hollow shell
#

Cuz a lot of people want OST-exclusive tracks to play in-game to somehow "validate" them

#

even though they're still part of the official OST

lost agate
#

The ! Is not a dislike button or anything similar

hollow shell
#

It's fine for tracks to be on the soundtrack only 😤

lost agate
#

Its literally meant to be deleted

gloomy hazel
#

Oh...

radiant meadow
#

people use it like it is though

#

and it pisses me off

lost agate
#

If ya would just read the pins

radiant meadow
#

also, Sors, just remove the stars instead of adding the ❕ back if it's an issue

ashen warren
#

Should I remove the suggestion?

hollow shell
#

I don't use it as a dislike button as much as a "I think this needs editing" button
like, it may break the rules or isn't elaborated on enough

#

and yeah

gloomy hazel
#

So the "!" reaction is supposed to be some kind of warning towards the suggestion if it breaks a rule for example?

lost agate
#

No

#

Read the pins

#

Its there

radiant meadow
#

It's automatically put on every suggestion

gloomy hazel
#

I've read the pin

#

I'm telling what I understood from it

distant gyro
#

"This suggestion hasn't been reviewed by a moderator yet. The suggestion's star is subject to removal if it breaks any rules or for other reasons. Once reviewed, this gets removed."

hollow shell
#

It's automatic

#

yeah

opal barn
#

the exclamation point gets removed when it's sure the suggestion doesn't break rules

distant gyro
#

so if it breaks the rules then it gets deleted iirc

radiant meadow
#

If a suggestion breaks rules, its stars should just be removed

hollow shell
#

Legend edited

gloomy hazel
#

Alright then, so if it's as long as the "!" exists in the suggestion, it has a chance of removing the star reactions

#

depending of the mods' choice

hollow shell
#

yes

lost agate
#

I could very well pin a message that says not to react to it but would that matter? Pretty sure it would still happen

gloomy hazel
#

for once that I get it right!

radiant meadow
#

I've been thinking about pinning the message but like people reading the pins is a rare occurence

lost agate
#

Remember ew/why?

distant gyro
#

oh noes the ew emote replacement for why

hollow shell
#

It's not a big issue at all
using the exclamation as a dislike button

lost agate
#

Like 3 people in a row used ew as if it was still why

hollow shell
#

No need to make a big thing out of telling people not to do it

placid moth
#

To be fair, it's better to get reactions from the public on the suggestion

radiant meadow
#

then you verbalize it in here?

lost agate
#

^

placid moth
#

That's fair, I guess.

gloomy hazel
#

I had to admit though that my suggestion got halfway from the goal in less than 20 hours, even if it (unintentionally) doesn't respect the 7th rule of "don't"s.

#

Or maybe it does respect it, since it was said that Calamitas will be a NPC but that nothing said she'd be a town-NPC (at least from what I know).

smoky wagon
#

I thought there was plans to make her an npc already

placid girder
#

@ashen warren both being worked on actually

ashen warren
#

ohhh... That is cool

#

thanks for letting me know @placid girder

hollow shell
#

wife

Que?

lost agate
#

@ashen warren yharim beat lorde ... What

#

Lorde was a joke

#

It was removed not cuz some magic lore or something

ashen warren
#

"He engaged with EXE a second time, without assistance, and demolished him." It is on fandom wiki

elder kestrel
#

Don't take the fandom wiki seriously

ashen warren
#

ohhh ok

frail mantle
#

fandom wiki sweating

elder kestrel
#

Stick to the forums/discord/gamepedia wiki

#

Also, scal isn't his wife

frail mantle
#

the official lore is on the Gamepedia Wiki

ashen warren
#

I feel... lied right now

hollow shell
#

That Fandom wiki is from some weird RP thing that some people are doing

#

and decided to make a wiki on for some god forsaken reason

terse heart
#

Huh

#

Weird

ashen warren
#

@terse heart same

#

then the next time, when I feel like knowing more, I'll just ask here

#

or see the gameopedia

#

gamepedia*

frail mantle
#

thonk is this a meme suggestion

ashen warren
#

Who are you referring to?

frail mantle
#

you

ashen warren
#

No, it's just a fun little play-on-words.

radiant meadow
#

I don't know how easy something like that would be to code

ashen warren
#

It's a suggestion, so you don't have to.

#

But if you do, that would be pretty cool.

frosty vortex
#

Seasonal name changes and small resprites would be pretty cool/fun but Calamity generally tries to be really uptight/serious with its bosses so it'd never happen

ashen warren
#

The Lorde

frosty vortex
#

is now gone

ashen warren
#

He still existed

gloomy hazel
#

It's been removed

frosty vortex
#

He's gone because he was a meme

ashen warren
#

Yeah I know

#

Lul was never removed.

frosty vortex
#

That's an item not a boss

ashen warren
#

Still a meme

teal ibex
#

it's also a meme in reference to totalbiscuit so

frosty vortex
#

Also, hence why I said Calamity's bosses are serious

teal ibex
#

it has more grounding than any others

ashen warren
#

It's still a fun little idea. Not everything has to be serious.

frosty vortex
#

Even Crabulon's meme-y lore got scrapped (the worst change this mod has ever had imo)

ashen warren
#

There was also Devourer of Thots which I'm sad that they changed the name of.

gloomy hazel
#

what?

frosty vortex
#

That was also unfortunate

gloomy hazel
#

I had never heard of the "Devourer of Thots" myself

ashen warren
#

It was the old name for the Cosmic Guardians.

bold spruce
#

The 2nd-gen name

#

Because the first one was "Another Worm Boss"

ashen warren
#

Okay, it seems like some bosses still have some memes attached to them.

teal ibex
#

that namechange was not even remotely unfortunate lol

bold spruce
#

At least it sounds professional now

ashen warren
#

If you look in the trivia section of Devourer of Gods, you'll find some stupid stuff in there.

teal ibex
#

it was a complete juxtaposition of the tone they were going for in the fight

#

i'm surprised it wasn't removed sooner tbh

ashen warren
#

I still think my idea was pretty decent. It might not make it, but eh.

frosty vortex
#

It's obvious why they changed it but I found the juxtaposition entertaining

gusty geode
#

This mod could use some holiday-exclusive content tbh

ashen warren
#

And what better way than to make a boss a play-on-words.

distant gyro
#

Adding custom chests to worldgen is hard iirc

arctic tapir
#

Aw

#

Maybe in the middle of the sea prism spheres?

distant gyro
#

If it has to be one it would be like a shadow chest or something

ashen warren
#

I like the mimic idea.

arctic tapir
#

Because that’s a set structure

radiant meadow
#

it'll make the sunken sea seem more like the aquatic depths

#

which isn't really a good thing

fresh harbor
#

Maybe it could be spiced up with some destroyed castle structures? It also would signalize better that the sunken seas once were a great kingdom

gusty geode
#

Yeah, maybe a special underground cabin variant

civic pond
#

The piss sea was where draedon tossed his shit right? so it would kinda make sense you might find valuable shit lying around here and there thonk

gusty geode
#

Wrong sea but yeah

elfin maple
#

yeah

#

like some failed experiments that could be useful to you

proven tide
#

@ashen warren ono

radiant meadow
#

but why

proven tide
#

Firstly: That's a pretty low-effort suggestion, and some elaboration would be nice (regarding its effects and purpose)

#

Secondly: but why

#

you could do that

#

but why

radiant meadow
#

they want an auric demonshade combo armor

#

but like there's no purpose behind it

ashen warren
#

deleted it

proven tide
#

aight

empty geyser
#

Love the chest idea, tho Suspicious tentacle is already a thing

hearty spade
#

0.01% from bosses 🤔

#

It would take an average of 60.000 boss fights to get all of them

warm tinsel
#

I can modify the drop rates, I just felt they need to be difficult to get

#

What about 1~2%?

opal barn
#

What do they even do

warm tinsel
#

I just added to another suggestion my own spice and explained how those stones would get dropped, I don't really know

#

Let's see, what about...

