#

just make it so you eventually get to explore john wulfrum's secret base to reveal the origin/who the creator is

fossil finch
#

No

hybrid musk
#

yes

fossil finch
#

anyways they don't need any more lore

drowsy plank
#

john wulfrum is just one of the bajillion skeletons in the vanilla structures

hybrid musk
#

but the fact is that the world is relevant since that's where the player's story takes place, and this implies that someone built them to defend and patrol something

drowsy plank
#

there lore explained

fossil finch
#

not everything has to have deep complicated answers they're just

#

some drones

fossil finch
drowsy plank
#

they were built to defend the houses that are now only underground (everyone died)

there that's your lore

fossil finch
#

they're the only remants

#

it doesn't matter anymore

quiet kernel
#

We need a reference to John Wulfrum, even if it would be the smallest piece of text

fossil finch
#

iban intends to have flavor in their tooltips but i don't think he'll add any sort of lore to them

#

the armor's appearence is a reference to john wulfrum already

#

he made this concept not too long ago because calvalplus intended to add john wulfrum as a boss

#

since then it's john wulfrum

drowsy plank
#

one of the ever

quiet kernel
#

Wait is that the face of our lord and savior John Wulfrum

fossil finch
#

he's wearing googles

quiet kernel
#

I will use the wulfrum set as vanity for ever

drowsy plank
#

guys i got it he's the steampunker's grandpa

there that's the entire lore. no more explination needed

quiet kernel
fossil finch
#

keep shitposting lore i think

hybrid musk
#

I'm not saying anything has to be complex, but the fact that wulfrum is such a prominent early game material, and it's consistently around through the entire game but there's nothing that it's thematically attached to, it just feels wrong to not have something

drowsy plank
#

you could say that about everything

fossil finch
#

its thematically attached to itself

#

that simple

quiet kernel
#

Its as shrimple as that

swift wharf
#

my god it's the first enemy

#

stop overrating wulfrum shit

hybrid musk
#

slime lore

fossil finch
#

slime lore is 100% "this slime exists it is also composed of (ore)"

#

it also just so happens all ore slimes will be removed

#

@tulip elbow it will already drop from deathmode

#

did you think they were removing it or something

tulip elbow
#

I did not notice that

honest isle
#

so okay, this idea has been thrown around for a bit and well, eeeh tf2 crit sound is like eeeeeh so so and then i forgot all about it and myeah

gray nebula
#

next update adds a bare smidge of wulfrum lore

#

but it's really nothing much

soft quest
#

can we talk about how ass the biome crate chance is? literally sitting here for 10 minutes with 5 lines, 300 fishing power, and only got 2 boreal crates. Why are biome crates more rare than gold and titanium crates, doesn't make sense to me. Then on top of that its only a chance I get some ore from the crate, at which point I get less than 10 bars if i do get the chance.

fossil bronze
#

biome crates drop chest items

drowsy plank
#

you're fishing for cryonic?

fossil bronze
#

at a guaranteed chance iirc

soft quest
drowsy plank
#

i get fishing for the jungle bars like chloro, ueli, and perrenial, but i always have way more cryo than i know what to do with lmao

soft quest
#

ice biome has 0 for some reason, can cryonic spawn on crimson ice?

drowsy plank
#

HA

#

okay so

#

i had this same issue

#

and we made a guess it might've been that

#

though it could also be magic storage...

#

it was pink ice for me, not red ice, but either way, that does narrow it down a lot more, since everything else is different

soft quest
#

I would do ravager for cryonic but his prov buffed form is, wow

either way, normally, it SHOULD spawn in there

#

@swift bone Your suggestion is too specific and does not have enough if a reason why included.
Generally, suggestions here should be for overall ideas rather than how it should be exactly executed. The meat of a suggestion is the reasoning.

swift bone
#

fair enough, i'll change it to include a reason

frosty trellis
#

It's still too overly specific

swift bone
#

ok i've changed it a bit, take it with a grain of salt cuz I've been thinking about it a lot before i found this discord

frosty trellis
#

I think the whole point of "not overly specific" is to make it so you are not exactly suggesting what can be done, and let the devs have more creative freedom with what that could entail

#

A simple "make team attacks so it's not just a circle similar" would be fine (obviously a little more than that, but you get the point)

#

Suggesting exactly what those could be I believe is a no, since these are supposed to be broad and open to interpretation

frosty trellis
#

That is good

#

I like that better bc I hate the fight and having it not be a circle simulator and have interesting gimmicks would make the fight a lot more enjoyable

#

Just needs to be un--d now

swift bone
#

but add death laser thats a must

frosty trellis
#

LOL

#

Wait

#

Providence has one

#

That could work

#

Idk

#

Like 200 and something

drowsy plank
#

no

#

read the pins

unborn oriole
#

Oh

proud quest
#

is it a bad idea to suggest making darksun fragments and the 2 others appear on the map like the pillar fragments?

#

or has that already been suggested

fossil finch
#

It has and fragments showing up on the map isn't a calamity feature

proud quest
#

but it could just be more convenient and quality of life

#

yk

sorry about that, i'll delete it in that case

@inland saddle sorry for ping, rare ocassion that suggestion bot died

Why does this always happen while I’m at work lol

Will be back up as soon as I get home

(it is fine)

Ping me as soon as you see it go offline because I don’t really check it’s status

#

@small timber does it make sense to delete the regenerator suggestion and repost it due to the bot being down? It probably will be posted with 4 other suggestions beeing the oldest and most coverd one.

fossil finch
#

that's kinda cheatin'

#

Also it would've anyway

hollow shell
#

I mean you can do that
All you're doin is delaying the transition into voting

small timber
thorn dock
#

Cheating? It's rather the other way around. Usually you not have your sugg coverd by a couple others when it goes live

small timber
#

oh you mean so that the suggestion can be posted by itself? I dont think it really matter

#

depend on the time zone, for some people that is always the case anyway (wake up, have multiple suggestions already in posting at once)

thorn dock
#

I thought the bot usually always posts after 24h hours. So usually you have time where your post is the newest in the feed. This time he might get posted but with 4 other Suggs at the same time. Your post will be furthest away among them.

hot zephyr
#

do not worry

#

i will read and decline every suggestion troll

#

the order does not matter

thorn dock

😬 🙏

Suggs should be forwarded in a few minutes

Thanks Nycro

#

post-ML / post-profaned goddess, maybe add a rogue build that branches off the end-game stealth build, for something more rapid-fire dps focused? don't get me wrong i love stealth gameplay and it feels incredibly rewarding, but why do end-game weapons such as the kunais, executioner's blade, jaws of oblivion, etc feel like they should be used for DPS, rather than stealth strikes?

