated like how wings activate their hover

Why?
It would allow it to have better versatility. Them only being usable after using all your flight time makes it more of a nuisance instead of a helping hand, lets say you’re going up while fighting a boss and the wing flight time runs out, it is a sudden stop in vertical momentum and you die. If you are on a grounded mount after losing your flight time and you wanna get vertical movement, you instead keep on the horizontal path.

Benefits
Changing this can help with builders. While sure they aren’t entirely in need of a temporary platform given the ice rod, it still can be another option. Also when using the momentum capacitor, the magic carpet allows you to zoom past 300 mph, but having to wait until after you use up all your flight time on your wings is ends up doubling the amount of time it takes to get to wherever with the capacitor.

God mode gives infinite mana to magic weapons, and journey mode in general allows you to duplicate endless extremely powerful ammunition for ranged weapons. Considering how godmode removes the limitations of all other weapons, I think this would make sense.

These mfs can spawn basically anywhere as long as you're in the underworld or hallow, sometimes u get like 4 of them at once and it's not like they're easy to kill with the equipment we have in that stage of the game (and they can also clip through walls for whatever reason)

**Remove the NPC spawn modifier config, and set it to 10x by default**

There's almost no reason to have this config at anything other than the max - there's no fun or content in being forced to wait for NPCs to respawn because you summoned the destroyer too close to your house. Removing it would reduce config bloat and make sure people don't miss it and be stuck with slow respawns. The variable could be kept in the code to allow other mods to change this, to avoid breaking anything.

There's almost no reason not to have it on at all times, and casual players usually don't check the config for it or don't understand what it entails.

This is important beyond just basic quality of life because it allows the Old Man to respawn without having to wait the entire night and next day, so Skeletron attempts aren't agonizing without Cosmolight.

Also, there are a few other arguably pointless config options that could help reduce bloat if removed.

These 4 items are absolute nightmares when it comes to balancing enemy drops or armor longevity. Want to make an item drop rare? Too bad, Zerg potions make it about as common as dirt. Want to make a utility armor set (like mining armor) have a downside when used past its progression tier? Too bad, Zen potions make enemies nonexistant. The same goes for Chaos and Tranquility candles. None of these spawnrate items are healthy for the game, and should be removed.

**Transfer the Mining Armor set bonus to Reaver Miner**

Honestly, it makes no sense to me that Mining Armor is arguably better than Reaver Mining thanks to the ore duping. It just doesn’t check out that a pre hardmode set should be better than the hardmode set trying to accomplish the same thing. Plus, regular Mining Armor is already very strong for pre-hardmode mining without the bonus. Transferring its set bonus to Reaver Mining gives more of an incentive to actually make a mining loadout as opposed to just using your regular armor with a mining potion and some food.

**Add Grand Marquis bait to the Golden/Titanium crate loot pool**

The vast majority of Calamity's playerbase does not know this item exists as it is only obtainable after completing over thirty of Angler's quests. By adding it in tiny amounts to someplace more commonly engaged in, it can hint at its existence to encourage players to fish more or to explore the wiki. So long as it remains rare, it will be an uncommon treat for players that don't engage with Angler as well as more reason to think about him if they wish to get more. This also has the very niche benefit of giving a more easily obtainable source for journey mode players to use to begin researching Grand Marquis bait.

**Inform players of Calamity vanilla balance changes on weapons and equipment**

Calamity rebalances a lot of different items. This can be confusing to new players and experienced players alike, as it takes a decent bit of time to find those balance changes on the wiki. Having the changes visually noted in-game (specifically as a part of the tooltip) would be quite helpful, especially for expressing changes that otherwise are completely invisible (such as the Zenith being exempt from pierce resistance).

The most likely and helpful way I would see this implemented would be similar to what Fargo's Souls does.

**Take general action to reduce the sprite size of non-melee weapons where possible.**

(This could take the form of a vanity item to shrink weapon sprites, or just resprite with this as a main consideration.)

Especially in the late-game, there are several weapons which are considerably larger than the Terrarian, and are held out while in use. Examples include Subsuming Vortex, Vivid Clarity, most weapons in the Void Vortex tree, Aether's Whisper, Omicron, and many other such examples. (Omicron completely obscures the Terrarian while it's being used.)

While having a physically bigger weapon offers obvious benefits to melee users, for every other class, this effectively makes it harder to determine the Terrarian's hitbox whenever the weapon is used for no actual advantage. Therefore, in future, I'd suggest that this be a core consideration in resprite decisions or at least addressed in some way.

Right now, only a select few ranged weapons say what ammo type they use in the tooltip, such as flamethrowers or some launchers. I suggest having a line in the tooltip for all ranged weapons to tell you the ammo.

## Add a chance to save ammo by default for the Blossom Flux

Unless you're using an endless quiver; any arrow is consumed so absurdly fast, that an entire stack of 9999 arrows would be gone before you even make it halfway to a bossfight, this feels like an oversight, since every other weapon that consumes lots of ammo quickly (at least in vanilla) has at least SOME ammo saving chance by default, like the minishark for example which has a 33% chance not to consume ammo

I think the Blossom Flux should have at least a 50% to save ammo as right now it has none.

This actually seems to be an issue with several fast-firing bows in calamity.

# There should be another title screen next update that is akin to the base game title screen - as in just a biome’s background moving

Why?
It would be a good break from the other calamity titles screens (including vcmm) while still being calamity. While still images are nice, they can get boring easily and honestly are lame to look at. And I believe that base calamity should also have a bunch of different title screens, instead of all of the extra title screens being in only in VCMM. I mean there already is one new Title Screen being added for SSO, so why not have another?

How would it be done?
I’d imagine that for it to be a biome like the base game title screen, there’s only one Calamity biome that works well, being the Sulphureous Sea. Sunken Sea is already getting one, Brimstone Crags doesn’t have its own background, and Astral infection Isn’t as iconic as the Sulphureous Seas + kinda spoilers for hardmode, if that even matters. It could probably play wasteland or caustic tides as a background. Maybe even have it be raining in the title screen and have it play septication. But the only biome that works for this role is the Sulphurous sea.

**Reverse how charge works**

The charge mechanic for the arsenal weapons isn't very fun the way it is. However, I've thought of a way to make it good. Make charge weapons gradually increase their charge (and damage) when you hit enemies and gradually decrease charge when not hitting enemies. This way, the weapon works better the better your aim is, or the longer a fight lasts.

If charge is being changed or removed in a different way, this could potentially work as an accessory for any weapon instead.

**Allow the Charging Station, Power Cell Factory, and Encrypted Lab Schematics to be fished up in pools in/near Arsenal Labs.**

The base game allows us to reel in Alchemy Tables from any Dungeon waters, so there's no reason that Draedon's ditched machinery couldn't also be similarly obtainable with enough tiles, walls, and effort. Also applies to the Murasama, Prototype Plasma Core, Onyx Excavator Key, Suspicious Scrap, and Research Log Items.

Making these renewably obtainable in this manner has several benefits. It grants availability to Draedon content in any worlds that don't have them, whether that be from bugged worldgen, migration across Terraria/tmod/calamity versions, challenge runs, or any other reason. It also opens up several avenues of progression for the Calamity Skyblock/OneBlock enthusiasts out there, and it's good for builders and multiplayer worlds who just might want access to more copies of these items.

**Changing Astrum Deus's Mines Into Killable Entities / Enemies**

I think Astrum Deus is a pretty alright boss, but for a boss who has a ton of projectiles along with hunting you down with their two worm forms does make having an area denial move very annoying and hard to really come by. This suggestion aims to add a way to keep the area denial around as I think its still a core mechanic of the boss and adds difficulty.

I think the mines should be considered entities and should be killable, but with a fair amount of HP, likely ~8k in normal, 10k in exp / reven, and 12.5 in death/master. I think the tradeoff is that they should deal a fair more damage than they do currently.

I don't think this change would ruin the balance of the bossfight, but definitely make it more dynamic instead of the quite common area denial and then spam projectile bosses that.. a lot of calamity has.

If I remember right, Vanilla is also getting some Hallowed items in the upcoming update though, so I'm not sure how much adding one is needed if that tile can be copy-pasted or if Calamity could do with it's own Hallowed spin.
Point of the matter is though, this is insofar the only Ore type not to have a crafted Brick with it- something all other Calamity ores has (and some like Auric or Perennial having two!)

**Remove Colossal Squids from T3 Abyss.**

This enemy has extremely vicious stats for this area (only ~20k less HP than Moon Lord and just as much damage in a space with restricted movement), belonging more in the T4 area, and has attack patterns that don't give the player much leeway in the third tier as well as that it moves through blocks. The Ink Bombs accessory it drops is also dropped by Cuttlefish anyway, and thus only has a notable drop for post-Polterghast. Like, you know, T4 abyss enemies.
This enemy is just way too potent for where it is in the confines it is, where attacking enemies is actually useful due to being the main renewable source of Scoria Ore.
For reference- Gulper Eels have less than half the health, no defense (versus 50 on Squid), and long worm body makes it still fit as a punishment enemy for piercing or stray shots easily. A fine threat that isn't stronger than a on-tier mandatory boss.

**Add one or more launchers or launcher-adjacent weapons to pre-hardmode**

• Launchers are inherently unique, niche and underutilized in general. Introducing them earlier simultaneously gives opportunities to design instances of a weapon type with unique functions, traits, and usecases, and also introduces the subclass of explosive weapons earlier while allowing players more agency for the style of weapons they want to use.
• The more methodical and terrain-bound pace of pre-hardmode allows for more involved, gimmicky, or interactive launcher designs compared to the high speed of hardmode, where launchers are more blasty without much thinking. Pre-hardmode launchers could involve the physical space around you in more fun or complex ways.

# Calamitas and her Brothers should be given her own mask

But don’t we already have the Calamitous vanity set?
The calamitous vanity set is a full outfit based on her old more terrarian sprites. Her current sprite is shaped differently from the terrarian and NPCs, and even in the Calamity Texture Pack the NPCs aren’t getting changed to have their shape be similar to the Scal sprite (although it seems the only one so far is the Wizard and it may be subject to change). Therefore she is unique enough from the Terrarian to warrant a mask.

In Addition, she is the only Boss without a mask to her name.

Why her brothers too?
Whenever a boss is made up of more than 1 main entity, then the other entities also get masks. Notable examples are Anahita and Leviathan, Slime God, and Exo Mechs. While the brothers aren’t that big of a thing, you do fight them by themselves, and they are a major part of Scal’s fight.

(This suggestion is under the assumption that she lacks a mask due to being a Human character)

While other defensive options have been nerfed over time, the Nurse has barely changed—her only “downside” being a small cost increase that means nothing in Calamity’s non-existent economy. Her instant full heals are far more abusable than any potion or lifesteal weapon, creating unfun gameplay loops where players just build the safest cheese box for infinite HP instead of learning boss patterns or properly engaging with the fight.(second part problems were mentioned by @olive shale , "the very kind mod")

Glass is useful for mass bottles as well as building materials, and while some sands are renewable it's in a method that's inordinately expensive for a basic tile or rely heavily on Shimmer. Removing the need to strip farm out Deserts to have sand would help leave more natural landscaping for player buildings and give a little more use to the biome. As it stands now, only Desert Scourge drops renewable Sand- an incredible 5-15 per loot bag, which is also a good hassle to farm out considering the large number of other drops in it's bag.

