lc is just running in one direction and jumping

#

until the two of you are running past other and the lightning bolts are closing in from either side

#

no rod because fuck grinding

ashen warren
#

If you guys want asphalt platforms use luiafk

#

smh

jovial spire
#

Its a 5% chance drop with defiled, zerg and ya get it in 2 minutes tops. @proven tide

proven tide
#

our hallow was the jungle

#

pre-mech, no steampunker

jovial spire
#

Steampunker spawns right when WoF is killed in calamity

proven tide
#

well then

#

guess seq put her elsewhere

jovial spire
#

just mine the very few blocks there are, ket them spread a little, then make a house there for her.

proven tide
#

no hallow spread

#

if we get bad rng we get bad rng and it'll stay that way

jovial spire
#

Oh well there shouldstill be enough spare blocks

proven tide
#

no

#

not gonna bother with all that when we can just slapp lc now

zenith hazel
#

are we still talking about a suggestion or...

proven tide
#

derailed slightly

plucky matrix
#

Imo asphalt needs to have a downside (solid block in this case) just because you can outrun probably 35/39 bosses with it

ashen warren
#

taking increased damage the faster you are moving

#

uh oh mighta crashed into a zombie, oh well, there goes my platinum

plucky matrix
#

That's stupid

ashen warren
#

ok

#

it kinda is but it's an idea

zenith hazel
#

@elfin maple what's the reason for this?

elfin maple
#

pressed enter too fast

#

trying to finish it now

proven tide
#

bruh just post it in here first anyway

#

that's how it should be AAAAA

elfin maple
#

ok

#

but i finished it

ashen warren
#

Fab's already doing the second option as far as I can tell.

zenith hazel
#

again, why?

elfin maple
#

nice

ashen warren
#

mainly the ore bows

#

thass 'bout it

elfin maple
#

i like it a lot when they do stuff to change the projectiles

#

besides simple stat changes there are definitely more things you can do with a bit more advanced code but seeing as calamity is one of the most popular mods then that won't be a problem

elfin maple
#

imagine a gun that makes all bullets home in or a bow that prevents arrows from being affected by gravity

frail mantle
#

Make Cursed Flames reduce enemy contact damage
Reason for this suggestion: Cursed flames are pretty weak compared to Ichor, even though it reduces DR. The DoT just doesn’t do enough to make it worth it, and Ichor is overall much better, reducing both DR and Defense. This change would promote giving players more of a choice, letting them choose whether they want to deal more damage or take less damage.

sand umbra
#

Or just make Cursed Inferno's DoT fuckin' mean something, tbf.

#

h

ashen warren
#

Cursed flames relevant for 9 bosses?
Cryo, twins, aquatic scourge, prime, clone, plant somewhat, levi ram memes, .png and duke.

#

Better than the 0 currently.

#

Buffing DoTs eh thomas?
Well do I have the suggestion for you!

#

oh jeez 120 stars sweating

sand umbra
#

How can you be suggesting it to me when I've expressed plans to do it already?~

frail mantle
#

So is that a “yes” on my suggestion

ashen warren
#

thomas if you do this I will be in your debt for years to come

ashen warren
#

Also uh, seems decent.

sand umbra
#

It's a "sorta" because Triumph Potion memes exist.

ashen warren
#

Contact DR is eh because I'm not exactly a fan of it.

sand umbra
#

Along with Paladin's Shield, Frozen Turtle Shell, Deific Amulet, and a few others I'm too lazy to remember off the top of my head.

ashen warren
#

We have many options for that, then of course transformer exists.

proven tide
#

*glances at brand of the inferno*

ashen warren
#

So you can get a fairly hefty mitigation ratio.

proven tide
#

yeees

sand umbra
#

brand of the inferno works with like

#

two fuckin' things

#

...actually no like four

#

none of them are modded

ashen warren
#

imagine defense doing anything tbh
Brand legit buffs just that iirc.

proven tide
#

death mode memes, yay/nay

zenith hazel
#

I could see the cursed inferno debuff having better utility thanks to the suggestion, especially on bosses that ram you pretty hard and are somehow vulnerable to said debuff like scal and yharon too

ashen warren
#

Yharon resets CD every frame iirc.