#

of course, all the end-game rogue weapons are basically stealth-only at that point, but it makes the inclusion of the aforementioned weapons a bit confusing when, by that point, you're pretty much starting to focus on stealth alone

small timber
#

I dont know how to explain this, but not using stealth strike is the equivalent of using silver bullet for every single gun in your playthrough and never upgrade bullets, it is not intended;

you are supposed to upgrade your bullets alongside the weapon, i.e. use stealth strike

#

so yes, rogue weapons being stronger (and you are supposed to use) stealth strike is intended; just not every weapon is balanced enough to the point where every weapon have bigger payout of stealth strike than spam

#

because post-ML stealth regen is so absurdly high that you can use a lot of stealth strike, so it is hard to balance around that

delicate sun
#

i see, yeah once you build up those stealth accessories, you get higher damage from even the kunais using stealth

although, when using weapons with SUPER fast fire-rate, i tend to use up all my stealth in one click (even with DG's sheath), which kinda messes up using stealth

#

since something like executioners can fire twice in one click, if you're not fast enough

small timber
#

it is not really fixable unless the devs change how they function, since even if you have lightning fast finger they always fire 2 times in 1 click, it is just how they are coded

delicate sun
#

hmmm i see

small timber
#

but ya, tldr I do think there are some accessories that do benefit spam (somewhat) already, just they also benefit stealth

#

nanotech, venerated locket, glove of recklessness, to name a few that I know

glacial crater
#

Change how the Storm Weavers first phase works

Storm Weaver is by far the hardest Sentinel - so it makes no sense to make the boss that needs the most attempts the most tedious to make an attempt on. The first phase is time-consuming whos only value is making Adren stalling easier

#

YOOOO

#

Finally the game breaking mounted scanner issue can be fixed

proud quest
#

ive never had that issue though

#

what is it like

small timber
proud quest
hollow shell
#

@glacial crater Kinda strange to use SW's difficulty as part of your reasoning and also mention Adrenaline stalling
Doesn't make it clear whether the first phase makes the fight easier or harder

soft quest
#

I really like that regenerator suggestion xpc. But for items that give you bonuses over a certain health threshold what would it do?

hollow shell
#

Over? Then it wouldn't be useful for those

small timber
#

the only one that come to my mind is The Bee

soft quest
#

For example the bee, which reduces your first hit by 50%

small timber
#

I think in that case probably don't use the two together? since The Bee your aim is to not get hit at all (and save you when you do get hit); while Regenator is you trade max HP for a lot of recovery

#

generally I feel Regenator in many case is more for tanks (despite its downside being contradict to it), by allowing fast recovery; and The Bee is for 'nohitter' mostly

soft quest
#

On the contrary the fast regeneration means you can get your health back to full faster enabling the bees upside

#

This is a synergy I’ve theorized, but have never tested

small timber
#

that one can be a bit weird, but ya I guess when the suggestion gets enough vote then it should be addressed by then

glacial crater
small timber
#

since for me the two items are for complete opposite builds so I didn't considered about that

glacial crater
#

for no reason

#

since its very easy to dodge all first phase attacks at this point in the game

soft quest
#

You can’t tank that well with the regenerator

glacial crater
#

and it adds to the downtime between attempts

soft quest
#

You still need to have top notch dodging skills because 2 hits can end you easily

hollow shell
#

You prolly don't wanna mention adren stalling then, cuz that makes it seem like a good thing that Phase 1 exists, that you can use it to mitigate Phase 2's difficulty

small timber
#

or you know, you can just say make SW Phase 1 last shorter

#

it used to be 10% HP, now it is 20%

#

since Phase 1 is pretty much just circle, and the new Phase 1 force circle even more

soft quest
#

Storm weaver phase two is so hard for me

small timber
#

but ya tbh I didn't consider of The Bee specifically

glacial crater
soft quest
#

Yeah, the positives of your suggestion outweigh the two accessories that would be negatively affected

small timber
#

just for curiosity what is the other one? since I cant really think of another accessory that benefit on high hp

soft quest
#

Doesnt hive minds accessory give you damage over 75% hours

#

Hp*

small timber
#

oh right that one, though that one also give a different benefit on low hp

small timber
#

(oh wow it is bad)

#

oh wait this seems to benefit low life, my bad

soft quest
#

Oh, eh

#

What about frost flare

#

Doesn’t that do it

small timber
#

this one will be affected ya

rugged belfry
#
Being above 75% life grants 10% increased damage
soft quest
#

I can live without that though

#

Besides, it also has a low health benefits

small timber
soft quest
#

Isn’t yharims insignia also similar to this? I remember one endgame accessory doing something like that

small timber
#

insignia is below 50% grant 10% damage

soft quest
#

Oh

#

So much items reward being low lol

small timber
#

since there is much more risk associated with low life than high life ya

#

to certain degree high life is nohit/you already doing well, so it become win more accessory

#

The Bee avoids that problem by being a purely defensive accessory at that

#

oh wait it do give damage, though it is really hard to stack damage reduction that early on

soft quest
#

Semi related but it would be cool if there were an item that would proc your “on hit” effects, like panic necklace, claw carapace, star viel, beeswax, etc.