We already have "early" kills allowed with enemies like Astrum Deus, Aquatic Scourge, and Levi/Anahita.

This would not only help with consistency by evening out the number of permanent life upgrades and permanent mana upgrades, but also help with their spacing. While life upgrades are placed pretty consistently throughout the progression of the mod, the first two mana upgrades are very spaced out, with the first one being available immediately after entering hardmode and the second one only becoming available right before moonlord. Therefore, I think it would be ideal to add another mana upgrade to bridge the gap. As for the point in progression where it could be added, I think an optimal spot would be after defeating the Calamitas Clone and/or Plantera, with these two bosses marking the middle point of hardmode.

**Improve Armor Mixing**

One of the more nuanced mechanics in vanilla Terraria is using separate, mismatched armor pieces for their straight statistical bonuses, at the expense of a set bonus. This made one’s choice of armor quite a good bit more complex and customizable.

With Calamity’s overall buffs given to set bonuses (and some sets that never had them at all getting some,) armor mixing has become significantly more niche and less desirable. To my knowledge the only merits of armor mixing come from the early game Wizard/Mystic set, Gi, and Flinx Fur Coat, the later Mollusk set, and the now-deceased Cirrus’ Dress. Beyond that armor mixing is an incredibly niche and rarely worthwhile mechanic to engage with even for advanced play.

While it is ultimately a good thing that armor mixing’s power be reduced from the oppressive state it is in in current versions of vanilla, seeing it all but completely absent makes for a missed opportunity for players wishing to optimize and customize.

Binoculars have potential to occupy a similar niche as slime gun, being a vaguely useful utility item. However, this niche is erased by the fact that it has a 2.5% drop rate from EoC.

The parry itself (the one that triggers the cooldown and negates damage) needs to be more valuable while also being actually doable as it is the main appeal of the Blazing Core and the Flame-Licked Shell. Having time to react and parry could also mean having time to dodge the attack. As of now parries are free damage given just running into an boss/projectile with good enough timing (no actual reflexes are needed) : the damage negation at this point isn't the main appeal. This is why i think a rework to parries in general would give them a better identity as an actual parry and increase the skill ceiling needed for it to work while not being just running into a projectile/boss intentionally for some damage.

**Add More Double Jump Accessories**

MOAB is nice, but covers only a small portion of the game.

Wings are the de facto method of movement for (almost) the entire game, which means that variance in mobility really comes down to individual wing stats. Even the most influential mobility accessories only serve to improve various different facets of wings.
The only leg of the game where an alternative mobility playstyle exists without being a pure gimmick is prehardmode, where the Bundle of Horseshoe Balloons is genuinely as good, if not better, than wings. Outside of that, it's either wings, or nerfing yourself with off-tier equipment.

Adding new ways to access double jumps (either new jumps completely or upgrades to existing jumps) would help fix that. They would provide a massive variety boost and encourage more people to play the game in new ways.
MOAB already shows that this works, as many people consider it a worthy sidegrade from traditional wings, rather than just a gimmicky novelty.

**Some way to guarantee (or improve chances of) a rare boss drop after enough attempts**

Some bosses have unique rare drops (usually 10% drops) that in some situations/builds, can be very desireable to go for (blossom flux, community, warbanner, etc). However, sometimes this can cause you to be spending a lot of time grinding a single boss over and over trying to get said drop, and with the longer time that u would need to spend killing a boss vs killing a normal enemy, it can feel like it takes a lot longer than it actually does, with each boss that doesnt drop said item afterwards making the situation progressively worse.
I beleive a potential rework could either be increasing the chance of the drop for every boss defeated that doesnt drop the item(s), or having an alternate way to trade for and/or guarantee that boss drop after sufficient amounts of kills have been achieved. As of right now rare boss drops tend to feel like a needless bottleneck when they are the upgrade you need for your build, and having some way to get out of a bad rng loop would be nice.

The main point is to tackle the issue of actual ranged variety later on, as the Dart Rifle's quirk in Vanilla allows you to take a different approach to area clearing and damage dealing almost like a sort of Artificer. This ends up going away after Moon Lord, where the focus is primarily on bows and guns with throwers and launchers having occasional upgrades. Not to mention the variety of darts themselves has limitless potential for expansion with how many materials are added by base Calamity, and how so many weapons receive upgrades from the post-Moon Lord boss drops already. Maybe even tying those upgrades to the Hive Mind tier that's being moved up to Post-ML in the future?

**Remove/Nerf the Sulfurous Sea acid bubbles' ability to do damage**

Put simply, it's just annoying and doesn't serve to make the biome more engaging. Fishing is made more annoying, as well as the Acid Rain, since the bubbles deal knockback, a hefty amount of damage (for an environmental hazard that's hard to predict), and poison you on top of that.

**Offer more interactable furniture for ambience and beneficial purposes**

As of current, Calamity primarily offers building blocks and furniture made from those blocks. This is great for building themed structures and making large biomes. However, Calamity does not offer very many furniture pieces that provide a benefit beyond decoration. Some players simply are not creatively aligned, and will often prefer stations that provide them a benefit when used. As of current, excluding fountains and monoliths, the only ones that fit into this niche are the Draedon furnitures for summoning Exo Mechs, the Wulfrum Lure, the Astral Altar, the Lantern Center, and the buff candles. Providing more options for this would be interesting to see, and could be enjoyable to use in a playthrough

This to me would add actual thought to the attack and would make the boss feel more on-tier, as currently duke fishron feels just a little easier than other post-golem bosses

**Add Post Moon Lord Crates to Allow for Fishing to Have Value in the Lategame but Prevent Crate Hoarding**

One of the big reasons for the recent change in crate loot pools is to avoid "crate hoarding", or basically fishing up crates in an earlier part of progression to be able to access the resources more safely and readily later in the game. There are obviously some arguments to be made about how relevant this even is in Calamity considering its complete lack of threats from basic enemies after the very early game, but the point is that this is the reason the change was made.

Thus, the easiest solution, which would also be in line with how vanilla handled this exact same problem, is to add new crates for the new leg of progression. Hardmode crates were added after people horded crates in pre-Hardmode, so adding new crates in post-ML in order to prevent people from just hoarding the Hardmode crates would allow Calamity to once again add drops from crates to the late game, and improve fishing loot tables again.

**Buff Calamity Crate pools**

Recently, Calamity made sweeping nerfs to Crate drop pools. I think a good portion of these changes vastly overcorrected on the issue of crates giving too much. The image provided is the drop list for Brimstone Crate, a HM crate for the Brimstone Crags. Notice that it literally does not drop ANY singular biome-related items, it just drops bog-standard crate materials. This made the Brimstone Crate worse than the Pearlwood Crate, which at least drops some items other than the classic materials. Among the crates, the only post-PreHM Calamity crate worth even fishing for is the Hydrothermal Crate, which drop Abyssal loot items.

Therefore, I would simply suggest adding significant amounts of biome-related loot back into the drop pool of many Calamity crates. because now a bunch of crates are just not worth fishing for anymore.

**Make the Rage buff increase mining speed.**

Rage, despite being a very readily available buff, is not immediately useful a lot of the time. Outside (rare) miniboss encounters, or very early on as a panic button against basic enemies, the buffs to combat it gives are rarely worth considering. While it is meant to be a combat buff, giving it a bit of exploration utility would serve it nicely, with how ambiently available it is while exploring.

Plus, while for the most part building is meant to be a peaceful endeavor (with several items decreasing enemy spawns/aggro being invaluable tools for this), a good portion of builds (especially arenas) are going to be teeming with enemies if you don't go out of your way to use these, and especially early game where these items are not readily available, adding the option to use your Rage for construction rather than mob clearing may be a benefit to early-game playthroughs.

Common labs have no seeking mechanism like the bio-centers do

Calamity’s gods do not fall under any of those categories: they are never referred to with their title since there are many god and they’re also generally much closer to the deities of ancient Greece and the like rather than those of monotheistic religions; it would make sense to use lowercase because said Greek-esque gods are written like that.

This would not only help with consistency by evening out the number of permanent life upgrades and permanent mana upgrades, but also help with their spacing. While life upgrades are placed pretty consistently throughout the progression of the mod, the first two mana upgrades are very spaced out, with the first one being available immediately after entering hardmode and the second one only becoming available right before moonlord. Therefore, I think it would be ideal to add another mana upgrade to bridge the gap. As for the point in progression where it could be added, I think an optimal spot would be after defeating the Calamitas Clone and/or Plantera, with these two bosses marking the middle point of hardmode.

**Nerf the Default Dash**

I believe that, in its current state, the default dash is way too overpowered compared to how it realistically should be. While having the option to dash without a special accessory for it is good, I don't think having no dash should be situationally better than having a dash. Not even counting opportunity cost (using an accessory slot on a dash vs freeing up an accessory slot by not using a dash), sometimes just the default dash will be preferred due to the shorter cooldown. The instant acceleration on basically 0 cooldown is way too powerful. Some bosses, like Brain of Cthulhu, will be made easier by straight up not using Shield of Cthulhu. Nerfing the default dash would make these other options more desirable.

Titan Heart also wants you to stealth, so anyone wanting to play a spam rogue is stuck with Statigel or a multiclass armor until they can get Daedalus after two mechs and Cryogen.
An easy solution would be to add a rogue headset to the ore armors. The ore set bonuses are identical and the sprites are simple, so this would be easy to implement; and it would fill in a very hollow progression line while allowing for build variety.

**Make the length of Yharon's charge telegraphs consistent**

When Yharon is about to do a fast charge, he will roar to telegraph it and charge after a small delay, which decreases as the fight goes on. In earlier subphases, Yharon charges approximately one second after he roars, but later in the fight he can charge around half a second after roaring. The player may get used to the longer delay early on in the fight which can mess with their muscle memory as Yharon approaches later subphases. As a result, the player can get caught off-guard by Yharon charging very shortly after he roars, which can feel unfair. The reverse can also happen, where the player gets used to dashing as soon as they hear Yharon roar, causing them to mistime their dash early on in the next attempt.

**Make more of a connection between Queen Slime and the Slime God**

Maybe show a brief cutscene after summoning the Queen Slime showing the slime god core forming into queen slime. Since there is now an intro cutscene being added for the BoC, I figured that it is not too out of the ordinary for calamity to add cutscenes to certain vanilla bosses like queen slime. This would show a stronger connection between the two slime bosses instead of conveying their relationship through a bit of text.

If that is too much though, then either add something smaller, like only being able to fight queen slime after the slime god, or remove the connection entirely.

**Tweak Miracle Matter's Recipe**

To get the problem right out of the way, the materials for Miracle Matter as they are right now can be tedious to collect if you don't already have spares laying around. You have to fight through three buffed events, the Exo Mechs, Yharon, either the Celestial Pillars or Astrum Deus, CalClone, and then go out and mine four different ores (on top of the miscellaneous regular enemy drops). And in that, the events are both the worst part and are essential for the recipe in that they're needed for Ascendant Spirit Essence.