#

so it would mean nothing for chicken

sand umbra
#

okay but like why the shit is Yharon immune to god-slaying flames that would burn anything lower than a deity to an irrecognizable crisp

but not to some godly piss or green fire

#

explain that to me

zenith hazel
#

scal then

ashen warren
#

i mean
Ichor is basically if noxus pissed.

proven tide
#

don't get me started on ichor

ashen warren
#

wait
Astral ichor debuff? eyes2

proven tide
#

you remember what happened last time 👀

sand umbra
#

ichor is

#

a

proven tide
#

so uh can we talk about boss scaling

#

bird is higher than I eat gods why?

ashen warren
#

not any more

proven tide
#

and bird god was higher than I eat universes why??

ashen warren
#

oh you mean yharon

proven tide
#

yos

sand umbra
proven tide
#

bumblefuck is a whole other bumble of fucks

sand umbra
#

Can we talk about how an overgrown chicken is above DoG on the progression chain, despite the latter being so immensely powerful that he himself is above gods on the food chain.

#

Just think about that for a second.

ashen warren
#

I mean, yharon is a phoenix.

zenith hazel
#

can we talk about how this is totally related to the cursed inferno suggestion?

ashen warren
#

yeah

#

It's not HDFailure

proven tide
#

how about i suggest that we move dog up a tier

sand umbra
#

it's a hundred percent related, shut

proven tide
#

won't at all ruin the progression balancing

#

*glances at all the cosmilite-phantoplasm combo recipes*

#

at all

sand umbra
#

Okay so thoughts on Cursed Inferno:

#

why contact damage

zenith hazel
#

it exists

ashen warren
#

So, DoG above Yharone?

sand umbra
#

why contact damage specfiically when it already has a DoT you could buff the everliving mother fuck out of

ashen warren
#

Below darksun and so on.

#

CI dealing like, 500dps or 0.5% of enemy health whichever is higher.

sand umbra
#

500 DPS

#

smh

#

leave that to the actual DoT debuffs

ashen warren
#

I'm hearing 499

sand umbra
#

100 DPS alone would be fine given it could also reduce enemy DR by 25% so that Ichor doesn't outclass it in every way--

zenith hazel
#

if this somehow ends with someone suggesting “make cursed inferno scale in progression”

sand umbra
#

In fact, let's take it a step further, hot take: Ichor should only reduce DR by 20% in exchange for also providing a flat defense reduction.

#

CI scaling in progression

#

i'm gonna need you to shut the fuck right there

distant gyro
#

I hear the "s" word

ashen warren
#

Idk man 0.1% of health every second sounds pretty ok.

#

1000 seconds for a kill.

distant gyro
#

yea how about 33.33% hp every second

ashen warren
#

kills in 1 frame

#

there ya go, CI now better than ichor

distant gyro
#

I think 1500 seconds to kill anything with CI is good enough

sand umbra
#

hence why I made its DoT only 100.

ashen warren
#

100 still isn't much

sand umbra
#

Keep in mind that with my setup it also provides a greater DR reduction than Ichor and is just as easy if not easier to obtain.

distant gyro
#

solid +6,667 dps for death scal

civic rampart
ashen warren
#

Especially since ichor would scale into the endgame far better anyway with a flat dps boost to CI.

#

Unless you want ichor to not do that.

civic rampart
#

idk, ichor can, uh, make enemies drip piss?

sand umbra
#

simple

there are some post-ML bosses which have this lovely thing called DR and only DR

#

SCal comes to mind

ashen warren
#

Polt, providence, and yharon are the big players here.

civic rampart
#

wait, provi doesn't have def?

ashen warren
#

CI does fuck-all especially since it and ichor don't stack.
and ichor adds like 25% damage to bosses with DR

#

She should, that's the point.
Yharon and polt have def.

distant gyro
#

provi does have defense, so does yharon and polter first phase

#

afaik

#

dog and scal don't; but dog doesn't give a shit about any debuffs in the first place

#

so all that's left is scal

ashen warren
#

DoG is immune to all debuffs that matter and scal is fb.

sand umbra
#

DoG doesn't give a flying fuck about debuffs lel

distant gyro
#

smh I said it before it was cool

sand umbra
#

DoG is immune to all debuffs that matter

ashen warren
#

Those are the 3 ones that you care about for ichor vs CI.