#

Without taking damage

#

Like trading 10% rage for it

small timber
#

probably a bit abusable tbh, basically only star veil will benefit on it

#

most other onhit effect (except maybe scoria armor set bonus) is really lackluster

soft quest
#

Hmmmmm amidias spark would be cool

rugged belfry
#

Yes, the floor.

soft quest
#

Isn’t it meta for desert scourge and crab upon

#

I hate mobile autocorrect

small timber
#

ok I never check sponge's onhit effect

#

but damn it is GARBAGE

hollow shell
#

This suggestion is not wrong

#

Laud is the odd one out

small timber
#

I dont think laudanum is weak tbh, it is very strong in fact, just it is very niche

#

you pretty much have to know exactly what debuffs the enemy is using and use laudanum to counter it

hollow shell
#

But I also love Laud's current effects and would be sad to see em go

#

yeah

#

It is better than Ankh Charm/Shield

#

(in most cases)

tropic sleet
#

I like Laudandums effect also, as they are very unique, but not really a rev+ item

small timber
#

many of these effect are actually very goated, currently I think you can get Frost Golem one (slow) and/or Corruptor one (weak) pretty consistently

#

others are ya, specific counter accessory

#

tbh I am waiting for the update to drop so I can put a suggestion about moving adrenaline and rage to all mode, since the difficulty toggles are changed

#

basically make adrenaline/rage something you can freely toggle on/off on normal/expert, while by default on for rev/death but can also be turn off

#

so we can make more interesting items that affect adrenaline and rage without player complaining about difficulty lock, and do fit calamity's current approach towards non-difficulty lock features

tropic sleet
#

I see laudandum as a good accesory for normal gameplay, but most bosses won't give any of the debuffs given (there are exceptions, but still)

hollow shell
#

I dunno if it would benefit the suggestion objectively
but it would put me at ease
if it included a bit about how Laudanum's current effects could get re-used for a different accessory, so they would not be lost even when reworking the item itself to be Rev-focused

tropic sleet
#

I do also think changing debuffs to buffs is cool

#

I'll add it to the suggestion

sly root
#

Mutated Truffle is useless. Why not change it into a mount like Shrimpy Truffle.

frail mantle
#

i believe i remember OD's drops being specifically intended to not be the same as Fishron's drops but stronger

small timber
#

why not BUFF mutated truffle, instead of making it into something completely different

frail mantle
#

a gun instead of a bow, an accessory instead of a mount, a staff instead of a tome and a magic gun etc.

sly root
#

Oh...

thorn dock
#

It's a pretty unique item and therefore I kinda like it a lot. It would be pretty sad to have it removed in my opinion

sly root
#

It says that what means "BUFF mutated truffle"?

covert nova
#

because

#

actually you can find it in the hell draedon lab

#

which i didnt realize prior to making the suggestion

small timber
#

people likes their crafting recipes

grim tusk
#

And getting to hell lab early is a pain in the ass

#

(Altho extractinator is also quite common in desert UG)

#

(Very useful for fossil crafts)

hot zephyr
#

If you somehow do not get forty goddamn billion Extractinators just touching the Underground Desert I pray for your cosmically horrible RNG

#

Every single playthrough where I interact with the desert content, I get absolutely buried in those

#

And you only ever need one XDoge

along with the core of the blood god and bloodflare core

Laudanum used to interact with the Horror debuff specifically

(Horror has since been removed)

true inlet
#

@glacial crater the firsg phase lasts like 5 seconds and all classes have some pierce weapon that obliterates the worm in 2 seconds, I'd say signus harder

#

cause what always happens is

#

weaver spawns, you hit the tail 2 times (it takes More damage), armor gone, you take a high Pierce weapon, dead

drowsy plank
#

laud being ankh shield 2 is kinda funny, but shield also has KB res and bonus defense, so having some bonus to differentiate it from that could be neat

swift wharf
#

ankh accs

#

two of the accessories in the game

night jolt
#

Something bugs me about that Regenator suggestion

#

Wouldn't it also make potions Lifeforce potions completely useless and heavily nerf a lot of accessories?

small timber
#

since previously the regenator max HP reduction is multiplicative after all other bonus, I will double check

#

since I remember all HP reduction effect are multiplicative, even including the effigy one (which bugged me)

swift wharf
#

It should make you go from 250/500 -> 300/600 hp with lifeforce pots

#

If it locked you at half hp that is

small timber
#

actually no, regenator only affect your base HP currently (500 max hp, +100 from 20% life force; expected value = 600/2 = 300; but currently it is 350 max hp, which is 500/2 + 100 = 350)

#

huh, never expected that, since effigy buff is multiplicative

#

even effigy is affect base HP now

#

ok I think it is because at some point they nerfed all the HP multiplicative bonus, (eg: core of blood god/community no longer amplify the flat HP you get from say Asgard's Valor), but it probably also applied to negative/HP reduction effect

this also affected blood pact where it only double your base hp now, previously it just x2 your max hp after all buffs

#

well that is not something I expected

#

ok in that case they probably have to buff regenator itself if the suggestion go through then

#

(though you do have increased HP regen and a permanent frozen turtle shell effect)

swift wharf
#

huh

small timber
#

although at the very least theoritically, it should still be a buff, since your life regen scale with your max hp (as life regen get weaker when you are near max hp, the faster you reach max hp = weaker life regen)

with the change since you are always very far away from max hp you should regen much quicker than currently

swift wharf
#

Yeah

thorn dock
#

Regenator suggestion looks very promising for far

#

Had an idea for a suggestion when i was half asleep but it was a boss one so couldn't put it in.