It gives you a (debatably) satisfying conclusion to getting those resources together like the Drill Containment Unit...the first time, but if you want to get all the weapons and you didn't collect those materials in bulk, you have to do it all over again! So if the recipe's to stay, I'd suggest changing it to unlock a simpler recipe for MM after the first one, but otherwise, it can be kicked to the curb.

After thinking about it, we felt like it would make the experience way convenient if Ravanger would give Blood Orbs in a way, since it makes sense to that point of progression to have an alternative to find it, like how Infernum make easy to farm Blood Orb with Dreadnautilus, since you can make their summon with Essence of Havoc and a Worm, items that are pretty reasonable to obtain

**Change the Recipes for the Devourer of Gods and Yharon's Summon Items**

Currently, these recipes are much earlier than where they're intended for so you can skip ahead in progression. That is a very good reason; Calamity would be a lot more boring with overly linear progression. However, the recipes are extremely misleading, both being easily made from boss materials three or four tiers before their fight plus some other miscellaneous stuff gotten at the same time or even before. It is extremely easy for a new player to see Life Alloys in a recipe and think that Yharon is intended to be right after Dragonfolly, or see Luminite and think that DoG is intended to be right after Moon Lord. There are some other stinkers in the list but I believe these two to be the worst.

I'll point to a good existing summon item: the Eidolon Tablet. To get it you have to go all the way to the third level of the abyss and be able to get a 25% drop rate while being surrounded by powerful enemies. It's difficult to get, it's out of the way, and it fits lore-wise.

Calamity currently has (to my knowledge) 3 hooks - Serpent’s Bite, Bobbit hook and Wulfrum Acrobatics Pack (technically not a hook but acts as one). This is a real shame - hooks are great for exploring, building, combat, and are just fun to use. They’re certainly a loved part of Terraria, and their lack of rep in Calamity sticks out when categories like mounts and pets are so varied.

Calamity has plenty of appropriate ways to integrate new hooks. Bosses like Astrum Deus, Polterghast or Storm Weaver could drop hooks or have hooks crafted from their materials. Calamity ores, structures and events could also have hooks. I’m sure whatever the devs might think of would be better than I could.

Most hooks wouldn’t need a unique ability; just shifting stats like maximum chains, eject and retract speed, etc would allow for neat integration with base-game hooks (some of which Calamity already adjust) and reduce the amount of time and effort to develop.

simply put, for the amount of potions that explicitly require deathweed, this really does not feel good enough, especially for prehardmode, where this is by far the most noticeable, with no access to time changing tools your only option of speeding things up is hoping to get lucky on a blood moon, which is a fairly measly 11% chance and not particularly reliable, even if bloody tears make subsequent blood moons more consistent.

Other story based mods like fables and MoR have more advanced systems that are more than just text messages in the bottom left of the screen and it makes their characters stand out more. I’m not saying calamity needs a system as advanced as those mods, but it would be nice if the mod had something more than sporadic text in the bottom left of the screen during major fights like DoG or Draedon.

**Make Elysian Aegis a crafted upgrade**

Providence dropping 1 of 2 additional accessories depending on where you fight her is a strange and outdated mechanic, reflected in 2.1 with her dropping both at all times. Bosses usually only have 1 accessory that's Expert exclusive, so 2 more regular ones is a bit overwhelming.

Elysian Aegis makes perfect sense to be a craftable upgrade to Asgard's Valor, fitting thematically with Divine Geodes and making it clearer that it inherits all its effects. you would also need to tweak the recipe of Asgardian Aegis, but that's a very minor change.

The reason why is because real Bobbit worms are getting their name changed to the "Sandstriker" worm. This is because the old name was a part of sexual abuse case at the time. I was thinking maybe "Void striker" worm or "Lumin-striker". I dont really mind what its named to, but changing its name may be a cool idea, and a good chance to name it something really cool.

**Add RGB Keyboard support, similar to Terraria's base biomes and bosses!**

For those that are unaware, Terraria has support for many RGB-enabled keyboards and other peripherals, allowing them to shift to colors/animations to reflect the biome you're in or the state of the game! Would it be possible to implement these into Calamity? It could be an interesting level of immersion, like having your lights change depending on the background of Rev DoG's fight, or Yharon's summoning! I'm not sure how easy this is to alter, however I think some mods have done it before? (Wrath of the Gods has some custom keyboard visuals iirc, its been a minute since i've done that fight!) But yeah that's my suggestion! It's a little broad and has zero impact on gameplay or quality but I'm a huge fan of dumb cute details like RGB stuff

Supreme Witch Calamitas Enrage in Brimstone Crag

Calamitas in lore has a significant history with the Brimstone Crag, having been partially responsible for them. Her town NPC form also dislikes the Brimstone Crag, and her happiness quote when there shows she really doesn't want to be there. However, as a boss she doesn't interact with the biome at all. It would fit the lore better if she were to enrage when in the Brimstone Crag, and possibly prevent summoning her there.

**Prevent the Perfect Dark/Vein Burster's projectile from sticking to platforms**

Perfect dark's projectile has the semi-unique property of sticking to blocks and platforms. While this seems like a good thing, the projectiles sticking to platforms specifically really hinder the weapon's performance in a way that feels unfair and unintentional. The projectile sticking to blocks is fine, just not it sticking to platforms. Removing this would make the Perfect Dark a more solid option for fights like Queen Bee and Skeletron, where the player will likely have multiple rows of platforms. All the problems listed above apply to the Vein Burster as well.

**Make Life Fruits (or equivalents) spawn outside of the Jungle**

In vanilla, life fruits spawn in the jungle because they are meant to be collected right before plantera. However, calamity has them spawn way before the player needs to go to the jungle.

Add Life Fruits or equivalents that spawn in a few major biomes like the ice biome and hell at the beginning of hardmode instead of just in the jungle. The player is encouraged to explore these two biomes anyway at this stage of the game to get materials for bosses like cryogen and the brimstone elemental, so it would be more convenient if they could max out their life to 500 while exploring those biomes instead of going to the bloated jungle.

The jungle already has enough going on in mid to late hardmode, like killing plantera, golem, and PBG, so it would be nice to not be forced to go this hellish biome even more than the player has to in order to upgrade their life to 500.

**make skeleton merchant's calamity items sold based on moon phases**

as of 1.4.4, of the ~30 items skeleton merchant can sell in vanilla, all but 5 are based on moon phase, this serves to prevent bloating the npcs item pool, as well as giving value to encountering them past the first few encounters.

meanwhile, contrast this to the items calamity lets the skeleton merchant sell, all of which are sold at all times, provided you're at the correct stage of progression

this, besides just feeling incredibly inconsistent, ends up causing the exact problems vanilla attempted to avoid, the skeleton merchant shop is often bloated with a large array of items, and the value of finding skeleton merchants past early game is diminished, this is especially noteworthy given many of skeleton merchants new items for sale are alternate obtainment methods to preexisting items, virtually all of which end up being arguably much easier than their actual intended obtainment, undermining said obtainment methods.

**Make P-TSL Short Circuit's hook collide with tiles**

While i greatly enjoy the right-click hook attack, it may be a bit confusing with how the projectile works. It can pass through tiles, but cannot hit enemies if there's tiles in between them and you. This can lead to situations where you're not quite sure why the attack isn't landing, because sometimes you don't notice any barrier. Making the hook able to hit enemies through tiles would be way too strong, so i think it colliding with tiles is a good solution.

**P-GSS: Auger should hit through walls.**

With the limited range, and the graphic visually appearing through walls, it's very annoying to figure out how the weapon actually hits, when in cramped, underground locations such as the underground jungle or dungeon. I found myself struggling to hit Man Eaters in the Jungle or Cursed Skulls in the Dungeon due to visually seeing the blade pass through them, but simply not landing a hit. With its relatively short range, I don't believe this would be a balance upsetting change to implement, and would remove the disconnect between the weapon's visual and gameplay.

The Night's Ray is based on the Night's Edge, a weapon made from materials from important places in progression for melee and from weapons at multiple points in progression. The Night's Ray on the other hand uses several early prehardmode weapons from mostly unimportant places. Changing the Amber staff to the Hellwing staff (and maybe the wand of frosting to the mana rose or Hyphae rod) would make for a more interesting recipe.

You could also just replace one of these, seeing as the Amber staff is pretty cool.

**Give the Cart of Gods the effects of the Demonic Hellcart and Minecarp**

As the end all be all of Minecarts, and stronger than even the stats given by the Minecart Upgrade Kit, Cart of the Gods seems like the ultimate minecart. Except it’s… basically just another stat stick that centralizes all cart design again.

I understand it’d be difficult to edit the Minecart Upgrade Kit or to add an upgrade… to the upgrade… so perhaps, at the least, Cart of the Gods could feel like the real endgame with carts. Mechanical Cart was still lacking two abilities when it used to centralize the game; 7 seconds of lava immunity, and immunity to water physics from the Demonic Hellcart and Minecarp respectively. I suggest simply adding these stats to Cart of the Gods so it really has that endgame feel, while giving the player access to all the benefits befitting of an endgame upgrade.

** Retier or Remove Weapons That Immediately Upgrade After a Single Boss/Tier**

Calamity currently has several weapons that come immediately after their predecessor. Monsoon to Alluvion, Horseman’s Blade to Baleful Harvester, Xenopopper to Vortexpopper, and Starwrath to Galactus Blade are some examples. Immediately upgrading these weapons often can overshadow the predecessor, or make the upgrade feel redundant. Occasionally, the upgrade is also simply worse too, despite both weapons debatably being balanced. Although they could be considered side-grades in some cases, Calamity has generally tried to move away from weapons upgrading so quickly over the years, including in the latest update. Galaxia was moved earlier in progression to give it more time to shine, and the same should be done with these similar weapons (or remove them if deemed fit).

**Standardize Desert Loot Between Chests and Crates**

Unlike every other biome, the Oasis Crate has nearly exclusive items despite a lack of mechanical reason for it. The most blatant is the Sandstorm in a Bottle. Considering Calamity adds Skyline Wings and locks Bundle of Balloons to post-Evil2, it only appearing in the not-guarnteed Pyramid once or with a 1/35 crate chance is inexcusable, especially considering multiplayer. However, the recipe Calamity adds makes them far too easy to obtain, and conflicts with the one added by vanilla. Sandstorm should stop being treated as special and just be added to chests to match its crate. It's not unique enough to warrant its exclusivity when Fart is just as strong, and Cloud and Blizzard are both chest loot.

The other is Scarab Fishing Rod which is a clone of Fiberglass but exclusive to crates. In order to fish up a Scarab Fishing Rod, you'll likely have something just as good, which renders its existence moot. It should just be moved to Desert Chest loot like its Jungle counterpart.

**__Remove all remaining vanilla item recipes__**

As it stands, the current remaining vanilla item recipes added by Calamity still heavily discourage world exploration and interaction with the game itself, disrupt game balance, and diminish the sense of accomplishment for crafting complex items. For example, being able to craft all of the materials necessary for Terraspark Boots doesn't encourage the player to explore the world or interact with alternate methods of obtaining these items (such as fishing) and turns the experience of crafting Terraspark Boots into an unfulfilling fetch quest, and disrupts game balance by making a powerful item accessible to all players very early on in the game. For balance and gameplay purposes, the remaining vanilla item recipes added by Calamity should be removed; this would forcefully encourage the player to interact with the world around them on a deeper level than what the mod offers in its current state, guide the players towards interacting with the game's systems (such as fishing), and re-transform a series of boring fetch-and-farm quests into a fulfilling, rewarding experience.