#

Permanent Buffs?

#

A powerful snap and ray that can obliterate boss HP's but can hurt the player and weaken them if they use them for too long and must experience a cooldown?

#

As I said, it's someone else's suggestion, I'm not sure

#

What about Calamitas instead?

zenith hazel
#

most of the future content has already been planned out so i doubt that suggestion would be accepted

rocky geyser
#

Holy cow, more Infinity Gauntlet suggestions?

tired haven
#

I swear if it's not due to gameraiders

rocky geyser
#

Any guidelines on what to suggest and what NOT? I'm lost.

gusty geode
#

There is a suggestion don'ts doc somewhere, yes

rocky geyser
#

I found it, it's in the pinned messages.

#

And finally finished reading the doc and have to ask: What can be suggested at this point?

gusty geode
#

Everything that they don't say you can't

rocky geyser
#

So.. I can't suggest what they haven't said or written? I'm confused.

civic quail
#

Thorium has an unobtainable infinity gauntlet 🤔

rocky geyser
#

Link?

civic quail
tired haven
#

You can suggest new weapons and items at almost any point of playthrough, excluding specific points noted in doc and exo+ tier

#

They have to be at least severely original though, even if reference to something

#

putting infinity gauntlet for the 3rd time is not original

ashen warren
#

I wish i can suggest

#

But like breh...,.,.

civic quail
#

Was gonna suggest weapons but I'm going to need ideas on how it works

#

I guess I better start thinking of ideas for it now brb

rocky geyser
#

I see.

#

Just read about it, heh.

#

I am going to need a fourth arm for that. Lol

civic quail
#

Alright... I made a sword suggestion

#

Post Yharon 2nd phase

#

So there's a debuff

#

Called Galactic Wound

#

Drains 2000 HP per second

#

Supernova Crusher

What it is:
A large melee sword that shoots small crystal-like projectiles that deals a lot of damage, homes on enemies and explodes like Nebula Arcanum. A swing of a sword shoots around 10 of these crystals and when it lands on a tile/npc, it then explodes into 5 mini Nebula Arcanum but faster to explode, deals a large amount of area damage. Not autoswing.

Has chance to lower enemy defense by 80 and a really low chance to inflict Galactic Wound
If enemy defense is 0 or below your attacks inflict Galactic Wound

Crafting Suggestion:

Galactus Blade - 1
Excelsus - 1
Stellar Striker - 1
Galactica Singularity - 50
Luminite Bar - 10
Cosmilite Bar - 25
Phantoplasm - 20
Endothermic Energy - 25
Darksun Fragment - 25
Core of Calamity - 10
Yharon Soul Fragment - 5```
#

Basically like a crystal-bullet shotgun sword that explodes into mini nebula arcanums

rocky geyser
#

So like another upgrade path for Star Wrath.

civic quail
#

Yes

#

But it doesn't rain from the space

#

The sword is the space itself

rocky geyser
#

Did anyone read my document on multiple Magna Striker suggestions? Could use the feedback.

#

Not the Elemental and Exo one I posted in #suggestions-voting , a google doc I posted here in this channel.

civic quail
#

Oh

#

Nova striker and exo striker sounds really good though

#

I'm a magna striker user

rocky geyser
#

Me too!!!

civic quail
#

would be cool if it shoots rainbow

rocky geyser
#

I really like the gun but man does it need improvements.

civic quail
#

Any feedback on the sword that I'm thinking of suggesting?

#

I have a gun, summon, rogue, and staff idea for the galactic wound debuff that I thought of

rocky geyser
#

As I imagine it, sounds like a Terratomere that fill the game with more projectiles.

#

It sounds more of an aerial combat weapon than underground with the fact that Nebula Arcanums can't really go through tiles.

civic quail
#

It's like ataraxia but weaker when swung but has a lot of dps

proven tide
#

@hollow shell offtopic time I have a Bee Gun in my latest multiplayer playthrough

#

you know what this means

rocky geyser
#

I see.

civic quail
#

Sword > Swing > shoots 10 space crystals from its blade > lands on enemy > 50 mini nebula arcanum but not laggy and faster to explode

#

Or maybe 3 per space crystal projectile

rocky geyser
#

Gotcha. Because lag is really a big issue with this mod, can't have more weapons that exarcebate the problem. 😅

civic quail
#

It's a large sword so the galactic wound is going to make the enemies bleed in space-time for less than 10 seconds maybe

tired haven
#

Mini nebula arcanums as in nebula blazes or what?
Because og arcanum is pretty projectile-heavy

civic quail
#

Nebula arcanum

#

Those spiral spinning looking things

#

But less laggier

tired haven
#

Well I get it but mini ones?

#

For example og arcanum pierces about 5 times and explodes in like 20 bolts

civic quail
#

Kinda like when ataraxia hits an enemy

rocky geyser
#

One of my favorite Magna Striker upgrades that I suggested btw. From my document.

A post-Moon Lord gun and upgrade to the Magna Striker. It fires a continuous string of divine spears strikes that pierce through enemies, generate holy flames orbs on hitting enemies that float towards nearby enemies and inflict the Holy Flames debuff.

Enemies hit by this gun have a chance to drop green holy flame orbs that buff the player with the Tarra Life buff for 2 seconds each.
 
Crafted at the Ancient Manipulator with the Magna Striker, 15 units of Divine Geodes and 5 Uelibloom Bars.```
tired haven
#

ataraxia is meme in calamity programming btw

#

as in "if it wasn't patron no way it would have been done in exact way on dev intent" LULW

rocky geyser
#

707

#

I do have an idea for Storm Ruler too, I really like that sword.

civic quail
#

Yeah rip, I might have to be a patron donator to get my suggestion into the game

rocky geyser
#

Ugh...

#

If I were a donator, I'd suggest the Magna Striker to be upgraded into an Angel Arm from Trigun. LUL

arctic tapir
#

Damn I already got to 90 stars GWcorbinMonkaGIGA

gloomy hazel
#

Indeed

#

Mine's not too far from the 90 stars as well, just need a few more

zenith hazel
#

i just find it odd that the scal npc inflicts brimstone flames instead of abyssal flames, that's all

gloomy hazel
#

Oh

#

I'll change that

#

done

tranquil dune
#

My mirror is too far up in suggestions so no one will see it 😦

hollow shell
#

Exodium*

tranquil dune
#

Oops

#

Sorry autocorrect

#

Hold on let me give an idea of what the blocks might look like

atomic bolt
#

Death messages suggestions
E.g
Killed by DoG's head in Death mode:
Player was devoured.
Killed in Abyss due to drowning: Player was crushed by the pressure
Killed by a boss in Armageddon mode: Player can't survive the Armageddon.
Killed by SCal in Revengeance due to Flesh Totem: Player tried to face tank the attack.
Killed by any game mode changing items like Revengeance during a boss fight: Player tried to change the rules.