lmao

#

we really dont need any more new bosses so if that's what you meant HDfailure

polar mural
#

nah, the thing for the suggestions posting just directly says dont suggest bosses

drowsy plank
#

i meant you can make suggestions pertaining to existing bosses, but yeah, even if that wasn't there calamity doesn't need any more bosses lol

yeah it was just an idea for a new one

I understand. Though my suggestion isn't something that could easily be fixed once it has been released, it would have to be determined early on.

swift wharf
#

I reckon that it's better to make a boss fight

#

Then the theme

hollow shell
#

We'll see when we get there

#

It's literally years down the line

#

(I personally feel the theme should be pretty somber, like DS3 Soul of Cinder Phase 2 (or just straight up Gwyn's theme)
or the final movement of Star Conquering Traveler from Kirby Star Allies (that is, after the intro)
or Homestuck's Heir of Grief
or Hollow Knight's THK and Pure Vessel themes

Considering Yharim is completely disillusioned to his own power; his empire dissolved after he experienced the sobering reality that his conquest was meaningless
And the fight takes place after he let you kill his lifelong companion)

#

(Pretty sad context)

i will now also keep my ramble that is simply poorly excusing my opinion in that, if noxus and xeroc do end up existing, xeroc's theme would fit as more upbeat and hopeful
Both because he stands for things mostly perceived as "positive" (Light, order, creation) and because he'd actually be the true end of the journey+nothing is being fought for there, it'd be more of a spar
Also unrelated but i imagine xeroc would go light and order while noxus goes darkness and chaos and their themes have a similar duality galeem and darkhon's themes do in ssbu

swift wharf
#

if xeroc theme isn't breakcore I'll cry

fossil finch
#

also because the idea of something otherworldy and extraneous to the planet having "silly otherwordly upbeat beats to beat god to" is funny

#

for yharim i'd want a somber royalty theme

proud quest
#

will i get pinged if my suggestion gets denied by a developer like how i get pinged when its accepted?

hollow shell
#

Yes

#

Also I'm not really sure what this suggestion is talking about

#

Are you using the word "vanity" to refer to it just cuz it's a cosmetic furniture item?

proud quest
#

like when i walk away from it it turns off and when i walk to it it turns on

hollow shell
#

Yeah it's proximity-based iirc

proud quest
#

is it meant to be like that

hollow shell
#

It is supposed to turn on when you get close, and turn off when you get far, yes
It should just be a circular radius around the projector

#

(maybe a rectangle)

#

Are you experiencing something that isn't that?

#

Or did you just, not understand that that's what the deal was

@fringe axle Ichor is fixed next update anyways.

Ah, fair

Just going random thoughts

I was trying to think of a way to also make it scaleable via upgrades if Ichor wasn’t fixed

#

(Edited that part in after the fact, but got rid of now because ichor is fixed)

fossil finch
#

They're not at all

#

Their actual existence as bosses is dependant on a lot of things nobody can count on by whatever time yharim's done

#

Not yet at least

hollow shell
#

You're not wrong I suppose

#

The actual execution of the fights is still greatly subject to change

quartz magnet
#

what if king slime was guaranteed to drop crown jewel if you kill the crown jewel in the fight before king slime dies? just a thought lmao

hollow shell

I think we actually do have plans for that already
If not already in the mod

oh neat

hollow shell
#

Now this is a suggestion I can agree with

swift wharf
#

Interesting suggestion

#

I thought this would be better for early game

hollow shell
#

Though it may be a bit redundant with this suggestion

hollow shell
#

Nearly a week old though

proud quest
#

yeah ill remove second part

#

also they should add more things to buy in general to fully solve this problem

swift wharf
#

Not really

proud quest
#

compared to hardmode there are like only 8 new things to buy in post moonlord and most of them are from the rogue lady

swift wharf
#

Making current items more worthy would be better than adding more items to shops imo

swift wharf
#

like

#

making money more worth instead of just adding more items in shop

#

but that's just my opinion and your point can still work

proud quest
#

maybe

#

that makes sense

#

tf is the recent one

swift wharf
#

one without reasoning it seems

scarlet lantern
#

well graveyards were introduced and NPCs sell new stuff there and they already sell their weapons and well thought this would be a good idea

hollow shell
#

That's, still pretty minimal reasoning

#

I've got one for you

#

"In vanilla, the NPCs drop those items when they're killed. So, it'd be pretty fitting for them to sell those items in a graveyard, where death is all around them."

#

(though it'd also be nice to include why them selling their weapons at all times is an issue, if it is an issue)

swift wharf
#

default shop bloat maybe

#

but that only happens to the dryad and painter I think

crude geode
#

Dryad shop taxevasion

#

Dryad's shop is cleaner than it's ever been thanks to moving her evil sells to being Graveyard crafts

hm, I haven't checked graveyard crafts yet, but are any of other evil boss drops swappable in graveyard

hollow shell
#

These are the ones we add

Basically, BoC/EoW drops and the Shadow Orb/Crimson Heart drops

#

I assume you were implying Perfs/Hive Mind

Hopefully it does get noticed! Maybe it's just sheer luck, but a lot of my suggestions have gotten a ton of votes so far.

frosty trellis
#

I tried and it didn't get enough

small timber
#

that is not like no vote tbh

ashen warren
#

It's actually funny because according to an older suggestion in 2020, it used to not be activated by the Potion hotkey even: #suggestions-voting message

small timber
#

it is probably more that people dont know bloodfin exist, since it dont drop from providence

ashen warren
#

It's very niche and you have to go out of your way to get it, I agree. Most people will never find out about it without the wiki or sheer coincidence.

#

I simply hope that the developers check suggestions regardless of just votes as well. There are some pretty good ones that might not get noticed otherwise.

another buff zenith suggestion to decline aaa

cobalt pewter

incredible

hot zephyr

it's the low risk low reward powerhouse

no need to decline when it get ❗

hot zephyr

considering zenith is around a ~7:00 emech killtime with a generic testing setup it's fine as-is

small timber

isnt ~7:00 absurdly long? I thought it is ~4:30 for average exo mechs

rancid gust
# rancid gust Had an idea about adding more ambient entities (https://terraria.wiki.gg/wiki/Am...

