most people dont check the pins in the first place..

empty inlet
#

i would much rather blame their inability to read the rules

hollow shell
#

@radiant meadow Could you do that real quick

#

unpin Ein's thing

elfin maple
#

i checked the pins but i bet a lot of people haven't

#

and likely won't

empty inlet
#

again, they only have themselves to blame

hollow shell
#

@elfin maple ok

#

you coulda just asked me lol

elfin maple
#

oh ok

#

should i delete it?

hollow shell
#

Ye

elfin maple
#

ok

hollow shell
#

Actually I have a better idea for the wording

#

There we go

elfin maple
#

yeah

#

that works better

radiant meadow
#

unpinned

hollow shell
#

Thank you sir

unique vector
#

@ashen trout do you mind explaining what your suggestion does?

ashen trout
#

im editing it 1 sec it was an accident

elfin maple
#

i'd assume it lets you store masks

unique vector
#

ah ye

ashen trout
#

it dont

elfin maple
#

can you clean it up a bit?

civic pond
#

foggy kindle
#

Oh come on, at the point you get Calamitous Essence you probably have enough mat to craft a bunch of EoD

civic pond
#

point taken

foggy kindle
#

In fact... that's why I made that suggestion lol, too many blighted lens in my chest, and they don't have any other things to do (beside selling them)

zenith hazel
#

so a hardmode last prism?

frank stratus
#

not exactly hmm

#

i was thinking of like, some sort of ray

#

specifically like when you focus light with a magnifying glass but also with the properties of coc and cr's inferno tower, where the longer the beam is hitting an enemy, the higher and higher it deals damage

opaque grail
#

so.... last prism

#

Focus light
some sort of ray
the longer the beam is hitting an enemy, the higher and higher it deals damage

foggy kindle
#

Basically

lost agate
#

@queen delta i dont think thats really a good reason, because ofc the attacks are always near your range, they either spawn based on your location or are homing projectiles

#

And idk if despawn distance is something that can be edited

frank stratus
#

im pretty sure you can force a boss to not despawn

#

but despawn distance? ehhh

queen delta
#

well, scal doesnt despawn no matter the distance, yharon p1 cant either, but p2 can despawn if you're too far

frank stratus
#

although that's just forcing the boss to not despawn at all

#

you probably wouldn't want that with ravager

lost agate
#

Then its either no despawn or that range of despawn

frank stratus
#

yeah

#

personally i wouldn't care if it didn't despawn i just don't want it to just jump and disappear during a battle

lost agate
#

Which kinda screws with how ravager despawns

frank stratus
#

oh

lost agate
#

He plummets down and despawns after a certain distance

frank stratus
#

right, it makes it easy to cheese

lost agate
#

It makes him unable to despawn when you die rather

#

Either he starts falling non stop or he doenst despawn at all

frank stratus
#

maybe letting it despawn when you die but if you're alive it doesn't despawn? hm

lost agate
#

Idk if that would screw with the ai

frank stratus
#

don't think it would

#

since despawning during a fight is unintentional

lost agate
#

I mean, pbg doesnt have a forced despawn when you die because it screws with ai

#

So ravager could potentially be the same

frank stratus
#

o

queen delta
#

has fab said anything about why ravager despawns so easily?

lost agate
#

Because thats the normal despawn distance

queen delta
#

so whats the difference between providence, which seems to not despawn no matter the distance, unless you're dead, and pbg, that despawns after some distance, but doesnt despawn on death?

quiet abyss
#

Ravager isn’t the most mobile of bosses, even when it starts jumping twice as rapidly
For players who move around a lot, especially moving upwards, it’s why ravager feels like he despawns so easily

lost agate
#

Its not that he doesnt despawn on death

queen delta
#

I'm just saying it could be increased, not made infinite

#

His despawn distance seems too short imo

lost agate
#

You sure thats something that can be done?

queen delta
#

I dunno, but i might as well suggest it

lost agate
#

And no, provi and pbg have two different despawn methods

queen delta
#

but how are they made tho?

lost agate
#

Provi basically enables despawning when you are dead, pbg only despawns if hes offscreen and you were a certain amount of time outside the jungle- LEMME FINISH LMAO

queen delta
#

lol

#

if only i could peek thru ur camera and see what you were typing

#

maybe i can

lost agate
#

You can literally see when im typing

quiet abyss
#

Teenagers these days have no patience to wait for someone to finish speaking/typing smh HDfailure

queen delta
#

I aint an impatient teenager :c

quiet abyss
#

That means you’re a teenager in adult’s body then HyperFailure
...All jokes aside, back to the topic

proven tide
#

@mystic sandal scal drops are dev items only

mystic sandal
#

oh

proven tide
#

except calamitous essence, which is a grey zone

mystic sandal
#

i forgot that

#

sorry about that

ashen trout
#

ye and that would be a pain in the buttex to get

#

but you can make it worst and make it drop from calamitas

mystic sandal
#

how about this item

#

you have to beat supreme calamitas without getting hit on deathmode with the iron heart and defiled rune

#

and it has a 0.1% drop rate

#

you also have to defeat her with the tin broadsword

foggy kindle
#

Might as well skip it entirely

ashen trout
#

ye

#

just like, idk

foggy kindle
#

I'd rather play hard for the LUL than farming for that item

#

Cuz at least the LUL gives you godmode

quiet abyss
#

The iron heart and defiled rune part already sounds too unreasonable

mystic sandal
#

i was being sarcastic

ashen trout
#

ik

quiet abyss
#

...In a channel where you shouldn’t be?

ashen trout
#

maybe you can make it a craftable item instead with shadowspec and some other stuff

foggy kindle
#

Shadowspec is reserved for dev items tho

queen delta
#

@spiral olive Maybe just give them the DoG treatment (Meaning their segments wont be able to be hurt until they leave the "bundle of segments")

frank stratus
#

OH YEAH eow lag

#

holy shit that thing broke my computer

queen delta
#

I already said it in the other server, but I may as well include it here in case you didnt' see the first one

spiral olive
#

ye i saw, i still see it to be pointless since they're only tier one bosses, they should die pretty quickly

queen delta
#

While yes, most tier 1 bosses can be melted, EoW and destroyer could still lag if you attack the bundle of segments, so it'd be best to let both get the DoG treatment.

