you could ask tmod yes but that also requires the items to be made

median scaffold
#

That's also a stone in the lawn of this suggestion

hollow shell
#

I
huh
I wonder actually if this is possible

#

tMod might be able to do it indeed
There are a lot if weird tiny games which have Steam points shop items

glass arch
#

its possible but it would need tmod to sign off on it first

median scaffold
#

...uhh, Rover
Do you think the suggestion should get ❗?

indigo yacht
#

this seems like a spiritual successor to a discord server suggestion

glass arch
#

it doesnt break rules afaik

#

so it should be fine??

median scaffold
#

It technically doesn't have anything to do with the mod itself?

frail mantle
#

mmi'd say it has more to do with the mod than the server

half imp
#

yeah i don't think this technically breaks the rules

#

but it's also probably not going to happen

dense locust
#

technically alowed, the best kind of allowed

half imp
#

if it's even possible

echo leaf
#

I’m sure the art server would love to make Steam assets for calamity, but I also don’t believe it’s possible to make them without having a game first

lucid marsh
#

I am almost certain it's impossible to do that unless you do it by working with the people who make Terraria

glass arch
#

tmod is technically its own game so it would have a shop separate from terrarias iirc

#

so not with relogic but with the tmod team

flint rose
#

this is more of a tmod team suggestion

novel belfry
#

and then other mods would probably demand icons too

echo leaf
#

Timmy’s Coolest Mod will demand five avatars

errant wren
#

feels like a discussion that would need to happen between the tmod team, relogic, and whoever is in charge of the steam points shop

#

then actually having items in the shop feels like something mod devs would have to apply for

#

not that i would know

mint lintel
#

I imagine it'd be seen as more hassle than it's worth by the tModLoader team, especially since that in a way endorses and advertises the most popular mods. There's already enough whining about the most popular mods getting all the spotlight, especially with Calamity.

indigo yacht
#

calamity bad mod...

echo leaf
#

That’s another good point

#

I didn’t think about that

errant wren
#

i still can't wait for [insert obscure instawin mod] to get points shop items 🙏

north oracle
#

Necrosteocytes has the unique effect of being completely unusable for some people while also killing WoF in 10 seconds

dense locust
#

pretty unique if you ask me

#

doesnt it still have like a 90 second aureus

echo leaf
#

yeah

prisma sedge
#

Honestly, I've been thinking about something like this for a while, so I'm all for it!

errant wren
#

make pirate staff a part of the "summon that requires ammo" club and add them to the recipe

#

i will die if that happens

prisma sedge
gilded citrus
prisma sedge
# gilded citrus Atleast like 2-3

Interesting! I didn't know they could do that to begin with
But I guess since Calamity also adds temporary summons that work like homing mage attacks, I guess I can't be surprised that the devs found a way to get creative

errant wren
#

but it would be interesting to see another summon weapon with that function

half imp
#

what if I made pirate staff

#

disappear

errant wren
#

what if pirate staff was good

#

(i do actually think that giving pirates guns would be funny)

half imp
#

honestly perhaps

crude geode
#

#suggestions-posting message
we already have a upgrade for the infernal fork tho, plus the functionality of the weapon is completely different

#

You could also just as easily make it use unholy trident, another weapon with similar look whose functionality is FAR more similar to infernal rift

novel belfry
#

oh yeahh

#

that exists

crude geode
#

Yep

echo leaf
#

No weapons whatsoever do either to my knowledge
Only the Flask of Midas and equipping the Lucky Coin/Greedy Ring make it work

olive saddle
#

I do think the 2 giants of tmod should get point shop stuff but its definitely an if and not a when

half imp
#

I doubt it'll happen

olive saddle
#

Unfortunately yea probably not

worthy lintel
#

clearly the pirates from the staff should fly because the flying dutchman uses magic...

Every mod should get. one.

