Done?
one orb
Killing Calamitas also triggers Post-Plantera Dungeon. Both these bosses are sorta on the same pedestal, so why not have both of them advance the progression?
I'll format it later
I'd star that instantly.
Alrighty
pretty sure everyone doe
and in much better ways than that
oh shit sorry
mmm
@keen palm I don't think you can do that because its hardcoded in vanilla iirc
we're definitely gonna need to work through some of the more popular suggestions one of these days
^ What do you mean?
I think that's what Fab said
We have a list of the stuff that gets sent to the dev server.
like the screams echoing from the dungeon message is hardcoded into plant and can't be changed?
Lookin through, we'll probably look at fixes and utility before weapons and such
hmmm, maybe have a workaround my instantly summoning plant and butchering it ( without drops ofcourse )
sssso
well might be cheating for some
hey @hearty yew uh
Also, Kool-Aid, could you work that first sentence like a suggestion instead of a statement?
sorry to ping you but could I get a looksee to see if something is practical? I have a massive suggestion in the works
but it involves an additional piece of world gen
and I'd like your input on it
you talked with us about the efficacy of an ice castle before so I figured you'd know
What
I edited it
oh no
What Ice Castle?
is it better?
I meant the "cryogen spawns an ice castle"
the underground ice tomb thing
you're thinking of an ice tomb
uhhhh
I was thinking more along the lines of "Make it so killing Calamitas also triggers Post-Plantera Dungeon.", Kool-Aid
tl;dr ozza, is it possible to add a large new section to the Temple
superimposing structures over the world after worldgen is extremely risky
like, when the world generates
how do you know the player hasn't placed chests every 10 feet everywhere on the surface
if it's during world gen yes absolutely
anything can happen
so before any action is taken, a large section is added beneath the existing- great, thanks
see the current ice tomb thing, it could just become permafrosts castle instead or whatever
just wanted to know that before saying "there's an upside down pyramid attached to the temple"
world gen causes issues only when poorly coded
Do you care if copy that quote or?
Do it
also, on a weapon idea... would a post-Yharon weapon that deals low damage but basically multiplies the damage of the ammo it uses by 100 be overpowered?
it'd be a rail gun similar in style to the titanium rail gun, firing slowly
changed
consuming 20 ammo per shot
sorry for being a dumb dumb
wtf copying railgun upgrade ideas smmhmh
20 ammo per shot

indeed i did
yeah this one is pretty different
there is a complete lack of guns between dragons breath and Dev items
And of course, naturally there's a glut of Dev guns
Everyone wants a cool gun as their Dev item
I know
clearly
WHERE'S THE GUNGEON
hint hitne
I could see if shifting the recipe for the lorentz cannon could work
just pop in a soul fragment or auric ore here n there
make the coin gun drop even more hype 
theres been like 3 really high quality exo gun suggestions
hopefully someone donates for one or something
i still love anaera the most
the Anaera is probably the coolest
Grand Finale was the most recent one
i like anaera the best
grand finale looked like a minigun of sorts, while the anaera took shape of a futuristic rifle
Anaera was Enrendon's gun?
Enreden, ye
I knew I spelled the name wrong
RNG gun 

Step 1 to making Fishbunjin liking a weapon: Add RNG
Necrogeckocon
“The words “Klaatu Ferata” are legible.”
Summoner Weapon. A snake-skin bound book with a creepy face on the cover. Uses one summon slot to spawn two modified Reanihmated, their upper bodies being normal and their lower bodies being a fiery blue cloud. Fly after enemies, dealing contact damage and inflicting Necrovirus on contact. Reanihmated ignore I-frames.
how does this weapon look
it's part of the mix of lizahrd content
Reanihmated being lizahrd skeletons
oh
and Necrovirus is a debuff that deals DoT and inflicts a slow
nothing to that, no?
it looks good imo
is the suggestion too long?
Hold on, it was specifically stated there would be a xeroc superboss
holy shit RNG yoyo
I saw Fishbunjin suggestion and immediately knew it had rng 
im not gonna self-star because self star bad
syg already got you covered
anything i need to touch up upon the suggestion?
Lightning Rod*
considering presidents votes for themselves its fine from how i see it 

a post-sentinel yoyo could easily work for DoG and defo birb, but it'd be like a "fun" or off-meta weapon for Yharon i'd assume.
unless you were good with RNG, then you'd be fine for yharon 
i noticed how the suggestion perfectly fits with the chat on default text size settings and fullscreen so its the first one to see for new messages 
well, obliterator already isn't super good for yharon and scal iirc
obliterator is
iirc
too big for mobile
ah rip
@weak rain name your character fabsol and equip a lul and tell me its irritating
They know what lul does
It's more for unsuspecting players stuck in a death cycle
hm
"equal chance"
Give to Astral Pike a some projectile
: Vanilla and Calamity's post-Plant spears usually have projectiles on using, which leave Astral-tier spear a useless. Auto-swing doesn't add much usability to this weapon.
I almost never use melee because i am a summoner, so i havent tried the astral pike, but that seems like a nice change
Should I do anything about my suggestion having 50 ⭐ but no check or just wait 
Which one?
I had a suggestion ages back about a Flailron upgrade that got like 55 stars but i dont think it even got added in
That’s why i suggested a post-yharon flail
yea
also there was a really good suggestion about a post-polter throwing wep that was just throwing a giant titanic
also, what did you think of my D-20 suggestion?
Might be a bit of a pain to code but seems pretty cool
aye, that is true
Yay
uh its flairon not flailron
Mine was just Profaned Guardians visible on minimap during Providence fight 
@frail mantle

