**Increase the Yharon horizontal battle arena size**

I know the point of this is to give you limited space to fight, but it just makes it unplayable for me. Digging a huge chunk of your jungle out just for room to fight takes forever, and it sucks. If the horizontal arena was a little larger, it would save time spend digging and make Yharon much more enjoyable.

**Give super dummy settings**

basically, make it so you can give the super dummy defense, damage reduction, and debuff immunity.

why? because this would give the player much better ideas of how certain weapons do against certain types of enemies, and how debuff inflicting weapons could work against enemies immune to those debuffs. overall making dps testing with the super dummy more accurate

Let the seafood get thrown into the sea to spawn as.

Aquatic scourge is currently spawned via using an item called the seafood. You summon him simply by using the item. However, throwing the item in the water, similar to how the guide vodo doll is thrown in lava. The reason is pretty simple, you’re using the seafood to attract the boss, and you’d have to throw it into the water to attract it. In addition, it would be consistent with both duke bosses, who are spawned by using a worm to bait them.

**Make the entirety of Plague less of a "stick-in-the-mud" and give the theme a precedent in earlier spots of progression.**

Plague themes currently feel too forced, everything about the plague just dropping on players once you beaten Golem. Making the Plague content spread throughout previous points of Hardmode would make it less of a cramped theme and more natural throughout a big part of gameplay.

Some ideas to support these could be, but won't be limited to:

Spreading Plagued mobs throughout HM, gradually unlocking the roster as the player progresses.
Making Plaguebringer Goliath also able to be spawned through regenerating, destructible tiles that spawn once HM starts, in a similar fashion to Queen Bee.

**Swap the names of Seraph Tracers and Celestial Tracers**

Why? Seraph Tracers are made from Luminite, a celestial material. Futhermore, most things with the label "Celestial", like the Pillars, Reaper, Onion, Jewel, Shell and Stone, are either late-Hardmode or early-post-Moon Lord.
The wings on Celestial Tracers look quite angelic, which would match the Seraph part, which means an angel of the highest order.

**Make the death mode Antlion (not charger or glider) sand blobs not turn into blocks.**

why? All the extra sand blocks do is ruin arenas built low to the ground and make the ground of the desert ugly. It makes extended prep for bosses like desert scourge and giant sand shark very annoying because you have to mine random sand blocks from the bottom and second platform, as well as making the ground uneven, meaning you constantly get stuck on the ground. Even underground it just fills up holes which is only a mild inconvinience instead of a challenge.

**Rework Post-Golem/Pre-ML Progression**

?

After defeating the golem and obtaining Scoria ore, the player is recommended to fight the Plaguebringer Goliath, Duke Fishron, Ravager, Lunatic Cultist, (the chore of Celestial Pillars) and then Astrum Deus. For Plaguebringer Goliath, there is a small bit of work in gathering the cell cannisters for it’s summon, and there is a small break in the form of doing the Celestial Pillars and Martian Invasion. However, this is still 5 bosses in a very short amount of time, and Astrum Deus interrupts the Celestial Pillars and Moon Lord's leadup by being inbetween LC and Moon Lord. This time period is one of, if not the heaviest contributor to the overly simplistic “kill boss->loot boss->repeat” cycle of Calamity.

Giving some space between the bosses where the player can either explore to get new gear, mine for new gear, or be encouraged to do something besides the five bosses in a row would help break the cycle up more and give some much needed variety in that portion of the game.

📎 Plaguebringer_Hitboxes.mp4

**Fix/Enlarge Plaguebringer's (Regular Enemy/Miniboss) Hitbox**

The hitbox for the Plaguebringers is in their wings, rather than in the actual body. This can be infuriating for mainly Ranged players or weapons that have small/thin projectiles since they have to be very precise to hit the wings rather than the body. This is most noticeable in the dashing animation and is not (to my knowledge) present in the upright sprite where they spawn the Plague Chargers. If you expanded the hitbox from the wings to the actual body it could make the enemy a bit less infuriating to deal with.

**Make Terra edge a R.I.V of Terra blade, and make it more distinct.**

Right now terra edge just feels like an inferior version of the terra blade with some random special effects slapped on to make it distinct. It's essentially identical to said weapon, but with a higher base damage, a lower projectile damage multiple, infliction of ichor, and true melee lifesteal. This rework would give it a different way of being obtained. In terms of it's item functionality, it should focus more on its unique abilities.

Perhaps its true melee effectivenesss could be increased, and the projectile could be spawned on enemy hits to encourage true melee more. That's just one idea, but leaning into what makes terra edge unique far more would make it much more distinct as a weapon, and make it feel much more like it's own weapon rather than a slight variation on blade.

**Add a unique melee armour set for HM/post ML**

As of now, there are various unique armor sets tailored for the other 4 respective classes but none for melee whatsoever. For consistency, an armor set somewhere in hardmode or after moonlord would fit. Focusing heavily on true melee could make it stand out from other multiclass armors. A potential set bonus could be drastically increases true melee damage, but either prevents projectiles from swings from spawning or lowering base melee damage by half, but increasing true melee by a lot, giving a net positive. Balancing and progression would vary, but something related to the temple in HM or yharon after ML would work nice thematically

From a personal perspective, the Flask of Fire tends to out DPS the Flask of Poison. The added benefit of igniting enemies allows them to be seen easier. As of this, the Flask of Poison could have a bonus secondary effect which could make them more competitive with other flasks. Having a secondary effect like slowness could be interesting.

Rework the turtle armor set into a true melee set.

Currently, turtle is forced to compete with 4 melee armors on a similar tier, hallowed, chloro and the ooa armors. In a tier that crowded, you really have to stand out to feel necessary and interesting. A true melee speciality would give it a unique role not covered by any other armor. Turtle in some ways is already favorable to true melee, with the thorns set bonus helping the risky play of true melee the most. However, even in 1.4 the effect is weak due to how much more hp bosses have than the player. Therefore, I suggest greatly buffing this effect, and perhaps adding an additional effect to make it more suited for true melee.

**Make sniper zoom from accessories toggleable via visibility**

It's mildly sickening to see my screen jump around when I try to right click on something interactable if I happen to slightly miss with the rifle/sniper scope equipped. I only use the sniper scope for its ranged damage/crit boost and I imagine most others would, too. Would be nice if you could toggle the zoom function by toggling it as visible/non-visible. It may help a lot for those who are motion sensitive or just find it to be annoying. This change shouldn't affect weapons which can already zoom; specifically talking about the accessories which give the ability. Alternatively, have an item that you must favorite, like the Ball and Chain, to the same effect but for both accessories and weapons which use zoom.

**Drastically increase the damage of Duke's Decapitator the slower it moves.**

Duke's Decapitator could be somewhat an interesting weapon to play with if it isn't so unrewarding for the thing you need to do with the weapon. The fact that it stops after a while of traveling or after hitting an enemy makes it so that you need to mother NPCs to keep within the hitbox(es) of Decap as long as possible. And even then, the damage does seem lacking for what you need to do.

Raising the weapon's damage in relative to the weapon's velocity would make it so that actually using the weapon as seemingly intended would be a bit more rewarding

**Remove Normality Relocator's fall speed boost**

I don't really see the point of having that, it boosts your fall speed like crazy. There is no other benefit to it, is there? I mean sure, it's useful to fall fast to make distance between bosses like Yharon but Yharon mostly does projectiles instead of charging at you now which means the priority is to dodge through projectiles, anyway who needs RoD's speed boost when you can just use a slime mount.

Another argument to be made here is nobody wants an insane speed boost in tight spaces since you may lose control and collide with any projectiles nearby to you so there's that.

**Allow Draedon’s Heart to be acquired earlier in progression**

?

Currently, the main accessories that make up Draedon’s Heart can all be acquired from any treasure bag in revengeance mode, meaning you can get all of them pre hardmode. Despite this, you have to wait until after not only pre-hm, but hardmode and the DoG’s defeat to actually craft them together. This tier placement means it also has to compete with the other accessories you get from the defeat of DoG, which Draedon’s Heart...doesn’t really do the best at. Most players really only use it for the ability to generate rage before a fight, instead of using it as an actual accessory.
Thus, I suggest allowing the player to obtain Draedon’s Heart some time earlier, giving less delay on crafting the three pieces together, and making it generally more useful without reworking it dramatically.

**Give Perforator worms VERY HIGH pierce resistance upon spawning to prevent instantly evaporating

       Perforator worms in the current patch are very easy to kill due to the nature of how worm AI spawns and the lack of piercing resistance. Giving Perforators pierce resistance will better balance the fight; especially in cases when the player builds up adrenaline in the Hive phases of the fight to use once the worm spawns in. This will also give consistency with other worms bosses/minions and should prevent cheesing of the worms

Make the Dryad's Blessing buff scale with progression

❔ : In the earlygame, Dryad's Blessing is an amazing buff that can turn the tide in battle. However, as the game progresses, the Dryad's blessing buff loses it's usefulness as the decision on what to fill buff slots with gets more difficult. Increasing the buff's strength as the player progresses through the game will let the Dryad's Blessing buff stay relevant in comparison to Calamity's plethora of new and exciting buffs. For reference the Dryad's Blessing currently provides +8 defense , +50% thorns effect and +3 health per second. (Thanks to @clear barn for helping me with the wording).

**Rework Raider's Talisman effect so that the effect is temporary but one can get the cap faster.**

Raider's Talisman effect can be potentially powerful, but with the way it works right now (tedious stacking on crits that lasts until you die) means that you can just farm King Slime to fully stack the effect before every boss fights, which is tedious, but somewhat effective.

Reworking the accessory (and its inherited effect on Nanotech) to make the stacks decay to time of not dealing critical hits (instead of resetting the stacks on death) would make the accessory more dynamic for its intention, and less tedious to use to its potential.

This could also come with a stack buff to avoid tediously long commitment on stacking, and even higher stack buff of stealth strikes, so that the accessory can be way easier to be stacked on stealth strikes.

**Rework the Redtide Sword to be more melee-oriented.**

❔
Virtually the only reason people have ever cared about this weapon is because of its on-swing projectile, which gives you about the same damage output as hittin' with the sword itself, but with more overall hits and a far lower risk factor, even despite its projectile's short range. Reworkin' the weapon to be more focused on the sword, with the projectile being a little bonus for lower but safer damage, woud help to solidify its status more as a melee weapon rather than what is effectively a staff that looks like a sword.
Here are some examples for how this could be done:

Stealth strike dmg bonus scaling down to faster regen is meant to balance the damage in later stages of the game where there are more options to increase stealth regen. Current Stealth Strike damage would be for the current fastest stealth regen.

**Include Bloodflare Core into Core of the Blood God's recipe, and make the acc inherit a weaker effect of Bloodflare Core from contact damage only.**

After the nerf that's happening with Core of the Blood God, it simply doesn't have anything unique and is just bland now. Bloodflare Core, on the other hand, got a very interesting rework that makes it extremely viable for tank builds.

Returning Bloodflare Core (along with its weaker, new effect) into CotBG's new recipe would make Core of the Blood God actually worth using for, as most of its effects are relatively negligible.

In regards to the effects themselves, +8% damage and DR are rather negligible at best, considering other stuff you can get at that point. Bonus HP might be the best thing CotBG has, but it's just something that's "alright". And Flesh Totem's effect, as nice as it might be, is competing hard with Asgardian Aegis' ram, since on the same boss both accessories excel on (Yharon), Asgardian Aegis performs significantly better with only a bit of learning curve.

To top them all off, it's one of the mediocre "combine these accessories for an amalgam of their weakened effects", which would make the accessory rather bland. Hence why Bloodflare Core buff was well received, because it's actually interesting and potentially powerful at the same time.

I feel like this addition could also help with removing the annoyance of natural pirate invasions/goblin armies, by having the goblin summoner/flying dutchman drop lore items to disable nautral event spawns.

**Remove Stormlions**

Stormlion Mandible is used only in few item, two of which could be easily replaced by Victory Shards or Victide Bars, and summon item can be transferred to Cnidrion, so existence of this enemy is already questionable (as it will drop nothing and therefore will be just a variation of antlion) and unnecessary, as Desert Scourge is no longer blue and doesn't have any electricity-related attack so it doesn't make sense now to use storm materials for summoning the boss.

Stormlions are pretty much relics of the past, when Calamity was trying to have a lot of niche materials and enemies for variety.

**Give the lore item for the blood moon a purpose**

I feel like the lore item for the blood moon has potential to be a actual working lore item, as of right now it’s just a item to describe something with no effect on gameplay or the player, my suggestion is that maybe it could do something such as buffing the enemies in a blood moon for better drops or money, or it can increase the spawn rates even further for item farming or to get rare enemies more efficiently, or it could even be anything, I just think the item deserves the same treatment as with most lore items, and it is as of right now kind of worthless to kill the lunatic cultist in the blood moon for just a item with lore and no effect.

**Buff The Base Damage of Midnight Sun Beacon, But Nerf The Fire-Rate of Its Bullets**

The Midnight Sun Beacon is a Post-Darksun summon weapon that has 2 fire modes that it automatically cycles through- it rapidly shoots bullets or fires a slow deathray similar to the Lunar Portal Staff. Through testing, the DPS of the bullets is 2-3x times greater than the deathray. Not only that, but the deathray is slow and will commonly miss their targets. This means that while the bullets are incredibly OP and damaging, the beam is pretty bad. Increasing the base damage of the weapon would actually make the deathray useful, while lowering the fire-rate of the bullets makes them less ridiculously OP.

For reference, with NO buffs, the Midnight Sun Beacon got a ~2:50 Yharon kill, while with the same setup the Yharon Kindle Staff only got to 50% Phase 2 with 2:50.

**Allow Soma Prime to use other bullet types**

A major part of the fun behind being a ranged character is having the freedom of choosing what ammo type to use for a given situation.
The Soma, unlike Svantechnical and Voidragon, does not allow for this kind of freedom, as it automagically converts all bullets into high-velocity bullets.
I personally think the Soma is alot more frustrating compared to other ranged weapons that convert all ammo into a certain type, as it is converting them into a fairly plain type of bullet and not something truly unique to the gun itself. It being at the pinnacle of Calamity progression also further exacerbates my frustration with the gun.
Obviously if one wishes to, they can still use high-velocity bullets on the Soma, just as well as they can on any other gun, but the important thing is you have the choice to use other ammo types.

**Allow mages to have an early game accessory to help with mana regen**

Why, mana regen is very slow while you are moving, and you will not have a mana regen potion every time you are fighting a boss, because as we say we are excluding QoL mods so you are going to have to farm for stars, daybloom, and moonglow so you can have good mana regen, this shouldn't feel restricting. So by having accessories that can do that like nature's gift increasing mana regen can help early game mages in actually progressing because 1/2 of pre hardmode is spent collecting stars and using them for mana crystals. This feels frustrating and you should be able to use magic weapons without having max mana.

**Change Ball and Chain to be a vanity item that can be used to disable certain dashes on an accessory alongside its current "favorite" system.**

The new Ball and Chain is a neat alternative to the old visibility toggle for dashes. One problem is that it disables all dashes from equipment when favorited. Sometimes we could want to get certain effects from a dash accessory, but its dash is far inferior to the other dash from another accessory the player has (take Evasion Scarf for true melee players when they already got Elysian Aegis for dashing).

Making Ball and Chain additionally into a vanity accessory (disabling the dash of an accessory slotted beside Ball and Chain) alongside its current function would make dash toggle a lot more flexible, as we can just pinpoint what we wanted to disable easier.

***Create an explosive that only destroys tiles and ignores walls.***

In Calamity, there are three specific biomes where the creation of reasonably large arenas that must be in that specific biome is necessary; the dungeon, the underworld, and the jungle. The dungeon and the jungle are far more restrictive than the underworld, as it can be difficult to excavate a large space without explosives, which destroy the very walls that make that arena 'part of the biome'. Adding this explosive might not completely alleviate the need to get unsafe walls in large quantities, but it'd definitely help.

This means that mage players have to gather the materials for 3 total SSV, which is a grind and a heavy time consuming process. Replacing SSV with a Spell Tome (the one the Wizard sells) would provide the reasoning for Apotheosis being a book, and help make Apotheosis' crafting more concise and fitting.

**Change the style of the Calamity Boss Health Bar, and allow it to be modified in size and position**

?

The current Calamity boss health bar is a reference to Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance's health bar. However the sleek, metal style of it clashes heavily with the normal Terraria look.
Additionally, the boss health bar is in the corner of the screen, very small and nowhere near where the player would actually want to look in a boss fight. This means that the player has another thing to focus on in boss fights, in addition to their own position, the bosses' position, and projectiles/minions.

Changing the style of the boss health bar would help make it look nicer in the terraria UI, and allowing the player to change the size and position of it would allow for more choice in where they want it.

**Add more Vanity**

?

Calamity adds around 28 armor sets, and content in practically every aspect of Terraria. However, it adds a single vanity set (that is just a old version of an armor set). The closest you could get is using armor sets as vanity which, while all of them look good visually, aren't too good for any type of casual look like the clown vanity set or anything similar in vanilla Terraria.
The only vanity items are two dedicated items (one an accessory, and one a cloak), boss masks, and dyes and hair dyes. Dyes are an interesting point, as it shows support for vanity in Calamity, yet there aren't more vanity items of any kind.
Adding more vanity items and sets would help fill out the one aspect Calamity only partially addresses with dyes.

On top of that, it gives increased mana for mage players. So therefore, just like how every rogue armor gives stealth, it should have rogue stealth for rogue players.

Allowing Relic of Convergence to grant damage reduction when channeled (with increased bonus the closer the item is to being fully channeled) by the player would make the Relic a bit more worthwhile to use, as it's already not allowing you to attack for most classes, AND slowing you down in the process of channeling.

**Implement a separate theme for nighttime Providence**

The Providence fight has two variants. The regular fight takes place during the day, while the nighttime fight happens, well, during the night. Now I know what you're all thinking. "Why do we need a separate theme for nighttime Providence? The regular theme is good enough." To answer this question, we must ask these other questions-
Why does the final tier of the Acid Rain have it's separate theme? The regular one is goo. Why does Devourer of Gods' second phase have a different theme from the first? Why does Yharon's second phase have its own individual theme?
The answer to all three of these questions is simple. It's different. In the Acid Rain, stronger enemies spawn. The Old Duke spawns. It's notably different. Devourer of Gods' second phase is very different from the first. He changes forms. Yharon Phase 2 has a different theme because Yharon has become stronger.
The reason why nighttime Providence should have a separate theme is because it's a very different fight than the daytime version. The regular theme is fit for the daytime. We should have a separate theme that still fits Providence, but is more suited for nighttime.

And it's kind of a bummer when I have to stick with a gun that shoots magical beams of cute glitter.

**Rebrand classless support weapons like Golden Gun or Aestheticus as Summoner Support Weapons**

?

Classless support weapons make no sense. For things like the Golden Gun, it supposedly exists to give people the option to apply a certain debuff as any class, but the problem is that every class besides summoner already has a way to apply said debuffs. Melee and Rogue have flasks, Ranger has ammo types, and Mage has books like Golden Shower and Cursed Inferno. This means that due to players preferring to stick to a single class, the only class that uses these weapons are Summoners, because they have no other way. You've never seen a Ranger using Aestheticus, because they'd just rather use something like Phoenix Blaster that's actually their class.

Thus, I propose changing all of these classless support weapons to Summoner Support Weapons, giving them a more purposeful place in the mod.

**Change the RE guns --- the Magnum (and its upgrades), the Bazooka, and the Hydra --- as follows:**

Make them not consume ammunition, reduce their damage significantly, and give them a damage multiplier against bosses. They keep their limited uses during boss fights.

❔
Specification aside, the biggest issue with the RE guns is that because of their limited uses during boss fights and limited ammunition, their use case is so incredibly niche that most people will simply never use them out of fear for wasting their limited shots (no, really, almost nobody uses these guns). It's kind of upsetting, too, because they're really satisfying weapons --- they're held back by the fact that they're useless if you go through all their ammo, making you too afraid of wasting that ammo to use or even really craft them. Reworking them in the fashion described above would eliminate this problem without really changing the way the guns work, as well as allowing the mostly-arbitrary ammunition they take to be removed without any major losses.

More details for specific accessories in the document, but a generous amount of accessories are really bad.
Some of them are just not useful for where they are in progression, such as Aero Stone amongst the vast number of jump speed boosts in pre-hm or Leviathan Ambergris's water boosts when you have no reason to be in water.
Some are just not good in general, like Old Die or Thief's Dime, which both are relatively unnoticeable. There's also HoTE materials which are either passed off as just materials, or just not used because they don't give good stats.
There's also things that are too situational, like Old Duke's Scales which give a 18% damage buff and 9% crit buff when under 25% hp.
Accessory slots are very limited in Calamity, so giving some buffs or reworks to these items would make it reasonable to actually use them, instead of just completely ignoring their existence in your playthroughs.

**improve the look of calamity healthbars and add more configs for it.**

at the moment there isn't a lot of customization for the healthbars, and they don't look bad but not great either.
the healthbars currently lack in shading and hue-shifting, which are two crucial parts of good spritework. my suggestion is to revise the colors and shading for them a bit.
they don't utilize pixels either which clashes heavily with the game's style, so that should be fixed immediately

another part of this suggestion was to add more configs for the healthbars, as to suit everybody's preferences.
the healthbar design is a reference to Metal Gear Rising, but something i've noticed is that the location of the health percentage and boss name have been swapped, and i don't see why since it doesn't look better in my opinion.
the reason i'm saying this should be a config and not a change is because more customization is better, right?

edit: devs don't want to add too many configs, but i'd suggest making it a change instead since fixing their locations improves the design by a small amount, and i'm hopefully not the only person who believes this.

**Remove melee variant of Yharon's Detonating Flames.**

These little buggers serve nothing but as a relatively invisible annoyances. The melee variant can hit for over half of Yharon's contact damage in Death mode with way smaller size. These Detonating Flames either die relatively quickly to ranged weapons or can harass freely without the player able to notice it most of the time.

Leaving only the fireball variant of Detonating Flames would make it so that there are less crazy contact damage specifically from an NPC just slightly bigger than the player.

**Make Elemental Excalibur's true melee hits a lot more interesting instead of just healing the player.**

Elemental Excalibur might be one of the relatively blandest Shadowspec true melee weapon. The projectiles are alright, swapping between colors per swing, but its true melee is quite bland, which does double listed damage and heals on hits (which frankly Earth does way better at the latter).

Buffing the weapon's true melee would make it possibly more interesting to use and can keep up with other true melee weapons you can get around that point (Murasama, Animus and Earth).

The reason for that to exist is because as stated earlier those are the main melee weapons, also correct me if I'm wrong but true melee doesn't have a playthrough-long weapon yet and giving those weapons a true melee attack would fix that

**Add an option where if you set the roverdrive accessory as invisible then the shield also becomes invisible**

The roverdrive accessory covers up your player too much in my opinion. Sometimes if I want to see how a certain vanity looks, the roverdrive shield covers up my player and it becomes annoying because I have to wait like 15 seconds for it to go away, so I usually just take the accessory off so it doesn't get in the way. I think that if you set it to invisible in the equipment slot it should make the shield invisible.

**Give Supreme Calamitas a special chat message for when the fight is completed without taking any hits, and similarly for when the player dies without dealing any damage**

It seems to fit her personality, being very talkative and noteworthy of certain events throughout the fight. She has a special chat message for when she is beaten on the first attempt, and third, so why not give her one for when she is beaten without taking damage? It could also give players that extra bit of satisfaction if they had been grinding for a no hit.

Similarly, if the fight is lost without dealing any damage, sCal could send a message mocking the player like she already does throughout the fight.

Both of these changes seem to fit perfectly with sCal’s already established personality, and could add that extra bit of fun to the fight.

Reduce frequency of **Guide Voodoo Doll spawn rate**.

Prepping hell for the Wall of Flesh becomes a big pain/annoyance rather than a fun challenge whilst making a hell bridge for movement due to it being constantly being spawned by the high spawn rate of Voodoo Doll demons. A spawn reduction of the dolls or a change in the mechanics of how the wall gets spawned. For an example, the wall can only be spawned when the guide is in hell in a home with the edition of the doll being thrown in lava. This would allow an extra challenge, even if an easy one, to change how the wall is prepared for whilst tackling the high spawn rate.

Hope this sits well with everyone and is not a previously posted, dealt with, suggestion.

**Reduce the duration of DoG's portals on its last subphase.**

The lingering duration for DoG's portals is relatively fine for most of the fight, but in my experience of fighting the boss, the duration of the portals harm the pace of the boss' last subphase, where it's supposed to go nuts and ceasing its laser grids for attempts of direct hits.

Reducing the duration of DoG's portals significantly in its last subphase would make the boss feel actually exciting at its last moments, and can actually represent its berserk state at that moment.

**Give DoG a few maneuvers similar to Aquatic Scourge’s spin and Desert Scourge’s lunge**

?

Desert Scourge recently received a new lunge attack in all modes, that makes his fight a lot more challenging and intriguing, as you now have to plan around this and actively react to it instead of just staying on a platform above the ground. Aquatic Scourge also has a maneuver like this, his spin. DoG though, doesn’t really have any maneuvers that threaten the player, except for using portals to catch up with the player when either they get too far from him or he gets too far from them. The portals are something, but it doesn’t make for much of an active threat like Desert Scourge’s lunge, and mostly prevent cheese/keep the fight’s pace up. Adding maneuvers that would endanger the player would help provide more of a threat to the player, and make the fight more interesting and less boring overall.

**End the DoG Fight If The Player Dies After Phase 1 is Defeated**

Right now, if the player somehow dies (Eg: Cosmic Guardians or debuffs) after they defeat Phase 1 DoG, the fight will not end and the transition to Phase 2 will go ahead. Normally Adrenaline is maintained during the transition, suggesting that it is in fact part of the boss fight. Phase 2 DoG spawning can be very confusing on the player's part as they just died, but DoG Phase 2 spawns anyway and kills them again resulting in another 15 second wait. Otherwise, if the player does manage to defeat the boss, it can feel 'cheap' or 'cheesy'. By making the boss fight stop after the player dies in the transition will make the fight consistent with every other boss where the boss despawns regardless of when you die.

**Skeletron in Boss Rush resummons a set of 2 hands instead of 4**

The reason for this is because the Skeletron fight in Boss Rush is mostly taken up time-wise in destroying the hands, which is normally okay but the hands themselves can be a bit shifty, janky and hard to hit in their movement. This is also attributed by the fact you normally do not want to get too close to BR bossess because of the damage they deal. Furthermore, since Skeletron outside of BR ends up resummoning a pair of 2 hands, taking up much like it's Death mode variant. The incorporation of 4 hands resummoning in Boss Rush also feels to be a bit of an inconvenience rather than a difficulty.

**Differentiate Phantoplasm from Ectoplasm**

?

For all intents and purposes, Phantoplasm can be considered a copy paste of ectoplasm. Most players don't even recognize the fact that Overloaded Soldiers and Phantom Debris exist, and so most players just visit the dungeon to kill spirits of the dead to gather a material similar in color to the creatures they just killed. With ectoplasm, it's blue-ish and post-plant. With phantoplasm, it's red-ish and post-ml. There's also the usage in mage materials, spectre gear for ectoplasm, and a mana upgrade and supreme mana pots for phantoplasm. They're so similar that it's hard to blame people for confusing them. They both even end with plasm.

However, due to the intriguing placement and design of Overloaded Soldiers and Phantom Debris, I wouldn't suggest removing these two enemies entirely for being forgettable. Instead, I would move the spirits normally only found Post Moon Lord to Post-LC, and Overloaded Soldiers and Phantom Debris to Post-ML instead. This would show the angry souls from the dungeon starting to seep out into the world with the defeat of moon lord, and could even be expanded upon with more enemies in different locations. This would also have to come with more tweaks to show more of a difference between the materials.

tl;dr phantoplasm could be a lot more cool, but is currently just ectoplasm 2.0, calamity material edition. I suggest expanding upon it leaking from the dungeon more.

Adjust Catacylmini attacks in Enntropy's Vigil

This eye struggles to hit fast moving targets most of the times, and is the main reason why I feel the Enntropy's Vigil is a bit underpowered in boss fights. Sure it can provide great dps against stationary ones but you'll always be picking the dormant brimseeker until you get a better summoning weapon just because Cataclymini is blind af it can't even hit a moving planter with a flamethrower. What I'm saying is that, buff or adjust the flames of Cataclymini, like to what Spazmamini from the Optic Staff is, at least that guy can hit his flames well.

I just don't really see the use of Enntropy's Vigil if you can get a better consistent weapon that is that is supposedly weaker, but still outperforms it in most boss battles. The bosses are so fast and hurts so much when they ram you, so going in close range with summoner armor is almost always bad, sometimes it works yeah but most of the time, you'll be kiting the boss and dodging it's attacks while swinging your staff, and with the entropy vigil, it just seems so underwhelming and dissapointing since the Brimstone Seeker and even the deepstea staff outperforms it in literally every boss battle I've used it to. The consistent damage that us summoner players that are expecting from such summons just isn't there from the Enntropy's Vigil. Or maybe I'm just dumb and it actually hits, sorry if it is the case but I really think it's underpowered in its current state rn.