#

every mod

worthy lintel
#

the shop

worn elk
#

does anyone know what you actually have to do to make steam points shop stuff

indigo yacht
#

i believe there are at least 2 different spells involved

grim tusk
#

we should add time bolt to every recipe since stuff needs time

dense locust
#

true...

indigo yacht
#

all recipes should either require or produce a certain amount of endothermic energy

#

alongside whatever else is in the recipe

Really odd surge of suggestions lately

cold cosmos
#

It's almost like Calamity fans can't read or something

worthy lintel
#

you should be able to ride thanatos and make him use his gamma beam against the other exos

prisma sedge
#

Even jokes aside, that sounds like a sick idea for an offensive mount

median scaffold
#

WoTG coded...

echo leaf
#

I just wanna ride Thanatos because friend

#

Ares already kind of has the problem of being able to avoid 90% of what he does by just running to the side and occasionally moving down, I don’t think he can afford to be much slower. It’s not like melee doesn’t have flails and spears and other ranged weapons either.

echo leaf
#

The only melee weapons which suffer against ares are true melee

#

which is unfortunate but not the end of the world

dense locust
#

the true melee weapon in question:

upbeat tundra
#

I mean you can still use them (to great success too from what I hear) when he stops moving and especially for Thanatos. It’s only a big problem if someone is doing only true melee, and at that point it’s not the mod’s problem

indigo yacht
#

this is why you should stack frog leg

frail fox
median scaffold
indigo yacht
#

12% is a smaller number than 32% sorry

dense locust
#

moment

median scaffold
dense locust
#

this is why we should make quick scale with progression

frail fox
#

I mean Ares does have a true melee resist lol but hopefully that gets removed at some point

dense locust
#

WHY

upbeat tundra
#

Isn’t Dragon Pow literally always the best option for Ares anyway

dense locust
#

why was it not just a murasamae resist

indigo yacht
#

can we just rework the exos already please

frail fox
indigo yacht
echo leaf
#

also a 50% true melee resist

dense locust
frail fox
#

Lmao?

#

I mean yeah probably

#

It’s true melee

dense locust
#

hilarious

novel belfry
echo leaf
#

big funny

#

infernum inherits all the resistances but makes ares consistently hittable

#

it still fucking evaporates

dense locust
#

lmao?

echo leaf
#

clearly the solution is to increase true melee resist

dense locust
#

100% true melee resist with an additional 50% resist to dragon rage specifically

indigo yacht
#

dragon rage now heals the boss

echo leaf
#

perfect for griefing if you can hit him with it

median scaffold
#

>Be me
>Becomes the aggro-tank
>Grabs the Healing Dragon Rage
>Ares XD

echo leaf
#

It would be funny if you had a weapon that heals both your friends (or yourself in singleplayer) and your enemies

exhumed vampire knifes

echo leaf
#

dense locust
#

huge

upbeat tundra
echo leaf
#

oh no, that was just a little tidbit to show what would happen if ares was consistently hittable

novel belfry
#

or even, again, just do what the Eternity Exo Mechs (incidentally also by Lucille iirc) do and just make them move like actual entities instead of being glued to a specific part of the screen

echo leaf
#

There’s nothing wrong with being anchored in place relative to the player but Ares specifically just spends way too long anchored like that imo

glass arch
#

as i said

#

ares is so fast it feels like its a png stapled to the top of your screen instead of an actual entity

maiden quartz
#

^^

median scaffold
#

Technically, Ares is just a png
Or a gif

fleet grotto
#

i feel like the same can be said for a&a, for similar and different reasons

indigo yacht
#

at least you can hit ares with true melee 💔

fleet grotto
#

like they actually move but they're also even more stuck to your screen than ares

dense ferry
#

I like how A&A move a lot

fleet grotto
#

them being stuck to your screen does make sense since they are kinda. made to be fast

#

just really agile

dense ferry
#

I think they do a good job at masking how they are just stuck there with how they move, their switches and Ohio Beam preparations could be made better but overall they're fine

#

Ares ACTUALLY just looks like a PNG

fleet grotto
#

ithink their tails also really help

indigo yacht
#

i think we all know the logical procession of this

crude geode
#

Thanatos plays snake on your screen?

indigo yacht
#

no give ares a tail

dense ferry
#

True!

#

Ares has one benefit in all of this tho

#

All Skeletrons have VERY SNAPPY movement

#

So him snapping back to the top of the screen is perfectly fine because every other Skeletron does that already

royal tapir
#

Other Skeletrons do not have instantaneous acceleration

tepid crown
dense ferry
royal tapir
#

It can afford to not be instantaneous but very fast

dense ferry
#

Yeah, and still look natural and in line

#

Because every other Skeletron does that already

fleet grotto
#

ares if his arms moved a little more

north oracle

Time for the inevitable pileup of suggestions to start

indigo yacht
#

Make all Destroyer lasers homing

the worst part is, I think the only rule this violates is bringing back removed content

fleet grotto
#

Bomb Elsi's address

frail fox
#

Don’t worry, before only like 1/3 of Dest’s lasers were homing so making them all homing should be fine

dense locust
#

true...