sand umbra
#

DoG is immune to all debuffs that matter

distant gyro
#

enraged

ashen warren
#

pretty sure you can like
clam him or smth

distant gyro
#

the inescapable debuff

sand umbra
#

you can clam him yeah

#

and enrage him

#

and that's fuckin' it

#

lmao

ashen warren
#

Clam time lads.

distant gyro
#

why are all enemies weak to clam again?

ashen warren
#

Because clam.

distant gyro
#

just for a clamity to be inflicted on them?

sand umbra
#

that's not taking into account that every other post-ML boss is also immune to everything you can commonly inflict at their tier

#

and then some

distant gyro
#

well, I know xeroc is probably clam-resistant

#

since boss rush bosses are immune to clam

ashen warren
#

Gets GSI
Doesn't fuckin matter

sand umbra
#

i mean even discounting the fact that GSI does garbage DPS for the point it's commonly inflictable

#

everything you fight with it is immune to it

ashen warren
#

so yes
Cursed inferno would need something more than a flat dps boost imo

#

Swapping the DR means that it becomes somewhat equal-ish.

#

Depends on the defense of the target.

#

As for contact DR, It could work but it would still probably be niche.

sand umbra
#

It'd still be niche.

#

At the end of the day, it needs something reliable to make it a reasonable alternative to Ichor.

#

Rather than Ichor just being flat-out better in every scenario for every reason.

ashen warren
#

realtalk though
Nerf ichor, add new ones in progression?
astral ichor hmm?

sand umbra
#

I'm not making a new debuff that effectively replaces both, what do you mean--

tough ruin
#

Is it impossible to make luxor + murasama to work but only after yharon?

proven tide
#

@ashen warren

#

a) is this a specific item suggestion
b) why
c) effortless

rugged mist
#

No no you don't understand, look at their username, it's an epic communism reference

ashen warren
#

yeah its basic, there isnt much to say

#

its one weapon

#

uwu comrade

devout lava
#

Sounds like a joke suggestion

#

Oh wait it is

ashen warren
#

but it would be a cool weapon

#

its a cool weapon idea

odd orchid
#

I thought weapons Suggs were a big no?

lost agate
#

@ashen warren dont do meme suggestions, that ensures you a warn

ashen warren
#

ok

zenith hazel
#

it sounds good on paper but stuff like profaned guardians and provi exist in BR which force a shift to daytime

proven tide
#

even so, having the entire thing be ominous and red

brazen bramble
#

@strong prism already been suggested and it got sent so far

proven tide
#

say the sun becomes darkened and shiny uwu

strong prism
#

Oh... I didnt know

jovial spire
#

guess who suggested it

#

anyways but yeah really needs to be a thing imo

gusty geode
#

Maybe during bosses that require daytime
There could be a special "Bloody Solar Eclipse" in the sky
And when you get warped to hell for WoF, there could still be a Blood Moon-like sphere watching you in the background
Just to make it all the more intimidating

ashen warren
#

it'll be too repetitive as a visual

queen sail
#

Sounds like a lot of work for something pretty small

jovial spire
#

solar eclipse has nothing to do with xeroc

ashen warren
#

I mean, Supreme calamitas has a bloody background, but think about king slime

hollow shell
#

I'd like having an overarching visual effect on the boss rush

#

because currently there is nothing

#

and its a bit lazy lookin

#

The effect could get more intense as you progress through the tiers
as you draw Xeroc's more prolonged and interested observation

gusty geode
#

What's supposed to be going on is the Blood Moon watching you, even during the day
Solar Eclipse is just a result of that

strong prism
#

It wasn't meant as a literal blood moon, I meant more as the red tinting and water colour. that is why i specified a visual

#

a custom background texture would just go above and beyond for it

#

basically an event

#

but yea stardust basically a visual effect that shows that shit is getting to a boiling point
Basically a thing that says "you've started something, but can you end it"

#

oh shit, my plaguebringer suggestion is at 102 nice

signal prairie
#

@sand umbra Yes, I approve of this suggestion. YES

#

Sorry about the ping but yes

sand umbra
#

👍

#

This is a rare example of something I've actually lifted out of Entropy's Edge --- I've made it a little more vague for the purposes of the sugg, but you can find the exact numbers in the doc.

#

It's just always bothered me.

