Add some extra drops for the Frost Moon and Pumpkin Moon Pre and Post Moon Lord. There are many events in Terraria, but the two holiday events barely get any recognition in terms of additions by mods. Even in Calamity they only have 1-2 drops, and that's post Moon Lord.

Give the main menu a couple visual indicators that calamity mod is installed, like the main text that says Terraria would instead say "Terraria: Calamity Mod" with custom looks n' all. No particular reason for this suggestion, I just genuinely think it would be really nice to have a custom calamity themed main menu, since the music mod already plays the calamity theme. c:

Make the cold divinity minion recharge sound effect more quiet.
The recharge sound effect when having more than one or two minions is just loud and obnoxious (and by the time you obtain it, you will most likely have more than 5-7), would be better to just adjust it to be less irritating when using the epic new summon weapon.

Add the ability for both the Dyrad and the SteamPunker to sell both of the evil seeds or solution, allowing there to be an easier method to access hardmode evil materials or the ability to fight the calamity boss that is unique to said evil biome. With this addition it’d be far easier to be able to spread the evil in an area and farm drops from monsters and even fish up crates dedicated to said biome, with this addition you’d be able to gather all loot from either evil in your own world without the hassle of having two separate worlds with different evils for you to grind in.

Allow us to get the opposite evil wood in the opposite evil biome.
||i noticed the scab ripper is significantly weaker than the vile feeder. I can understand since ichor in crimson worlds gives a large advantage for picking it, however, in corruption world you can just bring down your evil island to get ichor regardless. This is extra work but it's nice to be allowed to work extra for a neat advantage, however in crimson worlds, you cannot get ebonwood, and you sinply cannot get the vile feeder and are stuck with the weaker option. Also if someone wanted to build with ebonwood/shadwood but had the opposite evil world, they can't||. I think you should just be able to do the extra work and go to your evil island and use some evil ore plus basic wood to create ebonwood and vice versa for shadewood. Thank you for coming to my ted talk

I reposted HALF of a suggestion because it didn't get enough stars and was a long time ago. Someone above posted one half of this same suggestion so I'm going to only repost the remaining half

allow us to spawn our own biome mimics of the opposite evil biome

I cannot stress enough how hard it is to get the crimson into my corruption world. The current method is to go to the other side of the world, build up to the evil island, demolish the entire thing, go underground, and place all of the sand and wait for it to spread. This is ridiculously tedious. Another issue sprouted by this is trying to get a biome mimic from the opposite evil. All you can do is stand in your tiny crimson biome and wait for it to spawn. And then hope to got it drops what you want because if not, you're fucked.
I've got a possible solution to this issue: allow us to add demonite/crimtane to the evil mimic key recipe to create some kind of specific key that spawns the specific mimic

A reward for mixing multiple summons.
With the new update, there is now a significantly larger variety of summons, but unless there's a hardcap, there's always that one summon that outclasses the rest, and as a result you simply just summon a big group of that single summon and miss out on all the rest of the tier. I Propose a reward of some sort for mixing summons, whether it be a damage buff for each different summon active or having summons all have their own unique unstackable buff they give to the player similar to yharon's kindles. This can be through a game mechanic or an accessory

The entire thing with summoner is that you have a personal army, but it's pretty lame to have an entire army.. of the exact same thing.

Make some new summoner weapons that do more than damage.

We just got hit with a huge bunch of new summon stuff and it's actually sick, but we're sleeping on so many opportunities right now.

Nearly every summon weapon in the game does one thing: damage. And that's a good thing to do! But there's also other things summons could do. Like: heal the player, apply buffs to the player, apply debuffs to enemies, create auras, give you more money, destroy tiles, revive the player, make me a tasty pre-packaged lunch, and any and all of these combined together. Summoners are so unique in that they can fill nearly any of these roles and do it effectively, and you would finally chip away at the biggest flaw in current summoner's design: there's no point in variety when all your options do the same thing.

I want an army of little healing angels with an ichor blaster and a few spaceships that teleport my enemies away until my other summons kill them. This is something nobody is doing, and I would love to see that change.

(P.S. -- this is kind of big in scope but i'd frankly be cool with just some small gradual additions to summoner over time. even a few debuff options would make a very positive and lasting impact on the class, instead of golden gun being a staple)

A summon weapon that can be used to aggro passive entities
Currently, it's difficult with summoner to fight enemies that are considered passive, like the ghost bell or the trasher. If an early game summon weapon was able to directly damage entities, it could aggro passive entities, then other summons would attack what was hit. This isn't supposed to be used as an actual weapon, just a tool to aggro enemies

Give Summoners and Rogues new wings

Summoners have to wait till post plantera to get either Leaf (which is only summoner specific cuz of Tiki) or Spooky, while rogues have to wait till post pillars for Xeroc. Adding new wings (or repurposing existing ones), will make it consistent with all the wings that the other classes get on the earlier tiers (like Butterfly, Flame, Frozen, etc.).

Add in a new exclusive Rogue armor available Pre-Boss in Hardmode

Rogues don't have any set of armor Pre-Boss in Hardmode, making this first step of Hardmode incredibly difficult for them. The Sulphurous Sea seems to majorly be a Rogue classed area, so it would only make sense to head back there again. The armor would require low amounts of Souls of Light, Sulphurous Sandstone, and Planty Mush in it, encouraging more exploration of the new Sulphurous Sea and Abyss. It would have two different types of the set, one that favors defense, and one that favors offense. Having both types of the set would be beneficial as it can help the two types of players, the ones who need a little extra defense to survive hits, and the players who are more skilled and can dodge attacks, having their reward being extra damage and other bonuses.

Give summoner weapons their own unique affixes
Unlike how rogue derives fairly well from ranger affixes, summoner weapons don't interact well with mage affixes. Mana cost, cast speed, and crit chance simply don't matter at all for summons and it makes a number of prefixes useless. Giving summoners their own set of specific prefixes could fix this. Options to replace the removed affixes would be things like minion attack speed, minion projectile velocity, or minion movement speed.

Remove divine geodes from the tarragon armor crafting recipe
Currently if you want to craft tarragon armor you need to defeat providence at least twice and potentially up to 4 times assuming you craft nothing else with divine geodes. This makes it basically required to grind Providence to progress which is time consuming and all it really does is slow down progression for no real reason.
Alternatively, The amount of divine geodes required to craft it could be reduced or the amount of geodes dropped by Providence could be increased.

Add in More Weapons from Bumblebirb
Bumblebirb did get moved from the tier of Pre-Yharon to Pre-Providence, and there has been no form of weapons for Summoner and Rogue class that have been dropped by them. It would be a good idea to make them for the Providence battle in someway to add more reason to fight this boss after the Profaned guardians.

Give the ||Tactical Plague Engine|| some amount of ammo conservation
the ||Tactical Plague Engine is a summon weapon|| that uses and consumes bullets, allowing interesting interactions with special bullet types to occur. ||However given it's post-moonlord status it's likely that by the time you get it ten or more will be active at once. ||This makes it hard to use special ammo with it because it will waste around 100 bullets on weak fast moving targets like pixies.

Auric Tesla Magic Carpet Dye
I've noticed that I can't, upon trying, dye the Auric Tesla armor's magic carpet. You should implement a way to dye the carpet, as it might help bring a color scheme/outfit together. If I were to decide, I would have it so that whatever color you dye the leggings of the armor (or vanity), the carpet will be that color.

Increase the speed of Old Duke's dashes and his projectiles if the player is too far away

Reason: Currently, Old Duke has a really small threat area. His dashes have a long gap between them and his projectiles like the Tooth Balls are too slow to be a threat. This makes him easy to outrun, especially if you use the jelly bean mount. Because of this Old Duke is made easy to despawn, to try and force you to stay in his threat area. Even with him being able to be despawned easily it's still not that hard to just outrun it without staying too far away. Instead of making Old Duke easier to despawn, I think it would be a lot better to increase his threat area by letting him and his projectiles easily catch up to you, similar to Yharon. For being a post-Polterghast boss, it shouldn't be avoided this easily by running away, and needs faster charges and projectiles to be able to keep up with the player.

Make the wulfrum fishing pole have a unique ability.

There’s pretty much no reason to use it over reinforced fishing pole. While wulfrum fishing pole has a fishing power of 10%, reinforced has a power of 15%. Both are at the same tier, and 8 iron bars are considerably easier to get than 9 wulfrum shards. Even if you have 9 wulfrum shards but not 8 iron bars, because of the difference in fishing power and because shards are usually saved for armor and weapons, crafting a wulfrum fishing pole isn’t a smart idea. I believe giving it a unique ability that reinforced pole doesn’t have would be a better idea than buffing it’s fishing power. I don’t think making an indirect immediate upgrade would be a good solution to an indirect immediate upgrade. My best idea for a unique ability would be making it so the line never snaps. Line snapping is just a bad mechanic. It’s just a random chance to not catch something you were going to catch, which is frustrating. This buff would give the player an option to either use a fishing rod with more power or a rod with less but without an annoying mechanic.

Make the Teratoma spawn Hive Mind further away from the player

Currently, the Teratoma spawns Hive Mind directly above the player, making it extremely hard to spawn him in and not take a hit without quick movement/knowledge that it does this, and if you're farming on Armageddon mode, this inconvenience becomes a death-trap. Make it spawn him out of the way of the player, or don't allow him to damage the player directly after being spawned, like Crabulon.

As much as I love messing around with this weapon, it's quite powerful, to a degree I don't believe to be appropriate.

Either replace the frost lasers in Rev+ Destroyer's fight with something else, or severely reduce the time they inflict Chilled and Glacial State for.

❔
It should not be necessary to bring a Warmth Potion --- a potion that is designed around cold resistance --- to a fight that has nothing to do with cold simply because an attack that is made obscenely prominent throughout the fight (particularly in Death Mode) chills and can freeze for multiple seconds at a time. The fight as it stands currently demands constant movement as Desu himself can deal immense damage, particularly with his head, and the frost lasers are really just there to make getting hit needlessly punishing. Given the fact that Destroyer isn't particularly enjoyable to fight in his current state, the replacement of these frost lasers or at least some major adjustments to them seem like the best course of action to push the fight in the right direction; in short, this particular attack is not only excessively brutal if it hits but isn't thematically fitting at all compared to the rest of the fight.

Boss Zen toggle in Mod Config

Boss Zen primarily exist so that Armaggeddon farming isn't suddenly interrupted by enemies that aren't part of a boss fight, but besides that, most outside enemies that try to get in the way shift your focus for one second then mysteriously dissappear, so it isn't that big of a deal. There are occasions where it's actually really neat to have outside of Arma like in places where there are dangerous enemies that can actually harm you directly considerably, or interrupt your adrenaline and make it overall hard to maintain, and for that, you can have the toggle on.

Outside of that, there are some downsides, like the fact it uses one of your buff slots to work which can be really annoying sometimes, or in MP cases where person X wants to farm bosses but person Y wants to farm normal enemies and Boss Zen from X's farming won't let Y farm, Boss Zen is not even necessary at all for some fights like SCal where all other enemies are deleted from existence or just straight up don't make a difference, and for this, you can have the toggle off.

When Rage and Adrenaline are both active, there should be a unique added bonus.

Rage and Adrenaline are both cool concepts on paper, but they fall short in gameplay due to limited use and relatively tame payoffs. This suggestion would give players more of an incentive to save Rage and Adreneline for the right moment, since both by themselves are relatively boring. If I were to choose the effect, I'd go with invulnerability for a given amount of time, or maybe even a time stop to reposition and deal massive direct damage.

Make Vivid Clarity more consistent

Currently, even when used correctly, how much dps you do with this weapon heavily relies on rng. I observed that when the beams cause the explosions, extremely low damage is dealt and it is mainly the additional bouncing beam that deals the damage. I feel that the weapon is too inconsistent, having a dps range of 100k to 1mil (with glass gear) on scal. I suggest increasing the damage of the explosion so the minimum damage the weapon can do is increased when you get all 5 explosions, and decrease the damage of the additional beam from the sky, to prevent too much dps spikes, but make the damage increase after hitting enemy/tile higher to compensate so the "High iq increases weapon's potential" part is preserved.

Death Mode Destroyer

In my recent Death Mode mage playthrough, I had the pleasure of slamming into the Destroyer like a shopping trolley crashing into a brick wall. The boss is vastly stronger than any other of the mech bosses or equivalent calamity Early-HM bosses, even when investing fully into survivability and mobility. The necessity of the warmth potion isn't clear until fighting the boss, unlike cryogen, who is the signature Ice Biome Boss. If I'm frozen by cryogen and die for it, I laugh at myself for not considering cold resistance against the Ice Boss. If I'm frozen by Destroyer for two entire seconds and get OHK'd, I wonder why it fires ice lasers in the first place. The boss has a ludicrous 150,000 health, which does not get balanced out by worm hitboxes as the DR of the body of destroyer is massive, and all piercing projectiles are negated once they hit three times, as well as dealing less damage overall. I understand that vanilla Destroyer is easy to cheese using high ground, Stormbow, and similar piercing weapons, but Calamity Death Mode Destroyer is too fast, too overwhelming, and trumps all other bosses of similar progression. In my playthrough I ended up killing twins and prime without anywhere near as much difficulty, and substituted Desu for Cryogen to get pre-plant gear. If I feel I need pre-plant gear to viably take on this boss, it needs a difficulty tuning, if not a rework.

Give Twisting Nether and Armored Shell a respective potion for their tiers to give some more post-moon lord potion variety!

Although not completely necessary, I think this would help give players more options in the potion department at a tier with really only a utility-based potion to use. The potion effects can be determined by the devs, but generally I feel that twisting nether and armored shell potions should be offensive and defensive-leaning potions respectively, to compliment the utility of the dark plasma potion.

Maybe have the dryad sell both the Bloody worm food, and the Teratoma after the Hive Mind, or Perforators have been defeated.
Reason: Since it is difficult to spread the corruption or crimson pre hm without the use of seeds, the opposite biome's boss would be exceedingly difficult to fight before access to better ways of spreading evil biomes, and the dryad selling the opposite boss's spawn item would make getting their loot, or whatever you want to fight them for, much easier.

As I feel it's important to include here, compared to the above image, here is a very simplified version of what I had in mind for the Sulphurous Sea. It is similar to both "Before and After" versions of the biome, just slightly less realized and easier to digest.

Elemental Disc's current function is incredibly laggy due to all of the projectiles it spawns, creating 8 discs at a time which it can do more than once per throw. If spammed for a couple of seconds it will form a cloud of disks that covers a quarter of the screen and will make your fps plummet.

When the elemental disk is near an enemy it should split along the 4 arms of the disc rather than its current function. Reason: that's an intuitive way to reduce the lag caused by this weapon.

Change how the sun spirit staff works, move it to a later point in progression, or change the Frost Blossom staff to be more distinct from Sun spirit.

All three of these points are solution to the same problem: Frost blossom and Sun spirit are very, very similar. They have a very similar beam attack, both float over your head, and have exactly the same damage value, however frost blossom can be considered better due to it's explosion effect. This makes both these weapons somewhat boring, and causes the sun spirit staff to be obsolete.

Any of the above solutions could make both these weapons fill their own niche, rather than stepping on each other's toes due to their similarities.

I have recently been playing a revengeance mode summoner playthrough and found my favorite summon is the Resurrection Butterfly. Sadly the weapon gets outclassed by the Entropy's Vigil, a weapon that you can acquire by beating Calamitas. The Resurrection Butterfly could use a damage increase, maybe with the ranged projectiles doing 75%-90% summon damage instead of the 50%. My reason behind this increase is that the weapon is a post-Golem item and it shouldn't be doing less than a pre-Golem item.

Just feel like these mechanics need a rework because they don’t even feel like they do much when you manage to charge them up

Dank/clot staff minion speed buff.
Currently this staff does great damage with its fantastic pierce properties, and quick hits with low damage, however its lack of speed makes it inconsistent, only getting damage in for tackles when it does quick “tick damage” at low values, allowing this minion more speed will allow it to chase and track enemies better, making it better suited than minions such as the vile staff or an even earlier staff, the Belladonna Spirit Staff as both of these generally outclass it for damage.

An indicator is needed to let people know Storm Weaver becomes enraged outside of the space layer because the enraged state is not obvious enough. Players, who are completely unaware about Storm Weaver's enraged state, will try to fight Storm Weaver outside of space without thinking twice about it. Many, many attempts will incur for awhile until the player either hardly manages to beat the Storm Weaver, or they resort to asking for help. That's annoying for a relatively minor boss.

Add some form of tooltip, debuff, instant kill/damage reduction, or other form of indicator for the Storm Weaver as way to inform the player that the Storm Weaver goes enraged outside of space.

Alternatively, Move Moon Lord to the end of the Tier 4 bosses, to make the death animation mesh with the brief pause between Tier 4 and 5

Add items similar to profaned soul crystal for other bosses with similar challenges to obtain so that summoner gets a subclass which transforms weapons maybe godpriest or something. as for now summoners dont have any means of attacking on their own and summoner armors only boost summon damage .so endgame fights are just bullethell doging and if you play calamity you play calamity not touhu.

Buff Hive Mind's damage and nerf its HP
Every time I've fought the Hive Mind, it's taken a ridiculous amount of time to beat it. For me, it's always been about as long as the Devourer of Gods fight. I can understand why DoG is so long, since it's incredibly important to progression, but Hive Mind isn't a major boss. The trade-off for nerfing the HP would be to buff the damage (contact and/or damage of the Dank Creepers and other enemies summoned.)

Reduce the speed and acceleration of the Aureus Spawns. Why?

The main idea behind the Aureus Spawns is to try not to hit them so that they stay passive. Although it's a neat concept on paper, it really does not matter because of the amount of projectiles that you make at that point in the game. A stray bullet or AoE weapon is enough to piss them off and make a nearly undodgeable attack that does around 125 damage in Revengeance, not to mention the Astral Infection debuff it gives you which is around another 30-50 damage. The high speeds that they move at give you almost no reaction time, especially on a laggy computer.

I don't care how you fix them, just make them either slower or do less damage.

Yharon's second phase should be harder.
The second phase of Yharon is quite similar to the first, in fact some people say it's easier. Since the player is alraedy familiar with Yharon's patterns, Yharon should have different AI or attack patterns to truly make it seem like Yharon's full power and also to make it feel different from the first phase.

Give Cultist some kind of a new attack revolting around Xeroc/shadowflame

Think of this. Xeroc armor is lunar armor for rogue, of the same tier, meld blobs do drop from lunar enemies (nebula, specifically), so why does the summoner of celestial invasion not have any kind of attack related? He has fireballs for Solar Pillar, Arc Orb Lightning for Vortex etc. Yes, sure enough, there is no Meld/Xeroc Pillar, but Xeroc armor/ weaponry is a thing, so why shouldn't it be a thing?
About idea, I do believe that he could summon some shadowflame tentacles to shoot up from gound or something. Devs are better at ideas anyways.

Rework Rev+ Cultist's rituals to allow hitting the wrong cultist and not guarantee clone spawns. Additionally, make those clones retaliate in some fashion when struck throughout the fight once they exist.
(Bonus points: clones that already existed before a ritual still don't dissipate.)

❔
As it is currently, the rituals are the one aspect of this fight which is actually majorly adjusted...except the issue is that they completely miss the point of LC's rituals in the base fight. In the vanilla battle with the main main sealing the Moon Lord away, his summoning rituals are present to force the player to slow down for a second and think about where they're firing rather than spraying bullets everywhere. Calamity prevents you from hitting any Cultist except the real one and shortens the time you have to pick out the right Cultist, meaning you basically have to spray those bullets everywhere if you don't want a Phantasmal Dragon up your ass. Furthermore, that is the only punishment for doing it wrong, because clones always stick around even if you get it right, removing a large portion of the compensation for not being an idiot. CompleteFailure

The proposed idea is that when a cultist clone is shot, it "retaliates" in some fashion --- copying current LC attack, using a new attack, jamming the player's weapons...there are a lot of different ways to go about it, but the point is that they retaliate when hit...and that it carries on throughout the fight. This would actually give LC's clones a reason to exist past shadowflame fireballs and increased Ancient Doom spawns, and combined with the rest of the changes mentioned would expand the original point of the rituals to the entire fight, making the battle a test of intelligence and observance rather than a mere test of firepower.

May I suggest a bit more warning to the presence of Cosmic Elementals? I know that at least for death mode, it's very much a mod focused around "git gud lol," but suddenly dying in the early game because a Cosmic Elemental decides to yeet itself into your safe box is hardly a fair death. Even just a faint light source or a noticeable sound would suffice.

Instead of "[Name] failed the challenge at hand" when a character dies with armageddon active, either play a normal death message with something like "(Armageddon active)" at the end, or tell the player the name of what killed them
Sometimes you'll get killed and not see it coming, and not even realize what hit you when nohitting. If the message was clearer, players would be able to tell exactly what hit them instead of being left wondering

Add a way to re-obtain lore items if they’re accidentally discarded. It sucks that you can only get one of every lore item per world because many players are unaware that they’re non renewable. Maybe, if the game can’t find a lore item located in your world, it’ll give you a new one. That way, it’s not as easy to accidentally trash one.

Make Uelibloom spread slowly, just how Chlorophyte Ore does, to a specific cap of block grown in an area. In return, make it spawn in much smaller and more rare pack than currently.

It should be obvious that Uelibloom ore is literally a Plant kind of ore. Why shouldn't it have ability to spread to mud blocks? This would additionally spice up post-Providence grind a little bit, possibly forcing player to wait a bit before aquiring Tarragon armor. This way, players could instead, for example, look what accesories they can make to increase their fighting/surviving abilities, rather than blindly going into a mining madness straight after snuffing of Providence.
For those who enjoy building, this can make Jungle a little bit more appealing biome, should it not have as many holes after such digging.

Make a pre-hardmode item that temporarily grants immunity to the Sulphuric Poisoning debuff, to make the trek to the abyss less difficult and to make acid rain easier to manage early on.

The Sulphur Sea is already difficult to traverse with its bubbles, difficult enemies, and large bodies of water. However, the Sulphuric Poisoning debuff is the icing on the cake for making this biome annoyingly difficult to traverse until post-AS. The pre-hm dive to the abyss already takes out around 240 hp before you even reach the bottom, and the acid rain is made even more difficult due to the constant DoT of the water, making leeches even more lethal.

An addition that would help this would be a temporary buff, either pre-existing or new, that would grant immunity to Sulphuric Poisioning. This would give players more opportunity to play around the acid water's debuff, and make getting to the abyss less bothersome and difficult.

add a 1 second start up to the skeletron fight so you don't start right under his head

currently in order to spawn skeletron, you must talk to the old man at the dungeon entry which requires a 4-7 block distance max between you and the NPC. (dont know the exact value) This distance is similar to the size of skeletrons head, and as soon as you press "curse" skeletron will be fully mobile, this allows him to sometimes chain 200-300 dmg right at the start of the fight because you are not at a safe distance. I propose a 1 second "stun/cast" to skeletron before he starts moving, this could be animated to get his arms out and ready to fight, or even adding a code that prevents either player or enemy to deal damage, similar to the cosmic worms. (this gets more harmful the higher the difficulty, especially in death mode)

Reword the Sulphurous Armor set bonuses tooltip or change the set bonus

why: the set tooltip is misleading and doesn't match the actual functionality of the set bonus.

the tooltip states: "Grants a sulphurous bubble jump that applies venom on hit"
which implies that when airborne the player can preform a mid-air jump leaving a damaging bubble, when in reality,
the aforementioned bubble spawns only when the player jumps off the ground, and jumping mid air gives the same effect as the Sandstorm in a bottle accessory, which the tooltip neglects to mention.

possible solutions:

change the set bonus to function as the tooltip says (the bubble spawns upon jumping mid air)
change the wording of the tooltip to match the actual behavior of the set

Some bosses should retreat from the battle instead of dying.

There are some bosses that are presented in the lore as being sentient beings with no particular reason to be fought, such as Brimstone Elemental and Lunatic Cultist. The player shouldn't actually kill these characters due to moral conflict. Instead, the bosses should drop their treasure and retreat. This would make the player feel less guilty about killing characters that don't deserve to die, especially characters who are as aware as humans, such as the aforementioned bosses.

Grant the Eater of Worlds immunity to Electrified on higher difficulty levels.

❓ As it turns out, the Tesla Potion basically makes the Eater of Worlds fight, even on Death Mode, an utterly trivial waste of time due to the fact that it provides a substantial DoT and damage aura that the Eater is not actually immune to. Not only does this eliminate Vile Spit as an issue entirely, it means that each individual segment can get hit by Electrified and 15 points of damage from the aura. This utterly shreds the boss, and makes it so easily fought that you can fight it without an arena at all, underground, even on Death Mode. I feel that this is against the spirit of Rev and Death, therefore, I suggest that at the very least, it gets an immunity to Electrified.

Maybe voice acting for bosses that speak like Devourer of Gods and Supreme Calamitas. It would make it so you didn’t have to read the on screen text while fighting them. Plus this is a lot for lore possibilities. Such as giving the bosses more depth and emotion. We could also add speech for certain bosses such as Providence or Yharon (if he is intelligent enough to talk). Maybe some dev could voice those bosses. This in my opinion would add more immersion. If the music and voice clash the music should soften so you can hear them. This only happens once for a quote so we won’t have the Devourer saying “Did that hurt?” 20 times throughout the fight. Thank you for your time.

Add something to make the vanilla NPCs more relevant post-ML.

As it is, after you've beaten ML, the vanilla NPCs are basically dead weight (aside from Goblin Tinkerer). Of course some of them were already dead weight (Guide, Stylist, Dye Trader, Tax Collector, Painter, Truffle after you buy a single autohammer, etc,) and there are a few useful bits and bobs they sell, but the majority become absolutely useless once vanilla progression ends. Compare this to the Bandit, who sells new content all the way up to Yharon. Adding post-ML content sold by some of the vanilla NPCs could provide more of a reason to keep them around. (This doesn't need to just apply to the utility NPCs, for example the Stylist and Dye Trader could provide post-ML dyes or something.)

I'm sorry, but Entropy's vigil should definitely be nerfed.
I started summoner playthrough a while ago and defeated Calamitas with Ancient Ice Chunk, dealing around 500 DPS. When i got Entropy's vigil, it managed to destroy every single hardmode boss in less than a minute (moon lord and polterghast included; 3 mechas in one night).
This character is using early hardmode gear as an example, dealing almost 10k DPS. When i fought Moon Lord i was dealing around 20k DPS. Making any other pre-moon lord summoner weapon completely insignificant. (i wanted to use cold divinity so badly, that one deserves some heavy buffs)
Nerf suggestion: Entropy vigil should consume 3 slots to summon; Make the trio attack more synchronized instead of nonstop spamming.
I know Calamitas is a big deal in this mod but this is just too much.
Check it for yourself if you don't believe

Severely decrease/nerf the health pool of most worm enemies in Death Mode.

❔
Because of the way worm enemies work in Death Mode, any worm enemy that can split is set up to where every segment has as much HP as a full-blown worm enemy. I appreciate trying to make the game harder, but when common worm enemies have higher per-segment health than the Eater of Worlds and can still split in the same fashion, there's a serious problem.

As it stands now, vanilla wings and calamity mod wings give buffs alongside the usual "you can fly and don't take fall damage" thing. Alongside that comes a fair share of really sweet buffs like fin wings giving u free movement in liquid. Sadly this means other wings will suffer the fate of being very underwhelming, which right now, is sadly a huge issue.

For example: The angel wings give a 20+ max life boost, +15 defense boost and +3 life regen boost. But if u look at tarragon wings, the boost suddenly becomes enormous for the angel wings with tarragon only giving +2 life regen and +15 defense WHEN u wear the armor set.
A couple of other wings share the fate, including all the post-ml wings and some things like the bone wings.
My suggestion is to give a huge buff to said "underwhelming" wings, like making the bone wings passify skeletal enemies when u wear it, just like the royal jelly does (might be a bit too broken but it's an idea nontheless) or making let's say, xeroc wings, give u a passive stealth regen even when u move and attack. The list for possibilities goes on but please give the underwhelming wings a chance to shine.

During Acid Rain, make it only rain in the Sulphurous Sea biome.
As is stands, whenever the Acid Rain event is active (which lasts until you defeat it), it will rain throughout the entire world. This is incredibly annoying, especially for people who don't like rain already. For lower-end pcs, the extra rain particles can make the game chug. Having to go to the other side of the world to grind out an event, just so it can stop raining, is inconveniencing.

Rework true melee boosts such as the Counter Scarf to grant bonus damage on true melee strikes with a weapon.
What I mean is that rather than boosting the base damage, it should deal more damage in true melee range. Like a sword will deal bonus dmg with counter scarf regardless of whether it shoots a projectile or not. Projectiles will not receive this boost.
Why should this be done: It still preserves the concept of true melee. It'll give DoG lore more of a use. And it'll remove discrepancies such as Ultimus Cleaver getting true melee bonuses.
(Note: Fungal Symbiote may need a rework of some sort. Possibly explosion of mushrooms on true melee hits)

Add more enemies post ML

I feel one of the main problems with the post ML portion of the game is just how empty it feels. It’s essentially just a boss rush with some new ores and events sprinkled in. I feel the main cause of this is the lack of threatening enemies. Currently, the only enemies you’ll find that pose a threat at this point would be the Profaned enemies, dungeon enemies, abyss enemies and buffed event enemies. Everything else can just be killed effortlessly. I feel by adding a few more common enemies that pose a genuine threat post ML would help keep it more interesting.