**Cut down on the amount of different weapon recipes that share a weapon material**

For some reason, there has been an uptick in recipes that share weapon materials. The most egregious example of this is the Magic Missile, which as pictured, can either upgrade into Night's Ray, Shifting Sands or the Sky Fracture, which also either upgrades into Infernal Rift or the Dance of Light. Additionally, Night's Ray and Sky Fracture are part of the Vivid Clarity's recipe tree.

This is rather annoying, especially as many of these branches don't branch off and/or end at the same time. This just encourages the player to shimmer their weapons constantly, or get multiple of the same weapon material to deal with this problem.

Personally, I think a lot of these recipes should either replace their shared weapon materials with something else, or better yet, do something like the Prince/Thorn Blossom did back when they were materials for the Vivid Clarity and have them ultimately share the same final weapon to upgrade into.

The reworked Frost Bolt is incredibly satisfying with how it creates a little explosion on every bounce. However, when the projectile pierces its final enemy (i believe it has 3 pierce), the projectile just disappears even if it hasn't made a frost burst. This feels like it takes away much of what makes the weapon feel so good to use, and ultimately a bit worse for crowd control if you dont intentionally utilize the ground. Making this change would make it more applicable outside of mostly underground scenarios and also feel more satisfying at the same time.

**Increase the fight duration of Devourer of Gods' First Phase.**

A trend that I've now noticed for a couple of dev cycles, both within Calamity and outside in terms of addons, is the reduction in fight time for DoG's First Phase in favor of the second. While I do really enjoy 2.1's boss revamp, I do miss how the fight was partially an endurance test due to its high HP and lengthy two phase fight.

The other aspect in this point of feedback is that due to the shrinking of the first phase, Scourge of the Universe plays for such a short amount of time compared to Universal Collapse (yes yes music related suggestion by me what a surprise). Being one of DM DOKURO's track staples, it should really have a larger spotlight in game through the first phase's endurance test. I don't think Phase 2 should be reduced mind you, just have Phase 1 last a bit longer.

Thanks.

While this is a sequence break and thus you should expect things to be wonky, the fact that every other weapon works except the Flak Toxicannon feels like an oversight.
Probably the easiest solution is to make the Arms Dealer sell Rocket I's if the Flak Toxicannon is in your inventory, as he's the goto for all sorts of odd ammo (explosive jack-o-lanterns, stakes, stynger bolt, etc), however plenty of other solutions would also work.

Several fights in Calamity are fairly chaotic in nature, while also having bosses talk to you during the fight. This makes it hard to pay attention to what is being said, especially since the text appears all the way in the corner of the screen, away from all of the action. This makes it pretty much only readable after dying or after the fight, severely undercutting the impact since it's meant to be read as the fight progresses, especially for scal and exos. Making it appear near the player would make it much easier to read in combat at a quick glance, without being too much of a distraction. DoG's rework demonstrates that this can work remarkably well; I think it would work very nicely for other bosses.

I suggest Calamity follow suit and change how these are obtained. Frost and Mana could grow in their respective biomes in the Overworld like Abigail's. Cinder could be dropped by Fire Imps since they already drop Obsidian Rose (and move Ashen Stalgtite to Hellbats; it would make way more sense for them to drop them than imps since bats would hang off them).

Crackshot Colt is fine enough, but Desert Prowler just does not make sense without Desert Feathers. It literally has the feather in its hat, and nothing about it screams "lightning bug teeth" unless there is some kind of resprite planned, and the same could be said for Desert Spirit Staff as well. Stormlion Mandibles should be reserved for actual electricity related items.

I feel like a surface Desert enemy drop was a fine idea, and it'd be very easy to just make some kind of Desert Cloth Scrap or something to replace it.

The Fossil set is at the same tier, obtained from the same place, and has mostly the same stats. I think the two should be combined, and the desert prowler set should be made into a vanity set made of ancient cloth.

I have a problem with what and I've not have farmed a Caustic Tear in the Pre-hardmode, now i want to do the Acid Rain Tear 2 and I cannot because the enemies what i have don't drop me Sulphuric Scales to make the Caustic Tear.

I suggest that there be an enemy, or that normal enemies like the crocodiles in the Sulphur Sea drop sulfur scales to make the Acid Rain Summoner, or change the summoner recipe to a bucket of sulfur water or something related to the biome.

**Rename Providence Offense to be Consistent with the Other Guardians**

The others are Defend__er__, Heal__er__, and Command__er__; not Defense, Health, and Command. "Offender" doesn't really hold the same context as Offense-- meaning to make upset or commit a crime rather than be an aggressor-- so "Providence Attacker" would probably be the best choice. Having a quartet of Commander, Attacker, Defender, and Healer makes a lot more sense than Commander, Offense, Defender, and Healer. There're probably other names available but Attacker is just the most straightforward.

**Spread out or reduce the BoC’s ichor drops when its flies back and forth over the player**

The boss has one attack where it flies back and forth over the player, spewing ichor over them while firing blood projectiles to the left and right of the player. The many ichor projectiles it shoots can get clumped up together, and along with the horizontal projectiles coming, make the attack very overwhelming and a bit unfair for a mid prehardmode boss in my opinion.

Currently, Whiskey has no clear way of knowing if your damage is being increased or decreased, unless you count in your head (which you probably aren't) or look at the tiny damage numbers on the boss (something that can distract you).
An easy way to fix this would be to add a meter that shows the amount of damage you are getting from it, similar to the Warbanner of the Righteous.

**Redesign the Dungeon Archives to look and feel less visually cluttered**

The current design of the Archives gives the overall half arena, half lore structure vibes of the Vernal Pass, acting as a prebuilt structure to fight Ceaseless Void and Polterghast. However, with its platforms randomly strewn about, and a general lack of cohesion outside of the middle section, it fails to be an effective arena without a lot of modification (compared to Vernal's minimal modification to be an effective arena). Having the Archives properly align their platforms and actually stock the shelves meaningfully could allow the place to work in both visual design and arena usage.

**Add an extra bit of text on the Malice mode difficulty changer to emphatize that this difficulty is not intended to be balanced or taken seriously.**

With the recent difficulty overhaul, Calamity's difficulty for seeds such as FTW ("Legendary") has been given the title of Malice, a previous very hard difficulty the mod had that was scrapped.
This in of itself isn't a huge problem, it's just a funny nod to the mod's past. The problem is that it is somewhat misleading as seeing Calamity give a proper difficulty name and one that references a previous difficulty has seemingly given quite a few people the impression it's meant to be a proper "hardest difficulty", when in reality, it's explicitly designed as nothing more than a joke, with balance or quality control not being a concern for it, much like FTW itself.
I recommend adding a bit of text on the malice difficulty slider saying something like "This difficulty is not meant to be taken seriously nor is it balanced, play at your own risk", to hopefully let people get a better idea of what they're getting into.

Change Dimensional Drive’s Interaction with Platforms

Currently, Dimensional Drive can move freely up through platforms, however cannot move down through them. This is a problem for two reasons: a) This makes the Dimensional Drive feel more unfinished, which is a shame with its new visuals, and b) During on-tier boss fights, like supreme calimatas,(Dimensional Drive is an inherited ability in auric tesla armor as well) you can get stuck at the top of your arena during the battle when you really need to be able to get down out of the way. Overall, I think that this was an excusable oversight on the dev’s part, as brainstorm was a pretty big update, and I hope to see this fixed.

**Add more accessories that change the function of rage/adrenaline**

As of now, only 1 such accessory exists which is Draedon's Heart. This accessory replaces the adrenaline bar with a nanomachine bar which when filled grants you a large HP boost. Unfortunately, this effect is only used for 1 boss assuming you haven't fought her yet and the endgame, which leads to an underused gimmick with a lot of potency. This does not consider Shattered Community which slightly changes how Rage is generated but not its use, besides, it also has the same issue (being endgame) as Draedon's Heart.

Adding more accessories to change the effect of either ripper effects can lead to a higher diversity in playstyles. A few examples can be replacing rage with a slight defense boost or a higher critital hitrate. tl;dr: Draedon's Heart gimmick of replacing Adrenaline is an interesting gimmick used far too sparsely.

**Change bobbers with minigames to queue caught items until the minigame is failed.**

The current implementation of the bobbers is allowing "faster" catches by doing something within the water. Whether this be playing DDR (Wulfrum Bobber) or physically moving the bobber (Acrobatic Bobber, Volcanic Sinker), all of them appear useful for potential anglers. However, compared to normal fishing (where you just click when you see it move), their pull rate feels slower than their intended purpose, which may be unappealing. Changing these bobbers to instead grant one extra item for every successful minigame clear allow the slower fishing time to instead be tied to a steady increase in loot gained. Once the minigame is failed, all items are pulled from the water, which the Sonar Potion could potentially state beforehand.

**Remove "Immune to All Debuffs" Attribute from Most Major Bosses**

Vanilla Terraria spams this trait a lot on bosses like Skeletron, Lunatic Cultist, Destroyer, and, in turn, this ended up on a lot of Calamity's worms. However, at the same time, worm bosses like the Scourges, Storm Weaver, and Astrum Deus don't have this trait at all and are mostly fine without it.

My main point is that with Calamity's recent heavy focus on debuffs, the fact that so many bosses are entirely immune to them feels a bit weird and detracting towards these systems, and the fact that many similar bosses function just fine without this trait sort of proves that it isn't really necessary, so I suggest they simply be removed.

**Make Burning Sky affected by Rogue effects and apply a Whip Tag**

So at this point the Burning Sky is basically a running joke of a weapon. It was a melee sword that got reworked into a melee weapon that functioned like a mage weapon. It now for some reason gets ranged prefixes despite being a melee weapon.

To complete this joke I suggest making it affected by rogue effects, i.e. the Venerated Locket and Vampiric Talisman both apply their effects. It could even be given a stealth strike despite still being melee.

Additionally, I suggest giving an effect that is related to summoner. This could be a whip tag, or it could be something funnier like spawning additional projectiles that take up minions slots (of course they still do melee damage).

Of course these changes are basically designed to finish the joke and could be something else, but my overall suggestion is to find a way to incorporate rogue and summoner into the Burning Sky.

Honestly, while I get that the joke is about projectile melee weapons being not melee whatsoever, and taking the joke to its logical conclusion, I feel like it would be much better to simply... just rework the Burning Sky into something else. It would probably be a more impactful statement on false melee weapons if the most egregious example of such was reworked into a much better weapon.

It would be far more interesting to have each of the ankh shield components act as the Laudanum does for their specific debuffs, and have the ankh charm and shield themselves give the effect the Laudanum did.

There is an overall lack of consistency with the different furniture sets added by the Calamity Mod. The first is that some sets are completely missing certain pieces, such as there being no candelabra or clock for the anodized wulfrum set, no door or chest for the regular wulfrum set, and most of the sets which were added pre-2.1 do not have a toilet. Adding these missing pieces will improve the quality of using Calamity furniture when building.