#

Ichor being so much better than CI on all fronts.

placid moth
#

That said, what about Shadowflame Equipment

signal prairie
#

Ichor just need a nerf in general

placid moth
#

Is Ichor or -50% in DR better in hardmode in general

distant gyro
#

you mean marked? doesn't work for a good half-time

#

because so many enemies are immune to it

signal prairie
#

I like the suggestion because it's a ever so slight balance but slight balances like that make the game play better

placid moth
#

I used Lunic Eye for my entire summoner hardmode.

distant gyro
#

same goes for betsy's curse

#

so many enemies are immune to it that it's almost worthless

placid moth
#

It's also weird every enemy is not immune to Clamity debuff

tired haven
#

That's so the shellfishes actually damage anything

#

lel

karmic stone
terse sundial
#

It was only posted about 30 mins ago, calm down

sand umbra
#

I could also try and push not having bosses be immune to everything you can inflict at their tier to allow for some more creative approaches to fights but that'd be pushing my luck I think

bitter topaz
#

@ashen warren dungeon guardians aren't even minibosses

#

they weren't originally intended to be fought, and the bone key exists as a trophy for fighting one anyway
there's really no reason to buff them as the only time you'd ever even see them is if you intentionally skipped skeletron for some reason

ashen warren
#

Oh, right... forgot about that...

sand umbra
#

it's almost like there are things you're not supposed to fight normally

#

I swear it's like Adult Eidolon Wyrms.

ashen warren
#

Done.

sand umbra
#

People see something in the game, their first thought is "how viable is it to fight this?"

#

It's never "should I be fighting this", it's always "what do I get for fighting this".

queen sail
#

Prob bc in Terraria if you kill smth you expect to be rewarded

tired haven
#

Kill old man without transforming him in Skeletron

#

You'd be severely disappointed thinkies

balmy coyote
#

You get a cool hat if you kill the uncursed old man

tired haven
#

Well that's uncursed one
Cursed one doesn't give hat

#

(also uncursed one is clothier smhsmh)

balmy coyote
#

Old man's only purpose was to spawn a boss right on top of you, I'll give you that

#

But eh wouldnt be bad if he had something as a drop

#

Unnecessary, but not bad

fervent zealot
#

his drop should be a reusable skeletron summon HyperFailure

teal ibex
#

just gonna play devil's advocate and mention that it's totally okay for evil alternates to not be totally equalized, to me that's always been part of the fun of playing with different world evils

#

on one run i get the worm scarf to help me out early, but once i'm up to hardmode i have to work at a disadvantage without ichor for a change of pace and utilize what's available to me instead -- sometimes that can be more fun, in fact, in my experience

distant gyro
#

I think Calamity has enough things to give you for alternatives

terse sundial
#

problem is that the worm scarf can be bought by the dryad post-BoC

distant gyro
#

the only things you're sure that you won't get is the opposite effigy

#

which is good enough for me imo

teal ibex
#

and given that vamp knives are kinda murdered in current meta, nerfing ichor too hard might bring it down too far imo

#

oh that's right you can just buy worm scarf LOL

distant gyro
#

also the opposite biome mimic

#

since you can't spawn those in either

terse sundial
#

it's not a massive nerf, just switching the DR changes in rev+ between the two

sand umbra
#

basically just slightly adjusting the two to be a bit more

balanced

teal ibex
#

i keep forgetting that a ton of the stuff gets tossed around in calam

terse sundial
#

yeah

#

Calamity does that

sand umbra
#

because right now Ichor outclasses Cursed Inferno way too heavily for me to be okay with it even with the idea that Crimson stuff has differences from Corruption stuff

teal ibex
#

well yeah, i'm just saying that it's not INHERENTLY bad to have unbalanced counterparts so long as the general experience on each is interesting

#

but granted that the actual variation is kinda out the window, it's probably a mute point

terse sundial
#

DoT + Higher DR reduction overall vs -20 defense and less DR reduction sounds better to me overall, Ichor is still stronger, just not as much

teal ibex
#

you can pretty much have whatever of either evil a lot of the way down, so it's a lot more reasonable to normalize them

sand umbra
#

yeah

teal ibex
#

uhhh depending on the DoT change suggestions at least

sand umbra
#

another thing is just that CI's DoT does virtually nothing

teal ibex
#

might accidentally overfit with both LOL

#

wouldn't that be a sight to see

distant gyro
#

The only problem I have with that is that it feels like a necessary evil (no pun intended) to get ichor regardless of world types, to the point you'd get out of your way to expand the crimson island

terse sundial
#

right

sand umbra
#

6 HP/sec DoT be like

"hi i exi- oh you're picking ichor instead ok"

teal ibex
#

i mean, depends on your perspective and experience, yeah

#

i think a lot of players hinge builds on ichor just inherently because of how good it is