Buff the magic damage bonus granted by the Brimflame Frenzy ability.

❔
Currently, the Brimflame Frenzy ability costs a mighty -21 HP/sec life regen + completely disabled mana regeneration for 10 seconds each...in exchange for a 1.1x multiplier to magic damage. Given the extreme price that has to be paid to utilize the ability, it feels awfully underwhelming that you get less than a Shroomite headpiece's worth of damage off of it, especially since you're forced to brute-force your way through Mana Sickness to keep firing. Buffing the magic boost granted by the ability would help to justify the extreme penalty and make it more of a high-reward ability to match its high risk.

I think at the start of a new game we should get an item in which we choose what class we want to go with in the new playthrough. Like, someone wants to go mage only - he chooses that option. As a result, the first drop that he gets from the bosses will contain a mage item(first time only), so a person doesn't have to grind one boss three-four times in order to get a weapon that fits his class if he gets unlucky. Of course, if a player doesn't want to choose any class, he can simply ignore the item/choose a "No Class" option, in this case there will be no effect.

I think that when you have a summoning accesory in the social slot then... creatures that is summons show but they do nothing. Maybe it works for few but for many it does not.
The reason is that some people would like to see their waifus, mushrooms or other, maybe it fits their loadout, but it's for a other game part so it is not worth to wear normally, it could work like a pet that doesn't use a pet slot.
Or you can make it that summoning accesories (maybe summon weapons too!) can be worn in the pet slot, this could be also good for reasons listed above.

They're effectively reskins of the Leaf Crystal from vanilla, with the only real difference outside of the visual aspect being that they inflict some debuffs. Making them actually have unique effects would help make them stand out and would possibly help make them more than just an occasional 100 damage once in a while, and could even possibly make fights more interesting by making the player have to employ new strategies to effectively use their projectiles.

Add a giant bottomless water bucket
The bottomless water bucket is great, but if you happen to drain your ocean by blowing up the abyss it tends to be a little slow. Is it possible to add a bottomless water bucket that fills a large area instead of just 1 block? Like a giant 5 radius circle of water?
This is good in other situations too. It helps with making fishing pools MUCH faster. Very good quality of life.

Boss Update for speed runners

So this mainly includes a NPC that can help you get summons earlier in the game

Why: Their are interesting ways to speed run like the eidolist item that helps you fight cultist, how about something similar in a way but it skips progress instead. Instead of skipping to like a fight, you can skip like Easy Mode or Hardmode and jump to post moon lord. This gives a challenge for speed runners who really wanna speed through the game trying to fight enemies with some small items

Accessory idea for true melee: An accessory that let's true melee weapons deal a flat % of the damage they would normally deal in true damage.
Sure, there could be a certain balance issue or an issue with implementing this, but as it stands now true melee is a very unreliable way yet also kind of a suggested way of playing (through the rare accessory found in the mushroom shrine)
Adding an accessory that let's true melee deal true damage would not only increase the viability but also the reliability of true melee weapons, giving them an edge against certain bosses/enemies that have a very high amount of DR when compared to other ways of playing.
A way to balance this could be by making true melee weapons deal less total damage in return or making the player also receive a percentage in true damage when they get hit.

Buff some of the Wulfrum weapons and tools. They look really nice and most are a waste entirely to craft. Compared to gear from the starter bag: The Wulfrum Drones do 1-3 more damage than the Squirrel summons but are a lot less intelligent. The pickaxe and axe are the same as tier 1 ore. The Wulfrum staff does less damage than the Amethyst Staff. They are outclassed by items you start with as soon as you spawn.

The Calamity mod has a lot of rich lore hidden within the game. However, the average player most likely will not ever be able to uncover this lore due to how little of it is presented in the actual game. If you want to learn more, you have to go to an outside source, such as the wiki or #lore-discussion . I believe that all of the pieces of the lore should be available to someone without venturing beyond the game’s code, which is why I suggest...

The Notebook

The Notebook is a menu that is accessible through the inventory, similar to the Log Book from Boss Checklist. As you play through the game, the book slowly fills up with more and more short excerpts about the lore. For example, defeating Slime God and crafting some Statigel Armor unlocks a couple of sentences about Statis and who he was.

The game itself, despite having a surprising amount of lore, doesn’t have a reliable way of exposing it to the player. Sure, there are the lore items, but those provide such little insight into the bosses they come from that they might as well not be there. The Notebook would solve that by slowly providing the player more and more context as to the world that they’re exploring.

Nerf the spent fuel container or make it a post plantera weapon.* I’ve been playing with a rogue character and testing this weapon, and it seems incredibly overpowered for its tier. It’s available post-AS and it completely outclasses other rogue weapons of its tier, and even most of the post plantera rogue weapons. It’s “upgrade”, the Totality Breakers, is an upgrade to the other two ingredients (Desecrated and Consecrated Water) due to inconsistent damage midair, but this weapon has so much damage and such a wacky hit box that it barely matters as long as you can see the ground on screen. This weapon needs some readjustment in my opinion. If it is moved to post plantera, it should also be removed from the recipe for Totality Breakers. Totality Breakers seems like a support weapon whereas the SFC feels like a mega buffed consecrated water focused on damage. It seems like a natural upgrade to consecrated water, but it’s available at almost the same tier. If it is moved, it should stay a stand-alone weapon because adding it to Supernova crafting tree would be too much.

A new shopping window with the Goblin: Exact Reforging. The option would exist to open a buy menu and place your item in a slot similar to reforging. However the Goblin would have a number of items for sale. These could just be colored dots or small animated flames or whatever, but the idea is that buying one would change the quality of the item placed in the slot to exactly what you want. So for example if I put in a sword, the buy menu would be filled with one item for each quality from Broken to Legendary. This would be rather time saving and allow people to set up challenge maps and give their players exactly the gear they want the stage when they find it much easier. In order to balance this the cost would be higher, say 10x the normal reforging cost for an item at no attached prefix?

Add a way to manually Summon Betsy

As of Right now Betsy can only be fought by completing the entirety of The Ones Army up to the final wave, She also has a legendary weapon (Vesuvius) and that has a 1 in 100 chance to drop. This means that statistically you would have to play through the Old Ones Army dozens of times to even have a SHOT at getting it and thats kind of absurd. Adding a summoning item would not only make the boss easier to get to in the first place, but would also save hours or even days of grinding.

Please, change the way platforms work. Many of us here use platforms in order to make arenas, we use campfires and things such as magic ball to get buffed during the boss fight. But there is a catch, we can't place "heart lanterns" and "star in a bottle" on them, we have to use blocks instead. And by placing those blocks we make boss battles much more challenging, we can accidently bump into them while flying, resulting in us getting hit by a boss.

Give the player some alternative method of obtaining Chlorophyte ore other than mining/farming it in mud

Reasoning is quite simple: Chlorophyte is a powerful ore once you get to mine it, and it generates in Jungle in packs like any other ore. What's the big deal here? Holes. Tunnels. Whatever you wish to call them. They are made solely to get that precious ore, and in 90% cases, these tunnels are never used afterwards. They just stay there, making your world look like you got a stroke. This can make a builder go nuts, bacause he/she would have to fill all this to make a building. An alternative is to mine a few Chlorophyte ore blocks and farm them, but seriously, who would wait hours for it to grow? You got a Golem to beat, and Chlorophyte gear won't appear out of thin air!

I propose to give it a new way of being obtained. One way would be to give it to the Crates after defeating Plantera? Or you could give them into silt/slush Extractinator loot table post Plant, since that thing is basically untouched by CalamityMod at all.
Lastly, one could consider giving some of it to Plantera drop table, since Plantera is literally a PLANT, and Chlorophyte is literally behaving like a PLANT, so why not give connection to the two?

Make Nuclear Terror drop a Bloodworm upon death
Nuclear Terror currently serves as nothing more than an obstacle. They spawn in, force out other enemy spawns for a good while, then die with you only getting 3-4% event progression for your troubles. For being the mini-boss of tier 3, them not dropping anything is really odd.

Bloodworms are really difficult to get before killing Old Duke. They only spawn during Acid Rain, have only five health which is basically nothing, and aren't picked up by Lifeform Analyzer. That low health combined with being during one of the most dangerous events in the game means that even when they do spawn they don't stick around long enough to catch.

The solution to both of these problems would thus be to make Nuclear Terrors drop Bloodworms. Nuclear Terrors would end up more useful, Bloodworms would be easier to get so that you can get an Old Duke fight where you can actually see, and catching Bloodworms wouldn't be made pointless due to the low amount of Nuclear Terrors in any given Acid Rain.

Also worth noting that a living Bloodworm would also work as a drop, assuming it was given initial invincibility so that it immediately doesn't perish.

Have the Old One’s Army mobs drop defender medals in the same way that lunar enemies drop celestial fragments post Golem. The amount of grinding through the OOA is tedious at best due to the nature of this vanilla event. Buying the armor sets and such from the Tavernkeep is a laborious process due to the low output of defender’s medals in each tier. A change like this makes sense with the existing event change to the celestial pillars and makes much of the content from the OOA more accessible to players that actually want it (including the XL sized safes otherwise known as defender’s forges). It would also compliment the recent expansion to summoner in calamity by giving a bit more options for stationary summons.

Reasons:

Consistency. Cosmic Immat. is a minion summon, yet it uses a sentry in it's recipe. Not only that, it's the only sentry there.
Weapon progression. Currently, CI sits at 10 weapons in it's recipe (not counting itself). This is surprisingly low for an exo-tier weapon. Replacing Energy Staff with CVP would bump that number up to 14.

Improve UI flexibility for Rage/Adren/Stealth bars;

Partial opacity, layout variation, and just generally making the bars more flexible and less obstructive would be welcome.

Personal preference would be being able to have the rage/adren bars oriented vertically with partial opacity, to the left and right of the player, with the stealth bar below. With the way it is currently, having them centered is too obstructive and additionally they block cursor interactions such as mining blocks, etc.

Any improvements are welcome

Add/change more summoning accessories dedicated to sentry slots.

Vanilla Terraria accessories allow you to get quite a few extra sentries, but Calamity has no accessories that add extra sentry slots (as far as im aware). There doesn't need to be like +5 sentries in one accessory because that's a bit overpowered, but maybe up to +2 or +3 sentries by the time you are fighting SCal should be balanced enough. Just incorporating this into already existing summoner accessories would be fine, or maybe combining all the vanilla accessories into one and throwing that into the grand summoner accessory crafting tree could work too.

having to wait for him to despawn can take awhile as he has to reach the end of the underworld to do so, (as normally you would be starting the fight far away from the end of the world.)

Perhaps nerf the Spent Fuel Container. It's a drop from the acid rain event that absolutely shreds. Plantera and Golem, which are somewhat farther into the run than the acid rain event last maybe 15 or so seconds. I think this might be unintentional because the Totality Breakers (which uses the spent fuel container) is so much of a downgrade it's honestly laughable in my opinion. My suggestion would be to make the AOE smaller, and perhaps do less damage. I don't think I should be able to carpet bomb the jungle with a zerg potion and have no problem with a weapon you obtain so early into hardmode.

Enforce a sentry summon cap from ooa sentries.
Why? You can use this and a simple trick to literally prevent any boss from spawning projectiles. Currently the limit is 1k, and the ooa sentries count as projectiles. Using a simple pitfall acutator trap allows you to use stored Etherian Mana (simply done by putting them into a chest and opening it while the event is going, the acutator trap prevents them from murdering the crystal.) To cap out the projectile limit. And thus Every boss is ruined basically.

Make Reaper Teeth drop in bigger quantity
Reason: As things are right now, getting enough Reaper Teeth to craft what you want, like the Omega Blue armor, is very tedious, because of the fact that Reaper Sharks only drop 3 or 4 teeth at a time. Combine that with the fact that you have to watch out for the other Abyss minibosses and hope that the Reaper Shark spawns, while also having to look out for your underwater breating is pretty annoying. Increasing the amount dropped to about 5-10 per kill, the same as the amount dropped from the Abyssal Crate, may make the grind somewhat easier on the player.

Add more early to midgame tools based on the idea of large-scale excavation.
❓ Especially on higher difficulties, it is impossible to deny that building large-scale arenas isn't just a luxury, it's a necessity. However, it is painful to do in certain places compared to others; specifically, the Dungeon, the Underworld, and the Underground Jungle. The biggest offender, especially on Death Mode, is the Wall of Flesh; you're going to be at the very least clearing out a large area in the underworld, even if you're not building an arena for him. Between obsidian and hellstone buildings, and mountains of ash, if you do not do this, it is very difficult to navigate Hell quickly enough to not get hit by the WoF. As a result, it's by far the most painful arena to make, because you're also making it before you get access to Hardmode resources. Therefore, tools like this would really help.

Although it's my own speculation that the two magic and summoning weapons are class counterparts, It would be more fitting and consistent for there to be (an item or upgrade for the Blossom Staffs similar to) a Frigidflash Blossom Staff due to how fire and ice weapons can form into a stronger item in early Hardmode.

Reduce the amount of Probes summoned in Skeletron Prime's fight in Rev+, or just straight up remove the Probes from the fight altogether
In case Skeletron Prime would feel too easy or too simple without the Probes, a function it could gain in return is some sort of attack it could utilize while it spins that would force the player to weave through projectiles, fitting into Prime generally requiring relatively precise dodging to dodge its many projectiles.
Reason for this suggestion: Currently, i feel that Prime's fight is harder than it needs to be. In Revengeance Mode and up Prime requires you to weave through laser rings and rocket shotgun blasts while at the same time the Probes block your way as you run away from Prime's headspin and seem like they want you to circle them to dodge their lasers, often meaning you'll fly directly into another of Prime's projectiles. I feel this needlessly clutters the fight and makes it harder than it should reasonably be.

Contrabandist however will be there every day. Contrabandist's inventory will be different every day and to balance things out he will have much higher prices compared to Travelling Merchant. And to make him more unique, he'll also sell some stuff exclusive to him, so the players will have to visit him every day to see what he can offer.
edit: Maybe he can change his inventory if you bribe him?

Buff the sell price of Shadowfish.
❔ This fish can only be caught in the Brimstone Crag, in lava, and has no other uses. It sells for 8 silver. The Neon Tetra sells for twice as much, despite being in a way safer place to fish (jungle), and you don't need to get a specific fishing rod to catch it. Right now, this thing only exists as selling fodder, and it's worse at it than a fish that requires way less effort to catch.

Make the acid rain event faster to complete

If you want to fight the old duke you have to complete the acid rain event, but it takes a very long time to complete. Me and my 2 friends where fighting enemies in the event for a good 15 minutes with Zerg potions and we still only got it to around 75%, and on top of all of that my game and my friends games where lagging like crazy, which made it even longer. Im not sure if we where doing something wrong but if we were not that is absurd on how long it took us.

Make Heat Prevention gear work against lava geysers (Death Mode)
The reason for this suggestion is that it just makes sense for heat prevention gear to protect the player from lava geysers (since it's really hot matter).

Although it makes sense for heat prevention gear to protect the player from lava, the reason would be that the lava geysers can be really obnoxious sometimes while mining, building or fighting; nobody wants to be hit by something that shouldn't even logically damage them if they have a protection for that type of thing (in this case, heat).

However, since this suggestion could nullify the threats of the Underworld in Death Mode, the lava geysers should still be able to push the player up.

Make it so the color your hearts and mana stars change to upon using permanent upgrades like Blood Orange and Comet Shard depends on which upgrade you use instead of how many you've consumed already.

When I looked through the permanent power-ups page and saw the different colors my hearts and mana stars can change to, I thought about which color I wanted them to be in the end and was surprised to see that, when I actually used them ingame, Elderberry (a blue fruit) turned my hearts green (I deliberately skipped Miracle Fruit and planned to use it last so my hearts could be green in the end).

I think, with so many other things pertaining to your character being fully customizable, from the hairstyle to the color you want your Slime Mount to be, being able to determine the color of your hearts/mana stars after consuming all permanent upgrades would be a nice addition. Also, as mentioned above, Elderberry turning my hearts green doesn't make much sense.

"You could just not consume all fruits and your hearts will be the color you wa-" no ma'am, this is not how you calamity.

Remove the Great Sand Shark and relocate its drop.

The Great Sand Shark serves basically no purpose and seems like an enemy that was hastily added in just because it seemed cool. The fight is boring and mundane, and it ends up becoming more of an intrusion on the sandstorm rather than a fun challenge. Its drop could very easily be a rare drop from regular Sand Sharks if the GSS were to be removed.

The Normal mode Boss Material Drop Cap Amount should be increased in order to Match that of Expert mode Drop caps

Reason:
-I find it unnecessary for bosses to drop lesser amounts of mats when Normal mode is enabled, as opposed to Expert. Just keep the Cap for Normal mode the exact same as Expert mode, there is no need for to replicate all vanilla features... First of all The calamity mod is a content mod that expands upon the game and fixes issues after all? One of these issues is the Mats Cap when killing bosses, why is this a issue you say? I will explain shortly, secondly Calamity offers a pretty challenging roster of bosses, like Dog, Yharon, Scal etc. some of these bosses remain challenging even in Normal mode.

-The amount of mats you acquire when you defeat these bosses is pretty dreadful as well, especially when you worked so hard to get to the Climactic moment... The moment where the boss gets defeated, now i would expect you to make the following statement "but no one plays normal mode". You are Wrong you cannot make such a statement, there are people who play normal mode out there and they have to deal with the reduced drop mats cap, and since they picked normal mode they are most likely amateurs aswell, Meaning they'll have trouble with the mod.

-This change can also apply to Vanilla bosses if you desire dev team, i would not imagine a change such as this to be difficult to program into the game

Further information: Even if this Sugg gets dropped, there are bosses in the mod that are not affected by this and have the same Cap for both modes.. One of these bosses would be Provi, she drops the same amount of Divine Geodes regardless of difficulty mode (10-15)... Apologies for rambling on and on, this is a required change in my eyes.

To improve the cleanliness of #suggestions-voting and replace the ineffective ❕ system: Separate the #suggestions-voting channel into two new channels: suggestion_posting and suggestion_display (or similar names)

Details: The public would only be able to post into the sugg_posting channel. There's no voting here. Suggs must be officially given the "go-ahead" by a moderator and then either the bot or the OP (somehow) would repost it into the sugg_display channel, where it would be voted on, and the sugg_posting post would get deleted. If not approved, the sugg_posting suggs would automatically get deleted after a day or so (therefore the channel is almost always near-empty).

Reason: This would make the suggestions channel (now suggestion_display) a lot cleaner and it would force people to actually read the rules and listen to mods, if they care at all about their suggestion. Currently the moderation review system indicated by the ❕ reaction is not very effective: the reaction doesn't signify anything concrete, suggesters don't pay much attention to it nor even know what it means sometimes, and moderators aren't always the best at removing it. Problematic suggestions may persist in the channel, never fixed and never deleted.
By making it so suggestions need to be approved before even having a chance at delivery or permanence, the quality of posted suggestions would improve drastically. (And the "ding-dong-ditchers", who post their sugg then ignore any pings or feedback, would be utterly destroyed).

Make vanilla and calamity music boxes craftable
Reason: For those collectors out there ~~like me~~ who like getting every banner, trophy, mask, vanity set or music boxes always faces the prob of getting music boxes for all soundtracks, so far the only way of doing it is by having an empty music box in an accessory slot and waiting for it to record the current playing theme. The problem here is that it also includes boss fights, and the chance of the music box recording the theme can be really low.
Solution: perhaps make music boxes craftable, using materials and blocks of the fitting theme, other ways to fix this are letting the bosses drop their respective music boxes at a certain chance, or just having an NPC sell them ~~no chance of that so whatever.'~~

A litlle nerf for the executioners blade

So this weapon is really powerful, i was able to kill yharon phase 1 in like a 1,5 minute with good buffs and equipment (it was all pre-yharon), and phase 2, without the healing part in a similiar time.
I even considered it on a similiar level with celestus or supernova at some points.

It really only takes that litlle, to have something that powerful. I think it should be a litlle nerfed. Not too much tho, otherwise it'll go the opposite direction and make the weapon useless

Old One's Army Boss Rush
This one is pretty simple - killing hundreds of etherian goblins waiting for a dragon, to get my 1% legendary drop - Isn't fun. I propose some kind of Old One's Boss Rush. With just "Old One's" bosses instead of the usual cannon fodder. The event is kinda cool, I guess, and has some niche weapons, but they are kind of a bore to obtain. Just let me fight 30 Ogres at once while being scorched from above.

For ideas on how this would be implemented, an endless wave mechanic could trigger after wave 6 on a Tier 3 event, spawning bosses at an exponential rate until the crystal is destroyed.

I'm really not sure about this suggestion but i'll try anyway: make fuel cell bundle (and maybe virili) synergize with plague hive, as in "make the mini plaguebringer (and some of virili's attacks) count as bees or wasps and be empowered by the plague hive". these minions aren't really that weak but they're largely overshadowed by a lot of other minions (some obtainable even before PBG) and making them stronger while equipping the plague hive could really give them their time to shine, even if it's only for astrum deus and moon lord. Plus, it would be accurate lore-wise since plaguebringers and their variants are just armored bees!

Bumblebirb’s smaller birbs should get a resprite
Okay, so we know when you fight Bumblebirb it makes smaller, juvenile birbs to fight you. I feel like the juveniles should actually look like... well, juveniles! The small birbs should get their own sprite that actually look like younger birbs. Take Mothron for example the thing that Birb was based on, when it spawns its baby Mothrons they actually look like baby Mothrons. Bumble should get something like that

Why?
Because right now, the Bumblebirb juveniles are just shrunk down sprites of the adult making it look like the birb is spawning smaller adults rather than young birbs which I don’t think looks right

Add More Phases to the DoG Fight
(either adding more phases to his blue/purple cycle or adding independent attacks as his health decreases)

DoG is meant to be one of the most powerful bosses in the game, part of a trio of the end game bosses with SCal and Yharon. However, he is nothing more than just a big worm who charges at you and occasionally fires laser/fire. As such, I think that adding different phases to DoG’s fight could help with providing variety and more difficulty in fighting DoG. Since DoG relies on the fact that he has consumed the essence of powerful beings, I’ll focus on that for these new phases.

Statis is a master assassin and rogue, and DoG would probably absorb some of that power in the form of portal travel. Since Braelor is a jungle leader and warrior, summoning cosmic minions could show that DoG has command over far more than what we see in the Sentinels of the Devourers and the Cosmic Guardians.

One last note, this is not the precise guide for what DoG should be. Exactly how these phases are executed is really up to the devs, but the current execution of DoG’s fight doesn’t force much challenge or learning on the player, so giving him more phases distinct from his originals helps make sure that DoG is a memorable fight in a playthrough.

configurable option to remove melee speed cap.
It is invasive as a feature, if there cant be any way in the main game to remove the cap then an option would be appreciated
edit: ive given reasons as to why i feel melee speed cap isnt the greatest in the past, kinda not even bothering anymore

Reasons: Initial reason was to prevent it from breaking yoyos, it doesnt do that anymore, most melee projectiles already have a cap to how many projectiles they can shoot regardless of speed, and overall a blanket nerf to a stat isnt the best way to fix an issue with a few specific weapons
Also, true melee in vanilla has always been a risk reward. You have to get in close to be able to hit, but risk taking damage. The melee speed nerf discourages this playstyle.
And lastly, based on use times and whatnot the currently, any weapon with a use time of 4 can be shortened to 1 frame due to rounding and auto swing. If there were no cap whatsoever, a maximum of 274% melee speed would be possible, and that would be using all vanilla armor (since theres only 3 calamity armors that give melee speed, 2 being negligible and the other being endgame) all accessories being feral claws and its variants and all violent and also running all melee speed buffs. This isnt at all viable really but this would be the max melee speed possible.

PS: The "stellar striker destroys worm" gif is outdated as hell, its using death mode's 800% damage boosting adrenaline and maybe even the old death modes rage as well, neither of which are anywhere near as effective

Revert the crit chance nerf on the accesory modifiers and instead nerf the crit chance given by accesories or the weapons themselves

Well heres the deal [math done with unnerfed modifiers], all lucky accesories (which can be a bitch to get thanks to your money drain also know as tinkerer) gives you 28% crit chance, the weapon reforges can add up another 5%, and a lot of weapons have the default 4% crit chance (which can be lowered)

All of this barely adds up to 39% crit chance, which all things considered, its not half bad for all it implies, adding up the other 61% crit chance to reach 100% (basically the reason why they were nerfed) is solely up to what crit chance the weapon got set to and how much accesories give

TL;DR: I dont feel its fair to nerf the thing that gives barely 28% crit after spending lots of money when the real issue is the more than 50% the other elements give

Note: Someone said lucky is useless post ml which makes the matter even worse cuz holy crap how much crit does the items give

Nerf the damage of the sand blasts done by Desert Scourge.
Since the sand blasts only fire in Revengeance or Death mode, they are supposed to be an extra challenge, but a quick swing by the wiki lets you know that they do 60 damage base. Even with a full Platinum set (a reasonably defensive armor with 20 armor) damage done by the blasts is upwards of 40+. Keep in mind that this boss is intended to be fought before the Eye of Cthulhu and a player at that point would have around 200 hp on a reasonable playthrough so a few lucky potshots can end the battle there. I'm not against the sand blasts as a whole, they are a good extra challenge and prevent just sitting still the entire fight, but the 2 smaller scourges that move faster are already enough of a challenge boost, so having a projectile that's dealing early hardmode damage is absolute overkill. I say nerf the damage of the blasts to 25 and increase their speed, or to 40 and keep the speed as is.

2 Small Crystyl Crusher Improvements

Currently, the Crystyl crusher has the beam for its primary fire and the pickaxe for the secondary use. If you are building something and want to select your pickaxe to get rid of something, you would use auto select to select your pickaxe. However, if you use the crystyl crusher’s primary fire on purpose or by accident, even if the beam doesn’t come out, auto select doesn’t see the crystyl crusher as a pickaxe. Therefore, if you forget that it’s not a normal pickaxe and won’t work like a pickaxe when you left click, then you have to manually go to your pickaxe and use the secondary fire to make auto select work again. To fix this, the crystyl crusher should still count as a pickaxe even if you last used the primary fire.

The crystyl crusher has the use of a normal pickaxe again because of the update. However, currently the crystyl crusher, used as an actual pickaxe breaks blocks slower than a luminite pickaxe or blossom pickaxe. This makes absolutely no sense as both of those pickaxes are used in the crystyl crusher recipe. To fix this, the crystyl crushers speed should be reverted to what it was or at least be made as fast as a blossom pickaxe.

Improve yharon's nadoes to appear faded at the start and become darker later to signal that they start damaging the player

Currently, once yharon's nadoes are placed down, it will take a few seconds before it will start damaging the player. However, we do not know when exactly it will start to do so and it is weird to just suddenly get hit/die while chilling and aiming at yharon inside the nado he just placed. Having the nado to turn darker to signal that it starts damaging the player will be both more visually appealing and make it more obvious to the player when he should avoid the nado immediately.

Some kind of npc/hologram/boss' ghost/variants of boss summons than can be used to train with a particularly hard phase of a boss, i.e. duke fishron/yharon's last phase
A lot of bosses have a easy-ish initial phase and a omfg please end my existence and don't let me reincarnate phase
To go to the harder phase, one must beat the easier phase first, and it's a bit grindy and frustrating.
For example, when I was beating DoG, i sucked at the laser wall phase first.
It took me 1-2 minutes before I could defeat the first worm and its three sentinels before reaching that phase
So I lost patience and spawned with Hero's mod the second worm
Yeah it takes some of the difficulty out of the battles but this item doesn't really make a boss less difficult, it improves the player's skill.

Make it so that only one abyss miniboss can be alive at a time.
Reason: farming enemies down there is really annoying if you have to fight a reaper shark and an eidolon wyrm at the same time, especially since the eidolon wyrms can toss you around for no reason other than "screw you". Farming for reaper teeth or The Reaper is awful because of this. If only one were alive accidentally aggroing another boss and making your life miserable would not be an issue.

Add an secondary fire to the Cosmic Discharge
Why?: Simply for consisteny and its usefulness, the Cosmic Discharge is the only legendary weapon without an secondary fire and on top of that its primary fire is, for that point of progression (post DoG), pretty weak against anything but the pumpkin moon and frost moon and it's really risky to use against yharon as it requires the player to get nearly in true melee range of him. So it would be nice if it got an longer range secondary fire as it is an legendary weapon and should be useable for a bit longer than two events as you likely will have to farm it if you want to get it.

Rework The Enforcer and Stream Gouge into true melee weapons.