**Add more dart weapons both before and beyond the Charged Dart Blaster**

Dart weapons are some of the most fun and unique weapons in Terraria. However, there are very few of them, 5 to be exact. The CDB just gets upgraded into the Shredder, a non-dart weapon, which doesn't fit the point of upgrades at all. Instead of upgrading into a standard gun, the CDB should be upgraded into it's own line of dart weapons. In addition, more dart weapons should be added to flesh out prehardmode (only two options currently), and in hardmode to make the progression more smooth.

Sea Serpents are obnoxious when trying to kill a Giant Clam in early Hardmode as they stick near the player (which makes them very hard to despawn), ignore blocks and have very high health for a common mob, which most early Hardmode players will struggle to kill to some degree. They have the habit of interfering with Giant Clam fights and often ruin them, because even if you kill a Serpent, another one can quickly spawn before the Clamity debuff kicks in. Making them spawn less commonly or change their behavior could partially ease the annoyance.

**Add true melee damage bonus to werewolf form given by Moon Charm (and its upgrades).**

Werewolf form is a relatively good all around melee boost for the class, having minor boosts to various stats. Thing is, this accessory was a bit geared towards projectile melee (which is what vanilla melee is in Hardmode anyways), and the damage boost does feel a bit too insignificant in the case of true melee.

Adding true melee damage bonus to werewolf form would make it a lot more favorable to be used for close range melee, which is what werewolves are usually doing. Not only that, it'd also make its final upgrade, Celestial Shell, last a bit longer to use for true melee until you can get the spicy post-Providence true melee accessories (like Samurai Badge and Yharim's Insignia).

**Rework Amidias' Trident to be more melee-focused.**

This weapon is...a nightmare, to put it lightly, for enemies and testers alike. It fires a projectile that homes in on enemies, ignores tiles outright, produces light, deals full damage...the whole nine. It's actually so ungodly good that it's been nerfed 5 or 6 distinct times and it's STILL a wonderful choice for just about anything because it does everything everybody else does and then some. The weapon's honestly go no business bein' a melee weapon, and with how powerful its projectiles are it could really use some major changes.
Some concepts for how to do this include the following:

Weakening the whirlpool significantly + adding a true strike effect.
Removing the whirlpool outright and adding some unique melee-based feature in its place.
Increasing the Trident's range and heavily decreasing the lifespan of its whirlpools.

***Nerf the hm Giant clam***

As it is, the hardmode giant clam takes way too long to kill, it's attacks deal way too much damage, and the way the attacks are designed don't fit at all with the cramped terrain of the sunken sea, requiring good horizontal and vertical speed. Not to mention they don't fit the early hm difficulty, cryogen, mechs, and basically any early hm boss is are all easier than what is supposed to be a miniboss. You can also get it's weapons without fighting it, which makes attempting to defeat it even more pointless, and it doesn't help when you get killed by a clam that you have to wait a whole minute to fight it again, since its spawns very rarely, and there's no way of summoning it, and even a sea serpent that you accidentally hit which spawned before the clam can just randomly interfere and make it even more frustrating.

I suggest nerfing the projectile speed, the size of all attacks, nerfing the amount of pearls in the pearl rain and removing the pearl shot directly at the player, as well as making the pearl burst bounce 1-3 times on blocks instead of travelling through tiles

The sunken sea is a biome with a peaceful and calm aesthetic. This is reinforced by enemies not attacking until being attacked, the music, and the rusted bell pet item being obtained through catching ghost bells with a bug net. The way rusted bell is obtained is very interesting and could be expanded for more items in the sunken sea.

This would maintain the peace of the biome, since currently you end of shattering that for fighting random sea creatures. It would also fit how the biome is composed of sea animals that seemingly have no real interest in fighting you. It could also create variety in how you obtain items, instead of it being kill enemy for weapon. It could also create more engaging mechanics and encourage a more interesting playstyle. It can encourage the player to play slowly and carefully to obtain items. It could engage the player in the game with more in depth mechanics. It would make the world and creatures feel more alive.

**Remove the current mechanic of the Resident Evil guns and change them into regular ranged weapons**

The current limited use high risk/reward system is fundamentally flawed and severely limits how often the weapons are ever used.

The weapons are only worthwhile to use against the last bosses in the game. Given the fact that the ammo is limited in supply, players are naturally only going to use them against the bosses where they get the best value out of every shot. This leaves two bosses where the guns could ever see viable use, Yharon and SCal, and the problem will only get worse as more bosses are added.
Many players are too apprehensive to make use of the weapons. These weapons are insanely powerful and valuable, meaning that some players are simply too nervous to use them out of fear of running out of their precious ammo. As long as the ammunition is limited in a playthrough, players won’t feel inclined to risk it.

Unfortunately, neither of these issues can be remedied because they are an inherent part of anything that follows a similar system of use (see Too Awesome to Use Syndrome, Purified Jam). Therefore, to ensure that the guns receive the love they deserve, they should be changed into standard weapons. I’ll leave the specifics of what the weapons should do if changed up to the discretion of the devs.

Giving a sizable amount to DR when Drataliornus is at full charge would make the player a bit enticed to charge the weapon all the way to maximum.

I seldom ever see good opportunities as is for using stealth strikes except in a handful of scenarios, which mostly involve mobs as opposed to bosses (when I feel stealth strikes should benefit most). In an attempt to benefit more from stealth strikes with additional stealth generation I still consistently do better with spamming attacks, which wastes the benefits of stealth generation (there are accessories that dedicated to the task that do much better as is) and makes it simply preferable to choose menacing over silent. Also, damage becomes an important priority when overcoming the defences of the more resilient enemies and in turn improves the effectiveness of crits. I want to have genuine reason to pick one or the other rather than pick a superior alternative every time because it is virtually the only correct choice.

Add the earth elemental in the heart of the elements

The Earth elementals on the current version of the mod, serve no purpose other than provide the player with arid artifacts, to summon a sandstorm, and be a nuisance to the player, since the weapons provided are quickly outclassed and ditched away.
By giving him a designated accessory drop, he would be less of a bother for players that are underground, especially early hardmode players, since it's not worth it to fight them.
On the same note, adding such item into the Heart of the Elements, he would be more relevant to the progression of the mod overall, since he already has an influence on the HotE's acquiring, by facilitating the spawn of sandstorms, so why not fully add him in?

Not only that, Steampunker also sells mech boss spawners at 20 gold each (after specific mech bosses are defeated), while you need 45 gold worth of Enchanted Metals to craft a single mech boss spawner.

Removing the material outright would make the primarily useless material help reducing overall material bloat in the long run.

**Change Sunken Sea World Generation**

After watching over 500 worlds generate (thanks World Previewer mod), and after visiting the Sunken Sea many, many times I have noticed a few key problems with the generation of this biome. Starting off with the most important one the Sunken Sea has a tendency to drain water into nearby caves. Another major issue is that if the sunken sea generates low enough its water turns into lava. Adding a shell around the sunken sea could help it not drain water everywhere.

Give Rogue stealth while wearing demonshade armor

Seeing as this is the endgame armor, it shouldn't lack the main aspect of one of the classes. First, it has a summon that comes a long with it just like how many summoner armors come with a summon. Also, it gives a melee speed boost for melee players. On top of that, it gives increased mana for mage players. So therefore, just like how every rogue armor gives stealth, it should have rogue stealth for rogue players. Even though rogue stealth strikes are not the best, it is nice to gain even a portion of damage for not attacking for a time

Remove the need for dye materials when crafting health upgrades

Pretty self-explanatory, I like how it gives a practical use to the dye materials (orange bloodroot, teal mushroom, etc) but it is absolutely annoying whenever you happen to lack any of these materials, especially since there isn't many good ways to get them w/o lots of time and luck. It was so much easier and convenient back when we only needed the materials we got by simply progressing. Currently missing a teal mushroom and it's killing me.|

Give Onyxia's Onyx shards abit more range

Onyxia is a post-yharon phase 1 so this weapon is supposed to be used against yharon in fighting him until phase 2 but I find it hard to use especially when the range of the onyx shards are so short.
most guns's that shoots projectiles doesn't relay heavily on the project's but the projectile helps the complement the gun itself
But in onyxia's situation you can't use the most of the onyx shard against Yharon because of how mobile the boss is and going closer to close the gap on how short the range of the onyx shards will lead to alot of unnecessary hits and eventually just killing you.
So the gist of all this is that onyxia's short range shards make it hard to be viable because the boss that the gun was made against it counters its entire speciallty.

**Move fathom swarmer armor to post Aquatic scourge.**

Fathom swarmer armor is at a place in progression where it is not needed and where it is outclassed by other armors. Fathom swarmer acts as a tanky summoner armor, giving high def and some dr, with a more minor role as an utility armor for abyss exploration. Tiki armor, obtained one boss later, also acts as an tanky armor, giving large boosts to defensive stats if you wear it with tiki wings. However, tiki is simply better than fathom swarmer. They give similar minion damage buffs, but tiki gives 2 more max minions. Defensively, tiki gains 18 defense from its bonus with wings, giving it 53 defense vs swarmer’s 47, tiki gives 10% dr vs fathom swarmers 12, but tiki also gives 3hp/sec life regen. Buffing swarmer might simply make tiki useless, so it’s better to move it away from this point in progression. Making it post aquatic scourge is a good choice, as it is thematically appropriate due to as being an ocean-themed boss. It would provide a tanky armor for summoners while allowing spider to remain viable as a damage focused alternative.

**A effect that appears around players in multiplayer to help with boss predictability**

A thing about multiplayer in calamity is it can make bosses unpredictable, such as in the case of bosses like DoG, Calamitas, or even Old Duke. this is due to some attacks requiring fast action but it can be difficult to determine who it's targeting such as trying to tell who the boss will do it's dash attack at and can result in some clashes with non targeted players and the boss
A solution could be a red ring like effect that would appear surrounding the player that could indicate who the boss is mainly focusing on for it's attacks.

An example could be DoG is offscreen and is coming back around for a attack, but one of the players has the red ring appear around them indicating DoG has their attention for the attack so they can have more of a idea where DoG is planning on coming through so the player that is not being targeted wont be ambushed out of no where because they thought they had the boss's attention

**Make the Biome Chest weapons craftable**

Right now, only one of these weapons can ever exist in a world. If you accidentally trash or sell one, then the only way to retrieve it is to generate an entirely new world. It's currently impossible for multiplayer characters to get another biome weapon. And for those with collectors anxiety, it's currently impossible to have both the Biome weapons and their upgrades.

In the spirit of Calamity, all weapons and items should be available in one world without having to generate a new one. So I suggest that a crafting recipe for each Biome weapon be added. To make things simple, it would make sense to include the respective Biome key in each recipe, along with a Temple key (to ensure the weapons remain locked behind Plantera).

Making armageddon turn boss summons into non-consumeables would allow players to keep trying as many times as they wish without having to either go back and forth to farm or just make massive amount of boss summons.

Defeated boss summons would be consumed so they cant be farmed more easily in later stages of the game.

**Make teratoma/bloody worm food sold by dryad after defeating perforators and hive mind respectively (for consistency)**

Right now for e.g. in a crimson world, once you defeat perforators, the dryad only sells bloody worm food and rotten brain (in expert), but not teratoma. However, for the case of BoC, after defeating BoC you can buy bloody spine, worm scarf (in expert) and worm food. Vice versa for corruption evil bosses.

For the sake of consistency and convenience, it would be better if the dryad sells teratoma/bloody worm food in the case where the opposite calamity evil boss in a world is defeated, so players need not create another world to fight the opposite evil boss. Certain drops are different between hive mind and perforators, so it would benefit general gameplay.

**Remove blackened screen debuff when exiting Providence's range, whereby Damage Over Time occurs**

The DOT is a deterrent in and of itself. The blackened screen only seeks to prevent the player from fixing their mistake and returning inside Provi's range. This issue is most exacerbated in Provi's final phase when all the chicken balls are defeated. When she sends out her faster negative health attacks, it's difficult to re-enter Provi's range when the screen is blackened and the attacks are being sent at fast speeds; I end up running into them, unable to dodge as I couldn't see them, leading to frustration. I don't know if this is an issue outside of Death Mode (the mode I'm playing in), but I request that it's addressed nonetheless.

**Make the candles sold by the Drunk Princess consistent with all other candles, in how they can be toggled with wire**

For most placeable buff stations such as the campfire, and also all candles in the game within calamity and vanilla, one can toggle their effects on and off, allowing control over greater/lesser spawn rates, for instance. In calamity, the chaos and tranquility candles both carry over the trait from vanilla, but the drunk princess' other status effect inducing candles do not. Not only would changing this be valuable for consistency, but additionally having togglable buffs to wing flight time, for instance, could be a very valuable tool for map makers, where a section of a map is only accessible once the player finds a secret and the weightless candle is turned on.

There's this precedent with vanilla that emphasizes these damage modifiers (those being Jagged, Spiked, Angry and Menacing) over literally every other acc modifiers, making these damage modifiers overshadowed others by a long shot.

**Tie Bloodstone to Polterghast**

Right now, the only major armor sets available before you realistically beat Providence are the Luminite sets, which severly limits the how the player wishes to progress. You make Bloodstone cores with phantoplasm and make Bloodflare armor with Ruinous souls so I think it makes more sense to make bloodstone post-polterghast. So much happens after the player defeats Providence, Divine Geode and Uelibloom upgrades become available, the Rune of Kos bosses are fought, Bloodstone currently falls by the wayside.

Allowing Bloodstone to be obtained after beating Polterghast would fix many of these issues, as it would allow the player to make a choice between fighting Polterghast and getting a new armor and weapon set before going against Providence.

**Remove Infected Armor Plating from crafting of T3 Arsenal weapons.**

The addition of Infected Armor Plating (on top of existing Life Alloys) to T3 Arsenal weapons is pretty jarring, as it's the only tier of Arsenal weapon needing a relatively optional boss to be defeated. This is unlike other tiers, which are generally accessible after beating the "rich" bosses that essentially boost progression by a substantial amount (Hive Mind / Perfs for T1, any mechs for T2, Providence for T4, and Yharon for T5).

Additionally, the Plaguebringer Goliath is a huge gap in difficulty compared to other post Golem boss, and the T3 Arsenal weapons don't exactly reflect that too well.

Removing Infected Armor Plating from T3 Arsenal weapon crafting would make the tier a bit more consistent to other tiers, while also making the tier a bit more accessible.

Transforming it in a regular free-dash item would not only make it much more usable, but would also allow Rogues to give up on overused accessories such as the Asgard's Valor / Statis Belt accessory lines and built more focused loadouts (also, having to dedicate a button for a single dash is rather awkward).

*Expanding DoG's amount attacks.*

Often DoG has been said to be very easy to beat. DoG is easy when I comes dodging . As one keeps fighting DoG , his moves become more readable to the player meaning easy dodging. Not only that, it could bore the player from doing the same thing repetitively. In worm phase, DoG is very easy as all the player has to do is bait him in then teleport out of reach. In laser phase, DoG could be a bit more of a challenge to get it down pat (especially if in poor positioning) but it is still as simple as learning to dodge. He lacks much unpredictably which makes it easy for the player. This what he needs. I have a few things in mind:

DoG makes subsequent dashes toward the player from the portals.
DoG attacks if the player moves.
Cosmic servants are constantly flung in the direction of the player.
Combines lasers and portals to throw off player a bit.

** the earth elemental should replace the regular sand elemental in the HotE**

Its weird you have a dedicated earth elemental with a unique sprite but opted for reusing another sand elemental. Generally i think it be better to have all the "elements" in the HoTE since thats the point. Have the earth elemental replace the regular sand elemental would be clever without overloading the screen with elementals (hence making it different than the suggestion to add more elementals to the HoTE), while also keeping 1 elemental per element (if you want to consider rocks different from sand anyway)

This also helps you get away from the "Smexy element waifu" shtick, as now it isnt just a set of them and has a male (im gonna assume a pile of rocks is a dude) looking elemental. as it seems especially with the brimstone elemental resprite, your trying to move away from that idea

that might seem like a downgrade since you lose the sand elementals tornados
but that move can be put onto the cloud elemental if they really wanted, especially since cloud elemental doesnt do anything special and just charges towards opponents for attacks.

Accessory modifier overhaul

As we all know, the menacing damage modifier pretty much stands completely above the rest. Calamity has done a great job in my opinion with how it treats the defensive modifiers. I propose that the same treatment should be extended to the other underperforming stat bonuses. They, of course, include movement speed, melee speed, and the arcane modifier. Some ways to improve them could be adding additional effects or simply increasing the amount of the stat bonus.

Here are some concepts to gain interest:
Melee speed: Increase the amount of melee speed or additional melee damage increase or increase to weapon size
Movement speed: Additionally increase jump speed or increase the amount of movement speed given
Arcane: Additionally give a small bonus to magic damage or reduced mana consumption or increased mana regeneration

Note that all of the specific changes mentioned are simply ideas to give an example of how this suggestion could be carried out, and they are not a part of the broader request.

Make Rare Elemental heal without the orbs

It isn't very practical to have to stop moving or run into the healing orbs to get healed. Many later game bosses require faster movement to dodge this attack, making it much harder to be healed by it. I think that the Rare Elemental should heal you without the orbs. You should get the healing automatically.

Remove the selling of Hardmode Post-Plantera Dungeon weapons in favor of massively increasing spawn rates

?

There’s absolutely no reason to farm in the dungeon for anything besides ectoplasm and paladins for their gear, since you can immediately buy all of the weapons that drop randomly from hard to find, rare enemies. Actually increasing the spawn rates of these very rare enemies would force the player to go through some reasonable work to get these weapons, instead of handing it them on a silver platter.

Prohibit suggestions of small, vanilla QoL tweaks that are outside of Calamity's intended domain and are present in other mods of significant size

It would be a good idea to include a special clause in the suggestion "Don't"s document that specifically prohibits small QoL suggestions which are outside of Calamity's intended domain, such as a config option to remove tombstones, or a config option to increase the amount of money the Tax Collector provides. Calamity is a content mod, and the end goal of Calamity is to add new and interesting content and to expand pre-existing content, not to overhaul Terraria as a large amalgam of different minor QoL features. Oftentimes, QoL suggestions are put forth to be voted on which are implemented just fine by other mods (sometimes where the primary purpose of the mod is the QoL improvement), and are not necessary as part of Calamity. It is the responsibility of the end user to install other QoL mods if they want the features offered by them, and Calamity should be left with the job of adding new content, since Calamity's goal is not to overhaul the game.

Make Astrum Deus' body segments not able to trigger Yanmei's Knife effects.

Astrum Deus is the only post-Golem worm boss that is heavily at disadvantage when Yanmei's Knife goes into play. With the way it's stacked at spawn, you can swing Yanmei's Knife at its coiled segments and make it take heavy DoT damage that bypasses its spawn resistance.

Making Deus' body segments not able to trigger Yanmei's Knife would make it so that the boss cannot be melted by the high debuff the weapon gives, regarding its segmented structure and the debuff able to affect each segment.

Plague nuke countdown for goliath phase 2

When the plaguebringer goliath reaches second phase (either in all modes or rev+) It will start an X minute countdown somewhere on the screen after the message that says “Plague nuke armed, preparing for launch.” After those X minutes, if the boss is not killed, it could make the boss send stronger versions of the plague nukes. Or make the boss enraged. Or the timer could also instantly kill the player. I feel like this would make the plaugebringer fight much more fun and intense and will add a little bit of much needed intensity to the fight because I fought it on rev mode for my first time and it was kind of disappointing how easy it was.

**Allow players to lock the color of Profaned Moonlight Dye**

Profaned Moonlight Dye is a beautiful item, and the cycling though colors is just stunning. However, the red/yellow day color scheme and purple/blue night color scheme can't be controlled. It would be a small change to be able to lock the dye to either of its day and night themes as the player wishes, and would allow players to fit the most unique dye in the game to their own wishes.

An idea for how to do this would be a synergy with the Cosmolight. When favorited during a specific time (Day, Night, Sunrise/Sunset), the Cosmolight would lock the Profaned Moonlight Dye to that time's color scheme. (Thanks to @wise radish for the idea)

**Make Reaver Armor a Melee set**

Reaver armor is currently a post-Plantera, multi-headpiece set. The problem with it is that every class but melee has an Armor set for that tier. Ranger has Shroomite, Mage has Spectre and Brimflame, Summoner has Spooky and Fathom Swarmer and Rogue has Umbraphile.

After Chlorophyte and Turtle, Melee has no Armor sets (except Reaver of course) until Beetle and Hydrothermic, which are post-Golem. I suggest making Reaver Armor a Melee Set to fill the gap in Armor progression. The stats would probably be somewhere between Chlorophyte and Hydrothermic. It could even be a True Melee focused set, if that's what the devs want. Also, Necklace of Vexation would become a Melee Accessory, to fit with the Armor.

Rework the silva invulnerability

the current invul's functionality is too heavily focused on the Auric Tesla armour, on being a final revive to fall into, after using the godslayer revive and taking fatal damage.
The issue comes when the Silva armour is the set in use, it being a one time revive, that lowers your max health for as long as the character is alive is a problem, first because of hardcore mode players, second because the godslayer set is a safer option, since the revive is repeatable and doesn't affect the player in a long lasting way, and third is because after the invulnerability, you are likely to be with low health.

My rework idea: give the invulnerability a lengthy cooldown, 2 minutes or something of the sort and a max health regeneration alongside health regen:
The idea is to keep the vulnerable period after the invulnerability in the form of reduced max health, but don't keep this permanent, instead make it unavoidable instead of reducing by damage taken, fully heal the player (400 hp) and slowly recover the max health at 5 each second or something around there. That paired with the cooldown makes the armour set more usable, since it won't permanently nerf your character and armour unless you die, keeps the vulnerability after the invul by keeping the player at 400 hp and recovering the max health can make the Silva armour much more powerful, as it should be for fighting Yharon

**Make Lunatic Cultist do its ritual around the player instead on a fixed position.**

It's not uncommon for a player to be forced to ground down and restore flight time in Lunatic Cultist's fight. Often times it already starts doing ritual up there, which when the boss is at low hp, making it infuriatingly long to reach to Cultist, and losing time to hit the actual boss.

Making the boss do the ritual around the player instead would make the ritual phase much less frustrating, as the player's issue is now just identifying the boss with all the time they have that shouldn't be spent on flying back to the boss.

**Make Bordernadoes despawn after the Yharon fight ends**

Simple, players will most likely to set a spawn point near the Yharon's arena for multiple attempts, not being aware of the bordernadoes can overlap the spawn point. When the player die, they will spawn directly inside the border and get insta kill since the border ignore iframes. In death screen, the player cant press esc to exit the world, so they have to alt+f4 and force close the game. This can either become an inconvenience to them, or worse, potentially bugging tmodloader.

**Rework critical strikes to have functionality past 100% crit chance**

Currently, there is no reason to have crit chance higher than 100%. After that point, adding more crit chance has no effect. I suggest a rework to how critical strikes work past 100%. Here is how I think it should work. So, say a player had a crit chance of 120%. Without this change, you would simply have a 100% to do double damage. With this rework, you would still have a 100% chance to do double damage, but a 20% chance to do triple damage instead. This would benefit the mod as it would encourage different setups later in the game when such critical chance can be achieved, and provide more options for damage modifiers other than menacing, being based on rng more than just a damage boost. If this seems too overpowered, maybe instead make it increase your crit damage by the excess percent.

right now, everything is reflected onto menacing., because of how potent glass cannon is rn. perhaps adding different boosts from accesories, such as maybe dodge chance, adrenaline retention (e.g. +250 adrenaline minumum after being hit), rage increase from true melee, lifesteal, etc. could help make accesory reforges much more unique, and the meta on them change. ofc these are only suggestions, and some are good, whilst others bad, and the devs could prob think of more. i would also recomend doing a survey if you do this.

**Make the Drill Containment unit scale to your highest Mining Power tool**

At the point in the game you can get the tool, you basically have the end level mining equipment. This kinda makes the mount worthless in that aspect as it cant help mine up any of the later game post-ml ores. Having it scale with your tool like block switching does in 1.4 would breathe proper life into the mount in calamity. Not to mention the laser drill, which is much easier and earlier to get ingame has 230%, 20% more mining power (DCU has 210% mining power)

The only reason i say having it scale to your highest pick instead of just buffing it to 230% is so in the scenario that you do add a higher level ore when the next set of bosses are added, it doesnt just fall into the same pattern as before where it cant really be used at all for real mining, as the only stuff you would want is the later game ores.

**Make all Calamity stackable spiky balls be thrown all at once on stealth strikes.**

Spiky balls that do this generally can do well on many occasions (Sticky Spiky Balls vs Hive Mind, Nychthemeron throughout most parts of Hardmode) when used at stealth strikes. Considering stealth strikes are way slower, stealth strikes of spiky balls that aren't thrown at multiple amounts are hard to take advantage of.

Making most of the stackable spiky balls be thrown all at once would make these spiky balls a lot more beneficial to use on stealth strikes, signifying their use in the context of stealth as support as well.

**Rework Omega Blue armor's tentacles.**

These tentacles are arguably the worst part of the armor, having iffy mechanics while being not much rewarding to use.

For when you'd use the armor versus DoG, the tentacles are especially weak because they can't keep up with his head or tail without the player constantly mothering them.

Reworking the tentacles would make Omega Blue more favorable for its unique close range use, instead of just being a glass cannon armor.

Some ideas to rework the tentacles could be, but aren't limited to:

Making the tentacles snap immediately onto enemies much faster.
Making the tentacles able to target everything, but only heal on its current targets.
Making heals done with the tentacles reduce the cooldown of Abyssal Rampage.

**Rework Lunar wings perks to make them more worth to use compared to Seraph Tracers.**

Reworking perks of these wings would make them a lot more worth to use with post-ML class armors instead of just defaulting to Tracers.

An example for each wings' perk could be but won't be limited to:

Solar Wings: Constant Solar dash regardless of Solar Blaze charge when wearing Solar Armor
Vortex Booster: Immunity to Distorted and reduced hover flight time consumption when in Vortex stealth while wearing Vortex Armor
Nebula Mantle: Player leaves nebula trails which improves magic projectiles that go through the trail while wearing Nebula armor

In its current form, WoF only despawns when it crosses the underworld, even if you die before. If you spawn the boss on one end of a medium or large world, this takes a while and makes fighting the boss in general a chore, because you either have to reload the world or butcher the boss (which spawns a lovely little box STRAIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF YOUR ARENA). It also heavily promotes cheesing the boss. Making it despawn immediately will make this boss so much less annoying to die to.

Reason: The box was added at a time when the post ML items had a bug where they burned in lava. This issue has since been fixed, and the items no longer burn. Additionally, the items falling in lava doesnt present a problem for the player to obtain them either, since in post ML they have accessories like lava charm and certain armors to give (temp) immunity. With this in mind the box serves no real gameplay purpose, and instead clutters up your arena with unneeded tiles.

Having a surface Hallow biome is important to many things, both in this mod and otherwise (Pixie dust and unicorn horns, Providence's wing drop, etc), and it's frustrating to have to use Cheat Sheet to spawn a Clentaminator and Blue Solution at the beginning of hardmode just so that I can have an essential biome that should have been there in the first place.

**Make Rev+ Destroyer's lasers a lot more organized.**

Despite the recent changes, Destroyer's laser spam still feels rather unfun to fight against, as the order each segment is shooting them is absolutely random and players can easily be overwhelmed by the amount of lasers.

Astrum Deus is a good example of laser spam, as it's defined how the lasers are shot (from body segment closest to head, all the way to the segment closest to tail), and it's much less overwhelming to the players.

Making Destroyer's laser spam somewhat more organized would make the boss a bit more fun and less overwhelming.

Some ideas to achieve this could be, but won't be limited to:

Making Destroyer's segments light up to the color of the laser they'd shoot as a telegraph.
Making the order of segments that shoot lasers a lot clearer, a bit like Deus.

**Add more Dart weapons**

Dart weapons are some of the most fun and unique weapons in Terraria. However, there are very few of them, 5 to be exact. The Charged Dart Blaster (the only dart weapon after the Dart Pistol/Gun) just gets upgraded into the Shredder, a non-dart weapon, which doesn't fit the point of upgrades at all. Instead of upgrading into a standard gun, the CDB should be upgraded into its own line of dart weapons. In addition, more dart weapons should be added to flesh out prehardmode (only two options exist currently, the Blowgun and Blowpipe), and in hardmode to make the progression more smooth.

**Fix Voidstone Walls / Sulphurous Sea generation**

Went on a spiritual journey to figure out how to build in the Sulphurous Sea / Abyss, turns out it relies on RNG and unclear information.