the scissor got sent to dev server
now its time for the rock in the RPS trio
Tho why not Flareon for the puns xd
flareon because Pokémon references 
Inb4, the flareon is the literal flail
How many votes are needed to be considered?
oof they're drowned out as hell but both Disco Balldohr and Chronolline are within 13 likes of 50
fingers crossed

listen
i'm not fishing im just remaining hopeful
since someone mentioned the RPS trio
anyways in other news the giant fucking temple-related suggestion me and vorbis collab'd on will probably be posted tomorrow
it was pretty fun working together on it tbh
Sentries that shoot out bullets
Lots of sentries shoot stuff 🤔
A mini gun sentry, basically just a rotating mini gun that shoots at shit
Why punish people for playing multiplayer
Calamity is about difficulty (mostly) Multiplayer makes everything easy
I don't really care either way but I think that's a sorta good reason
If they’re playing with friends they’re already not playing it mega-serious
It punishes the people who don’t want to play that way while doing nothing for the people who -do-
Like if you want that difficulty then don’t set a spawn near the fight
Why give a blanket punishment for people who want to play the mod with friends
It’s not fair
Tbh it's a bit scummy to not have to worry about dying but MP is eh anyway
There’s already the long respawn timer
The most intense moments of my MP playthroughs are when one player is the only one alive
And they have to hold out til the others respawn
If I want the mod to be its most difficult I’ll play it on my own
Which is what I’m doing now, I’m up to the brimstone elemental in revengeance
Honestly the only reason why I actually don't like MP is that calamity is very much a singleplayer mod
It adds like 3 MP accs
Compared to something like thorium
Which is more than what terraria basic has
But that's mostly a "theme" thing
At a whopping one
But it’s upgrades for the vanilla one
So it’s not fair to say there’s no attention paid to multiplayer
There clearly is
When my and my friend where doing scal death mode together when one died and respawned then the other died scal will go across half the map to fight them and kill all ncps
There's like 10% attention paid
But I'm bad at playing devils advocate in this situation so meh
And how does that mean you need to punish all multiplayer
Like
SCal comes for your NPCs
Doesn't mean that at all 
So punish all respawning?
You did say stuff about attention though
We honestly just want a way to remove a dead player from the fight so it will leave us alone.
Also me and my friend do want a tough challenge playing multiplayer
And being able to just throw bodies at any boss to kill it
When a boss is alive players become ghosts?
Celestial Warriors
Post-ML Enemies
Upgraded versions of Posseded Armor, but with new things.
Solar Warriors rapidly shoots to player Daybreaks.
Nebula Warriors teleports on hit and shoots Arcanums.
Vortex Warriors creates portals, was shoots barrages of luminite bullets and arrows, also jumps very high.
Stardust Warriors summons Star Cells on taking gamage.
Drops: respective 2-3 celestial fragments, 1-2 Luminite.
Then respawn once it's dead
If that’s what you want then enforce your OWN rules
What's i'm need to change?
no it's not
If you want a difficult multiplayer playthrough maybe take some responsibility and enforce your own rules
It’s not like it’s difficult to let a boss kill you
Most bosses do it in two seconds if you let them
i told you it was a bad concept but you used it anyway >->
It was nerfed solely because in stuff like #help-advice-read-pins people were going on about "just farm halibut" instead of teaching them to play the game
That’s not even related
Halibut is single or multiplayer for one, koh
Two, it’s an item
And you want the devs to bend the game for you
Nerfing the halibut is a dead trend.
Three, and most importantly

I guide others to a treasure I cannot possess
I am the 49th star T_T
I have 51 stars and no check mark on my suggestion
Bobylev I don't know why but I don't like it
I’m friends with a couple mods
I like the idea, but replacing possessed armors will make farming that amulet for Auric Tesla awkward
Yeah I don’t think you should replace the possessed armor with those
^
For that reason
Thank you Vick
Lol np
Added.
Player respawns in 45 seconds.
Death-mode bosses kills mostly in 20 secs.
Finally: your suggestion is useless. 
Player on second respawning doesn't look to bosses, because it before flies away.
Psychotic Amulet is what the item I was referring to is called @earnest raptor
I think
@pure vector Sorry I'm late but it's 100% called the "Brimstone Crag" now, to prevent confusion with anything relating to Providence
I still call it the Calamity biome sometimes 


Holy SHIT I didn't even realize Fake Orchestra got 57 stars
still waiting for that damn orchestra
I don't know where the real orchestra is 

Afterlife Amulet
12% increased damage and critical strike chance
+70 max mana
Gives extra life regen when below 50% life
Having any flame-related debuff gives even more life regen
Surrounds you with a life aura that occasionally fires leaves at enemies
You will be revived once per life with 50% hp
Made from 1 nebulous core + 1 permafrost’s concoction + 7 uelibloom bars + 5 living shards at a Draedon’s forge
From where crit comes? 
His ass
r00d
critical shit