Another inconsistency is that some furniture pieces, like acidwood, wulfrum, and exo chairs and toilets are 2x2 instead of the standard 1x2, which makes building awkward. A simple fix for the chairs would be to add normal size chairs for their respective sets, while the large versions could still be available as separate items.

I believe this is a bit self explanatory- they're melee weapons, and there's little reason to make them unaffected by melee size bonuses unless they are solely projectiles (eg. vampire knives, scourge of the corruptor). Currently, a number (but not all) of melee weapons, primarily those with special swings or listed as "other" are unaffected. While vanilla is inconsistent in this regard, even Starlight, which is far from a standard melee weapon, is affected by melee size by increasing its range. This is notable because even its upgrade, Lightspeed, is unaffected by melee size. Additionally, there is absolutely nothing ingame to tell the player what is and isn't affected, leading the stat to feel inconsistent and not worth specing into even if the player's current weapon is affected.

An interesting addition from calamity is custom recipes for items that use Clay and Dirt, allowing you to use the astral variants in exchange. The issue I have here is they aren’t part of a recipe group like “Any Wood”, but are instead two separate recipes. I just think it would be handy to have.

They are classed accessories that proc on classed hits. Even if it doesn't really matter since they'll be scaling off that damage anyway (why would you use a weapon that isn't the one you have the most damage boosts on?) it still would make these accessories feel more like they belong to their classes if they were changed to deal specifically the damage type that triggers the attack.

**Flip the Icicle Arrow Sprite in GFB**

Icicle Arrow needs something to make it stand out in comparison to other arrows. Thus, I suggest it is brought back to a point when it was truly unique, and flip the sprite so it's facing up in GFB compared to facing down like every other arrow.
Also, GFB has several references to the history and past of Calamity, and I'd say this is an iconic, if slightly niche, piece of Calamity history.

**Make the Void of Calamity fireballs target enemies**

The void of calamity is an accessory that gives a damage boost and makes random fireballs fall from the sky. It's not very good for the time you get it. I think a good way to keep its identity while buffing it would be to make the fireballs periodically launch from the player at nearby enemies, instead of randomly falling from the sky.

I'm not sure if this counts as "high effort" but gem tech armor is easily the coolest armor set calamity has to offer in my opinion. The only disappointing part is that it's locked to post exo mechs. I think nerfed variants of gem tech in the earlier game could be nice. Or, if that seems too high effort to implement maybe an accessory that can provide a similar effect to how gem tech works that would be meant to be used with classless armors. (could give flat debuffs to specific armor pieces if it becomes too unbalanced). don't crucify me if this seems impossible to balance

with the new reforge changes, getting the reforge you actually want is often tedious, random, and expensive, and feels especially bad when reforges sometimes give you stats that accomplish literally nothing for you, such as violent arcane and silent. Adding some method to shift the odds in your favor, be it easy or difficult to acquire, limited or not in strength, nearly anything would be an immense improvement over rolling a 1 in 22 a few dozen times until you either run out of money, give up, or actually get something you want.

**Make Accessory Count Consistent Between Master and Expert**

The point of increasing difficulty is to give yourself more of a challenge. When the game becomes too easy for you, you ramp up your challenges to meet your new skills. So, if difficulty is for a challenge, then why is it rewarded with more gear options in the form of accessory slots? For Classic to Expert you could argue it's to make room for the new accessories, but Master? It's just a step ahead for no reason. Cal is clearly trying to negate it with the Celestial Onion; in my opinion, it would be best to go all in and make Expert and Master have the same amount of accessories throughout the entire game.

**Standardize Celestial Onion's Accessory Slot to be more Consistent with Demon Heart and Vanilla Balancing Around Difficulty**

The long short of this suggestion is to make Celestial Onion a Rev+ exclusive item and to leave vanilla balancing alone.

Celestial Onion is weird as it's the only item to give an accessory slot in Classic, presumably due to the perceived higher difficulty of this section of the game. But Classic doesn't get an extra slot for Hardmode unlike Expert, so why does it get one for Post-Moon Lord? And why doesn't Master get one, by that same logic?

In Vanilla, extra accessory slots are tied to higher difficulties. In Expert you get +1 from Demon Heart, and in Master you start with +1 and get +2 with Heart. If Calamity was more consistent with Vanilla, then Rev should give you +1 with Heart, and +2 with Celestial Onion, and Death would give you +2 with Heart, and +3 with Onion. This would make Death stand out more as the difficulty with the most slots, as it continues to lack an identity, and would make slots more consistent with vanilla. The image below explains this more clearly.

**Replace the Vertical Ichor with more Blood Bombs**

The 2.1.2 update changed one of the BoC’s attacks. When it flies back and forth shooting horizontal and vertical projectiles, it now shoots occasional blood bombs that can be fired back at it.

Despite the bombs adding a unique element to this attack, they are underutilized to not overwhelm the player as there are two other projectiles in the same attack. If the vertical ichor could be removed and replaced with more bombs, it would flesh the attack out more instead of being yet another ichor rain attack. The bomb’s damage to the brain would be lowered so the boss wouldn’t be shredded.

This is the only attack that introduces the blood bombs, so I think there should be more of an emphasis on them.

As a builder, I'm surprised why this hasn't been added yet. Add a variant of rusted pipes that doesn't fuse with anything else, allowing builders to use rusted pipes to a higher degree of freedom when building. Since there aren't any other pipe block variants (other than wulfrum ones, which break after a short bit), so it's difficult to build any sort of interconnecting pipe network. Accent rusted pipes would fix all of these issues while also staying in the range of vanilla friendly tiles.

**Reduce Opacity on The Perforators' Medium Worm Gores**

I have often had a problem wherein Perforator Worm gores covered up the location of Ichor Blobs. In 2.1.0, the Medium Worm was changed to drop Ichor Blobs when segments were killed. I do like this change, it adds some consideration regarding where you kill the segments rather than just swinging until they die, but this makes the hidden ichor problem much worse. Because the Ichor and worm gores both drop where you killed the segments, the Ichor Blobs usually end up hidden behind the worm gores. I think that either reducing the opacity of the gores or otherwise making the Ichor Blobs visible from behind the gores would make this fight much more fun and less annoying, as it really sucks to get hit by a concealed projectile.

I had thought this was already guarded against, but it seems not. Falling star projectiles that are naturally spawned can go into the sulfurous sea water and not hit a tile. If a falling star ends up in the water and hits a friendly aquatic scourge, it aggravates it and begins a battle.

Changing this would reduce the risk of accidentally starting a fight with the Aquatic Scourge when the player may not be ready or may not want to fight it, and would make more logical sense, as the player has no bearing on where or when a natually-spawning falling star would appear.

X is damage taken, Y is damage received. 75% of defense, as the game is balanced around Revengeance. I assumed that damage reduction is done after defense calculations, like vanilla (according to vanilla wiki)

Assuming 5 accessories, no armor/other buffs, no rounding/damage fluctuations:
hard - 25 defense and 0 damage reduction
warding - 20 defense and 5% damage reduction
armored - 10 defense and 7.5% damage reduction

While not technically arsenal weapons, The Jailor and Surge Driver are very much draedon-adjacent weapons that look and feel pretty similar to the other draedon stuff. Also, neither of them make any sense at all with their ammo - one shoots laser beams and the other one shoots some kind of electro mines but they both use bullets for some reason. Removing their ammo useage would bring them more in line with the other draedon-related weapons in the game, make more sense with their projectiles and help to flesh out the fairly limited pool of endgame specialist ranged weapons.

I feel as a temporary thing recipes could be added for these items, potentially being Shellstone/Shellstone Slab at a heavy workbench for Shell Trim Brick, and Runestone at a furnace for Runestone Terracotta

This is mainly an issue for sets with both a "Helmet" and "Helm", which are way too similar and could be confusing given they mean effectively the same thing, with the Aerospec, Hydrothermic and Tarragon Sets all having both a "Helmet" and a "Helm" (with Tarragon additionally having a "Horned Helm", which I feel differs enough in name to allow it)
While this isn't terribly important (especially given they will eventually likely be retooled to not have helmets for every class) I feel tweaking their names could help to decrease confusion.
Some possible names for them could be renaming the "Helms" to "Greathelms", which would help distinguish them better than how they currently are

**Add a Transmutation Between Flower Boots and Water Walking Boots**

Similarly to how Magma Stone and Lava Charm can transmute between each other, Flower Boots and Water Walking Boots could as well. Both are somewhat important items that are boot themed, and currently have obtainability issues due to being part of significant crafting trees.

Mostly Water Walking in the Treads line. The current recipe is boring and easy, but the vanilla method is just annoying, requiring fishing for Ocean Crates, which have one of the worst loot pools in the game (Flipper is… fine, I guess?). Jungle meanwhile, has an amazing loot table. Considering Flower Boots do not go into a long crafting line like Treads, being able to turn them into Water Walking Boots would be a much easier way to get them, as well as allowing people to gather other useful loot in one of the largest biomes, rather than pigeonholing them into one of the least support biomes in the game, because reworking the Ocean is just not within Calamity’s purview, nor its responsibility.

**Unnerf the Slime Mounts' Horizontal Acceleration**

Calamity has a mount nerf applied to specifically the slimes (thank god the horse one is gone at least), and I genuinely cannot figure out why at this point. Gelatinous Pillion, Slimy Saddle, and Pogo Stick all have their horizontal velocity reduced.

I don't know why because the most problematic part of these mounts is their vertical velocity, or fall speed, of which only Pogo Stick has a nerf to. If these mounts are too strong for fastfall, nerf their fastfall, not their horizontal movement. All this does is make it so you can't walk with them, and, in fact, tunnel you more into only using them for their fastfall. This is the opposite of what Calamity should be trying to do with mounts.

But there is one critical mistake you made: You did not make this upgradable in any capacity. You have no reason to use this weapon if beyond the beginning of the game in any conceiveable away.

**Rework Lightspeed's right click**

The current design of Lightspeed's left click is perfectly acceptable, acting as a Post-Moon Lord version of the Starlight. Both weapons function well in this standard.
What I consider confusing is the right-click; whereas Lucrecia built meter over time to shoot a projectile, Lightspeed instead trades this out to perform a ramdash forward.
Unlike its former (with Lucrecia's projectile doing a lot of damage) and its latter (Exoblade's rebound slash doing dramatically more damage), Lightspeed does not gain any benefit from dashing through the enemy. Instead, it would rather stay near the enemy to farm Mastery.
I believe reworking the dash to instead slam the player into the foe (rather than through them) would allow it to fit in better with its line and work more in tandem with its design.

example: random pool (atk2, atk4, atk1, atk3) -> cycle attacks -> random pool (atk3, atk1, atk2, atk4) -> cycle attacks -> repeat

This would eliminate the problem of spamming the same moves while still keeping it random and allowing the boss to cycle through every attack.

I generally like how the Exodium Planetoids work. They're simple yet effective, and reworking them would be silly considering they're made to be destroyed. But one thing that's always stood out to be as strange is the presence of stone walls. They don't even fill in the whole shape of the planetoid either, but rather are drawn in strange patterns that are similar to the ore generation in forest planetoids. Furthermore, unlike any other natural wall, they drop when hammered. I suggest fixing this inconsistency by making them generate in a circular pattern behind the main body of the planetoid, and replacing them with natural walls that do not drop when hammered. Alternatively, this could be fixed by removing the walls entirely.