indigo yacht
#

Awesome! Thank

dense locust
#

would unironcically be easier depending on the level of homing they have

#

erm

whole tundra
#

I swear I didn't make a passing suggestion this time

errant wren
#

suspiciously silvaheart-ily written suggestion:

astral radish
#

Has there ever been a discussion about changing how the power cell weapons function on here?

frail fox
#

Too many

glass arch
#

yeah no theres been like 70 (all suggestions about it have been denied)

astral radish
#

Cuz like I think it needs to be a point of discussion. Cuz the mechanic is more of a chore than anything which probably discourages people from using the weapons even if they're fun, viable and visually impressive

maiden quartz
dense locust
#

green ones yes

#

they used to home

astral radish
#

Have the devs said why it isn't being changed?

dense locust
#

and the blue ones froze you

maiden quartz
#

WTF

indigo yacht
#

game design is hard

frail fox
#

They were so cool

glass arch
#

sidenote how the fuck do you make straight lines home without either jank or dustspam.gif

olive saddle
dense locust
#

they just did

frail fox
#

Well the hitbox is just the tip

#

So that homed

olive saddle
#

Many people reject it as people coping

#

Or being bad

astral radish
olive saddle
#

No actually if people compain that much then that's not them coping

#

I think they did change one thing but it doesn't fix them being a chore

astral radish
#

Like the whole charge mechanic isn't even like detrimental to the use of the weapons

olive saddle
#

Im not sure why its there but it is and its here to stay apparently

astral radish
#

The issue is that it adds nothing of value besides being an extra chore you have to do

olive saddle
#

I like the idea of charge but it could work way differently than it does now because yea it doesn't change much

astral radish
#

I dont mind it staying. But it should be interactive and add dynamics to the weapons

#

Not just function as a glorified durability meter

rugged belfry
#

I imagine that if they have denied so many suggestions about power cells they are either planning changes already or it's completely off the table

#

Really hoping for the former

astral radish
#

I hope it's the first and not just stubbornness

olive saddle
#

They're here to stay

glass arch
#

iirc ozz said at one point charge was essentially a tech demo to see if a mechanic like it would even work and it didnt so there wont be mechanics like it in the future

astral radish
#

If it didn't work. Why is it still there

olive saddle
#

There probably is an answer to that question

#

I understand how nightmarish development can be so there's probably a reason

astral radish
#

Maybe its a skarner or pineapple png situation

#

Where the entire mod doesn't function without it

grim tusk
#

Brimflame is supposed to remove mana recovery

#

In exchange for huge dmg

#

And the DoT debuff

#

Thats why you can toggle it

#

Next patch you cannot use mana potions while the bonus is up

glass arch
#

the issue was specifically that until citfix.png it didnt remove mana potions

dense locust
grim tusk
#

Since it boosts regen

#

If it does then that should be removed too

dense locust
#

does it?
I was under the impression it was more like nebula boosters

glass arch
#

boosts regen and iirc lets you use mana at the same time you regen it

grim tusk
#

@inland saddle bot died?

dense locust
#

perma coc now meta for brimflame

prisma sedge
#

Permawhat

glass arch
dense locust
#

permafrost concoction

dense locust
#

flower did better for most weapons

glass arch
#

dont care flower can die in a hole

dense locust
#

true...

dense locust
glass arch
#

that works

dense locust
#

for now...

glass arch
#

cit intentionally left that in

dense locust
#

ah

#

ok

#

w cit

drifting socket
dense locust
#

I am going to kill you

glass arch
#

magic cuffs and star statues work with the set bonus because they require setup and also magic cuffs suck complete and utter ass

dense locust
#

I will never understand the cuffs hate

#

its a good accessory if you use it right

glass arch
#

using it right kills you

#

the goal in a fight is generally to get hit as little as possible

dense locust
#

oh no I take 30 damage from a destroyer laser and gained half my mana back

olive saddle
#

My issue is that it doesn't inherit the mana regen band bonus which is better if you don't take damage often

dense locust
#

mfw an accessory that does something when you get hit isnt very good if you dont get hit
regen band is frankly not very good but I agree it should be a part of the item

glass arch
#

its the one vanilla combo item that doesnt actually combo its effects

novel belfry
glass arch
#

also its an accessory intended to be used i assume while tanking yet it gives. no defense

novel belfry
#

exactly

dense locust
novel belfry
#

so why just lock it there for that reasoning?