#

but it's absolutely within reason to shrug it off on a playthrough imo

#

but yeah, my impression doesn't mean too much for calamity because the evils are besties and love to share, so sheep360

#

normalize away

fathom cedar
#

do it

gusty geode
#

Who and why

terse sundial
#

can you not post links without perms first?

fathom cedar
#

ok

#

fabsol can u bring the sexy to me

bitter topaz
#

stop being an idiot.

civic pond
#

Yay more lag reducing

opal barn
#

@queen delta Retro and some other lighting disables afterimages

#

pretty sure

queen delta
#

I already mentioned that

opal barn
#

oh taxevasion

tired haven
#

bruh

karmic stone
#

I thought Tera was memeing and kept quiet HahaYes

hollow shell
#

No

#

Disabling it on Retro/Trippy is just fine

#

If you're having performance problems you should be switching your lighting to that anyway

bitter topaz
#

iirc they actually run worse on lower end computers, rover

hollow shell
#

Retro runs worse than Color, you're saying?

civic pond
#

i remember retro and trippy causing me lag when i used them

bitter topaz
#

yea
it makes no fucking sense

hollow shell
#

Absolute dogshit

tired haven
#

It probably is caused by that newer lightnings were actually optimised

hollow shell
#

I used to own a bad computer and Retro/Trippy would always be better

civic pond
#

i wouldn't mind a way to disable it on the other settings that dont cause me lag

tired haven
lost agate
#

Retro and trippy lag you when underground cuz bruh_face

civic pond
#

weird

queen delta
#

I might just propose that afterimages be set to on by default for all 4 lighting modes and config option can disable it

bitter topaz
#

in my experience retro/trippy always halved the framerates on the awful computer i used to use

hollow shell
#

I have a feeling the Multi-core Lighting setting has to do with this

tired haven
#

I didn't have drastical difference on either so I can't tell anything

native summit
#

why there no official server for terraria (in game)??? its a real question so answer...

hollow shell
#

Wrong channel

#

Wrong server

#

you should ask in the Terraria Discord

native summit
#

???

#

im talking about the mod

hollow shell
#

Why'd you say Terraria?

native summit
#

bc, its not another game

tired haven
#

Without any mention of mod?

native summit
#

calamity

hollow shell
#

Are you asking why there isn't an always-running Terraria world server for the Calamity Mod?

tired haven
#

I feel like you just thought it up

karmic stone
#

You don't say "Lets play Terraria with Calamity mod" you say "Let's play Calamity" taxevasion

native summit
#

--______________________________--

#

why is it no official calamity mod server existing in this poor world

hollow shell
#

Terraria worlds don't make for great always-up servers in my experience
It's easy for Minecraft because the worlds are infinite and you can do a lot with permissions and such
but for Terraria, especially Calamity, it's very playthrough-based and with the limited worldsize there isn't much you can do for having unlimited access for anyone to join at any time

native summit
#

like I said, why is it no official calamity mod server existing in this poor world?

hollow shell
#

I just told you

queen delta
#

god

hollow shell
#

ffs

native summit
#

there official server for terraria vanilla, so why not in modded

karmic stone
#

Also MP clam is hell

civic pond
#

its buggy

#

and unreliable

queen delta
#

Terraria vanilla has an official server?

native summit
#

--_--, ALOT

queen delta
#

Are you talking about Terraria server or discord server

native summit
#

wait here

karmic stone
#

I think they're talking about a Terraria server

native summit
#

SIGH here

queen delta
#

Oh thats what you mean GODLUL

hollow shell
#

Which one is the Official Terraria Server?

tired haven
#

Neither of these is official

queen delta
#

Think of it this way

#

Minecraft has a server list right?