❔
True melee has always been treated very strangely in the Calamity world, despite being the intended focus of melee (well, until shit like Vamp Knives and Daybreak happened), and has always been on a rollercoaster ride between excessively viable and not viable at all. Perhaps the biggest anomaly for its viability comes right after the Devourer of Gods, where the player receives an enormous boost to true melee weapons with a mighty +50% true melee damage...

...at precisely the point where you stop getting true melee weapons that function. Giving these two some true melee focus would not only perhaps help them stand out a bit more as weapons amongst the oversaturation of projectile melee post-DoG, but would also help to give DoG's lore item renewed purpose in the grand scheme of things, even if only for a short time.

Add some sort of way to make bosses their Boss Rush variants after beating it or Supreme Calamitas

The Boss Rush is a really fun event and currently is the only place to test the weapons dropped by scal. However, it is the only content where using the dev weapons might actually be appropriate, and I also think that you should be able to take on said buffed bosses on there own because each one can be a very fun twist on the original fight. You could implement this post-boss rush or post scal, with the scal option meaning you figure out a strategy to effectively take down later bosses in the run, as dying there can be quite frustrating sometimes. I think the item that triggers this should be a toggle and should be a drop from scal herself, only affecting her after you beat her on boss rush as she is the only boss nerfed in boss rush iirc

Give the statigel armor it's own double jump that isn't just the tsunami jump

In harder challenge modes like Death and Armageddon, mobility is crucial, and even outside the extra double jump is nice. The thing is, the jump doesn't stack with the tsunami in a bottle. This causes the problem of making the set bonus a lot more obsolete, because normally it's a big help, but it does absolutely nothing if paired with the pink horseshoe balloon. This has been an apparent thing in a few of my runs now, and I think it should be improved.

Add some form of upgrade for the Staff of Regrowth.
❔ On higher difficulties, potions are not optional; they are essentially required. However, due to the sheer amount of potions you're inevitably going to need, farming potion ingredients/plants quickly becomes a chore. Therefore, adding something to cut down on the grind would be welcome.

(While yes, stuffed fish and blood orbs are a thing, stuffed fish are fish; farming for them essentially turns a waiting game into a grindfest, which is arguably even worse. Blood orbs are sweet, but until you get bloodflare armor, good luck getting them in large enough quantities to make up the difference.)

Make the Martian Saucer 'uncheesable' in revengeance
Everyone's done it: beat it by standing under solid blocks. However, due to Calamity's nature of being 'uncheesable' especially in modes like reveangance and amount and value of the loot the saucer drops, I think it is necessary for there to be an AI change. Additionallyy, Calamity consists of a content overhaul to vanilla terraria, including the introduction of more weapons that phase through walls. This makes it more easier than ever to cheese and not only takes out the fun and thrill of completing the fight, but also takes away the risk from the reward.

Grant fountains the ability to temporarily change the biome.
❔ Fishing is something rather tedious. It's slow, grindy, and you can't do anything else while you're doing it. On top of that, you have to either travel to one of many fishing ponds, or put down enough blocks to change the biome manually in one pond; blocks that aren't safe and will probably infect the biome you put them in. This change would fix those problems, and retain most of the hazards associated with fishing in dangerous areas.

Improve rev+ Skeleton Prime's fight to make it fairer
It is known that Prime is a tricky boss fight for its tier; however much of this difficulty is brought by certain issues. Here are some examples along with suggestions for solving said issues.

First, Prime's limbs suffer from a rubberbanding issue, as in they can lag behind when the head moves around, only to catch up later by moving at a very high speed. This often leads to cheap hits due to having almost no time to react to the retracting limb. It could be solved by giving the limbs a maximum distance from the head and/or making them return more slowly, without the laser/cannon shooting from offscreen.

Second, this fight is too chaotic for its tier. In your average fight you have several threats: five boss entities which mostly act on their own, two (or three) of which can simultaneously shoot spreads of projectiles while they all flail around. This is too much to handle; all this chaos gives the fight an element of luck, which is unacceptable. To solve this, one could reduce the amount of hitboxes flailing around by removing contact damage from the laser,cannon and head (1st phase only for the head). The fight would still be challenging, posing a threat to players at any distance, but now reasonably so.

Third and last, the boss has a habit of coming at you in an unpredictable manner when spawned, which often results in cheap shots right off the bat. This could be solved by making it unable to damage or be damaged for a few seconds after spawning.

On a sidenote, the rubberband-hands issue also happens with regular Skeletron, leading to a similar issue.

Add a config to disable the generation of Planetoids

When playing with other mods that generate structures in the sky, they tend to overlap planetoids. I find that they can also get in the way while making large-scale arenas. There’s also the fact that everything that generates in planetoids can be obtained through other means.

Make DoG faster/more aggressive in expert mode

Right now, DoG is is the third to last boss in the game, and if what I've heard is true, it's a very difficult fight in rev+. As an expert player, however, I found it to be pretty easy. Stats like HP and damage were fine, but I felt most of the fight was just me chasing him with a scythe so I could hit his head or tail. Even when he did charge me, it was pretty simple to dodge, he's only slightly faster than a player w/ angel treads. I really feel like one or both of these stats need buffs, it's still a really fun fight, but the difficulty was just kind of anti climactic, especially since I got whooped by Old Duke just minutes before killing DoG.

Give Desert Scourge a projectile that can go through walls or greater maximum height that it can charge to above the ground. the boss can be easily killed by builing a platform from dirt above the desert with no connecting blocks.

For the Asgard's Valor, Elysian Aegis, and Elysian Aegias, could there be some other way to toggle the dash?

Currently they're toggled through visibility, which can be a little bit annoying if you want to use it, since these shields are absolutely massive and cover up the entire front of your character (including some of your face.) Maybe it could be toggled through a button on your inventory screen like cell phone stats or grand design ruler?

Increase the speed of Old Duke's dashes and projectiles if the player is too far away (resuggestion)

Reason: Currently, Old Duke has a pretty small threat area. His dashes have long gaps between them and his projectiles like the Tooth Balls are too slow to be a threat. This makes him easy to outrun, especially if you use things that can quickly get you out of his small threat area like the Normality Relocator or the jelly bean mount. Because of this Old Duke is made easy to despawn, to try and force you to stay in his threat area. Even with him being able to be despawned easily it's still not that hard to just outrun it without staying far away for too long. Instead of making Old Duke easier to despawn, I think it would be a lot better to fix this issue by letting him and his projectiles catch up to you, similar to Yharon. For being a post-Polterghast boss, it shouldn't be avoided this easily by running away, and it needs faster charges and projectiles to be able to keep up with the player so they can't just run away for most of the fight.

The option to fight boss rush variants of bosses outside of the boss rush
Whether it would use a seperate spawner, have some sort of location requirement, or something else aside, the ability to fight any of the boss-rush buffed bosses by choice would be a nice addition to post-Supreme Calamitas Calamity, and would probably open up opportunities for extra content in the future. Adding to it, it would also allow for practice on bosses that players are rather lackluster on to improve chances of success without lowering the difficulty.

Easter Egg for hydrating the Desert Scourge
As per the lore of the boss, it's a husk of its former self due to the loss of its primary water and food supply. As a water gun (and many other sources of transporting water) exist in Terraria, it would be nice to add an Easter Egg if you used the water gun (or another source of water) on the Desert Scourge enough times, like an exclusive item; maybe based on the old, less dried-out sprite of the Desert Scourge.

Make the Sentinels of the Devourer drop Treasure Bags

Currently there's no efficient way to farm them, unlike other bosses (where we can use arma) or mobs (where we can use candles and potions). Since they have rare drops (cough guidelight of oblivion cough) it'd only be fair to provide an option to increase the chances of getting those drops. So I suggest making them drop Treasure Bags, so they get affected by Arma.

Add a recipe for the bat hook.
This is currently a super good grappling hook that's out of most players reach due to its seasonal time frame, and if the hand warmer can get a recipe.. Why can't the bat hook? Could make it use a dual hook and a broken bat wing from vampires in the solar eclipse perhaps? This would give a strong hook option till post ml where the lunar hook becomes available. This would also ease a lot of bosses, namely pbg and Duke fishron with a stronger grappling hook than the dual hook at their disposal to fill the gap between dual hook up to lunar hook.

Add a new Summoner Weapon that can be made using Auric bars

Currently, Summoners only get to make 1 weapon out of Auric bars, compared to the other classes (rogues get 2, mages get 3, rangers get 4 and melee gets 6). Adding another weapon will give summoners more choices and more incentive to mine more auric. Perhaps a new Sentry weapon? The last one is from Old Duke, which is Pre-DoG. That will give summoners more things to do during boss fights (summoning towers near bosses).

Give the Dark Spark a red beam. I couldn't tell what was off about it at first, but the problem is no red. It makes it look wacky. The Dark Spark is based off of The Dark Side of the Moon by Pink Floyd, and that album has a red beam coming from the prism. In fact, both the weapon and the album cover have SIX different beams. That means it would be an easy fix.

Album has normal rainbow: Red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple
Calamity weapon has a weird almost-rainbow: Orange, yellow, green, blue, pink, purple

So close, but just "off" enough to be weird. Get rid of the pink beam and make it red, and possibly even change the order of the beams to match the red/orange/yellow/green/blue/purple order of the album cover.

Change some of Moon Lord's attacks.

Make his Eyes not do contact damage while they are still in his hands.
With the amount of projectiles and attacks that are going on, this can reduce dodging options and force you to take some hits, either from the Eye itself, or other attacks
Make Phantasmal Spheres not do damage for a while after being spawed.
This can cause quite a few cheap hits on player while trying to fly upwards when being in the middle of ML's hands.
Reason for this: You can't really outrun ML, with only way I know of being flying diagonaly up or down. And even if you manage to put some distance between you and ML, there are still a lot of projectiles that can hit you, not counting the Death Ray. If you are positioned between his hands, or close to them, the amount of projectiles requires sheer luck to dodge, and these changes could IMO change that.

change the minion that comes out of the statigel summoner armor set bonus
currently, this set bonus gives you (beside the usual effects) a "new" minion a mini "slime god"
this slime god junior act just like every other slime summon in PHM: jumping around and doing damage.
the big problem is that there are 2 different slime staffs gotten at the exact same stage, they look and act the exact same way and they don't have any big damage difference making the slime god summon just a waist of a potion slot.
farther more post the wall of flesh this summon is hardly useful.
there are a bunch of ways to fix this problem and i will lay most of them out for the devs to decide which way is the best to act on:

change the potion buff ID to match the ones with the normal slime summons's buff ID to remove the major down side.
change the summon it self to make it unique and more useful in EHM and cryogen.
remove the minion entirely and add a bigger buff to all normal summons and sentries.

Buff the range of the lasers the Devourer of Gods shoots in the first phase.
Why? These lasers are possibly the most pitiful projectiles in Terraria, outclassing projectiles like the infamous wand of sparking in sheer irrelevancy. These projectiles, are so weak that if shot directly at a stationary object at point blank range, would fizzle out and dissipate before doing anything at all, and even if they did, would have about no effect as they do about as much damage as the aforementioned wand of sparking projectile. Also, I’m not a god at the game who has never taken damage before but even still, I can’t recall a single time when I’ve ever been hit by them, they are nothing but a flashy light in the first phase of the Devourer of Gods, and because of this the only thing that can actually kill you is contact damage from dog or Cosmic Guardians. They’re a joke and should have their range buffed at least to a point when once in a blue moon they might hit you. At least make the lasers on par with normal mode destroyer.

Make it so that instead of summon damage being nerfed when using another weapon, do the reverse: Non-summon damage is nerfed when using a summon (in Rev+).

As it stands, there's really no reason not to have a few summons out all the time. They're just free damage. If you're a summoner, you are punished for using other weapons, but if you're another class, you're not punished for using summons. That's a little backwards.

Reduce the rate at which aureus fires its clusters of projectiles and/or its total health pool
Aureus is a hard boss for its tier. While some classes have the damage to nuke it (rogue with duststorm for example), other classes can struggle quite a bit more as its health pool is extremely large (more than double golem's cumulative health). The rate at which it spams projectiles is pretty insane when lower on health and between the aureus spawns and the homing fireballs it genuinely reaches scal levels of bullet hell at times. Its significantly easier to fight golem and come back with stronger gear than to attempt to fight aureus at the intended point in progression, which seems like a problem to me.

Change ||Dragonfolly||'s name back to ||Bumblebirb||, or find a better fitting name
||With the recent rename of Bumblebirb, I feel that the name "dragonfolly" is simply too odd and not very iconic. Bumblebirb was an incredbly iconic name which did fit the former sprite although I still believe it does not fit the current sprite. In my opinion, if the cost of a bumblebirb resprite is losing its iconicness due to a name change, then the resprite is not worth it in ultimately improving the mod. I think two suitable solutions would be to resprite dragonfolly again, but to better fit the name Bumblebirb, or alternatively to search for another different but iconic name to both fit the sprite and remain interesting enough to stay iconic. Resending the poll but without the option to keep the name the same will give the opinions of those who voted against renaming it, getting a potentially more accurate and better perceived name from the community.||

Make Brain of Cthulhu more resistant to knockback in Rev+

Brain of Cthulhu is and always been a bit of a pushover, even in higher difficulties, which I believe to be largely due to the fact that he's very passive in his first phase, and rarely able to hit you in his second phase if your weapon deals any consistent form of knockback. This is rectified a bit by Rev+'s special attack that ignores knockback, but by that point in the fight he's fairly low on health. Weapons like the Hyphae Rod, Arkhalis, and any other fast weapon completely invalidate him as a boss, which is why I suggest he should have increased knockback resistance.

Reason: Currently, the Elemental Quiver uses only the Daedalus Emblem and the Magic Quiver. Because of this, EleQuiver inherits the bonus bow damage and arrow speed.
This seems unfair. The ultimate ranger accessory favors bows over other types of weapons. (yes, I know it's a quiver. honestly I believe that should be changed too). Adding the Sniper Scope would help smoothe this out, potentially also giving guns additional bullet speed or decreased spread. Furthermore, that'd also expand the EleQuiver crafting tree, which as of this moment is very lacking.

Rework the Astrum Deus fight on higher difficulties.
❔ Astrum Deus is a very.. polarizing fight on death mode, and that is mostly owing to its speed. On the one hand, yes, death mode fights are supposed to be hard; and Deus is hard, because it's so absurdly fast that without proper prep, it is impossible to go faster than it, and unlike Yharon, it's not something you can really dodge by being agile because it wasn't designed with the idea that you could never go faster than it. However, all that changes if you actually do go through the trouble of getting all the accessories you need to be faster than it, and if you make an asphalt skybridge. If you do that, suddenly, Deus ceases to be hard in any way and tips like a cow, even on death mode. This doesn't really seem like what a fight on death mode should be; it's either impossible, or so mind-numbingly easy it shouldn't be mentioned. I'm not sure how the devs would fix it, but I still think it needs a solution.

TLDR; Astrum Deus needs to be reworked because a late-game death mode fight shouldn't be either nigh impossible or a cakewalk by virtue of you building a really really long platform.

Increase boss despawn range so they don't despawn when you teleport 80 blocks away. It might just be skeletron but it's a problem.

Make Supreme Calamitas' Brimstone Monsters move at the same speed, and make them a bit slower.
A few updates ago, the Monsters were made to no longer clip into each other, meaning a monster would get bumped away from another, which causes them to take up more space. However, because they have varying speeds, that also means the faster one will keep bumping the small ones, causing them to move overall faster. Changing directions just became a lot harder, and now you're forced to move a lot faster. However, the bumping causes them to be a bit unpredictable, meaning they could be given a small bump at any time, which can cause them to swoop right into you suddenly. Their overall speed is a bit excessive, having almost the same speed as the player's falling speed. This means if you have to stop moving down to dodge a projectile, the moons are gonna catch up to you very easily. With all these things in mind, this is why the moons should have the same speed and be made slower.

Add wings for the God Slayer and Bloodflare armor. Silva and Tarragon have wings, and Silva, Godslayer, Bloodflare, and Tarragon are kinda a quartet within the mod, being components of the Auric set and being the primary post-moon lord armor sets. I would say that then you could turn those four wings into Auric Wings, but the Tracers already exist. Maybe just add them to the recipe?

Instead of having melee variants do more damage on throwing oriented weapons, it would make a lot more sense for rogue orientated, throwing weapons to do more damage if you benefit from rogue damage, personally. I feel like it's stupid that way because rogue weapons should be better for rogues.

Disable teleporters during boss fights in Rev+
Many a boss can be very easily cheesed with teleporters when setup right, and even having them is a huge boon against the boss. Just like how the Nurse received a specific nerf during boss fights, teleporters should receive the same treatment as they can serve the same, if not better, purpose.

I think melee/maybe ranger gets too much love, atleast during pre moonlord
The core of calamity can craft around 19 items, only two of them are mage, the rest are either rogue, melee or ranger.
The same applies to life alloy.
Alternatively the galatic signulary can craft ~27 items, 3 of which are mage weapons.
Why is this the case? I understand summoner where it's just either a moving target or a sentry where the only difference between better weapons is there sprite/damage output
but mage has so much potential too be way more, and i'm not a fan of these ingredients specifically used too craft tons and tons of melee weapons.
Maybe to differentiate from mage and ranger, diversifying the weapons even more would be cool too

Simplify how stealth generation bonuses work
A lot of the items that boost stealth generation have separate bonuses for stealth generation while moving and standing still (dark gods sheath only boosts mobile stealth generation, penumbra potions only boost stationary stealth generation at night). It would be far simpler if stealth generation was universal, and just granted a multiplicative buff by standing still (ie: "Stealth generates 50% faster while not moving").

Lets add variants to the Broken Hero Sword for every other class (Broken Hero Wand, Broken Hero Bow, etc.).
This means that everyone who isn't melee won't just avoid Mothrons other than when they need Darksun Fragments.
Things like the Terra Ray for mages can get the Broken Hero Wand added to their recipe, or have it be an entirely new item.
We just need more reaffirming that melee isn't the only way a 'Hero' can be one.

Add a more efficient way of farming Skeletron

Currently, your best bet for farming Skeletron for the Clothier's Wrath is to farm for a Clothier Voodoo Doll, then repeatedly kill your Clothier. This is slow, because not only do you need to get the doll, Skeletron only spawns at night, but the Clothier only moves in at day, meaning without Cosmolight (which you don't have at Skeletron-tier), you need to wait an entire day in between attempts. I suggest a way of spawning Skeletron that doesn't involve killing the Clothier, because currently Clothier's Wrath is one of the most time-consuming rare variants to get not because of the boss's difficulty, but just because of how tedious it is to spawn him, with only the Eye of Magnus being comparable.

Suggestion: change the name and crafting materials for elemental quiver. The name Quiver is misleading because it provides boosts to all ranger subclasses, not just bow users. Also, to this end, the crafting recipe should change to include an accessory from each subclass, not just a bow accessory, so that bonuses are provided equally across all subclasses and not just bows.

Buff the items recieved from Shrines
Shrines' items are some of the most difficult items to obtain in the mod. There are, in my opinion, 2(possibly 3) items recieved from Shrines not in need of a buff, one being the Fungal Symbiote and the other being the Onyx Excavator Key. Perhaps Murasama could be considered usable, but by the time you've beaten Yharon phase 2 you have better options that are much safer. Trinket of Chi is not worth the amount of time needed to stay still almost at any time in a run, Tundra Leash is outclassed by almost every single HM+ mount and a few PreHM ones, the Effigies can't cover a whole arena and give negligible effects lategame, Unstable Prism deals an absolute maximum of 45%bonus damage on single targets with large hitboxes (which is very bad lategame) and the Gladiator's Locket's damage always falls behind other accessories of a similar type. 300 base damage after DoG is borderline useless. Luxor's Gift might be fine the way it is, due to its ability to give short ranged items longer range, but I believe that some of the rarest items in the mod should actually be more powerful than their tier, and should all become better as the player progresses, much like the Community. I believe that the Shrine items should be a wonderful find, especially for new players, as it's really cool to find a small underground structure, but sucks to be disappointed when you find out the item is just... bad.

'Live bait' for drawing in/distracting Abyss creatures.
❔ This item would be added for the purpose of expanding the abyss's 'enemy detection' mechanics for a more practical purpose. The Anechoic coating lets you sneak by enemies by making yourself less detectable, but this would give the enemies something else to focus on instead. Such an item would have plenty of purposes; slipping into the lower layers 'before you should', farming, potentially escaping from the mini-bosses down there.. In addition, it'd give the more exotic Ocean fish more of a purpose; you could have Trout, for instance, craft more of it per recipe.

Give Rev+ Wall of Flesh new attacks.
Currently, this boss doesn't get anything new besides a new type of laser. I know making an arena for him is annoying, but his only threat is the lasers. The hungries and leeches are killed too quickly to be relevant, and only exist as a meat shield. The eyes could use a different attack, like a spread of demon scythes for example, so it ends up with one eye shooting lasers while the other uses this new attack, and would alternate, while the mouth gains a new attack, like a cursed flamethrower that goes straight, forcing the player to jump if necessary. Really, anything new works.

Buff Yharim's crystal or nerf Void vortex
You are 2.5x more likely to get a void vortex than a yharim's crystal from Yharon. Void vortex is about 2x better though, in mu opinion.
Void vortex removes the need to aim, does insane damage to multiple enemies and to just one. It completely destroys bosses. Even Yharon doesn't have time to attack if you just hold down left click. He switches in and out of forms too quick for him to do anything. Yharim's crystal can't even come close to this kind of damage.
Yharim's crystal is underwhelming compared to Void vortex, so I think one (or both really) need to change.

edit: Same stuff holds true for Scal. Void Vortex pretty much removes the fight portions. Yharim's crystal is a lot slower.

❔ If you want to fight the Old Duke, you either need to catch this thing, or face it at the end of a very tough event, when you are not at your best. But how exactly are you supposed to catch this thing? You can't even tell when it spawns because it's not a 'rare mob' unlike the Truffle Worm, and given you have about a dozen things that want to kill you, even if you try to look for it, you're probably not going to be able to find it.

Fix the worm banners in death mode.
Currently when you defeat a Digger, Devourer. World Feeder, or Dune Splicer in death mode, individual segments count as 1 enemy, so defeating the whole worm counts as defeating X amount of worms when the worm has X amount of segments. This can lead to an insane amount of banners. especially when in a sandstorm with increased dune splicer spawns.

Either make the Cinder Blossom's projectile unaffected by gravity, or allow it to shoot with its projectiles' arc in mind.

❔
This thing tends to get a bit funky given that its projectile is affected by gravity, as it seems to have the misguided idea in mind that its projectile, in fact, travels in a straight line. As a result, the Cinder Blossom has a hard time hitting just about anything that qualifies as a normal enemy. Making one of the aforementioned changes would allow the summon to be more effective at what it does; summon competency is everything when you're playing as the class that uses those summons.

Add more to the Pre-Hardmode Goblin Army.

First of all, Lets go over the only 3 things that you get from the goblin army in pre hardmode. Warblade, A terrible weapon immediately outclassed by almost every melee weapon at that point the game. Second, We have the Plasma rod. Which isnt an awful weapon but it still can be pretty much outranked by most of the magic weapons in that point of the game. The only good thing that comes from the event is Goblin Tinkerer. A very important npc. But.. Thats it? A vanilla npc that has extended use through mods? I think that there is alot more potential here that is wasted. And yeah, You could say to wait untill hardmode. But even then there are only 2 extra items being added here. I think the goblin army should be given more items and heck even more enemies to make this event the best it can be.

Rework Fabstaff

There are currently 2 problems I find with this weapon, with the former being more significant:

The weapon induces way too much lag. This weapon is so laggy to the extent that it is unsable: 1 frame per 5 seconds even just from the leftover projectiles when a worm or multiple enemies appear at the same time; it basically makes your game freeze when used properly. I had a consistent 60 fps using pretty much all other weapons, only this weapon had the problem, even if all quality settings are either off or low. Since changing direct stats of the weapon will not help reduce its lag, I think reworking it is the only way to fix that.
This weapon is way too overpowered. This weapon works on pretty much any type of boss you can name: Fat, Agile, or Worm. An example of a comparison between fabstaff and normal dev tier weapons in action: Normal dev tier weapons take 15s on average to kill queen bee, the first boss (in boss rush), while fabstaff takes only 4 seconds; no other weapon is anywhere near its tier. And of course, it melts every single boss in boss rush way faster than any other weapon if there was no lag.

A rework which both reduce/remove its lag and makes it much less powerful will help make it more usable and less busted at the same time.

Add requirements to be able to craft certain lore-based items

Some lore-relevant items in Calamity are recreated by the Player. Examples of this are the Auric Tesla Armour (Made by Draedon for Yharim), the Exoblade (Made by Draedon for Draedon), and Statis' Void Sash (Gifted to Statis, it is apparently blessed).

It seems strange how the Player was suddenly granted knowledge of how to craft these items, especially when it originally took a master engineer like Draedon to design some of them in the first place, and we're able to practically slam four armour sets together and make an exact replica of his work, albeit you do have to be at Draedon's Forge.

I think a cool change of pace from being able to craft right away, would be to have to go and learn the recipes somehow. Maybe you would have to find Draedon's notes and translate them, or maybe channel some of Calamitas' power? It apparently is possible to lock recipes behind more than just location and materials, so this should be possible code-wise.

To indicate to the player that they need to learn these recipes, there could be hints from the Guide, or chat messages after bosses to guide them the right way.

The problem with this upgrade is that it doesnt feel like a real upgrade to statis ninja belt. It feels like the same item, with extra visual effects. The homing scythes, which while not bad in terms of damage, dont really feel like they fit the theme of a ninja acccessory in my opinion (and incidentally, also create a great deal of noise). I think it would be cool if the upgrade either further boosted agility (maybe bonus fall speed?), allowed you a deliberate dodge like counter scarf, or provided some kind of glass cannon effect that boosts your damage at the expense of survivability. I think something like this would much better fit the final upgrade of master ninja gear.

Redesign the Evil Island

This new island would be a lot less barren; it'd have the grass, trees and stone of its biome making up the ground part. The cloud part would be made entirely of Rain Clouds.

The house would also be overhauled, being made of a mix of the wood blocks/furniture and the stone brick of its biome. There would be a loot chest (the evil's wood chest?) in the middle of the room containing early-game loot and the evil's shrine item.
Below this main room would be a hidden basement/cave, containing several Shadow Orbs/Crimson Hearts and a second loot chest (the evil's Biome Chest) containing post-Plantera loot (which could include that biome's Solution or Holy Water equivalent among other things) and that biome's Chest weapon.

❔ : This covers several cases of unobtainable items in either world type, providing access to both evils' Shrine items, easy access to both types of wood, and the loot tables of both Shadow Orbs and Crimson Hearts. This last fact also makes it easier to summon that biome's first boss. The change in materials also makes it easier to spread the biome to desired locations by providing more of the blocks required to do so.
The use of Rain Clouds is mainly meant to just be a nice touch, but being able to get more of those may be considered valuable to builders.

Make Yharon drop an alternative version of the terminus

why?
the terminus' tooltip states "Sealed away in the abyss, far from those that would seek to misuse it" which really doesn't fit when dropped from yharon, as that specific terminus isn't locked away in the abyss, while it is a failsafe it could still be confusing and irritating to some players

suggestion on a fix: make an item that will function similarly to terminus (spawns the boss-rush) but is called something along the line of "Forged Terminus" or other names that will hint at the fact that it isnt the original terminus locked away in the abyss, and the tooltip could mention it was forged by Draedon for yharim, which yharim entrusted to yharon.

Suggestion to change 'daemon's flame'. I have been on a ranger class playthrough and recently defeated polterghast. anticipating what loot could be picked up by polterghast for a ranger class i was excited to try out the new bow 'daemons flame'. it was a complete hype killer as it had a similar shooting speed (with buffs) to a hardmode bow. it only summons the daemon flame with a barrage of 2-3 normal arrows. I think it would be better if the bow used normal wooden arrows and alter them to the blue projectiles that polterghast unleashes during the boss fight. The blue projectiles would also slightly home into enemies along with the present 'daemon flame'. this would not only count as a buff but it will be pleasing to the player to see that polterghast drops an epic bow that resembles his attack patterns EX: Bee's knees, Prism, plaguebringer weapons etc.

Tooltip sections about Death Mode-exclusive features should only show up during Death Mode.
(If executed, the words "In Death Mode" could then be removed from them due to redundancy, but maybe have some other indication that it's a mode-specific feature like a different text color.)

Death Mode is only one of the four difficulties, and it is the hardest and least accessible one. Death-exclusive info does not need to be viewable by every player, because it will most likely never be useful to them, only serving to add unneeded clutter to the tooltips. It would be better to have that info only show up for the players that need to know it.

The services the Bandit provides isn't very good as well: The goodies they sell are almost always overshadowed by something else better that you can craft yourself. What's even worse is that the weapons they sell are exclusive to Rogue, so they are straight up useless when you are using a different class. The only truly useful thing they have is the refund ability.

Again, compare the Bandit to the three other NPCs. Amidias gives hints to the player about progression and sells some pre hm stuff that are actually good. Same with Permafrost and Cirrus; one sells good early HM items and the other provides some helpful beverages. The Bandit? Kinda mediocre due to the reasons already stated above.