glass arch
novel belfry
#

it seems downright unfair if one dev decides, "oops im just gonna lock this" and prevent it from reaching devcord

glass arch
novel belfry
#

let the devcord judge it

#

okay, that makes more sense

#

if it conflicts with plans, sure

glass arch
glass arch
#

so comparing star veil and magic cuffs is inherently flawed

novel belfry
#

this was posted around the beginning of the year, about two months ago, and yet im still pretty hardline on getting it to the dev server

glass arch
#

yeah you can repost a suggestion as many times as you want

#

there just has to come a point where you realize people just arent voting for it

novel belfry
#

i'll see

#

also fair point

prisma sedge
#

Honestly, I think it'd be worth removing the fact that their projectiles spawn sand to begin with...like yeah, it'd mess up the infinite sand farms a select few players use, but there is practically no reason for why an enemy should be able to spawn permanent blocks in your world that you have to manually clean up after killing them

#

At the very least, they could be temporary like ice rod blocks

sleek turret
#

infinite sand farms?

glass arch
#

for sand gun

sleek turret
#

we had that alredy its shimmering ale

glass arch
sleek turret
#

ale -> mug -> glass tiles -> sand

glass arch
#

like antlions spawning sand at all isnt an issue the issue is how much death mode antlions shit out

prisma sedge
sleek turret
#

not everything interesting is good

prisma sedge
#

It's not like the placement of those sand blocks usually makes it more or less difficult to fight them, it's just something you have to pull out your pickaxe for to clean up when you're in the middle of running across the desert

glass arch
#

or you can ignore it

dense locust
prisma sedge
# glass arch or you can ignore it

As someone who likes to keep certain areas as flat planes for the purpose of running across them and structure building stuff, that's a tall ask

sleek turret
#

i mean early on you get free stuff to snipe the enemy out which is xd

#

its 10 seconds of cleaning or less though its not that bad

echo leaf
#

the farm will still exist, just one method is removed

prisma sedge
#

And again, there's just no reason to keep it the way it is aside from it technically taking less work to not change what projectile they use

indigo yacht
#

or you could just like

#

disable death mode

#

genius!

glass arch
# glass arch or you can ignore it

ignoring it is an issue specifically if youve flattened the surface which is frankly something much too time consuming for the end result

glass arch
#

i can say that for certain because i also do it and i play multiplayer with people that do it too

indigo yacht
prisma sedge
glass arch
#

but not on rails so just throw a few rails down on top of the platforms and boom problem solved

sleek turret
#

or just kill the enemy if you can probably

glass arch
#

the issue is not the fact that they do it this issue has always been how much death mode antlions shit out

prisma sedge
#

I'm...kind of surprised that some people are in support of this being kept

sleek turret
#

maybe make it throw sand projectiles clone that doesn't transform into sand tiles when it touches ground if its that bad

prisma sedge
#

Like, my reasoning here is that it's annoying to deal with if it matters at all, and doesn't serve much of a functional purpose since getting large amounts of sand when you need it is laughably easy without them, so it doesn't need to be in the game, and they could just change the projectile it uses to one that doesn't spawn sand blocks...like Desert Scourge's

violet zephyr
#

Everyone talking about how this affects the Surface, but not the Underground...

indigo yacht
#

underground is already shit hard to make it worse 🔥

prisma sedge
#

I think they can affect cacti and antlion eggs too, which is annoying

glass arch
#

its completely inconsequential, it only takes a couple seconds to clean up at most
it takes nearly no effort to get rid of in normal circumstances

violet zephyr
#

Much, much more likely to suffocate you, too.

prisma sedge
glass arch
#

because it makes you actually engage with the enemy rather than just oh look generic projectile time to kill it

prisma sedge
#

That's how...most enemies are, and they're usually fine for that

fleet grotto
#

how about we make it even worse and make it guaranteed explode sand spit on death like flow invaders

glass arch
#

yes that is how most enemies are but that doesnt force every enemy to be like that

indigo yacht
glass arch
#

theres gotta be some kind of variance otherwise it all melts into mindless slog

indigo yacht
#

personally i think there's a reason why so very few enemies have the ability to place/remove blocks

prisma sedge
#

Well yeah, but they can be varietal without being a nuisance

#

It only forces you to engage with it by making it more annoying to deal with after it's dead the longer you leave it alive

fleet grotto
#

it's hard to engage with an enemy when there can be multiple of said enemy at once as well as every other enemy and obstacle down there