native summit
#

yes, terraria is NOT a server what did u think D**M IT

queen sail
#

Um

queen delta
lost agate
hollow shell
#

You should have said servers, plural

queen sail
#

Might wanna calm down there

karmic stone
#

Did you censor dammit

hollow shell
#

By just saying "server", you implied there was only one official one

native summit
#

XDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDd

hollow shell
#

And in fact there is no only one official server

#

All of those are independently run

native summit
#

im laaughing to DEATH XDDDDDDDD

hollow shell
#

cool

tired haven
#

Not a mod but I think this attitude warrants a warn at least

queen delta
#

Completely unrelated, but how old are you?

native summit
#

15

civic pond
#

oh dear

dusty stirrup
#

If you keep acting like this ima have to slap a warn on you

tired haven
#

stop pretending to be like 5 years old then please

native summit
#

at the start I just asked why there are no official calamity mod server for terraria (like pedguin did)

hollow shell
#

Well, you didn't actually say Calamity
hence the initial confusion

native summit
#

yeah, i realised that

queen delta
#

I still don't know what you're talking about

native summit
#

henkhenk why

hollow shell
#

All Calamity servers atm are like, friend-n-friend playthrough servers

#

There aren't any publicly run minigame whatever servers

#

like Terraria & Minecraft

#

which is what he wants

queen delta
#

Oh now I get it

#

Thanks for the translation

tired haven
#

I doubt there would be any "official" (they are not actually official anyway) calamity mod servers in future
Due to multiplayer bugs, high effort required, low outcome and questionable replayability on post-Scal tier

queen sail
#

There’s no public modded terraria servers bc modded mp is aids

tired haven
#

Does this qualify as an answer for you?

hollow shell
#

I don't have enough experience playing public Terraria servers to know what the benefit of playing one modded would have over one that is played without mods

native summit
#

no, there are not all playtrough server, DID u play ONCE stardust, a server on terraria, like a big one

queen sail
#

Why would you

#

It’s laggy

native summit
#

yes

#

no

tired haven
#

Minigames would make more sense to be set up on vanilla anyway

native summit
#

its not laggy at all

karmic stone
#

Clam minigames like why

native summit
#

not, at all

karmic stone
#

Or any mod

native summit
#

clam?

hollow shell
#

Calamity shortening.

native summit
#

ok

queen delta
#

Plus the server would be dead

native summit
#

why

queen delta
#

Look how dead pedguin’s server is

#

And thats vanilla

tired haven
#

it won't be dead because we got one player right there OmegaFailure

native summit
#

is not dead at all???? what u mean!?!?!?

dusty stirrup
#

So uh, what positives would us devs get from making an official server and having to manage it anyway

#

Cause I don't see any

native summit
#

bc anyone did

tired haven
#

No one did*

native summit
#

yeah thx

#

sorry dont have a good english

#

im a canadian btw

#

that why

dusty stirrup
#

as am I

native summit
#

--_-- ok

queen delta
#

Anyway, ima modify the suggestion to have afterimages be on all 4 lighting modes and the config option can disable/enable afterimages for all 4

hollow shell
#

The best option I can see outta this is that we, after some major update to let off some steam or something, host some big event where we open a modded Terraria server for public joining, and we all do a playthrough

That's a good change

If there are reports of Retro/Trippy being worse than Color/White for some god forsaken reason

then that's the best option

queen delta

Reason: redcode

I thought it only lagged on better pcs fsr but if it lags in general then pain

queen sail
#

Question: which is more ass

#

Summon code or mp code

hollow shell
#

Summon code in Multiplayer.

queen delta
#

Main reason I want this change is because I'm not a fan of SCal's afterimages

civic pond
queen delta
#

They seem way too overdone

queen sail
#

I mean

#

Ig that counts

native summit
#

noooo its not laging at ALL, I played SOOO much in public server henkhenk

hollow shell
#

Well that's you

#

people have different computers & connections

native summit
#

I have a dell

#

VERY laggy

#

in general

queen delta
#

Sors has provided many good reasons to why there shouldn't be a calamity public server

hollow shell
#

Lag wasn't one of the reasons.

queen delta
#

I haven't seen you give any good reasons yet

native summit
#

and terraria server, not laggy at all, even terraria modded

queen delta
#

Besides comparing it to the vanilla counterparts

dusty stirrup
#

I'm pretty sure the general consensus about hosting an official server was that it's not a good idea, we don't have a reason to keep this conversation going now