#

Do you think this would be good?

ashen warren
#

maybe

tranquil dune
#

I don’t see why it would be bad

ashen warren
#

i dunno if ive seen that suggestion before

zenith hazel
#

imagine facetanking scal LUL

ashen warren
#

its familliar

tranquil dune
#

LUL Face tanking Scal

atomic bolt
#

Any other special ways of dying?

tranquil dune
#

Rod discording in the abyss

zenith hazel
#

"<PlayerName> was killed by Jared"

tranquil dune
#

Lol

#

What if you rod of discorded in the abyss and it said “Worms surround you”

zenith hazel
#

there's only one worm tho

tranquil dune
#

When I do it it says the only 10 spawn

atomic bolt
#

Pretty RoDing in abyss doesn't kill you
It just summons an eidolon wrym to eat you

zenith hazel
#

besides you can mirror home

atomic bolt
#

I just thought about negative regeneration due to Mana Overloader

tranquil dune
#

Ok maybe if the worm kills you in the abyss with the chaos debuff it says “no rod of discording in the seas”

#

God slayer fire could say if you die to it “(player name) has been slayed but the godly flame”

proven tide
#

why is it exactly that you die twice at once in arma?

tranquil dune
#

Yarida be avoiding copyright from me be like god killer flame

zenith hazel
#

it's called god slayer inferno tho

tranquil dune
#

Then if he devoures gods then why does he say a god will never die thonk

atomic bolt
#

Hmmmmmm

zenith hazel
#

wha

tranquil dune
#

I mean a god never fears death

queen sail
#

What does that even have anything to do with godslayer inferno

zenith hazel
#

because DoG slays gods?

atomic bolt
#

Aren't we a little bit out of topic? Idk

tranquil dune
#

I know LUL

queen sail
#

@atomic bolt better one for the godslayer inferno one

#

“Player succumbed the god slaying inferno”

#

Instead of the typical “killed by” message

hollow shell
#

Flesh Totem can kill you during SCal?

zenith hazel
#

"<PlayerName>'s flesh burned off"

tranquil dune
#

That’s good

queen sail
#

@hollow shell she has a damage cap

#

If you take less than 100, the fight’s immediately over

zenith hazel
#

godmode

hollow shell
#

But there's also a minimum setter of 300 beforehand

atomic bolt
#

Flesh totem halves your damage taken

hollow shell
#

indeed

zenith hazel
#

halves contact damage

tranquil dune
#

Player has been Consumed by the God slayer fire

#

Ok I give up

#

But I think that the extra text should be added so you got my vote

queen sail
#

@atomic bolt Holy Inferno: “Player’s judgement drew nigh.”

tranquil dune
#

God that is edgy Just like calamity

#

No but really why is there so much exodium clusters

queen sail
#

Probably because they haven’t been expanded on yet

tranquil dune
#

Wait do the clusters respawn on stone blocks?

placid girder
#

No

tranquil dune
#

No they do not let me suggest a small but big thing for my suggestion

slate crown
#

you can craft them

proven tide
#

ooooof

#

from infinite resources

gloomy hazel
#

^

lost agate
#

slimes in space
That cant end well

proven tide
#

I beg to differ!

slate crown
#

astralodegodologeon slime

lost agate
#

Free falling slimes

slate crown
#

slimes falling on your head

proven tide
#

make an entire planetoid out of astral jelly

lost agate
#

No like, they dont have floor to step on

proven tide
#

double-jumping slimes

lost agate
#

They are just gonna fall and despawn

proven tide
#

swirley chunky boy with a tiny chest of lore in the middle about astraman

tranquil dune
#

Big oof for me I forgot about you could craft

proven tide
#

give ol unit a lil boi of a nod in the mod

tranquil dune
#

That is such a rip off all that for 1 Exodium

#

Make the slime or make it that you craft 3 or more at a time

zenith hazel
#

exodium is pretty much abundant

fossil owl
#

Been brainstorming some calamity invasion ideas. Can y’all share some of yours?

tranquil dune
#

But what if there is a cool block using a lot of exodium or space items

zenith hazel
#

invasions are very unlikely to be implemented

fossil owl
#

yeah, and I can see that

zenith hazel
#

i guess that's why not many people give a damn about invasion suggestions

tranquil dune
#

Like what if there was an upgrade to the meteorite armor and space gun using exodium clusters

zenith hazel
#

that'd be make it way too accessible

fossil owl
#

It’s still be interesting to know stuff like whether the goblin armies are actually building a resistance against yharim

#

or why the brimstone enemies just sit in their biome for eternity

atomic bolt
#

The first shadowflame
Pretty sure that's the thing turning humans into goblins

zenith hazel
#

yeah hell nah are they killing yharim

fossil owl
#

yeah goblins obviously wouldn’t be able to kill yharim

zenith hazel
#

so ofc, a resistance is pretty much futile

fossil owl
#

but they’d have every fucking reason to want to

atomic bolt
zenith hazel
#

^

fossil owl
#

in terms of the lore a new town NPC would be more likely than a rehashed goblin invasion where they want to steal your magical shit

#

I’d personally just want to have invasions as another method to earn viable gear later on

#

I don’t think they should be some necessary part of the gameplay

zenith hazel
#

you already have buffed events post-ml tho, what more do you want

tranquil dune
#

Most likely gear

fossil owl
#

something more than just reusing old events and giving their bosses fragments

lost agate
#

(smh theres already new enemies on those events planned)

zenith hazel
#

that's not really related to suggestions

fossil owl
#

when I beat dog I was expecting to get an upgraded horsemans blade from the pumpkings or a new tier of spooky wood armor

lost agate
#

Theres already an upgraded horseman blade

zenith hazel
#

yeah but there's god slayer armor and plenty of viable melee weapons at that point

#

and it's called baleful harvester

fossil owl
#

yeah I’m aware,

#

I was using the horsemans blade as a short example

#

but I didn’t have any clue that those events were getting an update

#

I’ll get off for now, thanks for the quick talk

civic quail
#

about the sword I was thinking of earlier

#

made the sprite too but it succ

topaz bramble
#

So I can’t be the only one that though of this, but what if we just gave the yo-yos convertable rogue variants

#

Like

#

If anything yo-yos are more throwing than melee anyways

lost agate
#

Except rogue is not throwing daryl

topaz bramble
#

Shhhhhhhh

lost agate
#

What

topaz bramble
#

Well, you get my point, right? If we can convert boomerangs into melee weapons than there really isn’t any reason why we shouldn’t be able to do the same thing with yo-yos but for rogue, especially when other mods are already doing the same thing, only it’s for throwing, not rogue

placid moth
#

Let's not do that.