#

or, can be

indigo yacht
#

you're not really engaging with the enemy you're engaging in 7-S

glass arch
#

it incentivizes you to try to kill the enemy first because there are actual tangible consequences to not killing it

mint lintel
#

That isn't really a good thing.

glass arch
#

anyways this isnt going anywhere we arent gonna convince the other party that our side is correct

indigo yacht
#

that doesn't mean they're fun or interesting to deal with

glass arch
#

oh im fine with those

#

its shit like silenced that i have an issue with

dense locust
#

why does silenced exist

#

its just shitty cursed

prisma sedge
#

Ah pbth, sorry, my shift key's been acting buggy

I like this other suggestion too

olive saddle
#

You use right shift??

prisma sedge
#

I use left shift for capitalization, but right shift for making new lines and some symbols

olive saddle
#

thats

weird but i can understand it

prisma sedge
#

It's mostly because I'm not the type to keep my hands in one place while I'm typing, so I'm more used to moving my hand over and clicking shift with my thumb and enter with my middle finger, even if it's a bit impractical

@frosty trellis - Your suggestion has received an updated status!

[Remove the "Mana cannot Regen" from Brimflame Frenzy]

It has been decided that your suggestion can neither be passed nor denied; either the devs have already made plans that conflict with it, or they have decided to implement an altered version.

indigo yacht
#

ok isn't this an excessive effort suggestion

#

also tbh it doesn't make much sense to me but i digress

indigo yacht
#

oh this also has no reasoning either

#

@uncut ruin you need a reason why your suggestion should be implemented, also i think yours might constitute an "extreme effort" suggestion which aren't allowed

uncut ruin
#

Wups

drowsy plank
#

plague minibiome was something that was already on the docket of possibilities so this sugg is funny

indigo yacht
#

might not be against the rules then but you do need reasoning regardless

half imp
drowsy plank
#

actually yeah i think "new biome" is one of the explicitly listed

#

you already pinged them so ill just flag it

plus the suggestion lacks reasoning

so that on its own gets a flag

surely it will happen this time clueless

anyways you can still just abuse zerg potion or death mode blood moon which are just easier than boss fights are

#

I don't mind this idea, it could be a positive change, but it will not at all achieve the desired effect

fleet grotto
#

I do think boss money farming should be nerfed in some way. It's just way, way too easy,has 0 cost, and is efficient.

median scaffold
#

I think it is already changed in the next update, but can't say for sure

echo leaf
#

I don't know how one would change boss money farming in any vaguely positive way

#

Changing the prices of items dropped will change how expensive they are to reforge

#

Changing the quantity means it's more difficult to get any given item

median scaffold
#

iirc, bosses themselves drop less money

echo leaf
#

oh fml i completely forgot they did that

whole tundra
#

@silver bramble This conflicts with future plans, a ton of prices are already getting severely nerfed

silver bramble
#

Does that mean the prices are going up, or the prices are going down (so money doesn't matter), or boss drops are going down, or boss drops are going down and prices are going up, or what?

#

From context this could mean nearly anything.

echo leaf
#

The amount of money you earn from one boss kill will be reduced.

As in, changing the value of every item and the dropped money of everything

#

And, shocker

#

That solves nothing

#

Because after you beat a single Boss, money loses all of its value because you can just farm them infinitely

#

Unless we made the overall yield of Bosses a complete joke

gilded citrus
dense ferry
#

As I said, the system would require to be completely overhauled, every price and reward would need to be changed and the yield would become near worthless

#

And at a certain point it'd STILL DOESN'T MATTER

#

Because shops stop being a reliable source of weapons after PHM

#

And then once you got to like, Plantera you already have more money than you'd ever need anyways

#

It's also impossible to make Boss money rewards actually balanced because they'll become easily farmable as soon as you beat them

#

And you can just repeat them infinitely

#

And then I ask you

drowsy plank
#

uhhhhh you see this is why goblin tinkerer was actually good cause he ate ALL of your money-

dense ferry
#

Do you prefer unconsumable Boss items, or money being "balanced"?