#

Even with the DoG treatment, they can still be melted very quickly anyways

spiral olive
#

either way works ye

queen delta
#

Just removing DR would only shorten the lag, and make the already easy bosses even more melt-able

#

the DoG treatment would remove most of the lag, as well as making it not too meltable, but still easy

wide patrol
#

Imagine something with 0 pick power but as fast as possible
For the sake of lumenyl, prism shards, and Crystal shards

queen delta
#

Thats a good concept, but i wouldnt see it being any useful in game

ashen warren
#

What is this , Digging claws that mines nothing?? No please

proven tide
#

selfstar™

zenith hazel
#

doesn't that ruin the purpose of lore items?

#

they're supposed to clutter your inventory so you have to plan out which ones to use and which ones not to use

ashen warren
#

Imagine DS lore on jungle

proven tide
#

while we're at it have accessories work in vanity slots

zenith hazel
#

that suggestion has also been suggested a few times

proven tide
#

are you kidding

#

i was being a shitlord are you serious

zenith hazel
#

the lore items in piggy bank I mean

proven tide
#

ah

split quiver
#

a mod does that vanity accesory thing and it's busted

#

antisocial I think

#

also them cluttering your inventory is only a problem when exploring because when fighting bosses you're not going to be picking anything up

#

so it really wouldn't matter much in terms of balance if they worked from piggy bank

pliant bone
#

Lore items basically force you to manage your inventory slobbyjoy

ashen warren
#

but like few are useful in a few situations

mental path
#

honestly losing an inventory slot is too low a price to have such good buffs

queen delta
#

Yeah lore items dont have enough of an impact for me to worry about them during nohits

pliant bone
#

I only use like the EoC lore for nohits

queen delta
#

But yes they should be limited to inventory only

mental path
#

also, making a chest and filling it with lore items only and only using the ones you need is one way to manage through the inventory if you really have trouble

#

even if it gets filled, you still have piggy banks/safes to store items

#

also defender's forge but nobody does ooa xd

split quiver
#

haha yes

strange trench
#

Magic Storage practically eliminates any storage problem you'll ever have

amber canopy
#

wait

#

you sure you want all lore items on?

#

including scal's?

ashen warren
#

imagine DS lore on jungle

strange trench
#

Go to hell.

worthy fiber
#

Too harsh?

ashen warren
#

Nah hes referencing the scal lore

worthy fiber
#

oh right

split quiver
#

after scal is literally just boss rush, fill up with 20 pots and you can still fit all the lore items in your inventory

opaque grail
#

woo nincity you got to 40

golden kayak
#

What scals lore item does?

zenith hazel
#

insta kills you when you get hit

golden kayak
#

Nice one. Even better than Slime God's one.

tired haven
#

Slime God lore is actually good tho
Bootleg Burder Breaker that works in boss fights

proven tide
#

might throw it into my runs henkhenk

frank stratus
#

its not exactly that

#

if you've used frozen slime blocks before its the same

#

because if you're fighting wof with slime god lore you don't need to have your left hand on the keyboard at all

zenith hazel
#

unless you want to jump to avoid lasers maybe, idk

frank stratus
#

no you should be able to outrun them unless wof is at like 10% hp then you'll die anyways

zenith hazel
#

well yeah

zenith hazel
radiant meadow
#

allowing lore to work from piggybank/safe/forge would cause huge balance issues

worthy fiber
opaque grail
#

the less inv is a very small price for their op buffs

radiant meadow
#

@golden kayak axe of purity shoots purification powder
it should act the same

golden kayak
#

@radiant meadow No, it doesn't work the same. I just tried to clean my Crimson desert and ... walls just refused to be normal again, so yeah.

radiant meadow
#

does purification powder work?

golden kayak
#

Oh, it is not, sorry, will delete the suggestion. I feel stupid now.

lost agate
#

Pretty sure the balance point of lore items is exactly cluttering your inventory

#

Sooooo

delicate raft
#

Of course

#

You don't expect to have all those buffs for free, do you? HyperFailure

novel pebble
#

How does one discuss bugs lmao

#

"ye indeed this bug exist"

smoky wagon
#

Oh my sugg got 90 stars

sick bane
#

Nice

#

Mine got 86 and I was depressed

zenith hazel
#

mfw a cultist-tier accessory renders most slimes useless HDfailure

radiant meadow
#

it'll make absorber expert only

#

for no real reason?

worthy fiber
#

It's only useful early-game because you don't have to worry about getting hurt by slimes

#

No reason to need its affects again post-Plantera

opaque grail
#

^ once I've gotten a decent weapon, say around BoC strength, slimes are nothing but kb (which is negated by obby shield anyways)

lost agate
#

But then they get mega buffed on HM daryl

smoky wagon
#

Slime in early hardmode are a threat

#

If you ignore them

lost agate
#

Yeah but its still not enough reason to make it expert+

gusty geode
#

Normal mode doesn't exist anyway HyperFailure

sick bane
#

I still don't like them

#

So I changed the suggestion

#

A bit

terse sundial
#

@echo horizon can you add a why to your suggestion?

echo horizon
#

ok

#

there

terse sundial
#

i'm not sure I follow, why SHOULD it? Amidias' Trident is p decent without its whirlpools and imo does not need a buff

echo horizon
#

but the fungal symbiote?

#

Weapons that don't fire projectiles

#

And should be considered true melee?

terse sundial
#

Amidais trident isn't considered true meme even when its projectiles are locked afaik

#

literally yesterday we campaigned for an amidias trident nerf and we got it

radiant meadow
#

perhaps you should indicate that you are referring to the fungal symbiote

#

in your suggestion

#

or reword it to "Make the Amidias' Trident benefit from True melee buffs before defeating Skeletron"

echo horizon
#

Im romanian so I am not that good at english

ashen warren
#

What if this was my best suggestion

unique vector
#

its not a very good suggestion

#

just because its a boss themed by mushrooms doesnt mean everything mushroom themed should be connected to it

ashen warren
#

I see your point

unique vector
#

odd mushroom is sold by the princess because its an item that literally boosts your damage by a fuckton in expense of being able to telegraph attacks

#

having it early in the game makes little sense

ashen warren
#

in hardmode

opaque grail
#

how do u get non summoner weapons to deal less when holding a summon weapon

unique vector
#

yes ik its in hardmode

#

there's a reason its in hardmode

opaque grail
#

that means u gotta shoot, have a slow projectile, turn to summon weapon and then hit the opponent

unique vector
#

having it drop by crabulon in hardmode also makes little sense

ashen warren
#

do you have to do anything for her to sell it

unique vector
#

no?

ashen warren
#

k

royal juniper
#

Quick question, are we allowed to reiterate previous suggestions? I sent in a suggestion a while ago, it reached a high number of votes, but i do not know if anything came of it.

ashen warren
#

yeah if it was from a while ago

frail mantle
#

you can repost suggestions after a week

ashen warren
#

wait holy shit

#

Im getting stars

#

My mind is blown

frank stratus
#

lol

ashen warren
#

Its border line a meme suggestion and people like it and thats saying something knowing this server

unique vector
#

is it a meme suggestion?