It's Liza-hard to spell smh
I'm sorry, this was written by both me and lilith
there are probably a couple errors
Lihzahrd*
ye
okay!
all lizahrds are now lizhahrds
wait
lih
fuck I'm an idiot
okay! all lzhahrds are now lihzahrds
just call them lizards tbh
No
^
Phosphorescence is down the drain then. 3 apparently awful weapon upgrades are a nope.

at least a crummy lihzahrd idea is getting up there
Smh your well thought-out, smart rework of a forgotten structure that took days to plan out with both Lilith and you has just as many stars as my shitty idea that took 5 minutes to write alone 
oh hush
because some small changes might be useful/good QoL changes that people might want
i kinda wanna see the lihzahrd suggestion get in so i can explore a lategame post golem environment phm instead of just a post plant environment phm
That sounds interesting
I rarely do summoner outside of SCal but starring anyway because concept is great imo
New update, Give all Boss sprites a Santa hat for Christmas. No matter how Sloppy it is 😉
Because golem is in it
I'm just proud of a couple things
like the Auric Cog Tyrant
and the Necrogeckocon
also I'm glad people are actually reading it
I was kind of afraid because it was a google doc it wouldn't see any interest
Bombinomicon
necronomicon
a google doc got 50!
thank you, thank you
never thought I'd see the day
wow and it's only been like
grats
Yeah, good job!
Pretty cool idea
I gave the Lhizahrd suggestion a star without even looking at the doc, I just want the Lhizahrds to be more important
cuz it's a cool idea but not made well
Lhizahrd needs more stuff
The only reason I ever go there is to farm ancient power cores and first time there
But in calamity I don’t even need to farm there
So if it had a full expansion that made t viable to return to the temple (or the jungle as a whole)
That would be very cool
Is this suggestion good?
Cosmic void armor
Concept art, similar to xeroc armor, inspired by Kirby Star Allies’ final boss
About 100 defense (xeroc scaled to bloodflare tier)
All stats up (damage, crit chance, movement speed, hp and mana, max minions)
All attacks have a chance to inflict godslayer inferno, and you gain xeroc rage and wrath upon taking damage, plus all or most xeroc armor special attack effects
Immunity to lava some debuffs, now including godslayer inferno (like xeroc armor)
Crafting: xeroc armor + ruinous souls + 1 sentinel material type per piece.
Reason: there is no non-class specific armor at the uelibloom-bloodflare tier, this would fill that niche with an armor less focused on special effects and more focused on stats. Also, it might be good to add another upgrade to this armor when the xeroc superboss is added to replace the role of the current demonshade armor.
So xeroc armor
As a tier 2 for it
Meaning the boss would have stuff to make the final tier
...
I like that idea a lot
Something like that
Basically a xeroc armor upgrade, plus maybe another similar one later. The next similar one would replace the role of the current demonshade armor
I see
@ashen warren Most of those suggestions aren't resprites
yeaaah you are kind of right, the resprite only concern the uelibloom bricks and the astral ore, the rest just stuff to add 😛
I'd rewrite that opening sentence, then.
Amalgamated brain is powerful enough to be locked postWoF
Like cmon, class badge except it is for anyone and also has useless nifty onhit effects?
Oh my fuck that Lizarhd expansion doc
Fab plz
Laptop
Displays everything
Press (key) to open a UI to toggle events
Made from 1 cell phone + 7 potions of omniscience + 1 blood relic + 1 goblin battle standard + 1 pirate map + 1 arid artifact + 1 sandstorm’s core + 1 naughty present + 1 pumpkin moon medallion + 1 solar tablet + 50 martian conduit playing + 50 nanites + 1 torrential tear + 1 cosmolight + 1 defiled rune + 1 death + 1 armageddon + 1 core of calamity at a hardmode anvil
Basically, it works like cell phone but has a UI to toggle all the component effects. This includes a mirror option to warp home and a martian option (there isn’t a direct summon, hence the conduit plating and nanites). Also grants potion of omniscience effects.
Deities’ Arcanum
Grants supreme knowledge and control over world events
Press (key) to toggle UI
Made from 1 laptop + 1 astral arcanum + 20 cosmilite bars + 20 phantoplasm + 20 nightmare fuel + 20 endothermic energy at a Draedon’s forge
It’s laptop but with an option in its UI to open acranum’s teleportation UI.
Xeroc’s Heart
This relic emits an indescribable aura
Grants ultimate power over the world
Made from 1 deities’ arcanum + 1 terminus + 15 darksun fragments + 5 cinderplate + 10 exodium clusters at a demon altar
It’s a permanent consumable that grants the option to toggle Deities’ UI with the option to start boss rush added. Also gives permanent debuff immunity equivalent to Silva’s.
Essentially just ultimate event starters and info displayers. None of these work while a boss is alive.
whoever starred this wrong channel lol
feedback?