lost agate
#

Theres a reason

topaz bramble
#

Really?

lost agate
#

Boomerangs suits the theme more, and also the variants may not exist for long

#

And again, its rogue not throwing so lets not use that as an excuse

#

Calamity aint gonna expand on throwing anymore

ashen warren
#

And vanilla throwing will never get rogue treatment

lost agate
#

Yeah

topaz bramble
#

Ok

#

I just think rogue yo-yos would be neat

#

That’s all lol

lost agate
#

Suggestions for the sake of being "cool" dont often end well

ashen warren
#

They will just straight up ignore it

topaz bramble
#

I mean it would also give rogue, a class that I think a lot of people feel like need more weapons, more weapons, at least until they add more

lost agate
#

Ataraxia was something that would have been "neat" but that didnt make it good

placid moth
#

Rogue has weapons

lost agate
#

@topaz bramble theres a rogue update coming

topaz bramble
#

Yeah, but it could use more

#

Oh, well that’s good

lost agate
#

It has been said a lot

topaz bramble
#

Is it the same one where the rav gets drops?

lost agate
#

No

topaz bramble
#

Sorry I’m usually on the art server

#

So I don’t really hear about updates on this server

distant gyro
#

Rav's drop is le rocky summon sentry HyperFailure

lost agate
#

Thats one of them yes

ashen warren
#

tf why here

frail mantle
#

stating on the wiki which enemies count as organic and inorganic has been suggested before

zenith hazel
#

it’s easy to differentiate tho

#

just use sounds

gloomy hazel
#

but what if there's deaf players?

terse sundial
#

Honestly, we could do that

#

It's not the most terrible idea to mention what enemies are organic and non-organic, but the only problem with that is how specific it is. The only time you need to know if an enemy is organic or not is for the RE guns

#

we could always make a table of "Affected enemies" under those RE guns with those bonuses

worthy fiber
#

I don't really remember what happened to it

terse sundial
#

Not much afaik

#

Rover mentioned the hitsound difference and that was that

tranquil dune
#

Good sprite work if only I could’ve done that to my old post

frail mantle
#

thank hahayes

tranquil dune
#

That armor could have a mage helmet too because mage has a rough start in hard mode too

frail mantle
#

mage can use Titanium Armor tho

wooden leaf
#

the helmet look ... comical

#

i thonk the eyes are weird

frail mantle
#

i do sorta have to agree tbh

#

the head was inspired by the Crystal Guardian from Hollow Knight and i just thought it'd look cool

tranquil dune
#

It is probably not what’s going to be used the sprite is most likely to put an image inside of Fabsol’s head

frail mantle
#

yea

queen delta
#

Well if the sprite is good enough, they can use that

#

They used the suggested sprite for chaos/tranquility candles

fossil torrent
#

hahayes i made those

radiant meadow
#

@cobalt rose 1. separate your suggestions into 2 messages
2. 1st phase SW also has less health and takes 3x dmg to compensate for only tail being vulnerable. (just pointing it out, not saying something is wrong)

cobalt rose
#

good to know

hollow shell
#

Bread apprentice, are you talking about only Phase 1, or both phases?

placid girder
#

i thought buffing sentinels fell in the buffing intentionally easier bosses thing

hollow shell
#

Hmmm

lost agate
#

To some extent yes

#

But i cant help but feel SW is a bit too easy

cyan lagoon
#

@fast ledge been suggested a whole lot and the answer has always been the same

#

we don't know

gusty geode
#

I believe Danny said once that there was a better chance of Healer support than Bard

queen delta
#

Why are people obsessed with Calamity-Thorium crossover

radiant meadow
#

they are two big mods

#

and people want more compatibility

gusty geode
#

Crossovers in general are awesome

queen delta
#

Is that what they mean? Just have calamity and thorium work out together? I keep reading them as calamity and thorium working together to make content based off each other

gusty geode
#

Bit of both tbh
They already function ok together, the Abyss only generates on the Dungeon side of the world to avoid breaking the Aquatic Depths
But actual cross-mod content would be awesome

It would be nice to see Thorium bosses effected by say revengeance or death mode for one

#

But idk how hard that would be to code

queen delta
#

that would be nice indeed but we probably wont get it

radiant meadow
#

Thorium might be able to do that on their end
although I don't know too much about code

warm tinsel
#

Is Draedon's fight still planned to be similar to Steven Armstrong or should I delete my suggestion?

dusty stirrup
#

He's not

#

Far from it

distant gyro
#

that Plague thing is in the don'ts doc iirc

hollow shell
#

@terse harbor See the "Suggestion Donts" document in pins
Plague biome has been frequently suggested before

terse harbor
#

Ah. Okay

void kelp
#

@ivory heart the Everglade spray exists— it applies ichor and cursed flames

ivory heart
#

@void kelp I mean a fast moving bolt, similar to an arrow
I had a bit of trouble trying to combine the two but here it is

void kelp
#

it fits that niche already

ivory heart
#

Ok

lost agate
#

Doesnt liquidificator do that?

#

Like a fast debuffing shot

void kelp
#

ultra liquidator does that too, yeah

gloomy hazel
#

Having two mods merging with each other as some sort of crossover, I wouldn't say no to that at all, but one shouldn't forget that it must be time consuming for the devs and maybe even tiring at some point due to the incompatibilities in some cases or the large amounts of bugs in general. So to the community's side, if two dev teams had to work together to merge both of their mods, patience (and supports) would be the most viable choices.

void kelp
#

and that one is much later in progression

#

merging calamity and thorium is highly unlikely specially since they’re designed to be standalone

gloomy hazel
#

standalone...ah

void kelp
#

an external party can probably try to make compatibility mods like w how some mods do that

ivory heart
#

I think he or she means to implement a few thorium weapons to Calamity

hollow shell
#

I'm pretty sure some mod exists which adds Calamity-tier bard & healer items
I don't know what mod this is (or if I'm even correct) but I am pretty sure it exists

void kelp
#

you can use singular they, that’s also grammatically correct!

#

someone out there has definitely made extra add-ons

gloomy hazel
#

I'm a he. I don't mean just weapons, I mean the two classes, the biomes, mechanisms, etc...