#

are you literally asking me to remove it

gusty geode
#

Imo a meme suggestion isn't by definition a bad suggestion
People may still like it regardless of whether they can take it seriously or not

unique vector
#

well the man himself said it was a borderline meme one, and now im debating if i should remove it by what he said

#

@tranquil trench you should probably explain your suggestion a bit more

#

i.e. why the sfx should be changed

tranquil trench
#

My bad I press enter not shift + enter

unique vector
#

aight

ashen warren
#

I did do some editing on my suggestion

unique vector
#

pretty sure that you should have just suggested the shroomite part entirely separate from the odd mushroom part

opaque grail
#

if u dont wanna respawn

unique vector
#

some people would only want the shroomite one and not the odd mushroom

opaque grail
#

HC exists

unique vector
#

fae i think they mean that you don't perma die

#

but you cant respawn during a boss if its multiplayer

opaque grail
#

ohhh

#

oh yeah thats cool

#

cuz the whole no respawning confused me

#

I like it if thats what he meant

royal juniper
#

Ill clarify

#

Edited for clarity ^^

radiant meadow
#

isn't there a mod that does that?

royal juniper
#

Maybe? I havent gone mod searching in a while. And regardless, Calamity is a boss-centered mod, so it wouldnt be much of a stretch if a mechanic like it was implemented.

hollow shell
#

@royal juniper You suggested that before and it got sent in. Any reason why you suggested it again?

radiant meadow
#

multiplayer testing is designed with respawning in mind

#

so bosses may need to be nerfed accordingly

#

ah yes, it's called "No Boss Fight Respawn"

#

a small qol mod already exists for it

royal juniper
#

Oh, i asked if we were allowed to re-post things, and i included that it got a lot of votes. My bad, i just didnt know what happened to it. I dont know how the managment and such works, so i did not know if it got declined or forgotten about or something.

And alright, ill look into it

hollow shell
#

If your suggestion has a green check on it, that means it got sent

radiant meadow
#

you can repost something if it hasn't been sent already

#

and it's been over a week

hollow shell
#

ye, those are the criteria

#

(I don't know if that's written anywhere, actually. Even though its a solid rule)

radiant meadow
#

I don't see it anywhere

#

should ping Morp to add it to suggestion rules HyperFailure

#

@sinful violet add criteria for reposts in suggestion rules. (see like 3 messages above for criteria)

sinful violet
#

Ah

royal juniper
#

Ah, all I knew was the week part, not the sent in part.

echo horizon
#

new suggestion

#

oof

frank stratus
#

its supposed to remove the slime rain after you defeat king slime

echo horizon
#

yes

hollow shell
#

@wooden dragon You should also list how it would function. People prolly won't remember it from 10 days ago
(and, if possible, make that image not so large)

wooden dragon
#

working on it

#

forgot that again

hollow shell
wooden dragon
#

ok thx

hollow shell
#

(You can just repost the suggestion with that image considering nobody's starred it yet)

#

(ye)

wooden dragon
#

i did thx for helping me ^^

gusty geode
#

Saw that suggestion that, from what I can tell, wants to make Slime Rains stop happening after KS is killed
I don't see what a few Slimes are gonna do other than inconvenience you
If it's that big a deal just have a minion active to kill them for you

smoky wagon
#

slimes knock you around if you haven't gotten a cobalt shield yet

echo horizon
#

im angery with slimes

#

it makes me angry when im building arenas

gusty geode
#

Easy way to avoid them is to build the top layer of your arena first and work your way down
They can't jump down platforms afaik so they can't get to you
still not a big deal if they do catch you, just a few seconds lost in exchange for free gel/money, but whatever

echo horizon
#

king slime is for free gel smh

#

and for money

gusty geode
#

Just making sure you know that getting in your way and annoying you is the whole reason enemies exist at all, right

echo horizon
#

yes but slime rain

#

its.an.event.period

gusty geode
#

Higher spawn rate of slimes, big deal
If you can't build your arena under those conditions, go do something else to help with your progression
Grind for materials or other weapons, go exploring, maybe even build a different arena underground somewhere
There isn't a set order you've gotta do things in

echo horizon
#

its not higher spawn rate

smoky wagon
#

if im building an arena i have done everything else and i want to fight a boss

#

also you clearly do not understand slime rain

#

it ignores stuff like npc houses and zen potion

#

you cant avoid them

echo horizon
#

i dont even have acces to zen

gusty geode
#

That trick I mentioned before should fix it
Build the top of the arena first so they can't jump down at you

echo horizon
#

it doesnt work

gusty geode
#

How so?

echo horizon
#

they just go under

gusty geode
#

Shouldn't be able to do that afaik
Last I checked they can't jump down platforms, so unless they're placed so close together that they can jump up, which from what I've been told is bad arena design, you should be largely ok

echo horizon
#

but slime rain is anyways annoying

gusty geode
#

Still plenty of ways to work around it
Another of which is being patient and doing what you wanted to do when it ends
May not seem worth it but it's still free resources, surely you can wait a few minutes

echo horizon
#

it doesnt end soo fast

gusty geode
#

Longest I've seen is one in-game day

frail mantle
#

tbh the worst part of the slime rain is that it's not affected by things like Zen Pot

echo horizon
#

yea

tight gorge
#

Joke suggestion or serious?