gilded citrus
#

Honestly
Boss items were like
Never a problem for me

#

In vanilla

dense ferry
#

Yeah, in Vanilla

gilded citrus
#

Nice qol tho

#

-# wiat yeah cal summons seem horrendous if consumable

dense ferry
#

Now imagine Rev Skeletron Prime but you need a new boss summon for every attempt

violet zephyr
#

Simply make things really expensive.

gilded citrus
#

Gotta kill guardians after losing to providence

violet zephyr
#

Imagine needing to craft one hundred Cosmic Worms.

dense ferry
#

So, yeah

gilded citrus
dense ferry
#

"Balancing" money is impossible without completely overhauling the system and also making adjacent mechanics not exploitable

#

And not only is that a lot of work, it's also not worth it

dense locust
echo leaf
#

i'm down for that

dense ferry
#

I'm not

"Fun pranks to play on your friends"

#

just remove coin drops from enemies clueless after all, if antlions dont drop banana splits, why should they drop pocket change?

dense ferry
#

That'd be an absurd catastrophe for any new player who'd be coming from Vanilla and now suddenly they can't get it from specific sources because they ran out

#

And that's also not accounting for Goblin Tinkerer bullshitery, some players would just have a lot of trouble minmaxing a build or reforging all of their weapons

echo leaf
#

i dranked it all

dense locust
fleet grotto
#

this feels unreal

echo leaf
#

the only way to balance making reforges free is to make the more powerful reforges rarer

indigo yacht
#

weapon that deals more damage the more times it has been reforged

dense locust
#

no?

#

that just makes the process take longer

indigo yacht
fleet grotto
#

yeah no

dense locust
#

tedium =/= difficulty

#

and reforging is only the former

indigo yacht
echo leaf
#

yall are no fun

dense ferry
#

Reforging is a mechanic Cal all but removes, because it does not fit well for our balancing methods

indigo yacht
#

weapon reforges decrease in quality as the weapon is used (like durability)

#

i mean, that's why you reforge something, right?

indigo yacht
dense locust
dense ferry
#

Yeah no I hate this, sorry

dense locust
#

valid

indigo yacht
#

imo

dense locust
indigo yacht
#

if npc shops were more like... easier ways to get otherwise rare or tedious items i think it would be fine, but as it stands they have a lot of things that can only be bought and the idea that you can just be completely locked out of them isn't one i am fond of

#

idk i was thinking of it as sort of a "short cut" thing

dense locust
#

fair enough

#

tbh the focus isnt so much on limited money so much as its on killing the "I need money so lets do do the same thing over and over"
the idea is more to encourage finding new sources of money once x method has been run dry

indigo yacht
#

i do like the idea of bestiary completion giving money

#

it could realistically be tied into the world thematically as well

#

rather than the fuckin monster just carry around pocketfuls of coins for some reason

indigo yacht
dense ferry
#

Me when the single biggest staple of RPGs is being questioned by modern gamers

dense locust
#

I would argue the biggest staple of rpgs is the leveling up system

prisma sedge
#

I agree with the bestiary thing, just feels like a smoother way to implement the same general idea if it's possible

north oracle
indigo yacht
#

more reforge variety, fair

upbeat tundra
#

Imo the actual money problem is that killing Brain or Eoc gives you a plat worth of their respective ore, and those bosses are piss easy to farm. I usually end up with infinite money pre-hm

silver bramble
#

i feel like you could

#

idk

#

make regular enemies drop almost no money

#

make bosses drop some money (like 50 gold at late HM)

errant wren
#

selling boss drops in question:

silver bramble
#

slash sell prices too

#

so even if you sell all the boss drops from a boss

#

after first kill you might scrape like 5 gold

#

for like a mid HM boss

#

plantera or mechs or sum

distant gyro
#

have done, soz

#

but just the base money from boss drops

#

/ any particularly overtuned sell prices

indigo yacht
#

cutting boss drop sell prices feels like a band-aid fix that would cause more issues than it would solve

distant gyro
#

so ie. if you raided the draedon labs but decided to sock everything for money you no longer get a plat

indigo yacht
#

day ruined /j

#

what are they sold for now

distant gyro
#

idk find out yourself

indigo yacht
#

💔

distant gyro
#

as far as i remember both materials went from 6s to 3s and factories/chargers went from 10g to 50s

indigo yacht
#

:WHAT:

#

obviously warranted but a 95% decrease seems a bit much

#

oh well

distant gyro
#

selling factories is a onetime decision and also should not be lucrative because you need those cells

#

chargers idc

indigo yacht
#

fair

distant gyro
#

free money anyway

indigo yacht
#

especially since you can get chargers and factories like 5 minutes into making a world

#

just get like 200 rope

distant gyro
#

still sell more than most furniture items

distant gyro

forgot to respond

#

its on the bosses themselves that are dropping substantially more money that vanilla (as changed)

it would be such a cool addition

are we going to let cog take that away

its a good feeture tho

actually just make the coin fly into nearby enemies and then have them pickup the coin

and aa's single resist!