#

Both mods are heavy in content and have different things each, nothing is similar between Calamity and Thorium

void kelp
#

currently what I know is that the compatibility goes as far as like. sunken sea and abyss spawning on opposite sides of the world

hollow shell
ivory heart
#

Ok

hollow shell
#

for the upcoming update

gloomy hazel
#

Oh hey, btw my suggestion for Calamity as a town-NPC has got 90 stars

hollow shell
#

Nice

void kelp
#

niceeeee

gloomy hazel
#

"insert milestone achievement sound"

lost agate
#

I would be up for a crags miniboss

void kelp
#

it would be nice

hollow shell
#

Also
@slate crown
How much worse, and in what ways? If you're talkin DPS numbers it could help to add those to the suggestion

slate crown
#

it fires the projectile less

lost agate
#

Wasnt oath sword actually good

slate crown
#

and no autoswing iirc

lost agate
#

Well byeah, but how is the dmg?

slate crown
#

gonna check wiki sec

hollow shell
#

No not the literal damage

#

The DPS

gloomy hazel
#

damage per second

slate crown
#

idk

hollow shell
#

Check.

lost agate
#

Then test it

#

Did you actually suggest that because you tried it or not?

slate crown
hollow shell
#

Indeed

lost agate
#

Yes but how is the dps

#

Also, take in mind theres a debuff

slate crown
#

yea

#

but the fact that we have to check and that the stats are so close

gloomy hazel
#

Use them against a dummy if you have the dps counter equiped, and tell how high both can go from the counter

slate crown
#

doing that rn

hollow shell
#

It does look like Seashine would be better, considering it's much faster and deals around the same damage
But I've literally never used Seashine so I have no idea how good it is compared to Bladecrest

slate crown
#

the only save with dummies I have is post ml but bladecrest does 180ish and seashine does 200 and autoswings

#

so like 10% less

hollow shell
#

Alright, those are helpful numbers.

slate crown
#

yeah

terse harbor
#

I'm not supposed to put a star on my own suggestions, am I? I did and undid it because I just thought of it.

hollow shell
#

People don't like it when someone does that but it's not against the rules

tired haven
#

Well, you technically can, but it's considered bad tone

civic quail
#

lol the suggestion that I was planning to suggest, I made it into a mod

Bad Spriting though

terse harbor
#

If people dont like it and it's a bad tone then I will consider not doing it.

Cosmic Blade

What it is:
A large melee sword that shoots small crystal-like projectiles that deals a lot of damage, homes on enemies and explodes like Nebula Arcanum. A swing of a sword shoots around 5 of these crystals and when it lands on a tile/npc, it then explodes into 5 mini Nebula Arcanum but faster to explode, deals a large amount of area damage. Not autoswing.

Has chance to lower enemy defense by 80 and a really low chance to inflict Galactic Wound
If enemy defense is 0 or below your attacks inflict Galactic Wound

Crafting Suggestion:

Galactus Blade - 1
Excelsus - 1
Stellar Striker - 1
Galactica Singularity - 50
Luminite Bar - 10
Cosmilite Bar - 25
Phantoplasm - 20
Endothermic Energy - 25
Darksun Fragment - 25
Core of Calamity - 10
Yharon Soul Fragment - 5```
#

basically that's the concept, what do you guys think?

lost agate
#

why are you posting this here?

frosty kindle
#

asking for a suggestions idea

lost agate
#

yeah but like the image makes me think its a thing he already made

frosty kindle
#

he just put it in a testmod as an idea/concept of sorts ig

lost agate
arctic wren
#

not autoswing
slobbyjoy

hollow shell
#

Looks like another Ataraxia

#

Which I
can't say has a high chance of getting implemented

arctic wren
#

I mean the projectiles home
that makes it take less aiming than ataraxia if nothing else

lost agate
#

thats not the issue

#

homing or not, ataraxia is just too complex for its own good

#

and somehow all that complexity falls flat on its face

arctic wren
#

right

#

fair enough, not gonna disagree

#

feels similar to ataraxia with the humongous crafting recipe too

terse harbor
#

My concept of the Brimstone miniboss I suggested. Of course, the design can be changed if implemented into the mod in the future.

gusty geode
#

Post-Yharon shortsword with pitiful range but the most ridiculous dps in the game
Sound like a good concept?

terse harbor
#

Sounds pretty good yet OP in some senarios.

ashen warren
#

murasama? not a shortsword but still has kinda pitiful range lol

hollow shell
#

oh yeah that

zenith hazel
#

ngl, there's hardly any usage for murasama post-yharon

#

sure, you can make events easier with it but beating scal with it is insane

tired haven
#

It doesn't have that insane dps

#

Which makes using it twice as insane

zenith hazel
#

pretty odd considering it's a weapon that requires you to prove yourself worthy as a yharon killer but is heavily outclassed by yharim's crystal and other melee weapons at the same tier

hollow shell
#

(to be fair, Yharim's Crystal also requires you to prove yourself worthy as a Yharon killer)

zenith hazel
#

yeah, what i'm saying is murasama should rival yharim's crystal in a way

hollow shell
#

True

lost agate
#

well, a parry mechanic would be cool with it, seeing how its meant to be that blade from MGR

#

or at least based on it

hollow shell
#

Or allowing you to do the Demonshade Enrage

lost agate
#

that would potentilly just kill you

hollow shell
#

Very true but that's what makes it fun

lost agate
#

true melee with enrage is hella dangerous

#

with true melee i doubt it

honest isle
#

Let's get dangerous~

smoky wagon
#

bladecrest oathsword is better than seashine sword for pure dps

#

i used both in my melee playthrough

#

also hell should be explored pre dungeon

arctic wren
#

honestly

#

what I'd rather is that it have a post-eow/boc upgrade

#

or post hive/perfs

#

to give melee a better option for Life_Is_Fleeting

lost agate
#

i had an idea for a post hive/ perfs melee weapon

#

exactly for skeletron

#

but its a patreon item

smoky wagon
#

Meteor fist

lost agate
#

nah

smoky wagon
#

is good for perfs

#

but skeletron i used bladecrest

#

so yeah i think that wep is fine

arctic wren
#

the rare non post-ml patreon item

#

I mean part of it is that skeletron isn't terribly difficult

#

how long did the kill take though?

smoky wagon
#

in death mode it was like 5 minutes maybe

spark flax
#

tbh would making a suggestion to bring down the star count be reasonable?

I feel like when the star count was last raised the suggestions were getting like 20-40 stars even on downright terrible ones and i feel that was because of school break or a popularity bump or the like and the increased count was balancing that, but now it's making it kind of unreasonable

i'd probably say bring it down to like, 75 or 80

civic pond
#

the average amount i see is 50-60 stars and then they die

#

most of the time

spark flax
#

wait no nevermind

lost agate
#

i mean, if you scroll up theres already a few that have more than 90

spark flax
#

yup

#

and most of those kinda suck

#

i retract my statement

civic pond
#

do most people even scroll up though?

#

or do they just look at the bottom 3 and shoo

spark flax
#

From my experience very few people scroll up

gloomy hazel
#

About that Murasama, how about it position-locks the player right in front of the closest ennemy when you use it? Like a teleportation but it stucks the player at range of the ennemy until the player unholds the button

hollow shell
#

I think you're gettin the chronology confused
It was raised to 90 because the lowest amount was rising to 20 and 40 and such, not the other way around

#

Due to the fact that the server's member count continues to increase

civic pond
#

i guess it weeds out the worse suggestions then

#

for the best.

lost agate
#

there has been a lot of vague/under developed suggestions yeah

frosty kindle
#

not necessarily "worse", but rather decreases the amount of suggestions getting in the way of actual really good ones

civic pond
#

ok

#

i mean i see good ones kinda buried up there

lost agate
#

well thats not our problem really

#

people didnt vote for it

frosty kindle
#

as mentioned in a star count increase message, "separate the cream from the crop"

gloomy hazel
#

There's been good suggestions left forgotten

civic pond
#

not good enough HyperFailure

hollow shell
#

trust me they would've been left forgotten regardless of whether they're delivered or not smug

frosty kindle
#

tbh the yoyo suggestion i made a while ago is a little too complex to code

civic pond
#

apologies for my stupidity but i still dont understand what green checks mean..

hollow shell
civic pond
#

yes i checked the pins

hollow shell
#

o

civic pond
#

still dont get it

frosty kindle
#

basically the "sent to dev server (or other suitable place) for further checking"

civic pond
#

oh so thats where its "delivered"

hollow shell
#

When a suggestion reaches 90 stars, a dev (usually me) takes a screenshot of it and sends it into the dev server alongside a summary and some category tags
and then that person puts a check reaction on it

radiant meadow
#

server suggestions are sent to cd or mod chat

civic pond
#

ok i understand

#

thank

gloomy hazel
#

There is a Discord that is not public, that is reserved to the mods and devs. If a suggestion gets the checkmark, that means it has been added to a list of highly requested suggestions in that Discord

hollow shell
#

np

radiant meadow
#

there's no moderator discord

gloomy hazel
#

ah...