#

If it's serious, Yharim is already planned to be a boss

full bramble
#

draedon, yharim, goozma, and xeroc are all planned bosses

humble cobalt
#

I'm aware that Yharim is already planned to be a boss, I just thought it would be intersting if Yharim's fight were to be like how i described it.

full bramble
#

the latter two gonna be SUPERbosses

foggy kindle
#

So Yharim isn't a superboss... How interesting

tight gorge
#

That would be near impossible to code

humble cobalt
#

Yeah i know... Which kinda sucks

frail mantle
#

i'm not sure whether or not suggestions about how upcoming bosses could work are allowed

tight gorge
#

Scratch the near part, it is impossible

humble cobalt
#

lol

full bramble
#

also read the pins

#

suggestion DON'Ts says you DON'T suggest future content that isn't implemented

humble cobalt
#

o oops

#

didn't know where the pins were

#

frick

fresh harbor
#

It's the little 📌 symbol on the top right of your screen

#

If you're on mobile, it's three dots

opaque grail
#

I love the way the Heavenfallen Stardisk attacks, it's a unique attack pattern that I've only ever seen in 1 other game, Roguelands.

#

The gauntlets in general shoot like that, but they go through walls (like most projectiles) and its random what position they start off in

#

Airsplitter
-Magic damage
-Fires 3 projectiles
-Projectiles will move to a random spot around you (same radius as stardisk) before shooting towards the mouse
-Pierces up to 2 times to a total of 3 hits (per shot)
-Goes through walls
-Possibly post-ML
-Cannot crit

#

I am not at all experienced enough to balance its damage or range or actual stats, so I just want to ask how something like this would be balanced

hollow shell
#

Well you're not supposed to give exact stats in suggestions
The concept is more important than the balance you give

#

Leave that to the testers, if it's to be implemented

bitter drift
#

is anyone thinking of new content for the hallow or just me? (if you can't tell i HATE the amount of attention this biome got from calamity AKA NON)

elfin maple
#

Yeah

#

ah my computer is having an aneurysm

bitter drift
#

wot?

elfin maple
#

ok

#

i'm good now

bitter drift
#

what is your new content?

elfin maple
#

oh not that

bitter drift
#

ah 😦

elfin maple
#

i was agreeing with sors about the balance thing

bitter drift
#

me too i also agree

opaque grail
#

should I suggest this idea or something like it?

elfin maple
#

oh no my compueter

hollow shell
#

(Also that weapon is kinda similar to Sky Fracture, ain't it?)

elfin maple
#

it's being stupid again

#

i'm gonna restart it

opaque grail
#

Sky fracture shoots 3 projectiles, the idea of this is that it shoots like random skydisks and goes through walls, like the original

bitter drift
#

funny how my computer is better then his and i can't keep a discord stream and a game open at the same timeXD

hollow shell
#

Well like
Sky Fracture also summons 3 projectiles at random positions around you that go towards the mouse
this is just that except it shows the projectiles move to their positions before firing, giving it more of a delay

#

Going through walls is indeed a difference though

opaque grail
#

lemme see what the sky fracture is like, ive only used it once years ago

elfin maple
#

i like the sky fracture

opaque grail
#

Oh yeah I remembered them summoning inside you

elfin maple
#

it's a cool weapon

frank stratus
#

sky fracture is good tbf

opaque grail
#

I like it

frank stratus
#

yeah

opaque grail
#

lemme see if I can find/record a gif of what the airsplitter shoots like in the original game

frank stratus
#

the calamity upgrade to it is good too...i think its from calamity

#

or was it vanilla sweating

#

i haven't used it in years

opaque grail
#

I dont remember a vanilla sky fracture upgrade

terse sundial
#

infernal rift and ultra liquidator are both calamity upgrades

frank stratus
#

prob calamity then

#

o yeah infernal rift

bitter drift
#

don't you combine it with the golden shower at some point?

terse sundial
#

thats for the ultra liquidator yes

bitter drift
#

ok so i did craft this weapon for my mage playthrough

opaque grail
#

ugh I dont have my airsplitter to show what its like

#

Basically it can be seen as a mix of sky fracture and stardisk, it shoots out of you like stardisk and delays before firing, but it has 3 randomly placed projectiles like the fracture

#
  • the other stuff I mentioned
frank stratus
#

NOT AGAIN

terse sundial
#

GODDAMMIT

opaque grail
#

@small talon I like ur suggestion

small talon
#

ty

lost agate
#

Did i miss another bot?

distant gyro
#

yes

opaque grail
#

oh was it a bot u were pinging for?

frank stratus
#

once the messages get deleted

#

al you see is this henkhenk

small talon
#

oof

frank stratus
#

yeah

opaque grail
#

yeah I was confused, I only realized he pinged for bot cuz I had to as well

frank stratus
opaque grail
#

Do you think airsplitter being a mix of the stardisk and sky fracture would make sense?

small talon
#

yeah it was another scamming link

bitter drift
#

y so many trolls

frank stratus
#

o i have an idea

#

hmm, i'm gonna record the bots that come by

#

there seems to be a bot that joins every day, and only one bot

#

im gonna test if it joins at a specific time so we can prepare for it

radiant meadow
#

it's not only one bot

frank stratus
#

i know

bitter drift
#

is there anyone think of ideas for the hallow that isn't me?
like why does this biome get no attention from calamity?

frank stratus
#

wait

#

you mean more than one bot joins every day?

radiant meadow
#

yes, and this getting a bit off topic

frank stratus
bitter drift
#

yaa

#

so can i get answers for my 2 questions?

smoky wagon
#

hallow gets post-ml content

#

and its still important in vanilla

hollow shell
#

It gets attention in the form of profaned stuff but I know you've discounted that

bitter drift
#

hell get the same content

smoky wagon
#

well hallow is easier to farm

bitter drift
#

cuz it's above ground

#

like it's the only biome to not have a calamity boss of it's own (prov is multi biome)

hollow shell
#

(except the Jungle Temple or the Underground/Caverns, if you wanna count those
or Granite and Marble)

#

Hallow is the most major tho

radiant meadow
#

just because profaned stuff is both underworld and hallow does not mean it should be discounted

bitter drift
#

at least hell have signus

radiant meadow
#

signus is only like 3/4 of a boss tbh

unique vector
#

just because one biome has a boss doesn't mean all should

#

and reminder that signus is more of a miniboss

bitter drift
#

dude

unique vector
#

by your logic, granite biome should have a boss too right?

smoky wagon
#

i think more post-ml content for new biomes will be a thing much later down the line

#

maybe some more profaned enemies

#

and give them some unqiue weapon drops

unique vector
#

there are way too many biomes and other aspects that calamity has to prioritize on expanding atm

bitter drift
#

calamity give every biome a boss
granite and marble aren't fully biome but count as the underground

unique vector
#

of course not everything will get equal attention

#

so is providence not a hallow boss?

bitter drift
#

yes but the hallow got almost non

#

prov is a multi biome boss

unique vector
#

so in your logic

#

that would not count

smoky wagon
#

😔 but it is fought in the hallow

unique vector
#

because your logic is what we should base it upon right

#

does the abyss have a boss?