Make the Bouncing Eyeball more common. It's a very early game weapon and quickly is replaced even if you do find it, but it's drop chance is so low it's highly unlikely you'd ever be able to get one to use at the stage of the game where it would still be useful.

Rename the consumable caustic tear into the caustic droplet. Why? Both of the caustic tears (consumable and nonconsumable) are named the same, and can get annoying to remember which is which. It is also an item that came from rain drops in the sulpherous seas, so it makes sense.

Make aero slimes spawn in space around floating island altitude, instead of underground.
It would much better fit the theme of the ore, add some new variety to ore slimes, and be an all around cool change. It would also be convenient, as you need to collect clouds/sunplate/feathers for aerialite items as well, meaning it would grant players a bit more ore while collecting those items.

Suggestion: hardmode ore slimes should spawn in the biomes that their ores spawn in. It is a little bit strange to have perennial slimes spawning in the jungle, where it is extremely unlikely for there to be any ore generated, or bloom slimes spawning in the caverns away from actual uelibloom ore, where again there is almost no chance for their to be uelibloom there. It would be a little bit more continuous if you still had to go to the correct biome to get the ore you are looking for, regardless if it was from the slime or the ore itself.

Rework the Brimstone Elementals brimstone ray in Rev+
Whenever she uses her brimstone ray, she is extremely vulnerable, this is especially noticeable in death mode where she using the ray almost immediately upon summoning. It takes the challenge out of the fight because you usually kill her before she even has a chance to get to her bullet hell phase. Maybe you have her cocoon herself like she does in Phase 3, that way she actually has a chance to send projectiles at the player.

**Living Loom Recipe**

Statement: As of right now, there is no way to craft a Living Loom. In the wiki, it says that some items were added to help reduce grinding or help away with dumb world generation. You should make a recipe for a living loom, with a similar recipe to regular looms, though maybe requiring the Guide to Plant Fiber Cordage (to give it a better use) and vine-rope.

Reason: Some worlds don't generate with living trees, and even less generate with living trees that go underground. Living Looms make unique, custom items for the Living Tree style of building items. It could help out builders who don't want to constantly regenerate and create new worlds.

**Add an item that allows you to fight all 3 Sentinels of the Devourer at the same time.**

The idea behind this suggestion is to create another "challenge" item, similar to Draedon's Remote.
It would be interesting to see how all 3 of the bosses' attacks overlap, because it's practically impossible to do so normally, considering how both Storm Weaver and Signus's summon locations are on opposite sides of the map. The enrage mechanic wouldn't be a problem because you just have to turn them off like in the boss rush. The item could be called something along the lines of Cosmic Revive, considering that you already killed them in-game. This challenge could be available after beating Phase 1 Yharon, but the balancing would need to be tested.

**Rename the Mana Overloader to Mana Polarizer or a similar name**

When i hear the words mana overloader i imagine the item either let you throw all your mana in a single burst or for it to function like a mana battery that lets you have more mana than max for a short period of time, it does neither, it acts more like a polarizer for your mana and hp gain
I believe polarizer is a more appropiate term since the item makes having high mana a slow death and having low mana gives flat out life steal, so theyre esentially opposite poles

**Make some changes to the Yharon fight to make it less frustrating, more consistent, and a better fit for the current final boss title.**

Yharon is an enigma. One of the most polarizing fights of an average player's playthrough, either this fight is relatively harmless or an absolute pain. I, for one, believe a review of Yharon's fight is in order. The fight is beginning to show some age. It overall lacks polish, and with how frustrating he can be sometimes, it's hard to enjoy the late game of Calamity. This suggestion is intended to spark a discussion of Yharon's fight, and to hopefully improve the fight to make it more interesting and dynamic.

Rather than ask that specific parts of the fight be changed, I have collected a list of troublesome attacks and abilities that Yharon currently has, in this document. It's more for the developers than anyone else, but if you are on the fence to vote I invite you to read. The hope is that the developers will gain important feedback that they can use to improve the Yharon fight for the better.

**Please make it so meteors don’t spawn on floating islands, living trees, or planetoids**

In the last two runs I’ve done, my meteor has smashed into planetoids or living trees. This is incredibly difficult to access at the point of the game you’d need meteor armor, barely just after defeating EoC. Gravitation potions are not easily accessible, and harpies are a hard enemy to take down.

Tldr, having meteor spawns on inaccessible or tiny parts of land could really screw you over, and it’s incredibly frustrating to deal with. (Esp if something lands on a planetoid in death mode)

Using the MOAB feels clunky and strange. you need to spam space 3 times before you gain speed. this seems like a waste of potential. If they 3 jumps were in at the end of the sequence it can provide more skill expression for how you use your last 3 jumps of flight. with this change the MOAB can provide much more options in the air. You can drop, hold space to glide or use one of your 3 jumps. this can allow skilled users to time there jumps to dodge incoming attacks.

**Add Meteorite ore and Meteorite Bars to the Astral Crate item pool**

❓
Reason: Meteorite (Biome) and the Astral Infection are pretty similar to each other in one way or another, Meteorite fits the whole theme of the astral infection, it derives from the depths of space. And both of them have their own biomes, crash sites and the such. Certain Post-Astrum Deus items that require Astral bars ALSO require meteorite Bars as part of their recipe... I can't tell you the amount of times i ran out of Meteorite when i tried to craft Astral Armor or the Ethereal Core, its pretty aggravating to look for a Meteorite crash site in order to acquire the material... Maybe it can be added to the Astral Crate item pool Post or pre-Deus, or maybe Post Wof? This will make it easier to acquire Meteorite in Bulk, or in substantial quantity...

TL;DR: It does not make sense for Meteorite to be missing from the Astral Crate item pool, i always wondered why it was this way during my PTs. This change will make Astral crates even more convenient and improve the Meteorite economy.

**Suggestion: give blood orbs the alchemy table buff.**

Currently the blood orbs do not get the alchemy table reduced usage by 33%. This is very strange in my opinion, since they are potion ingredients like everything else.
Seeing as they are a bit more difficult to come by until Hardmode, at which point you have the blood relic or multi-lure rods for fishing xerocodiles (blood orb fish), and also considering how expensive they are to be used in potions anyways (10 for vanilla, 20-50 for calamity, which takes quite some time to farm for) they should be conserved the same way as any other potion ingredient.

**Add literally anything to make the Planetoids more interesting.**

The Planetoids essentially add nothing to the game other than a means to explore the space layer by foot. They aren’t unique, they don’t have any unique findings, and they don’t pique the player’s interest for more than a couple of seconds. The concept of the Planetoids offers a lot of potential for unique ores, enemies, and loot, but they only serve to be miniature biome circles. I suggest that Planetoids are given a bit more love. Treat them like you would treat any other biome. Give them something that makes them worth the effort of exploring.

**Add increase to maximum sentry slots to post Moon Lord Summoner-oriented armor sets. (Omega Blue Set included)**

Reason: Basically, with the addition of new Sentries to post Moon Lord tier, I think sentries also deserve chances to shine at most times but there are no accessories aside from the OOA accessories, which only boost sentry slots but as you progress, most people choose to prefer stronger accessories with more use other than just Minion damage and +1 max sentry.
So, I suggest to add increased sentry slot(s) to all post Moon Lord armor with Summoner bonuses. Here is my recommendations of how much slots needed for each armor:
+1 slot: Stardust, Tarragon, Bloodflare, Omega Blue
+2 slots: Godslayer, Fearmonger, Silva
+3 slots: Auric Tesla
+4 slots: Demonshade

With this QoL addition to these Armors, Summoners can use their Sentries more efficiently as the minions aren't efficient enough to deal that much DPS in my opinion at some fights.

**Remove the bonuses provided by hiding the HotE elementals, and reduce the elementals' visual pollution**

Right now, HotE is one of the best accessories in the game solely because of the incredible stat boosts it provides all around. It remains one of the most powerful accessories in the game even post Scal with the elementals hidden. It is pretty much a better version of The Absorber with elementals hidden, and rivals the power of even The Sponge which is post DoG. It should be more focused on its most unique aspect: the elemental summons.

The elementals are often skipped because of the massive slew of stats you get by turning them off, and because classes other than summoner can't make very good use of the elementals. However, even for summoners the opportunity cost of not disabling the elementals is quite high, with all the stats you miss out on. Additionally, the elementals create a huge amount of visual pollution that makes it harder to dodge attacks from bosses, which makes many players dislike them.

So to make the elementals (which should imo be much more important to the accessory) better, I would remove the stat bonuses granted by disabling them, and also look into ways to reduce their visual pollution. For instance, reducing the size of their sprites, or reducing their opacity. I think the sand tornadoes especially could do to clog up the screen less and might work a lot better with reduced opacity. The cloud elemental also has a tendancy to block the actual boss's hitbox so you cant see them clearly, so maybe reducing her opacity while charging.

Add 'Grab-Bag' fishes for each Lunar Fragment.

❔ Lunar Fragments are a material that you'll need a surprising amount of throughout the game, however, the only way to get them is via farming events/bosses. This is odd, given that similar materials (souls of light, night, essences, etc) can be caught through fishing. So, it would be consistent and helpful to add fish that give you lunar fragments. They could be caught in the sky after triggering the Lunar Events at least once at similar rates to the Fish of Light/Night, and provide similar amounts of their respective fragment.

Make Building Easier - Add Block Placement Speed-up Accessory

Don't we all love an arena? And we can mine at ludicrous speeds. But unless you use cheat sheet to plop down huge structures, actually building something is severely hampered by your block placing speed. There's very little (One measly accessory and one potion) to mitigate that in the base game and to my knowledge, Calamity adds so far nothing that makes block placement faster. An accessory (or an entire line thereof) that boosts placement speed dramatically would be great not just for arena building but everything else building related as well.

The current recipe is a little difficult to complete until Post-Golem (With Spread Rod being unlocked and Sunlight being dropped by Golem itself) which is fine, but then there's the price of 5 Crystal Shards for 1 pot. Crystal Shards are not hard to get, but you need some time to get a decent amount for crafting Revivify Pots and even so you'll see yourself needing to get some more very soon because Revivify only lasts 30 seconds, so overall it seems that the time needed to get a considerable amount of these pots is unbalanced with the time they'll actually last

**Make it so the color your hearts and mana stars change to upon using permanent upgrades like Blood Orange and Comet Shard depends on which upgrade you use instead of how many you've consumed already.** (Resuggestion)

With basically everything pertaining to your character being fully customizable, from your hairstyle to the color you want your Slime Mount to be, I think that being able to determine which color your hearts/mana stars will have after consuming all permanent upgrades (instead of them always being light blue/purple-ish silver, respectively), would be a fitting addition.

Furthermore, the colors your hearts can change to appear to be linked to the colors of the fruits (Blood orange turns your hearts orange, Elderberry, a blue fruit, turns your hearts blue etc.), but then, if you decide to skip or you forget to consume one of the fruits, the colors are mismatched (e.g. Elderberry will turn your hearts green if you skipped the Miracle Fruit), which doesn't make sense.

Lastly, me wanting to choose a color for my hearts or mana stars should not result in me having to miss out on HP or Mana upgrades in the end, as I may have to refrain from using some of them, depending on the color I want.

**Make changes to Skeletron Prime to reduce frustration**

Skeletron can feel very erratic and frustrating at times, and I believe there are two main causes for this: the inconsistency of his arms' speeds, and his probe-spawning move.
His arms move at different speeds, particularly the cannon arm, but all can lag behind offscreen, then zip back towards the head at very high speeds, to the point where reacting to them is nigh impossible. I suggest that his arms cannot go a certain distance away from his head, to ensure that they don't get stuck offscreen then slingshot back on.
His probe-spawning move is annoying for two reasons, those being the probes themselves, and the circle he does during it. The probes are annoying simply because they are extra clutter, though I do not believe they're that big of an issue. The bigger issue is that it's incredibly hard to hit him while he's spawning them, and the frequency at which he does the move. I suggest that he does the move far less, in order to lengthen the windows where you can reasonably hit him.

For the amount of lightning there is, the rain is much too common, and happens extremely often when you first start off. This makes lightning a huge pain in the beginning. Even after lightning isn't really a threat to the player anymore, the amount of lightning is still incredibly annoying. It's not realistic by any means, and it's honestly just irritating. I like the weather effects, I like the lightning idea. I love playing death mode, and I think the idea of lightning is great! I just think that the lightning needs a little bit of tuning in order for it to be more fair for early game, more fun to play, and add a more realistic kinda feel, in that it has real events, but like its still Terraria and anything can happen.

**Rework or buff Golem's lore item in some way**

Reason: Golem's lore item may be the most useless of them all, giving 10 defense to the player if they stand still while not attacking. Nobody is going to actually stand still and not attack during a boss fight, event, or in any other situation. The player is trying to avoid getting hit, and giving the player slightly increased defense when they leave themselves wide open is pretty pointless, so pointless it's not really even worth the inventory slot. Along with this, the defense increase is 10, which isn't that good or noticeable for being post-Golem tier. The bonus Golem's lore item gives seems really useless, especially when put in comparison to other boss lore item bonuses, and I think it should be changed to be at least worth the inventory slot you use up.

The bloodworm only spawning during acid rain basically nullifies what it was meant for because it's supposed to be an easy alternative too refight the boss. Like how the rune of kos or cosmic worm are not consumable, you can refight those bosses after you die. The circumstances in which the bloodworm spawn completely defeat this kind of approach on fighting bosses, I don't think it's fair to make players especially ones with less skill spend a long time doing an event only too fight old duke at half health and trying too despawn enemies, sure you can use nurse BEFORE the fights begins but if you still die you cannot retry that easily compared to DOG and his sentinels

Basically, make it so that killing the cultist does not set the celestial invasion in progress after you killed the moonlord. Either de-couple natural spawns or eidolon tablet spawned LCs from the invasion, either works.
Having to go through the invasion every time makes farming this guy for trophy / mask / eidolon staff / thorn blossom a pure chore of tediousness
By removing the trigger for the invasion after the moonlord kill you can farm him effectively without being bogged down by the other stuff.

**Rework Colossal Squids to be more fun to fight against and let them also spawn in layer 4.**

❔
These things are far and away the most aggravating Abyss miniboss to fight. They spawn exclusively in the layer that has multiple debilitating ailments to the player and has blocks in the way of everything, they have nigh-invisible splitting(?) projectiles, they have a funny instagib latch attack that, if it somehow doesn't instagib you, obstructs your vision and prevent you from properly existing until you die, and they overall drop a grand total of one (1) thing post-Polterghast for a class that has arguably the worst time in confined spaces such as those you're supposed to fight the Squid in. Reworking this enemy to be less of a total frustration to fight against and allowing it to spawn in layer 4 would not only improve the quality of The Summoner Experience™️ and the post-Polterghast experience in general, but it would also bring the Squid in line with the other Abyss minibosses that already spawn in both layers.

**Reduce the spawn rates of the Reaper Shark, Colossal Squid, and the Eidolon Wyrm in the 3rd layer of the Abyss**

I know that the 3rd layer isn't supposed to be explored until defeating the Moon Lord, but I feel like even when you have Moon lord equipment, they can still be quite difficult to defeat, and I believe they spawn way too often in the 3rd layer, even with a Zen Potion active. These Minibosses feel like they belong a lot more in the 4th layer where it's just open space, rather than the 3rd layer where there's hardly any room to move to defeat these things.

**Reduce Carnage's Base Damage to be lower than Bloody Edge**

Carnage has the same issue as vanilla terraria does with the Meowmere, where there is a sword that is a combination of many other swords and is harder to get and very satisfying to finally craft (Nights Edge/Terra Blade), but an enemy/boss just drops a 5x better version out of nowhere. The Carnage should be an alternative to the other two final pre-hm swords, not outrival them completely. It is extremely anti-climatic to craft this new crimson version of the Nights Edge, only to realize that there is a 10x better version that drops from a slime/zombie. The homing blood bolts are also very strong, so that will make up for the lower base damage.

**Craftable critters**

So critters are a pretty atmospheric thing in Terraria. Some of them have legitimate uses, sure, but for the most part, they're cosmetic. If they're so cosmetic then why the fuck can't I find a glowing snail for my zoo, I swear to god if I can't find one I'll-

ahem Let us craft critters. Taking a few souls of light and coaxing them together with a catalyst (along with some clay or mud) at a magic ball should let you mold a critter to life right before your very eyes. For instance; bunnies. I take a soul of light, some clay or mud, and an extra catalyst to determine what the creature will be; in this case, I was thinking cloud blocks (Soft, like rabbits, right?). Boom, bunny. Scorpions could be conjured with antlion mandibles, frogs with a bit of moonglow or jungle spores, birds using some feathers and dye, et cetera. The catalyst is not consumed during the recipe, only the requisite souls and mud. Golden critters cannot be crafted in this manner, due to them being sort of a rare collectible you'll have to invest time in if you wish to get all of them, and critters such as Piggy, the Bloodworm, or the Truffle Worm cannot be crafted either ~~for balance~~ due to their exceptional strength.

Now about butterflies. I don't know what do for these lads. The Enchanted Butterfly light pet relies on catching one of each breed of butterfly, and I don't want to trivialize obtaining it. I'm sure the developers would manage to balance things, whether or not that involves making butterflies uncraftable, or adding extra materials required for them to preserve difficulty. My suggestion would be to include the breed of butterfly you wish to craft in the recipe itself: One Monarch Butterfly along with one or more souls of light would make two Monarch Butterflies. This ensures you actually have to catch all of them at least once, removing the issue of a pathetically easy-to-craft Enchanted Butterfly.

**Make Hadal Stew/Bloodfin take priority over other healing potions in your inventory that heal less when using the quick heal hotkey**

Quick heal automatically uses the healing item that heals the most in your inventory, but seems to completely ignore these two in terms of which priority they belong to. They do work with it if you have no other healing items in your inventory, but just a mushroom in it will make you heal 15 HP instead of 240 HP when using the hotkey.

This could be due to those two giving the player an extra status effect apart from potion sickness (which would be understandable if that makes them stop classifying as pure "healing items", despite still working with the hotkey...?), but if it is possible, I don't really see the reason why it shouldn't be done.

**Yharon's Arena borders should be visible on the map**

This could be accomplished with an invisible entity right on the edge of were the tornadoes can touch, and having that entity appear on the map.
In Boss-checklist treasure bags appear on the map making them easier too find, the same thing should happen with Yharon's border tornadoes.

The reason for this is Fighting Yharon becomes really problematic because people with bad computers don't know where the tornadoes are exactly, for example, I run on a low resolution and that results in my game being really zoomed in. I cannot zoom out and am forced to use a boss-cursor mod to counter it, this really makes me struggle when understanding the tornadoes are located because if they appear on my screen, it doesn't take much for me to accidentally dash or just simply fly into them.
There are many people out there who play calamity and unfortunately run on a really low resolution. So this would help levitate the burden people have when fighting him, and make the playing ground more fair, as well as not making the fight too easy because players with better computers are more zoomed out due to a higher resolution

This would also prevent people from blaming there shitty computers for not being able to kill Yharon HyperFailure

**Nerf or remove the "% of weapon damage" accessories found in shrines**

In my opinion finding an item in early pre-hardmode by complete chance that you continue to use for the rest of the game takes away from the rewarding feeling of slowly improving your loadout over time and combining accessories together into better ones. Finding an item like Luxor's Gift effectively removes one of your accessory slots for a significant portion of the game and leads to overpowered item combinations, like the Luxor's gift projectile and Eldritch tome's quick cast time being able to kill deathmode wall of flesh in a few seconds. The Fungal Symbiote, Unstable Prism, and Luxor's gift also take away from the uniqueness of weapons, with the same projectile coming out of every single weapon you use for dozens of hours of gameplay.

Accessories shouldn't be good enough at the start of the game to keep for the rest of the game, they should be swapped out, combined and improved over time.

**Make plantera drop the bloom stone instead of plaguebringer goliath**

My reason for suggesting this is twofold. First, it seems much more logical for the giant flower to drop a "bloom stone" than a boss associated with a plague (which presumably causes death and decay). Secondly, plaguebringer goliath is further along in progression than any other boss that drops a HotE component, making her much more annoying to farm for a semi-rare drop once you get to the point of being able to craft HotE. Plantera would be much closer to the difficulty level of the other bosses that drop hote components.

**Allow Flippers to be crafted.**

Like many other vanilla accessories, the flippers are needed for late-game accessories like the Abyssal Diving Gear and Abyssal Diving Suit, which I have found to be almost essential in my playthroughs. However, the flippers are one of the only pre-hardmode accessories that cannot be crafted. If you can't find any in the existing ocean chests in your sea, it would come down to a grind to find another one underground. I think it would only make sense to include the flippers among the craftable pre-hardmode accessories.

**Recolor/resprite the elysian tracers sprite.**

Don't get me wrong, I love the sprite as is. But I think that it is a little bit discontinuous considering its materials.

Elysian wings, which are yellowy-orange colored, are required to craft the tracers, along with seraph tracers, cosmilite and phantoplasm. I get the purple/pink color scheme for the cosmilite and phantoplasm, but why is it that the elysian tracer wings bear no resemblance to the actual wings in the recipe? They're purple and blue, when its crafting requires completely different colored wings, and they bear no physical resemblance to the elysian wings at all.

Celestial tracers still use the Drew's wings colors for its wings, as well as the entire sprite. This is why i feel like the wings should be the same as how they were crafted -- i.e., yellowy-orange, and with the actual look of the elysian wings.

This is obviously nonessential to game progression, I just think that it's a little strange to use such different wings in a crafting recipe that doesn't utilize its sprite, or even colors, at all.

**Add a Don't about suggesting a weapon buff/nerf with only DPS tests on a dummy as proof**

Reason: It's much more reliable to show killtimes and DPS on bosses when proving a weapon needs a buff or nerf. Testing weapons for the purpose of balancing is usually done with standard on-tier equipment without Rage or Adrenaline, looking at killtimes mainly. Along with this, some weapons like Submarine Shocker will do massive DPS on dummies because it's made for stationary targets, or risk and reward close range weapons like Stellar Striker will do more DPS than other weapons at its tier. Weapons that are more reliable to hit like homing weapons are expected to do less DPS than close range weapons. Dummies don't operate under realistic circumstances and testers don't balance around them because testing weapons on bosses is much more reliable when it comes to balancing things.

**Buff Hydrothermic Summoning Armor**

Hydrothermic armor and Fathom Swarmer both give the same amount of minion slots, however, Fathom Swarmer gives more damage despite being a post-clone armor set versus a post-Golem set (59% vs 50%). This practically makes Fathom Swarmer, an armor set earlier in progression, better than Hydrothermic armor. On top of this, Fathom Swarmer still gives 7 more defense than Hydrothermic, with better damage.

While Hydrothermic does have the armor set head summon (the summon that floats above your head), I feel that being three to four bosses apart should at least show some raw damage difference between the two armor sets.

**Old duke confusion and Vortex AOE range indication**

I have been fighting against the Old Duke in DM for a while now and its a pretty fun boss. However there are two things that hold it back in my opinion. First, how the Sulphurous Sharkrons can inflict the Feral Bite debuff. The extra damage can come in handy but the problem here is confusion, at this point in the game there are little answers to confusion that are worth while. Confusion is impossible to predict and to account for while fighting the boss, it appears so suddenly and by the time you know what's going on, you dashed straight into the boss taking loads of damage and ruining an otherwise decent run. This makes the player choose to decide between a dice roll of rng that you don't get confusion or limit your character in someway to avoid a debuff that only has a 16.7% chance of happening. I wont mind a bit of rng but confusion is too punishing if you are unlucky. You can make it where the Feral Bite debuff isn't in the fight altogether, make the Elysian Aegis grants you the same immunities as the Ankh Shield, or remove confusion from the pool of debuffs you can get from Ferial Bite.

Second the Sulphurous Vortex's draw range/suck range (however you describe it) is a bit unclear and is a bit too large without any form of clarification. Maybe put a ring around the edges so you know if you are going to be affected by it or not with a bit of particles getting sucked into it for some added flair. Or you can just add in a bit of particles without the ring so you see a vague representation of what's going on. It can be a bit hard to tell if your wings are gonna be cut short especially when your above or below the vortex when a good bit of the vortex is off screen. Knowing your wing time and speed is important especially with a boss as aggressive of the Old Duke where avoiding his dashes is key.

**Reduce skeletron prime's head mobility**

When prime's arms are down, he takes a frustratingly long time to kill. This isnt due to him having a particularly huge HP pool, but rather due to how calamity makes him frequently become near invulnerable (good luck hitting him consistently during probe circles), and his massively boosted speed. His head has a very small hitbox compared to most other bosses proportional to his mobility, and on top of that calamity adds probes which block a lot of shots that could otherwise hit prime. He becomes exceptionally frustrating largely because of how inefficient it is to deal damage to him. Non-homing weapons struggle significantly to deal good damage to him. Prime can win almost by attrition because of how long he takes to kill without homing weaponry. He really needs to be addressed

**Make the Sunken Sea More Significant**

In the current state of the mod, the Sunken Sea doesn't do very much for the player. Based on the wiki, the only content in the Sunken Sea is an optional miniboss, enemies, Amidias, and a few useful drops for crafting. While the Sunken Sea has a decent amount of items, comparing it to the other biomes Calamity adds puts the Sunken Sea in a bad light. The Brimstone Crag has its own ore, a boss fight, its own set of loot, and continues to be useful post-Moonlord; the Sulphurous Sea has an event and multiple bosses, not to mention being connected to the Abyss, an area with incredibly high impact on the gameplay. Lastly, the Astral Infection has two bosses and a Meteorite-style ore. Based on the amount of content that these biomes offer, I believe there should be more available content in the Sunken Sea. There's a number of ways to interpret "more content", but I'm not gonna suggest anything that would require commitment, just the idea of making the Sunken Sea more impactful.

**Change use animations for the consmilamp and similar summon weapons.**

A lantern is usually held by the hand, not swung like a sword. I think the use animation would be better as the player holding out the weapon, not swinging it. This could be done for other similar weapons, just to avoid the goofy look of swinging a lantern around six times to summon a powerful minion.

**Replace or rework the Ice Tomb into something more notable.**

As it stands, the Ice Tomb is quite literally a giant block of ice in the middle of the snow biome that holds nothing to its name but some snow-themed loot. It should be changed to something more unique— this could be through giving it unique generation that isn’t just a pyramid, but made of ice, reworking it into something like Daedalus’ Lab, or giving it something else to make it feel like it’s not a giant snow biome shrine.

**Remove the Mechanical Boss summon recipes using Enchanted Metal, and either give the latter a new purpose or remove it entirely.**

(The Mechanical Boss summon item recipes that already exist can be made cheaper if it is absolutely necessary that the Mechs be easier to summon.)

❔
The Mechanical Bosses are notoriously annoying to fight in Calamity, but it's no secret that their summons aren't exactly difficult to farm out. With that in mind, there is no necessity to grant even more ways to obtain an already simple-to-obtain item trio when there are other more annoying summons that could stand to be made cheaper. ~~Plantera smells and you know it.~~
While I won't go into specifics about what other uses Enchanted Metal could be given, it does bear repeating that it needs to be either given some sort of other purpose or removed entirely in order to perhaps either give more content to the point you get it or simplify the material progression at that point a bit, depending on which route is taken with it.

**Add a conversion for Cursed Flames to Ichor and vice versa.**

They're both available at the same tier, and since Calamity already makes it possible to obtain many items from the opposite world evil with additions such as the items the Dryad sells and the Evil Island. It would allow players to have access to early Hardmode items like the Cursed Capper, which is necessary to craft Aeries, Dodu's Handcannon, and the Pride Hunter's Planar Ripper. It would also let players have access to the Golden Gun and all other ichor-based weaponry, but still at the appropriate tier. I think this change won't affect the game too much, since world evils in Hardmode don't affect your playthrough as much as they do in pre-Hardmode. It would be great to be able to choose the kind of experience you want for pre-Hardmode without having to limit your choices for equipment in Hardmode and post-Moon Lord.

**Have the unconsumable Profaned Core drop from the Guardians instead of being crafted**

The unconsumable Profaned Core is currently an immediate upgrade from the consumable counterpart and takes no effort to get, so what's the point of it existing in the first place? The Guardians dropping a consumable version feels like a trap for new players who didn't notice the "Material" tag on a boss summoning item, and the punishment for not noticing this small detail is extremely aggravating as needing a new core every single time you want to fight Providence is a nightmare. I see no reason why it wouldn't just drop from the Guardians, removing the gameplay bloat added by needing to farm to make the item what it should be in the first place.

Even in Normal Mode, the Gravity Globe is still made utterly irrelevant by potions that you can obtain eons before ever fighting ML, and quite frankly, of the two Expert drops ML has/had, it's the one that fits in moreso with the concept of Expert drops as a mechanic. Buffing the Gravity Globe with even just one or two of many potential augments (e.g. mid-air flip, increased fall/jump speed when gravity is flipped, Grav Normalizer Potion effect, etc.) and moving it back to Expert would make it a relevant drop --- this would also allow for the Moon Lord's lore item to be reworked to perhaps give an effect that doesn't require making more people see Gravity Globe at its worst.