Add more ambient entities

Terraria Journey's End created ambient entities to make it so the game feels a lot more alive and pretty in general, and I feel like it'd be a great idea for Calamity to do the same and add more flavour to the world and also be consistent with 1.4.

A few examples of that would be special clouds of relevant figures from the mod, having the Astral Meteor be visible falling in the background upon entering hardmode or defeating Astrum Aureus, and certain creatures or objects passing by in the background in certain biomes at certain times, such as Scryllars in the Brimstone Crags or maybe even the Devourer of Gods seen in space.

#

Is that good to post?
or maybe too specific?

small timber
#

cant really be not specific for cosmetic stuff like this so I guess is fine?

rancid gust
#

These examples are mostly so people have any idea what i'm talking about lma

#

i don't know why they decided to name it ambient entities but that's how they're called on the wiki

short walrus
#

should be fine

rancid gust
#

I'll go ahead and post it then

cobalt pewter
#

this doesn't seem like a bad sugg

eternal escarp
#

those are all examples of what can be done, not the specific suggestion they ask for

#

so ye sugg is fine (and pretty cool and good imo

swift wharf
#

good suggestion but there is something similar

rancid gust
#

I did see this one and in fact even voted on it

#

I wouldn't say they're really similar

swift wharf
#

yeah this one covers up more stuff

rancid gust
#

what i'm trying to achieve is bring attention to ambient entities and then have them be expanded

swift wharf
#

best ending is both getting accepted ultimatesmug

rancid gust
#

I love the small stuff 1.4 added such as a lot of new critters and making the game more pretty overall, and it'd be kinda lame for these things to go unnoticed on mods

gray nebula

when tml doesn't have support for them yet!

#

swift wharf

rancid gust
#

Yeah that makes sense

swift wharf
#

just make your own support clearly

rancid gust
#

I remember there being talk about Calamity achievements and these would be awesome but then no support happened

ashen warren

tmod needs to support them first PensiveClown

golden tulip
#

based sugg

#

ambient dog in the background would be so cool

cobalt pewter
#

ambient dog during the downtime between p1 and p2 would be funny

#

though I think a nice ambient would be a subtle rise of light from the ground in the bg when yharon dies, basically telling you to mine auric in a cool way

frosty trellis
#

Sees the Zenith suggestion
As someone who has actually tested melee weapons, Ark is overpreforming on SCal by a lot (and the devs are aware of this) but Zenith and Ataraxia have comparable kill times for SCal and on par for the SCal kill time of 5 minutes. That and it's one of the two best melee weapons for exo twins, other being burning sky

half sage
#

zenith go brrr on ares

frosty trellis
#

Ark does more to Ares

#

Ark is actually overall fine on exos

#

Just on SCal it's overtuned

grim tusk
#

Ark is overtuned due to melee jank and other factors

#

I believe this has been fixed

frosty trellis
#

Sick

#

Once the update comes out I shall try it out again and see (and once I get time lol)

rugged spindle
#

What do yall think about my pbg suggestion

grim tusk
frosty trellis
#

PBG is fairly predictable

grim tusk
#

Or are running glass and due to that not having enough mobility

frosty trellis
#

The only annoying part about the boss is the nuke barrage

rugged spindle
#

Yeah I hage

still zodiac
#

even then you can fly over the nuke barrage if you move correctly

rugged spindle
#

It's just an annoying boss to play its not fun at all

still zodiac
#

you kinda just circle it

frosty trellis
#

Speed and dashes are actually really easy to tell and you can just Asgard's valor ram through them

frosty trellis
still zodiac
#

that also works

frosty trellis
#

I used to hate PBG

#

But it's actually pretty predictable if you don't overthink it

still zodiac
#

byeah, I kind of disagree with the sugg. The main issues with pbg are generally the ones you get used to after some time or with proper accessories

rugged spindle
#

It's not fun for first timers at all

frosty trellis
#

The mod isn't supposed to be easy

rugged spindle
#

All I gotta say

still zodiac
#

provi is also often a roadblock

grim tusk
#

Post-Golem is where the game starts to get hard

frosty trellis
#

grim tusk
#

All the bosses there I feel that serve as checks for not putting all of your accessories into one stat

frosty trellis
#

Yeah

fossil finch
#

i dont think you should be speaking in absolutes

rugged spindle
#

Ik but I could first time deus and providence my first meele playthrough

frosty trellis
#

More of a balanced build is best for PBG

fossil finch
#

it was fun for me when i was a first timer and probably for many other people too

still zodiac
frosty trellis
#

I hated PBG but it was like, the hardest boss I fought until profaned Guardians

#

PBG I just got used too

fossil finch
#

all and all pbg was never very hard to me

grim tusk
#

Profaned Guardians are not the cake walk they used to be

fossil finch
#

her dashes have very easy to understand tells and her projectiles aren't that messy

rugged spindle
#

Prof guards aren't too bad

#

Just make a big circle

frosty trellis
#

Profaned Guardians I wasn't aware I was supposed to circle them, so I was basically just running, flying and dashing a lot until they finally didn't dash lock me

swift wharf
#

pbg takes a little to learn

rugged spindle
#

Lmao

swift wharf
#

but the boss is fine

frosty trellis
#

Prof guardians aren't too bad for me now

#

But it's not clear at all you are supposed to circle them

grim tusk
#

:troll:

rugged spindle

My first instinct on bosses is to circle them

#

If I haven't played them

frosty trellis

Back then I still had never beaten ML on expert mode kek, so I wasn't exactly having a ton of skill and was playing on just regular expert as well