300 iq crab in business
why the permanent debuff immunity?
I liked everything about it up to that point 'lectro
I was second, just saying 
Btw don't forget to submit them one by one or put in a doc
ye i will
do you think it has literally any chance of getting in if it gets 50 stars
I mean average % of suggestions getting in is like, uh, 0.01%
That excluding 50 stars gate but you could see how slim it is still
Btw Crab do you do forwarding suggestions to devs or nah
As in suggestions with 50+ stars
I don't, no access to dev server
All I can is initially starring suggestions and roasting bad ones
I imagine only ... uh, devs have access to the dev server 
Alright but can't we all shit on bad suggestions though
and maybe some admins/mods here


Shadowspec suggestions 
shadowspec gun
pre-hardmode gun
shoots bullets that kill things
crafted with shadowspec
shadowspec recipe
1 dirt
how is suggest
perfect
thank
you'll get a million stars in no time
actually you should add one stone, so it's not TOO op of a recipe
300 iq idea 
you're right




you're right that's not funny, that's just sad
Five completely unrelated ideas:
- Cosmic Hamaxe, a hamaxe made from cosmilite that’s similar to blossom pickaxe in terms of speed
- Make it so Enchanted Metal can be converted into 4 of any pre-hm ore bar (copper, gold, etc) at a crystal ball
- Void Diving Suit, made from abyssal diving suit + lumenous amulet + voidstone + ruinous souls + nanites
- Make it so one of the crag houses always has an ashen altar, and give brimmy a low chance to drop pieces of ashen/ancient furniture (she can drop multiple, like DS/AS and fishing stuff) to reduce the clusterfuck that it the ashen/ancient system right now
- I know pacifist things are kinda pointless, but make it so throwing enough love potions at brimmy after surviving a certain amount of time pacifies her, allowing her to move in and sell her drops and some other stuff

I'm down for a Brimmy NPC.
@obsidian berry There are mods that do that?
which ones?
calamity does it as well any mod that gives you starting stuff if there is too many of those the starting garbage slowly overwrites the basic beginnings
how many mods are you using jfc

the only one I know that does that is Antiaris
thorium gives you 2 items
but you still get a wooden pick and axe
wha
Huh.
SEE WHAT I MEAN?
why is thorium stuff pushed over 
the thorium stuff always spawned in the bottom left corner of my inventory
I DONT KNOW
o.o
it’s basically asking for issues
but i want my game to be balls to the wall
Just use cheat sheet to get a copper pick
^
and axe
i dont use that one
You can disable it right after
get it
i dont trust myself around that amount of power
Again, you can disable it right away
I mean, it isn't but yer
again issues like this could be fixed with an extra starting pick from the starting bag
if you want to be able to go into deep shit with mods, get cheat sheet
true true
you will eventually need it
but STILL if the starting bag gives extra magic bows and a bunch of other stuff....
It only does that because you don't normally start with a bow or a staff
Starter bag is fine how it is smh
It allows you to choose a class at the start of the game and not have that weirdness at the beginning
an anvil
yeah but you have to get all that before you can make your wulfrum gear
It can even be bought at merchant
68 stars
I think I peaked early
And calamity dumps money all over you
I guess that's true
dunno. i don't disagree with you though, the starter bag is basically perfect
tbh I’d add cosmolight
it’s irritating af having to just wait for the first few nights
Wait for what?
Early-game boss summons are cheapo
And cosmo doesn't trigger any events
Sure.... brimstone elemental as npc...
Bloodmoon and whatnot
brimstone elemental as an NPC would pretty cool but the rose stone exists
Tho, I wonder how will brimstone elemental fit in the housings.
She is like around 4 times the size of an npc
she’ll become chibii brimmy 
~~just give us a pacifist route for calamity
~~

i dont like how the starting bag comes with the slime crown tbh

I mean, easy slime hook tbh
ye
we need the brimestone waifu elemental as a npc
this is true
30-ish rope + any ranged wep = slime stuff
collecting all the waifus was an amazing achievment for me
You can even turn on arma
Just.. make sure you are not on the rope first when king slime spawns
this is also true
How do you get brimmy drops then?
Does she sell it?
Feel like selling her stuff after prime would make sense
Or you could still fight her anw prob
Are the lance and lihzahrd thing gonna get sent? Neither have the check
They'll get around to it.
add a copper pickaxe to starter bag just to fuck with people