**Reduce the amount of stardust required to craft fallen stars, make stars purchasable post-moon lord, or create a way for star cannons to easily replenish their ammo lategame**

Currently, the only way that star cannons are usable lategame is if you save up stars for the entire game or spend hours grinding in the astral biome. This is because these weapons have high fire rates, and you can only bring your ammo conservation up to a certain point. I'm using the norfleet right now, and three full stacks of stars barely lasts me through the acid rain event once. It took me fourty five minutes with zerg potions to grind out those stacks, only to have them wiped from a single event. Adding another way to easily get stars, or reducing the cost/grindiness of the existing method, would make star cannons much less frustrating to use throughout the game, especially given how many other recipes fallen stars/stardust are needed for.

**Bring back the feature of scal's abyssals breaking on contact with tiles**

During the time when this feature was removed, scal had also receieved reworked brothers and did not attack during this phase as she used to. However, with current patch scal, she now has faster and smarter moons, a more tightly packed bullet hell 5 that is less reliant on rng, and no way of abusing death mode rippers on her (as they have been brought back down to rev level). The method of using blocks and her arena to pop abyssals could have been seen as "cheesy" back then, but scal has so much more at her disposal now that once moons come out at bh4, she can start firing a chain of up to 5 or so abyssals, all of which will end up in the arena too. Moons are already her main for of area denial, abyssals when stacked with moons is just overload and there is very little counterplay. Bringing back breaking abyssals will not only allow for more strategy with how you maneuver her moons, but also isn't really even that cheesy in the first place. Barely any weapons at the tier are even able to pierce tiles, let alone do consistent damage through them, so bringing this back would bring back a fun facet of the fight that was lost during older rework patches.

**Give bullet-based guns something other than "shoot very fast" or "shoots not a bullet"**

Currently, there are almost no guns in base game or calamity that do something interesting with bullets themselves, certainly not compared to bows or magic. Almost every gun either replaces its projectiles with a specific type of projectile entirely, shoots very fast, or shoots something out in addition to its bullets that behaves very much like a bullet.

It would be nice to see guns that have effects similar to what some of the other classes/subclasses have - creating a hail of bullets from the sky like Daedalus Stormbow or Red Sun, causing projectiles to fly in from off-screen like the pumpking's sword line (I know hyperius bullets exist, but it's not the same as having a unique projectile to the weapon home in from offscreen), etc.

This isn't really an issue of balance, but currently bullet guns are just plain boring and unsatisfying to use for a massive portion of the game, and the few that are interesting don't let you use all the cool bullets that you collect and craft throughout progression. There's just a massive amount of potential that could be explored there that just isn't.

**Change Meld Bars.**

I have a few complaints about how Meld Bars work, so here goes.

Meld blobs drop from the nebula pillar. Why? If they're supposed to be the 5th lunar component (for rogue), then they shouldn't be attached to another pillar. I believe they used to drop from LC, which in my opinion was a much better system since LC is neutral in terms of class, rather than the mage pillar.
Why do you have to craft the meld blobs into bars before you can use them? If they're supposed to be the rogue lunar component, then they should function similarly to how the other fragments do, right? I.E. you use them as is, without a bar to craft with.
Why can you make non-rogue items with meld bars? It's supposed to be the rogue armor set right? If we truly want these weapons to be in the game, I don't understand why they can't be made with fragments from their actual corresponding pillars.

**Add an emote named `:wedragud:`**

Reason for this suggestion: When you want to state your appreciation for something, you usually have three options: :Hyperfailure: , :hellyes:/:pogfish: or :hahayes:. :Hyperfailure: is mostly fitting when you show that you like something ironically, :hellyes: is more used when something is really cool, :pogfish: applies to the same conditions as :hellyes: but is only available for people with Nitro, and :hahayes: is most suited for situations where you're saying you like something nice. This is a good variation of emotes to have, but i feel that the list of ways to show you like something is incomplete.
It is for this reason that i am suggesting to add :wedragud: to complete the "i enjoy" emote list, serving as a Calamity-themed way to show that you think something is cool, and while it may not be the best, it's good enough. It can also serve as a way to show that while you may not seem like you're doing good at the moment, you are, in fact, gud.
If no emote slots happen to be open and this suggestion is accepted, i am proposing to replace :wedragud: with :brimsus:, as its purpose is already essentially served by :hyperethanjudge:, and it has only been used 253 times throughout the history of the server. Compare this to an emote such as :feelsgreat:, which is also not used immensely frequently, but has been used a total of 1,827 times throughout the server's history.

Throughout many of my runs, I find Earth Elemental doing way too much damage for when you get into hardmode. I understand that this mod is meant to be difficult, however going to mine or even farm in the Cavern and having to teleport back or die due to an Earth Elemental that's extremely difficult to kill is not a good idea for difficulty, instead just tedious and annoying above all else. The nature his AI uses to attack makes him extremely difficult to avoid, especially in a rugged area or else.

I suggest nerfing either his health/damage by half total, and then making him scale both those stats as you defeat bosses. There's nothing wrong with having strong enemies to disrupt your errands, however, you should have a fighting chance at the very least.

On top of this potential solution to the lack of a counterpart to the Golden Gun, the Cursed Capper isn't really that memorable at the moment, as other weapons outshine it in both uniqueness and performance. Making it into a classless wep would give it renewed popularity and usefulness particularly amongst summoners for being a way to actually let summoners do things aside from relaxing as their summons eat everything.

**Add a config to make enemies spawned by bosses killed in boss rush not count towards the total kills in the world**

Many extra enemies spawn (especially from king slime) and they add up to give you more banners. When grinding boss rush a lot of your inventory space just gets taken up by banners, heres an image of some of the banners in my inv. Getting rid of them wont help bc more slimes will continue to get killed and the banners will appear again

are we gonna get a Yharim vanity set?
Like for the fan made sprite, it could be Called “Jungle Tyrant Poser” or something a long those lines. The reason for this is because i doubt we will be seeing Yharim for a long time in game so a vanity armor could reference him until them. It could also have tool tips on the armor for some more backstory or foreshadowing

**Make The Photoviscerator Not Consume Ammo**

The photovis takes gel, like all flamethrowers. However, it already has a 90% chance to not consume ammo, and by the point in the game that you get it, you probably have an absurd amount of gel anyway. Having it require any at all is basically a means to an end, that just requires you to fill up an ammo slot with a stack and never worry about it again. Since there aren't different types of gel, there's no nuance to this decision, it's just a mild inconvenience. You might as well just make it not consume any ammo, which would also give it more of a place in other loadouts, as now, rangers have a reason to use it while still keeping 4 ammo slots, and even other classes can have it as a sort of sidearm for crowd control or debuff-setting. It would make the photovis stronger, but only slightly, and really it would just make it more convenient and versatile.

**Remove the holy flames immunity from Asgard's Valor.**

It doesn't make sense to me that despite no accessory giving immunity to holy flames in the crafting recipe, Asgard's Valor does provide immunity to it, and since you can make this as soon as you kill plantera, it feels like this immunity is way early for the stage at which it shows up most prominently -- Providence and the Profaned Guardians. With immunity to HF, you basically negate the most important part of the Providence/Guardians fight, and it happens so early on.

A possible fix for this is that either HF immunity gets removed from Asgard's Valor entirely, or that AV gets HF resistance instead (lessening DoT from HF), while only elysian/asgardian aegis get full immunity properties, meaning you have to actually kill the boss that inflicts the debuff to get immunity to it. These are just suggestions, but either way the HF immunity is completely out of place for its tier.

**Change the Heart of the Elements to focus more on the elementals as opposed the raw stats.**

Currently the HoTE is crazy overpowered for the stage in the game it can be crafted. Mostly due to adding a ton of buffs to the player that makes them much harder to kill. I think the item should be reworked to be focused more on the elementals as opposed to the stats to shift it's usefulness more as an extra offensive tool instead of both that and a crazy good defensive option.

Personally I would buff the Brimstone and Cloud elementals to both act in the same way. Dashing into targets while also shooting at them. The Brimstone elementals attacks inflict Brimstone flames, so the Cloud Elementals attacks can inflict Electrified. Beyond that the Sand Elemental should throw out tornadoes with increased size, frequency, and the ability to go through blocks. The Rare Sand Elemental should heal the player directly, rather than tossing up healing blobs no one can actually ever use. The water elemental should shoot homing shots that can also go through blocks.

In exchange for the buffs to the elementals the HoTE should provide no stat bonuses to the player except for the ability to grow plants on dirt.

There is nothing to do anymore. Only grinding. Yes, you can build, but it's possible on any point of progression. Player is too powerful. One enemies that are capable of fight with you is Yharon and SCal. Other enemies are simply too weak.

Please, add something remarkable to this stage. Make feeling, than presence of DoG matters. With moons being resource farms, it feels like DoG and his friends are not really important to this world, it will be same regardless of them being alive or not.

**Significantly tone down death mode blood moons**

Buffing them is reasonable for death mode, but death mode blood moons are SO powerful that the player is essentially forced to hole up in their house and bar all the doors with the sheer number of spawns and wait the event out. Its no longer a "difficulty boost" so much as a forced night of waiting. Especially given that they can occur so early in a playthrough and without prior warning, the player can also be caught out in positions unfavorable to them and made to die over and over with no possible method of counterplay until the night is over.
Death mode should make things harder, but death mode blood moons are literally unmanageable until the player is WELL into pre hardmode or hardmode outside of simply hiding away in a blocked off area and waiting it out.

**Make the role of Amidias as a mod guide more clear in the early stages of the mod**

Currently, it is very easy for new players (especially on blind playthroughs) to completely miss the sunken sea "story arc", and never encounter the desert scourge or rescue Amidias. Even then, it is not always clear that he functions as a guide in this mod. A simple fix for this would be adding a couple of quotes to the Guide NPC that point you towards the desert scourge, and then the sunken sea. Once Amidias has been rescued, the guide could then mention that "you should go talk to that merfolk, he seems to know a great deal about the enemies you'll face." Or something along those lines.

My first time playing through calamity I was very confused about what to do, and had to rely on external sources (such as the wiki) to find the vast majority of the mod's content. Everyone I've played calamity with has been equally unclear on the mod's intended progression. Having some clear direction from the vanilla portion of the game that points players to the modded content would improve the experience of blind and first time playthroughs, both for solo players and for groups that don't want to rely on the wiki.

Enrages should make the boss fight substantially more difficult to encourage staying in the right area, but PBG's enrage is completely negligible. The fight above ground is almost easier because there's more room to maneuver, and the amount of extra projectiles and movement speed that PBG gets does not make up for it at all. If a player can't even tell that the boss is harder than it should be, then its enrage is not strong enough.

**Include new drops along with new enemies/minibosses/buffs to the Goblin and Pirate invasions as extra optional content sometime during Post-ML**

First of all, these two invasions are the events least expanded upon by Calamity. All other events turned into either an integral part of the game's progression (Frost/Pumpkin moon and Solar eclipse) or added a whole new optional miniboss that gives you the chance to unlock new items if you want to go for them (Sandstorm and Rain, with Great sand shark and Cloud elemental respectively). More additions to both Goblins and Pirates definitely wouldn't hurt.

Secondly, I feel like adding different optional branching paths as to where you want to get your equipment from at that point late into the game could add some interesting decision-making depending on what content is added, especially if upgrades to those invasion "tiers" happen at some point after Moon Lord's defeat (Because a ton of new things open up already right after beating it). It would still need to be tied to Calamity's milestones, though. Maybe Pirates could power up after Providence dies to also steal the Rune of Kos? Or Goblins could upgrade after Polterghast with some new summoning/necromancy shenanigans? (Just giving ideas here pls don't kill me for being too specific aaa)

Lastly, apart from the fact that there's no reason to fighting them that late into the game, if you ever do fight them (For, say, the Greedy ring from the Pirates) it becomes a cakewalk as you're far above in terms of power level. The Acid rain does a great job at remaining unique and challenging during the progression, with 3 different tiers with new enemies and drops. I mentioned adding new enemies or an optional miniboss to Goblins/Pirates + new drops, but I can see that being tons of extra work, and I think a lot of people would be happy just to see a great reason to re-fight those invasions again on the late-game, even if it's just new drops from them.

**Buff Spectre Rifle.**

Okay, so i did some testing with this thing versus Aeries and Clock Gatlignum (all post-Plantera weapons) with regular bullets on Golem. The gear I used was shroomite with the gun helmet, mothron wings, angel treads, asgard's valor, void of extinction, statis' ninja belt, and deific amulet. Here are the kill times as follows:

Spectre Rifle -- 1 min 16 sec
Aeries -- 58 sec
Clock Gatlignum -- 30 sec

Why on earth is Spectre Rifle's killtime so goddamn slow compared to weapons of its same tier? The Gatlignum is arguably less expensive (since gatligator drops from trashers relatively commonly and venus magnum is pretty easy to get also) and it absolutely shreds golem compared to SR! Aeries is probably a little bit more expensive than SR, but it heals a decent amount of damage per hit which makes the fight much easier, plus it fires pretty fast for a decent kill time.

SR is positively awful for boss fights in comparison. Sure it's homing, but when it comes to Golem, it's not super hard to hit him anyways so its pretty unhelpful for that. Not to mention, SR isn't even autofire which means you have to be constantly clicking, which IMO is a big annoyance in a boss fight and deters a lot of players from using it, considering autofire is the standard at this point in the game. Please buff Spectre Rifle so that it can at least compare to the rest of its tier.

**Balance out differences between Crimson and Corruption worlds to make Corruption more viable, and Crimson more difficult**

Playing in Crimson worlds in Calamity is easier than playing in Corruption worlds for a wide variety of minor reasons. For one, the Crimson's terrain is generally easier to navigate than that of the Corruption. The Crimson's bloodletting essence is also easier to obtain than the Corruption's fetid essence, since bloodletting essence drops from enemies which spawn on the surface whereas the Corruption's essence is dropped from underground enemies, and even into hardmode, this remains the same. In my opinion, the Perforators and Brain of Cthulhu can also be considered notably easier than the Corruption's bosses, the Hive Mind and Eater of Worlds. The Crimson also has a powerful rare-item-variant of the ichor spear, however the Corruption's rogue weapon, the cursed dagger, does not have such. In hardmode, Ichor is also a much more desirable debuff to use against bosses and enemies than cursed flame.

I propose that the difficulty of the Crimson should be increased, and along with that, the value in choosing a Corruption world. There should be a rare-item-variant for the cursed dagger to be consistent with the Crimson, and the Crimson bosses should be buffed in some way to make the Corruption bosses equally desirable to fight. Perhaps a buff to cursed flame debuff which would make it more effective could also help.

**Rework Providence's negative-health-dealing flames.**

This is a super cool mechanic, in my opinion, and a really interesting way to deal damage. However, there are two issues that I feel like need to be addressed.

The flames are decently camouflaged by the orange background and tint, since they are also orange. Obviously I know you can turn that off in settings but if I want to do the fight how it's meant to be done, I want to actually be able to see the projectiles that I'm getting hit by. This also holds true for the actually-healing green flames, which are difficult to differentiate between the orange ones in the heat of battle. A clearer difference with the tint applied would be appreciated.
There are barely any indicators for when you get hit by the negative-health flames, other than getting the health sign above your head, since it's technically a healing move. The problem I have with this is that normal damage causes the player to make a sound, which then draws your attention to that. I have been told that there are sounds when you get hit by the flames, but I honestly cannot hear them over the general boss fight noises. There have been multiple times where I was fighting Providence, she went off screen, I went closer to see what happened, and got instantly murdered by the flames that I couldn't see for reason 1 and didn't know I was getting hit by until it was too late. As such, some sort of aural indicator that stands out from the noises of the boss fight would be appreciated. (A possible suggestion would be like how one can always hear the noise of adrenaline maxing out during a fight, something piercing like that noise could work)

Like I said, negative-health damage is super cool and a really awesome mechanic, but in the Providence fight I feel like it could use some work, for the reasons above.

After these accessories, the next Calamity-added accessory for each of these classes are post-Golem and post-Cal Clone (for Ranged and Magic respectively). While in Hardmode, there are many vanilla accessories that can bridge this gap, in pre-Hardmode, there is a large gap between post-EoC and post-WoF for Ranger, and between pre-boss and post-Slime God for Mage.

**Reduce the multiplayer boss health nerf for 3+ players**

Currently, boss health scaling is drastically reduced in multiplayer, and the more players that are in the game, the more this is reduced. In certain parts of the game, this holds up alright, but in the vast majority of cases this just makes every boss laughably easy, especially in revengeance. With four players, boss fights that were anticipated to be extremely difficult were complete pushovers, and throughout the entire playthrough the only three bosses that actually killed us were Eye of Cthulhu, the Perforator Hive, and Cryogen. Every other boss was beaten on the first try. In most cases, nobody even died, and two of our four players had never even touched terraria before.

Bosses such as Moon Lord, the Twins, and even Plantera, who are normally fairly difficult even on multiplayer, are complete pushovers and require no effort at all to beat because they melt so quickly. This problem is heavily exacerbated with the mod's new bosses as many bosses are not designed with multiple players in mind, and thus the mechanics that would normally make them difficult (yharon's constant dashing, DoG's laser walls, brimstone elemental's lasers, perforator's worms, etc.) have very little impact on the difficulty of the fight, even moreso when players can easily abuse respawn cycling in later fights.

Reducing the health scaling decrease on bosses for a high number (3+) of players to, say, 0.75 and keeping it there for four or more players would go a long way toward improving the late game multiplayer experience.

**Reduce the damage of the buffed events (Moons/Solar), but add more complex AI.**

Currently, the only changes made to the buffed events are some small changes to the main bosses’ AI’s (Pumpking, Ice Queen, Mothron), and ridiculously buffed damage and health. The purpose of health buffs is to ensure that you don’t instantly obliterate the enemies, so the 32.5x multiplier for Solar, 6x for Frost, and 7.5x for Pumpking make sense. However, the flat 200 damage buff for all enemies in the Moons, and 250 for Solar feels incredibly ridiculous. It’s very easy to get hit twice and die by any boss, since most of them naturally have damage in the 100-200 range.

My suggested change would be to reduce the damage dealt by enemies in the buffed events, but give them more challenging AI changes. This would help the buffed events feel less unfair and make them a more interesting experience for the player than just the same moons but you die infinitely faster.

Reason: For being obtained after DoG, it's currently very weak compared to the other accessories you can get and isn't really worth using. Unless you're flooding your entire arena in water or lava, the only good bonus is the 15% damage increase, and most people won't go through filling their entire arena with water or lava just to make this one accessory good. The fungal clump minion is kinda just there and doesn't keep up with Yharon at all, the brimstone fireballs that randomly drop from the sky are unlikely to hit anything and even if they do the damage isn't that noticeable, confusing enemies when struck really doesn't seem useful at that point, and while the poisonous seawater can actually do some pretty good damage when it does hit, it's very close ranged. For comparison, the seawater has less range than Murasama, so unless you're using Purified Jam, it's not that good. In comparison to other post-DoG accessories like Rampart of Deities, Core of the Blood God, or The Sponge, The Amalgam seems to be the weakest, and I think it deserves some kind of buff to compete with the other accessories and be a worthy option.

**Add an option to toggle off the Normality Relocator's momentum preservation**

The Normality Relocator was supposed to be an upgrade to the RoD by providing four new features: Ability to use it through keybind, 10% increase in flight time and fall speed, and the momentum preservation effect after teleport.

All of these are good indeed, but sometimes the momentum can be uncontrollable particularly in some boss fights (Providence and SCal). Add the fact that the 10% fall speed increase also stack with the momentum, so you're gonna be falling fast. In some cases, maybe too fast.

Adding an option to deactivate the momentum effect could be nice (perhaps by right clicking on the item while in the inventory)?

**An upgraded version of the Zen and Zerg potion (maybe candles too)**

There should be an upgradred version of these, zen and calming doesnt really work well. This would improve farming a lot, the Zen potion could be named Isolation Potion or something like that (make the Zen upgrade slightly buffed or make it not let anything spawn). Zerg potion could be named Chaotic Potion, Multitiude or something simillar (Zerg upgrade is slightly buffed too). An upgraded Zen would help out a lot in farming for ores and Zerg would help farm rares enemies such as Sea Snails. These could be post-moon lord since most potions are unlocked there. Candle upgrades could be a good addition too!

**Nerf the SHPC primary fire**

I know that it is a legendary weapon that drops rarely from a boss, but:

The radius AND the damage output are insane, i think the left click attack deserves at least a severe nerf to the radius
The plasma explosions might cost a lot of mana to create, but this becomes completely irrelevant when fighting hordes of enemies, as the mana stars that the battlefield becomes rife with can sustain any price as long as the kill count is on the rise. Mana cost is only a situational nerf - sorcerers sometimes get to cast their spells without interruption, no matter the mana drain.

**Rework Brimstone Elemental laser**

This attack is just way too easy to dodge. It makes her easier at low health, because she just sits there letting you get free damage on her. The attack is completely negated by just not standing still given how telegraphed it is. Some possible ideas to make it more threatening would be letting her do a quick sweep with it or making her move/teleport around while aiming it.

**Switch the names of the Soul Piercer, the magic weapon, and the Stream Gouge, the melee weapon.**

I was scrolling through the wiki for cosmilite to see what's going on, and I see a soul piercer. I think to myself, 'ah yes, a spear, fits my playstyle perfectly.' But alas, I was wrong, it's a magic weapon. So then I go back, and I see the stream gouge. 'Well this must also be a mage weapon, right? After all, it's a trident looking thing like the unholy trident...' Wrong again, it's a spear.

To me, the name 'soul piercer' sounds more like a spear, and 'stream gouge' sounds more like a magic beam weapon, since you're casting a stream of magic, or directly piercing your enemies' souls with a spear, if that makes sense? The sprites for each of these are pretty ambiguous as well IMO, since the spear looks similar to an unholy trident in design, and the soul piercer could function as a spear by the look of it. IDK, just a minor thing to think about.

**Nerf the Miasma slightly and change its description**

The Miasma is not a weapon that suits any situation well, but its a bit too good at what it does. It spawns a lot of projectiles each time it's fired, and each is capable of piercing enemies nine times. It does great against hordes and, from what i can see, guarantees the player the Destroyer takedown.
The weapon's description seemingly describes the weapon as it used to be several updates ago: the clouds, if not met by an enemy, continue flying quite a long way and dissipate while moving, never reaching full stop.
Perhaps, another mage "sentry" weapon like the Nimbus rod, from which the Miasma is crafted, can be made out of current state Miasma - i imagine that's what it once was, back when the Duke dropped it.

**Add more sand effects to Sandgun and Sandstorm**

Sandgun is unique weapon, than features good firepower with drawback of world maintenance.
Although the one flaw hurts this weapon: the lack of ammo variety. You have regular sand, than falls after hit and infected sand, than infinitely pierce enemies. But there is a lot more types of sand for use!

I suggest to add unique effects to Calamity sands while used with Sandgun (and possible Sandstorm, but I don't like the lack of consequences, which makes this weapon just a launcher than consumes sand).

Possible ideas:

Sulphurous Sand and Eutrophic Sand are enough heavy and hydrated to stay in air. They could act as AoE "rockets" with slow movement speed.
Infected sands could inflict their respective debuff to enemies.
Sandstones could act as high-damage, high-velocity blocks, but shattering into several pieces of falling sand on use.

Reason: While other classes are expanded on from vanilla, rogue is made from scratch. This means that it requires a lot of weapons to fit in with the rest, and not just in hardmode (pic related).

**Make bosses have an "intro sequence" like DoG's second phase.**

In my opinion, DoG is probably one of the best bosses, in thematically and the fight in general. Notably, I'm a big fan of how DoG's theme starts a little bit before his second phase spawns in. This is awesome and really adds to how cool and awesome the fight is. And, after listening to a lot of the other bosses' tracks, I realized many other themes have the same effect, such as Return to Slime or Interstellar Stomper.

It would be awesome if it was somehow implemented that the bosses' theme would kick in shortly before it spawns, similar o DoG. Why does only he get to be so cool? If this is annoying for grinding, it should be able to be toggled via a music box.

**Increase blood orb drop rate after Moon Lord is defeated**

Every other event has some new thing that drops when it gets harder. Frost Moon has Endothermic Energy, Pumpkin Moon has Nightmare Fuel, Solar Eclipse has Darksun Fragments, etc. But I have yet to notice any changes in drops when the Blood Moon gets harder whatsoever. It just kind of feels out of place that the event gets (marginally) harder, but then nothing else comes of it. I think a 10% increase in drop rate for a total of 20% chance (60% with bloodflare/auric tesla gear) is fair, because it enough to be noticeable but not so drastic as to break the entire blood orb system. (Feel free to remove this post if I'm missing something and there actually is change in drops after the Moon Lord. I just haven't noticed anything nor have I found anything on the wiki for it)

Abyss weapons are important for prehardmode progression, but sometimes the weapon for whatever class you're playing as will be too deep in the abyss to access or be fully encased in voidstone.

Also, accessories from the abyss already drop from crates, so why not the weapons?

Seeing as the Ravager no longer has any connection to the Lihzahrd temple, it feels kind of odd for the medallion to still require temple materials to make.

If Ravager is changed to no longer be dependent on another boss, it would add just a bit more non-linearity to Hardmode.

**Remove boss anti-butchers**

Currently there are 3 bosses (DoG, Yharon, SCal) that cannot be killed by using another mod's butcher function, I don't see a reason for this at all other than maybe DoG's as it's a reference to another game. The only reason I can see this being a feature is to avoid people devaluing a boss fight, but if they already have a mod like Cheat Sheet and want to kill a boss with no effort, they'll just cheat in endgame gear, or put on God-mode, or install a super broken mod just to do it.

Removing butchering these bosses doesn't stop people from devaluing fights and doing them without needing to learn them or try, but it does cause more pain for the people who just want something like a world with all the bosses killed, who have to butcher every boss, and then put on god-mode, grab endgame gear, and then kill the last 3 bosses by hand for no reason.

**Rework the determination breaker into a useful accessory**

Currently, the determination breaker is incredibly useless : It takes up an accessory slot, only serves as a weird challenge item that's only obtained after defeating skeletron compared to the others being accessible at any time, the challenge it provides is incredibly niche, and the way it works doesnt feel like the sans fight, which it references. I have yet to see anyone actually use this item.

My proposed rework would be to keep the immunity frames removal, but to also make all damage taken tick down over time, just like how the karmic retribution works in the sans fight (Maybe based on a percentage, so you can only loose x% of your max HP per second). This would turn it into a useful accessory, that is a better sans reference instead of a challenge that ends up not really feeling like the sans fight because of the lack of the ticking health to counteract the iframe removal.

**Make the brothers in the SCal fight start at the left and right of the player**

Cataclysm and Catastrophe currently spawn at an angle when they show up in the SCal fight, being the top right and bottom left, however, this causes a problem where they cannot hit the player if they stand completely still for quite a while (only the 4th skull fired by Cataclysm will hit the player if they are standing still when they spawn).

This is a problem as there are a few weapons on tier for SCal that deal insane damage if they land directly, this is counteracted by the fact that they can be hard to aim or having to pay attention to the enemy and not the projectiles (Hadopelagic Echo and Photoviscerator are examples), but being able to stand still and aim at an enemy that moves in such a predictable pattern for so long can lead to a brother dying way before even the first Brimstone Barrage comes out.

Brothers are already a fairly weak part of the fight and this doesn't help, making them appear to the direct left and right of the player will cause them to have to move asap, making aiming far harder and making the section as a whole harder. After they appear. they can begin moving to the spots they appear to currently, following the same movement pattern they do now.

**Add glass cannon type sets for Rogue/Melee/Summoner in mid-late hardmode**

In Calamity, damage is generally emphasized more than survivability. Two sets that demonstrate this greatly are Brimflame for Mage, and Plague Reaper for Ranger. Both are incredible armor sets that sacrifice survivability for greatly increased damage, and out-dps any other armor until post-ML. However for Rogue, Melee and Summoner, no such set exists. You could argue Spooky is a "glass cannon" set compared to Valhalla Knight/Hydrothermic, but all it really sacrifices is defense. Brimflame and Plague Reaper both put you in very risky situations, and as a reward you get a huge damage increase. This would increase playstyle variety at this stage of the game for all classes, and overall increase consistency in the armor sets available at this stage.

Simple reason: the boss is intended to be fought underground vs on the surface as:

2: The summon quite literally says "The boss enrages in the open air of the surface"
3: If you think about it, PBG should be in the heart of the jungle, so you would see it in the depths vs the surface if you take a logical standpoint, as its just a plagued queen bee of sorts, so the hive for such would be underground like the rest.

**Have Calcium Potion include bones in its recipe.**

Bones. It's the bones potion. It's literally a bone.
The Calcium Potion is a small headache balance-wise, completely invalidating the single most dangerous early-game threat and one of the mechanics that defines pre-hardmode boss fights. What previously took an entire accessory slot to negate now takes a buff instead, and pre-Hardmode you'll have a lot of free buff slots.