#

i dont think so, and its a calamity biome nonetheless

bitter drift
#

a bunch

unique vector
#

list me an abyss boss

young fog
#

of mini bosses

bitter drift
#

they are just called mini bosses

unique vector
#

so by that logic hell does not have a boss either

smoky wagon
#

😔 hallow has the hallowed mimic

unique vector
#

because signus is a miniboss

bitter drift
#

who was talking about signus

unique vector
#

you were?

bitter drift
#

you talked about the abyss

unique vector
#

and im comparing your mention of an abyss boss being a miniboss to signus

#

as an example

#

there are no abyss bosses

bitter drift
#

and i swear to god some of these "mini" bosses are harder they actual mini bosses

hollow shell
#

This is getting a bit heated for probably no reason, because boss suggestions aren't allowed

unique vector
#

that would be best

bitter drift
#

ok

hollow shell
#

@loud steeple Use the Eye of Extinction somewhere else thonk

loud steeple
#

so where do you think a good place to spawn it is?

mighty mica
#

Anywhere that's open space

frail mantle
#

in the air

hollow shell
#

^ ^^

#

At this point in the game you should have most/all of the surface mapped out
even if not it's not hard to do so
just find the biggest open space that doesn't have planetoids nearby

fickle spruce
#

it's more annoying having to clear out the stuff for devourer

mighty mica
#

plus at that stage you should have quite a speedy pickaxe so clearing large areas shouldnt be too big of an issue either

hollow shell
#

Sticky Dynamite also exists
Or even Mortar Rounds

#

Yeah, just use P90 with some Mortar Rounds and you can wipe out a planetoid in a few seconds

queen delta
#

And while you’re at that, use P90 with mortar rounds for scal as well LULW

opaque grail
#

Hell has a boss, WoF

queen delta
#

And signut

#

And brimmy

foggy kindle
#

Brimstone too

small talon
#

Wtf do you mean scal i easy, are you playing on expert mode?

ashen warren
#

Providence/guardians too

elfin maple
#

that's the reason revengeance/death/defiled/armageddon exist

#

if you think the game is too easy just use them

small talon
#

thats the reason difficulty exists

unique vector
#

@elfin nest you should really explain what you mean by that

elfin maple
#

^

#

yeah that's really vague

elfin nest
#

SCal is just too easy

unique vector
#

thats not explaining

#

you're just restating what you said

elfin maple
#

on what difficulty are you playing

elfin nest
#

death

#

death mode

unique vector
#

additionally dps caps wouldn't necessarily make sense

ashen warren
#

Once you learn a boss it gets easier, thats always the case, you cant buff a boss to infinity just because the people who learned it think its easy, what would new players say?

elfin maple
#

try hardcore dad

unique vector
#

you're literally restricting people from farming her if you add a dps cap

elfin maple
#

that could easily be taken out of context

unique vector
#

additionally, difficulty is varying per person

elfin nest
#

true

elfin maple
#

yes

#

for example, i suck at the game

elfin nest
#

also i kinda feel like the revengence box is slightly too big

#

size it down by 2 block LUL

elfin maple
#

ok

ashen warren
#

I understand when people suggest making scal tougher, because she gets pretty easy once you know what to do. But i also feel like buffing and buffing her wouldnt make sense, at some point it will be impossible for normal players

elfin maple
#

yes

#

if you think it's too easy then you can just add another difficulty

ashen warren
#

True

elfin maple
#

or put some self-imposed restrictions on yourself

quick dove
#

i mean

#

im pretty sure scal is getting changed in the future

elfin maple
#

like no potions

ashen warren
#

Also dps cap only makes the fight longer, not harder

quick dove
#

shew ont even be a superboss

vestal elbow
#

I've become better and what was once hard isn't anymore, pls fix devs

quick dove
#

so i dont see any point in suggesting this

elfin maple
#

yeah

quick dove
#

because fabsol probably has an idea of what to do

#

theres no point in it

ashen warren
#

Yea, just wait for the next boss, that will be more of a challenge id imagine

elfin nest
#

I mean, SCal is meant to be a superboss

ashen warren
#

She is

quick dove
#

she isnt

elfin nest
#

i remember making that mistake saying she isnt

ashen warren
#

She is only a placeholder for superboss

#

the true superbosses are way way soon

elfin nest
#

"Not to be confused with her doppelganger.Supreme Calamitas is a post-Moon Lord superboss that can be fought anywhere and at any time of day. She is currently the most challenging enemy in the Calamity Mod and is notoriously difficult, especially on Revengeance Mode or Death Mode. The player should be very well equipped both physically and mentally before taking her on."

#

as stated by the wiki

#

shes a superboss

ashen warren
#

Wiki says superboss

#

So she is

elfin nest
#

"Supreme Calamitas is a post-Moon Lord superboss"

terse sundial
#

superboss for now

#

that may change soon

elfin nest
#

true

ashen warren
#

Prob yea

elfin nest
#

with new bosses and items she eventually wont be a superboss any longer

terse sundial
#

we are just waiting for the go ahead to change it

unique vector
#

imo superboss was mostly a term to describe her due to the fact that she used to have a hitcap

terse sundial
#

mhm

elfin nest
#

still want that hitcap back

unique vector
#

now theres more and more people saying yharon is harder than scal

#

so LaceShrug

#

anyway this isnt a convo for suggestions

elfin nest
unique vector
#

yessir

queen sail
#

Hitcap is forced/fake difficulty

#

How about that for an answer

elfin maple
#

yes

#

there's a difference between real and artificial difficulty

#

real difficulty forces you to put your skills to the test to surpass an obstacle

#

while artificial difficulty... well, doesn't

queen sail
#

Let me say this

#

If people are saying scal is easier because her hitcap was removed, what do you think that says about scal’s fight?

smoky wagon
#

what does making Scal harder accomplish

#

im pretty sure its still plenty difficult for the average playthrough

hollow shell
queen delta
#

If this suggestion was made as an attempt to get those people to understand the rules, it won't work.