#

I thought the mods had the right to go in the devs' discord

radiant meadow
#

no, you have to be a dev sadly

gloomy hazel
#

eh...faire enough I guess

past cape
#

Yea

frosty kindle
#

it'd make the most sense, too

#

moderators don't need dev access anyways

gloomy hazel
#

I guess also that it's purposely not made to let the mods visit it in order to avoid leaks

frosty kindle
#

that, and generally it would be cluttered if we did get dev server access

radiant meadow
#

just make me a dev HyperFailure

gloomy hazel
#

Heh, do you know coding?

#

I don't

#

but do you?

#

Oh well, this is going off-topic

hollow shell
#

Only like 3 devs know how to code
the other 20 are spriters HyperFailure

radiant meadow
#

there's like 3 lorewriters and 2 testers too HDfailure

hollow shell
#

and
me

radiant meadow
#

I don't know what you do though

hollow shell
#

anyway Dovah's right this is irrelevant

frosty kindle
#

the big mans doing god's work Salute

gloomy hazel
#

I might have to ask Turquoise if he/she can give me one or two infos about the making of musics

radiant meadow
#

speaking of which

#

doesn't bladecrest shoot faster than seashine?

gloomy hazel
#

Nah

radiant meadow
#

I don't think it needs a buff

lost agate
#

me neither

hollow shell
#

Pokemanz did a DPS test and got higher with Seashine

civic pond
#

well god dang

#

isn't bladecrest one of those fat swords

gloomy hazel
#

Phoenix Blade is THE big sword

hollow shell
#

Of course he is only a man so you can do a more professional test if you want

#

and nah, Old Lord Oathsword is the fat one

civic pond
#

got it.

radiant meadow
#

ye bladecrest is faster

gloomy hazel
#

ah...

radiant meadow
#

phoenix blade is like post plant

gloomy hazel
#

Old Lord's the biggest then

hollow shell
#

(it's not)

#

(s'just
one of the two pre-HM underworld swords)

gloomy hazel
#

"frowns"

civic pond
#

i'd be happy if it just autoswings tbh

lost agate
#

autoswing might make it too strong

civic pond
#

i can still finger spam

hollow shell
#

Does Seashine need to be nerfed, then, perhaps?

#

Too strong for Post-DS?

civic pond
#

seashine isn't even that powerful

#

not in my opinion

lost agate
#

the dmg only goes high on true melee range

gloomy hazel
#

Auto-swing and manual swinging doesn't give much difference to the DPS, the only thing is that you have to keep clicking

civic pond
#

its a tiny sword

radiant meadow
civic pond
#

i made the mistake of using it against crabulon.

radiant meadow
#

shit, it cut out bladecrest

civic pond
#

bladecrest looks like it'd be better

smoky wagon
#

bladecrest is better for only the projectile

#

who is hitting skeletron with the sword itself

radiant meadow
#

it is better

#

bladecrest doesn't need a buff and seashine doesn't need a nerf

civic pond
#

well there we go

smoky wagon
#

so many tombstones

hollow shell
#

you got like 40 DPS on both

smoky wagon
#

use NoMoreTombs pls

civic pond
#

one thing about suggestions..

#

would it be better to create a sprite prior?

gloomy hazel
#

I think yes

civic pond
#

because i see a few of those lying around

gloomy hazel
#

It gives an idea of what the suggestion would look like to the readers

hollow shell
#

It helps the star count rise but it doesn't necessarily help the devs unless you've got some spriting experience

civic pond
hollow shell
#

Chances are it'd need to be resprited anyway

civic pond
#

fair enough

#

weapons seem like a dead end thing to suggest to me..

#

especially melee

gloomy hazel
#

I've made some big sprites years ago, but I'm an amateur at this kind of art. Shading sprites is what makes the quality

hollow shell
#

I don't know if any weapon suggestions have ever gotten in

civic pond
#

well thats not a good sign.

gloomy hazel
#

how about a draw rather than a sprite?

#

no?

hollow shell
#

You could

queen delta
#

Yeah i kinda expected my weapon suggestion to not make it in so i became a patron to get it in

gloomy hazel
#

Does images of reference count as well?

#

like IRL pictures?

civic pond
#

im tempted to go patron HyperFailure

hollow shell
#

You could add reference pictures yeah
Definitely credit where it's from, if it's from something

queen delta
#

Only become a patron when you’re positive your idea is a good one

gloomy hazel
#

I too would like to become a patreon for Calamity, but it's 20 bucks per month for a weapon...and I don't have a job yet. If I do become a patreon as well, my family will remove my credit card (who still has over 1000€ stored inside)

hollow shell
#

Heh

#

Fair enough

civic pond
#

20 a month

#

huM

radiant meadow
#

seashine got like 20-30 dps

gloomy hazel
#

Do you have to be subscribed permanently to have your weapon in the mod, or you can be a patreon temporarily and still have the weapon in the mod after you end your subscribtion to Calamity?

radiant meadow
#

bladecrest got like 40-50

#

you only need to donate $20 once

gloomy hazel
#

oh, so you don't have to be permanently subscribed to Calamity's patreon then

civic pond
#

So bladecrest is better

#

finally

#

done

hollow shell
#

@slate crown See ^

civic pond
#

therefore no buffs

queen delta
#

If you continue to pay $20 every month, would you get a new item that month?

gloomy hazel
#

I doubt that

hollow shell
#

Nah

#

One per person

civic pond
#

that't be cuckoo

gloomy hazel
#

that's what I thought

queen delta
#

Figured

civic pond
#

the item im thinking of is the only one im really trying to not screw up on

queen delta
#

Yeah wait till you get a good idea before donating

#

Think: what could this mod use?

civic pond
#

A flail

smoky wagon
#

an accesory that increases blood orb drops in hardmode

civic pond
#

literally just bloodflare armor

#

brohureha

queen delta
#

I first based my idea off what class is lacking power in what stage of the game

smoky wagon
#

thats post ml

civic pond
#

ono

#

Lacking power?

smoky wagon
#

i want like a blood amulet that makes it 25%

queen delta
#

I went with darksun tier melee, and looked back on elemental shiv and decided that needs a upgrade