#

Unless you were to provide good reasons, that is

hollow shell
#

(beyond just, "it won't lag I swear")

queen delta
#

spoiler alert: modded is gonna lag more than vanilla

tired haven
#

And "the other servers exist"

queen delta
#

And if you don't think lag exists in vanilla servers, then explain why all my hits take over a second to register when I do pedguin minigame battles

#

I see lag everywhere there

tired haven
#

Given how there are like 12 online players on average in top 10 servers, I really doubt calamity would have over 4 on the second week from launch

gusty geode
#

Could an official server perhaps be used for, if not multiplayer things like pvp, building contests, building collabs, etc
Maybe for open beta-testing?

queen delta
#

Over a second to register is like over 200 ping which is the equivalent of playing with someone on the other side of the world

dusty stirrup
#

mp for testing sounds kinda wack

#

Unless you're testing if stuff works on mp

hollow shell

Unless we're really hammering down and trying to get rid of MP issues

We need to get back on suggestion topic

and I didn't talk about your suggestion yet even though I wanted to

livid coral

Okay someone explain to me elsewher eyouget back to suggesting

queen sail
#

Smth smth some guy came and said “Muh big calamity multiplayer server” @livid coral

sand umbra
#

oh yeah uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
SO ABOUT THESE DEBUFFS

teal ibex
#

for the most part it's irrelevant to me wanting to or doing it, i definitely wouldn't. i just wanted to make the particular point that literally anybody could, cuz they can and will hecticSip

tired haven
#

"You call duping items a martial art?"

Also, well, personally I would expect Cursed inferno to reduce more DR because DoT is clearly weaker than defense reduction from Ichor (on top of already bigger DR reduction)

sand umbra
#

the reason CI would give a higher DR cut is because Ichor also decreases defense

#

which further flatly boosts damage per hit; something CI is not capable of doing

#

additionally, CI's DoT would still eventually fall off, leaving its higher DR cut its advantage over just forgetting it exists and only using Ichor ever

#

Ichor is fucking busted as it is right now by comparison

hollow shell
#

Hm

queen delta
#

Pissing powers unite!

teal ibex
#

i still grow weary of this suggestion in light of the support for DoT overhaul

queen sail
#

So uhhh

teal ibex
#

besides that i'm totally on board

sand umbra
#

DoT overhaul in general would be omega chad

queen sail
#

Actually nvm

teal ibex
#

it might just wind up conflicting, that's all

hollow shell
#

Make all DoTs deal health percentage damage instead of flat damage 😎

queen delta
#

How about just make cursed inferno DR like -10% but make DoT actually do good damage

queen sail
#

There is so few points in the game where player inflicted/enemy dot is useful

#

Tbh

lost agate
#

That could work sors

civic pond
#

health percentage

tired haven
#

the %hp dmg would break everything

#

But sounds fun

civic pond
#

ok honestly that sounds really great

lost agate
#

Just need to be carefully adjusted

hollow shell
#

I remember when I played SacredTools for the first time and I got inflicted with a fire debuff that actually threatened my life
and it felt great

queen delta
#

5% health per second DoT

queen sail
#

Ah yes

#

Flarium

sand umbra
#

see, % hp would break a lot of things if not very carefully balanced

queen sail
#

Or shadowflare

lost agate
#

And stuff like yharon with 2 hp bars would be less affected

tired haven
#

And it would immediatelly get like 0.01x multiplier on bosses

hollow shell
#

Flarium I think

civic pond
#

If that happened wouldn't it just scale automatically?

#

🤔

sand umbra
#

but I can definitely see it working for e.g. Cursed Inferno, God Slayer Inferno, Shred, Astral Infection

lost agate
#

Clone p1 would cry with % debuffs

fervent zealot
#

% hp is how DOTs need to work for them to ever compete with ichor

teal ibex
#

the big problem with % DoT is that it would scale throughout the whole game

sand umbra
#

which is ech

teal ibex
#

unless we just make bosses immune to it at a certain point

#

and that's already like, very unfun

sand umbra
#

^

fervent zealot
#

the solution is limiting how long it can be applied for on every case, vanilla or not

queen delta
#

Or make DoTs scale until a certain point

civic pond
#

thats true

sand umbra
#

there's a reason i've spoken against the absurd amount of debuff immunities everything in late game has

teal ibex
#

that works, but would be considerably unintuitive

sand umbra
#

there's no reason for you to be capable of inflicting debuffs if everything you could theoretically use them on is either immune to them or dies too fast for it to matter