#

You could have a watermark over the #suggestions-voting channel saying "Read pins" and they wouldn't do it anyways

elfin maple
#

ok

#

what i was thinking is that a channel would be more straightforward than pins

#

if you know what i mean

#

the same reason you'd always put the server rules in their own channel rather than pinning them in general

smoky wagon
#

@maiden jungle you meant impossible right

maiden jungle
#

no it is possible

pliant bone
#

Imagine tanking.

smoky wagon
#

well then the point of the feature is working

#

its supposed to make tank builds unviable because they take little skill and are cheesy

small talon
#

idk what you need to do to actually take that little damage, but it must be insane

#

actually possibly in normal mode

pliant bone
#

Unless you are using external mods too

small talon
#

but i usually play death where it does 500 damage with 150 defense

#

cant imagine how

maiden jungle
#

no sometimes in revengeance mode for some reason i get hit for less than 100 damage and she instantly kills me

#

doesnt happen often, but it happens enough to be annoying

pliant bone
#

What even is your gear

zenith hazel
#

most likely due to triumph potion tbh

#

her contact damage is pretty abnormally low, especially during some of her last phases

#

not to mention CoTBG activating at the same time

smoky wagon
#

?

#

Her contact dmg is not low

zenith hazel
#

yeah it’s not low, but the effects of triumph potion and CoTBG probably mitigate that when her hp is low

#

I somehow took 82 contact dmg on her last sepulcher phase and I didn’t even go full tank

hearty ermine
#

the scal instakill is obnoxious, i dont think they should remove it entirely, just make it so it actually just prevents cheating and absurdly tanky builds, and not just people that use auric tesla, potion buffs and a few defensive accessories

smoky wagon
#

It sounds like triumph potion should be adjusted for Scal

zenith hazel
#

^

fickle spruce
#

i'd just remove it unless a better detection can be made as i've died to it already while attempting scal too

queen sail
#

Maybe make it anything less than 50 HP

marsh gust
#

@ashen warren whats the point of making onyx excavator mine up to hellstone only if hm ores are generated upon entering hm?

ashen warren
#

ur right xD

zenith hazel
#

I mean a theme for sword shrines could be good considering it could be a nice reference to the Temple of Time from Zelda: Ocarina of Time but it feels kinda unnecessary for a place that you're gonna stay for like 10 seconds and leave

at least that's dealt with

tiny rivet
#

My only frustrations with yharon is post scal with apoth i have to farm out yharon soul fragments for the uber accessories and the invuln periods just drag out the fight

hollow shell
#

Apoth isn't exactly
farming friendly

#

or I guess it's incredibly farming friendly because it freaking loves to make you farm

foggy kindle
#

Flashback on getting that Cosmic Discharge

tiny rivet
#

Apoth mod is farm hell and i love and hate it

#

Im considering making a suggestion where post yharon his subphase invuln periods are disabled so that way it’s faster to farm him out
Would pair well with DoG losing his sentinels after the first fight

hollow shell
#

There was a suggestion to have him spawn instantly into Phase 2 if you have his lore item in your inventory

tiny rivet
#

I like that idea but just removing his subphase invuln periods would sorta be the idea met halfway where some people would say half the challenge is in phase 1 and skipping that phase would defeat some of the challenge of yharon

hollow shell
#

By removing the invulnerability periods, do you mean
making him able to take damage during the transitions
or that he doesn't stop to roar for transitions, he just goes straight into the next subphase with no indicator?

#

Cuz I could see the latter working
The former might make him too easy to kill

tiny rivet
#

He doesn’t stop to transition

#

He immediately switches instead

hollow shell

Aight

@last pendant There's a mod called Recipe Browser that's pretty intuitive and fills every role you put out in your suggestion. You should give it a shot. It tells you all the crafting or craftable recipes, all the materials, etc. and you can even double click on items to go further down their crafting tree. For that reason, I don't think that a recipe book is too needed in Calamity though.

last pendant
#

@brave birch Thank you for your help, much appreciated. The only question I have is is it a item, or do you need to make a hot key?

brave birch
#

It's a hot key, then a UI appears, and there's a little box in the top left where you can place down a material and see what it's used for.

last pendant
#

That’s what I don’t like... I highly thank you for the mod you told me about, but it feels like there is no challenge.

#

The thing is.

#

When you get something like that.

#

I feel it gets too over powered, when you start the game.

#

But.

#

With a item, I feel it would be more balanced.

#

Because I don’t want people to rely on the guide all the time, or not all the time.

#

It’s a game mechanic that needs to be important.

#

But thank you for the suggestion.

brave birch
#

Well, ultimately, the item you've suggested can be made pre-boss theoretically. Imo, I consider crafting less of a challenge, but more of a thing you need to know about. But I guess I see where you're coming.

last pendant
#

I guess you do have a point as well.

#

But.. I don’t want that crafting recipe exactly, maybe like a different one..? I haven’t played too much calamity mod to know that bosses, items, etc.

#

Overall, thank you for discussing this with me, I feel like it balances it out, kinda.

glad loom
#

Did u call a recipe book op??

placid moth
#

@last pendant Did you mean - Recipe Browser ?

last pendant
#

Recipe browsers are ok..

#

But the thing is.

#

They need balancing too.

#

Because.

placid moth
#

What.

last pendant
#

The guide needs a purpose too..

#

And I feel like a book would make it better.

placid moth
#

The guide's purpose is literally to summon a boss.

#

And serve as comic relief.

#

But, yes, I would love to be able to combine all the lore items.

queen delta
#

Lets not combine the lore items

#

They serve as a way to give benefit, at the cost of taking up inventory space

placid moth
#

Fair enough, I guess.

#

But the Mech's Lore are just too valuable to give up.

#

I gotta suck it up, I guess.

glad loom
#

How is a recipe browser op

placid moth
#

It isn't.

glad loom
#

People can just google stuff anyways

queen delta

Its a QoL mod, not a boss eraser

@ashen warren not trying to be rude but can you format it please?

#

@ashen warren sir, please heed my advice

It's all over the place right now and can definitely made cleaner

#

the suggestion

#

for one thing, the recipe

#

12 presents at what exactly?

#

anvil? ancient manipulator? another present?

spark flax
zenith hazel
#

aren’t presents only dropped during christmas?

young fog
#

yes

ashen warren
#

isn't today christmas?

young fog
#

unless you have either luiafk or fargo's

zenith hazel
#

so is the weapon a frost moon drop or a craftable item because there’s “12 christmas presents” in the suggestion?