Currently the Sulphurous Sea generates with Voidstone walls behind the Sulphurous Sandstone blocks inside the biome. This is an issue because the terrain can generate in a way that does not provide a clear path of purely Sulphurous Sandstone walls that lead down into the abyss. This does not create a progression skip as the walls only impede the progress of builds and not player movement. (The wiki and no other information states when Voidstone walls are breakable during progression, this is why there is an issue to begin with)

This creates two options:

Make Voidstone walls breakable during a specified point in progression (as even 210% hammer power is not enough pre-moonlord)
Remove Voidstone walls within the Sulphurous Sea to allow players to build within the biome, without having to rely on lucky terrain generation

**Make Supreme Calamitas still take damage when Supreme Soul Seekers are alive**

In their current form, Supreme Soul Seekers are forgettable and just serve as a stop sign in the SCal fight. I think they should be changed in some way to have a bigger impact on the fight. I suggest SCal not being invincible while Soul Seekers are alive.
This would make the end of the fight more varied and give the player a decision, since you either have to focus the Soul Seekers down or just go straight for the witch herself, which is risky since the Seekers fire Brimstone Darts (during Bullet Hell 5 too?). It would also pay homage to the fight with the Calamitas Clone.

The reason for this is because since the Wizard already sells the Magic Missile, which is a dungeon crate loot item, the Wizard should also sell the Aqua Scepter as well to maintain its consistency in selling dungeon crate loot items and for easier obtaining. It seems a little bit odd that he only sells the Magic Missile when Aqua Scepter is also just as important, due to it being used in an auric-tier craft.

As far as solutions, I think giving it a small time after it dismounts where it is slightly slower so the player can have just a bit of time to react would be a fair approach.

**Make the Abyss significantly deeper**

I personally love the atmosphere of Abyss and the way its cramped while you are exploring it. Although it feels like very short-lived experience rather than challenging exploration, especially on small-medium sized worlds. Diving into Abyss itself becomes dull experience once you get good accessories since it takes not much time to get to the deeper layers. Some people have recommended making Abyss wider, although in my personal opinion it'd ruin its atmosphere and feelings of urgency that its cramped deep space gives. Making abyss deeper by increasing it's total height would preserve the atmosphere but make its experience longer and much more challenging and fun.

My quick photoshop of how it could look like:

**Change the Tundra Flame Blossoms Staff so its Projectiles don't Cover the Entire Screen**

Especially with cold-colored attacks (such as Cryogen's or Frost Lasers), the huge amount of projectiles the blossoms fire along with the ridiculously long projectile trail they have can make it incredibly difficult to see smaller projectiles. I suggest:
-Reducing the amount of trails the projectiles have down to around 3 instead of 6
-Increasing the damage of the blossoms' projectiles, but reducing how many are fired
By doing the above, it's unlikely the projectiles would cover nearly as much of the screen, making it much easier to dodge harder-to-see projectiles.

**Make the Piggy into Bacon Recipe Give More Bacon**

I'm thinking maybe 5 pieces? Anyway, my reason for thinking that is that when you use a Piggy at a cooking pot, you're getting one Bacon. If you kill it, you get a Bacon and 10 gold, and and if you sell it, you get 10 gold. So if you want Bacon, you absolutely should just kill the piggy, which is also arguably lower effort (at least once you have some good DPS) than capturing it and bringing it back to the pot, so the reward for bringing it to the Pot should be at least somewhat greater than just killing it.
I know this is a really minor change, but I just had this thought after capturing a piggy and thought I might as well share it.

**Buff the wing counterparts to the Tracers**

Currently, there's no point to really use wings once Seraph Tracers are obtained. The other wings you may use are simply used as recipes for the different Tracers. For example, I never found myself using Lunar, Elysian, and Drew's wings over the different shoes. They seemed to just be in the recipe, and never worth using over. I think there should either be a wing tree such as the Tracers, or the post-ML wings should deserve a buff to compete with the Tracers.

Wings are never used, so make people have to choose between two balanced options depending on play style. Wings and Tracers could make you play differently depending on which you chose.

There could be more variety as well, such as being able to get class specific wings. This would make Tracers multi-class and wings class specific, like Spectre wings already being Mage wings. This could be added to Elysian Wings with requiring the class specific drop from Provi.

Auric Tesla bars and Ascendant Spirit Essence used to not exist, and you just used their components instead. Galactica Singularities, Cores of Calamity, and Life Alloy follow a similar principle. These fused materials are really convenient, and feels a bit cooler than just using the components; I think the same should be done for Lumenyl, Tenebris, and Depths Cells; it would be up to the devs to decide exactly how many of each you need to make one unit of this new material, and of course it would be up to them to decide what the material actually is as well. I think that a material made by mixing the three primary Abyss materials would not only be convenient and cool, but it would fit the pattern of other items in the mod that share the same baseline components. Perhaps most importantly, it would help clean up your inventory and storage systems, increasing your organization by getting rid of the need to keep filling up three inventoory slots with the same materials to make the majority of Abyss items.

So why does a class that is basically built on taking damage have its ultimate armor's set bonus require you to be on full health to deal the most damage?

Given the fact that the wizard sells the crystal ball at the start of hardmode, the witch doctor sells bewitching tables post-skeletron, and the ammo box is bought via the traveling merchant, there should be a reliable way to obtain the sharpening station as well. It seems rather peculiar that the 3 other stations have a way of obtaining them, but sharpening stations only exist in "x amount", meaning those who want to make The Camper (for example in multiplayer), are forcibly limited to the number of sharpening stations that exist.

The way accessory modifiers are designed right now is tiered into 4 tiers per type (take example of damage boosting ones: Jagged, Spiked, Angry and Menacing). This system can definitely be seen as encouraging minmaxing, as people would just go for the best one and dare wasting money on Goblin Tinkerer as much as it would take.

Making accessory modifiers being only one of each type (with adjusted stats to compensate) would diminish the minmaxing nature of reforging, and makes reforging accessories actually give a sense of variance.

Raise the hardcap to max mana bonuses.

Currently, you can only get 200 more mana from armor, accessories, and buffs, with the rest coming from permanent upgrades. This number is very way to reach, even in post-golem, hydrothermic armor and the sigil of calamitas giving you 100 mana each. This leads to additional bonuses being redundant. It also heavily nerfs the arcane modifer by causing it to often not do anything. To solve this, I suggest that this cap be raised, perhaps to something like 350. This would reduce redundancy and indirectly buff arcane.

so i've been playing the heck out of this mod, recently started a new rogue playthrough where i just recently beat brimstone. this is important because from pre-boss to brim (and beyond!) an equipment for rogue is extremely useful, but insanely unfun to play with: the raider's talisman. essentially, this item is a pre-boss rogue emblem, with one really dumb condition: if you want to use it to its full potential, you have to break the momentum and spend at least 5 minutes farming crits on lesser bosses until you get that 15% damage boost, then die and have to do it all over again. i understand this could be seen as overkill, but the item is so insanely powerful at full power and a waste of space if you're not boosting it pre-boss that you either suffer the consequences without it or spend ungodly amounts of time so you can have a better shot at the tougher bosses. my proposed fix, to keep the initial flavor intact, is to keep the crits-to-power mechanic, but instead of increasing by 1 it could increase by 5, and all of your crits would automatically drain after 10 seconds of either not doing damage, dying, or summoning a boss (to prevent critfarming.) this would make for a much more engaging use of the talisman as you might want to make a crit rogue build to quickly build max power on the talisman or have the slowly gaining consistent damage for each bossfight you encounter.

Make an earth elemental summon

If every other element has a summon why not earth? My idea is that he would circle around the player and shoot enemies with rocks, and occasionally charge at them, the main reason is the earth elemental is the only one with out an accessory and is probably the most challenging early hardmode, if he's to big scale him down a bit.

**Make Rod of Discord crafting slightly easier.**

As we all know, Calamity Mod adds a way to craft Rod of Discord without spending 15 hours farming chaos elementals. The idea of RoD crafting is to make it easier to obtain. To craft Rod of Discord you need 50 pixie dusts, 30 souls of light and 5 chaos fishes. To get this amount of pixie dusts and souls of light you need around 30 minutes of farming, which is good amount of time for such item.

Main problem are chaos fishes. To get 5 chaos fishes you need around 3 hours of fishing in underground hallow which is extremly painfull.

And you can say "but this is good amount of farming for such a good item?". Maybe you are right but in calamity Rod of Discord is must-have and you always waste your time fishing when you could progress the game, fight bosses and do other cool things.

So what is solution for this problem? It's simple. In my opinion devs should add another way to craft Rod of Discord so you can choose how you want to get it. Another solution is to balance Rod of Discord crafting. For example: change amount of chaos fishes to 2 or just remove them completely and add 10 unicorn horns to crafting (just an example, it doesn't have to look like that).

**Turn Flare Gun into summoning tool**

Right now the Flare Gun is completely useless, only use being to light up caves temporarily yet often never used due to the inconvenience of it. The damage is laughable, and by no means is a secret underrated weapon. I suggest turning the Flare Gun into a Summoning tool (to avoid the penalty) used to make Summons directly target that area or enemie the flare has hit, while giving speical bonuses to summons that attack that space or monster. (For example, a normal flare could add 2+ damage to the summons, or if it were to be expanded apon a jungle flare could be shot out and when a summon attacks it, they apply a poision debuff to whatever they hit.) I believe this would help with the summons early game weeknesses while giving depth to experienced players wanting more strategy and depth to summoning as a class, with possible upgrades to the flare gun later on.

**Make Scal's hellblasts have to wait more time do to damage during a bullet hell**

Bullet hells are supposed to be hard indeed, but one of the main problems is that abyssals/hellblasts usually spawn from above the player, this isnt a problem from bullet hells 1-3 but becomes a huge and/or unfair inconvenience later due to the Brimstone Monsters (also known as moons). The main problem is that in some cases they can spawn really close to the player or directly above the player while circling usually resulting in a cheap shot that could easily kill you or at least dealing massive damage. This would make the fight, specially in the later parts more fair and less reliant on rng as well as standing near the top of the arena to destroy them in bh3 and making thick walls around the arena less necessary specially on the death difficulty.

**Make nailheads drop more darksun fragments in the buffed solar eclipse**

Nailheads are pretty much the miniboss of the solar eclipse and are a pain to kill, so the player should be rewarded for killing them more than they are for killing any other non-Mothron enemy. As they are now, it's safer and more efficient when farming darksun fragments pre-yharon p2 to run from them and let them despawn. Making them drop more would also correlate with the recent changes in making Everscreams and Mourning Woods drop more of their respective materials.

**make some legendary weapons classless (and change their attack)**

One of the main reasons that legendary weapons didn't scale with progression is that it removed variety in your playthroughs, however, some legendary weapons are still way stronger than most weapons at that tier and above, I think legendary weapons should be unique support weapons with a different attack style/pattern etc, rather than being yet another weapon, a good example of a cool legendary weapon is the cold divinity, it's unique and has a cool play style tactic, but that's not the case for most legendaries like aegis blade, cosmic discharge, blossom flux etc, changing a few damage types to classless and making them very useful support weapons with a unique attack would solve 3 problems

some legendaries being too strong for a few tiers
lack of classless weapons
basicness of some legendary weapons

**Make warding a multiplicative dr boost.**

Currently, warding has some scaling issues. The flat nature of the defense boosts leads to warding falling off, as the defense doesn't keep up with the increased damage taken. Considering the current defense of warding, there isn't much room to add additonal defense increases to let it scale better with progression. A more effective solution would be making it a multiplicative dr boost. This boost would be constant throughtout the game, always providing the same percentage of reduced damage taken regardless of progression or other gear. This entirely avoids the issue of warding falling off.

**Make some rogue class weapons have an alt attack that doesn’t take stealth**

Whenever I play rogue class, I never feel the significance of stealth nor ever feel the need to wait for a stealth strike over attacking instantly. I feel like making an alt attack on some rogue weapons will make you actually consider saving your stealth for a stealth attack rather than just instantly attacking. The cost of using the alt could vary from weapon to weapon, as some could inflict a rebuff that makes you take increased damage for a bit or something, while another weapon could just be adding extra potion sickness for a bit. Armour bonuses can also affect what the alt click does or maybe cloose the de buff that’s inflicted etc. I feel like this feature could be used in very creative ways and make the rogue class playthroughs feel a bit more rogue like rather than just another class with different weapons.

***Summoning item which triggers phase 2 of HM/Perforators***

Add a item which summons in the Hive mind phase 2 and the Perforators: with all 3 worms phases to get this item you'd need to craft the original summoning item and Aerialite Bars. This would be perfect when practicing bosses for example no hitting or if you're new to the game and want to be able to fight the bosses later phases on another world and go back to their original world being prepared adapting to the bosses patterns. The Hive Mind phase 1 is just so slow and by the time phase 2 comes out you're not prepared since phase 1 is just a monster which teleports arounds you summoning enemies and phase 2 is so much more extreme. Just thought this would be a helpful suggestion giving people who wanna practice bosses a better experience.

**Heavily slow down Brimstone Monsters during S-Cal's Bullet Hell 5.**

The current iteration of Brimstone Monster is contradictive to BH5's accuracy needed and projectile density.

The density of projectiles encourages you to take relatively slow steps in dodging, but the Brimstone Monsters chase the player like they're chasing Black Friday sale, heavily pressuring the player, leading in tendency to move recklessly.

Slowing down Brimstone Monsters during BH5 would make the segment a bit more controlled, and less of a confusing jumble as it is right now.

**Remove or Change the Enemies that Rely on Gravity in Post-ML Events so they Actually Present a Challenge**

(This means blood moon post-ml, frost/pumpkin moon post-dog, and solar eclipse post-yharon 1)
The post-ML events are a bit...bland. They use the same enemies with almost the same AI, only with massively buffed damage and health. Most of the Fighter AI/grounded enemies are completely useless because you can just jump over them, and even then most of the other enemies' attacks are based on the assumption that the player will land on the ground frequently or at least be near it.

Tier 3 Acid Rain does a post-ml event right. The enemies fire loads of projectiles at you for you to dodge while you fly above them--and this suits post-ml perfectly--all of the bosses in post-ml have bullet-hell elements, after all.

Most of these enemies are completely useless, only doing something when you need to refresh your wing flight time, and the other events aren't much different. Changing or removing useless enemies would make these events more engaging and not rely on massive damage values.

**Allow the merchant to sell empty bottles similar to how he sells torches**

Bottles obtaining involves one to terraform their desert for a lot of sand in order to be made into glass. Meaning that eventually, there is only a limited supply of bottles that can be obtained from one world but also at the cost of someone having to rip apart their desert to make said glass from sand into bottles. It'd be more convenient as well as a nice QoL to amend this issue of potential large terraforming to obtain sand for bottle conversions. On top of this, those who farm in their desert would most likely want the glass be put to something else than mass quantities of bottles for potions.

**Rework the lore of the Astral Infection Biome**

The Astral Infection is one of the most interesting biomes added by Calamity. It has great bosses and enemies, and its exclusive items are interesting and useful. That being said, it feels somewhat unimportant to both Calamity's gameplay and story. While none of the biomes added by Calamity are technically "necessary" for progression, (the abyss, Brimstone Crags, etc.) they provide an incentive, in both their lore and gameplay, that I feel like the Astral Infection lacks. They also form a common story in their lore, whereas the Infection just sort of appears, without warning. I feel like if the Astral Infection received lore that contributed to the overarching story of Calamity, as well as if it was foreshadowed in Prehardmode (say, by Amadias or Draedons labs), that it would fit betting into the game.

**Allow Drataliornus' shots to ignore blocks.**

Drataliornus (or at least its primary attack) needs a good build up in order to deal the best DPS. But often times, dodging the wrong way and making Supreme Calamitas go out of her arena essentially disables the weapon, as players can't really do anything until they can pull SCal back into the arena.

Making Drataliornus' shots ignore blocks would make the weapon a lot more consistent, especially once it's at full charge.

**Introduce a way to toggle turning while swinging certain melee weapon types.**

Allowing the player to turn around while swinging certain melee weapons (notably Broadswords) is a nice convenience, but there are cases when the opposite could be extremely useful.

One example is Gauss Dagger (before 1.4.5.006) vs Skeletron. Despite its small range, it's an incredibly great weapon versus the boss for true melee, especially when Skeletron is doing his spin attack. In this moment, the player could hold a relatively safe distance between them and Skeletron while repeatedly swinging Gauss Dagger onto the boss, stacking the magnetic flux effect and dealing high damage.

Allowing players to freely toggle the turning effect would make true melee experience a lot more flexible and enjoyable, giving players a lot different approaches to current true melee weapons.

**larger pick up range for enemies that were killed by summons**

With all the other classes you more or less know where you killed enemies and so you can easily grab their loot, however with summons you don't exactly know where enemies died let alone know if they did die because summons just do their own thing, so I think that when an enemy is killed by a summon that enemies loot should have a higher pick up range, or if that's too hard just give the player a pick up range buff for a second or two when summons kill

make death mode ravager's stomp attack release shockwave of sorts

as of now ravagers stomp attack is pretty easy to doge, you just need to dash away, and thats a bit uninteresting especially that that phase lasts for most of the fight, so, make it so when hes at idk, 50% hp he starts releasing shockwaves on the ground when he stomps, hat would make you actually try to dodge him and it would make that phase a lot more interesting, the shockwave could maybe knockback you a little whether you have knockback resistance or not, it would aslo kind of make sense because hes heavy i assume
i know that he has the pillars and flames and stuff but you can mostly simply fly over them and iirc its also in rev

Remove Storm Weaver's spawn requirement of being in Space

It's been a while now since Storm Weaver no longer enrages when dragged away from the Space layer. Which is nice, but forcing players to reach Space simply to summon the boss feels a bit weird and unintuitive. I propose changing it so you can use the Rune of Kos anywhere on the surface, since it doesn't conflict at all with the 2 other sentinels.

**Stardust dragon buff**

Stardust dragon is a weapon that was pretty op in vanilla, but calamity nerfed to the point of uselessness due to how it obliterated every worm boss like in here: https://youtu.be/XpyxnldjsEM .
The point of this change is to buff dragon so that its viable to use on most circumstances but not broken as seen in that video or as in vanilla.
Stardust dragon currently has a measly 20 base dmg and is outclassed by most weapons available and there is no reason to use it over the viable til Polterghast Stardust Cells and Godspawn helix staff or most post-Golem summon weapons. The suggestion is to buff dragon's base dmg to 30 so that its more viable in its tier, but increase the resist Calamity's worm bosses have against it so that they don't get obliterated by it if it completely destroys them with the buff.

Its understandable that weapons droped by abyss minibosses after Polterghast aren't on Abyssal Crates, due the player can skip the entirety of the abyss while doing fishing.
However, Abyssal Crates do not drop Torrential Tear after Skeletron, contrary to other items found on Shadow Chests - including Strange Orb, weapons and accesories - .

Making it drop from Abyssal Crates could full-fill the purpose of Abyssal Crates, which is the alterative way of getting items from the abyss, as in, the player can get all the drops from the abyss, by doing fishing.

**Rework the artemis emblem.**

Currently, this accessory feels very boring and not needed. This item provides a 10% boost to ranged damage and 5% ranged crit, which are the main focus of the accessory. It also provides many assorted effects inheretied from the celestial stone, such as 5 defense, +3 life regen, and 15% mining speed. The current of the effects are quite boring, a pure stack stick with nothing unique to offer. The lack of uniqueness of this accessory also hurts the necessity of having it. In terms of alternate damage-dealing accessories, you already have three post-golem accessories, the destroyer emblem, the void of extinction, and the sniper scope. If you want a more generalist focus, there's the celestial shell and stone. The artemis emblem is just a slight sidegrade of the aforementioned accessories which very little distinction. There's very little reason for this accessory in its current state. Moving it to a different tier and giving it difference effects would greatly help with this problem.

**Buff the Flamsteed ring for summoner**

The flamsteed ring is an amazing weapon but it has a huge downside for the class it's meant for (summoner). You cannot use it with other summoner weapons to attack, meaning you're forced to use a non summoner weapon and get the damage loss from using a non summoner weapon, therefore making your other summons do way less. With the damage drop from your other summons it's literally not worth using the flamsteed ring because on a dummy without using the flamsteed ring i can get an average of 1.2 million but with the flamsteed ring and constantly attacking with it i can only get around 1 million dps. So please allow us to use summoner weapons to attack with the flamsteed ring.

For an expert accesory dropped by an endgame boss, Yharim's Gift is extremely bland, having only stat boosts and minor effects. Reworking Yharim's Gift would make the accesory a lot more worth it to use at that point in the run.

One idea for its rework could be, but not limited to stripping its minor effects and giving a brand new effect that, when a hotkey is pressed, would bring the player's health down to 1HP. For the next few seconds after, every good amount of the damage dealt to enemies will heal the player, all the way to full if the player can do so. This gives a sense of interesting risk / reward, as they will be extremely crippled if they decided to not attack while the effect is active.

On the other hand, Death Duke's endless dash is way more fun to fight against, as you don't have your focus divided by annoying additions and makes the dodging the boss fairer and more fun.

Simply put, removing Sharknados from these parts and shifting the power to new direct attacks from Duke himself would make that specific part a lot more fair and fun to fight against.

**Make the Fungal Clump in the Amalgam do classless damage**

I love the Amalgam, it's one of my favorite accessories in the game. However, it's effectiveness is massively reduced in 4 of the 5 classes, due mostly to the Fungal Clump dealing Summon damage, which makes its dps fairly sub-par compared to other accessories.

No other part of the Amalgam is dedicated to one class damage, with its main focus being a multi-class accessory.

The two ways that this could be fixed would be to make it benefit from all class damage and remove it from the Summon damage penalty, or to make it deal a fixed 1000 damage.

**Adjust the knockback scaling with True Melee weapons.**

As much as I love the risk/reward for using true melee weapons, the knockback keeps them from being able to handle horde events (Goblin army, pirate invasion, etc.) as easily.

Some weapons like Greentide and Comet Quasher are also nigh unable to utilize their "on enemy hits" effects, since regular enemies are just knocked away before their projectiles can land, making them much harder and much more annoying to use.

I have no problem with true melee against bosses or minibosses, since most of them are immune to knockback.

I also don't have a problem with true melee spears, as the way they attack guarantees multiple hits on multiple enemies, allowing them to reach their full DPS potential.

Some other weapons with short range, like the Fetid Bagnakhs or even Mycelial Claws are nigh completely impossible to use as well, since their short range but high knockback keeps them from utilizing their gimmick, that being high DPS at short range.

There are two ways these issues could be fixed: Either make the on-hit projectiles on true melee weapons faster so you could hit regular enemies easier, or tone down the knockback scaling on either the weapons themselves and/or the accessories/armor effects that increase melee knockback.

Fabsol's Vodka, in my opinion, is a great potion for early hard-mode, at all, you can craft it now on Hardmode if you are going for the 'Keg' crafting station path.

This contradicts the Keg crafting station recipe, which includes hardmode materials such as Unicorn Horn, Pixie Dust and Crystal Shards.

While the great sand shark is a fun mini boss that greatly expands the sandstorm event, its summoning condition is very easy to fulfill when farming for other sandstorm items. The sand sharks are in the ground and have relatively low HP. So including an accessory to stop the spawn of the boss when the conditions are met would greatly streamline the process and reduce the time spent farming for items, like the rare elemental in a bottle or the forbidden shards. This would make the process much less painful and significantly more manageable, especially early post-plantera where the boss can pose a threat.

Make the Sentinels phase in the DoG fight harder and more intense.

The Sentinels phase doesn’t feel necessary to include in DoG's fight because it isn’t really difficult, it disappears after beating it once, and is only really there as a “last stand”. Making it more intense would turn it an actual threat, have it better resemble a “final stand”, and make it more satisfying to get over and done with. Some examples of how it could done:

All 3 sentinels appear and attack together in some way, e.g. two shooting from a distance and one charging at the player

Add more ways to interact with Mana

?

Mana is a weird concept, as it’s the basis for an entire class of the game, but you really only regenerate or heal it with pots. In this vein, things like Mana Polarizer, which do something specific with how much mana you have, are incredibly unique and can show how mana can be utilized more than just a bar you barely have to pay attention to. Ion Blaster/Apoctosis Array are highly unique weapons that both gain more power the higher your mana is, causing you to think and use them differently because of it. Brimflame frenzy also interacts with mana in an interesting way, causing you to be unable to regenerate mana. Because of how unique and thoughtful these mana interactions are, I think that adding more ways to interact with mana, such as Apoctosis Array/Ion Blaster, Brimflame Frenzy, and Mana Polarizer would add some more unique flavor to the Mage class overall.

Turn Trinket of Chi into a powerful Stealth accessory

?

Trinket of Chi is an accessory that gives you a buff after standing still and not using a weapon for a short time. Because you’re not supposed to use a weapon for this time, most people completely ignore it, due to the fact that not using a weapon massively detracts from your dps. However, stealth rogue already naturally does not use weapons for short periods of time in order to activate their powerful stealth strikes. Thus, I recommend turning the almost completely unused Trinket of Chi into a powerful stealth rogue accessory to support the class, similar to fungal Symbiote.

Ideas for what the new Trinket of Chi could do:

Double stealth generation when standing still
Stealth Strikes fire additional projectiles
Stealth Strikes also trigger another random stealth strike

These minions (notable examples are Cosmic Immaterializer and Frost Blossom) can use only an exact amount of minion slots to spawn one, and only one, of each.

These restrict the freedom of minions where you can freely attribute slots to different minions. Reworking these minions to use slots normally would let players have freedom of choice with these minions.

Not only that, summoner is about swarming enemies, and this could be reattributed to size or fire rate for these "single" minions, primarily to further drive these minions away from being some kind of support.

Because Ocean themed materials become rather useless after you've beaten Leviathan and gotten the Ocean lore to remove ???, I think that making it drop from her would just make things a lot less tedious.

**Rework the post Yharon solar eclipse**

Currently the dark sun after yharon is really just the exact same thing but the enemies have ridiculously buffed states. Therefore, it can be kind of lame since there is not much new to the event. Solar eclipses are already a pain to go through since it takes a full 15 min. Most of my friends just ditch the post yharon eclipse and simply buy all of the darksun fragments from the operator npc from the Alchemist NPC mod.

I suggest adding more of an incentive to do the eclipse after yharon and make it a lot more fun rather than it just being a chore. I don't think it needs any new enemies or drops but as the final invasion event you would do in a calamity world, it deserves a more unique and interesting approach. Perhaps there could be a wave system similar to the moon events but instead of progressing through the waves by killing enemies, the waves depend on the time. (8:00am - swamp things, 10:00am - vampires, 5:00pm - mothrons). The later waves will have a much higher chance of dropping darksun fragments so this will give more of an incentive to stay through the whole event. Thats just an idea I had.

Reduce the amount of materials in many end game crafting recipes.

End game calamity suffers heavily from recipes being very bloated. Recipe bloat arises when they are pointless materials in a recipe. Recipe bloat leads to extended, pointless grinding and takes away from the actual gameplay. When it uses early game items, its such a breeze to get them with your late game gear that they might as well not be there at all. When weapons are upgraded, it is logical that the upgrade should maintain aspects of the downgrade and be thematically fitting with each other. Materials in a recipe should largely be tier relevant and thematically fitting. Some specific instances of this are as follows.

Auric Tesla Bars are one of the worst offenders for recipe bloat. Breaking the bar down into basic components, there is a total of 18 different materials used in it. 16 of these materials are gotten on previous tiers and as far as I can tell have no thematic fitting with the bar. It creates this annoyingly long extended grind just to get the needed endgame items. The bar could use just auric ore and the only thing that would change is less grinding. Auric weapons also suffer from many of the same problems that auric bars do, that is having a bunch of weapons in them with nothing to do with the final product. This a trend throughout many late game recipes and it could be easily rectified by cutting down recipes.

Change The Destroyer slightly to make it more fun and balanced in general.

Currently, this boss is much harder than the other bosses at its tier, and is also unfair to dodge, as there is basically no way to effectively dodge lasers due to the sheer amount of them, and due to the speed of the boss itself when at low HP, it becomes very difficult to dodge its head. This is especially apparent during his wyvern phase, and seeing as it does upwards of 300 damage in Death Mode, being hit by its head is practically instant death. All these considered, I suggest a few simple changes to the boss to make it more fair in general.

Reduce how much its speed scales based on distance
Massively reduce speed in wyvern phase
Reduce firerate of lasers from the boss (or add a pattern to them, similarly to Astrum Deus)

The reason for the second change is that with the amount of speed it accumulates during that phase, the boss tends to go very far away from the player, which only leads it to go even faster, and so on.

Sure, there are more powerful weapons like Yanmei's Knife or the Relic or Deliverance, but as squishy as summoners are, you don't really want to get close.

**Rework stat stick accessories.**

Currently, calamity has a large amount of stat stick accessories. Examples are the dark sun ring, cryo stone, and the affliction. These accessories are characterized by giving raw and basic stats, such as damage, crit, regen, defense or dr. Since stats are obviously very important in terraria, these accessories are often quite good. However, they feel boring because they don't have any effect that's unique or memorable. Reworking them to have more unique effects and abilties would lead to calamity having much more memorable accessories. A great example of one such accessory is the bloodflare core, which acts like no other defensive accessory. It halves your defense, and then heals your hp and defense when you get hit.