add Ark of the Cosmos to starter bag for the hell of it
no, halibut cannon
maybe we should make an upgrade to the shreader
that when it has speed up it can crash the game
Profaned Flameburster
Ranged flamethrower weapon
Drops from Profaned Guardians
Bursts line of the holy flame projectiles. It's doesn't pierce, ignore immunity frames and have more range, that Elemental Eruption.
:
Providence's defense makes Elemental Eruption on these boss a useless, which forces to use post-Golem flamethrowers. Post-ML weapon, was can't damage second post-ML boss. 
Also gap between post-ML and post-DoG flamethrower don't filled, which cause sucking of these ranged subclass in DoG battle. Please, give to flamethrower users more viable option for Sentinels and DoG, that weak on high-defensive enemies a Eruption.
oooh i like it
I'm calculate, was elemental eruption's damage fully eated by Provi defense...
28 base damage vs. 75 damage reduction...
oof
Edited.
More, that 75 base damage on EE can be achieved only with glass cannon build and adrenaline and rage scumming.
Why would we need morphs?
@pure dove Problem with those in specific is that there are already mounts with identical effects and methods of obtaining
Gotta think of something more original to use as examples
Crabulon or Signus could be interesting if custom attacks are allowed, or even Astrum Aureus (which would replace the Jelly Bean probably)
yeah, I just used those as examples, I couldn't really think of anything atm
that's why I asked if anyone had some ideas
Earth Elemental morph item
I want to ride my floating rock in fully decked out armor
You won't ride the floating rock
You'll be the floating rock
imagine being an absolute unit of a rock.
imagine a DoG morph?
would be cool to be cryogen ❄
maybe a DoG morph, but like, maybe the size of a DoT
or..... a bush morph
you turn into a bush
But why
But then I'd die a few days ago
because why not
skull trooper morph
the bush morph has a TON of op abilities
*sans trooper morph
The more I visit here the more respect and utter pity I have for sors
you walk at 1.0x speed
look like a bush
you can use items while a bush
weapons will stick out of the bush while using them
So the same as normal but you look like a bush?
Sas Undretael?
yes @wind flicker
A box morph
I would prefer if that had erm
proper capitalization, jasoon
looks kinda low effort without it
They're pretty fun
The only morph in thorium that i was interested in was the one that shrank you to 1x1 or whatever it was
I never used morphs anyway because slime mount op but that was the only one that was worth my time
The frog one
Checked wiki
I usually just use the unicorn mount for bosses and movement, otherwise it's the jellybean all the way.
Who wouldn't use slime until jellybean?
It's strong for just about every fight
I mean, I could? I've never found it that appealing
you asked for it to have capitalization... I wonder who is gonna get triggered from that
Capitalization = Quality
That's how most people read it
Also it means effort
That's a lotta effort to try and "trigger" someone. And you're no Ben Shapiro
but look how I put the capitalization...
Yes, it's mildly frustrating at best. Congratulations. Libtards destroyed. Woooooooo.
there, I put it back
This Typing Style Is Pretty Bad But Not "Triggering" Besides That's A Dead Meme
Triggered epic style 😎
Good thing I'm ben shapiro
Thank you Jasoon

Pinging fabsol wasnt really necessary
pinging Fab



How about we just ping Fab for every single suggestion
i'm not sure about that one chief
thats pretty epic
Also you can already do that by enabling notifications in #mod-downloads and #changelogs
i pinged him cuz i knew he was the guy who handled everything with the changelog
Fabsol is the owner of the server
and the owner of the mod
I wonder why i see literally no one pinging fabsol when they make a suggestion
Well he was under the impression that Fab was the "changelog guy", so he pinged due to having a changelog-based suggestion
He was wrong but that was his reasoning
i edited fabsols name out of the suggestion
and if your reading this fabsol, im sorry
@tulip parcel

wha
Well you gotta do something to grab the attention amirite?

@left crag Late on this but did you mean to say "Non-consumable" in your Skeleton Key suggestion?
Yeah don't
It feels vaguely offensive despite not actually being directly offensive.

You prolly shouldnt
jeez this cat, i can't even roll my tongue
we should have :ech: instead
I'd even say you should delete that image from this channel
deleted
apologies
It’s okay just don’t do it again friendo
@oblique mountain already a thing dummy. its called notification overrides where you can change notifications for certain channels
So if you want to be pinged everytime someone says something in general (bless your soul) you can do that

Ech
I have notifs for the announcements category enabled 
does Terraria or the Calamity mod have orbitals of any kind yet?
Orbitals?
I mean as a weapon for the terrarian, sorry, I should've specified.
There's the Polterghast Mines from the summoner Bloodflare armor
Otherwise, I don't recall any other orbiting stuff
but the mines are seemingly an effect of the armor, not directly a weapon, right?
they largely just circle around you looking cool
still I'd say they count as orbiting stuff
Feel free to suggest any orbity flingy weapon stuff
but minions mostly do their thing and you can't really control them, or can you? (I'm not the sharpest knife in the block, I may have forgotten)
you can right click to make them target things
it has ... questionable results at times
You can repeatedly spawn them too
I'd consider minions weapons, although they're a bit unusual
In terms of usage
Weapons are pretty much things that do damage
ah drat. basically, I got the idea of implementing orbitals as a weapon class for the player's weapon slot, and they could have a passive and an active state. passive would be when you're not pressing the attack button, and in this state the orbital would function like a flying shield that can either block certain attacks entirely or just soak up some degree of the damage. in the active state (actually attacking) the orbital will fly in whatever direction you attack towards, like a projectile, and deal a constant stream of damage, but in exchange you'd be largely helpless and unprotected as you have no weapon at hand. it'd bring a little strategy to the mod, and give bosses like Astrum Deus fun new unique drops. (sorry for the wall of text)
nice
nice