#

unless he’s referring to 12 presents surrounding an enemy

placid moth
#

It's a pretty effortless suggestion.

zenith hazel
#

yeah the wording is so confusing

smoky wagon
#

Why does it have so many lines

ashen warren
#

@queen delta Bumble isn't ment to be hard

#

Hes like slime king, profaned guardiens or desert scourge. There ment to be easy

queen sail
#

Why are you tagging him

queen delta
#

cuz im the one who suggested to make birb harder

#

Birb isn't like profaned guardians or king slime tho

#

Profaned guardians are just the gate to providence

#

Birb is sorta a gate to Yharon, but he drops weapons as well, and looks to be intended as an actual boss

#

So it needs a bit of a buff, as well as more strategy to it

queen sail
#

The only thing profaned guardians need is something to make them worthwhile

#

Because tbh

#

You only really fight them once and then they’re forgotten

#

Because the nonconsumable profaned core just needs a bit of hallow/hell farming

#

Give them like

#

A RIV at least

bitter drift
#

maybe an RIV of the counter scarf

#

i swear to god thus has been suggested so many times XD

thin shale
#

Exactly. Counter Scarf’s dash distance needs to be buffed. I feel like the Shield of Cthulhu is more useful in some cases

bitter drift
#

you know that you should switch from scarf to sheild post plant

#

in the time where u have no other options it's pretty balanced

#

ntl this is needed

young fog
#

it used to be twice as long

bitter drift
frail mantle
#

CS is still better than SoC even though its dash is shorter

shell lynx
#

I think it'd be pretty cool if you could upgrade the CS somehow

frail mantle
#

yea

#

i've thought about an Exo SoC and CS upgrade before, something like bonking when visibility is off and the CS dash when it's on, but i feel like it's just not really necessary

shell lynx
#

CS kinda reminds me of signus' clothes

#

but red

bitter drift
#

god of dead memes
i think of an tsunami in a bottle to upgrade it and u can change the direction you charge to even up and down

smoky wagon
#

?

#

whats the deal with true dmg

cyan lagoon
#

@obtuse glacier there is no "true" damage

smoky wagon
#

maybe like the magnum and its upgrades

#

but even then not really

bitter topaz
#

true damage is typeless damage, cob
but why would you make them immune to it anyway?

young fog
#

they're kinda obsolete at that point

smoky wagon
#

yharim isnt even in the game

young fog
#

to make rev less abusable?

#

its not abusable in the first place tbh, the added difficulty to everything makes up for it

young fog
#

No, that's also dumb. Having them need to be in inventory is one of the only things keeping them balanced

#

Also you didn't list any of the new changes or effects HyperFailure

dusty stirrup
#

That'd be too much work to put into a sugmas!!!

#

young fog
#

don't say sugmas balls

open prairie

should less space for lore items be in the no-no docs?

I approve of getting it removed, it really doesn't fit in theme wise next update

@queen delta is there any way to fix that?

queen delta
#

no iirc

#

just leave modded items out of item frames and armor stands and you should be fine

ivory heart
#

Attack Combo Damage
The attack speed and power of weapons can go up or down depending on a hidden meter that increases every time you hit an enemy, and this meter can only go up once every half second. After three seconds of not hitting anything, the meter drops down at a rate of once every second. This meter power caps off at twenty without any accessories or armor.
Certain armor sets and accessories that boost attack speed and power can boost the max meter power, lower the cool down between meter increases, allow for more time without hitting anything before the meter power drains, and/or slow down the power drain.

its the opposite tho

ashen warren
#

^

ivory heart
#

P90 only has the same problem as ranged weapons that fire less than once every half second

ashen warren
#

why that isn’t a good idea

ivory heart
#

For combo building

#

Though it is efficient

#

Slow firing weapons benefit the most building combos

ashen warren

maybe a specific weapon could have combos, but there are just too many high use time weapons to be excluded

I don't really think people are gonna like it much though, sadly. Ah well. At least it's out there.

Gonna keep a close eye on that suggestion.

I bet Fury would like it.

And other builders.

imo there really aren't enough crafting stations to make too much of a difference

it'd be a waste of exo material

Combined crafting stations are always a good idea, especially when magic storage is installed. +1

@rancid laurel I think the negative heal is a feature.

placid moth
#

If Providence's flames do regular damage, I can't have adrenaline anymore y'know

terse sundial
#

It's like that for one of the reasons mentioned in the suggestion

rancid laurel
#

Why would it be a feature though?

terse sundial
#

It's to punish the player for bad positions

rancid laurel
#

For the flat 150 damage maybe

oblique geyser
#

To make the fight more challenging

queen sail
#

Also so it allows them to get hit more

terse sundial
#

You can get hit multiple times for that reason

queen sail
#

Because negative healing doesn’t trigger inv frames

terse sundial
#

This is intensional

queen sail
#

Also it’s not that hard if you stay your distance

rancid laurel
#

I know it sounds kinda stupid but my first Provo fight I saw green numbers and got massacred because I didn't bother to see what those numbers are lol

queen sail
#

Stay your distance and watch where they move

#

If you’re on rev a green one will appear every so often which actually heals you

rancid laurel
#

On expert it does that too

#

Holy Napalm Rockets ( I and II )
Post-ML ammo for launchers
An upgraded version of rockets III and IV, with a very slightly increased explosion, more damage, and inflicting Holy Inferno.
* Maybe lower defense of enemies by 15 points?
Recipe: Rocket III or IV + Unholy Essence

Why?: While it is simple somewhat, an additional ammo for one of the underappreciated subclass would maybe flesh out the Post-ML launchers a little bit

do exo bricks, sound good?

#

or is it another bad suggestion?

radiant meadow
#

why though

round falcon
#

ok i rarely ever share ideas but

terse sundial
#

I don't understand why either

round falcon
#

reverse of that one shotgun that speeds up, starts fast, low-damaging, and inaccurate but slows down, deals more damage, and all the bullets basically stack on top of each other

terse sundial
#

sound neat, but I'm not if it's purpose in-game

round falcon
#

maybe the 1,732,219th exo gun suggestion

#

post-plantera sounds cool for it

#

martians could get a gun drop?

terse sundial
#

sounds decent

#

sounds good to me

smoky wagon
#

aren't RiVs supposed to be near the tier of the original weapon

round falcon
#

That's the fun of the confusing part

#

It's like a joke only I get

smoky wagon
#

also xenopopper is a good reason to fight the martians

#

still a cool concept

round falcon
#

The whole idea is it's a normal Butcher (weapon) that the Martians tried to recreate, but their confounding technology got it backwards

#

Rehctub
It seems that not all martian technology is superior in every way...
Rare item variant of the Butcher
Dropped from the Martian Saucer at an 11% chance
Fires fast, inaccurate shotgun spreads with low damage that slow down as the weapon is used, with the bullets getting closer together and the damage slowly rising. Velocity also slightly increases as the speed decreases.