**Rename Mourningstar**

Calamity’s mourningstar weapon is somewhat old, predating the existance of vanilla whips (I think), and as a result since theres now a vanilla whip named morning star it’s name is now confusing with them only being one letter and a space different

Sometimes, Yharon does not roar before exiting a bullet hell phase by dashing, which is rather offputting to players who got close up to him after there were no longer bullets around him and completely unable to know when it's safe to prey on him and when it's not safe. Making Yharon always roar before dashing out of a bullet hell phase makes getting close up and taking advantage of the attack a more viable option.

Reduce the intensity of the orderbringers projectile effects

I have tried using the reworked orderbringer and have noticed that it feels cluttered. The projectiles obstruct too much of thescreen at once. Normally the sword attacks at a medium speed but since it’s post Yharon the gear will heavily increase melee speed making the projectiles way more frequent. The issue is the orderbringers effects are overwhelming due to the amount of the projectiles.
I feel the shockwave also has effect since it’s a larger projectile and the main issue with it was the trail it produced being far too long and also covering up the screen.
I’m not sure if this solution would work but I thought That reducing the transparency to make it translucent with the shockwaves effects and trail and maybe the same for the star projectiles.

**Streamline Early Stat Potions for Post-Moon Lord**

While potion obtainment is a big part of balance through pre-Hardmode and Hardmode, by post-Moon Lord, where bosses take dozens (and for some, hundreds) of attempts, they become a chore, but balance is still designed around having them.

Unique potions like Inferno or Gravity should still have niches, but for minor stat potions, some other way to obtain this slurry of effects feels appropriate for this stage of the game. Archery, Mage Power, Ironskin, Regeneration, etc. ...All of these are just numerical increases. Much the same way Cosmolight lets the player control time for getting this far, these small but necessary stat buffs should have something as well.

You can already see this being done with Aureus Cells, so I feel that doing this for the early stat potions isn't a stretch. I know Blood Orbs exist, but it's just as annoying to craft the dozen of them. One, challenging-to-obtain potion that replaces all of these would be far better than how scattered they are currently.

CI is a singular summon that takes up ten minion slots while none of its components work like that. On the contrary, some of the lower tiers of the FoM line do actually function as single use summons. Post-Exos has a lack of "army" summon weapons to use, forcing the player to pick between commanding four arms or a single energy thingy rather than being given a choice to just have a load of minions at their beck and call. Making CI work like this fills this niche and keeps it in line with its predecessor while its current one can be filled in by FoM's upgrade. Furthermore, adding another Exo to Summoner would help balance out the total amount a bit more, also allowing for more freedom of choice if a player naturally wants to use these endgame weapons that act as a cumulation of their journey.

**Make the Amalgam recipe use debuff-based accessories rather than materials**

Right now, the Amalgam boosts all elemental debuff damage by 200% and grants a bunch of specific debuffs. This seems random, for the simple simple reason that its only material accessory is functionally just a dodge accessory that summons a projectile on iframes. The only justification for these debuffs is a bunch of seemingly random materials that most aren't going to realize are actually connected to the debuffs the Amalgam provides.

I personally think that, to make this accessory not only make sense with the unusual direction it takes from its sole downgrade accessory, the Amalgam's recipe should utilize the various debuff-based accessories that Calamity provides throughout the game; for example, the Frost Flare and the Alchemical Decanter would be great alternatives to just using the Plague Cell Canister and Luminite Bars.

This could additionally make the Amalgam also inherit some of the extra effects these items give, but that's optional.

**Rework Rotten Brain/Amalgamated Brain to be more Debuff Oriented like The Amalgam**

The Amalgam recently recieved a rework, which included several changes, including it now causing all attacks to inflict several powerful debuffs, and increasing elemental debuff damage by +200%. This is a great change, however it does kind of come out of nowhere, with the few debuffs that its downgrades inflict being minor elements of the accessories, with brain of confusion sometimes inflicting confusion (which isn’t even a DOT debuff) and rotten brain inflicting Brain Rot, which is not really major enough to justify the focus the amalgam ends up putting on DOT Debuffs.
I suggest that Rotten Brain, and in turn it’s upgrade Amalgamated Brain, are changed to have more focus on debuffs so the amalgam being debuff focused makes more sense. This could also make the rotten brain more enticing than currently as it lacks a focused identity, and maybe making it benefit debuff builds could make it better.

The direct upgrade, the Jaws of Oblivion that uses the souls of the ruined to shred monsters, that i spent like 3 hours grinding in the PAIN abyss for, is just a kunai 2.0 "spit some blue stuff". this a scam mane, if you just copy paste the code from levi teeth and change the color to blue it would be SICK, maybe using the same explode on contact code from the current version to apply to the teeth (but nerfed ofc). removing the absolutely epic chompers is so sadge mane:( JUSTICE FOR JAWS

I was fighting The Twins with a Marksman Round strategy, and noticed that my ricochet shots were missing pretty frequently due to their dashing.

An item that is meant for ease of use was, ironically, working against me. Grape Beer and Marksman Rounds come online at the same time (early hardmode), so this could be a highly viable combination that is held back by the mechanics of Grape Beer. This change will maintain its function across the board (taking aim out of the equation) and enable this potentially fun synergy.

For being the third set in the triangle of summoner subclasses, sentries are horribly represented by Calamity in terms of gear. If you want to boost your sentry slots in any capacity, you need to use vanilla items exclusively. As you progress later into the game, using OOA armors/accessories and Stardust Armor becomes less and less of a realistic expectation for sentry fans to do. If there are problems with adding more summoner equipment, armors just adding a sentry slot or two to existing post-ML ones like Stardust does would be enough. For accessories, reworking one of the "+1 minion slot & debuff" accessories (or anything else really) to give a sentry slot either instead of or with it would be enough for that.

**Remove or Move Some DoG/Cosmilite Melee Weapons**

DoG is pretty infamous for having an overabundance of weapons, and it really shows for Melee.

If you throw in donor weapons that totals to seven (7) DoG-themed melee weapons and nine and a half (9.5) total on tier [Prismatic Breaker is half-melee.] If a player happens to like more than one of these weapons, they're practically forced to do multiple playthroughs or awkwardly switch weapons during the Yharon fight. On the contrary, there are plenty of tiers that players could not like anything at all and be forced to use one of those. Lastly, an overabundance of weapons on a tier can lead to a load of effort trying to keep all of them up to modern standards just for people to still not use them over other options.

In Brainstorm, Event summons were made consumable like in vanilla. Most event summons outside of this were not changed in their obtainment methods, except caustic tear which went from needing 5 sulphuric scales at water, to only 1 sulphuric scale at water. This change is very weird because no vanilla event summons were changed, and it being only 1 basically means it has no actual “value” whereas all other event summons in some way require effort to get. The recipe is also very strange, since most recipes using 1 singular item are mostly stuff like crafting walls, platforms and niche items such as vanilla’s droppers, not the summon to the mod’s own event. I feel like at least increasing the amount of sulphuric scales in its recipe would help make it less strange and make it’s cost at least remotely on par with other event summons.

**Make both guns "Crackshot Colt" and "Midas Prime" shoot hitscans instead of projectiles + slightly bigger hitbox for coins (optional).**

These two guns shoot projectiles, which makes it hard to shoot your tossed coins if they get too far away. Players tend to move a lot when fighting bosses, coins move faster according to the player's speed. The bullet is fast, yes, but a projectile, again, makes it hard to land any shot on the tossed coins because it needs the player to try predicting where is the bullet going, on top of that, a chaotic scenario also needs you to also pay attention for any incoming attacks, players would feel like they're just destroying half their coins trying to predict their path and instead opt for directly shooting the enemies/boss, while a hitscan would make it easier to hit the coins no matter the distance between the player and the coin.
As for the slightly bigger hitbox for coins, it is for the same reason; making shooting coins easier from far away in a chaotic scenario that is caused when fighting bosses, etc (again, tad bit bigger hitbox for coins is optional).

**Retheme the Mana Rose weapon line to something else**

There are 11 flower-themed weapons in the mod, which can become confusing when they are obtainable at around the same stage of progression. This is most noticeable with Mana Rose, Belladonna Spirit, and Yateveo Bloom, as all three use pre-boss Jungle materials.

Then there are Tundra Flame and Gleaming Magnolia, which, while not available at exactly the same progression stage, still look fairly similar.

For the remaining weapons, the issue imo is more about an overall overuse of the theme. In hindsight, many players would probably struggle to tell these weapons apart. That is unfortunate, since the flower theme itself is a nice concept.

Since I believe there are already resprites in the works for the Frost Blossom line, I would suggest retheming the Mana Rose line to give it a stronger identity.

Currently, SCal's basic movement is nearly identical to that of Retinazer, a hardmode boss part of the Twins fight. The only difference is that SCal's movement is a bit floatier. This makes her usually stay at 1 side before going up, and then going to your side again.

This makes SCal much easier to predict nearly invalidating the basic attacks she sends out as you always know where they are coming from. Were this to be changed so she can move around you in a circle (albeit going too fast would be a bit extreme), would make her movement more unique and the basic attacks a bit harder to dodge so that it doesn't stay as "slowly move vertically/horizontally" depending on the attack.

Calamity mod changes almost every single accessory modifier in attempt to make them all have uses instead of only warding, menacing and lucky being really useable. For many modifiers, this was done by making them give half of one modifier’s stats and half of another, which while niche, has uses when trying to more specific stat distribution. However, since Calamity also causes Warding to give +1% Damage Reduction alongside its 4 defence, and Lucky to additionally give 0.05 luck alongside its +4% Crit Chance, modifiers which give +2 Defence or +2% Crit Chance alongside another stat, being the Spiked, Angry and Rash modifiers, end up losing some stats compared to using the reforges dedicated entirely to the two stats separately.

Currently, the Crags Pylon is sold with the same circumstances as other pylons, but only in the Brimstone Crags. The special thing about the Crags Pylon is that it doesn't need NPCs at it to be used. However, due to NPCs being required to obtain it, moving them there just to buy the pylon and then moving them back seems quite ass-backwards.

Knowing now that pylons do not exclusively need to be obtained by NPC sales, the Crags Pylon would be a good recipient of a different obtainment method due to how it works and how inhospitable for NPCs the biome already is.

Purportedly, the function only existed so that there was a way to remove the ore before killing Deus, but that is a solved problem now that you can clentaminate it into meteorite, which can be mined by that stage of the game.

**Allow Adrenaline to reduce damage while an energy shield effect is active**

Currently, the damage reduction effect of a fully charged adrenaline bar is deactivated while the player has an energy shield, like Profaned Soul Artifact. It is stated in the wiki page of the Adrenaline mechanic, so we can assume this is intentional

I don't thing there is a plausible justification for this to happen. It adds such a nonsense punishment for using arguably super useful acessories.
The Adrenaline bar is also drained as usual while not granting its benefit.
This mechanic is also COMPLETELY hidden in game. No shield acessory mentions this interaction.

The interaction should just be removed, as it aggregates nothing to the game and can lead to unexpected (and unfair) deaths

**Extend respawn time during boss fights in multiplayer**

Calamity changes the vanilla respawn time during boss fights from 30s to 15s, which is way too short, making losing to a boss not likely to happen especially for 3+ player playthrough, The config option could allow lowering the time back to 15s, for those who don't like it, or leave it for other QoL mods, like it was done with other QoL removals.