@kind parcel Maybe doesn't have to be an entire class, having something like that as a magic weapon or accessory would be pretty cool
Would be an interesting thing to use
you're right. besides, most orbitals would either be the same or be too broken or even too much like other already existing things. it's settled then: Astrum Deus gets an unique drop. (I don't really remember other bosses with orbitals of their own besides Calamitas)
Yeah, I think it's just the two of them
Polter?
Oh, right 
@kind parcel You should make it more specific that it's a summon weapon, not a mage one, as you say it's a 'magic weapon'
well, you don't really summon anything, since it's already around you so long as you have the weapon selected. (shite I'm bad at explaining this)
What type of damage does it deal?
"Magic" or "Summon"?
Your first line says Magic
but you also say Astrum Deus has no Summoner drops, implying this is a Summon weapon which fixes that
see, the joke here is I can't tell the bloody difference, so I suppose it's up to Fabsol. both use mana, both could be used to describe the nature of the weapon in question, both are a bit unique in their own way. it's really difficult and I'm really confused.
Just make it a summon weapon, that way your comment about dropping something for summoners makes sense
Magic is pew pew no bullet. Summon is WHOOSH- now you have a slime fighting for you
would a remote control saw blade theoretically count as a summon, despite it being an inanimate object and not a living being?
Yes.
Much like any other summon weapon that does the same.
I mean, the deadly spheres are just metal bols so
Summon weapons don't have some sort of strict theming or regulation to them.
They just summon things that attack of their own volition. That's all.
also, it's already there the moment the weapon is equipped, and is not "summoned" by the attack.
But the weapon still summons something
by equipping it, yes. so it's certainly a summon weapon?
Yes, and you wanted summoner things for Astrum Deus, a magic weapon is not for summoners
alright, I'll quickly edit it. thanks for the help and sorry for the tomfoolery, I'm really literal when it comes to these kinds of things.
But if you're that literal, wouldn't you call it a summon weapon because it summons things?
well, I take "summon" REALLY literal, as in the thing that appears is a living, breathing lifeform, and it is only summoned by attacking. my logic might be flawed there though.
It certainly is.
A summoner weapon's requirements are never that strict.
well, that's the fun thing about mistakes right? you can learn from them. so thank you for your help!
Aye aye.
Lihzahrd expansion reached 100 stars
Man I know that means nothing effectively but I’m still proud of it
It deserves that man.
Thank you! 😊
I have never seen such a well-prepared and thought out suggestion
I don't think it'd be THAT hard to code
it's also been sent to the dev chat... 12 times...?
...something's wrong here. can anyone add the checkmark, or only certain people?
Someone has to add the initial check mark
And only devs do that
After that anyone can react to that
It won’t do anything though
ah, got it.
People with cool dudes role can also add stars
@hollow shell yes that’s what I meant, I’ll change it right away
Goodie
Just ping me again once it is edited
Ballos's Staff
Summons projection of great priest to fight for you
Legendary summon weapon, drops from Providence with 1% chance.
If SCal has been defeated, it's have 25x higher damage.
Takes all possible minion slots.
Apperiance: see picture.
Patterns:
- Shoot a bone barrages, which ignores immunity frames and gravity.
- Casts a lighting bolts, which have a chance to instantly kill normal enemies and critically hit bosses.
- Hides in a cloak, summon eyes, which shoots a laser barrages to enemies.
- Drops to surface with tremendous damage from a hitwave.
- Dashes to bosses, simular to Yharon son's.
: Calamity doesn't have summon weapon in legendary equipment's tier. Also mod are lack's of complex minions.
Are good?
would this be clone tier or scal tier?
When were you warned again?
Why?
I'm asking when, not why.
When? Don't know.
Because the last logged instance of you receiving a warn is at 1/8/18

@ruby cobalt aaand?
It should've been removed long ago.
W8.
If the suggestion is sent to the dev server, can I repost?
After a long time has past?
Yes, you can.
You can?
Then it receives a blue checkmark and nothing ever is done about it.
Thought it was disallowed-ah
It'll just be marked with ☑
So you can, it’s just kind of ignored
Pretty much
¯_(ツ)_/¯
Anyway @earnest raptor while I think the idea is good to have a complex multi-attack minion there’s several issues I have with it
First, why does this drop from two bosses
Even if the second drop is an upgrade, you’re putting this on par with legendary items
Despite no significant change
If you want an item like that suggest an exo weapon
Second, why Ballos? Cave Story is cool, yeah, but you can do more with this than “summons ballos”
If I were writing a cave story minion weapon I would have it summon balrog and misery
Ballos isn’t a minion; they, functionally, are
You could even have it be the demon crown
Ballos fits with Calamity's athosphere; and also, it's a Ballos shadow.
Not a real priest.
why not make it summon one of Ballos' eye rocks, from the last phase of his battle?
Well, clone already drops a really good summon weapon already
Idk how well this would fit in progression
Okay, Provi...
Energy Staff 
Technically Moon Lord 🤔
It's sentry

Energy staff isn't enough to make summoner good for Prov
It still sucks
Another exo gun suggestion 