Fires Nano Bullets if no special ammunition is used.

Why do I feel this should be added? To give Rangers (specifically gunslingers) a second reason to fight the Martians. Also, I love the Butcher as a concept- the more you focus, the more rewards you reap. Additionally, giving the player unique strategies of either committing to the long game of waiting on the gun to slow down or firing short, quick, low-damage bursts to deal reliable damage means this weapon can help with cleaning up some stragglers or finally putting that Lucky Coin to good use. Also, Nano Bullets are legitimately forgettable. Why not put them in just one thing?

edited version because discord broke

#

eh, ill just post it now

proven tide
#

@round falcon not 11%

#

all rariants are 2% drops

terse sundial
#

nope

#

It's 0.5% for normal enemy drops, 1% from rare enemies and mini-bosses, and 2.5% drop from Bosses

round falcon
#

saucer's technically a boss right

terse sundial
#

yes and no

round falcon
#

fixed.

#

1%

proven tide
#

oh

#

neat

#

dune hopper is the only exception, at 2.78% chance in Expert+

sand umbra
#

Actually the Eye of Magnus is the other exception.

#

At a fairly high 10% chance from Rune Wizards.

@ashen warren Why?

ashen warren
#

Its like that with any game with rarity tiers

unique vector
#

what would be the purpose to have bootleg unnerfed halibut cannons

proven tide
#

^

unique vector
#

as advice, you should make suggestions that would help contribute to the content or flow of the mod and not because it would align with other game practices

proven tide
#

when everyone talks about the halibut as stupidly broken and needing to be rarer but never mention the old .1% super-nuke yharim's crystal

#

<sad rock noises>

ashen warren
#

i just want a summoner riv

#

tbh

unique vector
#

yharim's crystal is still solid for things like scal and br

proven tide
#

ya

#

but the old tiny-chance-from-anything one was even more busted than the old halibut tbh

#

point stands, though: why

lost agate
#

We have the reaper and you want something even stronger?

ivory heart
lost agate
#

Yeah yeah, it got delivered

#

Fun fact is that you missed the entire point of rare variants and it somehow still got to 90 stars

spiral olive
#

first we become provi with profaned soul now we become polter with this summon smug

#

I like it tho

ashen warren
#

i'm mostly looking for ways to spice up how summoner plays, variety is the spice of life and all that

spiral olive
#

Always fun for unique weapon concepts

quiet abyss
#

Cool unique idea, but not entirely sure about the process of coding it

ashen warren
#

coding it i imagine would be quite painful, though the ai would simply be following the player rather than going after enemies akin to most summons

#

if it had it's own ai too darylsweating

quiet abyss
#

Coding summons are already a pain, and a summon that draws aggro from enemies is smth new that'd prolly be even more of a struggle to code.
Not to mention the fact that it also scales off of how many summon slots you have left when you use it, its cooldown penalty, and its boost towards the original variant of the item

ashen warren
#

could easily remove the scaling and have it be set

frosty kindle
#

prolly set to smth like 2-3 slots would be epic

ashen warren
#

the boost towards the original variant is mostly because summons struggle to keep up with DoG in p2 especially, with profaned soul being pretty much the only summon that can do it consistently

quiet abyss
#

That could work, though there's still a bit of a problem regarding coding the aggro

frosty kindle
#

i mean star(dust) Platinumguardian draws aggro HDfailure
buut then again, that's vanilla stuff, and that stuff has the most obscene, random code

spiral olive
#

It’s also stationary which is kinda like wut

quiet abyss
#

The most painful feature to code would be the recharge feature though
Stardust guardian can draw aggro but it's invincible
But this suggestion has a summon with "hp"

spiral olive
#

Maybe the cooldown could be changed so that when the player reaches a certain hp threshold, then the summon goes on cooldown

ashen warren
#

yeah that'd work too

#

would be easier to code for sure

quiet abyss
#

Sounds a bit odd, since it makes it sound like the player receiving damage hurts the summon itself 🤔
But it definitely sounds easier to code, ye

spiral olive
#

If it makes you take reduced damage too, it theoretically shouldn’t be going on cooldown too often

#

Seems to strike a decent balance

ashen warren
#

ye, i set it to 50%, having stuff at full hp and 90% would occur too frequently for the item to be useful, this strikes a good balance, and if you go below 50% it also makes the downside more lethal

spiral olive
#

I really like the idea of one minion buffing a different one actually

#

Plus phantoms are kinda the weakest of the 3 at DoG tier

ashen warren
#

even lamps are better ngl

spiral olive
#

Ye they are, they’re really quick

ashen warren
#

squids miss a fair bit due to having a projectile fired from them that dog can nyoom past but they still end up achieving more than phantoms iirc

spiral olive
#

If you can stick around doggo’s vulnerable areas then squids pack a hefty punch

Yep. On screenshoting system will ask about sharing, deleting and prolonging screenshot.

Ark of Waders
"Join the dark side of Force, we have a cookies!"
Rare variant of Ark of the Ancients

On using: shoots a dark-colored big cookie, that doesn't affected by gravity and slows over time up to halting in one place. Once halted, cookie will start to shoot many dark bolts in random directions, that have a very small chance to wither away the target with granting to owner the Rage buff to 1 second.
Cookies disappear after 30 seconds of life, dark bolts - after 7 seconds.

However, if player hold this weapon, their defense cutted by half.

Obtaining: all Hardmode Evil Biome enemies after first Mechanical Boss with 2% chance.

Reasons:

  1. More dark weapons in general.
  2. More rare variants, that acts differently from their originals.
  3. Reference to popular Star Wars internet joke.
  4. Something, that encourages Evil Biome farming in mid-HM.

Interesting concept, but the fact that you can only reflect projectiles every 10 seconds even if you don't miss sound a bit too much.