Additionally, more unique effects opens the door to more interesting interactions between accessories. In other games with equipment, you'll often end up choosing gear that can synergize together for a powerful result. More unique accessories will naturally lead to better synergies between accessories, making choosing your accessories much more interesting. With raw stats bonuses, these synergies will never happen. The closest thing you can get is just stacking for a single stat. Bloodflare core is a good example of an accessory, synergizing with accessories that give bonuses in defense such as draedon's heart. The more defense, the more defense it'll heal. Compare this synergy potential with that of the cryo stone, a stat stick accessory that gives defense, dr, and damage. It wouldn't really synergize with anything at all (besides bloodflare core). Allowing for potential syerngy would make picking gear much more interesting.

Make dragonfolly not enrage for a few seconds after spawning

(I'm going to refer dragonfolly as "birb" for ease)
Birb is a fast-paced boss which attack consists of dashing, summoning feathers and spawning servants. Birb's behaviors are if you're 75 blocks away from birb or being out of the jungle for at least 3 seconds, it will enrage, gaining increased aggression and feather speed. If both conditions it'll gain 65% DR.

The spawning conditions of mobs are here: https://terraria.gamepedia.com/NPC_spawning#Spawning_Basics . If you read the wiki, birb will almost always spawn enraged since it spawns far away from the player, getting stuck on blocks and your first instinct will more likely than not move hence making birb further away from you causing it be able to dash with mach speed makes you get a cheap, undodgeable hit and more often than not you'll get hit for +150 more often than not. These are videos that show how birb can be a bit unfair at times(ignore me being one shot, I just happen to be using armageddon at the time) https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/697433383793459234/786141676636864522/Terraria__Better_than_life_2020-12-09_14-28-17_Trim.mp4

TL;DR, when birb spawns, it gets enraged almost immediately and when it chooses to do a dash it leaves the player with no reaction time, giving the player contact damage

Rework Phaseslayer to be a true melee weapon.

Phaseslayer got an interesting mechanic, in which it can deal higher damage the faster you spin it. Thing is, its damage and range isn't really good enough to compete with Murasama, and the projectiles the weapon creates are more gimmicky than anything. Reworking the weapon to pure true melee would make it a more chaotic alternative to Murasama.

Some ways this can happen could be, but won't be limited to:

Increasing base damage and range of the weapon immensely.
Making the main blade count as true melee, and the beams spawn on true melee hits.

When fighting storm weaver, you'll most likely come across lightning orbs that spawn and shoot lightning, similar to what lunatic cultist summon. If you're not paying attention the lightning orb will summon near you, hitting you for a decent chunk of damage and also inflicting the electrified debuff which is quite brutal if you get it in storm weaver's fight since the more you move, the more the debuff's DoT does

Make it so that boss drops scale with what class you currently are

Whenever i defeat a boss, most likely i will get a boss drop that is melee or rouge when i am a summoner. If boss drops scale with what class you are, then it would be much easier to get weapons that would help me a ton with the next boss. or maybe i want to craft and endgame weapon but i need a drop from a boss. this would be post moon lord only where everything is aids to beat. How this is going to work is if you are fighting any boss (ex. providence), each item will have a different drop rate for what class you used the most (ex. you used summoner mainly and you get a summon).

Murky paste is obtained from exclusively 2 jungle enemies, however the jungle already has a material like that, stingers. In fact, jungle already has 3 materials to be used in recipes(jungle spores, stingers and vines), yet murky paste exists.
Trappper bulbs are just generally annoying to farm for, since they are an ucommon drop, and so are trappers themselves
All the recipes trapper bulbs are curretly used in coulld have the requirements for trapper bulb just removed and it would not affect the stage on which theyre obtained whatsoever.

*Making Perforator Hive invicible or untargetable while any of the Worm is alive*

Why? Because, minions targer Hive and you should lure Worms from ground to surface, so minions will see them and attack(if you dont have a proper arena). And if you dont do that often, it causes to spawn second worm. Even if Worm is in surface, minions cant damage them properly, because they were targeting Hive, that is flying. And making him invicible or untargetable while Worm is alive, your minions can focus on Worms.

**Remove Ectoblood, and add some other method of easing Ectoplasm farming to compensate.**

❔
This material really just serves to make getting an already pretty easy-to-farm material even easier to farm; there is no other point to it at all past the crafting of Ectoplasm. There are much more fascinating and less bloaty methods to pulling this off, and all of them are quite feasible at this point --- and quite practical, too, given how prominent Ectoplasm is as a material in Calamity. These alternative anti-Ectoplasm-grind implementations include but are not limited to:

Increasing the amount of Ectoplasm that Dungeon Spirits drop.
Allowing Dungeon Spirits to spawn naturally.
Allowing the enemies that would drop Ectoblood to (somewhat more rarely) drop Ectoplasm directly.
Straight-up making some new Dungeon Spirit-type enemies to drop the stuff, which spawn in the post-Plantera Dungeon naturally.

Make Ravager's Theme more focused around Stone/Flesh necromancy, and remove the other themeing from it's fight

?

Ravager’s current theme is a bit of a mess. Supposedly the basis of it is a flesh construct but alongside being a construct, it is also a crucible of souls, has geodes in it, creates ghoulish fire magic, has the power to move rock, and is an excavator. This is all demonstrated (partially) in it’s boss fight and loot, overall leading to a messy theme that is trying too hard to do too many things at once. Focusing Ravager exclusively around stone/flesh necromancy, and removing things like the golem laser and ghoulish fire magic from it's fight would give it a more thematic fight. Also, removing the loot that is simply for grind purposes would give the boss less of a "material grind" boss feeling.

Give Armored Digger more of a use

Right now, Armored Digger doesn't really have a use. The two materials he drops are easy to get, and his last item is pretty much useless. Not to mention, he rarely spawns. All I ask is for him to have more use and a way to spawn him. Tie him into Draedon and make him feel unique in some way or another. And his drop, Draedon's remote, I feel deserves a fix as well. It's the only mildly interesting drop from Armored Digger, so I feel it should get some sort of change from what it currently does to help Armored Digger's situation.

Grax is a very interesting item thanks to the Grax Boost buff, which grants several valuable perks to melee users. It's utility is cut short however by the fact it also shreds walls and trees, which can ruin arenas. Plus, Molten Hamaxe (which is pre-hardmode) already accomplishes 99% of building needs.

Clearing out this section of hell is quite tedious manually mining when there is no reason it needs to be this way, especially when hell is already extremely limited vertically.

Not only that, Pole Warpers are Auric-tier, and it has zero presence visually compared to other Auric-tier weapons.

**Remove the Ravager’s geode drops and let them drop from the Armored Digger instead, with respective design changes.**

While his utility as a bulk material farming boss is undeniably helpful, it’s confusing that the Ravager is the dedicated boss boss that drops bars and alloys, despite how the boss looks and what he implies with his current design. Considering the inconsistency in the Ravager’s purposes and themes, it may be better to move at least some of these assorted material drops to some other areas of the game, to focus the Ravager’s purpose as a primary source of bloodstone and powerful weapons.

I believe the Armored Digger would be a good fit to inherit these drops, either directly, or from grab bags the miniboss drops. Having this currently frustrating, rare, and nearly useless foe become a consistent source of life alloy post-Golem, and an even better source post-Providence would make the Digger worth looking out for, and make grinding the miniboss helpful. Of course, bloodstone would still drop from the Ravager, it would just drop directly.

In light of this change, there may be some encouragement to improve on the miniboss. If the Armored Digger becomes useful to farm, it may be worthwhile to make some sort of summoning method for the enemy and improve his stats according to the quality and quantity of his drops. The specifics of these ideas, or if they will be required, can be decided by the developers.

Make Abyssal Crates drop the Torrential Tear

As its purpose, Abyssal Crates function as an alternative way to get Shadow Chest items, Acid Rain tier 2 items, and also materials like Scoria Bars or Reaper Tooth.
Its understandable that weapons dropped by abyss mini-bosses after Polterghast aren't on Abyssal Crates, due the player can skip the entirety of the abyss while doing fishing.
However, Abyssal Crates do not drop Torrential Tear after Skeletron, contrary to other items found on Shadow Chests including Strange Orb, weapons and accesories.

Remove Planty Mush and Depth Cells

?

Depth Cells and Planty Mush are two of the six materials found in the Abyss (that being Depth Cells, Tenebris, Planty Mush, Lumenyl, and Scoria Ore). The problem I have with these materials is that they serve to propagate material bloat, being used in only Fathom Swarmer (on their own) for Depth Cells, and Life Fruit additionally for Planty Mush. Depth Cells is otherwise always used with Lumenyl.

Starting with Depths Cells, they're never the purpose of a journey to the Abyss. It's usually Lumenyl, or Scoria Ore, or the minibosses post-ml. They're dropped as you go after other things, and you never run out of Depth Cells you almost always run out of Lumenyl due to the rarity of the latter. There's no real purpose to them besides material bloat and for theme/lore.

As for Planty Mush, they're most well known for adding some plant life to the Abyss and for crafting Life Fruit. However, the Abyss already has it's own theme established through Voidstone, Tenebris, and Abyss Gravel, and Tenebris could easily replace Planty Mush in Life Fruit's recipe. There's already enough variety in the blocks used in the Abyss's creation, so Planty Mush isn't necessary, and it isn't necessary in recipes.

In conclusion, neither of these materials are necessary to the mod as a whole, and can easily be replaced by other Abyss materials. Trimming down on material bloat is important, and these two materials are a good example.

Give an ingame way to determine if the enemy you're attacking is organic, inorganic, or both.

Include a rare rogue item variant like the Spear of Destiny for the corruption's Cursed Dagger

Currently, the corruption is lacking in content that makes it even remotely equivalent to the crimson. The less powerful tools, weapons and armor, combined with lack of Ichor already make it less appealing, but the lack of a rare and powerful rogue item makes it significantly worse for rogue playthroughs. While the spear of destiny is not essential, it is very helpful. While the corruption does get the Cursed dagger, it does not have a rare alternative, worsening the corruption further. Adding a rare variant of the cursed dagger would make it more on par for rogue classes and also add a fairer choice between these two world evils.

**Remove the differences between Helmets for All Class Armors (besides Melee)**

?

Melee is first in defense, then ranged, mage, and summoner. Rogue is slotted somewhere inbetween ranged and summoner most of the time. It’s the status quo of defense for classes, but there’s no actual reason for the difference in defense in Calamity, where all the classes share a relatively similar power level. Melee however does ocassionally get up close to the enemy, so it should maintain this feature of having more defense to facilitate tanking hits. However, there’s no reasoning for arbitrarily gutting summoner defense and putting ranger on a high pedestal of defense and dodging in Calamity, when they all share relatively similar attack ranges. It’s a norm from Vanilla Terraria that can and should be fixed.

**Revert Cryonic metal's name to Verstaltite and make it more noticeably connected to Daedalus in some fashion (and rebrand/rework/resprite/etc. its crafts as appropriate).**

❔
Cryonic metal is nothing short of a mess thematically.

It spawns after melting a giant floating ice cube. Disregarding the fact that Cryo already has Permafrost and a perfectly serviceable material drop (which gets no proper use fsr) for a second: if something spawns after defeating a cold entity, you generally expect to receive cold items/material from investigating that something. The current name, Cryonic, would imply this is the case. but....
The metal itself is heavily implied in all pre-existing writings to be directly connected to Daedalus, a brilliant inventor in Calamity's lore. Why is it, then, that this metal in-game is given no connection to the inventor himself?
The metal itself is in-game comprised primarily of an uneventful blue material and...crystals. Cobalt and crystals. Where have we seen these two items before...?
Its crafts are all over the place thematically --- half of them are sky-related, half of them are vaguely related to darkness, and half of them still are related to crystals. There's no consistency at all.

In short, Cryonic metal's theming is incredibly inconsistent. However, there are vast sums of untapped potential in the concept of this metal being Daedalus' preferred alloy, and the metal's old name --- Verstaltite --- sounds like it would lend itself much better to cementing that concept as reality. Rebranding the metal and its various crafts accordingly would not only allow Frigid Bars to potentially be given a proper use, as Verstaltite would no longer need to be strictly post-Cryo, but would also allow the latter to really come into its own as a unique crafting material and perhaps even allow a glimpse into the work of the great mastermind behind virtually all of its past uses.

Add a holy flame circle around Providence to indicate the arena limits for her.

Currently, if you leave the radius of Providence's boss fight, you take RAPID damage and also go blind, which would prove to be a mechanic that makes her furthermore challenging, but currently, it's more infuriating than a challenging mechanic. There is no border to indicate the arena's limits, which is a major issue for a boss as active and engaging as Providence. Not to mention her second phase at under 50% HP when the Guardians come in. All of these factors all keep the player trying to build distance between Providence and them, which more often than not can lead to some boundary pushing.

This would also be an excellent addition for the fight, as Providence tends to move off screen more often than not with her attacks. So, without mods like Boss Cursor or similar, the player can only take relative guesses on Providence's position and theirs.

At the moment, rogue shares the flask system with melee in order to inflict debuffs, with ranger using ammo. Rogue can definitely get a different method of applying debuff that isn't shared with melee, primarily in order to further make rogue stand out as a single class and not rely on the other two, relatively physical classes, that being melee and ranged.

**Expand midrange melee weapons.**

Melee is a class that struggles with identity. The projectile weapons dominate this class, even though they contradict the idea of melee. The true melee weapons are generally unsued by the average player, as their lack of range makes them impracticle. While they can be viable, it's only do to extreme min-maxing in gear and often rely on melting the bosses or on gimmicks like lifesteal. However, there is somewhat of a medium between these two types of weapons. Yoyos, flails, and melee whips (i.e. solar eruption) that lack projectiles provide long enough range to be usable on bosses while remaining limited. These weapons also tend to provide better dps close to enemies, rewarding you for getting closer while not forcing you to go close. This allows melee to feel more like melee while not forcing it to be horribly bad or based on gimmicks. Currently, there are 19 yoyos, 11 flails and 5 melee whips added by calamity. Many of these weapons are essentially projectile weapons, relying upon them to do damage. This means that overall there are very few proper midrange weapons in comparision to true melee and projectile melee weapons. For a potential expansion, it would be ideal to convert existing weapons or replace them with new midrange wepons, as well as reworking some yoyos and flails to be proper midrange weapons.

Make Reaper Teeth only drop from Abyssal Crates after a Reaper Shark has been killed

Currently, you can simply get Reaper Teeth from Abyssal Crates after defeating Polterghast. This entirely defeats the purpose of killing Reaper Sharks for their teeth, since you can just open them up from crates. Even the tooltip for the Reaper Tooth Necklace says "A grisly trophy from the ultimate predator", which (somewhat) contradicts gameplay.

Reaper Teeth should only drop from Abyssal Crates after Polterghast AND a Reaper Shark have been defeated.

Make infinite piercing resistance behave differently.

Taking Aquatic Scourge as example, projectiles will deal less damage divided by their piercing amount when hitting the boss. However, infinite piercing projectiles only deal half damage when hitting the boss, which is equivalent to 2 times piercing. And due to how easy the boss is to line up, infinite piercing projectiles can shred the boss no problem.

Changing how the infinite piercing resistance works would make the resistance actually works. One idea to change can be, but won't be limited to making infinite piercing projectiles lose damage by a percentage everytime they hit a boss with the resistance. This would make sure that inf piercing weapons effectively cannot deal much more damage past piercing a boss with resistances.

Drastically change how the Brimstone Monsters work in SCal's fight.

?

SCal's fight is slow, methodical, and pattern based. Each time you go through the fight, you get slightly better at knowing how each attack works, and to move just enough to dodge them. However, as soon as the Brimstone Monsters spawn, it's nowhere close to a similar fight. Due to the speed of the Brimstone Monsters, you have to move at a pretty rapid pace around the arena (especially in Death Mode due to the tiny arena size.), or risk taking around half of your health. Additionally, you can't really pay as much attention to SCal's current attack phase, and it's much harder to see due to the Brimstone Monsters covering up bullets.

Brimstone Monsters should force the player to move, and not just stay in one place. However, they currently go against the more slow and methodical pace of the fight by moving way too quickly, and taking up too much space in the limited arena itself.

**Lower the price that NPCs sell Post-ML boss summons**

Right now Exotic Pheromones sit at 5 platinum in the Witch Doctor's shop, which is far above almost every other Boss summon in the game. With most of the bosses, the summons are designed so you almost always turn a profit, which is a good system imo.

But the system is even worse with Profaned Guardians, which cost an extraordinarily high 5 platinum. The Profaned Guardians are a boss many players will only fight a couple times, so setting the bar that high only encourages players to never touch the boss again for fear of wasting either precious Unholy essence or spending a huge quantity of money they cant't get back.

Given Pre-ML summons are about 50 gold at most, they should change it to 75 Gold for ML, 1 plat for PG, and 1.5 plat for Dragonfolly.

Remove Permafrost's "Delicious Meat" item and make him just sell Bacon.

The Delicious Meat item is entirely redundant. It functions exactly the same as Bacon (30 minutes of Well Fed). Incidentally, Bacon already has sort of an ice theme, due to the fact that it drops from Pigrons, an enemy exclusive to the Underground Ice biome. If anything, Pigron's Bacon makes more sense as a thing an ice-themed NPC would sell, instead of this new unrelated blue meat item.

Depending on how this is executed, this would "raise" the buy price from 50 Silver to either 1 Gold or 5 Gold, or somewhere in-between. This is fine, because Bacon (and by extension Delicious Meat) is one of the best food items in the whole game, even with the food revamp in 1.4. It deserves to be more expensive than Pho (7 mins Well Fed).

While holding Cursed Flames, or Betsy's Wraith doesnt reduce minion's damage, or making an analogue of Golden Gun(Neutral Damage)

Let's be quick, Ichor debuff reduces only 20 DF(defense), Cursed debuff 20% DR(damage reduction), and Betsy's Curse reduces 40 DF and 34% DR. So holding non-minion weapon reduces your minion dmg like -50%. This maybe tells something. (We have only one classless weapon that inflicts reduction debuff - Golden Gun, that's all)(For example SCal is immune to Betsy's Curse)

Lowering DR in lategame is more viable than DF. Switching between weapons is pain, cause minion penalty. That's all I want to say.

I'd like to stress that this ore is teased in front of the player throughout the entirety of harmode, but is treated with less uses than something like perennial bars or lumenyl, and is discarded almost instantly.

**Change SCal's Exploding Blasts to Have a Consistent Pattern Instead of a Random One**

Recently, a lot of Calamity's bosses have gone through changes to make them more consistent, such as Providence's spear cocoon attack and the entire Astrum Deus fight. These changes make it so that much less adaptive skill and instead allows you to dodge the same attacks with the same method when approached in the same way, which is much fairer in my opinion. However, the exploding projectiles in SCal's fight explode into a random pattern of darts, and haven't been changed.

This random spread of darts can be quite painful some times, as they have a tendency of exploding offscreen and presenting a mostly undodgeable clump of darts to the player when they move that way, and is a complaint among many players about the fight. You have to learn how to dodge between a large gap of darts, how to dodge between a smaller gap of darts, and how to go around an undodgeable clump of darts to dodge between a small or large gap, and which one you have to use can't be predicted, forcing the player to constantly be on their guard for these patterns--and god knows they have enough to pay attention to during the SCal fight.

By changing the dart explosions to have a set distance between each instead of a random set of gaps and clusters, they would be much less frustrating to deal with and much easier to quickly adapt to if you run into one unexpectedly, provided you've put in the necessary practice to learn how to dodge it, and would continue the much better trend of consistent attacks and patterns.

Alicorn may be only obtainable in Rev+, but most people play in Rev+. Alicorn is easier to obtain as you can just pop a Fabsol's Vodka before dealing the final 1% of DoG's hp, instead of getting a Dragon Egg from OOA and 100 souls of night, and it even has more horizontal speed than Gaze.

The thing deserves a buff in some way, maybe even something like vertical speed or a unique damage/health buff to give it a combat use, and a trim on the recipe (such as swapping the DD2 Dragon Egg for Yharon's Dragon Egg, and lowering the souls of night needed).

**Classify Scal as neither an Organic or Inorganic enemy type**

Many Draedon's Arsenal weapons do increased damage to either organic or inorganic enemies. This is done by taking a chunk of their max life and adding it to the base damage of the weapon in particular. This is a big problem for many bosses, as it means weapons are used much further into progression than they should, including against Scal herself. There are only two real solutions for balancing this:

Give Scal a unique damage sound effect that is classified as neither Organic or Inorganic, which would mean that the damage bonuses granted by these weapons don't work on her specifically. This would in turn only effect Scal in the balancing, and would mean that the other bosses don't get the same treatment.
(my preferred option) Make all bosses immune to the % effect of these weapons. This could possibly screw with the balancing of a couple weapons but is honestly just better IMO because you won't be using Pre-ML weapons against Yharon.

Overall, though, any nerf would probably work, such as adding a flat total increased damage to these, rather than Max Life.

**Make the Antlion's projectile not place a tile of sand wherever it lands**

As you most likely already know, the Antlion enemy's single attack is vomiting a block of sand at the player. This works more as an annoyance than actual difficulty, since it just makes you have to clean up the sand afterwards, something which only gets accentuated in Death Mode, where Antlions have the ability to occasionally fire a large shotgun blast of sand, cluttering even more when you're making something like an arena for the Desert Scourge.

**Add an Auric Tesla/Exo Tier Spear**

At this current point of the mod, we basically have an Exo/Auric Tesla tier for each weapon type in every class, except for Spears. Nadir is the dead end for Spears and is only Pre-Yharon Phase 2. It would certainly fill out that gap of all the available choices players, including melee users have and could potentially have some real unique features built from the spears it would potentially be crafted from.

Calamity does a lot to make basically all useful vanilla items that require a lot of RNG to get more consistent to obtain. Building is a pretty important part of the game, and is especially necessary later in the game when making large-scale arenas.
...but for whatever reason, the building tools sold by the travelling merchant can't be obtained any other way. By making these items consistent to obtain, people who are willing to put in the effort can have an easier time building, and it would match with the consistent methods of obtaining almost all other RNG-based Vanilla items.

**Make Iron Heart Disable all Forms of Healing**

Iron Heart sells itself by forcefully setting a limit on the number of times you can get hit in a fight and a challenge to remove healing options. However, some late game healing options such as life steal (empyrean knives) or the profaned soul artifact (healer guardian) completely trump natural life regeneration, which detracts from the purpose of the gamemode. It also creates unnecessary inconsistency among which types of healing are forbidden.
Plus, this would make accessories like necklace of vexation and the old duke scales more appealing since it would be easier to keep oneself at low health to reap their benefits.

So, rather than buff this item to make it more of a "stat stick", the Old Duke's Scales could be given new functionality as wings. This would make the item more interesting, consistent with vanilla precedents, fill in wing progression gaps, and overall give players more options post Moon-Lord.

**Buffing the sharpening station's sharpened buff to make it worth using**

currently out of the 4 station buffs the sharpening station is the least useful, giving melee weapons a pathetic 4 armour penetration. compared to the crystal ball's all-around good buff or a whole minion slot from the bewitching table, the measly 4 ap does pretty much nothing even as early as wall of flesh. even vanilla buffs it to 12 ap in 1.4, but that buff feels like it won't work for modded balance- it's far too high for early game and very weak for endgame. i suggest making the sharpened buff scale throughout the game similarly to the crystal ball's % damage increase by making it pierce a percentage of armour with a softcap
i feel that this is going to be much better than 1.4's flat increase to a value far too high for pre-hardmode but not very good beyond mid-hardmode, and keep the station buffs more even between classes without resorting to a complete change of mechanics, i.e. reducing dr or applying a debuff

**Entirely rework Rage to actually be something useful**

Currently, Rage makes little if any sense as a mechanic and is practically unusable. And it seems to me that its main problem lies within the whole purpose of the mechanic. Rage rewards taking damage by giving you a brief (5 seconds) damage boost if you take enough damage, which only results in 3 scenarios:

• The player dies from receiving a lot of damage before the Rage bar is fully charged;
• The player wins the bossfight before the Rage bar is fully charged;
• The player gets Rage outside of a bossfight, which is usually a waste, except for events, where you can actually use Rage to your benefit if you get it.

Also, the damage boost provided by Rage, while being big at first glance (50% — 110%), doesn't actually make that big of a difference (at least it didn't for me), especially as compared to Adrenaline (200% — 245% boost for the same 5 seconds), and that is if you manage to actually use it and not waste it, which happens sometimes.

The only way I (and a lot of other people) was able to use Rage is to prepare the bar in advance using the Heart of Darkness or Draedon's Heart, which takes ages and isn't guaranteed to help you.

There have been several proposals to tweak Rage and make it more sensible, but history shows that just tweaking Rage won't fix it, as there have been several changes to Rage, but none of them made it actually usable. Therefore there are only two ways forward with this:

• Completely redesign the mechanic (possibly renaming it in the process) to reward something else entirely, e.g. being in close proximity to danger (though that has already been suggested and it has flaws of its own) or doing something fancy related to class gimmicks, like, for example, tying it much closer into True Melee.
• As a last resort, remove it if you can't fix it. ~~After all, MGR:R only has one Ripper Mode~~. (I realise that this probably won't happen, but I still wanted to include it as an option)

These can be sold by Town NPCs post-Golem, which doesn't make much sense, as Golem is barely a major progression point that barely makes purchasing these weapons any useful.

On another hand, making them sold post-Cultist would give players an immediate option to buy the crafting material for their post-Cultist upgrades.

Move all balance changes to all modes.

Calamity attempts to improve the game by changing vanilla items. However, some of these balance changes, such as the nerf to shadow dodge, cap to immunity frames, and nerf to life regen only apply to certain modes. I feel like leaving the other modes less balanced is a poor move, at it leads to a less balanced experience in these modes and creates confusion. For example, someone used to rev may reccomend using Daedalus armor over titanium to an expert player, leading them to use a worse armor. One might say that these changes are restricted because they make the game harder, but I feel like having balance is more important, even if the game is harder. Plus, the addition of calamity gear should lead to a much easier overall expert experience, counteracting these nerfs.

**Add countermeasures to abuses related to Philosophers Stone and The Bee (and some other stuff)**

Currently, you can just equip the Philosophers Stone (or its upgrades), drink a healing potion, and switch it off, reducing potion cooldown by 15 seconds for free. You can achieve a similar feat with The Bee, by only wearing it when the effect isn't on cooldown and switching it off when the effect goes on cooldown or when not at full health. They are similar in that you don't need to wear them all time to gain their effects. This is made even easier with autopause on.

I suggest adding a debuff or a feature to the accessories that prevents the user from switching the accessories off when their effect activates (45 seconds for Philosophers Stone and its upgrades and 10 seconds for The Bee). Also Core of The Blood God. One option would be just to lock accessories during bossfights

**buff or replace on fire with something more effective**

The in fire debuff is useless even in early game, it barely deals any damage and is used by a pre moonlord armor set and a few mid/late game weapons
So since the on fire debuff is so bad why not replace it with something more effective or just buff it
Another idea would be to buff it according to progression

overall the in fire is bad and should be buffed or replaced with a better debuff

**Retier Hadarian Wings to Post-Aureus, making it drop directly from Hadarians.**

Hadarian Wings are in a stiff spot because it needs to compete with Exodus, and even if you used the former, you'll trash it as soon as you killed ML. Moving Hadarian Wings to post-Aureus would make the wings have a bit more, but not as strong, competitions and making it actually usable for a good chunk of time.

Hadarian Wings are quite unique in terms of gameplay design and it's unfortunate to see it shafted in favor of Exodus Wings on pre-ML. Though why does it need to have a bloat material for crafting it? (Hadarian Membrane)

**Make the Wizard NPC sell Guide Voodoo Dolls.**

Right now there isnt an NPC that sells the Guide Voodoo doll. This is incredibly frustrating as it drops the emblems required for making your Class Accessories. It would also just be more consistent with other Boss Summons, as once the consumable Profaned Core is removed, it would be the only consumable Boss Summon that isn't sold by an NPC.

Yes there is a crafting recipe out of leather and evil powder, but that is basically redundant because the other summons have recipes too.

**Rework some damage overtime debuffs to behave differently on certain conditions, like Crush Depth.**

Crush Depth, unlike most damage overtime debuffs, lose damage the higher the target's defense is. This gives a bit of unique interactivity with various enemies in the game, and makes the debuff less boring. Reworking some other DoT debuffs with this in mind would make them less repetitive and a bit more unique.

Rework Late HM

?

Late Hardmode in Calamity is in a really bad spot. I’m specifically referring to all of the progression in between Post-Clonelamitas/Plantera and Pre-ML. There’s a couple of reasons why it’s in a bad spot. While it’s easy to blame the high number of bosses in such a short time frame, Pre-Clone has 6 bosses, and it’s less prominently messy than Late HM. The major problem, in my eyes, is how easy it is to skip over everything, and how much outclassing of weapons there is. You don't lose a lot, besides some accessories people (with exceptions) don't generally use and weapons that will be outclassed, by doing only Golem and LC.