**Replace the holy water in Statis' Blessing’s recipe**

Currently the recipe for statis’ blessing requires 30 holy water, which currently is both random and slightly annoying to get for it, due needing the player to annoying buy some hallowed seeds randomly and craft some holy waters, which I feel is not really enjoyable at all. Additionally holy water doesn’t really make any sense as it has no relation to statis or the summoner class at all, and replacing it with a more logical item such as purified gel due to having ties to statis could solve these issues

**Remove Swordsplosion**

It's a random ass rgb gamer sword that ends up being entirely unimpactful. It is functionally just Star Wrath 2 (something Calamity is in no short supply of), on top of also being a Borderlands reference (another something Calamity is in no short supply of.) Anything Swordsplosion could do could otherwise be done with any of the other Star Wrath clones because the only functional differentiating factor between them is tiering and sprites.

**Rework Lifehunt Scythe**

Lifehunt Scythe is really lame. It's another scythe broadsword that does healing on tmelee hits. Which you can also do with the Terratomere, another sword in the same tier... that fires multiple projectiles and also inflicts a stun debuff on tmelee hits. Additionally, you can also procure the Death's Ascension, which does the scythes far more justice than the Lifehunt Scythe ever does.

Therefore, I reckon the Lifehunt Scythe could do with a rework that does it (and Dark Souls I guess...) justice.

**Give Gilded Proboscis's left click more flair while it charges/when it's fully charged**

Gilded Proboscis is a very interesting weapon, taking part of the fresh archetype of "charge then swing" melee weapons introduced in Brainstorm. However, unlike a previous weapon in this archetype (Hellkite) Gilded Proboscis does not make an audio cue when charged nor glows while charging. Because of this, the weapon feels rather "sauceless" when it fully charges, contrasting the massive damage it puts out and potentially driving players away from it. Giving it either an audio cue or a glowing effect (or both!) would let the weapon look a lot better and properly advertise its power.

**Change the Honey Dew's description to better reflect the debuffs that it's actually affecting**

The current description of the Honey Dew accessories notes that it "halves Sickness debuff durations", but I found this misleading as there are debuffs from vanilla called Potion Sickness (from health potions) and Mana Sickness (from mana potions), both obviously containing the word sickness. From what limited knowledge I have of Calamity, I don't think it's ever explained in-game what constitutes a "sickness debuff." Regardless, I think the name should be changed to something like "illness debuffs" or something, to better reflect what the item is supposed to be doing.
Alternatively, rename Potion Sickness and Mana Sickness to not imply being part of the Sickness debuff type, OR otherwise specify what debuffs make up a certain debuff type.

**Add an "Astralplate" and/or other Astral building materials**

The "-plate" type blocks are typically used for aesthetic purposes within Draedon's labs in specific biomes. While the Astral Infection does not currently feature a lab, it is clear that Draedon has some interest in it due to the existence of Astrum Aureus as one of his former recon drones. Not to mention, the Astral itself is currently highly lacking in aesthetic options, down to the fact that Astral Stone doesn't even have an associated brick, even though Pearlstone and Crim/Ebonstone do. While there is no Astral Lab (and there might never be), adding more building options for the Astral, a biome that is surprisingly lacking content despite its relevance within the game, would be a very welcome addition, and an "Astralplate" existing could allow players to build their own "Astral Lab" even if Calamity never adds one itself.

**Rename the Essence of Eleum**

The Essences all have had a history of being named after Dark Souls concepts. The Essence of Havoc used to be of Chaos, and Sunlight was the even more blatant name of Cinders, but right now it's in a fine naming spot.

However, the Essence of Eleum is by far the most blatant reference, and it doesn't even work well in my opinion. It is literally named after Frozen Eleum Loyce. "Eleum", on its own, also doesn't make any sense as a name for an essence of coldness. Before I knew about this, I assumed it had to do with Helium, which is not really well known for being cold.

For the above reasoning, I think the Essence of Eleum should be renamed.
(Obviously, with this renaming stuff like Eleumplate would also be renamed)

**Improve/smoothen the movement of Supreme Calamitas’s Brothers**

While the semi-recent rework to Scal’s Brothers made them much better overall, the way they move is a serious problem. They spend most of their time locked tightly out of range, which makes them extremely hard to hit with range-limited weapons like true melee, and they begin to snap wildly between attack angles as they lose health, which makes them absolutely infuriating to hit with almost any weapon at all. Their movement also just looks really weird and clunky.

One way to fix this could be having the Brothers gently accelerate into attack positions and not move relative to the player (rather than glue them to the screen), giving the player a lot more time to approach or aim at them.
This polish, however it’s done, would make the Brothers look nicer and stop them from making many weapons unusually bad on Calamitas.

Currently Astral Bricks have no actual resemblance to Astral Ore, not featuring the orange and blue colors the ore is made almost entirely of. As such it being the brick form of it makes basically no sense from a visual standpoint, and it would make way more sense if it was the brick form of just Astral Stone, due to actually featuring similar colors, as well as potentially meaning that a more fitting astral ore brick could be added later that incorporates that actually fits with the ore's theming

1. Currently, the way attributions are presented in this item are awful. For smaller screen resolutions, the full item description box is not shown correctly and it ends up not showing all the names (as shown in the following images). A possible solution to this is to introduce a right-click page system.
2. The division between current and past developers is not as clear, even if there's somewhat an alphabetical separation present. Were the right-click page system be added, it could be easier to organize and separate current and past developers. Another option would be just making this division clearer with text format, for example, a line break.

Note that this is a possible proposed solution, and developers have the liberty of choosing whether or not implement this or come up with another solution.

In Brainstorm several new blocks and walls associated with the planned sunken sea overhaul were included for players to build with, with most of them being obtainable through shimmering, crafting and crates. However, not every block or wall that was added in brainstorm were made obtainable, with Limestone Cobble, Mire, Runestone Terracotta, Shell Trim Brick blocks and walls, Superheated Obsidian, Large Basalt Wall, Navyslate Wall, Sea Prism Wall and Scarlet Sea Grass Wall all being unobtainable, and I feel like allowing players to be able to access and utilise these blocks would allow for more building options. Additionally, alongside these fully unobtainable blocks and walls, Brainstorm additionally added abyss coral and giant hive walls, which while they can naturally generate, can never be obtained by the player, and giving players ways to obtain them would also be great.

**Early Demonite and Crimtane Rogue Weapons**

Early rogue weapons made with demonite or crimtane could add parity to rogue, as the other classes get weapons from EOC or evil ore. It would serve as a little bit more of an intuitive weapon near the beginning of the game, as new players miss out on some of the earlier weapons because of their unconventional materials. A weapon like crystalline needs falling stars and diamonds and could be easily missed. A player is much more likely to try and craft something with demonite or crimtane when they first get it. If EOC is done before desert scourge or the giant clam it could be a great option for those fights and open up the early game a little.

While generally not an issue, seeds such as getfixedboi end up with the issue of not being able to remove Alcohols until the buff durations end leading to the player dying repeatedly until the buffs run out if they have drank too many and up up with alcohol poisoning. So adding something like drinking water or just allowing them to be removed via right-click would alleviate this issue.

**Change or revert the prefix changes that Calamity has added in Brainstorm**

It is hostile design towards more casual players, as it replaces the simple, easy to understand 2 > 1 with more complex questions like "3% dr 5 def > 1.5% dr 8 def?"
It infringes on calamity's reocurring issue of needlesly altering vanilla causing not only compatibility issues with other mods but also messing with the general flow of how the game plays, which often was perfectly fine as is.
It just kinda misses the point of how reforges are intended to work. Sure, 1% damage is worse than 3% damage, but that's okay. The weaker prefixes are meant to be weaker ones you can use for a while but replace when you can reforge them.
Now, some people may like the new, modified prefixes because they're strong or fun to use, and that's fine. For that, just... Add them in as entirely new prefixes. You don't need to change the vanilla ones.

Because you wouldnt be adding clutter to a required area to traverse

Either way, I'd still prefer it to be more separate thing from shroomite. If the problem is that it's cluttering a required place, then maybe it could work off of a drop from a solar eclipse.

[orchid ice]

But two shroomite armors would get confusing

[lucid drum]

And it wouldn't be a common drop either.

Maybe similar to the cores of the ice and desert biome.

[grave otter]

It would not get confusing since they would be themed and named the same

[orchid ice]

Do something like the Forbidden Fragments or Turtle Shells

Use Shroomite and another special material

[lucid drum]

Yeah, that's what I was thinking.

[grave otter]

Shroomite and uh...

[orchid ice]

Gypsy powder

[lucid drum]

I was going more along the lines of having it drop some from specific enemy from the post plantera solar eclipse thats particularly useless, such as the possesed and using chlorophyte instead.

Solar Eclipse already has its uses

Spider Crabs
These would be tall enemies, looking like they’re almost wearing stilts. (Just go look at a spider crab picture, I can’t be bothered to describe it perfectly. They’d probably have a more ‘abyss-like’ color scheme.) They’d have, thin, long claws for attacking, and these would be able to go through blocks. They’d deal minimal damage however, unless you are directly touching the body. They’d drop materials for a spider armor upgrade. They also drop depth cells post-plantera. Abyss layer 3.

Spider Crab drops
Only one unique drop: Crab Spines (or some similar name, you get the jist of it)
They would each drop 2-3 on kill. These are used for the Fathom Swarmer armor upgrade to the spider armor.

Fathom Swarmer Visage
10 defense
6% increased summon damage
+2 max minions
Spider mask, depth cells, crab spines, lumenyl
It lights up the area around you and allows water breathing.

Fathom Swarmer Abdomen
20 defense
15% increased summon knockback and damage
Spider breastplate, depth cells, abyss gravel, crab spines
Provides a 10% thorns bonus and +20 max life

Fathom Swarmer Boots
13 defense
7% increased movement speed and 15% increased movement speed underwater, as well as granting the ability to swim.

Set Bonus
Acts like tiger climbing gear, and grants a similar buff to the fishron mount. When in water, your summons are granted a 10% damage buff. When you leave the water, the buff lasts for another 2 minutes.

I'm not a fan of including too many stats myself, but I couldn't resist.

Feel free to just read the description of the mob, and the set bonus.

Does this seem alright?

[grave otter]

Whats the point of crab spines?

[lucid drum]

Upgrade for the spider armor

I want to add some weapons or accessories too, but I'm in school.

Oh, I almost forgot

@pine hawk Sorry for another ping.

[grave otter]

But... its already post plant

[naive shadow]

That mustve been a pain to write

[grave otter]

So adding this new material just for the armor does... nothing? for gating it.

[lucid drum]

Getting it?

It's kinda not the point.

It's now themed for deep sea spider crabs.

Thus the set bonus and the thorns for the abdomen.

It's from a design perspective.

[round mist]

hm

hmmm

[lucid drum]

Any other thoughts?

[slow kettle]

I like the idea, but the crab spines seem to be something like another Ruinous Souls or ashes of Calamity, kinda just there. The armor idea is still cool, but it probably doesn't need it's own material

[lucid drum]

Sure, then just more depth cells and such for the recipe?