I'm sure fitting all of this in one tooltip is possible.

drowsy plank
#

surely this will have 0 problems clueless

dense locust
#

whats even the first boss to have resistances?

#

destro?

rugged belfry
#

Or you could discover a boss's weakness by playing the game and trying different things clueless clueless

Maybe be a better solution would be to have some kind of indicator during the fight that shows an attack was resisted

drowsy plank
dense locust
indigo yacht
#

i don't think there's an elegant way to do this

rugged belfry
drifting socket
drowsy plank
#

a sound effect for resisted hits would probably be fine

#

otherwise yeah

drifting socket
#

Just during a boss fight some sort of indicator that your current weapon is more or less effective

drowsy plank
#

it'd just be messy

rugged belfry
#

That's what I was thinking

#

Just telling the player is a bad solution

indigo yacht
#

what happens when you have a really fast firing weapon 💔

river glen
river glen
#

so hitting a hit wouldnt really tell u much if its only hitting for a small amount

indigo yacht
#

the only decent way i can think of implementing this would be to like... show that a weapon does -% damage when a boss is alive in the tooltip but obviously that has a number of problems in itself

violet zephyr
#

I think the problem is that resistances are meant to be hidden. By simply stating something is resisted, people aren't going to use it, even if it still the best performing weapon.

indigo yacht
#

true

#

zenith annihilates ares despite ares having like a 25% zenith resistance

drowsy plank
#

yeah there's just

indigo yacht
#

ok, 20%

drowsy plank
#

no real point in showing resistances to be frank

echo leaf
#

true melee against Deus

drowsy plank
#

if a weapon is underperforming, obviously the resistance could be a factor, but that's more of an issue for #1178515062030348308 on a weapon by weapon basis than for the entire mechanic

violet zephyr
#

Imagine if you get told that your Wave Pounder's damage is cut by 80% on DoG.

#

No one would use it.

river glen
#

otherwise people go wiki hunting

indigo yacht
#

the info is on the wiki wires

river glen
#

which i hear is not really fun

indigo yacht
#

the wiki exists for a reason

river glen
#

sure

#

the wiki exists, but info should at least be obtainable in some way shape or form

indigo yacht
#

why should it be

river glen
#

why not?

indigo yacht
#

there's plenty of other info that's only available on the wiki

#

such as shadow armor and magiluminescence not stacking, blood moons starting at 200+hp instead of 160+, mana regen rework, actually i don't think shadow armor being nerfed is anywhere ingame either besides feeling it

river glen
#

why should the info be only available there, some of them u wil encounter or it not mattering as much

indigo yacht
#

why does the info need to be available ingame

echo leaf
#

If someone uses a weapon that happens to be resisted to the point where it’s unusable and they don’t stop using it, that’s their fault

rugged belfry
#

You can actually attack the bosses to see what they resist

#

Hope this helps

indigo yacht
#

oh, yeah, also I don't think the pierce resistance mechanic is mentioned anywhere in cal

river glen
restive wharf
#

How long does it normally take for the suggestion bot to notify you that you have passed for dev voting

river glen
#

maybe it plays a sound depending on the resistances

drowsy plank
#

if a weapon is unusable because of its resistances the resistances should be changed or removed

#

which falls within the scope of balance problems

indigo yacht
drowsy plank
#

resistances exist because weapons overperform, and the tweaking of resistances should mean the weapon is always viable, not unusable

indigo yacht
#

as a general rule of thumb, just don't use a weapon if it sucks

river glen
#

how would u know that

indigo yacht
#

why it sucks isn't important

drowsy plank
#

using it

#

probably

#

and if you don't like it/it seems weak use another

rugged belfry
#

I like the idea of a sound or visual effect when a boss resists something you use against it

drowsy plank
#

i think the funniest part of all of this

#

is vanilla does this too

indigo yacht
#

the problem with showing resistances is that sure it can explain why some weapons are bad, but what about the ones that are still good

drowsy plank
#

and never indicates it anywhere