Well thanks for the suggestions for beating him

#

I will try

cobalt pewter
#

PBG has more pressing issues tbh, but then again iban said she'll be resprited

frosty trellis
#

PBG is just Queen bee but post-golem and with nukes

swift wharf
#

Mfw the first thing that comes to mind is suggesting to nerf the boss instead of asking for help

rugged spindle
#

I have been asking for help

#

I have been getting it

frosty trellis
#

Although I will say I do skip PBG entirely depending on the playthough

rugged spindle
#

I want rogue weapon

#

I wanna get better at the boss anyway

frosty trellis
#

Since she isn't worth it for melee/mage

frosty trellis
rugged spindle
#

Yeah

frosty trellis
#

That thing will carry you to polter

rugged spindle
#

Thats why I want it

frosty trellis
#

It's like, stupidly overpowered rn

rugged spindle
#

Should I use talisman for it

drowsy plank
#

the only gripe i could possibly fathom for PBG is that, unless you know her attacks, or figure out her audio cues quickly, it can sometimes be hard to tell when she's dashing. QB has the same issue, and i wouldnt mind some kind of "dash prep" sprite to make it more obvious, but it's really only a problem if you're brand new to the fight, since she kinda hovers at the dash distance during some of her other attacks too, so it can be a bit hard to read without prior knowledge. but overall PBG is a pretty fair fight, just make sure you have an adequate arena

frosty trellis
#

^

small timber
#

out of all the bosses that may be overtuned, PBG is definitely not one of them

frosty trellis
#

The Dashes I actually figured out pretty quickly since if she is around my height I just brace for a dash

small timber
#

dash janky yes, I noticed a lot

#

PBG likes to do vertical charge now

rugged spindle
#

I just don't think that

frosty trellis
frosty trellis
eternal escarp
#

cant be bothered to read this so i am just gonna ask

cobalt pewter
#

I think since PBG is a lot more mechanical, giving her a guiding laser when she's prepping for a dash would make more sense and probably be better

eternal escarp
#

did people already talk about difficulty is subjective and practicing a boss before suggesting nerfs

cobalt pewter
#

a long laser trying to line up with you would be pretty obvious

small timber
#

I think the only one that is objectively true is the dash is janky, since I dont know which patch PBG do a lot more vertical dash

#

as in literally, it dash when it is right above you and dash down

eternal escarp
#

that was a bug iirc

frosty trellis
#

Diagonal dashes are a bug?

eternal escarp
#

not diagonals

#

straight verticals

#

if they still happen then its likely under very specific circumstances

rugged spindle
#

Beat

#

Stuipid bug didn't give me malachite

frosty trellis
#

I have not ever seen a straight vertical dash from her

eternal escarp
#

its a 10% drop

eternal escarp
frosty trellis
#

Hope you liked farming the community

#

Bc you are gonna do it again with PBG

small timber
#

I think it is especially evident if you try to fly up when PBG is trying to dash from a top left/right position

frosty trellis
#

For Malachite

eternal escarp
#

but i know of one guy who had it happen once in older patches

small timber
#

or if you use tesla potion

frosty trellis
eternal escarp
#

lo

frosty trellis
#

Which I thought was just normal and needed to be accounted for

still zodiac
#

pretty sure pbg did a straight vertical dash on me once

#

but that's about it

small timber
#

I dont think guiding line particularly fit for PBG dash? feels maybe sound telegraph fits much better

frosty trellis
#

^

main hatch
#

^

eternal escarp
#

i personally see the literaly movement she uses to allign for a dash to be a good enough telegraph but idk HDfailure

cobalt pewter
#

I think visual cue should be a priority over auditory to me, not everyone can play with sounds

#

while you can't even play the game if you can't see

frosty trellis
#

I see your point

rugged spindle
#

Second time got it

frosty trellis
#

And I raise Yharon

rugged spindle
#

Tha ms for the help guys

frosty trellis
#

Np

frosty trellis
cobalt pewter
#

Yharon is Yharon, it's a whole can of worms in itself

frosty trellis
#

Just saying

#

Bosses auditorial cues have been prioritized in the past

#

With stuff like Yharon

#

And with PBG it makes more sense for her to have an auditorial cue when she already has a couple

small timber
#

I always feel audio telegraph is just much more intuitive than visual (particularly line)

#

always feel line should only be used when there is no other option that fits tbh

frosty trellis
#

Agreed there

safe oasis
small timber
safe oasis
#

the difference is that nobody plays on 400x200, a lot of people play without game sound

#

myself included

small timber
#

the thing is there are also a lot of people playing with audio on, myself included so audio telegraph is no problem to me
now you see how flawed argument like this can be

safe oasis
#

no i really don't

small timber
#

you cannot really say that something is not fit if you actively neglect one part of the game

safe oasis
#

??

#

my bad for trying to make the game accessible for more people and in more environments i guess

drowsy plank
#

there's a point where accessibility and detrimentally bloating the fight with telegraphs exists, and while i personally do not give a shit about whether the trace line for dashes is added or not, and do not think it crosses said line, i understand where xpc is coming from at least

#

i dont agree in this particular situation

#

but i get it

small timber
#

sorry I didn't realise the wording I used might come off as a bit offensive, but ya the tldr is you cant really complain about something added not fitting for everyone when a big part of the game is turned off

#

things like yharon charge roar telegraph are the most prominent, as the roar already is a good indicator that the charge is coming, in cases like this I don't feel there is need to still use tracer line as visual telegraph on top of that, it is abit redundant

what it need is pretty much just more accurate sound telegraph, as currently only long dash is telegraphed properly

safe oasis
#

the thing with the yharon roar is that it's possible to know it's coming without the sound, having something purely sound based is wacko

#

a sound cue is fine as long as there's another (subtle) way of knowing

small timber
#

in general I feel for cases like these a more intuitive visual telegraph will be more fitting than tracer lines (since it is the same case for yharon, where you can see yharon's mouth opening for the roar before charge)

things like maybe PBG having its jetpack opening up (alongside sound telegraph), something like that, rather than just a line telegraphing the entire charging path