#

So i did a shiv upgrade on darksun tier

gloomy hazel
#

@civic pond If you want to suggest a weapon with a donation, make sure your weapon is balanced, that the way it works doesn't look similar to another weapon from the mod itself and that it isn't too complex to code

civic pond
#

i know that already

#

👀

gloomy hazel
#

okay then

smoky wagon
#

do they accept summon wep suggestions

#

im curious

gloomy hazel
#

I won't bother you further

smoky wagon
#

i havent seen any

civic pond
#

summons are probably a pain to code

hollow shell
#

I don't think there's a rule against that

civic pond
#

from what i've heard..

queen delta
#

Profaned soul artifact was a patron item

civic pond
#

epic

hollow shell
#

But yes they are notoriously hard
Traditional ones anyway

civic pond
#

oh

smoky wagon
#

plaugbringer staff

#

takes four minion slots

#

alternates between charging and stingers

civic pond
#

I just hope a flail cant be that hard to code

#

*right

#

e

gloomy hazel
#

There certainly is a lack of flails in both the game and the mod

civic pond
#

im trying to get an upgrade to cosmic discharge

hollow shell
#

ono

queen delta
#

Whats the most popular suggestion? Cuz i think plaguebringer staff is one

civic pond
#

i suggested plaguenades

smoky wagon
#

i feel like flails are hard to code considering the ones in the mod are similar to vanilla ones

#

in terms of behaviour

civic pond
#

which was really common

slate crown
#

yay bladecrest buff GWseremePeepoHappy

hollow shell
#

It varies with time but a plague summon weapon is high up there

#

also no Pokemanz, that was the data of the current game

gloomy hazel
#

for now, the most recent suggestion that had a good amount of stars is the addition of chests in the sunken sea

civic pond
#

what about the bumblebirb staff/mount/pet

#

i assume thats common

slate crown
#

o wtf

smoky wagon
#

"add yharim as a boss"

gloomy hazel
#

Already planned

hollow shell
#

Yeah that's a one

civic pond
#

bruh

smoky wagon
#

lazy devs smh

queen delta
#

“Calamity and thorium crossover”

#

b r u h

hollow shell

I'm finna add Calamity and Thorium crossover to the Frequently Suggesteds

queen delta
civic pond
#

finally

gloomy hazel
#

For real? Or it's for the joke?

civic pond
#

well why not

#

.

queen delta
#

Its hella common

civic pond
#

i've seen like 3 this week

hollow shell
#

It is relatively frequently suggested and nothing's gonna come of it soon

civic pond
#

i swear half the suggestions are just 5 second ideas

#

maybe its just me

#

maybe not half

queen delta
#

Yeah it seems like it too

#

It varies

#

Usually one 5 second idea comes after another

#

And continues to pile up

civic pond
#

"make (insert boss)

hollow shell
#

Almost everyone's caught on that that's not allowed

#

Like, less than one suggestion per month is a boss suggestion

smoky wagon
#

as much as i would like more minibosses

queen delta
#

I think i see more than once a month

smoky wagon
#

i feel like that they never will be added

#

anytime soon

civic pond
#

i like the idea of most minibosses though

hollow shell
#

That, Stark, is also a pretty common suggestionHDfailure

queen delta
#

Sunken sea wouldve been useless without a miniboss anywaya

hollow shell
#

And it was indeed considered
even planned to get in

but it didn't
for some reason

smoky wagon
#

some biomes are spiced up by minibosses a ton

#

like earth elementals in underground

queen delta
#

Earth elementals are annoying party crashers

civic pond
#

very.

smoky wagon
#

i feel like one miniboss per hardmode biome would be cool

#

i dont mind them

queen delta
#

Every time i zerg, one is bound to spawn

smoky wagon
#

if they arent too hard

civic pond
#

now im thinking of an astral miniboss

#

👀

smoky wagon
#

also i think making meld blobs drop from xeroc themed enemies in some biome

#

would be cool

#

maybe corruption/crimson

gloomy hazel
#

You've been talking about people having a 5 seconds idea, my first suggestion for Calamity was two or three weeks ago, it was for a boss mechanism where you could "spare" the boss you've fought for a unique reward. It wasn't well thought in the end

civic pond
#

yeah..

#

honestly i just want to change metorite armors set bonus

#

ffs

#

oh yeah yata hit 90 btw

#

epic

gloomy hazel
#

Now I came up with Calamitas as a town-NPC and I've done researches on the character this time, I've also checked what were the roles of the other town-NPCs and thought making her an NPC focused on buffs would give some variety...compared to most of the NPCs being vendors.

civic pond
#

seems like a big suggestion tbh

gloomy hazel
#

it got the checker though

civic pond
#

i'm gonna suggest a legit weapon now

gloomy hazel
#

"insert lul reaction"

queen delta
civic pond
#

i dont know if this is a common one but the corruption seems pretty void of enemies compared to crimson

gloomy hazel
#

And seriously, ALL the town-NPCs are vendors. All of them ask for money in exchange of an item or a service or whatever.

queen delta
#

Mega Yharon Tickler

Classless weapon that tickles Yharon. Nothing else.

#

Why? Dunno why the fuk not

civic pond
#

Yata dont make that my patron item

gloomy hazel

There are some exceptions, but still, they most of them want to sell, sell, sell, sell and sell

this is why guide is the best

but the ion blaster uses both

also, I don't know if that needs a doc — it's pretty short for a suggestion, and if you scale the image down a way it'll be a pretty easy fit

#

Calamitous essence are ok to mess with, shadowspec stuff tho

proven tide
#

also having art (sprite/drawing) greatly increases the chance of being starred as it draws the eye — the exact opposite effect of having a doc

civic pond
#

oh thats right

#

nvm

proven tide
#

calamitous essence is technically okay but people don't tend to support it as it's a simple backdoor into shadowspec anyway thonk

civic pond
#

calamitous essense isn't a dev item

proven tide
#

@lusty idol so uhh doc mightn't be the best platform for that suggestion

lusty idol
#

What could I use instead?

proven tide
#

Just a post

lusty idol
#

Also regarding the Calamitous Essence, I know that SCal would be the main thing to drop it, but if it's a really hard boss when it becomes part of progression, I thought there would be a better way to obtain it. Obviously not a big amount.

What it does - Insane movement speed with high damage output.

  • During a Full Moon/Bloodmoon, regarding the image, its “spikes” will glow purple. It will also gain a small damage and speed increase OR maybe instead of a speed increase, it gains an ability to teleport around the player (similar to a Chaos Elemental), leaving a purple-black smoke after teleportation

Where it’s found - Spawns in the Corruption at dusk, post-Supreme Calamitas.

What it drops - Chance to drop a number of Calamitous Essence

Why it should be added - I heard the devs want some love for the world evils, so this one is based off an intimidating calamitous, corrupted creature. I also took into consideration of SCal becoming a progression boss, so I thought there would have to be some other enemies to share dropping Calamitous Essence.