The weapons outclassing is something that is probably most prominent, as each class is highly encouraged to abandon any weapons obtained from the defeat of previous bosses in favor of Lunar Fragment weapons. Any weapons obtained from Astrum Aureus and Leviathan or the dungeon are outclassed once you reach Cultist. Late HM progression just generally leads to weapons being outclassed incredibly fast by the new options you are presented with.

The solution to this problem would be to make less weapons immediately outclassed.
This is most prominent with Post-Cultist vs. Pre-Cultist weapons, so one solution would be to actually make Lunatic Cultist a major point in progression like Clonelamitas/Plantera. This would make it so that you actually need to gather your weaponry in preparation for Cultist, and make the use of those weapons feel more prominent.
Golem should be less of a prominent point in progression then he currently is as well. It leads to back to back progression points, and highlights abandoning your pre-golem weapons in favor of the weapons you make from Scoria ore. It also would grant non-linearity to PBG, which also occurred with Ravager being freed from it's connection to Golem.

Make Lunatic Cultist significantly harder based on how many post-golem bosses you haven't killed.

On the present version of Calamity, there's not really that great of incentives to kill most/all of the post-golem bosses as Cultist is far easier than most as well as having superior items (pillar gear outshines PBG/Ravager/Deus gear by a wide margin). Giving Lunatic Cultist buffs based on how many post-golem bosses you haven't killed would turn LC into an actual roadblock that'd force you to fight a difficult fight OR spend time hunting down some under-fought bosses.

**Make there be a clear signal when Astrum Deus ends his invincible phases **

Astrum deus has a ridiculously long immune time, especially when he splits into two worms. Attacking him already causes some frame rate drops and when he is immune, the frame rate goes much worse. It is also kind of annoying to not know whether to attack him or focus on dodging because his immune time is so long. I suggest to play a roar or show a sort of shockwave when his invincibility is over. This way the player will know when they are supposed to attack.

**Make the Ice Bio-Center Lab's Frozen Chest contain a new, unique item as opposed to a vanilla item that's usually notably later in play.**

❔
There are three items you can obtain from the Ice Bio-Center Lab. One just sorta makes you skip out on a bit of vanilla play (Blizzard in a Balloon) and doesn't really offer anything new aside from free meta items, another is a Hardmode accessory (Frozen Turtle Shell --- it's an awful Hardmode accessory, but a Hardmode accessory nonetheless), and the third one is the Arctic Diving Gear, which allows you to skip an immense portion of the earlygame travel time by complete chance. The only thing these items have in common is that none of them have any reason to be in a high-tech laboratory constructed by Draedon of all people.
A unique, new item replacing all of these in the Lab's special chest would not only most likely be much better connected to the location you find it in, but would also allow for a little more earlygame diversity in actual builds and do so consistently, rather than just letting the player skip some significant bit of earlygame based on RNG.

**Make dragonfolly not enrage for a few seconds after spawning**

(I'm going to refer dragonfolly as "birb" for ease)
Birb is a fast-paced boss which attack consists of dashing, summoning feathers and spawning servants. Birb's behaviors are if you're 75 blocks away from birb or being out of the jungle for at least 3 seconds, it will enrage, gaining increased aggression and feather speed. If both conditions are met, it'll gain 65% DR.

The spawning conditions of mobs are here: https://terraria.gamepedia.com/NPC_spawning#Spawning_Basics . If you read the wiki, birb will almost always spawn enraged since it spawns far away from the player, getting stuck on blocks and your first instinct will more likely than move away and possibly making birb further away from you causing it be able to dash with mach speed makes you get a cheap, undodgeable hit and more often than not you'll get hit for +150 damage. These are videos that show how birb can be a bit unfair at times(ignore me being one shot, I just happen to be using armageddon at the time) https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/697433383793459234/786141676636864522/Terraria__Better_than_life_2020-12-09_14-28-17_Trim.mp4

TL;DR, when birb spawns, it gets enraged almost immediately and when it chooses to do a dash it leaves the player with no reaction time, hitting the player and dealing a massive amount of damage

**Nerf Frog Leg to give way to other jump speed boosts in Calamity.**

Frog Leg is probably one of the dumbest accessories base Terraria has ever introduced, with 48% jump speed boost (that translates to 48% ascent speed boost on wings) from fishing pre-boss. This thing can last a player not only throughout the vanilla progression, but also throughout most of Calamity's post-ML. Nerfing the accesory by reducing its effectiveness in some way would not only make the accessory less absurd statistically, but also giving way to other jump speed boosts in Calamity that got overshadowed by Frog Leg (like Statis' Ninja Belt and Void Sash).

Leviathan Ambergris is a expert mode drop that provides some damage and defensive benefits when underwater, while providing a tiny benefit while out of water.

Rework Underworld Generation to be better for combat/arenas

?

Hell generation is pretty bad. It's so bad that you're forced to build a bridge across hell to fight the main boss of the underworld, or suffer with the erratic lumps of ash and hell houses that sometimes completely block your pathway. Additionally, it forces two other bosses, Brimstone Elemental and Hell Providence, to be a pain to build arenas for. You often times have to blow up space with dynamite, and then place down platforms, all while being harassed by enemies that are on-tier threats. Making the underworld's generation not as icky would make fighting these bosses and crafting their arenas a lot more tolerable.

**Make player-inflicted debuffs stronger based on how many are afflicted onto the target.**

❔ : Right now, there are player-inflicted debuffs that're literally just straight upgrades to others (example: On Fire vs Holy Inferno). If combining player inflicted debuffs multiplied their strength, it'd encourage using a wide array of debuffs (and the weapons and consumables that'd inflict them). DoT debuffs are almost entirely useless throughout most of the game, especially in the endgame. This suggestion would not only make DoT debuffs stronger, but it'd also encourage using debuffs that aren't just the strongest ones available.

For example, combining On Fire and Holy Inferno would increase both of their DPS, similar to how Oiled works with Vanilla's fire debuffs.

Most main debuffs in calamity are DoT's or just in general things to do with overall dps but the problem with that is at some point u can barely notice them because it's so normal to loose health over time during battle. But if Some of them were more unique, let's say if brimstone flames wasn't a DPS debuff but an actual more noticeable and interesting debuff it would feel more special, since brismstone is the main debuff in the game it should be more than just a DoT or not a DoT at all
maybe it could give you a slight neusea effect, or smth, maybe holy inferno could make your screen gray-scale for a while, idk those are just ideas I thought at the top of my head but yeah
My point is, there's so many DoT's in calamity and not enough unique debuffs that are actually debuffs so replace or rework some of them into something more special

Revamp Death's environmental effects to be proper effects and not just glorified instagibs when unprepared.

❔
As of right now, Death's environmental effects are an earlygame nuisance at best, with all of them save for lightning being easily mitigated with basically any actual items worth their salt. This generally forces the player to bring a specific item or buff to a fight they otherwise would never need or want to bring that item to or face what is effectively a drawn-out instakill for being in the wrong place at the wrong time, and they have a much harder time being actually effective at any point where the player has actual stuff. The proposed solution is essentially to make these effects discourage entering certain areas early on, but not completely gate them off (a couple of examples on what this means can be found within the embedded image). This would make these effects more enjoyable to put up with early on and allow them to be made much more interesting than they currently are.

**Make charge-based Draedon tools**

I thought some day: what if we added some tools, that can be accelerated for a while, for example, building underground and borrowing caves. Pickaxes are mining area 1×1, so we have to use buffs to make it fast, hammers are pretty annoying, because we just can't take the walls down fast, not only because of doing it slow, but because of the same mining area as pickaxes. And then I remembered about Draedon Energy Cells, and that we could have some kind of tools, which speed and area of mining could be increased by charging it. For example, we can make a martian laser drill much more useful by upgrading it up to some kind of Draedon's mining drill prototype, make a really useful hammers and many stuff like this could be done.
But also for balancing it, at 0% charge level tools will be as usual ones: no extended area and with a medium mining speed.

**Add Draedon's Arsenal accessories and armor which consume charge or synergize specifically with Arsenal gear**

Currently, every other major weaponry tier has accessories and armor with it, but the Labs have none. The additional effects gained from using charged armor/accessories could make Draedon weapons more viable, specifically against early game bosses, and give more advantage to using Arsenal weapons as opposed to other, often better ones.

Another problem this could solve is a very pressing issue currently: managing charge levels when you don't have access to a charging station. Not everyone likes charging their weapons, and since max damage requires high charge levels, you will often see players crafting many copies of a weapon to get the most use out of their charge.

Players shouldn't be forced to do this, so an accessory or armor set that allows charge regain (or otherwise makes Arsenal weapons less need less micromanaging) through some mechanic other than the charging station would be a great step towards making Arsenal gear a viable option without needing multiple weapons.

True melee in Calamity is generally more accessible compared to vanilla, but it isn't by any means truly a viable option. The issue mainly resides on the bosses, be it vanilla or Cal, all of them having contact damage, making getting close and personal harder on top of the projectiles they spit out. Giving various means of reducing contact damage for true melee (e.g. debuffs like Temporal Sadness or buffs like Titan Scale somewhat) would make true melee-ing in Calamity a bit more fun and actually a viable melee option.

In addition, the debuff provides a key visual aspect to represent the theming of the staff, and functions very similar to Shellfish Claps, so it doesn't make much sense to me why a given enemy would be immune to it, while almost no enemies are immune to Shellfish Claps.

**Make hardmode bosses unable to spawn naturally after you just killed WoF in death mode**

Pretty self explanatory, giving the player a few in-game days to prepare for hardmode bosses after killing wall of flesh would make unfair circumstances where destroyer spawns and completely decimates you.

**Add Samuel's smile as an emote (:SamSmirk:)**

Sam's smile is kinda smug and similar to armsmirk at first glance, but it both gives off a "hiding the pain" and "smug" feeling at the same time. A smile that's so sarcastic it's like an ink blob test, conveying many different emotions. Considering Calamity is extremely hard and I've seen tons of painful moments where this emote could be used as a "hidethepain", I think it would be used quite a lot. Also, as much as it isnt really a reason, it is from MGR, and a lot of people here have played that game, so they would probably also use it, same as armsmirk .

**Have a public emote poll**

?

Emote suggs are very common, and barely go through any reasoning or approval throughout suggestions. There’s very few that don’t go through, and it’s pretty much just a free approval.

Thus, I suggest having an emote contest to fill 50-75% of our remaining slots, with multiple rounds of voting from publicly submitted emotes. This would allow us to efficiently add more emotes, as well as keep the emotes out of suggestions, where they’re very out of place.

**Tone down or remove the extra ores that can be found in planetoids, BUT add some new, unique pre-boss content to planetoids (and the Space layer in general) to compensate for this removal.**

❔
This is something of a long-standing feature that is integral to skipping most of the pre-boss gameplay loop, which tends to make the early parts of the game even more boring than they already are, regardless of whether or not you get done with 'em faster. Reducing the amount of, or removing, bonus ore veins that can be found in planetoids would mitigate this problem and make it so you can't just immediately get a full set of Gold/Platinum stuff with some rope and some wood. Adding some new content alongside this would ensure that people still have a reason to visit the Space layer aside from getting some quick metals.

Most bosses is Calamity are spawned by just holding up an item. There are a good number of outliers like:

Spawning by killing NPCs (like Anahita)

**Overhaul Aerialite's method of unlock/obtainment to give it more thematic consistency.**

❔
Aerialite is ancient, without question. Being one of the few original 1.0 materials to survive Calamity's 4 years+ of life and evolution, it's very thematically dissonant in terms of how it is initially presented. It is spawned upon killing Evil Bosses 2: Electric Boogaloo, it spawns in the Cavern layer, and it is a sky-based ore that is named around the sky and which makes crafts using materials from the Sky layer. The main problem is that its spawn location and spawn requirement are very dissonant from the metal's actual theme, despite it being fine progression-wise. It may be beneficial, therefore, to make Aerialite spawn higher up and on a different condition in order to make sure it stays consistent with its pre-established sky theme. Other options could include having new enemies spawn in the Sky layer to drop the stuff, and thus making it not necessarily a generated material at all, or allowing it to be farmed in a fashion similar to Chlorophyte or Tenebris.

**Rework recipes for Exodium Clusters and Solstice Claymore to use Galactica Singularities instead of the Lunar Fragments**

❔
The Exodium Cluster recipe is quite weird, it uses Luminite and the 4 fragments, although every item from Calamity that uses the 4 fragments combines them into one, the Galactica Singularity.
On another note, the Solstice Claymore does this exact thing, it uses the same quantity of fragments, but it's all divided and not combined into Galactica Singularities.
So my suggestion is quite simple, making the recipes require a Galactica Singularity instead of the 4 fragments, since they all require the same amount of fragments, and this way it will fit Calamity's recipes

rework the calamitas clone boss fight

The fight is extremely repetitive, it's just:

Calamitas hovers above u and shoots stuff
She switches position and shoots again
Goes back to hovering above u

That cycle is repeated for the entire battle except she spawns her brothers in her 2nd phase and dashes in her 3rd
Not gonna mention how the brothers are basically the twins with slightly different attacks

I personally think that that's a bit boring for a mid hardmode boss, especially a superboss clone, it's really underwhelming cuz it's not even a hard boss fight and the pattern is too easy to learn and predict for what seems like an important boss (I think she's important at least)

Conclusion: cal clone is too repetitive

Make The Perforator Hive unable to flip its sprite

The current sprite is amazing, but when the hive tries to ram you, the sprite starts looking wonky. The ichor streak on it flips with the sprite when it turns around to ram you again. Along with there being a mouth on both sides, rendering the mirroring of the sprite redundant. My idea is to prevent it from turning its sprite around so it can utilize both mouths, along with making the sprite look better.

This might seem kind of dumb, but I think dyes would work very well with this accesory, and as it's something many people use, it would change very many people's playthroughs for the better. For example, my character is using a blue-green color scheme, and the Brimling pet looks really good in Cyan Dye. I tested it out with the Rose Stone and then the HotE but it didn't do anything. Again, not a huge deal, but would improve the game significantly.

Make arms dealer or other NPC sell gel

Suggestion author: @marble cedar

#

Align Flamethrower ammo with the standards of other Ranged ammo types

Flamethrowers are a somewhat large subclass in Calamity, with over 20 weapons in total, but at the moment they can only use a single gel type that must be farmed for. Even though multiple other gel types exist, they cannot currently be used as ammo. And the current method to obtain gel in usable quantities for a Flamethrower is murdering King Slime over and over, which can be annoying with the amount of gel required to use Flamethrowers.

To make Flamethrowers easier to use and more "ranger-esque" in their playstyle (since bows and guns both have many ammo types), it would be welcome to see some changes to how Gel functions in Flamethrowers.

Ideas for possible changes include:
-Adding an infinite gel ammo source, crafted at the same time as the Endless Quiver and Infinite Musket Pouch.
-Allowing other gel types (Pink, Blighted, Purified) to be used in a Flamethrower, and have unique properties.

Put both of Crystyl Crusher's effects on left click, with right click as a way to cycle between the two functions.

Crystyl Crusher is notorious for its internal issues, making its main pickaxe function be put into right click instead of the other way around. Instead of just swapping the buttons (which is impossible on the scope of Terraria's code), the right click can instead be a "toggle" to swap between pickaxe and beam functions.

Doing this would not only make the right click function somewhat "free", but also avoid the common issues with Crystyl's current state. Some of those issues being putting channeled uses on right click and right clicking not harmful towards NPC housing when wanting to talk to them while holding the tool.

**Make it so that post moon lord weapon drop rates scale with what class you are mainly using**

Most post moon lord bosses are hard to beat, and when you do beat them, they will most likely drop a weapon that is completely different from you're current class. This might seem fine during pre hardmode/hardmode, but this starts to be a problem for post moon lord bosses such as yharon because of the sheer difficulty of the boss. Doing this will make it so that 1 class only playthroughs are easier to complete and will make farming post moon lord bosses easier.

Make the Moon Lord weapon drops craftable with Luminite Bars

Moon Lord drops a rather large variety of weapons, even in Vanilla Terraria, and the Calamity Mod adds a rogue weapon as a drop. It can be very time-consuming to fight the Moon Lord over and over again just to get the one weapon you want, so it may be prudent for some of these weapons to be craftable. Since Supreme Calamitas' weapon drops can also just be crafted with Shadowspec Bars, this isn't unprecedented.

**Replace the Brimstone Monsters in SCal's fight.**

?

SCal's fight is slow, methodical, and pattern based. However, as soon as the Brimstone Monsters spawn, it's nowhere close to a similar fight. Due to the speed and ridiculously high damage of the Brimstone Monsters, you have to move at a pretty rapid pace around the arena (especially in Death Mode due to the tiny arena size.), or risk taking around half of your health. Additionally, it's much harder to see anything due to the Brimstone Monsters covering up projectiles.

The player should be forced to move in SCal’s fight, and not just stay in one place, but I don't think that the current iteration with Brimstone Monsters is very fair when considering how the rest of SCal's fight works.

An alternate solution would be to actually make use of the SCal arena, separating it into sections that slowly burst into brimstone flames, before cooling off. This would force the player to move at a moderate pace, while not blocking their visuals.

Murasama is a reference to the weapon owned by Jetstream Sam (or Samuel Rodrigues), and the sheath the weapon has a rifle mechanicsm that allows the blade to be launched at ridiculous speed.

Not only integrating this mechanicsm into the mod's Murasama would signify the reference, it would also give the weapon a slight ranged capability, as the instant unsheathing can be used to deal massive damage from a distance, probably at the exchange of needing to retrieve the weapon once launched.

Trim down lower tiers of accessory modifiers.

The way accessory modifiers are designed right now is tiered into 4 tiers per type (take example of damage boosting ones: Jagged, Spiked, Angry and Menacing). This system can definitely be seen as encouraging minmaxing, as people would just go for the best one and dare wasting money on Goblin Tinkerer as much as it would take.

Making accessory modifiers being only one of each type (with adjusted stats to compensate) would diminish the minmaxing nature of reforging, and makes reforging accessories actually give a sense of variance.

The reason I think that should be done is because it would make brimstone elemental look more powerful and would make the fight more visually appealing since that attack is so frequent,
It could potentially also serve as a telegraph when the laser splits into projectiles.

**Lessen the visual effects of many endgame weapons**

This is pretty self explanatory, however many weapons near the endgame of calamity have particle effects that nearly cover the screen, adding too much visual clutter, this would not be a major problem if calamity were where it's at now, but considering the mod is intended to expand, more bosses' projectiles at the near endgame stage (Post-Yharon 1) are covered by your own weapon. Some are almost completely invalidated as viable weapons because it's too difficult to see incoming damage. This is especially true for Scal since you're restricted to such a small arena, where near-perfect movement is a must. Some examples of endgame particles that provide too much clutter IMO:
Voidragon
Red Sun
Exoblade
Heavenly Gale (tornados)
Subsuming Vortex

These are just a few listed, a lot of weapons provide so much visual clutter to a point where picking your weapon not based on attack preference or dps but the ability to see the enemy is the right choice.

Also note this could be approached in any way from a setting to change the opacity of such effects to straight up changing the effects if the community warrants this idea as a whole necessary.

**Give the tactical plague engine a chance to not consume Ammo**

The tactical plague engine is a post moon lord minion crafted from the black hawk remote and various plague themed materials. It is unique among other minions as it uses bullets in order to attack. This doesn't seem that bad when you have 4-5 minions, but at the point where you get the plague engine you will most likely have 10+ minion slots, in which case it can easily tear through an entire stack of bullets in a couple minutes. This is a major issue with expensive bullets such as holy fire. I recommend that the plague engine is given a 50-75% chance to not consume ammo. This will allow you to keep them attacking for longer without spending lots of money buying bullets to craft with or farming for materials such as unholy essence or chloryphite (sorry if i misspelled that).

Post-Skeletron Dungeon Weapons are pretty worthless, due to being easily outclassed both by Slime God Drops, and by Shadow Chest/Hellstone upgrades. There's practically no reason to use any of them, as they are either immediately upgraded into something else, outclassed, or are just plain bad like Aqua Scepter.

There's a couple ways to fix this problem, such as making certain ones not instantly upgraded (Muramasa and Handgun), as there's no reason to use them otherwise. Another method could be giving more unique status effects to the weapons, or making them pierce through walls like the Dark Casters' attacks.

**Move Bloodstone to post-Polterghast**

Bloodstone is a super cool crafting material, making a lot of super fun weapons. However, so much stuff happens after Providence dies, and unless you grinded beforehand, you're going to be ignoring it until you make Bloodflare armor anyway.

Another consequence of making Bloodstone post-Providence is that it severly limits the armor sets you can use until her death. Much like Geodes and Uelibloom are available at the same time, and Cosmilite and Ascendant Spirit Essence are the same tier, making Bloodstone post-Polter would allow players to craft a different armor, namely Bloodstone, before the defeat of Provi.

Finally, Bloodstone is powerful. For as ignored as it is, Bloodstone weapons can be used against DoG, unlike every Provi weapon set. This means that a minimal amount of rebalancing would have to occur, only requiring the tweeking of a couple of damage values.

Making Bloodstone post-Polterghast would allow more variety and consistency in armor, as well as airing out a very dense amount of weapons available at each phase, and give more use to a powerful but underused set of gear.

**Buff infinite piercing resistance on worms.**

Currently the way pierce resistance works is that the weapon damage is cut by number of piercing. This doesn't apply to infinite piercing ones, where their damage is only halved. This makes many infinite piercing weapons absolutely shred worms no problem, considering a decent lineup. Reworking the resistance on infinite piercing projectiles would make worms not be able to just die to infinite piercing weapons.

A proposal to this change can be, but won't be limited to making the infinite piercing resistance cut damage by a percentage on each hit.

**Move Ravager to post-Provi, reworking and upgrading it as seen fit, and change Bloodstone to be related to it/unlocked on its death.**

❔
The short answer: Ravager and Bloodstone are both thematic messes, but together they have the potential to create a unique boss with unique unlocks and which isn't strictly necessary for post-ML progression, while also alleviating the thematic dissonance that exists at Provi's tier due to the inclusion of Bloodstone.

**Rework Daedalus Armor**

Daedalus armor is a generalist all-class armor unlocked upon beating cryogen, the first hardmode boss. However, a generalist armor option simply isn’t needed for all classes except for summoner and rogue. This is due to the ore armor sets that are in a similar place in progression. Adamantite and titanium (due to the nerf) act as generic options for all three classes, as does hallowed armor, obtained only a little bit further on in progression. This means that another generalist armor for these classes simply isn't needed. These classes also have orichcalcum for damage and palladium for survivability. With so many vanilla armors covering those classes, I suggest that daedalus either get reworked similarly to reaver, or for it to become rogue/summoner exclusive. This would give the armor a more distinct identity while avoiding invalidating vanilla sets.

**make the two astrum deus worms in phase 2 distinguishable**

In phase two, Astrum Deus splits into two, and just killing one of the worms will end the fight, So most players will basically focus on one worm and ignore the other, however, both the worms look exactly the same and its very hard to properly differentiate between the two worms with just your plain eyes. As of now, we need to look at their health bars to distinguish them from one and the other, which can mess up dodging because we either have to focus on the health bar and see if we are attacking the correct worm, or we need to dodge and hope we are attacking the currect worm.

to remedy this, just make the 2nd have have a slightly different shape/colour. simply making the Blueish parts of the 2nd worm orange or something like that should be enough.

** Add a crimson variant to the Cursed Capper **

The cursed Capper is a weapon that requires cursed flamed and is used to create powerful weapons like the Dodu's Handcannon and the Prideful Hunter's Planar Ripper. Problem is, there is no crimson/ichor variant of this weapon, making these weapons extraordinarily difficult, if not, impossible to obtain in a Crimson World. So I suggest an alternative to the cursed capper that uses ichor instead of cursed flames, and can be used as a substitute to the cursed capper to make the aeries, which makes these powerful weapons.

**Increase the information Amidias gives you after each major stage of the game**

In my experience playing Calamity is a bit cumbersome due to the vast amount of new content added. While this content is amazing and wonderful it becomes confusing as to what becomes available or what a player should aim toward at which stage of the game. A solution already exists which is the Calamity Wiki however spending hours combing through the wiki on a playthrough can be quite irritating. Adding more information about the different stages of the game to Amidias' quotes could help reduce the wiki-reliance of the mod. Some of the aspects of the game Amidias could hint to or speak about could include new ores, bosses, events that have become available or suggesting weapons, armour, etc. would greatly reduce the struggle of new and experienced players in this regard.

**Rework Astral armor.**

Being an omniclass armor, this doesn't even have anything remotely interesting to be dissected. The buff bonuses on each piece isn't relatively enticing since none of the buffs really matter when Omniscience Potion exists. The set bonuses are nothing interesting either. Falling stars on hit? Extremely bland. Pure stats? This gives no actual substance of having armor pieces in the first place, with each piece doesn't actually give much stats beyond increased movement speed.

Reworking the armor from ground up would make the armor actually able to be designed in an interesting way, especially since Titan Heart armor, a similarly themed armor, is way more interesting than Astral is.

Cold Divinity is by far my favorite item in the game and I often use it even when there are better summon weapons available at that stage of progression. I am very satisfied with it and would actually like to give props to the devs for making such a cool and unique summon weapon. My only nag is that the right click takes a really long time to trigger and its damage payout seems very lackluster even with 30+ ice shards.

Give Yharon different roars to indicate his attacks

Yharon is a boss with many subphases along with many attacks. His roar is to indicate when he is going to attack. The only problem is that he uses 2 roars for all of his attacks, and 1 of the roars is barely ever heard. This makes it hard for all players because not only does the roar offer no hints whatsoever, you are constantly focused on dodging his attacks, fireballs, and tornadoes. My solution for this would be to give Yharon different roars for different types of attacks. A deep roar for his fast charge, a long roar for his bullet-hell attacks etc etc. This would allow for players to have a better indication of what attacks Yharon will do

Improve Supreme Calamitas’s dash telegraph to better tell when she will actually dash.

The fade-out telegraph currently only tells you that she’ll dash as her next attack but doesn’t tell when that will happen. While this is less of an issue if you memorise how long each attack lasts, there are also factors which interrupt attacks, such as her invincibility phases. Making it more accurately tell when SCal will dash - e.g. having her fade out progressively until she dashes - will improve it as a telegraph.

**Add a weapon obtained from fishing in the Sulphurous Sea**

Every other mod-added biome that the mod adds (well, except the Abyss) has a weapon fish that can be obtained directly after the biome generates. The Sunken Sea has the Sparkling Empress, the Brimstone Crag has the Dragoon Drizzlefish and the Astral Infection has the Gacruxian Mollusk and the Polaris Parrotfish. This is an awkward inconsistency. Shadow chest loot doesn't count, since 1. It's obtainable after Skeletron, not at any stage and 2. The weapons not uniquely obtained from fishing (similar to Sunken and Astral Crates, which only drop weapons after certain bosses are defeated).

I suggest adding a weapon fished up in the Sulphurous Sea. The type of weapon doesn't really matter, but it would preferably be a Summon weapon, since it's the only class without a fishable weapon.

**Make the Sentinals in the DoG fight a constant, and an actual phase in the Dog fight itself.**

The first time you fight DoG, his sentianals appear to defend him between phase 1-2, this is great, however it's exceptionally easy to kill all three, and is just an easy phase, worse yet, it only happens the first time.
The sentinals are basically the DoG's providence "Profaned Guardians", in my eyes, and providence has them appear in her fight just the same. I feel like, instead of DoG just having the sentinals once, and have it basically be a free phase, the sentinals should appear in each and every fight, and all at once.

A problem with this would be ceaseless void, as he might be a bit to handle with all three there, but perhaps just nerf some of his gravity if the other two are alive?

I think this change would work great for the DoG fight, sentinals are already pretty easy, and quite fun, and the phase where you fight them with DoG is quite free usually, and not that interesting, instead, if they were like this, they would have an interesting part in the fight, it wouldn't be too hard to fight all three at once, but it would actually be difficult compared to the current part of just shredding them through the first try.

This would also solve the issue of the sentinals being quite lacking in their content, they're all fun bosses, except for the fact that you fight them once or twice (ceaseless a few more times for ceaseless hunger potions), and then just leave them. They hold little to no threat, and you can just breeze through all three like nothing. Instead, if they were refought in the DoG fight, and all three at once, it'd be an interesting part of the fight forcing you to not only know all three individual bosses quite well, but also react quickly to multiple foes who can be a threat to you.

Again, ceaesless may need to have gravity nerfed a little for this, but I don't think it requires much else balancing at the surface of it.

Worm bosses in calamity have an period in which the boss has 99% DR to allow it to unwind and not be immediately melted by piercing weapons. For most other worm bosses bosses this is a reasonable time span, but for astrum deus it seems to be far too long, lasting much longer than it takes for the boss to uncoil.

This makes the fight incredibly unfair, as you cannot do damage to it even after it has already unwound itself. It is also an issue when the boss splits, leaving you essentially defenseless for a few seconds after both worms have uncoiled, while both can still do their full damage. This only makes the boss less fun than it already is, especially in multiplayer where it is already incredibly buggy.