#

but ya, personally I am just really against using lines for telegraph unless there is absolutely no way around it, especially in cases like this where many other options are available

frosty trellis
#

I agree wholeheartedly with xpc here

#

Also, some people have notsogreat computers and can't play at the normal 1960/1080 res bc their computers can't handle that, and yet they got by (hell I didn't even know how to change my resolution for awhile so I was playing like, 2-3 resolution settings down from max and still was able to manage)

Auditory cues were a huge help in that regard, since the resolution wasn't the best to see all the visual cues (and as a newer player, auditorial cues are much easier to learn)

offtopic but honestly as overtuned as Tracking Disk is atm, its extension tech (basically using mobility to dodge the returning projectile thus making it go out for longer) is what makes the weapon very fun to use

Zenith will melt polter, like, no contest

Zenith is one of the best weapon against DoG (yes I had stat)

Zenith will never work against Yharon by design, if you want it to work you will need to massively buff zenith

oracle got a 5:10 for mechs when I originally tested it back in 1.5's development
sleeper pick

neat linden
#

wait

frosty trellis
#

In godmode using Oracle for the hearts tool 10:xx time

small timber
#

Oracle is really strong ya, just not for hearts, in my testing also not for seeker

frosty trellis
#

It's not bad against the seekers

#

Just annoying

small timber
#

For all other phases oracle is super strong performance

neat linden
#

I used Celestus for seekers and hearts and fucking Malachite for scal herself

#

my testing was probably meh but uhhm

frosty trellis
#

We are talking melee

#

Not rogue

neat linden
#

yes but comparison

small timber
#

Malachite do be a weapon in calamity mod

neat linden
#

if oracle and malachite get comparable killtimes then either
A) I messed up my testing
B) Malachite is hilariously broken to this degree

frosty trellis
neat linden
#

as expected

frosty trellis
#

Stealth malachite is being burned to the ground next update

neat linden
#

Yes please

#

It really needs it

hot zephyr
#

i haven't tested oracle in awhile but it's probably overpowered just because of yoyos getting melee speed XD

#

but that'll die soon

neat linden
#

i expected it to be barely usable on thana

frosty trellis
#

My 6:1x SCal kill time says otherwise....

neat linden
#

i got a bit surprised tbh

small timber
#

Wait yoyo getting melee speed? No wonder terrarian melt so much

hot zephyr
#

skill issue on your end

frosty trellis
#

My other kill times were fine

small timber
#

The last time I tested oracle is fine even when melee speed dont affect it

frosty trellis
#

According to you

neat linden
#

it was quite melty since like

#

1.5

#

1.5.1 idk

frosty trellis
#

Literally you said my kill times were about right for literally every other Auric tier weapon Ian

small timber
neat linden
#

100% unrelated but can i just say how underrated god's paranoia is

small timber
#

Ripperless too, I had to nerf my damage that much, I thought I just forgot how strong terrarian was

frosty trellis
#

If it's a rogue weapon idk since I haven't played rogue rly

neat linden
#

well i do recommend giving it a shot once

frosty trellis
#

Oh I will give rogue a chance

#

Once I get time I want to do my mage run first though bc I've been dying to play mage

neat linden
#

Spiky balls are a very mixed group of

#

very powerful, mid and there's like 3 useless ones i think

#

most of them are used never

#

only ones used are stickies

fossil finch
#

did they just repost their suggestion

neat linden
#

Yes

small timber
#

Did it get exclaimed before?

hot zephyr
#

yeah but it's bolded now

fossil finch
#

lao

small timber
#

Oh ok, at least not that

hot zephyr
#

they updated the formatting

neat linden
#

couldn't they just edit message

frosty trellis
#

Interesting lore reason ig

#

But like

#

Why can't people just let Zenith be alone in Auric tier

#

That's so much less work

#

And everyone gets their cool infinity+1 sword on SCal

grim tusk
#

“I want mah op weapon right after ML”

frosty trellis
#

Go play summoner

lyric halo
#

@ hydrated cnidrion i love that so much

soft quest
#

i dont get that mutated truffle suggestion, ive been using it and it can easily get 8,000 DPS alone

#

its situational, the only problem with it is its too slow to catch up

frosty trellis
#

Is that on a target dummy or on DoG?

soft quest
#

great for single target though

unborn oriole
#

I love people that don't read the don'ts

frosty trellis
#

Bc dummy tests aren't what stuff is balanced around

soft quest
frosty trellis
#

Stuff isn't balanced around killing weaker stuff though

unborn oriole
#

So we all know how the new Zenith recipe has made it unusable for the stage of the game you get it at.

I bet this guy just watched a Gitgut video or some from that Murasama guy

soft quest
#

ok but when i need to rematch providence at just post providence teir its still gonna be very hard its not a free fight, that doesnt make it a useless accessory

unborn oriole
#

Like dude what

frosty trellis
#

Think you missed the point of the accessory isn't super helpful for the stage of progression you're at bc it's underpowered and not super useful against DoG and Yharon and there really isn't any real synergies with it

hollow shell
#

@primal plank Did you mean to say Ruinous Souls instead of Phantoplasm?
Ruinous Souls are post-Polterghast, Phantoplasm is just post-ML

soft quest
#

i think you think that after you kill prov or sentinels once, youll be able to magically kill them as fast as king slime, i had to fight prov 3 times and polter 3 times, both cases it was great

#

also was good for storm weaver stage 1

#

it saved me on a lot of pain

hollow shell
#

Also I dunno what's up with people saying Zenith is terribly non-viable, but when the testers do DPS tests they find it to be totally fine