While this is not my art, this may help give a general idea as to what it might look like: https://bit.ly/2HhkiSm

if you want you can drop in the link to the original art like so

lusty idol
#

Ye I guess. This was an old suggestion, but I guess I thought just seeing the picture while reading would help the readers. Ill do that though

Dude, you're like, a mega help person

proven tide
#

right now just copy/paste that in and it should be good thonk

queen delta
#

Also I'm thinking yet another suggestion: if scal is nohit with armageddon mode on, she drops either 6 of the dev weapons (5 in normal) or all of it

lusty idol
#

Thanks so much, whatever you just did is not within my ability. xD

proven tide
#

armageddon
in normal
wait since when

#

woah shit lad

lusty idol
#

Wait, how did you get it into that weird background?

proven tide
#

magic

#

*taps nose

civic pond
#

all of it?

proven tide
#

uwu

lusty idol
#

ye

#

the text box

proven tide
#

anyway yeah just drop that big boi message into chat and done

lusty idol
#

Will it have the text box?

proven tide
#

no, that removes the formatting

#

that's just for you to be able to drop it in with pre-made bold and italics

#

so just highlight the text and c/p

lusty idol
#

kk

proven tide
#

tadah

lusty idol
#

ohhhh i see what it did

#

thanks dude

proven tide

np uwu

#

scal drops enough essences to craft dev items of a certain class tho, probably even demonshade, iirc

#

but still, pretty good way of farming i guess

lusty idol
#

Although its weird having that guy there, I probably should have cropped him out

proven tide
#

hol up you've got the link in twice thonk

#

delete the suggestion it's time for suggestion v1.4

radiant meadow
#

it's fine

#

it doesn't show the picture twice

proven tide
#

well it's not that so much as tweaks regarding the link and such

#

and i dislike the little edited bar

lusty idol
#

oh lol

queen delta
#

edited suggestions are normal tho

#

suggestions discussion is for feedback on suggestions, and the person who sent it can edit the suggestion based on that feedback

radiant meadow
#

just because you dislike something doesn't mean you have to revamp the entire thing

lusty idol
#

ehh. I dont like it either, but whatevs

queen delta
#

Also im thinking of a minor suggestion, also related to SCal

#

If SCal is beaten in armageddon mode, then she drops either 6 dev items or all of it at once

#

including demonshade armor

#

as a nice reward for the challenge, regardless of mode

void kelp
#

I like that idea since it at least makes nohitting her give an in-game reward

radiant meadow
#

just code her a bag

lusty idol
#

^

queen delta
#

Hmm should i include that in my suggestion somewhat?

radiant meadow
#

but like sprite sentinels bag while you're at it HDfailure

queen delta
#

i dunno how to sprite

proven tide
#

@lusty idol

#

haha i'm

#

do thing

#

it is crop

lusty idol
#

ooof. noiceu

#

Im not sure if I want to edit the suggestion again though. Im ok with it right now

proven tide
#

yeah but crop fair fair

lusty idol
#

hehe

radiant meadow
#

that's just a calamitas bag resprite?

queen delta
#

calamitas treasure bag but tinted with red

radiant meadow
#

which is an eoc bag resprite?

queen delta
#

plus number 2 and 3 doesnt work out well

#

thats alchnpc's job, not ours

radiant meadow
#

3 isn't related to alch

queen delta
#

and 3 doesnt seem to make sense

radiant meadow
#

3 basically is because weapons don't stack and can clutter inventory

#

although like that's a shit ton of scal farming for that to be an issue

queen delta
#

but you can have the credit for the idea ❤

proven tide
#

why the fuck reactions only displayin two names before 1 other

#

it's three damnit who's this @1 other#6969 because they're nowhere on this discord thonk

frosty kindle
#

sometimes names are "too long" to display on the popup

#

idk how its judged, but discord gotta be discord

proven tide
#

it's someone with like half a dozen characters tho

#

(emanon)

#

oh lmao now it's loaded

#

anyhow yes uhhh SCal bag

#

I'm not entirely sure how I feel about being able to stack dev items so much

gusty geode
#

I do appreciate consistency with stuff like this, but I ask myself this every time someone posts a suggestion that does nothing except limit grinding in a game that's supposed to have a lot of grinding:
How lazy can some people get?

radiant meadow
#

I mean it doesn't really limit grinding

#

given that scal nohit takes like 500+ tries for only 6 bags

proven tide
#

the point is valid everywhere except this case 'cause there are so many suggestions about limiting grinding like mm yes closed-world sandbox full of caves with all the resources already directly available at your fingertips if you just bother committing is bad because it has some slow methodical gameplay to space out the pacing

#

this ain't a hack-and-slash fellas

gusty geode
#

teal ibex
#

man you seem to harp on the way people play and envision the game a lot squid, and i really wish you wouldn't, it's subjective and valid to want certain grinds to be reduced while leaving others as is

#

its ok to have criticisms but your phrasing always comes off as abrasive to me

proven tide
#

Oh boy here I go playing devil's advocate against both sides of the discourse at once again

teal ibex
#

there's no real discourse here, i don't care to push the argument of the suggestion, i just think attacking the player rather than the idea isn't a strong contribution to suggestions

#

i think scal bag is cool but i also dont mind if it doesnt make it, thats a huge whatever for me

proven tide
#

To be fair, the game's playstyles are pretty balanced as it is, and people pushing to change mechanics and gameplay to emphasise their particular preferences is a bit of an issue that does need a bit of addressing (not particularly in this case, though)

gusty geode
#

Yeah, I was a little worried I might offend someone when I posted that
It's just that you see stuff like this so often, and there's already plenty of anti-grind stuff
I just feel like if you're after something in particular (and you probably are if you're grinding to begin with) you should have to really work for it rather than just buying it or crafting it with really easy-to-find materials

radiant meadow
#

If SCal bag was to be added, a resprite wouldn't really cut it

proven tide
#

on the flip side I don't reckon that's really down to a player's personal fault

teal ibex
#

i mean that's much fairer yes

proven tide
#

It should really be addressed regarding possible mentality shifts rather than harsh judgements of inherent character

teal ibex
#

but ultimately this wouldn't really modify the grind except for nohitters and dupers

proven tide
#

^

teal ibex
#

which are already behemoths of playstyles anyway

radiant meadow
#

onoes, can't have duping bags for br speedruns HyperFailure

teal ibex
#

:<

#

i changed my mind

#

bag is a required addition

radiant meadow
#

bags don't matter for nohitters though

queen delta
teal ibex
#

ok but seeing a (6) at the end is visually satisfying tbh

proven tide
#

This in itself isn't really an egregious example but the problem itself remains but 2: electric boogaloo don't treat it like a personal problem

#

the end

#

now onto the bag itself 👀

#

it's really a question of balance vs. efforts, risk vs. reward

#

are you willing to nohit scal for a dozen dev items

queen delta
#

yes the bag should only be dropped by scal if armageddon mode is on, and it drops all dev items

arctic wren
#

I like the idea of the bag itself having the calamity logo written/drawn on it

queen delta
#

and of course the reward isnt that great, but its better than nothing

radiant meadow
#

that would be interesting but very not worth it

gusty geode
#

And like I said, I wouldn't mind the bag itself because it'd be consistent with all the other bosses
But if the only reason it gets added is to reduce grinding via Armageddon, that's when I have a problem

teal ibex
#

nohitting scal is insanely hard

radiant meadow
#

it's honestly just a bootleg expert only trophy

teal ibex
#

youre not reducing any grind LOL