Evil islands of opposite world evil that spawn in the top corner of the world is a substantial issue in evil world playability (or a lack thereof) in Calamity. This gives a grossly cheap access to both evils in a single world, which invalidates the actual function of the game giving you a choice in the first place. With that in mind, this is no more QoL in the sense of helping the player out, this is QoL in the sense of destroying a major chunk of whatever is left on world evil design.

Furthermore, a load of other QoL mods can give way to both evils instead of having Calamity diminishing the value in replayability of world evils. Removing these islands would make choosing world evils actually worth a damn.

For Visual clutter, due to the nature of Terraria, there is an immense amount of visual information that a player needs to take in to be successful in whatever they're doing. Requiring an additional check to a corner and not having the relatively information rich Health bars in the same location as other information could distract the player.

Firstly (the reason why it should only drop from one of the bosses), if a player doesn't have the Aero Stone by Hardmode, they can easily just farm the much easier boss, DS, for the item instead of AS, making this a redundant drop from AS. It is also the only HotE component that is obtained from multiple bosses, which means that making it AS-exclusive would fix the consistency issue there.

Secondly (the reason why it should drop from AS instead of DS specifically), right now, Aero Stone is the only HotE component that drops in Pre-Hardmode. Making it only an AS drop makes it consistent with the other HotE materials in that it would only drop from one boss and it would only be obtained in Hardmode. Perhaps a buff would be required in order to make it viable for Hardmode, but considering the stats of the other (Hardmode-exclusive) HotE stones, 3% damage and a small amount of extra mobility is par for the course.

**buff most HotE components**

As they are right now they are nothing more than crafting materials, there's no reason for you to equip them over any other accessories since their stats are unnoticeable, they're either useless stat accessories ( chaos stone, aero stone, bloom stone etc) or minions that usually miss (rose stone)
Ofc there are some ok HotE components like eye of the storm but it still isn't something you would equip over the usual accessories at that tier
So buffing the components to be a bit more noticeable would make them more that just crafting ingredients

Hardmode Ore Slimes

To most players, the start of hardmode is usually the dullest part of terraria. This is usually due to having to farm out all of the hardmode ores, especially the last tier, which you need so much of but at the same time are extremely rare. This can be solved by adding slimes that drop titanium/adamantite, similar to the ones that drop aerialite and perennial ore etc. It'll overall boost the hardmode experience for most players and makes ore armor something that isn't a pain to farm for since you need so many bars to make it.

Make sulphurous sea and brimstone biomes harder to make

Currently the minimum amount of sulphurous sand needed to make the sulphurous sea biome is 31, and minimum slag for the brimstone crag is 50, which is incredibly low compared to other biomes requirements such as the snow biome needing 300 snow or ice blocks. This makes it incredibly hard to use sulphurous sand or slag in builds or minibiomes without getting an unwanted background and enemy spawns.

Make old duke more like duke fishron.

Old duke is obviously a variant of duke fishron. But while duke fishron is loved by the vast majority of players, many dislike old duke. This is because duke has many qualities that make him perferable over old duke.

1: Duke fishron can be fought at any time in hardmode. This is because his fight is short, but very instense. Compared to bosses of the same tier, duke fishron has low hp. However, because the boss fight is very intense and challenging, he is still a significant challenge. For example, plaguebringer golaith has 180,000 hp in revegance mode with 40% dr while duke fishron has 111,00 hp with 10% dr. This relatively low hp is what makes it possible to fight him pre-mechs. In contrast, old duke has 1,200,00 million hp, 50% dr most of the time, and 100 defense most of the time. The boss preceding him, polterghast, has 792,00 hp, 15% dr and 90 defense, for refernce. This hp and dr is a towering amount that would make any sort of out-offf progression fight with him nigh-impossible, removing much of the orginal appeal of duke fishron.

The final reason duke fishron is more liked is because he is more intuiative. Duke fishron dashes at the player, so the player instantly knows how to avoid him. Old duke dashes are predictive, so the player does not intuitively know how to dodge him. This can be frusterating to newer players, causing them to quit the boss and simply do DoG instead . Because of this, I suggest the addition of a brief phase at the begining intended to teach the player old dukes special dash ability. This phase could be adjusted with the mode.

Add more Post-Moon Lord spears

I noticed that the same spear would be used against Yharon-Phase 2, SCal, and Boss Rush (Nadir). So, it would be very nice if there was some kind of melee spear you could make with Auric Tesla Bars. Also, there's no new spears obtainable by defeating Providence, so add one out of Bloodstone or Uelibloom. There are also several holes in Spear progression, mainly Pre-Skeletron and Pre-Plantera. In general, melee is just a really weird class in the way that it caters towards swords, and I'd like to see some more variety. Plus, melee has the most weapons of any class in the game, yet it's one of the most monotonous. I would really like more ideas being put in to sub-classes and making all classes equal in terms of power and content.

Make Defender Medals Craftable

Old One's Army is known to be one of the worst events due to how long and grindy it is for a reward of what? 25 defender medals just to repeat it a couple more times for 15-20 minutes each time to buy an entire set of tavernkeep gear. Tavernkeep gear are easily avoided due to the grindy nature of this event and its difficulty. By making them craftable there would be more options to go for the gear instead of skipping it completely. It could be a hard recipe but then at least it would be obtainable easier and the tavernkeep could actually be useful besides the ale.

Not an enormous deal, but when you play mage, getting one of those weapons is very nice. What isn't so good is hearing that loud "use sound" very often, because of the style of the weapons themselves, which are meant to be spammed.

Make Bloodworms Craftable

I feel like many people do not like fighting Old Duke and tend to skip him. One of the possible reasons is that the fight could take many attempts and having to go through a long event or scrounge for bloodworms every time you want to fight him is horrible, and very unusual for a post moon lord boss. If bloodworms were craftable or even non consumable the fight would be much less frustrating. The recipe I suggest is a truffle worm+ 5 bloodstone cores, but a different one could be used.

Tie the progression line to Counter/Evasion Scarf into something else

Don't get me wrong, the Evasion Scarf is amazing, but it seems lack-luster as once you upgrade the Counter Scarf into the Evasion Scarf, as there is nothing after that. As the title says, I am suggesting tying the progression
into something beyond that, because as the bosses become bigger, stronger, and harder, you feel like you are tied back by this one item that you have had for so long in the progression.
I would suggest adding it into a pre-existing dash item, just to make the dash progression lines not any more dominant than they already are.

Some ideas include a fish to make Sulphurskin Potions (since those are currently locked behind EoC), and a weapon fish, since the Sulphurous Sea is the only mod-added biome that doesn't have one.

**Make the God Slayer Armor Mechworm summon not take up any minion slots. Alternatively, replace it with a unique summon. **

Note: I realize the God Slayer Summon set is getting removed in the future. However, I know Auric Tesla has this effect as well. I'm not sure how they will change in the future, so I wanted to suggest this anyways.

Right now, the Mechworm being summoned doesn't really have a point. For God Slayer, you are going to either fill out with Mechworms anyways (which means the armor doesn't have to summon it in the first place) or will be replaced by a superior summon by temporarily taking the chestpiece off. The same would go for Auric Tesla, however you cannot use the chestpiece trick to replace the Mechworm.
I believe these summons should either not take up any slots or (since I have doubts that it would be code-able in the first place) replace them with a unique summon. Having a separate summon would be very useful since it can target separately from your main army of summons (or use-all-slots summons).

If there are any other sources which do this (where it summons something and it takes up summon slots) those should be changed as well. The only situation in which I think this would be OK is if the summon is unavailable at the point at which you can get the armor/accessory. And even then, there may be better summons you'd rather have depending on the situation.

Rework the Flak Kraken to be a more direct upgrade from the Flak Toxicannon mechanically.

❔
Flak Kraken and Flak Toxicannon. Indeed, these are two of the most mechanically unique weapons in Calamity's entire ranged arsenal, and to that end they're both quite alright...but:
Flak Kraken encourages simply keeping your cursor over the enemy whereas Flak Toxicannon requires a decent bit more skill.
Now, I know both of these concepts are enticing to any average person, but to be blunt, the former concept is already virtually the entire playstyle of any ranged players, with just about any ranged weapon worth its salt having immense projectile speed (and that's not counting ammo speed and accessory bonuses!). Flak Toxicannon's gimmick makes the weapon extremely interesting to use, and it's a damn shame one of the more fascinating ranged weapons the mod has goes into the epitome of "playing ranger is a point-and-click adventure". On top of that, the HM Abyss """set""" already has the Megalodon, a ranged weapon which doubles down on the point-and-click-adventure-style gameplay! With all this in mind, changing the Flak Kraken to be more like the Flak Toxicannon would make it more interesting to work with, providing a skill-based alternative to the mighty Megalodon at the same tier.

The Brothers phase of Scal's fight is pretty infamous for being boring and pathetically easy, essentially being a free rest break to rebuff and heal up. The Brothers need something to make them more interesting.

Some suggestions could be lowering the projectiles spawned and making them more similar to their Clone counterparts, giving them their own projectiles and a dash. Alternatively they could function completely differently by buffing Scal herself and staying back.

However, both of those are just ideas and pretty much anything to make the Brothers less repetitive would be a pretty good improvement of the current version.

**Adjust Ceaseless Void’s fight to be more friendly to small arenas.**

The fight is very punishing to players without a large arena in comparison to Polterghast, another Dungeon boss. This is because in CV’s fight there are a lot of threats that appear at once that either quickly swarm you (the mobile Dark Energies) or reduce the space you can move through even further in a small arena (the Dark Energy rings), helping the other threats swarm you even easier. Additionally, while both Dungeon bosses have an enrage if in an open area, CV's enrage is overall more forgiving because of the stated problems. Adjusting the fight to solve these issues would help reduce the need for a large arena and make the tile enrage more forgivable to try and avoid. Some changes that could help solve this issue are:

increasing the size of the gaps in the Dark Energy rings
having the laser orbs and Dark Energy rings spawn less frequently

**Make the Community's Stat buffs increase more in comparison to game progression**

The Community is an extremely good equipment, and is very warranting of it's 1% drop chance given that you can get it at any point in the game. An issue with it though is that the Community is supposed to increase in strength as you progress in the game, giving the idea that you would be able to use it all the way up to Supreme Calamitas. However, this is not the case as the minute you get past ML, the Community instantly gets overshadowed by other post-ML equipment, and then it just straight up gets replaced by the Affliction after you defeat Polterghast. And, even after defeating Jungle Dragon, Yharon, the community still does not have a significant boost to warrant equipping it again. As ML is possible without the Community, it feels more like a wast of time than an actual necessary or even desired upgrade. Some suggestions are:

Make the Community have better upgrades after defeating DoG.
Add a combination item that involves the Community.
Add a unique effect to the community that makes it more desirable late game and makes the hours of farming for it worth the effort.

The game obviously doesn’t want this, since there is a penalty when activating revengeance mid-boss fight.

I recommend having them drop next to the treasure bags like how providence drops the elysian wings and the elysian dash. This solves the issue of cheesing revengeance drops without creating a hassle for actual revengeance players.

Mobility is just generally bad, like fuzzy carrot limits your vertical mobility, hook, use wings, and the inability to dash for what? the ability to move 5% faster when you can just use lighting boots or use shield of chuthulu to dash to gain distance. They are so situational and barely useful that it isn't worth using over the slime mount or unicorn and in general shouldn't be used due to wings and accessories giving better movement options than mounts provide.

I will list now all the mounts that are very bad and deserve a buff:

Fuzzy Carrot
Bee
Turtle
Baslisk
Pigron
Rudolph
Scutlix
Cute Fishron (even though its very good in a water arena, that's like the most situational thing I have ever heard, having to build an entire arena made of water just so this thing can maybe prove useful when you can just use the deep diver)

Power Creep has turned some that could have been ok to decent mounts in vanilla to useless mounts in calamity due to the better options. These mounts either are very restrictive, slow, or situational. I do not like seeing items being useless due to how vanilla balances them, I want to see everything to be used successfully.

**Add an item, or change DPS meter to allow the player know what are the effects of debuffs their weapons inflicts **

Currently we dont have a way in-game to know exactly what are the effects of their debuffs (DoT, DR and defense reduction etc.) , but many weapon, accessories, and even potions/flask like Mythril Knife stealth attack, Yanmei, Knife, and Abyssal Amulet basically rely on debuf(s) to do something to the enemy, having an exact way to know if a weapon, accessory, or potion/flask worth it to use or not.

**Cause enemies in Iron Heart mode to have an increased chance to drop health pickups**

Having used Iron Heart for a while, I find having no way to gain back health other than the occasional health pickup from defeated enemies less of an interesting challenge and more of a bother. While it is supposed to be a difficult challenge, I think it would be much more interesting if your only way to gain back health is by having enemies have an increased chance to drop health pickups of any sort.

This change, in my opinion, would make Iron Heart more satisfying to play, as your only way to survive would be to kill enemies and hope for a health pickup, instead of getting hit and hoping not to lose any more health, essentially having a set amount of hits before you respawn.

As a suggestion on how it could change for the better - since Iron Heart is based on Hollow Knight, replacing all health pickups with a unique health pickup that could scale with player health and/or enemy health, with the drop chance varying on how low your health is, would be a cute idea. Given this is a possible idea on how it could work, this should not be taken as how the item should work, rather a concept on how it could.

**Buff the DPS of damage over time debuffs applied onto enemies.**

DoT debuffs feel quite weak on-tier compared to weapon DPS, and the only way to make them work is to put them on a select number of weapons way under their intended tier. This is already an issue in vanilla, and Calamity doesn't seem to fix it. Drastically buffing the DPS of damage overtime debuff would make them actually a reliable source of damage instead of just either flavor or stat reduction (like defense).

**Rework Soul Seekers**

?

The Soul Seekers are a largely unimportant phase during both the Clonelamitas and SCal fight, only really serving to screw up visibility in the latter. They have low health, die quickly, and are even less important than the brothers in SCal’s fight. I would suggest reworking them to be permanent additions for the remainder of the fight, firing the wobbly Brimstone Flame Skulls present in certain parts of SCal’s fight. This would both introduce the player to the projectile, and make the Soul Seekers much more noticeable overall.

Allow Gravistar Sabaton to consume flight time when the fall speed boost is used, and rebalance its additional effects based off flight time used.

Gravistar Sabaton feels incredibly rigid in how it works. You can hold it for a maximum of 5 seconds, but with a fixed cooldown, making the use of the fall speed boost in actual fights a lot more annoying than just grabbing Slime or Bean mounts. Having the accessory consume flight time and rebalancing its cooldown and explosion effect based off it would make the accessory a lot more fluid in usage and generally a lot more favorable in use.

**Remove the attacks Ravager gains as limbs are destroyed.**

Overall, most of them don’t add much to the fight, as they disappear in Phase 2 and only the laser burst is a noticeable threat; the leg sparks only pose a threat if you decide to move under Rav and the fireballs serve the same purpose as the lasers and don’t do much outside an enclosed area (Golem’s arena). Removing them would simplify the transition between phases and further help distance Rav as a boss from Golem, since two of the attacks belong to Golem.

There's currently not a lot of reason to use the Calamity Boss Health Bar except for the fact that it gives you precise info regarding health percentages. This is highly useful, as it lets you track how close a boss is to swapping phases.

**Fix various aspects about Cosmilite Bricks**

I love cosmilite bricks, but there are a lot of things that prevent them from being a great building block aside from their appearance. The only reason I didn't list them in the title is because there are quite a few

They can only be broken by the Blossom Pickaxe. This is very annoying if your Uelibloom has been in short supply, so you haven't made the Blossom Pickaxe yet. Making it broken with a copper pickaxe would make it much less tedious to break. This issue extends to a lot of other building blocks in Calamity.
1 cosmilite bar only translates to about 20 bricks. Despite DoG dropping quite a lot, if you didn't get enough from him, you'll waste a lot of precious bars getting more, bars that could go to more important. I think making one bar worth 30-40 bricks would make this admittedly small annoyance much less annoying.
The biggest issue IMO, the furniture is crafted at a Draedon's Forge. That means that even after obtaining the bricks you still have to go through the grind of getting the Forge. Making the furniture crafted at an Ancient Manipulator or Anvil would go a long way toward making the Cosmilite brick set a lot more commonly used.

reason: there are 2 bosses that i know about that make arena for themselves Scal and Yharon, and Yharon's arena is half made like every early game arena for a certain bosses
so having the only boss with a real arena not have a sentry to defeat him seems a little counter intuitive.
there is much less need to continuously summon new sentries because you and Scal are not flailing about all over the world, farther more the boss is mostly IN the arena making the fight pretty fair.

As an alternative to a faq, the CAL doc could instead be pinned to the channel and the channel name could be changed to "lore discussion read pins", so that people can consult it beforehand and have and overall better understanding of the more obscure parts of the mod's lore before joining in on discussion.

**Add more true melee weapons that function like Murasama's swing**

After recently completing my first playthrough of Calamity as melee, I felt that it was a shame that the most fun weapon for me to use, Murasama, had no other weapons like it before post yharon. Having a radial aiming sprite based melee weapon is extremely fun and engaging to play with, and to my knowledge this only belongs to Murasama, Phaseslayer, and Arkhalis. Arkhalis to Murasama is a massive gap for players wanting to play with this type of weapon, and while I'm not asking for Murasama level size, effect quality, and damage output, I feel more weapons like this could be introduced to bridge this gap and introduce the choice of more control with a true melee weapon vs more range and flexibility with other melee weapons. The pre hardmode Phaseblades and the hardmode Phasesabers seem like prime candidates to me to receive this treatment, for example.

***Add a toggle that disables Astrum Deus' spawn animation. Why?***

As it is right now, players have to wait a total of 16 seconds between the time that you use the Titan Heart at the beacon and when you can actually deal damage to Astrum Deus. Not everyone has the patience for this, and it can get annoying, especially when no-hitting as you generally need to spawn the boss quite a lot. I propose making an option to disable the animation of the particles leaving the beacon and having Astrum Deus spawn in a similar manner to Golem (spawning where he usually would, above the player's head). This would cut down on the time that it would take for him to spawn, making it less time consuming to fight the boss. The toggle would be so that people can still experience the spawn animation.

**Remove Combination Material Items**

Calamity has very well designed weapons, and to accompany them well designed and balanced crafting recipes, however some of the crafting recipes seems to have something that my brother would call "crafting to craft". These are additional crafting steps for the soul purpose of making the player do more work without adding anything to the game. some examples of this would be: Galactica Singularity, Life Alloy, Core of Calamity, and Ascendent Spirit Essence. These items are combinations of multiple resources, however making these before turning them into weapons/armor/accessories seems pointless when the recipe could as easily just use the raw materials. The only reason I could think of other than to be mean to the player for needing these would be if an NPC sold them, but that is not the case. I suggest removing these items from the game to lower the amount of crafting steps to make an item while still keeping the same amount of required resources. Another option would be to create an alternate source for these items, like boss drops from DoG, or just adding a way to uncraft them if you need the raw materials alone.

An alternative option would be to make an NPC that sells these combination items, giving a point to needing them (However this would probably be difficult for the devs).

The proposed changes are as follows:
Buffing the damage to 20% and crit to 10% and making the boosts begin to activate differently, 4% dmg and 2% crit at 80%-100%, 8% and 4% crit at 60%-80, and goes on.

**Make the Post-DoG events more interactive, possibly with new enemies**

?

Currently, the Post-DoG events are incredibly bland and boring. You just wail away with a high area damage weapon, and watch everything die until bosses spawn and one shot you. While this is true partially for the vanilla events, the problem is exacerbated by Post-ML movement accessories, meaning that only Pumpking and Ice Queen really pose a threat if you know what you're doing.

T3 Acid Rain by contrast is much more interesting, as it not only mauls you if you're even close to the ground, but also fires projectiles at you constantly from both the Nuclear Terror miniboss and normal enemies. Changing the Post-DoG events to be more similar to T3 Acid Rain would make the events more interesting and fun to do.

📎 Brimmy_is_bully.mp4

**Give brimstone elemental a delay before doing attacking during her bullethell**

Brimstone elemental has 3 attacks, although we'll just be focusing on 2 for today. Brimstone elemental's first attack is rapid fire of brimstone hellfireballs and a spread of 4 brimstone darts but for ease we'll call this the shotgun attack. Her second attack is firing a ring of 12 brimstone darts along with a barrage of 6 brimstone hellblasts and while doing this attack she'll be covered by her rose petals, being highly resistant to damage. For the sake of ease we'll be calling this attack the bullethell attack.

In her later phases she could choose to do her shotgun attack then continues flying around, shotgun attack then bullethell attack and sometimes bullethell attack then shotgun attack. If she does choose to do her shotgun attack and bullethell attack consecutively she can shoot the first of multiple rounds of bullethell attack right after her shotgun attack as seen bellow(ignore me using halimeme or getting one shot, i just happen to be using the weapon and armageddon at the time CompleteFailure ). Now the problem arises when you're not too far from her and shoots high speed brimstone hellblasts at you while the brimstone darts from her shotgun attacks are still close to you almost instntly, giving you no reaction time as a brimstone dart moves closer to you forcing you to take a hit. Giving her a slight delay before attacking her next attack in lower health would fix this

TL;DR, brimstone elemental can shoot her fast moving brimstone hellblasts immediately after shooting brimstone hellfireballs and brimstone darts, giving you no reaction time and forcing you to take a hit.

**Make Voodoo Demons drop a stackable consumable version of the Guide Voodoo Doll which can be crafted into an Accessory variant**

During the underworld grind, one will inevitably run into the issue of inventory space being clogged up by Guide Voodoo Dolls, which are classed as accessories and thus don't stack, despite the fact the main method of using them is to destroy them in lava to summon the Wall of Flesh. Given the improvements to special boss spawners such as the Profaned Shard for Providence, I wish to propose that Voodoo Demons have a tweak whereby they drop a Guide Effigy that behaves much like the Voodoo Doll in that it can be thrown into lava to summon the Wall of Flesh, but stacks in the inventory like many other boss summons. Heck, one could have it so the effigies act like regular boss summons, calling said boss when used and the Guide is alive. To balance the lesser used aspect of the doll as an accessory to beat up the Guide with, I also propose that the Guide Effigy can be crafted at a Demon Altar into the vanilla Guide Voodoo Doll. In the same vein, one could also use the same mechanic with the Clothier Voodoo Doll and make a Clothier Effigy that when used at night, kills the Clothier and summons Skeletron. This proposition will save much needed inventory space during underworld visits and prevent you from missing a falling doll due to having fifteen others taking up space, helpless as it burns up and Death Approaches.

They're thrown, and that's about it. There's not a single thing keeping them apart of the base level beyond hitbox and visual size. Giving either or both unique distinctions would make these 2 subclasses basically not a copy of each other mechanically.

• Requiring emotes to be a certain size, to take up less space in voting/posting
• Limiting the amount of emotes posted per month to try to decrease the frequency of emote suggestions
• Requiring emotes to fill niches that current emotes do not fill.
• Limiting the amount an emote can be reposted, either for a certain amount of time or indefinitely.

Emote suggestions have been a pain point for the suggestion-discussion community and I feel having an outline for what is and isn't allowed could alleviate the headache and stop the arguments over what should and shouldn't be a valid emote.

**Reduce projectiles for some weapons**

I just started playing modded, and I play a lot with my friends. I recently started my first modded playthrough. Obviously, I've been using calamity. I'm using ranger right now, with elemental blaster as my main weapon. This causes a little lag in multiplayer. However, my friend uses elemental disk, which causes a crazy amount of lag, making it very hard to dodge bosses. A suggestion to possibly enhance multiplayer is reduce the amount of projectiles for some weapons but compensate with additional damage.

**Give Providence a slight delay in between entering a cacoon, and firing cacoon stars**

Providence's cacoon stars attack is one of her most difficult attacks, especially in death mode. I think it really adds an extra layer of depth to the fight and is a very unique attack. That being said, I have had numerous experiences where I have been on top of providence's spire when she enters her cacoon. Because there is very little delay between when she enters the cacoon, and when she starts firing stars, I die almost immediately. It is also difficult to tell when she will enter a cacoon, so you really could be insta-killed at any point when you are too close to the boss. Adding a small (.5 second or so) delay between when she enters a cacoon and starts her attack can fix this issue.

**Improve the Plague Bringer Goliath Fight**

The Plague Bringer Goliath is a well designed boss, but it has some major issues, one being that it just feels like a weaker Duke Fishron. It does less damage, has slower movement speed, has less variety of attacks, and has less ranged attacks. If you can beat Duke Fishron, you can beat Plague Bringer Goliath, which is completely unfair as Duke Fishron can be taken out with base vanilla gear, let alone the massive power ups you get from playing Calamity. It just feels like a pointless add-on that only serves to give the player the Malachite if they are playing rogue, as all the other weapons are not necessary.

**Remove ammo damage and buff ranged weapon damage in exchange.**

Ammo damage in Terraria (and undoubtedly, Calamity as well) is one of the reasons ranger is both overpowered and boring. The existing ammo system makes it an arbitrary 2nd progression that you need to oblige if you want actual DPS.

Removing ammo damage and rebalancing ammo effects would make access to new ammos feel like adding into the variety of ammo, instead of forcing the player to use that specific ammo in order to not suffer.

**Give Old Duke some indicator, at least in Phase 1, that his dashes are predictive.**

Without external sources like the wiki, it’s jarring to figure out how OD’s dashes work in comparison to other tracking attacks (Brimmy’s laser, Moon Lord’s bolts), which have some indication that they are predictive, while OD’s dashes don’t and are performed quick enough to just cause confusion.

Giving them an indicator that they’re predictive, e.g. have OD’s sprite look at where it thinks the player will move, would make it an easier and smoother experience to get used to the fight. This indicator could gradually disappear after Phase 1, moving the fight back into its current state.

**Add the earth elemental in the heart of the elements**

The Earth Elemental in the current version of the mod doesn’t serve much of a purpose, as he only provides Arid Artifacts and a few weapons. Arid Artifacts are craftable, and the weapons are easily outclassed
By giving him a designated accessory drop, he would be less of a bother for players that are underground, especially early hardmode players, since it's not worth it to fight them.
On the same note, adding such item into the Heart of the Elements, he would be more relevant to the progression of the mod overall, since he already has an influence on the HotE's acquiring, by facilitating the spawn of sandstorms.

final note, he IS an elemental by name, so it seems fitting to be a part of the heart

**Buff Polterghast**

Polterghast's drops allow you to create some of the most powerful weapons in the game. While it is not a necessary boss, if you want to have a decent weapon for DoG, you will need to kill it. That being said, I have always found the boss to be way too easy, even in death mode. Its attacks are predictable, and it's really easy to just abuse life steal (because at this point every class seems to have good life steal). I even find the sentinels to be more difficult in most situations. I suggest that Polterghast either has some of its attacks reworked to be more difficult and less predictable, or at very least stops the player from using life steal with its projectiles, similarly to moon lord.

Have DoG occansionally do a unique attack after he shouts "A GOD DOES NOT FEAR DEATH" where he leaves a visual cue of two portals across the screen at a random direction from the player's position. DoG will then proceed to directly charge between the two portals at a high speed. The player will get a few seconds to react and run from the charge.

It's a small change but it'd be a nice nod to his lore since he likes to pop out of his pocket dimension and surprise attack his prey. And it'd make the end of the fight a little more memorable.

**Rebalance Wulfrum Armor for Rogue and Ranger**

Wulfrum armor is great for a starting armor that you get the materials for while simply exploring. However, it’s completely overshadowed when you play as either rogue or ranger. As rogue, you can literally just go to the snow biome, chop down a few trees and mine some snow and ice, and you have a better armor with much less effort. As ranger, you can go to the desert and kill a few vultures while getting some sand and you have much better armor and a really good set bonus with minimal effort. This allows players to literally ignore the entirety of wulfrum’s existence with those classes, when other classes rely on it as their pre boss gear. This would be fine if other classes had the option of a better armor at a lower cost, but currently, it’s just a free head start for rogue and ranger.

**Make dragonfolly not enrage for a few seconds after spawning**

(I'm going to refer dragonfolly as "birb" for ease)
Birb is a fast-paced boss which attack consists of dashing, summoning feathers and spawning servants. Birb's behaviors are if you're 75 blocks away from birb or being out of the jungle for at least 3 seconds, it will enrage, gaining increased aggression and feather speed. If both conditions are met, it'll gain 65% DR.

The spawning conditions of mobs are here: https://terraria.gamepedia.com/NPC_spawning#Spawning_Basics . If you read the wiki, birb will almost always spawn enraged since it spawns far away from the player, getting stuck on blocks and your first instinct will more likely than move away and possibly making birb further away from you causing it be able to dash with mach speed makes you get a cheap, undodgeable hit and more often than not you'll get hit for a lot of damage. These are videos that show how birb can be a bit unfair at times(ignore me being one shot, I just happen to be using armageddon at the time)((You can copy the link and paste it in a server somewhere else if you don't want to download them)

TL;DR, when birb spawns, it gets enraged almost immediately and when it chooses to do a dash it leaves the player with no reaction time, hitting the player and dealing a massive amount of damage

**Rework and retier Wulfrum armor.**

Wulfrum armor has been in a stiff competition with a lot of other early game armors, particularly Desert Prowler, Snow Ruffian and Victide. You exert roughly the same effort to get Wulfrum armor just for a worse version of Victide. Reworking and relocating the set would make the armor actually a feasible option to be used instead of having to compete for Victide for the rest of its life.