lel hecc

Why Ballos? Ballos seems a good character, when it's hypothecally arrives to Calamity world: poweful apocalyptic wizard, which burns homeland to ash. It servants (Misery and Balrog) also symbolic and cool, but not enough for legendary weapon.
HEy, they made Xeroc a throwing based set
Time to design an all class armor for that teir to replace it
Elemental Armor 👀
I like where this is going
@shadow prism I don't think that adding more methods of obtaining them will make them less of a clusterfuck
yeah but it adds another way to get them
how should the system be fixed
Why do you need more ways to get them?
That's their problem currently
ye
It can be fixed by removing the cross-crafting aspect entirely
Just make them separate sets
yeah
and then maybe keep ancient > ashen with furniture + x and leave it
rather than all this other crap
"all this other" as in
ashen > ancient
You've got half of the problem resolved
(Unless you wanna remove all the separate Ashen recipes, making them only obtainable by repairing Ancients?)
I just realized, with the rework of Xeroc into the throwing set, my Profaned Armor suggestion has a fair shot of getting put in. 
@inner rover Are they not usable?
wot
You know you can just... retoggle its visability right?
@inner rover
Thats all thats being toggled when you remove a pet buff, the visability of the slot
I’d make the visibility toggle the speed effect with the slowing outside of water and faster speed in water but not the other effects like emitting light from the luminous amulet and whatever other good effects there are
nah then you’d have out of water 30% DR
its sole purpose is exploring the abyss post polter
30% dr?
Abyssal diving plates only give 15% dr as of now
blame Diamenciory for nerfs
Moth in a bottle
A simple item made from Solar Table fragments(8) and maybe(2 luminite?) at an Ancient Manipulator.
Consumable item used to summon Mothron during an eclipse. spawns a normal one before DoG defeated, spawns buffed up one after.
Reason: As of right now i have yet to find a mod that adds a summoning item for Mothron, there are summons for lots of other minibosses, such as Betsy's egg from Fargo's.
but theres none for Mothrons. Also ive noticed that for the people who really like to get a lot of items late game they need a lot of Darksun Fragments at end-game but Mothrons spawnrate is shit. (like 3 mothrons most time during 1 eclipse(at least for me))
in this way you can farm darksun fragments pretty easily
thoughts?
Weren't plates nerfed to 20 instead of 15?
Let me rephrase my previous idea: visibility toggles most but not all of the effects of the abyssal diving suit so that it’s slightly better than just the abyssal diving suit when not in the abyss or underwater. Maybe make some of the effects work in all water instead of just the abyss, or make them slowly fade out when you leave water
I found the toggle for the extra slots! Wee
Now to edit out the issue with the visibility
@unique vector here's the thing - special role = potential bullying
yea yea, you're a patron, sure thing
but no, that's Fabsol's argument against it
theres a lot of servers that have patron roles, if someone bullies just remove it and warn
eh, if he says no thats fine
i didnt know why it wasnt a thing is all
¯_(ツ)_/¯
lemme delet
Tbh patrons should get special roles, I can just nuke people who bully you because you donated money.
I'll probably bring it up next time Fab's on (if I'm on too), maybe something will be worked out.
give bullies the "omega biff" treatment
hahaues
when are we doing a coop run
when you find bullies to give the biff treatment to
no
I wanted to rope LompL into playing IWBTC with me
but nothing ever came out of it
IWBTC?
all i know of is IWBTB because i completed it on the highest difficulty
eeyup
replace g with p
If patrons get special roles I want my role to be grey
That way I can pretend I don’t exist on this server