So, apart from the Bones™️ consistency, I reckon the Calcium Potion should be moved to post-Skeletron where the player's first wings are available so as to not cheapen early gameplay and fit in better with the available items (the Skyline Wings and, probably, the Bundle of Balloons).

Boneus points if the bone requirement is really high or they are consumed at a flat rate rather than being memed on by the Alchemy Table's 1/3 non-consumption rule.

Auto Select is supposed to be used with items that you constantly use as you explore (pickaxe, axe, hammer, torches, glowsticks), however, chaos/tranquility candles are not in that category, and having these candles in Auto Select will just force you to rearrange your inventory in a way that you don't like.

**Add a new rule in the dont's document about balancing suggs**

Here are some guidelines for testing before posting a balancing sugg:

Make sure it's not bugged in any way, shape, or form.
For weapons, use it to defeat 1-3 bosses on par with the weapon. Comparing it with other weapons of the same tier is good to do.
Test in Revengeance Mode but do not use Rage nor Adrenaline
Try to use the item to its potential before concluding. Items that are harder to use should definitely be better, but by how much is up to your thoughts of the item in question.
Gear can not be hard to access unless said tested item is one itself (If a tested item is rarer then it should perform better than the others of the same tier). Don't use something like modifiers, goblin-combined crafts, etc on earlier stuffs like Pre-Boss. Consider using harder-to-obtain buffs such as Wrath and Rage later as well.
Godmode is allowed as long as it doesn't affect the outcome of the test
Always expect a weapon to do worse if it has healing or homing. The better the healing/homing, the worse it should be.
I think they should be implemented in a new paragraph in the dont's document as this type of suggestion is pretty common and also rarely aproved, this would help bring down the amount of them and also help people who might want to do testing to do it right the first time.

**Make the scal monster orbs ALOT slower, or reverse the entire change on them.**

Current orbs are inconsistent and can put you in situations tight enough where you're forced to rod, and there's no telegraph for when or where they're gonna speed up.
I guess the main issues I can spot are just:
Old orbs' speed didn't dictate the pace of which you're supposed to circle around the arena, but were still able to give enough of a threat that it makes it extremely difficult to turn back at points, Current orbs are.. quite a bit different. They force you to go at a pace that's incredibly fast while also dodging scal, there's much less freedom to move and less room for error due to it's inconsistency caused by: Not knowing which orbs are fast, and which are slow, making it hard to predict when which moon is going to speed up, And even more so because of their fat sizes which already take up quite a bit of space on their own. But since they're unable to stack anymore, it's a bit.. too much.
It didn't change how you're supposed to move or anything, it's literally just the same circle but you have to go around the arena alot faster, dodging current orbs along with projectiles is literally just hell and it doesn't make the fight more interesting. It's just more difficulty even though old orbs were difficult enough to get around on and do their purpose.

I find that the Rod of Discord and Normality Relocator are extremely convenient while building and navigating the world, and having to wait an entire 10 seconds between uses often feels less like a balance decision and more like a tedious waste of time. Although it makes sense to have such a long period between teleports in a boss fight context (as it would be a very powerful dodging tool otherwise), while outside of a boss fight, it's hard to imagine a scenario where a 2 or 3 second long chaos state debuff is overpowered. Several other mechanics already come into play with a "while a boss is alive" clause, so this sort of thing has a precedence in the mod as is.

Increase the difficulty of the last 3 bosses (DoG, Yharon and SCal)

Im preatty sure that there will be a lot of people who will be against this but I think that is something that is need in the mod. I have to reasons for this:

1-The implementation of the Old Duke: Until the recent implementation of the OD you will go to fight DoG after defeating polterghast and the 3 Sentinels of the dervorer but now between the 2 of them there is the OD. The case is that the OD is a much more harder boss than DoG and his loot is in general in a lower tier compared with the ones of DoG, so while you gave a reason to defeat every other boss in the mod+vanilla, this could be loot, materials or that it unlocks some kind of events, etc.; there is not a real reason to go to kill OD beacause you could perfectly kill DoG with the weapons and armor from polterghast, centinels and abyss semibosses and is much easier than going to kill OD.

2-This may be a little subjective but with the pass of the time I notice that this 3 last bosses are becoming easier to defeat comparing then to what were before, but I admit that the changes that were made were something great to make their fight a lot more entertaining. But improving the fight against this bosses and make it difficult arent 2 oposite things, one can make a fight that is difficult as hell and at the same time enjoyable. This 3 bosses are the last challenge (till the date) that the mod has to offer and from a lore point of view they are titans compared to the other challenges that we face before in the playthrough (we are not counting providence), so defeating them so fast is a bit disappointing if you where expecting a real challenge that will put all your ability to the limit. And yes, I know that a lot of you will say that there is the death mode, but Im firmily believe that this 3 bosses should be a true challenge comparing them to the rest of the bosses that you have fought regardless of the difficulty mode that you are playing.

So i feel that the hive mind item is sort of unbalanced since consider that the corruption tends to be more of an annoyance than anything and the fact the spawn rate is decreased isn't really a downside if it's considered to even be one which based off the wording it is. And you get a effect to your weapon attacks this is mostly a buff and only a buff and it seems that these boss items seems to be more of upside and a downside so i feel that the "downside" should be changed like perhaps the corruption enemies become stronger overall

***Give the devourer of god's dialogue some care or remove it entirely***

And by giving it some care i mean both fix the chat spam bug and improve the quality of the dialogue, because as it stands right now, the dialogue is treated like a joke that isnt exactly funny.
It just throws any form of seriousness from the fight out the window and keeps the player wondering if the thing is bugged and wtf are these edgy lines, rather than have it be impactful or make the actual fight more meaningful

TL;DR: In its current state, the dialogue does nothing but turn the feeling of the fight into a bad joke

**Make Eye of Cthulhu's first Rev+ dash come from the side of you that they're on**

Eye of Cthulhu's first Rev+ dash, where he lines up with the player, always comes from the left. This is an issue in my mind due to the fact that when running left, this dash will normally come from directly below you as the Eye doesn't have the time to get around you if you have decent momentum, this will likely lead to a hard to dodge and confusing dash that kills the player's momentum with knockback before EoC starts charging, which combos into it.

This doesn't seem fair, a new player would be completely thrown off because the fact that it came below them will not tip them off about the dash's actual mechanic, where it's always from the left or right, and it's up to the luck of which way you're running to dodge it. Make it come from the side that EoC is on, so if they're on your right, it's from the right. Or, give a higher delay between the dash and the charges so that the crazy stunlock is removed, at least for earlier levels of hp.

Reasoning: The projectiles are already kind of slow, and when you get Phantasmal Fury, you're on Old Duke and DoG, 2 fast and furious bosses.

**Add a config to reduce/disable dust/light in projectiles**

Low end PC's can struggle a lot with late game content, most of the problem coming from projectiles that cause light and an abnormal amount of dusts. It would be nice to have a toggle to reduce or disable dusts completely (although it might cause some problems due to some projectiles only being visible with dusts), to reduce the lag it may cause. light from projectiles can alsocause this problem, some projectiles dont need to have light at all, like the DoG laser wall. this becomes even more relevant in multiplayer where players will lag intensively on these bosses, without any way to come around it. Sometimes frameskip doesnt work on multi, thus not giving those players the "slowdown" they usually have.

**Give Old Duke some punishment for attacking him while he has "stamina"**

While The Old Duke's "gimmick" is interesting and thematically fitting, I do find it to be a little odd. The idea is that he's generally extremely resilient, but has these bouts of "exhaustion", where his defense/DR goes down drastically for a little bit, and you're meant to slam all your attacks at him during this.
However, the problem arises when there's still no reason to not attack him while he's resilient. It's significantly reduced damage, yes, but it's still just that; free damage. So if perhaps he got angry or more aggressive due to being attacked while still having "stamina", there would now be definitive incentive to stall him out and actually wait until he's exhausted.
This would also make the fight more interesting if you still choose to attack him regardless. While it'd make it harder, due to constantly making him angry, it would give a very clear risk-reward situation for the player that is completely optional, thus giving the fight more intrigue and freedom on how you can go about it.

**Nerf the Starfury even more in Expert/Revengeance mode**

The main problem right now is that it's way too good as a utility weapon, and can constantly spam the light of its falling stars to reveal caves around the player.
This is because when the player grabs it, that player will just constantly abuse its utility without even needing to use any strategy or timing whatsoever, which makes it somewhat of a braindead utility where you just constantly spam the attack button in certain areas, like in caves and even on the surface with how easy it is to use.
Even with the nerf that will be applied in the upcoming update, as stated in the changelog, it will still be susceptible to having its falling stars be abused constantly, and should at least have a tradeoff for a utility that can be potentially game-breaking early on in pre-Hardmode, and even Hardmode.
One idea for the nerf is to have it cost mana, similar to how the old Starfury was like, back before it got reworked from a magic weapon to a regular melee weapon with an additional gimmick applied to it. That way, the Starfury will still keep its utility, while still feeling overall balanced as a weapon with it requiring mana so that its stars don’t get spammed or abused as much, and require more startegizing from the player’s part.

**Buff Polterghast**

He is very easy for a boss that is between Providence and Old Duke, both of which are significantly harder. With a decent arena, he poses very little threat if he is just circled. Polter is a major progression boss with a lot of powerful armor and weapons locked behind him, but his difficulty level isnt nearly high enough to justify all that. He could really be an iconic boss fight like provi, yharon, etc but he is often forgotten due to how easy he is. He deserves a buff to bring him in line with other post ML bosses.

If this does get put into the game I think that building is going to get a lot more love and Calamity is going to be noticed for its building components.

**Remove the 1% acceptance phase for SCal in boss rush**

During this phase, players are free to just stand there and heal all the health that was lost in the fight and wait for cooldowns of revives and potions to disappear. This means that the player can start with full health and revives for Yharon. This makes the last two bosses of boss rush trivial as you are going to be able to start the fights as good as new. Removing the Acceptance phase would make the player have to continue the boss rush with whatever health they have left.

**Change the rogue stealth system.**

I really do like the idea of charging energye and the realising a boosted zttack but the thing is that, right now i don't find it too practical.
Considering that rogue is highly based on fast attack speed. Si staying still (not being able to dodge obviously) for in the end a not so interesting damage output isn't really woth it, wich i find really sad for such a cool mechanic.
Personally i see two options in changing this, either dummy buff the boost that stealth gives or change the stealth gaining system that will center around moving rather than staying still, at that point i didn't really thought of something that would replace the current way of gaining stealth. Overall to conclude i still think that up until late hardmode (and sometimes beyond) the usage of stealth strike is very rare due to the difficulty, or rather the time it takes, to charge stealth.

**Remove the Mantis Claws tooltip, or make its explosions actually do damage.**

I just found out that although the tooltip says that it explodes on enemy hits, the Mantis Claws' explosions are purely visual. This is very misleading in my opinion, since any player who sees this would automatically assume that the explosion does extra damage.

Therefore, the fix to this situation is that either a) the line in the tooltip gets removed and the explosion is just an extra visual effect that doesn't need to be mentioned in the item description, or b) the explosion is given damage so that the tooltip is actually relevant.

**Make the Brain of Cthulhu teleport further from the player in P2**

In part 2 (when BoC teleports and moves towards the player, the phase before it starts circling and dashing) BoC seems to teleport completely randomly, sometimes it's far away in the opposite direction of where you're running, and sometimes it's directly in-front of you, the player at this point has no knockback resistance so if it does this, it's going to lock the player in its hitbox and hurt, the fact that it can teleport so close to the player feels unfair as you would need a split second reaction with pre-hm gear to even have a chance of not getting stunlocked by them. This honestly makes P3 feel even easier than P2 due to BoC being at least a little further away. They should teleport further away from the player so that there's a reasonable amount of time (at least for a pre-hm boss) to dodge them at all.

**Make boss zen a buff that can be cancelled by right clicking it**

I’ve seen people complain in the past about the nature of boss zen in the context of multiplayer games. By making it a cancellable buff similar to one that appears with a pet, players can choose to not use it if they want to farm enemies while their friend is farming a boss across the world.

If you tied the application of the buff to the actual spawning or aggregating of the boss, rather than whether the boss is alive, and made it a limitless buff that is manually removed by the code after the boss is no longer in the world, that would theoretically work from a programming standpoint.

**Rework the Rare Sand Elemental in a Bottle**

Reason: They heal, which is cool, however the method in which they heal is so stupidly tedious, the orbs are thrown in the air away from the player in inconsistent locations, this elemental also never sits in a locked position like the minion summoned by the pearl of enthrallment, so the orbs are always randomly tossed out. I am aware that the heartreach potion helps to give the player the orbs, however... 1: the orbs track the player after the cast which takes up their lifetime, 2: they do not move very quickly, so if you want them, you are standing completely still, which does not help when fighting bosses or stuck between enemies, the main time the heal would ever be used. Lastly 3: The orbs are sensitive to collision and break on blocks, this makes using this minion underground near useless as the orbs are tossed up and out of reach before they hit a block.
I have a few rework suggestions to these orbs a little more helpful in all situations:

to be a lesser heal output but with more consistency, such as creating an aura around each orb to heal 25 hp over 1.5-2 seconds.
Give the orb a sprite and larger hitbox so it does not make catching it difficult or tedious, additionally remove collision so it can travel through 1-3 block pathways.
Make it a timed regen burst (EXAMPLE: healing 10/second for 3 seconds, passive cooldown for 25)
Give the player a higher reward for catching the orbs and make the orbs less frequent to accomodate, gives the player a better risk/reward ratio.

**Replace the Psychotic Amulet in the Auric Tesla helmets with another accessory**

The Psychotic Amulet is fine I guess, but the original accessory is only meant for two classes, so it doesn't make much sense to adapt into the others. More operatively, however, granting buffs based on standing still rewards the playstyle of simply standing in place and attacking outward, a style that is not terribly enjoyable to play as for many classes (some would argue all), and moreover, a strategy that is almost completely irrelevant in the only boss fights that you use Auric Tesla for (SCal, Yharon grinding, and the Rush), meaning that the effect rarely comees into play in the first place.
Good replacements imo could be the Astral Arcanum or Rampart of Deities in my opinion, although those could be too powerful, perhaps the Old Die would be better. I would say Unstable Prism or Gladiator's Locket, but those being shrine items could make them suboptimal for auric tesla armor, as you may want multiple helmets, especially in multiplayer.

Maybe it could be lowered to the rate of the abandoned slime staff, which is 3% and 5% with DR, but that's just a suggestion. Or the drop chance could be lowered after defeating Astrum Deus, since they're basically irrevelant by that point

**Make Aureate booster's acceleration slower if you don't wear reaver armor**

At the moment the aureate booster wings are better than the hadal mantle, the wings from the next ore tier. The reason? Aureate boosters have way higher mobility and are therefore way better at keeping the player alive. Sure, hadal mantle might have that 10% dmg bonus when you wear the appropriate armor set, but compare that to aureate booster's vertical speed, slightly higher horizontal speed and then the 15% increased movement speed with the reaver armor set, makes it so that the aureate boosters are WAY more viable than the hadal mantle. Making the aureate boosters high vertical speed only work as "high vertical speed" when you wear the reaver armor, would make the wings more appropriate for the tier you normally craft it in, without making the hadal mantle basically a vanity item.

Old duke just doesnt fit where he was added. Polter tier weapons already do very well against dog, so another boss between them doesnt make a lot of sense. On top of that, his difficulty level is off the charts, especially in death mode. His incredibly fast movement renders weapons without homing capabilities almost useless, and his charges are timed perfectly to murder you right after your iframes expire. I would go as far as to argue that duke p3 is harder than yharon sub8 by a significant margin, and it lasts a third of the fight on rev and half on death. He is just way over the top between his projectile spam, crazy fast charges, and vortexes. For a pre dog and post polter boss, he is way beyond what would be expected difficulty-wise.

To make it so people would actually give a shit about them, I reccomended that a stealth attack would consume a specific amount of stealth, based on progression(for example, scourge of desert stealth attack would trigger when when have at least 20 stealth). This would arguably make stealth way more useful
Also, to balance this you could nerf a bit the stealth strikes

**Allow the Meteor Armor Set to grant temporary resistance to Heat/Cold in Deathmode**

Heat and Cold is difficult to overcome in the early stages of Deathmode, and protection against the effects is only readily available in Hardmode and onward, so I suggest allowing the Meteor armor to protect against Heat and Cold for a short amount of time. This could help alleviate some of that pain of exploration being restricted while not negating the challenge of Deathmode temperature effects. The Meteor Set is also made of a giant space rock that burns, so it makes sense to grant resistance to cold and heat.

**Make the Seraph Tracer upgrades more unique**

Seraph Tracers provide something genuinely unique and cool compared to Angel Treads. You gain flight for the first time through a boots accessory. Its a highly anticipated upgrade and often one of the first crafts after defeating moon lord. Angel Treads are a big upgrade over Frostspark Boots because you gain all the functionality of Lava Waders, letting you explore the world much more freely.

Considering this, Elysian Tracers and Celestial Tracers are a bit of a disappointment. Of course, they provide cool new visuals and powerful flight and movement increases over the previous upgrade, but they dont gain something truly new like Angel Treads and Seraph Tracers. It doesn't have to be something big, but a noticeable upgrade beyond just stats for each of these would be really cool. Just things to make the upgrades feel unique, like you're actually getting a new item and not a slightly better version of an old one.

For example: the Flying Carpet could be moved from Auric Tesla armor to Celestial Tracers, making them a bigger and more satisfying upgrade. Perhaps Elysian Tracers could provide something like the fast fall from Gravistar Sabaton. These are just examples, but I hope you see what I mean.

**Add different ways for Calamity's bosses to spawn/to obtain the boss's summon item, alongside crafting their summon item**

Currently, a majority of the bosses in the mod only require a summon item to spawn, which generally requires grinding to craft said summon. While this a straightforward and effective method to summon a boss, there could be more variety to this process. You could put summon items in the crag's chests, make enemies drop summon items for their respective thematic boss, or maybe allow more bosses to passively spawn in their respective biome similar to the Aquatic Scourge. This could not only provide alternative ways to summon a boss rather than constantly grinding materials, but it could also allow for new unique ways for encountering bosses to be introduced into the game.

**More support/direct attack weapons in Summoner**

Currently, there is only a few weapons that summoners can use (excluding other class weapons). These are classless weapons and the Borealis Bomber. These are great to use, especially with friends. There should be more classless weapons that either support, or more summon weapons that don't summon minions (i.e. Borealis Bomber).
This would add more variety, and would balance summoner just a tad more. Even further, with friends, more support-ish weapons like the golden gun would be great to have. These classless weapons could just inflict debuffs that aid your minions/friends in battle. This would expand the summoner class and make it more than just "Use rod of discord" or just holding the summoning tool.

**Change the God Slayer Summoner Set Bonus to not be a Mechworm, or change the Mechworm somehow.**

Reason: The concept is fine on paper - make an upgradable set bonus minion. It stands out. However, there are a lot of problems with it, mainly:

Because you upgrade it with the SotM, the minion isn't unique (like all other set bonus minions).
Without any upgrades, the mechworm is pretty much useless, even when compared to other set bonus minions.
Upgrading it costs minion slots, and even when fully upgraded the mechworm does less DPS than weapons like the Cosmic Viper and the Corvid Harbringer.
The mechworm AI is... okay, at best. It either ignores the enemy, tails behind them (but not close enough to do contact damage) or circles them (and it starts from far away, so you need to wait for it to get close to deal damage).

**Clamor Noctus: Do something about it**

Clamor Noctus is like a Sky glaze/Wyvern's call style weapon, and it's post polterghast. Sure, it does moderate damage, but that's if you can aim with it. Against Old Duke, this is extremely painful, plus you have weapons like Thunderstorm, Aether's Whisper, and Venusian Trident that are way better options. Against DoG, this weapon is 0% viable, and is outclassed once again. This weapon really doesn't have a purpose for where it is in the game. There are 4 options to change this.

Option 1: Give it a rework to give it a purpose for where it is in the game. If this weapon was like a combination of Divine Retribution and Wyvern's call and all the projectiles homed or something like that, then Clamor Noctus would be a decent weapon.
Option 2: Keep the mechanics as they are but tier-shift the weapon with respective nerfs/buffs.
Option 3: Combine options 1 and 2. Tier shift the weapon with respective buffs/nerfs, and change the mechanics a little.
Option 4: I'd assume Options 1, 2, and 3 are all preferable, but another option to do something about the weapon is to entirely remove it due to it being purposeless for where it is in the game.

**Add a pingable Staff role.**

As I've hung out in this server often, I've noticed one common issue: when someone starts spamming or breaking a rule that requires immediate staff attention, it becomes a fumble as people ping random staff members, and they don't respond right away, and another staff member comes in, notices it, and takes action. There's no system in place.
Thus, here's a simple system: any staff member, from trial moderator to administrator, can volunteer to have the pingable Staff role, which would allow them to be pinged anytime immediate staff attention is warranted. Yes, there are obvious issues like people spamming the role for no reason, or pinging the role for the wrong reasons, but the spammers can be punished and a section can be added to #rules explaining the usage of the role.

Buffing the Old Ones Army after a post Moonlord boss.

I've always loved the fact that you guys recycle vanilla content, such as the Pumpkin Moon, Frost Moon, and Solar Eclipse (After the Devourer of Gods and Yharon's first phase has been defeated). With this in mind, I was thinking that buffing the Old One's Army sometime after Moonlord would be a good call as well. The Old Ones Army has always been an extremely fun concept, but it only gets buffed after one of the Mechanical bosses has been defeated, and once again when Golem has been defeated. You end up beating Betsy, and that's it for the Old Ones Army for the entire game. This is why I think it should be buffed a third time, and even made mandatory (Possibly by making it so Betsy drops a needed material like how the Pumking drops Nightmare Fuel). It would give players more to do and something else to get ready for while forcing new players to try out Terraria content that they may have missed in their vanilla playthroughs.

I love these two guns, the skullmasher especially. The former is a very good option for Yharon's first phase and is a blast to use, and still even takes a decent amount of health away from SCal. However, the thing I've noticed with these two guns is that most of the extra projectiles summoned on a crit miss because of the angle they fly in from. Even on a stationary super dummy the extra projectiles miss. With the angle they come from narrower, I think that the extra projectiles should hit much more often and make these two guns more reliable.

Other classes can definitely do 5k+ against this boss, so to me Solar Eruption seems a bit weak for its tier. Against ML, it could only do from 2.2k-2.5k. To top this suggestion off, Solar Eruption should be able to do 5k+ against Deus, and probably 3k+ against ML as well.

**Replace the Arena nadoes from the Yharon fight with an arena**

Most of Yharon’s fight is having enough space to dodge his attacks, but the nadoes really limit you, and make Yharon a lot more brutal since you’re refined to a certain amount of space that if you cross without RoD it will kill you instantly, and the arena nadoes really make Yharon seem a lot more difficult then he actually is, so instead of instakills, an arena for Yharon right before the enrage parts are like SCal would be much better.

Giving an arena would give newer players more time and space to learn his attack pattern and adapt, without the constant fear of going too far and having to come back and potentially getting heavily punished for going too far. An arena can do what the arena nadoes do and better, as they won’t be punished for something they didn’t know or ask for, instead, they have limits, which could even make them more warmed up with the SCal arena which might be a shorter arena but there’s an arena they can’t leave, so they’re used to it.

**Add or change an existing Rev+ accessory to negate or reduce the effects of the Marked debuff.**

In Revengeance, a large number of enemies are changed to inflict two debuffs, being Horror and Marked. Horror, as a Rev+ debuff, is very detrimental and dangerous, and considering its incredible widespread usage among enemies, has a specific accessory, the Laudanum, that counteracts it. I would argue that Marked deserves the same treatment considering it's equal status in usage and it's arguably more dangerous effect, that being a flat reduction of your damage reduction by 50%. Due to Calamity's calculations including dr and how the debuffs apply their effects, being inflicted with Marked will often remove all if not most of your dr. This is especially dangerous late game where high amounts of dr are necessary for some builds and is used in making sure that more than 3 hits are survivable. Considering it's equal, if not more dangerous, status alongside Horror, I would like to see either an accessory be added specifically to counter Marked or an existing accessory, such as the Stress Pills or Heart of Darkness, be changed to do the same effect.

**Change most of the accessories which are crafted at a pre-Hardmode/Hardmode anvil to be crafted at the Tinkerer's Workshop.**

The Tinkerer's Workshop is essentially the accessory crafting station in the base game, crafting almost all craftable accessories (some exceptions being wings and yoyo string). However, it loses most of its uniqueness in Calamity, with a majority of accessories being craftable at an anvil. Moving these recipes to the Tinkerer's Workshop gives it back its 'gimmick' and gives it more relevance.
Note that some Hardmode accessories (e.g. Bloody Worm Scarf) might need a change to their recipes to keep them in Hardmode.

**Make the mechs summoned by Draedon's Remote drop something unique.**

Right now there's no reason for this item to be in the game, since it just summons all mechs at once with more stats. This is such a rare item, seeing as Armored Digger barely spawns and it's a 1/3 drop rate, but at the moment it literally just lets you fight all of them at once a bit stronger, instead of using three summons to get an easier fight, which is why most people don't really care about it or would try to actively farm for one. I feel like something unique added when you defeat the mechs would be a good way for people to actually want to actively search for this item.

All of them have just increased item grab range. It's pretty much useless. All bosses have a good, useful lore effect. Look at the Cryogen one. A Dash at the cost of reduced defense. I don't care that I have less def, cause I can equip an accessory in place of the dash accessory and compensate the -10 defense penalty. Or look on the Calamitas Clone one. More minions at the cost of reduced max HP. All of them are really helpful. Increased grab range is something that is easy to get with other mods (Luiafk adds an item that sucks all of the items in the world. That is a WoF drop. Notice that Lui as extremely popular and often used with clam) But I didn't come here to talk about other mods. Even in calamity there is something to get higher item range. The ceaseless hunger potion. If you want to keep those effects, then at least buff them a bit.

**Providing A Way To Access Calamity Lore In Game**

I love the lore of the calamity universe. Its amazing! However it isn't really accessible inside the mod itself. Sure there are lore items, but they really don't provide much closure. Say someone wants to play the calamity mod completely blind. No wiki help, nothing. They would certainly have fun but I don't think they'd have as much feel for the world because they don't know its story. Without lore the siren and leviathan are just a standard boss without any depth, the devourer of gods is just a third upgrade to the eater of worlds. I think having lore inside the game would be awesome! I think the best way would be to wait until journey's end comes out, as then there will be that section where you can read the description of every mob. You could easily add the bosses lore to those slots. Furthermore perhaps some in game items such as tomes or books? Personally I believe the former is the most realistic, but the latter would be pretty cool. Either way I just want the lore to be out there in the game, it'd be really fun, and give the world a nice feel to it.

**Add sentry slots to summoner armors, and nerf sentries (so they're no longer balanced around having only one).**

Reason: Sentries are the only real sub-type weapon summoner has - and, given the fact the player starts out with 1 sentry slot, all of them are balanced around that. This, however, makes things that add sentry slots (see: OOA accs and armors) absolutely busted when combined with calamity sentries (like Spikecrag Staff).
There is a quite good answer to this (although not neccessarily easy): Balancing sentries around having multiple of them at a time, depending on what tier you're at. If this were to get implemented, the Valhalla/Spikecrag combo would no longer be overpowered, while not absolutely nerfing the weapon/armor to the point of being unusable.
A thing that is worth noting is that there's only 9 sentries added by Calamity. That's a very small amount (compared to other weapon sub-types, atleast), meaning rebalancing wouldn't take that long.

**Add an option to bind dash to a specific input**

From what I've seen, there isn't an option in the configs or settings menu that allows you to bind the dash action to a specific input. This makes it difficult to make precise movements on challenging bosses that can punish you heavily for both not using the dash mechanic, and slipping up the dash even slightly. Adding this option to either the configs or settings menu will open a wide variety of horizontal movement in bullet hell-like scenarios previously discouraged due to the risk of an accidental dash. The option to bind the dash action could be implemented by either adding an option to bind the dash effect in general, or by adding the option to bind specific items that have a dash mechanic to a specific input (e.g. bind asgardian aegis's dash to: ___). My proposed dash key bind should work depending on which direction the player is facing, so you don't have to input the direction key while inputting the dash key (there may be a better way of doing this but it's just an idea).The default input for dashing (i.e. double tapping movement keys) should be kept as a "no input" default option for the binding, similar to how vanilla binds certain actions (like the map scroll wheel).

**Change Providence’s enrage outside the Hallow**

Most players will fight Providence in the Hallow since her hallow-exclusive attack is easier to deal with. The only issue is that the Hallow is a very short biome, basically forcing you to actuate Hallow blocks in your arena if you want any vertical mobility. I’d suggest changing her enrage outside the Hallow so that fighting her the way you prefer isn’t so tedious. If she no longer became invulnerable, but instead became more aggressive, you wouldn’t be absolutely forced to fight her in the Hallow at all times.