One idea to achieve this can be, but won't be limited to, making the armor omni-class (not catering to specific ones) later in the progression, with its set bonus reworked to involve the "supercharge" method from Wulfrum Pylons.

Vesuvius is a Legendary weapon that drops from Betsy. Betsy, a boss that you need to encounter by suffering through the first 6 tiers of Old One's Army post-Golem. Unlike most bosses with Legendary drops, Betsy's 1% chance of dropping Vesuvius is quite unjustified due to the difficulty of encountering her (on-tier) in the first place. Raising the drop rate for Vesuvius would make the effort to get the weapon roughly equal to getting Legendaries from other bosses.

Murky Paste drops from 2 of the jungle enemies, but there are already 3 jungle materials in vanilla, Murky paste could be removed and the bezoar recipe could be changed to just use jungle spores.
Beetle juice and Trapper bulb would also not cause any significant changes, and could be changed to a honey bottle on the vitamins recipe, and vines on the honey dew recipe.
You already know what the deal with ectoblood is.

**Add more items that only use one kind of mechanical boss soul**

I find it kind of annoying how, to get most of the post-mech upgrades, you need to beat all three mech bosses. In my experience, most people have much more trouble with one mech than another, so small gear upgrades that you could get from whichever you find easiest might make the whole of early hardmode more manageable.

Now, this part of the suggestion is a less important bit, but it'd also be nice if these upgrades could not use hallowed bars. It gets really annoying when you go above and beyond, beat a boss you normally couldn't, and then get way too few bars.

TL;DR minor gear upgrades using only souls of sight, might, or fright (and preferably not hallowed bars) could make the mech boss grind feel less grueling for people who have trouble with them.

**Convert the Old Duke’s Scales into an Old Duke-themed pair of wings.**

The Old Duke’s main accessory drop attempts to juxtapose Fishron Wings by offering defensive benefits, but ends up falling flat on it’s face as a stand-alone item due to its strange conditional damage boosts and awkwardly implemented debuff immunities. The scales aren’t worth picking up for these reasons; it’s effects are hard to actively maintain or even notice in many cases. Simply put, the accessory needs something new.

Since the post-polterghast tier currently lacks any, a good way to rework the scales may be to turn it into a pair of wings. It could still inherit more defensive effects at the expense of more mobility from other options, to keep it in line as an opposite to Fishron, if this aspect of the Old Duke’s Scales is to be retained. Gating a powerful alternative mobility option here would make Old Duke more worth killing than he currently is, and will open up more choices between post-moon lord mobility accessories.

Spam players can't really get time to build stealth enough to activate these without crippling their DPS temporarily, and stealth players would need to wait for a whole lot more since a good amount of stealth is consumed by these accessories.

Having these accessories work without consuming stealth would make these more versatile to use for both playstyles. Additionally, having stealth boosting the effects of these accessories would make the accessories still work as intended, with stealth somewhat affecting these accessories.

**Give Demon Shade Armor more buffs**

Demonshade armor is a good endgame armor, giving the player 10 extra minion slots, and well as a lot of defense and an array of buffs for other classes, but in many cases can be outmatched by the specific abilities the different variations of Auric Tesla. I suggest that Demonshade armor give another set bonus to give a reason to use it as you have to kill Supreme Calamitas to get it.

Make players far away from a boss not gain adrenaline

Give Providence a Unique Out of Biome "Enrage"

Currently, Providence and the guardians just go invincible when out of biome, without letting you damage it. This feels lazy and cheap compared to many other bosses like plantera or golem in revengeance+. With the other bosses, it's still possible but at challenging enough to make you want to bring it back to the biome, rather than forcing you to. A good solution to this is to possibly give it the night time AI (but retain the ability to spawn guardians) when led out of the biome, giving a challenge without forcing the player to move into the biome to actually continue the fight.

**Make Cold Divinity a little bit more worth obtaining/using**

This thing is pretty disappointing. It's supposed to be a hardmode legendary. Early hardmode, sure, but it is still a hardmode legendary nonetheless. This thing is extremely underwhelming, and lackluster, in my opinion. It requires devotion of a crap ton of minion slots for it to be effective, and even still, it is held back by its painfully hilariously bad fire rate, and the right click, the one thing that could be of some interest, due to it's potential for 'group damage' and burst, is put on such a massive delay. It actually rarely ever pops if cast on a mob, or maybe luckily clears mobs around the one you cast it on, or feels so slow against bosses that it doesn't really have much impact other than "well I added an extra like 1500 dps after like 20 seconds of waiting. This much commitment is a poor trade off for an armada of minions." This weapon feels like a trade off when there's far more consistent, and far more effective items within a similar caliber, that have much better interactive use, or a more solidified role. Sure, it is an auto-homing weapon, which is centered on the player, but nearly every minion at this point of time has some capacity of high tracking, and more dps to boot, or unique gimmicks that make it fun and powerful at the same time. Cold Divinity feels like it's trying to do the same, but it missed the mark, pretty hard.
My suggested changes for example(?): Potentially reduce the time it takes for the RMB to implode on a target. Increase the speed at which the crystals can recharge & fire, this things lackluster recharge rate is really holding it back. Even a tiny increase would help tremendously to cement a role in this thing. Increase the damage by maybe a few points higher? I know that this can be risky and most damage values are set as they are for a reason, but something to justify using this over other minions is much needed. This thing also has a 1% drop rate, too.

**Improve on Plaguebringer Goliath's rocket dash attack in Phase 2.**

The rocket dash in Phase 2 is ridiculously easy to avoid. With the initially small area of coverage and the way the spread goes towards where the boss is heading, it's easy to just run under or fly above the rocket formation to avoid it. This essentially invalidates the attack considering you have decent space to dodge. Reworking this specific attack would make the rocket dash attack actually challenging to fight against.

One idea to rework it can be, but not limited to reducing the amount of dashes while making the rockets shoot in all directions instead of a cone-ish spread.

**Make the calamitas clone fight more interesting**

I feel like the calamitas clone fight is very underwhelming for such a milestone boss. It's very visually bland and is also considerably easy even more so than some of the mechanical bosses, she might as well just be an easier twins fight at the moment.

An idea i had which would work in tandem with the track by DMDokuro is to all previous calamity bosses involved in someway eg. having each boss spawn through the fight at a weakened state to help the clone. eg. desert scourge spawns when she is at <80% and could have some visual difference like the calamitas color scheme more health and attack so its a threat but still inferior to calamitas. then perhaps at <70% health crabulon spawns with the same changes then <60% hive mind spawns with changes then at <40% the perferators so on and so forth untill every boss has made an appearance up to the brimstone elemental.

You could have calamitas go invincible while the bosses are alive or perhaps just give her increased defence but she will attack less.

Overall i think the first fight with calamitas needs a major overhaul. Something i think the team should really consider.

rocket launchers are a cool part of ranged class, but seeing it's bound to hardmode is pretty unsatisfying. it would be a good idea to add some rocket launchers to pre hardmode, making rangers have a bit more choice instead of shredding ds for bow to shred eye and crab and use that gun up to star cannon/phonix blaster/molten fury. Because how grenades exist and can be utilized as ammunition for early game rocket launchers, i think they should all deal damage to the user to balance things out.

Raider's Talisman is a potentially useful accessory, yet it's probably one of the most tedious ones to be worked on to get its advantage. Reworking Raider's Talisman would make the accessory a lot more smoother in design, without needing to farm King Slime everytime the player respawns.

One idea to buff this can be, but won't be limited to making the stacks quickly decay after not dealing critical hits for a short time, but the stacks are easier to get. The stacks per hit can also be raised to the player's stealth points, to make the accessory a bit easier to build on stealth.

**add a way to craft the stones related to the HoTE (bloom, cryo, aero and chaos stones)**

reason: relating on luck to obtain a stone that you probably won't use at all is trash you can go on killing 40 of one of the bosses and not get the item you looking for (this is happened to me in the past and is happening to me right now and it can happen with any of the bosses)
this won't be so bad alone the HoTE is not a super late game accessory and not necessary to every run of calamity.
however those who want it can have a terrible time obtaining that last 1 or 2 items making you stuck on the tasks grinding the same boss for hours.
and more devastating is the fact that the cryo stone is used in another crafting recipe to make the kelvin: a rouge/melee weapon which it really good against worm bosses like the tough challenge of the destroyer up ahead so this can but not have to result in the anti-fun and boring type of challenge for these 2 classes.

making these items obtainable through a form of crafting can really help stop the luck based element that driven many of grinders to raging over a such items.

More environmental features; Waterfalls, mountains, hermit/treasure caves, swamps, rivers, old mineshafts etc.

Improve current prebuilds e.g. improve Hell towers, add different abandoned underground rooms, add intersections to railways.

Prebuilds are the best part of Terraria - and the more the merrier. They're so exciting to come across when adventuring, and the recent addition of the Labs shows just how good prebuilds can be, and make the game more immersive by expanding the lore - you could see the Siren's destroyed city, see the ruins of Terraria's great civilisations, have far better events than just "Defeat X enemies".
And they can be useful too - imagine finding a massive abandoned mineshaft that saves you work on a Hellevator, or an abandoned Asphalt Road that can speed up your exploration - not to mention the items that could be in such prebuilds.

Reactive Boss DR is an unintuitive mechanic that doesn't really serve any purpose aside from going against non-linearity, which Calamity has shown time and time again that it supports. Additionally, it's a bandage for weapons that perform better than they should at their tier which, while helpful for devs to not have to spend as much time testing, is only a temporary solution and prevents true balance. Removing it would get rid of an unnecessary, unintuitive, and harmful mechanic from the mod.

**Add mode dart-related weapons and darts into the mod**

the dart subclass is cool, but it's outclassed by most other stuff at the same stage and is heavily undeveloped, making this high-potential subclass wasted. It would be neat to make more darts to fire with and have more dart weapons that is actually viable.
for every stage of game(mainly hardmode, since pre hardmode doesn't have much choice and star cannon/archerfish exist anyways), an extra type of dart and dart weapon would be enough. the major idea of dart weapons is they don't shoot a custom projectile regardless of ammo used, instead they shoot what they consume, and that's what made dart weapons unique.
There isn't much space in pre hardmode to add much dart-related weapons or darts, and the major part where dart weapons start to get noticeable is the start of hardmode, where you can get all 3 vanilla darts and a dart weapon from biome mimics. after that, you have charged dart blaster, which is post cultist, leaving a gigantic empty hole in between the 2 completely separate progression tiers.
It would be good to add a bunch of darts/weapons in between post-mech and post golem tier, filling that hole up and giving rangers a bit of variety. If possible, adding post ml dart content will make this subclass even better and make it stand out from gunslinger and archer due to the unique nature of dart weapons focused on the ammo instead of the weapon itself.
...and yes, a shroomite helmet boosting dart damage is needed CompleteFailure .

The base 30 seconds introduced for Old One's Army's break time between waves is intended for Etherian Mana collecting and sentry placing. With higher tiers, it's much faster to collect Etherian Mana (naturally better mobility, Conveyor Belts, etc.) or place sentries, and the break time given is much wasted, leaving the player wait for a long time between waves, making the event grind grittily long.

Reducing this break time in higher tiers of Old One's Army would make the event a slight bit faster to go through for general attempts and farming.

Add more Unique Enemies

?

A generous amount of Calamity is focused solely around boss fights, and rarely does exploration come into play, with some exceptions. The Abyss, Astral Infection, and Sulphurous Sea are pretty memorable because of their unique enemies that are very different from any other enemy in base Terraria. In contrast, certain biomes like Brimstone Crags, Post-ML Hallowed and Dungeon are very bland with little variety in enemies or AI. Adding more unique enemies to these biomes would flesh them out more, and make them feel more at home, especially if said enemies interact with their environment.

Some Examples:
A "aquatic" brimstone enemy that regenerates health in lava
Phantoplasm possessed furniture that tries to act as a mimic
Some type of holy fire bird (possibly a phoenix) that enhances other Profaned enemies

make the worm boss DR mechanic not occur on rematches

One of the most jarring features of the mod is that almost every worm boss takes time to uncoil, similarly to vanilla Destroyer, and during that time, they have insane Damage Reduction, so they take 1 damage from every hit.
This mechanic is completely reasonable and prevents insane sequence breaks with cheese. However, I believe that, for the purposes of farming, once a boss has been killed, the DR mechanic should be disabled, as the player has already proven that they can kill the boss without cheese, and it majorly slows down the farming of these bosses

**Make bosses/treasure bags have a higher chance of dropping a weapon dealing the same damage type as the one you're holding**

We all hate grinding, and that's why grind-reducing QoL stuff exist, like craftable truffle worm, craftable ankh shield components and most noticeably, defilled rune drop rate increase.
But, I believe all of us here have had the pain of grinding a specific boss just to get a weapon from another class over and over again, like grinding deus for god spawn helix but ended up getting 20 starfalls, or grinding ml for sdmg and ended up with 20 sentry staffs HDfailure .
It would be good to make boss treasure bags have a higher chance to drop a weapon of the same class as the highest class proficiency you have. For an instance, you can have 5 levels on everything and 6 level on rogue and opening a ravhager bag will have a higher chance of dropping you the cranium smasher instead of ultimus clever.
There's another thought, which is to make bags/bosses have a higher chance to drop a weapon of the same class as the weapon you're holding. For an instance, doggo bags would have a higher chance to drop deathhail staff if you're holding ~~||wand of sparkling ||~~ dark spark. This however, have a downside of dropping a melee weapon when you're holding a tool such as pickaxe or hammer since they deal melee damage.
(i'm not entirely sure if such a thing can be implemented onto vanilla bosses/bags but i'm positive it's possible to do on calamity bags)
However, there's yet another idea, which is more general and doesn't require a large amount of code fussing: make bags drop more weapons at once that doesn't repeat. This way it's more friendly to multiplayer as all players have a better chance of getting their weapon.
Such grind-reducing QoL is surely welcomed by everyone and will make our gameplay more enjoyable

**Rework Accessories that Spawn Minions to do Classless Damage**

Minion accessories such as heart of the elements or fungal clump do summon damage. This makes the accessories essentially useless for anything that isn't summoner because of the 50% summon damage nerf that calamity adds and the fact that you can't boost the damage. These accessories are meant to be for all classes and them doing summon damage completely negates that. A solution to this would be to make the minions do classless damage, which gets boosted by all damage increases and doesn't get nerfed to oblivion every time you hold a different weapon. This makes the accessories actually worth it on other classes rather than being summoner only

**make Deus when he splits in two have different appearances**

This is a big problem with certain classes as there is no difference between the 2 and when they both are together its hard to know who to focus damage on and it ends up being a boss with 720000 hp instead of 2 with 360000 hp
Summoners dont have a problem with this as they can focus attacks on one with a right click but with other classes you never know which one has lower hp just by looking at it
This could be easily solved by making the mini-map icon or appearance of them different when they split, for instance deus's color scheme is silver, blue, and orange have it so that one worm is blue and silver and the other worm is orange and silver, this can remove a lot of the difficulty and annoyance from the fight as i often get one to really low hp but I end up attacking the other one with adrenaline and dying as i expected to win the fight with that
Take the twins for example the key difference is the different colored irises in the first phase and Desert scourge which starts with 3 other DS have the 3 other ones be smaller and not have a boss health bar
Alternitvely you could just have the 2 smaller deuses both have a quarter of 360000 as it makes no sense that their hp resets when they split
TL;DR make phase 2 deuses have different color schemes so it is easier to tell them apart

Summoners have an ability to right click on an enemy to "focus" their minions to attack it. The main problem with this is that it barely works. Targeting an enemy feels more like a suggestion to the minions than an actual command. They will sometimes ignore whatever enemy is being targeted in favor of whatever is closer to them, which literally ruins the entire point of the targeting function that summoner has. Giving targeted enemies more priority than they do now would help the minions actually attack the target you want them to attack rather than only attacking it if they feel like it.

Not because I think it should be easier to make artificial ones, but because at the moment you leave the Infection while on the surface much too easily.
Currently, it takes 950 blocks for the game to consider the player to be in the Astral Infection. This means that flying above an infected area will often result in the player moving in and out of the biome, which is especially jarring considering its dark background compared to the surface. In my current play through, while my character is standing directly in front of the Astral Beacon, the game considers me on the surface, not in the Astral Infection. It feels wrong to be standing at the heart of a biome and to not even be in said biome.

**Abolish Mutually Exclusive Drops from Vanilla Loot Bags**

How many times has a crafting recipe required a drop from a boss with a massive loot pool (such as Plantera, Golem, or Moon Lord) where you only get one drop at a time, as opposed to every single Calamity boss being able to drop more than one weapon from their loot pool in the same bag? If the mutual exclusivity was removed from loot bags of vanilla bosses, getting a drop from these bosses would be less of a chore.

Instead, change each of these mutually exclusive probabilities to a standard probability (with a guaranteed chance to get at LEAST one drop). This would mean your bag has a 1 in 7 chance to have a Sun Stone that isn't spoiled because you happened to roll the Golem Fist.

**Make the player know when It's Sandstorming**

The player may not know when it starts to Sandstorm.I think the mod can make it with a status message like:
"Dust is heavy in the air" or "Sands started to shift" this way the player wont need to check desert every second,Its hard to find Arid Artifacts in early Hardmode and players need sandstorms for obtaining Forbidden Fragments or Grand Scales.

**Nerf Aegis Blade left click**

currently, this weapon with max melee speed is absolutely broken. not only does it shred a post cultist tier boss(deus) as only a post golem weapon due to the infinite piercing nature of true melee and the eruption, it's also surprisingly effective against pbg and even ravhager. the most astonishing thing is, with the right setup, you can melt cultist in under 30 seconds without any difficulty. with rage mode cultist falls in under 10 seconds
the right click is quite balanced as a legendary weapon, it's quite good on fishron, not bad on pbg but terrible on ravager p1. it's quite effective on cultist as well, in comparison to other legendary weapons the right click is way more balanced than the left click
there best way to nerf this weapon is to give the left click eruption some iframes that's separately counted(to prevent the blade from dealing no damage and making this weapon trash), or you can just nerf the damage or give the melee speed a softcap or something

**Add a way to toggle tool effects for weapon-oriented tools.**

Some tools, like Grax and Hydraulic Volt Crasher, can be exceptional in combat, but the fact that they have tool stats makes them a bit hindering to use in a custom arena, particularly with a lot of background walls. Having these kind of tools able to be completely focused on combat would make them a bit less chaotic to be used as combat in well designed arenas.

**Remove Non-Furniture Items From Furniture Crafting Stations**

Many crafting stations in calamity are there just to be there, without much purpose. They do not gate anything as they are often acquired at or before the same tier and are usually used once for a specific set of gear and never again. Examples of this are the static refiner to craft statigel gear and the sky mill for aerospec. They are thematic crafting stations, which, in vanilla, are used to craft thematic furniture pieces, which is fine. However, aerospec and statigel sets require you to use the furniture stations for weapons and armor. This causes unnecessary bloat in terms of crafting stations needed and is very inconsistent when compared to every other thematic station. Removing the need for the furniture stations in favor of using basic stations such as the anvil or workbench streamlines the experience of crafting new gear and reduces clutter as well as makes crafting stations more consistent with each other.

__**Make Sulphur Sea/Abyss Pots directly drop loot**__

All pots in the Sulphurous Sea and Abyss drop Sulphuric Treasures and Abyssal Treasures. This is presumably done to prevent inventory clutter due to the density and large drop pools of these pots. Not only does the logic not make sense (how is a chest in a pot?), there are a couple problems that follow here:
Issue A (minor): Nested lootboxes are double-edged swords. Each time you break a pot means you have to right click. There are tons of pots along the sea floor, so there's a lot of clicking that needs to be done.
Issue B (major): This is very outside of Terraria in nature. All pots and chests normally contain their immediate loot rather than some chests to open later. Terraria clearly shows that inventory management is important, and this shatters the idea. Imagine if you get a variation of "treasure chest" for every chest and pot you open, that would blatantly be insane, and frankly ruin the point.

These are some potential solutions that can be used, which in some way can solve all of the issues above.
Solution A: Make Sulphur Sea/Abyss pots drop a less pool of loot, and/or appear less frequently. This would make it less of an inventory clutter, maybe even less than regular pots do. It already benefits the player enough with a supply of high-tier potions such as Lifeforce and Endurance, which should be enough to incentivize the player to break them regardless of amount. (Quality > Quantity)
Solution B: Add a configuration option that allows pots to just directly drop loot. Sometimes people just prefer the satisfying moment of money and loot immediately popping out of pots, and other people like their inventory to be saved.

**Convert the Death Mode Astral Infection biome changes to base-game**

The Astral Infection is a somewhat bland biome in terms of visual effects. Death Mode adds a low-gravity effect and a slight purple haze to the screen. This definitely makes the biome look better, but why Death Mode exclusive? These changes are only visual and have practically no effect on gameplay. The Death Mode effects are what makes this biome more unique and different from pretty much all other biomes in terms of effects, and should be converted into standard game.
Additionally, the haze effect is pretty light and is only really visible during noon. Making the haze "darker" or have other visual effects similar to a blizzard or a sandstorm would make the effect more noticeable.

**Buff player-inflicted damage overtime debuffs.**

DoT debuffs feel quite weak on-tier compared to weapon DPS, and the only way to make them work is to put them on a select number of weapons way under their intended tier. This is already an issue in vanilla, and Calamity doesn't seem to fix it. Drastically buffing the DPS of damage overtime debuff would make them actually a reliable source of damage instead of just either flavor or stat reduction (like defense).

**Rework Death Mode Environment Effects to be more complex**

?

Death Mode as a whole is the toughest, most complex mode in Calamity, a mod known for being fairly deep and complex. Despite this it's most notable difference, environment effects, is strikingly boring. There is the immediately noticeable but boring cold and hot effects, but also the spiky bushes and environmental effects that are much less utilized.

The hot and cold environment effects are very well known, but practically only matter pre-boss/pre-hm. Once you're past that point, crafting gear to counteract the effects is trivially easy, and you can always just slap a Frost Barrier on to counteract all of the effects. Additionally, any exploration in certain areas is completely locked off due to how excessively punishing the debuffs are, which goes against Calamity's ideals to let the player progress how they want.

Reworking the environmental heat/cold effects to work more similarly to the Abyss' various mechanics (punishing the player for being unprepared but still allowing them to visit the biome) and buffing the current environmental dangers and making them scale would make the most unique changes in Deathmode much more enjoyable and challenging. Additionally, bosses could utilize some of the environmental dangers for new attacks, such as Brimstone Elemental shooting geysers from the lava or Duke Fishron summoning a larger version of his Sharknado from the water.

**Allow the Perforator Hive's projectiles to pass through blocks, at least in Revengeance Mode or greater.**

The Perforators, and especially their Hive, have always been incredibly vulnerable to "cheese strategies," the most prominent of which, at least that I know of, is putting blocks above the player to prevent any dangers the Perforator Hive presents, while using artificial life regeneration to completely regenerate life before taking on the next Perforator that spawns.
Reworking the Perforator Hive's projectiles to pass through blocks, at least in Revengeance Mode or higher, would allow the fight to be more difficult, less cheesy and more exciting.

Add permanent upgrades

Description: Many armors have passive abilities such as regeneration, damage boost, etc. Passive abilities that dont have to be equipped have to be found in a players world.

Reason: Since passive abilites must be equipped with armor, basically forces a player to switch armor for a specific ability. Passive abilities that are earned, are permanently equipped, (not damage boosts for passives) searching for passive abilities yourself makes the game more of a challenge. For example, if chase sequences were added, this would make passives vital.

**Fix buff slots**

Buff slots are a mechanic, that, while sounds good in theory, theyre not very well used, both by vanilla and calamity. The main issue is that a lot of things that arent buffs, take up buff slots, those being pets, mounts, minions, cooldowns, adrenaline and rage, armor set effects(abyssal madness, and nebula armor for example), transformations(such as abyssal diving suit, neptune's shell, and aquatic heart), and of course debuffs. Overbuffing also isn't much if an issue, since there are already other limits in place to prevent this such as alcohol poisoning and potion upgrades cancelling out their crafting components. In most situations where you end up using too many buff slots, its because too many of the non-buffs are using them. This is especially problematic with auric tesla summon armor. The set bonus summons 3 minions, has 2 revives. Sponge/cotbg also take up a buff slot with flesh totem cooldown/shell speed boost(it could be argued that this is technically a buff, but still its a very minor one, since sponge is post-DoG, it should just be removed from the accessory entirely) and scal takes up another 2 with vuln hex and abyssal flames, calamity itself also adds boss zen, which, even though disabling it wont take up a buff slot(in the draedon update), it shouldnt take up a buff slot in the first place. 40% of the buff slots are taken by "non-buffs". A solution could be making cooldowns, pets and such take up separate slots. Simply raising the buff slots would also help lessen this issue while taking less effort. Another potential solution would be either granting the player some sort of permanent upgrade to raise their buff slots, or make the things that shouldn't take up buff slots give an additional buff slot.

**Allow the Player to Disable the Sniper Scope Zoom**

The Sniper Scope is a direct upgrade to the Destroyer Emblem for rangers. The Sniper Scope also comes with a secondary function to zoom further while holding right click. While a good idea in concept, this quickly causes problems for weapons with a right click function, such as the Photoviscerator. You are unable to use the right click attacks without using the zoom function which can disorient the player while they're attempting to aim with the weapon. This can force some players to use the Destroyer Emblem, a direct downgrade in terms of stats, over the Sniper Scope solely because of the zoom function.

To solve this problem, the player could have a way to disable the Sniper Scope effect. This can be done by either have it be related to toggling visibility for the accessory, or with an option in the config.

His hands can sometimes strike from completely off screen, going so fast as to the point where you cannot react and that you cannot see him raise said hand. Skeletron can also look like he is raising a hand while he is teleporting in rev+, faking the player out with a false telegraph.

**Rework stealth strikes that purely use additional traveling projectiles.**

Some rogue weapons (like Fantasy Talisman, Night's Gaze and Crystal Piercer) have additional projectiles as they travel for their stealth strikes. These stealth strikes don't really work for weapons with higher velocity (like those mentioned above) as there's no way to utilize these traveling projectiles on fast weapons when you can just hit stuff with the main projectile, which theoretically would perform better than maximizing the traveling projectiles. Reworking these stealth strikes would make these weapons have actually interesting stealth strikes to play around.

Give the Flesh Knuckles/Putrid Scent a Recipe for them to be used in

Flesh knuckles as they stand are a pretty great accessory especially in multiplayer, its kinda a shame that they aren't used in any recipes, They are quite a useful defensive accessory since it gives you 7 defense without modifiers and is very useful for tanks. i would suggest perhaps adding it to rampart of deities so it would get some love. Also Putrid Scent could possibly be used in a late game ranger or mage accessory since it is mainly used for making enemies not target you since rangers and mages are more squishy than warriors

**A Configuration Option To Lower The Amount of Particles From Post-Yharon/Endgame Weapons**

Weapons that are post Yharon tend to be very laggy due to the amount of particles they make. For example, you want to fight Scal. You want to use the Subsuming Vortex. Well, due to the high amounts of particles, the fps dips and makes it not a viable option. A configuration option to lower or even turn off weapon particles would be great for many people that dont have the best pc's.

Add back the Charger Test Item

Of course this item was used to test Draedon's Arsenal without having to charge them all the time and that is now done, but it would be nice to have the item in the game in case players want to spawn in the item to avoid the annoyance of doing that, like in the very common instance in Calamity of very many boss attempts. It may bypass the Arsenal's main mechanic, but it already exists, so there's little reason for it not to be in the mod as an option, as it's the only way of bypassing the charging to my knowledge. To clarify, Im not suggesting to make it obtainable, only existing and available in cheatsheet.

**Give the Perforator Hive another attack it can use, at least while no worms are alive.**

While the fight overall is in a good state, the sections between worm phases can get repetitive over time, as the Hive only alternates between two attacks. Giving the Hive an extra attack it could use periodically, at least while no worms are alive, would add more variety to the fight and make it feel less repetitive. An example of a possible attack is having the Hive rapidly shoot waves of its projectiles above you similar to Night Providence’s crystal attack.

Reason: the player can potentially facetank a boss via doing this strategy as causing to heal a desired amount of times depending how many statues you have and you can hit as much possible. In short, this is to prevent even more facetanking by part of abusing healing effects from weapons on enemies spawned via enemy statues.

Old duke is a pretty fun fight once you learnt his gimmick of predictive dashes, however there is one main problem: Tooth balls
These pseudo-projectiles spawned by Old Duke at first aren't hard at all to dodge specially with a decent arena, the problem comes when Old duke starts spawning more projectiles and more frequently in his second phase, the speed of these is pretty problematic and infuriating and turn what would be a pretty fun fight into a total mess, specially in Death mode were Old Duke's higher aggressiveness makes them even tougher to dodge specially with all of the sulfuric shark gore raining and the sulfuric vortexes, this is more problematic in smaller arenas. Nerfing their top speed and maybe making Old Duke spawn less of them in his second phase would probably solve this problem and make the fight more fun and worth it.