[slow kettle]

Ye

I still do quite like the spider crabs, they just dont need a drop imo

[lucid drum]

Maybe, since I still think the set bonus needs to make a little sense, what other drops that already exist are kind of "cartilage and spikes" themed?

[analog narwhal]

tbh, since we've already gotten summoner armor out of the jungle, and it's really commonly used (thorium does it) I wanted it to be more unique.

And I spent a lot of time working on the set bonus and theme

[analog narwhal]

Could be quite nice

[lucid drum]

And since abyss has no armor set so far, I feel like it's a good chance to add in some novel summoner armor.

[orchid ice]

Didn’t mean to post :/

[lucid drum]

Also, since much of the summoner armors are themed around magic and such, it would be interesting to have a more "tech" themed one.

[orchid ice]

So does my explanation for having it be at least abyss themed make sense?

[analog narwhal]

I guess, I just like the jungle-plague themed one more

[lucid drum]

Yeah, that one's fine, but I feel like jungle themed summoner armor is overused.

[analog narwhal]

also I’m planning abyss armors

[orchid ice]

It’s like a summoner version of victide

[lucid drum]

Hm?

The place where the unholy cores come from, a "brimstone" themed biome, is very mage oriented.

And anyways, just because it's been melee themed before doesn't mean it should always be.

It's more variance, like not using the jungle over and over again for summoner stuff, or mage things.

And anyways, it's nice to have some of the calamity biomes get an armor set.

Astral armor should also be class themed imo.

[rigid scarab]

also plague things are mechanical

[lucid drum]

^

[rigid scarab]

mechanical plague doctor mask wouldn't make much sense

[lucid drum]

but it would be better than what pokemon fucking did

[tawdry condor]

There’s ways of making the mask not looks like LC

[grave otter]

@lucid drum another thing... whatcha mean using jungle over and over for summoner stuff?

Summoner stuff has like.... 2 things from jungle

Both of which are related to witch doctor

[lucid drum]

And the queen bee stuff.

[grave otter]

... the what?

[lucid drum]

And all the other armors in the modding community.

[tawdry condor]

Summoners don’t get a lot stuff in Calamity

Which should be fixed

[lucid drum]

@grave otter when someone says queen bee, what other armors are associated with it?

The hornet set or whatever.

[grave otter]

Oh i thought you said staff

[tawdry condor]

Bees

[grave otter]

thats related to witch doctor

[lucid drum]

oh

[grave otter]

Killing bee attracts him

[lucid drum]

My point still stands either way.

jungle has plenty of summoner things

It would be nice to have an armor set from the abyss, and have it be summoner, which is sparse as it is.

[tawdry condor]

So hence forth, Stuff from witch doctor is related to Queen bee, indirectly

[lucid drum]

?

[grave otter]

Hence forth?

its always been

[lucid drum]

Indirectly, yeah

[tawdry condor]

I have bad timing

[lucid drum]

Also, it has all the accessories as well. Summoner has always been very... Vegetation related?

i dunno

[tawdry condor]

True

[lucid drum]

Scrolls, scarabs, bees, and wood.

Would be interesting to have some aquatic things.

[tawdry condor]

I think of summoners as Army Generals

Sense you can lead an army essentially

[lucid drum]

And the Fathom swarmer set is also slightly tech related.

at least, in my view

[tawdry condor]

The wha?

[lucid drum]

It's what the armor set is called.

the one I made earlier.

search it

[tawdry condor]

That’s a cool idea man

[lucid drum]

Thank you.

Hopefully we can expand to some more unique post plantera armor.

[tawdry condor]

Yee

Maybe I can try spriting the armor

[lucid drum]

It would kinda resemble the spider armor, ofc, but the spines would theoretically be larger?

[tawdry condor]

Ya

[lucid drum]

and it would have spikes on the back of the chestpiece, similar to spider crabs themselves

I'm just going to go write out a visual description so other people can get a good idea too, I guess.

[tawdry condor]

The spikes on the back maybe get be difficult to make with the legs

[lucid drum]

Yeah, the legs would be positioned elsewhere, compared to the spider armor.

But it doesn't matter much for the moment.

[tawdry condor]

the legs

[lucid drum]

imo, it's not worth spriting until some other people have at least accepted the idea

👌

[tawdry condor]

Yeah

[severe sphinx]

A sulphurous sea version of water bolt,scepter and and golden shower maybe ?

[tawdry condor]

Hmmm

Sounds cool

[lucid drum]

golden show has an upgrade

though, funny enough i don't think it actually uses the golden shower

last i checked

but it does the same things, just buffed

[tawdry condor]

I’m checking right now

It doesn’t

[lucid drum]

but it's basically an upgrade.

[tawdry condor]

Yeah

Maybe a combination of the two that’s Abyss related?

[rotund dome]

maybe make a post supreme calamitas summoner weapon that's an upgrade to Entropy's Vigil but each group of three takes 2 slots

[lucid drum]

Does it involve shadowspec?

Shadowspec is reserved for dev-only.

So far, all of post-SCal is for dev only.

[fleet belfry]

I've heard Yharim will be a Town NPC. If he sells/buys items, selling Yharon Soul Fragments (which would need to be obtained through another world or Cheat Sheet, since he is a pre-Yharon NPC) to him damages the player, possibly instantly killing them. It'd be a neat little easter egg.

[slow kettle]

Shadowspec bars are generally reserved for developer items. Suggestions involving them are very unlikely to be accepted.

[rigid scarab]

Self pin

the shame

[slow kettle]

Needs to be said

[tawdry condor]

Upgrades to vanilla armors are accepted for suggestions, right?

[lucid drum]

ye

[rotund dome]

then maybe make it pre SCal

[rigid scarab]

does this mean we can suggest dev items for other people?

[tawdry condor]

What classes need armor upgrades then?

[lucid drum]

I dunno

atm, the problem isn't that they need upgrades

it's that linear progression can be a little boring

[slow kettle]

Calamity is fairly linear at this time, especially in terms of post ML content, so we are trying to spice things up

[lucid drum]

Brimflame Set

Brimflame Cowl
11 defense
15% increased magic damage
You are immune to all flame debuffs
Unholy cores, ectoplasm, obsidian skull

Brimflame Robes
21 defense
6% increased magic crit chance and damage
Unholy cores, ectoplasm, ashes of calamity

Brimflame Boots
15 defense
10% increased movement speed and immunity to lava
Unholy cores, ectoplasm, ashes of calamity

Set Bonus
You can activate a toggle effect. You lose life, but your damage is boosted by 10%. Your magic attacks will inflict brimstone fire.

[rigid scarab]

there needs to be more things to do with plague cell canister

[lucid drum]

it gives a use to the ashes of calamity

of course, it's gonna need balancing

[crimson perch]

#bee/spider armor upgrade with plague cells when

[tawdry condor]

suggestion: apotheosis ex and it needs 77 shadowspec bars

[lucid drum]

[rigid scarab]

don't you just mean buff apotheosis terry

[lucid drum]

sounds reasonable

do it fab

[rigid scarab]

[lucid drum]

Plague armor could also be a really cool ranger upgrade

[tawdry condor]

question

[lucid drum]

ye

[tawdry condor]

I know * is italics

[lucid drum]

yes

[tawdry condor]

But what do you use for underlines and bolds?

I'm a discord nub

[lucid drum]

two __ on both sides is underline, while two ** is bold

You can easily search it up

and ask in a different channel, too

[primal crow]

[tropic hinge]

What if the monsters Hive mind spawned were invincible only until second phase like a reverse brain of cthulhu

You would have to fight a mass of monsters and deal with the hive mind to make it harder

[rigid scarab]

20 dank creepers at once

hell no

[tropic hinge]

[lucid drum]

any qualms about the brimflame set

[eternal dew]

Hive Mind Phase 2 Revengance and Death change:
Hive Mind teleports a third as often but it shoots a volley of three spit and everytime the Mind teleports, it spawns a clone of itself that can't damage the player but can absorb the player’s attacks. Clone refreshes with every teleport of the real Mind.
Death - Hitting the clone will spawn dank creepers to charge at you.

[tropic hinge]

Remove worms from the Hive mind

Perforators have a hive and they are worms which means the fight is too similar

[lucid drum]

[stable sequoia]

YOU WILL NOT REMOVE WORM BOIS

[lucid drum]

ofc

[eternal dew]

[lucid drum]

nah

worms are ded

[stable sequoia]

o no

[lucid drum]

alright, since no one seems to have problems with the brimflame set, I'll just go ahead and drop the plague reaper set here too then.

[tropic hinge]

Give hive mind an unsettling animation of it shedding its skin and bursting into another hive mind when it goes into phase two

[lucid drum]

Plague Reaper Set

Plague Reaper Mask
17 defense
15% ranged fire speed and crit chance
Plague cell canisters, nanites, and necro helmet

Mrrp u were the guy to ask for the suggestion reworks when you are spouting these nonsensical stats

[lucid drum]

I know

[tawdry condor]

Set Bonus: +1 max minions, your minions have a chance to inflict the Plague on hit.

[lucid drum]

these aren't summoner armors, so i don't really care about them as much

[stable sequoia]

[tawdry condor]

Each piece is crafted from a piece of the bee set and plague canisters'

[tropic hinge]

A postml accessory that gives you more minion slots the less defense you have

[lucid drum]

seems legit

[eternal dew]

Idea: Make border blocks for the abyss that are unbreakable

[stable sequoia]

[lucid drum]

Also, I don't know if you read my reasons for not preferring a summoner upgrade with plague cells, but I'll say it again tbh.

It's because jungle is already a source for so much summoner stuff

And many other mods rely on jungle for summoner as well.

[stable sequoia]

[lucid drum]

just my thoughts, also because i really want an exclusive armor set for the abyss to happen

[stable sequoia]

yesyes

[tropic hinge]

Diving gear is basically armour lol

[lucid drum]

doesn't matter if it's mine in the end or not, i just want more summoner armor and more abyss shit.

[tawdry condor]

an abyss summon armor?

say no more

[lucid drum]

I mean, I can repost my idea.

[stable sequoia]

Abyss is underestimated. Could we get a real boss there? And not just the void miniboss?

[lucid drum]

Also, abyssal diving gear hardly counts as armor

[stable sequoia]

Iz it not jus to increase breath?

[tropic hinge]

Have abyss chests removed and abyss chest weapons obtained from the angler as rare rewards

[stable sequoia]

y tho

[lucid drum]

memes

[tropic hinge]

Angler needs love

[stable sequoia]

oh ok

[lucid drum]

No he doesn't the stuck up little brat.

[tropic hinge]

[lucid drum]

He's the npc i always put in the house closest to the door.

[stable sequoia]

#HateTheAngler

[lucid drum]

right next to dye trader and painter

anyhow, this was my idea for an abyss summoning set

[eternal dew]

Sniper Rifle + 25 Plague Cell Canisters + 20 Ichor
The Jungle Sleeper
Damage - 220 Ranged
Knockback - 5
Crit chance - 35%
Use time - 30
Velocity - 20
Shoots a powerful bullet that inflicts the Plague and Ichor
Right click to zoom out
"Ah, piss"

[lucid drum]

if the stats are too much, just read the effects of the armor

Fathom Swarmer Set