**Nerf the Relic of Ruins**

The Relic of Ruins is an early hardmode weapon that is completely broken, albeit it makes the game fun it can ruin progression.

This weapon literally carries you until Plantera and for a weapon you can get the moment you start hardmode, it's broken. Especially when paired with the Mana Polariser, it's basically free heal. I would recommend to ad souls to the crafting because up against Plantera and Calamitas, it's great but you can easily find a replacement weapon like the Terra Ray.

Bosses like The Twins are so easy because of the punch the weapon packs. It takes at least a minute to defeat Twins in expert. Revengeance is around the same time. Like I said, the Mana Polariser + Relic of Ruins completely shread bosses. Skeletron Prime is another boss that is usually difficult but gets completely shredded from the Relic.

Long story short, nerf Relic of Ruins because it's OP for an early hardmode weapon.
Also I'm really enjoying my first playthrough on the mod, thanks for making a great mod for a great game.

**Set Corpus Avertor's drop rate to 2.5% like most other rare drops (down from 5%) and instead give us the ability to switch between melee and rogue variants.**

Ravager has a rare item drop, the Corpus Avertor. It's expert mode exclusive and a 5% chance. However, it's up to chance whether you get the melee or the rogue variant. This means that, for that 5% chance, you only get the correct version half the time, balancing it out to 2.5%. I believe this is the reason why the chance is 5%, but this is a poor workaround in my opinion. Grinding for a weapon you want and then having it be the wrong class once you finally get it is annoying and unfun. I enjoyed grinding for the Quasar and the Malachite, but I'm not as excited to grind for Corpus Avertor because there's a good chance I'll get the wrong version once I finally do get it. (By the way, this very same situation happened to Gungnir in his rogue playthrough. He was grinding Ravager for a longg time before he finally got the Corpus Avertor... and it was the wrong version and he was super disappointed and he gave up farming for it.)

Simply allowing us to change the damage type easily (hopefully not so easily that one may accidentally do it, though) would be a perfect workaround. Many mods already have this exact same feature for certain weapons it applies to. Calamity should too... at least, for this item.

**Reduce the amount of materials Worm Food and Bloody Spines take**

EoW and BoC are not insanely overpowered or anything, but the way you summon them is exceedingly odd; either break their respective orbs three times, or use their respective summoning item. The orbs have more properties to them other than summoning just those bosses, so they are considerably more important, and are understandably limited due to this. But the summoning items for these two are extremely tedious to obtain - requiring 6 of a mushroom that only grows in their biome and is completely random, as they have no seed type at all - and 15 of a material that some of the enemies there might drop. Because of the nature of these two ingredients and the volume you have to collect them at, it can take a whole real day just to get another shot at the boss.

Currently, with the amount of geodes dropped from Providence you would have to kill her a maximum of 3-4 times depending on difficulty to get an entire set of tarragon armor. Even more if you want to craft weapons. Killing providence with the gear at her level of the game is a task on its own, but making it so you have to kill providence 4-5 times just to get her tier of gear is extremely tedious and is the only time in the game where grinding for materials from a boss is this repetitive.

**Make Bloodfire Bullets a craftable ammo.**

Currently, the Bloodfire Bullets are only available through the Claret Cannon. The Claret Cannon acts similarly to the Arterial Assault, in that they both turn ammo into a Bloodstone equivalent that grants 1HP of lifesteal to the player. However, the Assault's arrows are craftable, while the Cannon's bullets are not. This means that the player can use any bow and still get lifesteal, while gunslingers have to use the Claret Cannon for any lifesteal. Therefore, to keep things even between ammo types, and seeing as they already exist in some form, the bloodfire bullets should be made into a craftable item.

**Make Amidias' Blessing more useful**

That's a pretty good buff, but with one thing: it works for 10 minutes, while you don't get hit by smth. That's means until you take any damage.
That's because nearly nobody use this buff and that's quite sad, because it's can be very useful for exploring Abyss.
For example, when you mine ore or something in the abyss the blocks, that was mined, need to be filled with water. Without it, you will instantly get a massive amount of damage. And, of course, it cancels the buff and it makes this just worthless. So I suggest to make buff independent from this effect and make it disappear after 2 hits or something like this.
This will make that buff very useful, if you have a little battle skill in the Abyss.

**Change When Boss Items are Sold, or Make Them All Reusable**

There are multiple difficult bosses in calamity where it takes multiple ingredients to craft the summon item required for the boss. For instance, brimstone elemental, cryogen, aquatic scourge all have summon items that require multiple ingredients. This means that beating those bosses requires a lot of grinding in multiple different areas in order to do each attempt. This leads to a big time sink for just grinding for items.

On top of that there are other difficult bosses in calamity that have reusable boss items, creating some inconsistency. I suggest either making NPCs sell the consumable boss items after the first summon of the boss, or making the boss summon items reusable. This way we could cut down on the grinding necessary in order to fight and defeat each boss.

In a test I did with post Plantera gear, I beat Siren and Leviathan in 2 mins (give or take a second). In addition, it can easily carry through Cultist and it's still viable for Moon Lord. It only becomes irrelevant at post ML, when Last Prism can be gotten. So, this weapon should be nerfed as it is a post Plantera weapon that can carry you up to ML.

Why?: This sounds specific and dumb, but absolutely no summon at this point in the game's progression can catch up to this thing reasonably. At best you'll get one or two hits off every 5 seconds. The Core both moves insanely fast, but also teleports around. Summoner actually does really well in this fight, too, because Herring Staff beats up the two Giant slimes and the Imp Staff can beat up the Core. But the instant the Core enrages, this entire fight becomes insanely slow - literally to the point where in my fight, it took me a Blood Moon starting and ending to beat it.

**Create a Rogue variant for the Bonebreaker, or make it a Rogue weapon outright**

The Bonebreaker is crafted using javelins, described as a javelin, thrown like a javelin, and looks like a javelin; javelins are a class of rogue weapons in Calamity. I know that Acid Rain T2 does have a bit of a rogue weapon glut but having this have variants a la scourge of the cosmos could keep a melee option while still giving javelin consistency

In 3 days (May 26th, 1AM EST) the Star ⭐ requirement for suggestions will be raised from 120 Stars to 170 Stars.

The recent implementation of the new suggestion system seems to have brought in a large influx of new voters, and as such the average number of stars for suggestions has skyrocketed. At the moment, over half of all suggestions posted are reaching the current Star requirement of 120, and therefore getting delivered to the dev server.

With the overwhelming influx of suggestions being delivered, the devs have agreed that the star requirement will be raised to 170. A public poll will not be hosted on whether or not this raising should occur, as the devs have deemed it unnecessary. It should be raised, and statistics of recent suggestion Star counts found 170 to be a reasonable new requirement.

Thank you for being such avid voters! We'll see you in 3 days.

**Make the Brimstone Monsters that spawn during the Supreme Calamitas fight semi-transparent.**

At the moment, any Brimstone Darts that happen to be in the arena are completely obsured by the monsters, meaning that while circling the arena, a death trap is more or less what awaits at the top/bottom. Changing them so that they are semi-transparent would allow players to see projectiles that would otherwise be hidden by the monsters, thus preventing this.

**Adjust the Storm Surge to be a Stormlion drop rather than an Aerialite-tier craft, and rebalance it accordingly.**

An alternative approach would be to swap out the Aerialite in its recipe with, for example, Rain Clouds or Sea Prisms/Prism Shards.

❔
Not only does the weapon's design lend itself thematically to the idea of it dropping from the enemy it so very much resembles, but honestly it may serve better as an early-game option that doesn't necessarily require ammo and has more unique properties. As it is right now, it may often end up being overlooked in favor of other ranged weapons that are obtainable earlier and are more appealing or more powerful --- such as the Bee's Knees, the Galeforce, and the Shadethrower.

**Make Sulphurskin Potions negate all damage from the Sulphuric Water**

Currently the Sulphurskin Potions don't really do much. I see how if you were to do that the later armor would not be as useful, no stacking and such. To balance this out, the effect time should be reduces from 2 minutes to maybe 1 minute. Kind of like the Gills Potion. It would make the potion make a lot more sense, because to get the armor you have to grind a lot of sulphuric scales, and having the potion buffed, as well as the effect time reduced, would help them make more sense

**Make Clone reset it's attack pattern when either of it's brothers die (to prevent cheap shots)**

Why?: Clone, when alone, now charges twice in it's attack cycle, which makes it genuinely more threatening. However, there's a glaring error in Clone's attack pattern logic where if either brother is alive, she'll continue doing her "I'm hovering over you and shooting a few fireballs" and "I'm hovering on the side of you and spamming fireballs", and if you happen to kill her brothers during the latter, she'll immediately charge at you since she considers it to be fair because it is the next thing in her attack pattern. This allows for some "technically" fair cheap shots, but they are cheap shots nonetheless, since the player can easily have zero time to react to what is basically a background enemy suddenly becoming the charging main enemy.

If we can set it to noon, then it would be bright enough and I can go about the fight instantly without having to wait. If I want to farm the blood moon for only a couple of minutes less instead of the full course, i can set it to midnight in order to only fight it for about 5 minutes. Or just for completion’s sake.

**Add Dried versions of some Ocean enemies to the Desert**

Why? Currently the Desert is stated to be a dried up ocean, as stated directly by the lore and indirectly with the connection to Aquatic Scourge and Desert Scourge. However, they don’t share any real connection for the desert being a scorched Ocean aside from Cnidrion sharing some slight oceanic theming.

I've seen many suggestions asking for some means to craft the remote or otherwise obtain one easier than searching for Armored Diggers. As much as I like the idea of it being a semi-secret item only found from one semi-obscure source it does make challenging the triple robot bosses a bit of a pain and if you fail you'd need to spend a long while searching for a new one. Also it would allow for us to farm Hallowed Bars and their souls much easier than any other method assuming you are in the late game and powerful enough that the bosses aren't really a threat, as you could kill them, craft a new remote from their remains if you are playing in expert, then go at it again. Plus it would give a use for extra copies of the materials after you've made one Mechanical Cart, as usually after that they are entirely worthless.

**Swap the SHPC's left-click and right-click attacks**

I really love the SHPC, but something that really irks me is the way it works. Every other legendary weapon, or any other weapon with multiple attacks, has a fast-hitting but lower damage main attack, with a powerful right-click attack. Take, for example, the blossom flux, and the scorpio. When you start to use a lot of these weapons, which pretty much all gets going at around the same period of the game, mid hardmode, you develop a muscle memory for these kind of weapons, and it enables you to use these weapons quickly and effectively. However, with the SHPC having this commonality completely reversed, it throws off everything with the weapon's use. I absolutely love the dual-attack weapons, the SHPC definitely included, but it's really irritating when the SHPC doesn't follow suit. Please just change this to align with other weapons for consistency's sake.

**Buff the Spadefish in some way**

Why?: This thing is cool as a decoration, because of the 30% pickaxe power. A copper pickaxe breaks stone blocks in 3 hits, yet the Spadefish takes 4. The Spadefish has a usetime of 4 frames less, which is why it's better than copper (except for the obvious -1 range copper has), but other than that, it's on par with a tin pickaxe. In fact, a tin pickaxe mines generally faster because it still takes one less swing for basic blocks. I understand the Spadefish is sort of a joke (it's a shovel, not a pickaxe), but seriously, this thing is pointless.

**Reduce the amount of durability Abyss Gravel has**

Abyss Gravels have a mining resistance of 1000%, meaning it takes 16 hits with a Nightmare Pickaxe for a single Gravel to be broken, or a whopping 4 seconds without mining speed bonuses. With this in mind, an enclosed Abyss Cabin could take 24 seconds or more to breach into. Needless to say, this is pretty excessive and if the player hasn't destroyed a block in the first 5-6 hits/2-3 seconds, it's really easy to assume that said block is unbreakable with their current pickaxe especially considering the pressure of the Abyss's breath loss system.

**Increase boss death timers in multiplayer**

Currently, boss death timers in multiplayer are extremely low relative to base game - around 10-12 seconds. This is fine for two players, but creates severe problems in 3+ player worlds, as bosses almost never kill all three players at the same time. In many cases, it becomes difficult even to deliberately die to boss fights. This is true even when the bosses drastically outscale the players' current state - one of my friends accidentally summoned slime gods pre-Hive Mind, and we ended up just killing them because we literally could not lose, even on purpose.
This is really unfun, as bosses provide no actual challenge to groups of more than 2 players, and if somebody summons a boss that's way ahead of your current progression, you either have to butcher it through cheatsheet or just log out, since it takes longer for the boss to kill players that are trying to die than it does for the players to respawn.
Increasing the boss death timers to a minimum of 20 seconds and a maximum of 30 (depending on number of deaths in the same fight) would fix several problems that currently exist in calamity multiplayer.

**Make Sepulcher spawn at a certain position during the Scal fight**

Sepulcher is one of the most troublesome and most random parts of the fight; although it depends from where it spawns, causing various scenarios ranging from completely non-threatening to completely unfair due to his kind of slow movement and special abilities (and being attacked by Scal or chased by the moons/brimstone monsters while trying to destroy the hearts which may be blocked by Sepulcher's current position). Although placing a ton of walls might solve it, it doesn't solve the problem of making Sepulcher a pushover. The idea is to make it always spawn on a certain position of the arena so that it can be a threat, but also not unfair to deal with specially during the last 10% of the fight where it usually depends from Sepulcher's spawing position if it mess you up badly or is completely anhilated by rippers.

**Add a craftable, non-consumable variant of bloodworms**

reasoning: The Old Duke is a difficult boss that requires the player to develop a strategy to avoid his charges and projectile attacks effectively (not to mention his unforgiving enrage when taken out of the biome, which most players may chalk up as being part of the OD's regular attacks until they figure out they have a patch of overworld biome in their arena). The only problem is, that can take anything from a couple attempts, to more than 50. The only way the player can summon the OD is through completing the acid rain event, which takes a considerable amount of time, or fishing in the sulphurous sea with bloodworms, which are an uncommon truffle worm-like mob. Adding a non-consumable bloodworm will reduce the pain of having to grind bloodworms for the boss, and will make it so that the player can attempt the boss as many times as necessary without worrying about having to obtain more worms after grinding the materials deemed necessary for the non-consumable summoning item.

**Make multiple shrines spawn, largely depending on how uncommon the shrine is**

Why?: Shrines are cool, and are rare, as they should be. But only one of each spawning feels unnecessary, especially when some of them are actually useful. Both Onyx Excavator and Luxor's Gift are all-class accessories, and in prehm are actually really useful for anyone, yet only one spawn per world. And that's not even counting how difficult it is to find the Onyx in the first place.
Along with this, the Marble and Granite chests are nearly impossible to find, since they can spawn anywhere in the world that is not the surface or hell. Trinket of Chi and Onyx both are slightly more limited in their spawn, but are still incredibly hard to find, and the Mushroom Shrine is almost in the same boat as Marble/Granite. Even if they are supposed to be "optional and rare", they are so rare that most people will only find them in HM - where almost none of them serve a purpose anymore next to HM accessories, that are way easier to obtain.

**Add a config option for Death Mode that allows previously defeated bosses to still spawn**

If possible, I'd really enjoy if the random boss spawns could be enhanced with an option that allows bosses to continue spawning even after you've beaten them (either with a decreased or unchanged spawning chance). I feel it'd help maintain a level of light chaos and interest throughout any Death Mode playthrough. You could be in the middle of fishing at night when suddenly Skeletron Prime decides it wants a rematch. Or you might be preparing to fight the Hive Mind but now the Eater of Worlds is charging at you. I'm aware that having a boss spawn after you've already defeated it might seem pointless (EoC in Hardmode is pretty laughable), but while they might not pose as much of a threat as they did before it'd still make you less inclined to go on auto-pilot. I know some people would find this annoying which is why I suggest making it an optional config.

**Make SCal properly accessible at 1% health.**

When I beat SCal a few days ago, when she got to 1% health she floated outside the arena, about 30 blocks away, and settled there. Thankfully I had Dragon Pow to hit her, but it seems like this shouldn't happen to begin with IMO. Even if the player has a teleportation item or a weapon that goes through blocks, having her go outside the arena is a little weird considering the whole point is that you are supposed to stay inside it. It would also be frustrating for first-time players who are just beating SCal for the first time and then cannot because she floats outside the arena and they don't have the aforementioned items.

Some possible solutions to this could be:

Making SCal teleport to the middle of the arena at 1% health.
Destroying the Arena Blocks at 1% health so the player can roam around freely to get her.
Making SCal not be able to go through the Arena blocks at all.

In Revengeance, Eye of Cthulhu gains a charge that goes parallel to you, to punish you for just running in a line the whole fight. However, this has the downside of giving you a huge window to attack it, something that expert EoC doesn’t have in its last phase, as it launches into a relentless storm of charges. This means that oftentimes Rev EoC can be easier than Expert if you have any form of mobility accessory to avoid the parallel charge. The last part of Revengeance+ Eye of Cthulhu should be made harder so that it isn’t easier than Expert EoC, as Revengeance is intended to be harder than Expert.

**Reduce the aggro range of the Belladonna Spirit Staff**

These little spirits are quite powerful early-game summons and are a good reward for venturing into the Underground Jungle as an early character, but they have a problematic aspect to them. Their aggro range is ridiculously massive, comparable to that of a Stardust Dragon, except on a Pre-Boss summon. This means they will chase and kill off screen enemies very frequently, destroy every pot or vine in a huge vicinity with their petal bursts, and sometimes even leave you the player completely defenseless while chasing an offscreen enemy. I think it would be better if they stuck closer to the player like the Wulfrum Droids do instead of zooming to some off-screen slime, serving as useful bodygaurds and not wiping out biomes without you knowing it.

**Move all current "visibility toggles" (effects toggled with accessory visibility) to Calamity's config menu.**

❔
The current system presents problems largely if a player wants to have the equipped sprite of an accessory visible on their character without the effect that comes with it, or vice versa, forcing them to either have the effect but ruin their look or keep their look but lose a major functionality of the accessory. Sure, it's largely for vanity purposes, buuuuut that's really the whole point of an option to toggle accessory visibility in the first place. It doesn't make too much sense to tie that to player ability where it ain't necessary.

**Buff the Gilded Proboscis**

For what it is, it's not that good, there are better items at the stage of the game, it feels super underpowered, sure it ignores immunity frames, but there are better items that do more damage that actually are good items, for the point of the game you get it, it's super underwhelming you can take any of the moonlord drops/items and they are all better except from the Celebration,
Sure the Gilded Proboscis heal's you by 1 health point, but when is that useful? Plus it's not even that good, by the time you use another item again, their immunity frame will just get reset with any other item. There's not a chance for you to properly use this to your advantage, it's pretty much like any other item in the game,

I think it should be changed by making it faster, and stronger and heal a bit more health.
I think it's damage should be buffed by a small amount faster by quite alot, and heal you for more when you use it, but I think it should be rarer, or have a rare version of it,
Seriously it's just a joke to me, whenever I get it in my playthroughs, I always just end up refighting the boss for a better item, it's honestly a terrible item.

To Summerise: The Gilded Proboscis is a bad item at the point you get it at the game, It should either get buffed damage, and made faster and heal you more , or should have a rare version of it,

The terra edge is an alternative to the terra blade, with lifesteal on true melee hits and the ability to inflict ichor. However, the ability to inflict ichor is incredibily boring, with tons of weapons using it or similar defense-reducing effects. Not only is the effect boring, but you can also just use an ichor flask to do the exact same thing. Giving the terra edge a unique ability would not only make it more interesting, but would give you a more valid reason to use it over the blade.

Give T1000 and Nano Purge standalone abilities to give them more identity and distinction from the Laser Machinegun.

Ah yes, the Nano Purge line of magic guns. These weapons are functionally very similar to each other, really only differing in numerical stats and aesthetics. Although they're balanced just fine, I feel like they're similar to the point of staleness, as even going through the tiers they have nothing unique to really give. I think it would be better for all of these weapons if each machinegun had more unique abilities than simply the ones presented by the initial weapon. For instance, firing a spread of powerful lasers every few seconds, or increased accuracy over time while firing. Something like this could make this set of weapons more desirable.

Buff the Laser Machinegun.

This is a weapon that (if you don't skip parts of the progression) is intended to be obtainable Post-Golem, and as it is right now, it simply does not have the base dmg or firing speed to compete with weapons from earlier stages in progression.
Some examples of these are:
-Razorpine: Obtainable Post-Plantera, has about the same dps (or higher, depending on your build), while being much earlier in progression.
-Ion blaster: A weapon you can make right after defeating Skeletron Prime, has about a dps of around 2500 with minimal mana micromanagement, while also inflicting brimstone flames AND dealing dmg in a small area.
-Lazinator: A weapon obtainable after all mechs have been defeated, has a dps of around 2000.

All these weapons were tested agains Plaguebringer Goliath, while attacking only at the boss itself, and non of its minions.

After investigating the Terraria wiki, I found out that in vanilla it has a base dmg of 60, while in Calamity it has a base dmg of around 40, making it basically unusable, specially when there are weapons of its tier, or even lower tiers which easily match its capabilites, while its only redeeming quality is its "low" mana cost.

**Add a summon for the Traveling Merchant**

Traveling Merchant’s entire existence, loot, and timing is random and a roll of the dice. Every day he has about a 1 in 5 chance of spawning at any time in the day, with what he’s selling being completely random, with some arbitrarily rarer than others.
Roughly estimated, there’s a 2% chance to get a necessary component for a ranged weapon (Tiger Skin for Handheld Tank), and a 3% chance to get a component for a melee weapon (Katana for Omniblade) each 1 in 5 roll. There’s also some gear that is so rare yet needed that Calamity adds recipes/alternate obtaining methods for them. This would be Celestial Magnet for Sigil of Calamitas/Celestial Cuffs at 1.2%, and Gatligator for Clock Gatlignum at 1%
(Methods for calculations in this google doc https://rb.gy/eyjvnt)

This is the most egregious chances for what really just amounts to normal gear in Calamity, and the entire random nature of the Traveling Merchant just makes him a pain if you have any plans for using something from him. As such, I recommend adding some kind of hard to get, consumable summon, so that the player still has to repeatedly work to get the Traveling Merchant, but can actually get these pretty damn rare components for otherwise usual items.

Add crafting recipes for vanilla items that are exclusively obtained from chests that do not yet have them

Currently, many items found only in chests have recipes to provide an alternative method for getting them, such as the cloud in a bottle, hermes boots, magic mirror, star fury, etc. However, there are still many items for which this is not the case, including the band of regeneration, flare gun, enchanted boomerang, shoe spikes, etc.
The reason I suggest this is that it can be frustrating to locate dozens of golden chests, and find that there is no band of regeneration or flare gun, when other items found in exclusively in golden chests such as the magic mirror and hermes boots have crafting recipes added.

**Give the Calamitas Clone a more significant role in her fight.**

Calamitas is at first seemingly an important fight in the mod - you find yourself fighting the brimstone witch only to discover it was just a clone. However, Calamitas herself isn't the most memorable or difficult part of the fight. Dodging most of her attacks is relatively simple compared to other bosses at her tier and her brothers take up the majority of the fight, their combined health in most modes doubling Calamitas's. Her most threatening attack is her rev+ charge, which is not often encountered as she doesn't use it when a brother is alive. Changing her fight to be somewhat more focused on her as a threat and different from Retinazer would make her more significant and unique in her fight. (Perhaps draw inspiration from SCal for potential new attacks.)

**Buff the Glove of Precision**

The glove of precision simply doesn't give nearly enough boosts to justify taking up an accessory slot. 12% damage and crit is nice, but the 20% decreased firing speed cancels out most of this. Considering that you already have damage and crit boosts, these 12% boosts will actually improve your dps by less than 12%, meaning that using it could lower your dps if you have enough damage and crit boosts stacked otherwise. For example, if you had a 150% damage/crit boost, the glove would put you at a 162% boost. 162 divided by 150 is 1.08, meaning that the boost actually gave you an 8% increase in damage output. The increased velocity does make aiming a lot easier, but it doesn't make up for the poor or negative damage increase from the acc.

**Buff the Bloodstained Glove in some way**

Reason: The Bloodstained Glove's bonuses are pretty weak compared to other accessories you can get at this stage in the game and from my experience with it I can say it's not worth using, being one of the worst accessories you could pick. It's outclassed by other rogue accessories that are earlier and easier to obtain, and the Filthy Glove is also better in every aspect. It gives increased armor penetration on stealth strikes, and will heal you for 1HP if you land a stealth strike. Only 1 point of health per stealth strike is barely noticeable at all and seriously underwhelming, and is so bad even the Band of Regeneration can heal you more reliably than it. The +10 armor penetration on stealth strikes is really the only good thing to come from this accessory, and that's not even that good compared to bonuses you can get from better accessories. For being obtained at this stage in the game where accessory slots start becoming more competitive, the Bloodstained Glove seriously falls behind. Buffing this accessory will allow it to be actually viable and make it possible to use instead of something else like Raider's Talisman, Ink Bomb, Feather Crown, or the Sand Cloak, along with letting it compete with the Filthy Glove.

The bee is an accessory that gives buffs when you're at full hp, including a damage boost and 50% independent DR.

**Redo the boss rush's order**

With the addition of the Old Duke, he will need to be added to the boss rush, and I’m proposing a way to help the boss rush and include him.

The boss rush has been the ultimate challenge for quite a while, which almost everyone tries at least once. Since its release in calamity mod 1.4, which came out in Nov. 2018, there have been countless updates to bosses' AIs, including the death mode overhaul and the current update with changes to ravager, providence, OD and DoG, birb’s recent rework, not to mention that 1.4 also completely reworked astralegon into aureus, which was put in the place of the former without any regard for its difficulty. Rebalancing the boss rush would give new members ~~such as me~~ a chance to vote on the hardest bosses and get active within the community, and would give the boss rush a better feel of difficulty scaling up.

Apparently, he was made easy to despawn because when he was first released you could simply run away with him with an artificially extended biome.

That doesn't work anymore - Duke enrages when you get too far from the naturally generated ocean area, so you can't just run away from him anymore.

At this point he despawns far too easily - I've even had an instance where he's been barely off-screen yet despawned. This is extremely annoying given he isn't the easiest boss in the world to summon in the first place, making him despawn less would result in less attempts wasted for little discernible reason.

However, it has to be different than the player death symbol and should only display the last killed boss.

**add difficulty to the boss rush by doubling up bosses**

The boss rush, which is intended to be the hardest challenge the calamity mod adds to terraria (so far), the first parts are always just mindless flying away while using DPS memes like nanoblack reaper to beat the earlygame AIs. The 2nd hardest challenge, Scal, is different than most other bosses in that she doesn't start out as an easy fight, but rather a bullet hell that will easily kill an unprepared player. Thus, I suggest that rather than having the bosses one after another, they could be doubled or tripled up to make it much more of a challenge. This would primarily be for the earlier bosses, because they are typically subject to being melted, however, past tier 4, the bosses should stay on their own, becuase that is when it gets considerably more difficult. Some examples of this would be grouping bosses by biome/type, or just putting bosses together in a way that it keeps the difficulty balanced. This could include mecha mayhem, queen bee and PBG, perforators and BoC, or could be random, with the exception of the last 4 in the typical boss rush, since they are very difficult on their own. This would easily give it much more of a challenge feel, although it could be difficult to balance.

The set in total has 16 defense, then +5 from the set bonus. That's 21 defense, which outclasses every armor up till molten/staigel in terms of raw defense. And in prehm defense is your best friend.

This doesn't make much sense, as the only similarity between the Meld set and the Nebula set being that they are both purple.

**__Rework fallen starfish to be a source of fallen stars instead of fishable mana crystals.__**

Alright so, you can fish these up at night and get a mana crystal. I love that alternative way to get mana crystals, but the use for it is extremely narrow while the fish you can get during daytime fishing (stuffed fish) have way more use allowing you get every herb and even pumpkins. Since mana crystals only get you so much mana, even mages stop fishing for these eventually. Now let me bring my second point, you can usually get more fallen stars by walking about than the amount of these fish you can get up in early game, further limiting their relevance. However if your trying to use stuff like the star cannon or star in a bottles for arenas, a source of fallen stars is all but nonexistent until hardmode, in which Astrum aureus and craftable fallen stars exist. So I feel like making these fish yield fallen stars (similarly to stuffed/gem fish) would allow for more use and less hours spent farming fallen stars via skybridge for potions/ammo.

**Increase the speed of the Herring Staff’s summons**

Summoners have a very annoying time against Slime God for one reason: The herrings are just too slow, and cannot keep up with the Core. This can lead to the core phase alone taking upwards of 2 minutes. If the speed of the herrings was buffed to the point where they could properly keep up with the core, summoners would have a much less tedious and frustrating time against Slime God.

**Make the Ironskin potion scale in effectiveness like defense modifiers**

The warding modifier gives you +4 defense and +1% DR at the beginning of the game. When you defeat the WoF, this increases in effect by 50%, and another 50% after defeating ML. However, the ironskin potion does not scale with progression. I mean, 8 defense from the potion is hardly anything to scoff at, but making the potion scale with the modifiers would make sense, and make the potion a little more effective.