**Genisis continuous beam Rework**

The Genisis is a very powerful weapon but in terms of handling it is kind of awkward. The weapon unleashes a y-shaped continuous beam that is long enough to nearly reach the horizontal edge of the screen, but that is where the problem lies. Because of its length, the weapon has considerably reduced usefulness when fired vertically as the split part of the beam will go offscreen. This makes it uncomfortable to use as I can't see how effective my split beam is. Furthermore, the static length of the beam can make it clumsy to wield for players who may prefer to keep the cursor close to the center of the screen as this will then cause the beam to awkwardly jerk around when the cursor is moved in certain ways. Furthermore, the uniform length of the beam gives Genisis deficiencies at fighting many bosses around the point of the game which one might have it. The consistent shape of the beam forces the player to cling to a narrow sweet spot in range -- not too far from the target and not too close -- which when combined with dodging and aiming can make this weapon shine far less than it ought to. Said sweet spot in range doesn't coincide well with the range that mage players tend to keep between them and their enemies.

Overall, I think it would be more practical if the beam were to split at the cursor's position, but the beam simply splitting earlier could solve most of the aforementioned issues as well.

Ink Bomb is a stealth accessory that is necessary for Abyssal Mirror and Eclipse Mirror, making it incredibly useful for Stealth Rogue. Despite this, it has less than 5% drop rate from two fairly uncommon enemies in the Abyss, making it highly aggravating to get early on. While Colossal Squids do drop it at a rate of 10%, those aren't meant to be fought until Post-Polter, long after Abyssal Mirror and Ink Bomb itself are meant to be used. Increasing the drop rate would make it much less aggravating to get overall.

**Add a Guaranteed Way to Obtain the Arctic Diving Gear***

An almost must-have for exploring in the abyss post-Polterghast is the Abyssal Diving Suit, which requires the Arctic Diving Gear, which is completely RNG-based, even in Calamity (diving helmet is a low drop from sharks, flippers a low chance from crates and water chests, jellyfish necklace a low chance from jellyfish) save for the ice skates.
...that is, if you're trying to craft it. Arctic Diving Gear can be found with a 1/3 chance in the Draedon's Arsenal lab in the underground ice biome. However, there's only one underground ice biome lab, so the diving gear is far from guaranteed. I often get one of the items from the lab, and have to grind for hours to get the diving gear in order to get the Abyssal Diving Suit.

Some ways to implement this would be making its ingredients craftable, having it or its ingredients be sold by merchants, or having a guaranteed one in the ice biome lab chest. It really doesn't matter a whole lot to me, but grinding for it is really frustrating sometimes.

**Make the adrenaline and rage bar change texture when filled to full**

The adrenaline and rage meter are indicators for the current rage and adrenaline charge, similar to the stealth meter, they play a sound when fully charged. But the stealth meter's bar color changes from dark blue + purple to yellow when filled and will stay like that until the stealth charge is no longer full, which is nice as the player can always know if they have full stealth without having to mouse over the bar. However adrenaline and rage only play a sound and have a custom bar animation to indicate it's fully charged, but the bar stays the same color after that, which can confuse players about whether their bar is almost charged or fully charged. Having the adrenaline and rage bars change color in a similar way would be very useful in the middle of combat, and just be a nice QoL addition.

***Make Brimstone Elemental have some kind of delay when entering closed petals state***

As of it is right now, Brimstone elemental is a fun fight for most classes and subclasses, but for someone that is doing a true melee playthrough it gets to be something kinda unfair since she can sometimes shoot her Hellblast Barrage the frame she enters in her protective state, making you to get some unfair hits by beeing too close for her without even an warning of when she's going to get in that state to start shooting the hellblasts. I know that for a true melee class, you just need to wait until you get adrenaline to basicly kill the boss in 5 seconds, but still, that issue dosnt only make it harder for you to get and keep adrenaline, but also encourages you to win the fight in a "unfair" way, for players like me at least. The solution would be simple, make so when she gets into the defensive state, she has a delay before attacking, and when her HP gets lower and lower, that delay also gets lower, because as it seems right now, she kinda have an delay before shooting the hellblasts, but it works on a random timer.

**Rework the Flying Carpet Effect from Auric Tesla Cuisses to be Less Disruptive to Flight**

When I am using wings, 99% of the time I want to go into glide after exhausting my flight time and balance between fast and slow falls. However with Auric Tesla, I am first forced to first exhaust magic carpet flight time which removes my ease of use for a slow descent via wings. This forces me to move on the X-axis and react quickly to attacks that require a vertical motion to dodge OR completely ditch using wing slow fall.

Additionally, due to how much flight time endgame wings/boots have, it is hard to estimate when it is going to run out especially in the heat of battle. This has lead to getting hit by many of Supreme Calamitas' and other late game bosses' attacks which I would have easily dodged otherwise and a handful of deaths. The wing glide is very useful for attacks that require a bit of diagonal momentum to dodge, you get a relaxing descent and barrage the enemy with attacks the same time.

From my experience, the large gap between pre-hardmode usage/viability and endgame usage makes the magic carpet effect jarring and unexpected. I think others may enjoy the effect, but it is not for everybody. Many people have different preferences for how they get around and dodge attacks. Which is why I think something as different from other mobility options such as the magic carpet should not be forced on an endgame armor set.

**Add a second qualifier for the abyss to become a biome**

As it currently stands, the abyss is a biome that will generate at the far end of the dungeon-side of the world under the sluphur seas, the location is the only thing that qualifies the abyss as a biome.
My request is not so much a problem rather a simple request as from where it currently stands. Worlds that have not generated an abyss will create an abyss biome in the designated location despite what blocks exist in it's place. I simply suggest a second qualifier besides the location (such as backwall and/or blocks) can be used to create/destroy the biome. Considering one qualification is the location, this would not allow for more than one abyss biome to be created. This would only prevent pre-existing biomes outside calamity to not become an abyss when adding it or allow for the biome to be removed of one was so tempted.
This is honestly just a QoL request that would make the biome less questionable in certain situations.
EDiT: (I saw a small problem) if this were to be implemented, abyss back wall should be breakable, because as it currently stands I am fairly certain you cant. This also brings up the problem of using a different variant back-wall than craftable due to one spawning water, etc. However I can still see this happening.

**Buff proficiency**

The proficiency system in Calamity is a good idea, although usually by the end of a pt (aka post SCal) you would have around level 12 proficiency unless you went out of your way just to farm proficiency, which is hard in endgame due to events and bosses being too hard, requiring alot of time just to beat the boss/event once, or too easy, causing you to have to spam the spawning item and not having enough time between attacks to get the proficiency increase to take place. On the other hand, proficiency is rather bland as it is just a stat boost which increases as you progress.
So, there are two solutions to the proficiency problem.

Make proficiency easier to get. This can be implemented by either decreasing the proficiency earning cooldown or decreasing the amount needed. The proficiency meter could also be changed so instead of equipping it you can just favourite it to get the extra proficiency.
Change proficiency from just a stat bloat to something more interesting. This is hard to implement, but something more like luxor's gift is okay, giving weapons of the class extra attacks/projectiles to make it stronger.

**Buff Confusion**

?

Confused is a interesting debuff, which causes enemies to move away from the player, but it falls flat when utilized in most situations. In boss fights it does nothing, because most boss minions and all bosses are immune to it. When exploring, it's better to use an actual weapon instead of something that might get the enemy away from you, due to Confusion weapons tending to have lower damage and a decent amount of enemies firing projectiles. Mobbing is where the debuff shines most, but this situation is very rare in Calamity, where most things are exploration or boss fights. Buffing it would make it much better, and utilized more often by players.

Ideas for Buffs include:
-Letting Confused reduce the damage dealt by targets it can't confuse
-Making more Boss Minions vulnerable to it
-Decreasing enemy projectile accuracy

Making piercing weapons spawn less dusts upon hitting a segment of a worm boss would make the game run a lot smoother and prevent the issue of frame drops.

**Rework early armor damage bonuses**

?

Most early game armors give decent defense, at the cost of giving damage bonuses that do nothing 99% of the time. For non-summoner Wulfrum armor, this is a measly 3%, which does nothing due to no early game weapon (outside of very rare exceptions) having enough damage to actually benefit from it. Flat damage, such as that given by the Desert Prowler Armor, would be much more beneficial at that point in the game. One could say this buffs rapid fire rate weapons like minishark, but the damage bonus could be limited to non-insanely fast use weapons.

**Make vanilla non-sentry summon weapons have auto use and/or make them have faster use speed**

A big problem with vanilla summons is that they take a while to summon, this is specially annoying and tedious later in the game with the amount of summon slots available and the more dangerous surroundings or when attempting a boss. For instance it takes around 20 seconds to summon Stardust Cells just to fight Moon Lord. Another example is that you take around the same amount to summon Mini Twins to fight mech tier bosses. The long use time and no autoswing makes using vanilla summon weapons really tedious and making them autoswing and/or be faster will be a nice QoL change.

**Add a box to contain Signus' drops**

Both Wall of Flesh and Providence have boxes to contain their drops and prevent them from falling into lava. Signus is fought in the underworld, yet doesn't have a box. One could argue that since Twisting Nether floats, a box to stop loot from falling into lava isn't necessary. However, Signus can also drop weapons that can still fall into lava.
Another argument against this can be that drops don't burn in lava and people have lava immunity at the point of post moon-lord. This has lead to people petitioning the removal of Providence's box. However, the box can also be useful for locating loot. If everything is in lava, one would have to swim through the lava ocean of the underworld to try to find required loot. You could use a ceaseless hunger potion, but why would someone use a potion just to get a couple of drops? It's just a waste of a potion.
All in all, having a box to contain Signus' loot would help immensely.

Make the dash from plagued fuel pack/blunder booster not remove your momentum

pfp and bb are good accessories on theory, but they're poorly executed because even if the dash managed to help you dodge stuff, you can still get caught in a dash or other projectiles. a good example is yharon, where you can dodge his dashes with bb dash but after that you lose all your momentum which can lead to certain death due to the spammy nature of yharon, another example is if you dash with pfp you can be potentially left in an awkward position without any velocity, leading to taking more hits. Reworking the 2 accessories to not remove your momentum would make them more useful

Move the ore and boss material drops from EoW and BoC to when the last segment is killed/the brain itself is killed instead of from Segments/Creepers

Currently in Calamity the creepers from the Brain of Cthulhu and the Eater of Worlds segments drop their respective ore and material before the boss itself is defeated. This rewards the player for only finishing part of the job to get the main reward, that being the boss exclusive material and the evil ores respective to the corruption/crimson. Removing the creeper/EoW Segment drops and instead having the last entity killed would instead reward killing the entirety of the Brain of Cthulhu or Eater of Worlds instead of rewarding the player for partially finishing the boss fight.

Rework Moon Lord Summoning

?

Summoning Moon Lord is a absolute pain. You either have to go through the LC fight and the Celestial Events, or use up 20 of each precious lunar fragment to summon him manually. Whichever way you choose, you then have to wait one minute until you can fight him, which is an excruciatingly long time when compared to any other boss fight (outside of Astrum Deus).

Summoning and farming Moon Lord is a massive sink of time and resources (if you choose to use lunar fragments), which you need to do for certain weapons as well as Luminite Ore. Reworking his spawn to take less time, and possibly even reworking what ways you can use to spawn him would be incredibly beneficial.

**Make chlorophyte bullets create less dust**

Chlorophyte bullets are a very useful type of ammo, having homing ability, and are usually very good for fast moving bosses or ones that are offscreen most of the time. The problem is that chlorophyte bullets create A LOT of dust that can lag even good PC's, making combinations like P90, minigun, SDFMG, onixya etc + chloro bullets pretty much unusable.
Making chlorophyte bullets create less dust, similar to verium or any other cal bullets, would reduce the lag and make these bullets actually worth using.

**make bloodstone harder to be obtained the "cheese" way**

Currently you can just grind a lot of brimstone crates/ravager bags before providence and open them after provi, thus removing almost all danger from fighting buffed bosses/enemies
my idea is that crates/bags themselves should change after defeating provi, similar to crates in 1.4, so you actually have the danger to fight buffed bosses or fish while dealing with buffed enemies
Another way this could be changed is make bloodstone be dropped directly from the buffed bosses post-provi, not from their bags

**Expand the Post-ML Dungeon**

The Post-ML Dungeon is very barren. Outside of a boss (two if you count Ceaseless Void) and the Dungeon Spirit knockoffs, the Phantom Spirits, there isn’t anything new to find or do inside the dungeon when compared to the Post-Plantera dungeon. This is very much unlike the change between Pre Harmode Dungeon and Post Plantera which, in addition to the biome chests, has new unique skeleton enemies with unique drops as well as a new material to gather in the form of Ectoplasm.

As of right now, the Post-ML Dungeon isn’t that unique from the Post-Plantera dungeon, with only a Dungeon Spirit clone to justify the difference. Adding new unique chests that are openable Post-ML, or even adding new enemies would go a long way to making it feel more special and memorable.

**Move Ravager to Post-Provi and make him the only source of Bloodstone**

?

Ravager, progression wise, currently exists in a nebulous Hardmode and Post-Provi point, not being locked behind any progression point and getting buffed after Providence is defeated. Additionally, Bloodstone is one of his drops Post-Providence, and it’s very fitting for a flesh golem. However, the same material is dropped by Clonelamitas, Brimstone Elemental, and the Brimstone Crag enemies/crates. While this does give new life and a rematch to those enemies, Clonelamitas is just a clone of SCal, so she doesn’t really need a rematch. You already get that rematch through SCal. Brimstone Elemental and the Crag enemies don’t have quite as good of a reason to drop Bloodstone thematically, at least not when compared to Ravager.

One could kill two birds with one two then by moving Ravager to Post-Provi, and by making him the sole source of Bloodstone. This would prevent any cheese with saving treasure bags or crates and opening them Post-Providence, and give Ravager a more solid place in progression. It would also make Bloodstone less of a thematic headache, being focused on one extremely fitting boss instead of three vaguely fitting/connected ones.

**Reduce the size of Providence's Profaned Rock square to that of Wall of Flesh's Demonite/Crimtane Brick square**

When farming Providence, every single time she dies it generates a massive box made of Profaned Rock to prevent the drops from falling in lava. This box is nearly quadruple the size of the one generated by the Wall of Flesh despite doing the exact same thing and is incredibly tedious to clean up. If one doesn't clean this up they run the risk of getting stuck on them during subsequent fights. In all, the squares being this massive has no advantages over a smaller square other than just being annoying to clean up.

The clentaminator's primary fire requires players to dig tunnels throughout biomes in order to make the wanted changes, and adding an area of effect upgrade would allow players to manage larger biomes without a grid of tunnels. Calamity's increased focus on biomes that are vulnerable to corruption such as desert and jungle ramps up the need to protect them not seen in normal terraria, and adding a more efficient way to biome control would address that.

**add an aiming line (config)**

Idk what it's really called but basically a line (typically red) that goes from the player to the cursor.
Why I think that's necessary is because later in the game the screen is so cluttered by projectiles/effects of multiple colours that it becomes near impossible to see your cursor no matter what colour you make it because it never stands out.
This could also help people that use anti-lag mod cuz some weapons rely on dust, so with some sort of aiming line they could see where they're aiming.
Even if you use homing weapons it's possible you are 1) so far off the target you still miss 2) going to click of screen which can be annoying

It could be a config and maybe there could be an option to switch it on for either

Inferno buff is vastly inferior to Tesla's Electricity buff in more ways than one. Its only advantage is bigger radius. Meanwhile Tesla's Electricity inflicts both direct damage (15) AND Electrified (up to 16dps) AND Galvanic Corrosion (stun on normal enemies), meanwhile Inferno does only On Fire! (4dps). And considering Tesla Potion is easier and earlier to get, Inferno is in a really bad spot compared to Tesla.

**Rework Bossrush (specially the first 3 tiers)**

Boss Rush currently feels like an 10-25 min (depending if the player is running glass cannon or a more survivability focused loadout) melt fest til later bosses such as Ceaseless Void, Old Duke, Scal, and many others while you try to avoid getting cheap shotted by things like Eater of Worlds spawn, telefrags from bosses like BoC and Yharon or avoiding extremely sped up attacks from other bosses.

The proposal is to make the bosses in this optional/ultimate challenge more challenging compared to their regular counterparts, specially the pre-hm bosses and tiers 1-3 of the boss rush rather than just the same boss but with way more health and sped up.

Some suggestions: make them more resilient, give them stronger reactive dr so that you dont melt the heck out of em, make bosses faster if off-screen to avoid just outrunning them by a lot via things like Alicorn and fix spawn kills/cheap hits such as Eater of Worlds's spawn or the telefrags i mentioned earlier and reduce the amount of hyper speed projectiles such as Brimstone elemental's cocoon's hellblasts, Signus's mines and some stuff later on like Plaguebringer's stringers

This would help so that this challenge is more of a melt and don't get melted and so that theres more strategy to defeat boss rush, specially tiers 1-3 and so that it isnt melt bosses for 8-16 minutes to attempt the last 6-4 bosses.

Calamity Expert Mode accessories have nowhere near the same unique feeling they do in vanilla, where each one is wholly unique and useful in some way (except ML’s). Instead, Calamity Expert mode items are widely known for being very boring (with a few notable exceptions), and highly underpowered compared to other accessories. Even when comparing first boss drops, something like the Royal Gel can be used throughout all of Vanilla to prevent annoyance from slimes, while the same cannot be said by the Ocean Crest, which literally becomes replaced by a better copy of it from a future boss.

**Update The Gravistar Sabaton**

One of the coolest Expert-mode items. super useless, you use it a few times and chuck it in a chest forever. The ability to fall super fast by holding down and making a big explosion is a cool and unique ability. These boots make a big af particle effect but it does very little damage, it just gives them a debuff that poisons them and they die slowly. My solution: 1st, make this item part of a recipe. something that makes sense, and give that item that effect. My item of choice that I would make this item a part of would be the Elysian Tracers. falling very fast is super useful in Yharon fights. It would also make the player refight Astrum Aureus post-Moon Lord if they misplaced the Gravistar, increasing a players chance to get the* Suspicious Looking Jelly Been* in a play though. 2nd, I'd improve the usability of the ability. Stuff like make it trigger when landing on platforms, increase downward acceleration etc. 3rd, make it feel powerful. give it some knock-back so it really feels like your making an impact, give it some solid damage numbers that make it worth hitting the ground.

As of now, Auric Tesla Bars are non-renewable as Auric Ore only generates once. Allowing Golden Crates to drop Auric Tesla Bars would match how Jungle Crates drop Uelibloom Bars after Providence has been defeated. This would make Auric Tesla Bars renewable, which would help rogue characters as one of their main endgame weapons are Plasma Grenades, which require Auric Tesla Bars and are consumable, which can run out if you die enough times. This would also give players another option over going into the long Auric grind for the endgame gear, which requires alot of these bars.

There are some problems like "how are you going to prevent players getting post plantera loot pre-hardmode?".

Vanilla have a lot of weapons, some of them doesn't pierce but a lot of them does, as a measure of balancing, they give enemies immunity frames on hit. Looking at calamity however, a lot of piercing weapons at vanilla progression tiers ignore iframes partially, which is unfair to vanilla weapons. as an example, terra blade is out-classed by terra edge because of the iframes from terra blade's projectiles made the sworditself miss hits often while terra edge don't have such a problem. another example is vanilla flamethrower, which is post skeletron prime, giving a lot of iframes when meowthrower, a WoF weapon, give less ifranes and deals almost the same (if not more) dps. Make vanilla weapons give less iframes on hit will make them on par with calamity's weapons at respective progressions and will make vanilla weapons gain more usage, but not make them give too little iframes and became the equivalent of beenades on WoF

**Remove King Slime soul of night/light cheese, and lower recipe requirements to compensate**

?

King Slime is well known for being a way to cheese away any challenge of acquiring souls of night/light, and JE/1.4 removed it, so it would be in line with other balance changes like nurse price hikes throughout the game being implemented already. However, Calamity has some ridiculous soul requirements for certain items, such as Gaze of Crysthamyr's 100 Souls of Night. Lowering most recipes (or at least certain ones) would compensate for the loss of King Slime cheese.

As a small side note, Fish of Night/Light already exist, so if you want an alternative way aside from farming enemies you can already go fishing instead.

**Make potions that require hardmode materials to craft require more than just blood orbs and water bottles at alch table**

Blood orbs and water bottle at alchemy table = a lot of different calamity/vanilla potions, while this QoL is accepted, potions like fabsol's vodka potion which clearly is hardmode(require unicorn horn pixie dust and crystal shard) can be crafted with blood orbs and water bottle at alchemy table, which is pre hardmode. this breaks the intended potion progression and made the regular hardmode potion recipes almost useless because you can shred through blood moon for orbs. Changing the blood orb recipes for hm potions will fix this.

**Rebalance Yoyo Glove's effect.**

Yoyo Glove creates a copy of the yoyo the player is using (with full damage) upon damaging enemies with one. This practically makes the accessory (and its upgrade, Yoyo Bag) mandatory for yoyo gameplay that HM yoyos onwards have to be balanced around this existing. Rebalancing this accessory (and to the same extent, Yoyo Bag) would make yoyos relatively fine to use without either of mentioned accessories being mandatory.

**Make worms not have collision (ex. DoG during laser walls) for 10 seconds instead of the current worm DR**

Currently all worms have insane DR (somewhere around 95%) for the first 10 seconds after they spawn in to prevent getting loads of damage off of the bunched up segments. This basically prevents the player from damaging the boss during these 10 seconds, but the boss can still damage them. This leads to 10 seconds of the player frantically flying around trying to dodge attacks to avoid losing their entire health bar before the boss can lose 1% of theirs and gives a big disadvantage to the player.

**Rework Tenebris into a Herb**

?

Currently, no herbs are actually added by Calamity at all, which is kind of a shame in my opinion. Tenebris is a block that naturally grows through Planty Mush and has no real definition to it outside of "darkness", meaning it could very easily be turned into a herb that naturally grows on Abyss Gravel/Planty Mush. Although it is used in several non-potion recipes currently, Fireblossom and Deathweed are also used for several normal item recipes, so it wouldn’t be out of the question. Additionally, this could open the door to more unique potions, giving players more options of what buffs to use during fights.

**Rework materials that are hard to gather/serve little purpose**

My reasoning is very simple: material bloat and or hard-to-gather materials that serve little purpose. Stuff like Murky Paste, Murky Sludge, Beetle Juice and Blighted Lens are dropped from a few enemies/uncommon enemies, which made them hard to farm for, and they're essential in crafting some good accessories such as ambrosial ampule, which can make it pain to get. Additionally, stuff like blighted lens only craft into 1 unique item(cal clone summon) and the archery potion recipe is almost useless considering it's easier to just grind demon eyes. Another material that i think should be reworked is meld blob, they drop from pillar enemies along with the enemies' respective pillar fragment according to loot table, while the pillar themselves drop no meld blobs, which makes almost no sense and tends to make it harder to grind meld constructs up. If meld stuff is unique and unrelated to pillars, then they should not drop from pillar stuff at all, which still works as intended since meld constructs are crafted at ancient manipulator.

Some rework ideas are, but not limited to:

Make murky paste crafted from vanilla jungle materials instead of dropped
Make beetle juice drop from more than just derplings
Remove blighted lens and make recipes requiring blighted lens require normal lens instead
Make pillars drop a reasonable amount of meld blobs/make meld blobs drop from something other than pillar enemies
Remove murky sludge and make recipes that require them use blighted gel instead/make them drop from the same enemies that drop blighted gel to reduce grind

**Turn Trinket of Chi into a powerful Stealth accessory**

?

Trinket of Chi is an accessory that gives you a buff after standing still and not using a weapon for a short time. Because you’re not supposed to use a weapon for this time, most people completely ignore it, due to the fact that not using a weapon massively detracts from your dps. However, stealth rogue already naturally does not use weapons for short periods of time in order to activate their powerful stealth strikes. Thus, I recommend turning the almost completely unused Trinket of Chi into a powerful stealth rogue accessory to support the class, similar to fungal Symbiote.

Ideas for what the new Trinket of Chi could do:

Double stealth generation when standing still
Stealth Strikes fire additional projectiles
Stealth Strikes also trigger another stealth strike from your hotbar

**Rework Mounts to be generally more like Shrimpy Truffle or Tundra Leash**

?

Mounts in Terraria are currently heavily limited in their use. Most of them focus on granting the player insane mobility, but wings and boots already do this, without limiting the tight maneuverability and dodging during boss fights. They can be useful for traveling, but there already is the Burden Breaker, teleporters, and (in 1.4/JE) pylons to let you travel instantly. There are a small handful of exceptions though. Slime mount is one of the rare useful mobility mounts, because high downward speed is very rare and helpful, and infinite flight mounts are useful for building.

The other, more notable and important exceptions are the Shrimpy Truffle and the Tundra Leash. Each of them provides bonuses, damage (while "wet") for the Truffle and damage reduction for the Leash, as long as you're mounted. These benefits are very powerful, and could be used to help rework more mounts. Making mounts give you more effects, in exchange for their lower maneuverability in boss fights would make them much more appealing options during said fights.

On the other hand, Band of Starpower can be bought, and the Hermes/Flurry Boots and Anklet of Wind can be crafted, meaning you never need to worry about that.

**Make Auric Ore renewable through a post-yharon buff to the Slime God**

There could be many changes to boost the Slime God's difficulty, such as an additional Blight Slime God, or any number of other changes to do, but why not make it so that Auric Tesla Bars, which are already looking to be big in the next update, can now be made renewable?
I think I should mention that the whole Slime God thing is an example of something that could be done, and after a lot of debating in the discussions channel, I don't think it's the best way to go about it.

The power cell's energy system seem that could do a lot more than what is doing now, having only some weapons to charge feels like wasted potential on a thing that could be more influential than it is.
The Dreadon's arsenal weapons feels a bit out of place as how they are now so adding accessories and/or QoL items could make them feel less out of place since, especially the QoL items, would need constant charging and by doing this showing that this system exists; as it is now is just a thing you take out of the dusty box in the depot just to use it one or two time and that you can ignore without problems, but with this would be a useful thing you would like to have.

Examples of accessories and QoL items:
An electromagnet that works from inventory and the more is charged the more pickup range you get
A mechanical arm that increases the block placing range
An upgrade to jetpack that make you jump higher and faster the more charge it has
An armour that the set bonus take in count the charges of all the pieces

Another possibility to boost exploration or revisiting this area is if there is post ___ content added that provides armor and/or items/weapons that are good and useful in select settings (Just throwing out ideas).

Potential "Things":
New enemies (Maybe some ranged enemies now?)
New completely invisible enemies (before fighting?)
Maybe reduce sight even more to be similar to blackout from the brain suckers?

**Buff Bosses in Multiplayer**

In vanilla, multiplayer bossfights are already arguably easier simply because of how you can respawn and carry on the fight so long as there are some people left. In calamity, multiplayer bossfights are even easier because of the reworked health scaling. Why is this feature even a thing? If there are 4 players, the boss should have 4 times as much health. I think that removing this rework would make it much closer to singleplayer difficulty.
Another thing that could possibly be implemented to bring it even more in line with singleplayer is to make it so that you lose a certain percentage of your max life whenever you respawn in a bossfight (it would work kind of like Silva, your max health would be restored afterwards.) This way, you actually get punished for dying when there are other players left. This would be balanced due to the hermit's box of 100 medicines causing you to spawn at full health, making multiplayer bossfights easier as well. In any case, at least 1 or 2 of these features should be added so that bosses dont feel like pushovers with 3 or more players.

You know what bugs me? The fact that Ceaseless Void and Signus barely teach you anything about what you should expect for DoG. This is an issue since it means they're not fulfilling one of their essential purposes as the servants of another boss.

It's pretty common in games for a boss that serves a different boss to have attacks that are similar in some way to the boss it serves. This is common because it's an effective way of giving players just enough knowledge before fighting the harder boss to make it always feel fair. Laser walls really need this, since they kinda come out of nowhere and can feel really unfair at first (despite how they're technically one of the most fair attacks in the mod).

As a side note, many people, myself included, seriously dislike Void's non-minion projectiles. This would pretty effectively kill two birds with one stone.

During a boss it is necessary to give the player a wide variety of dangerous situations to avoid, however currently during most of your time fighting the perforator hive you will be dodging horizontal bullet hell after horizontal bullet hell and charges in between in revengeance mode, which can be very repetitive.

There are endless possibilities for crimson themed attacks that could be added, perhaps it spits balls of flesh that break down into spikes, which bounce off tiles in death mode, or a homing ichor bomb etc

Master Ninja Gear is a post plantera accessory that gets overshadowed because once you've acquired it, you can immediately upgrade it into Statis' Ninja Belt, which made master ninja gear useless on it's own. Re-tier either of those will give master ninja gear some usage and balance things out