#

What's different

drowsy plank
#

randos are bad at the game HDfailure

soft quest
#

because that might not be an accurate representation

drowsy plank
#

it's 3/2/1 i believe

#

3 movent 2 defense 1 damage or something idr

unborn oriole
#

Most people go full menacing anyways i think

#

So idk

small timber
#

I mean many testers are nohitter level of skill

hollow shell
small timber
#

That probably mattered the most

unborn oriole
#

I've seen people that only use offensive accesories with Celestial tracers

tacit dome
#

yo guys do you agree that they should remove malice mode?

drowsy plank
#

doesnt matter because that's already planned

hollow shell
unborn oriole
drowsy plank
#

also read the pins

#

lol

unborn oriole
#

In the end

tacit dome
#

i was just wondering cause i loved malice mode and its my fav way to play but im sad they r removing it :(

unborn oriole
#

It doesn't even matter

hollow shell
tacit dome
#

once i finish master mode ftw malice i will probs do infernum

small timber
#

Just wait for people to readd malice mode as an external mod (it will happen), but ya it will be removed and nothing is changing it

tacit dome
#

this is so sad

#

still love the mod tho

small timber
#

Their expectation of scal and exo kill time is like 3 minutes, while tester balanced kill time is 5 and 7 respectively

unborn oriole
#

"Hmmm, this guy uses ark and not zenith, this means it is shit!"

small timber
#

Or just like "yo this zenith weapon is not as good as spine of thanatos, but it was good in vanilla, this means zenith is shit and should be buffed"

hot zephyr
swift wharf
#

I think that people should stop treating zenith as something special in the context in calamity

swift wharf
#

In terraria it is special, sure

primal plank
#

I'll edit it

swift wharf
#

But here

#

It's just another weapon

#

Same with terraprisma and soaring insignia

hot zephyr
#

zenith is auric so we don't have to slice the stats down

ashen warren
#

and yes I meant the Ruinouse souls

#

but if it was still too strong for that point of the game

unborn oriole
#

Even if devs did so

#

People would be angry

#

Because like

inner anvil
#

That's not the problem, like bruh, why do we need to do that?

unborn oriole
#

"Oh no they nerfed Zenith calamity devs HATE fun!!!"

unborn oriole
ashen warren
#

use Ascendant Spirit Essence inecetade of Ruinace souls

unborn oriole
#

Its much easier and convenient to have it as post-Yharon

unborn oriole
#

Just no

#

It's fine where it is

ashen warren
inner anvil
#

Okay, I read the suggestion, why do we need to do this?

#

Why do we need to bother changing it's tier and it's balance.

ashen warren
#

so this made sense to me since the Zenith was the soul of the terraria journey

fossil finch
#

in vanilla you don't "stitch" them with anything

inner anvil
#

?

unborn oriole
#

Well

hot zephyr
#

it's a sword

unborn oriole
#

It is now at the end of the journey of Calamity mod

inner anvil
#

The "S" word.

ashen warren
#

that throws swords

inner anvil
#

Okay, you do realize that's your opinion, right?

ashen warren
#

yup

#

and that it was a suggestion

inner anvil
#

Alright, we don't agree with it, suggestion done, we aren't doing it.

ashen warren
#

not an order

unborn oriole
#

It's the culmination of your journey? Yes, even in Calamity, because it's endgame

fossil finch
#

also zenith being the soul of the terraria journey kinda lame the soul of the terraria journey should be forcing proper game design under people's throats :troll:

ashen warren
#

ok

unborn oriole
#

Done, it is fine where it is

#

Also Zenith doesn't have lore lmao

inner anvil
#

Like, if you bring us an objective reason why to do that, we'll consider it.

unborn oriole
#

It's just a cool sword

ashen warren
#

ah

fossil finch
#

nadir should be the first weapon wouldn't that be funny

ashen warren
#

then I was just taking stuff out of my asce?

inner anvil
#

Like, apart from the "Lore" or "The Journey", in practical terms, why do testers need to spend their time changing it's tier and balance?

unborn oriole
ashen warren
#

that just sounded cooler to me

inner anvil
#

Well, we don't allow those suggestions for "It'd be cool".

ashen warren
#

and alos calamity have some lore so yea

ashen warren
#

it was just a suggestion

#

nothing more

inner anvil
#

Great.

#

Glad we came to an agreement.

#

Sorry if I sounded rude lmao.

ashen warren
inner anvil
#

Excuse me then.

ashen warren
#

no problem it happens allot

inner anvil
#

It really does.

ashen warren
#

btw does it sound cool story wise?

#

since I'm a bit of a story writer

inner anvil
#

I ain't the best writer, so I'm indifferent.

ashen warren
inner anvil
#

It's fine.

ashen warren
#

better than bad I guess

keen drum
#

i feel like its hard to make the zenith work in calamity just because of how much cooler the later tier swords are

#

as well as how much further the ark line and biome blade lines go

drowsy plank
#

flashy boomerang vs. awesome parry sword

keen drum
#

the zenith recipe rn feels like a hardmode recipe where you combine a bunch of prehardmode things with beetle husks or something

ashen warren
#

you could just make it so when a sword hit it shot its spicefic projectile

drowsy plank
#

i think we should stop trying to change zenith

swift wharf
#

It would be so cool

ashen warren
#

change it? no. make ideas about changing it? yes

inner anvil
#

We'll see if we do something to it, but not our top priorities.

drowsy plank
ashen warren
drowsy plank
#

if you want zenith to be different go make ur own mod or something

swift wharf
#

smth smth lore but zenith doesn't even have a tooltip

ashen warren
drowsy plank
#

if you want a "soul of terraria" just go play fargo's XD

ashen warren
swift wharf
#

AoTC is what zenith tried to be

#

And it succeed

ashen warren
swift wharf
#

Ark of the Cosmos

ashen warren
#

huh, they are similar

swift wharf
#

They're complete opposites in gameplay

#

(aotc is actually interesting)

ashen warren
#

yah (mostly due to visual effects tho)

drowsy plank
#

no aotc has actual mechanics

#

zenith is a fancy boomerang when you get down to the mechanics

ashen warren
#

I know