**Add Ashes of Calamity to Ion Blaster's crafting recipe**

The Ion Blaster can be made as soon as you kill Skeletron Prime, and is super powerful towards bosses and makes them almost laughably easy until Plantera+ as long as one has money to afford mana potions to fufill the more-mana-more-damage effect. I'd say add Calamitas' crafting material to the recipe for that reason to limit its unbalance, along with the fact the Ion Blaster inflicts the brimflame effect.

**Add a non-RNG way to get Legendary items**

Reason: Legendary items are very powerful, but they can be incredibly annoying to obtain. Since it’s entirely based on RNG and their drop rates cannot be increased in any way whatsoever, a person can try for hours and still not get the item. This is very unfun and tedious, so in my opinion, there should be an alternative way to get them.

My idea would be to get them after completing a boss in a certain way that makes the boss fight harder, such as beating Cryogen without movement keys, or beating The Destroyer without touching the ground.

I've been messing around with builds for a while and i've noticed that the ability to hover would be very useful for endgame builds and such, especially for wiring. In my opinion the hovering ability should start from the Seraph Tracers adding the Hoverboard as an ingredient to it's recipe. Any other changes can be made, the general idea is to implement the hovering ability as flight time similar to vortex booster since it's annoying to keep a vortex booster in my inventory at all times.

**Remove the Plaguebringer Goliath's surface enrage.**

❔
Just because QB is designed to be fought underground doesn't mean PBG is, and most people didn't even realize it is an enrage prior to the bit in the Abombination tooltip being added to mention it. This simple change would probably solve a lot of the current annoyances with PBG, which tend to revolve around a lack of time and space to react to her attacks without a huge arena. Furthermore, allowing the player to set up a simple arena on the surface also means they can reasonably reuse it later for Dragonfolly and Yharon, eliminating more player frustrations especially given the obscene arena requirements of the latter.

**Remove Abyssal Flames and replace the anything inflicting it with Brimstone Flames**

Enemy-inflicted Abyssal Flames come from the same enemies that inflict Brimstone Flames (Brimstone Elemental and Supreme Calamitas), and deal the same amount of damage over time as the aforementioned debuff (8 health per second). The only difference in this case is that A-Flames reduces your defense by 6, not a significant amount at all.
Player-inflicted Abyssal Flames, on the other hand, is significantly stronger than Brimstone Flames (67.5 vs 20), but barely anything inflicts Abyssal Flames in the first place. Additionally, Calamitas Brew is obtainable after the Queen Bee, and yet provides a substantial amount of dps for the following fights after. Replacing it with Brimstone Flames in this case would do no harm and may even help with balancing out Cal Brew.

TL;DR Abyssal Flames isn't needed, can be easily replaced with another debuff (Brimstone Flames), and all it seemingly does right now is increase burden and generally does harm.

**Make summons able to target stationary enemies such as cysts**

Currently for a summoner, killing those to summon the boss is a pain because the summons are not able to target the stationary enemies. This means that a classless weapon has to be used to kill the stationary enemies which takes very long since they have a low damage output. Allowing a way for summons to target stationary boss summoning enemies would help greatly for summoners trying to progress. as currently it can take over a minute to kill a boss summoning enemy. One way of doing this is by making the summons aggro when a classless weapon is used on the enemy similarily to abyss enemies.

For being post-DS, this weapon is much too strong against higher-tier, 'crowd-control' bosses such as the EoW and BoC. An infinitely-piercing, shard-producing beam weapon is much too effective against these bosses -- for EoW, the whole boss fight (1:49 with Empress vs. 2:00 as standard guidelines), and for BoC, the creeper phase (0:22 with Empress vs. 0:30 as standard guidelines) -- compared to other weapons at pre-EoW/BoC tier.

Possible solutions could include a) simply nerfing damage, or b) reducing the shard count or chance of shards spawning.

Considering you need to get hit by contact damage for these to trigger, something you shouldn't want to happen many times in a row most of the time, and that even when they do they inflict so little damage it gets instantly buried below other damage sources so it may have as well not happened, I think it would be better if they packed more of a punch.

I know that the purified gel included makes it so that it can’t be obtained too early and be totally busted, but for the four weapons involved, I feel like it should closely follow the same formula as it’s melee equivalents. Replacing the amber staff for flamelash would make it so that the staff follows the rule of “having a hell variant included in the recipe.” Wand of sparking also is weird because it isn’t a jungle themed staff, but requesting one is best saved for another suggestion.

**Buff the Bloodstained Glove in some way**

Reason: The Bloodstained Glove's bonuses are pretty weak compared to other accessories you can get at this stage in the game and from my experience with it I can say it's not worth using, being one of the worst accessories you could pick. It's outclassed by other rogue accessories that are earlier and easier to obtain, and the Filthy Glove is also better in every aspect. It gives increased armor penetration on stealth strikes, and will heal you for 1HP if you land a stealth strike. Only 1 point of health per stealth strike is barely noticeable at all and seriously underwhelming, and is so bad even the Band of Regeneration can heal you more reliably than it. The +10 armor penetration on stealth strikes is really the only good thing to come from this accessory, and that's not even that good compared to bonuses you can get from better accessories. For being obtained at this stage in the game where accessory slots start becoming more competitive, the Bloodstained Glove seriously falls behind. Buffing this accessory will allow it to be actually viable and make it possible to use instead of something else like Raider's Talisman, Ink Bomb, Feather Crown, or the Sand Cloak, along with letting it compete with the Filthy Glove.

**Make player-placed spikes from the Dungeon deal damage to enemies, or have them serve as some sort of craftable trap for players to use against enemies/bosses.**

As it stands right now, Spikes literally serve no purpose in the game, aside from dealing damage to yourself if you're "memeing" or to players going through the Dungeon that are too careless, which makes them completely worthless once you mine them and disarm the trap. There's literally nothing you achieve from mining them, aside from making the dungeon slightly easier to traverse, compared to some of the other traps currently in game, such as dart traps and pressure plates, which you can possibly use against regular enemies/events/bosses.

What I'd suggest is for the Dungeon's spikes to deal damage to both the player and enemies if it's placed down by a player to give dungeon spikes at least some viability instead of having them do pretty much nothing aside from acting as some kind of hazard in pre-Hardmode or early Hardmode.

However, this can prove to be somewhat troublesome, as the code may be cumbersome to work with in order to differetiate player-placed spikes and world gen-placed spikes. So I'd like to suggest a workaround for this, where the player can craft player-made spikes from the Dungeon's spikes to make spikes a viable trap for players to play around with in terms of traps.

This same suggestion should also be done with the Lihzard Temple's spike traps, but they deal more damage to both the player and the enemies.

**Reduce spawn rate of Martian Saucers**

I don't remember it being this crazy in Vanilla, I'm noticing saucers spawn literally one after the other. I imagine it's really helpful for grinding weapons, but when you're doing the event just for the first time or for anything other than saucer drops, it gets pretty oppressive, especially since it's locked into it's expert mode pattern so it takes twice as long to kill and is hardly survivable if you don't drop everything to focus it in phase 2. Once you hit 50% it's hard to do anything but fight it. Not just that but even if you can multitask it you get a lot less of the other drops, and it can be hard to avoid it killing your NPCs in the meantime. I suggest either lowering the spawn rate a bit, at least enough to give a little bit of breathing room between each spawn, or adding an item acquirable after event completion that helps to limit or prevent saucers from spawning.

**Increase the defense of melee pmh armor helmets.**

Melee is a class that emphasizes high dps and rewards you for getting close, at the cost of increasing the risk of the player. Melee armors combat this risk by offering higher defense or special abilites compared to the armors of other classes. However, the armor variants for melee in phm don't offer any special defense abilites, and barely have more defense than the sets for other classes. This makes getting close more difficult, and is also inconsistent with vanilla, where melee armor variants always have much greater defense than the other variants. For example, the melee version of titanium armor has 63% more defense than the mage variant. In contrast, the wulfrum melee set gives 30% more defense, victide gives 30% more defense, aerospec gives 25% more, and statigel gives 17% more.

**Buff the Basher and Toxibow**

Why?: These are post-EoC weapons that can be a bit of a hassle to obtain, since Acid Rain isn't really friendly to earlier players even in Tier 1, and because of how random trees are in the Sulph Sea, sometimes forcing you to grow trees just to craft them. But along with this haphazard trickiness to obtain, they're both worse than many pre-EoC weapons. Burnt Sienna does more base damage than the Basher, swings faster, is larger, and heals you, all while being easier to obtain than the Basher and also being pre-boss. All the Basher has going for it is that it inflicts Irradiated, but the debuff isn't really worth it when you could just do that DoT damage instantly with the Sienna's vastly superior base dps.

The Toxibow is a bit better, but is still really questionable; slow arrows that explode upon hitting anything, along with a chance of inflicting Sulphuric Poisoning. But because the explosion only deals 50% of the base damage, and the base damage is 8, you'd just be better off using the Barinade, since it literally does the same thing without any of those downsides, and is earlier in progression. The only thing that the Toxibow has going for it is the Sulphuric Poisoning bit, since a 90 damage DoT in PreHM is pretty meaty, but it only applies it for half a second, and is a chance to inflict it. This makes the Toxibow extremely hit or miss, since you'd be constantly rolling the dice for a sudden 45 damage from a slow moving projectile.

Disclaimer : this is not a suggestion for Calamity 1.4, I'm well aware that's half a year of work (or more, I won't mind) I'm using the 1.4 bit as reference to the fix, which is essentially to let Astral Meteors spawn regardless of whether there's platforms in the sky or not.

**Lower the volume of, or (preferably) completely mute the Luxor's Gift's particles**

While I like how Summon, Mage, and Rogue Luxor's works, Melee and Ranger completely draw out the original sounds of the projectiles (if there are any) and are extremely disruptive of the gameplay process.
Using Multiple-Projectile high-fire-rate ranger and especially melee weapons creates a lot of white noise. Biggest contestants on the amount of noise, by far, are yoyos, boomerangs with multiple projectiles, and fast machine guns like P90 that still have the Luxor's buff.
Shooting a melee projectile inbetween a short space (2-5 blocks) makes them bounce rapidly for a long time, and if you accumulate enough of them the noise can be very loud.
The Ranger Luxor's is also even more complex and loud than that of Melee, making some weapons very loud.

TL;DR Melee and Ranger Luxor's are too loud. I would like to see a complete mute of their sound like it is with the rest of the classes.

We know it's possible in TMod. As it is, the song just sort of fades out and the intro starts playing again. Not only does the intro serve a purpose, playing before DoG even appears, but the fact that it doesn’t have a loop point kinda ruins the point of an intro. It should only play once, then the rest of the fight, you never hear it again.

**Make the Community shows its exact stats ingame, and update said stats whenever the player defeats a boss that grant the accessory stat increases.**

While there is indeed a wiki page detailing its stats at each point in progression, it'd be a nice QoL thing to allow players to directly compare the stats of it to other accessories ingame themselves without having to look up the information from the wiki, and as such be able to better and more conveniently decide when they should use it. If this will result in a too big of a text wall, the bonuses could instead be listed all in a single line, rather than separated into many different lines like the stat meter.

**Remove melee/rogue variants**

Melee/rogue variants add nothing to gameplay except make some parts of the playthrough stale if you've played the other class before (like using Elemental disk with both classes against providence).
Also many of the melee/rogue variants do not thematically fit with the theme of the class. Such as Corpus Avertor having a melee variant, and the hammer weapons having rogue variants.
In some cases, only one of the variants gets an upgrade. This means that if you're a rogue, then, let's say, elemental disk is later used in Celestus, but if you're melee then it's the end of the crafting tree.
In other cases, a crafting recipe will require a weapon from another class, e.g. equanimity (a rogue weapon) being used to craft the terra disk (a melee variant weapon) In genera, the variants are just from a past version of the mod that don't nesesarilly have a reason to exist in current version

Make defiled rune affect the drop chance of compass

Defiled rune already affects the drop chance of depth meter from cave bats, which is an enemy more commonly encountered than the enemies that can drop the compass, with the possible exception of piranhas. However, defiled rune also affects the drop chance of hooks from piranhas, which was already more likely to be dropped (3.3% vs 1.33%).
In addition, the majority of items that have a <5% drop chance to drop from enemies are affected by defiled rune. Doing this would maintain the consistency of its intent to increase the drop chance of rare vanilla items from enemies.

**Reduce the time it takes to mine Abyss Gravel**

At the intended point in progression where you're supposed to get early Abyss gear, you only have a Nightmare Pickaxe, Molten at best. Abyss Gravel takes 5 seconds to mine with the Nightmare Pickaxe, which is extremely long compared to most blocks. Considering very little else in the game takes this long to mine, many players will attempt to mine Abyss Gravel, and assume they can't with their current pickaxe. Additionally, it's not uncommon for Shadow Chest rooms to be in a position where the door is blocked, forcing you to mine through. This either leads to people assuming they just can't get the chest, or up to 20 seconds of trying to get into a room while under the oxygen and enemy stresses of the Abyss.

At the moment, the abyss feels too accessible in the early game in rev+ with the Siren's heart.

Combining it with other early game items such as the ocean crest and gills potion make it incredibly easy to loot nearly the entire abyss above the void stone layer the moment you get a shadow key. Fix this by either removing the abyss breath loss effect or significantly reducing it in pre-hardmode, and buffing it to its current state when the player enters hardmode (or even post Siren and Leviathan).

**Give Rogue an Early Hard Mode Armor set**

Currently in early hard mode, rogue users are very limited in what armor sets they can use before cryogen. Statigel is obtained in pre-hard mode making it under-powered in hard mode. The Forbidden Circlet doesn't give rogue many benefits and is more focused on helping summoner, and the Mollusk armor is a generalist armor that doesn't increase rogue velocity or give stealth meaning that rogue users don't get much benefit out of it other then a bit more damage. Adding a basic early hardmode rogue armor set that's stronger than statigel would make using rogue a lot more bearable since you're not forced to use armor sets made for other classes or armor that's underpowered. Every other class has an early hardmode armor set, adding one for rogue would make the classes more balanced.

**Buff or rework Gehenna to give the player a reason to actually use it**

Reason: This thing is really underwhelming for being an accessory dropped from a Hardmode boss, all it does is drop a few brimstone fireballs from the sky about every 10 seconds. From my experience trying to use it, I can say it's pretty hard to actually land these fireballs, and even if they do hit something the damage isn't that noticeable and it can't be increased through any means. It's horrible for anything I could think of at its tier and I can't even imagine it being intended for early Hardmode. Now that you've just killed Brimstone Elemental, there are much more reliable ways of inflicting Brimstone Flames that don't waste an accessory slot, such as with her lore item, or with the Unholy Core weapons, and there are much better accessories at that point to increase your damage output, like your class emblem, or hell even something like Amalgamated Brain. Currently, its only real use is to be a component for Void of Extinction, and buffing it would help it compete with the other accessories at its tier and give the player a reason to want to actively get the accessory for the tier that it's at.

TL;DR These brimstone fireballs are pretty much useless because they're unlikely to hit anything and don't do much damage. Gehenna deserves some kind of buff or rework so it can compete with the other accessories and be a worthy option.

It's undebatable that Entropy's Vigil used to be in a broken state due to bugs. However prior to these bugs, the weapon was in a fine state, being strong but not overpowered. After being fixed, the weapon also received nerfs, which have crippled it beyond use. Entropy's Vigil should be buffed to a state in which it can reasonably compare with other summons of its tier. The weapon is pitiful, barely surpassing 300dps on single targets, with killtimes that weapons before its tier can beat with ease.

The problem with this is the fact that carrying 1 platinum on you at any time is a very bad idea, especially considering how deadly calamity mobs are. An additional reason for this is that many calamity users use luiafk aswell which adds a money collector, meaning that getting the bandit is very weird in a way since there is no reason to take the coins out once they're in the bank.

Alternatively, only in death-mode

Considering that death mode revolves around adrenaline (not getting hit), if you want to be able to dodge every attack you're gonna have to practice, practicing a boss and slowly getting better over time is rewarding, and I think spacing out those bossfights with arbitrary item grinding just hurts the experience overall.

Consumable boss summons is a game mechanic that has stuck around since the beginning of terraria, and it made sense because bosses were very forgiving, and you generally didn't have to put in many attempts to beat it if your gear was up to date for that fight, but in death mode, it's not uncommon to spend like 30+ attempts on a single boss.

**Rework the frost flare.**

Currently this accessory is an absolute mess, with effects that are incoherent and don't make sense. The frost flare provides resistance to cold attacks, as well as immunity to cold related-debuffs. Essentially, these effects make fighting cryogen and similar enemies easier. However, this accessory also has a completely different and unrelated set of effects, that being buffs based on the player's hp. The accessory gives 10% increased damage over 75% hp and increased mobility and defense below 15% hp. This doesn't fit with the theme of giving resistance to cold attacks. Finally, the accessory also allows melee weapons to inflict frostburn and grants increased life regen at all times. The increased life regen is incredibly random and doesn't fit with any of the other effects. The frostburn effect is fine, but all classes should benefit from it. This accessory should be changed to either focus on resistance to cold-related enemies and the ability to inflict cold-related debuffs (which I would prefer), or to focus on stat boosts based on the player's hp.

**Add new enemies specifically for Bloodstone.**

Bloodstone is most often acquired by either farming Ravager bags before defeating Provi and opening them afterward, or farming Brimstone Crag enemies. Either way, this experience doesn’t provide a whole lot to the player as they either nuke Ravager, or have an uninteresting time farming the Brimstone Crag enemies that they’ve already fought before when prepping for Brimstone Elemental. Brimstone Crags enemies suffer more from this, as health and damage stat buffs don't do a whole lot interesting in providing challenge and fun to the player.

It's also a mess of theming. It's drop is caused by a sun goddess, and then is dropped by brimstone enemies, Calamitas, and Ravager. Then, the gear ends up providing health benefits, and the entire armor set needs souls from spirits in the dungeon. It leads to unconnected gear, and a set that doesn't really fit well in the lore of the world.

My suggestion would be to make Bloodstone and Bloodcore more unique by adding enemies that would specifically drop Bloodstone, so that it doesn't feel like a boring mess of theming. This would make the gear more unique, give it it's own place in the world of Calamity, and make Post-Providence mobbing a bit more interesting and not repetitive.

**Add a wider variety of profaned enemies to encounter, such as new ones after defeating Providence or based on whether you're in the Hallow or in Hell.**

❔
As of right now, the enemy variety for post-ML in general is...a bit lacking, with a whopping three (3) new enemies introduced to the playing field right after ML...that all more or less drop the same thing. Not only are the current profaned enemies lacking both in complex AI and proper variety (and also drops but that's another story), there's also no difference between the four states of profaned existence: pre-Provi Hallow, pre-Provi Hell, post-Provi Hallow, and post-Provi Hell are all virtually identical. Adding a wider variety of enemies to encounter themed around the Profaned Goddess, and perhaps restricting some of the existing and new enemies to certain biomes, would increase the diversity of gameplay and would help to ease the major issue of most of the post-ML segment of the game, which lies in the fact that there is very little new stuff to encounter outside of boss fights.

**Make Eidolists be able to take more damage before aggroing**

Eidolists start spawning in the dungeon as soon as hardmode begins, but most players aren't equipped to take them on until later in progression. Accidentally doing damage to an eidolist in early hardmode forces the player to teleport back home or die. If eidolists could take three hundred or so damage before attacking the player, the dungeon would be more forgiving at that stage of the game.

**Grant Ceaseless Void specialized immunity frames that keep it from losing too much health too quickly.**

❔
As it is right now, the Ceaseless Void has two types of phases: the parts where you can hit it, and the parts where you can't hit it; ideally, both should be of about equal importance to the battle. However, because of Ceaseless Void's asinine DR, it only takes 1 damage from anything --- which actually makes slower weapons borderline unusable for the fight as you generally want to get the vulnerable phases over with as fast as possible. On the flipside, spammy weapons such as the P90 and Seadragon, or weapons that ignore immunity frames to a point such as the Telluric Glare and the Solar Flare, make the vulnerable phases completely irrelevant because they pass in about 2 nanoseconds. Granting Ceaseless Void special immunity frames for these vulnerable phases would help to prevent them from becoming trivialized and give a bit more chance for the Ceaseless Void to actually do something during these parts of the fight.

**Diversify the behaviors of Ceaseless Void's Dark Energies, and make them tankier but come out in smaller numbers.**

❔
The Dark Energies as they stand in the fight right now are...honestly rather uninteresting. They just come at you in bunched-up groups, and they're really easy to hit all at once with anything that pierces (read: a lot of items on CV's tier). The result is Dark Energies being less than engaging to the player and being mostly invalidated by commonly picked weaponry at the tier Ceaseless is fought. Making the Dark Energies tankier and having fewer of them come out would prevent them from being invalidated as easily by piercing weaponry, while diversifying their AI would help to make the fight a little more engaging in a way that it currently lacks despite the potential that Dark Energies have.

**add a toggle option in the config for the Boss Zen debuff**

Whilst grinding/farming I like to maximise my efficiency through farming both mobs and bosses, however when theres a boss present, it gives the players the Boss Zen debuff which prevents regular enemies to spawn. Many features that Calamity has added came with a toggle option in the config, to give the players the choice of toggling certain features they do not want in their gameplay (e.g. profeciency). Having the same toggle option for the Boss Zen debuff would mean players have the choice to get this feature removed from their gameplay when they dont want it.

The Zen Boss debuff is a great feature and many players wanted it, I would understand if it was a mod on its own or have a toggle for it, but having it mandatory to have within Calamity just makes it unfair on the players who never wanted it.

Give the cosmetic effect of the Young Siren to another item that isn't the Siren Lore

The Young Siren Pet, when outside of liquids, hops like a fish. However, when you are with the Siren and Leviathan lore, she will behave like normally, and also give treasure detect, but with this, your defense and damage reduction are reduced. It's cool to have the little Young Siren hover above your head constantly, but the unic item that does this forces you to be always underwater so you don't have any penalty, what kinda breaks the purpouse of the cosmetic addition of the Young Siren

The black belt and its upgrades currently give the player a 10% chance to dodge attacks.

Since Statis' Ninja Belt is made immediately after getting Master Ninja Gear, it makes MNG completely obsolete, especially since you're likely to already have the rest of the materials by the time you get Master Ninja Gear.

**Move Xeroc Wings to Post-Moon Lord**

The Fishron Wings, gotten 1 boss before Xeroc Wings, are functionally identical to Xeroc Wings with the exception of Fishron's speed bonus being ~33% less. Because of this, Xeroc Wings do not need to exist in between Cultist and Moon Lord. Additionally, Xeroc Armour is obtained after Moon Lord, yet the wings with a bonus related to that set appear two bosses prior, causing the placement of Xeroc Wings to feel disjointed in progression. Xeroc Armour is the pre-Providence rogue armor, and the wings for all the other classes' armours at that stage are all obtainable at the same time. Moving Xeroc Wings to Post-ML would help increase consistency across the classes at that stage.

**Make fetid essence drop from Eater Of Souls and Corrupters instead of Devourers and World feeders.**

As it stands, bloodletting essence is MUCH easier to obtain when compared to fetid essence, as the spawnrate of Face Monsters and Herplings is much higher than World Feeders and Devourers, so much so that fishing for evil crates to get fetid essence could be considered less time consuming than killing the worms, when with a crimson world you could just stand around and get it with ease from killing the incredibly common face monsters. If fetid essence dropped from EoS and Corrupters however(albeit at a much lower rate as they are pretty much the only enemy that spawns in the corruption PHM) it would make grinding for them much less time consuming and annoying, making it more consistant with how fast you can get bloodletting essence in the crimson.

__**Give Gulper Eels a drop post-Polterghast.**__

These enemies spawning in the 3rd and 4th layers of the abyss have no purpose other than to be a hazard, giving them a unique drop will not only give them another purpose, but will also give players a reason to actually want to encounter them.

**Give Bloatfishes much higher defensive stats.**

Currently, Bloatfishes exist to act as a meatshield for other enemies, as seen by its very low damage and unique pierce-killing and expansion capabilities. However, since it spawns in layer 4 of the abyss, which is post-Polterghast, and because it only has 24k health, this enemy gets destroyed very quickly and doesn't really get a chance to do its job. Therefore, a heavy increase in defense and health (and DR if in rev+) would make this enemy actually be able to serve its very unique purpose.

At the point in the game where you obtain auric tesla, the auric carpet from the boots is usually more harmful then helpful because if your flight time runs out and scal is horizontal to you, it will usually result in you getting hit. And there is little point to having 5 seconds of horizontal flight at that point in the game too.

It could be a Giga hell blast, or maybe even a tiny dart. This easily leads people into thinking that they got hit by nothing and isn't really fun. It doesn't make it difficult at all, it just gets annoying. Removing collisions will make Scal infinitely more enjoyable

The sword becomes pretty useless after polterghast which doesn't make much sense seeing as the sword is meant to be Yharim's sword. The buff the sword gives is undoubtedly useful but against stronger bosses it's a risky venture to go for a true melee strike, especially as a solo player. I think an upgrade for it using cosmolite or auric Tesla bars would make it much more important especially in the late game.

**Make DoT debuffs more interesting.**

Many DoTs in calamity just do damage, or just do damage and reduce defense by a bit. This makes them feel very boring and samey, and also cause them to have little effect on how you play the game, basically just being extra damage from the bosses hit. To divierify DoTs, give them more varied effects that force the player to play differently or adapt to the effect. One example of a DoT that forces the player to adapt is the plague debuff, which reduces vision. Another interesting DoT is electrified, which does more dps if the player is moving.

**Increase armour diversity post-Moon Lord**

After you beat Moon Lord, there's a set armour path that almost everyone will follow, that being Lunar -> Tarragon -> Bloodflare -> God Slayer -> Silva -> Auric Tesla. This leads to post-ML feeling very constrictive when it comes to your choice of armour. The only two armour sets that differ from this path are Fearmonger and Omega Blue, the former being a summoner hybrid set with the latter favouring glass-cannon playstyles. These two armour sets are great as they offer options that aren't the default. If there were more armour sets like these two post-ML, it would allow for more build diversity at this stage of the game, along with giving players an actual choice in what they use in terms of armour.

**Make OOA Armors cause sentries to ignore the summon damage penalty for their respective class.**

OOA armors are made to be a combination of the sentry playstyle and their respective class. However, due to the summon damage penalty, people have much less incentive to incorporate sentries into their playstyle. Since the OOA armors are weaker on the whole compared to other options, people have little incentive to use them except for mixed sets. Allowing sentries to ignore the summon penalty with weapons over a certain class would make this hybrid playstyle more viable.

Why?: On paper this lore is fine, because increased movement is almost always good, but not only is the defense decrease kinda bad because of how important defense is in preHM, the movement and jump increase is so insanely small that I legitimately don't know if it matters. Again, any movement increase is good, I guess, but the jump increase at the point you'd get it in progression - at least from what I can tell - is a 1 pixel increase in jump height. Not only is this nearly impossible to notice, but in what situation does this help anyone?

However there are so many more materials you get during your post ml journey, and just having the use the same pickaxe for the whole thing just doesn’t feel right as there are so many other armors and weapons available. Post ml pickaxes need variety, most pickaxes just get increased speed and pickaxe power, only the crystyl crusher has a unique mining mode (to my knowledge) these new pickaxes (bloodstone, cosmilite, auric tesla) should have their own special modes, either as a right click ability or a left click ability.

Make the stars from the astral armor set bonus hit more consistently.

The astral stars that fall from the sky from the astral armor set bonus are too slow to hit either to moon lords hands and his core. You have to force moon lord to move into them for them to actually land them. Even when you do land them, they only do 130 damage. To make them more effective, give them a buff in their ability to hit their target. An increase to velocity or the addition of homing are two possible solutions.

Actually, Large Slimes in the Slime God fight spawn in the Left and Right sides from the player, but there's a catch, Larger Slimes only appear when theres a tile below them, and also they ignore the platforms and planterboxes, that means if the player is too high or in space, the Larger Slimes dont appear, and the core will appear. My solution is to make The Larger Slimes appear with the Core, so they can appear when the player is to high.

As it stands, once you beat Skeletron, you essentially have access to almost every potion in the entire game, even the ones that are normally locked behind Hardmode.

Add a placeable item that makes it possible to build a base in the Abyss.

As it stands, though some biomes are harder than others, it's possible to build a base in every single biome in the game; except for the Abyss. The damage dealt by standing in air in the Abyss completely prevents building any sort of permanent base there, as well as the inability to mine the walls. In order to avoid potential cheese, a placeable item could only reduce the damage unless a town NPC or two is nearby, in which case it granted full immunity to air health drain. This would prevent you from simply carrying the item on you and putting it down whenever you needed air (though the ability to break walls would have to function on its own, to enable building an NPC house in the first place).
I don't think allowing a benchmark in the abyss where you could regain breath is a huge issue, given that you would've had to survive long enough to build an NPC house or two in the first place. Additionally, if the item was in the Abyss Shrine, it would grant a reward beyond the boss rush that most people don't finish anyways.