or make it match perfectly with discord dark theme background 
@pure dove isnt that a feature?
idk, but if there's an accessory that doesn't look good and you want to hide it, you can't without it not working
actually, I think it's the toggleable ability that doesn't work
like, press N to toggle ____
The visibility-to-make-the-shit-not-work is a feature
(some people have suggested binding it to a hotkey instead of visibility)
Having it on a hotkey would be nice
Would it be a terrible idea to have "Upgraded" versions of boss summons so it'd spawn boss rush versions of bosses for late game?
I've been thinking about suggesting it
for what purpose?
I feel like it'd be a good idea to be able to fight the Boss Rush versions of bosses individually
for practice
only thing i could think of is dps testing on a more mobile dummy
Practicing their boss rush versions, also they could drop multiple treasure bags to help with grinding
But there's probably a more streamlined way to do it than alternates of all of the boss summons
Like, an activatable item post-SCal
Just to fight for end-game or practice
Not sure if they should drop anything though
since well, what's to drop at that point? lol
fair enough, maybe at least potions just so they drop something
Yeah we already have Armageddon for dropping multiple treasure bags
unless it's like a post prov case and they drop auric cells or something
Fab has said he hates spreading biomes
Sure, I have nothing against that
But by this biome's very concept, there is zero reason it shouldn't spread. You would think the Astral Infection would, you know, infect the world over time.
It's literally called an infection, plus you can buy the solution, realistically it should spread.
fuck
I agree with you guys
But afaik Fab just hates spreading biomes so it's not gonna happen
when do we get ❎
So I just wrote it out, what do you guys think?
Post-Boss Rush Summons
After Boss Rush is completed, "upgraded" summons for all bosses can be crafted to summon Boss Rush versions of said Boss.
They can either be obtained at Dradeon's Forge for free after Boss Rush, or crafted using [X Boss Summon + 1 Calamitous Essence]
Like in Boss Rush, these summons can be used anywhere since there's no biome restriction.
Since Wall of Flesh is the exception, using that upgraded summon could teleport you to the Underworld.
: This could be a nice addition to the late game to either practice specific bosses for Boss Rush, Test damage for end game weapons, or just to fight tougher versions of your favorite boss.
Kinda defeats the "practice" point if you have it after the Boss Rush
and recipe might be better as boss summon + 1 calamitous essence
^
^^
I see, then perhaps it could be just avaliable after Yharon or SCal?
Cower, fools! Merasmus is here! I was thinking instead of shooting out grenades, it just summons grenades out of the air around you and then shoots them about
that is sort of what it does in game anyways
and even dynamite
Actually I really like the idea of a buffed Boss Rush
It could have you face off against the bosses of the difficulty above yours (Expert Mode AI in Normal Mode as an example), and if you took it on when on Death Mode, it would put you through a pseudo-5th difficulty (maybe reference Kirby with recolored "EX" bosses?) where the difficulty goes to levels considered too much by normal people
But if you're willing to put yourself through that you're probably not normal anyway
Fixed it up a bit, how's it look now?
Calamitous Boss Upgrades
After Supreme Calamitas is defeated, "upgraded" summons for all bosses can be crafted to summon End Game versions of said boss.
Stats of all bosses will be the same as Boss Rush.
They can be crafted at Dradeon's Forge using [X Boss Summon + 1 Calamitous Essence].
Like in Boss Rush, these summons can be used anywhere with no biome restriction.
Since Wall of Flesh is the exception, using that upgraded summon could teleport you to the Underworld.
: This could be a nice addition to the late game to either practice specific bosses for Boss Rush, Test damage for end game weapons and armors, or just to fight tougher versions of your favorite boss.
or there could also be summons for multiple bosses at the same time that are buffed like the draedons remote,
there could be a cursed looking food and it can summon EoC, EoW, and Skeletron
All sounds good to me 👍
All bosses at once 
So Fargo's 
@sacred thorn that’s the exact opposite of how black holes work, so I’d say this specifically is a terrible idea
Rename it to white hole
I have a crazy dumb idea
What if selecting "save and quit" while the Wall of Flesh is alive gave you a jumpscare
or spawn it spawns in a DoG
what if it prints out an image of a blue screen of death
@sacred thorn I have a suggestion that builds off of and modifies the suggestion you made about the calamity devs adding a throwing pillar because the concept behind it sounds interesting, but at the same time a bit off slightly from the theme of the pillars: instead of the "blackhole pillar" it could be revised to say "Nova pillar" which would better relate to the far-off space feel of the lunar event, and to fit this you could take your idea for the miniboss to one that occasionally has medium-range AoE attack that looks like a supernova (animated, and still related to your original idea as a supernova can result in a black hole). Speaking of black holes I think building off of the black hole idea, another good suggestion could be an occasional black hole that results from the AoE attack that sucks the player towards it and deals 2-5 armor piercing damage per ticket for 3 seconds unless the rod of discord is used. I think this suggestion could incorporate features of a "blackhole-type" pillar while still maintaining the feel of the original four lunar-event pillars.
---just noticed how long the thing I typed ended up being. Oof
Nova pillar is a tremor thing
I thought my idea for a name sounded familiar
But there are other celestial bodies to use
tremor
Also I typed "per ticket damage" when I meant to type "per tick"
nah
Red giant, neutron star, wormhole,
what we truly need is exo beenades
...yes
gamma-ray
Er.... i might have to keep thinking
Wait......
If xeroc is being moved to throwing class......
What about......
Xeroc pillar
sorry but has nothing to do with space iirc
Yeah but why not?
with a pillar it may be better to just make it space-themed instead of just his name
Asteroid fragment?
Nop
Cosmic Pillar
Meteoric fragment?
And the tooltip would be "what? An actual meteor is way bigger!"
Meteors are already a thing
Or maybe Comet Fragment
I think Comet is probably good
Or cosmic
Since comets fly and shit
Cosmic Fragment
Moon pillar
Moon Lord already exists
or whast about blackhole pillar like i first came up with
A blackhole is more a cosmic anomaly than a celestial body
isnt a vortex that too?
True
you have a suggestion mecha?
Divine Statis Set
Crafted with the following materials at Draedon's Forge:
Statis Armor with summoner helmet
Stardust Armor
All 4 gel types
Stardust
Souls of Light
Souls of Night
Darksun Fragments
Divine Statis Mask
Summons a Slime God Core but with 4 spirals, each color representing a spreading biome. Flies fast enough to reliably stick to Yharon and inflicts distortion. Ignores i-frames
Summons benefit from crit chance by getting a damage boost scaling with crit chance, 2crit:1damage.
Divine Statis Chainmail
Summons 4 Slime Gods, 1 for each spread biome. Slime Gods are about the size of the player. AI is a faster SG. Ignores i-frames.
Crimulean Slime God inflicts Ichor
Corrupted Slime God inflicts Cursed Flames
Hollowed Slime God inflicts Holy Flames
Astral Slime God inflicts Godslayer Inferno
Divine Statis Leggings
All Summons now attach a mini-slime to enemies, acting like a stronger Stardust Cell Staff.
Set Bonus:
Every 15 seconds, spawn an orbiting slime that blocks a projectile. Can spawn up to 4 orbiting slimes
Rev+ Summoner penalty is reversed. Summons always deal full damage and other class weapons deal 30% damage.
4 gel types?
Gel, Purified Gel, Pink Gel, Blighted Gel
ohhh
i like it
except change the 15 seconds to like 30 or even 60 seconds
15 seems too op
Probably need to add that it only blocks 1 projectile. It gets hit, then it despawns. Also needs to collide with said projectile.
Besides, numbers would not be up to me
true
i just realized that in order to fit with the whole calamity theme we could make a astral pillar for throwing
Uh idk
actually nvm
That could be a neat idea but weird to execute
plus, where would the extra pillar go?
besides its like adding a corruption or crimson pillar
You could have an optional pillar that can be summoned in during the lunar event that spawns at your current location, but that may inconvenient.
PIllars float into space if you wait too long
That would mean you need to get the astral one ASAP
really? iirc they sank down into the ground
^
"The longer the time taken to defeat a Pillar, the deeper it will sink into the ground, but very slowly." my bad