tired haven

DoTs on worms BrainDamage

civic pond
#

can we just remove confused

hollow shell
#

Confused is great when enemies aren't immune to it

#

It's one of the best

gusty geode
#

Main reason is so you don't rely too heavily on a certain debuff ichor to get you through

civic pond
#

i mean

hollow shell
#

... problem is

sand umbra
#

worms are an exception because balancing any debuff against a worm is a giant fuck you to testers

tired haven
#

No, because that means brain of confusion rework Henk

sand umbra
#

lmao

hollow shell
#

everyfuckinthing is immune to it

civic pond
#

all i see is confusion on fighter AI

tired haven
#

Bats

civic pond
#

bats exist

#

yes

sand umbra
#

logically speaking, worms should be more susceptible to debuffs because of multiple segments, for the same reason they're more susceptible to piercing, but also

#

e.g. Abyssal Flames on every Destroyer segment is kinda

#

uh

civic pond
#

uh.

tired haven
#

Yeah

sand umbra
#

yeah.

#

So for worms, I can get it. It's a nightmare to balance.

tired haven
#

What would that be, 2k dps?

sand umbra
#

well

#

Abyssal Flames deals 125 HP/sec, according to wiki

#

Destroyer has at least 60 segments, maybe closer to 100

#

result: you don't even need to fire your weapon to break the DPS guideline twice over

hollow shell
tired haven
#

the only source of that is calamitas brew at this point, and only because no one cares about current DoT progressing

hollow shell
#

80 body, 1 head 1 tail

sand umbra
#

82 segments.

#
  • 125 HP/sec per segment.
hollow shell
#

10,250 damage per second

Oh yeah dots dont care about defense

ACTUALLY

hollow shell
#

Oh fuck

#

Making DoTs account for defense and DR

civic pond
sand umbra
#

please no

hollow shell
#

and then just make them a lot stronger

sand umbra
#

,

hollow shell
#

and the new accountance will balance it out

sand umbra
#

actually

#

hm.

lost agate
#

The only moment a debuff is good, is when it stacks

tired haven
#

Take more realistic debuff
Cursed inferno
6 hp/s, 500 dps on the destroyer

lost agate
#

See: lionfish

sand umbra
#

that's funny

civic pond
#

Do not see: daybroken

sand umbra
#

i don't recall daybreak being good

lost agate
#

If done well*

tired haven
#

It isn't

sand umbra
#

Lionfish is stacking debuffs done right.

civic pond
#

daybroken hurts my bones

tired haven
#

Because half the dps comes from non-scaling stack DoT

lost agate
#

You know why lionfish was so good on sg?

#

60 DoT per hit, regardless of what defense the slime god had

#

Always 60

sand umbra
#

I'd enjoy a more nuanced debuff system overall, to be frank.

lost agate
#

And 60 is some damn good dmg per hit

sand umbra
#

Potential accountance for defense and DR, maybe make some opponents take extra damage from certain debuffs?

tired haven
#

btw wasn't that changed which means lionfish page is now outdated

sand umbra
#

also changing debuff immunities to better reflect the boss rather than just whatever you can inflict

#

(Cryo gains immunity to cold, e.g. Provi gains immunity to fire debuffs, LC gains immunity to everything he can inflict)

lost agate
#

Can we get a cold debuff post DoG so it makes sense yharon isnt immune to it so he can chill his tits? HDcompletefailure

#

ok now i leave

sand umbra
#

why is virtually every post-ML boss immune to Exo Freeze again

#

i get SCal but why everybody else

lost agate
#

Cuz screwing with ai

sand umbra
#

ah.

fervent zealot
#

exo freeze kinda screws bosses badly in some wack ways

civic pond
#

i didn't know exo freeze existed

sand umbra
#

probably because anything it does work on dies in 2 milliseconds

Now yharon cant move

queen sail
#

Yeah it memed his movement ai

sand umbra
#

okay but like exo freeze is post-yharon anyway

#

lel

queen sail
#

So he went down like an idiot and despawned

civic pond
#

i like cosmic discharges gimmick in the fact that it buffs the player instead of inflicting bad debuff

lost agate
#

Same thing really

tired haven
#

Still, having free yharon kills past first one is kinda weird

queen sail
#

I mean ehhhh

lost agate
#

Most attacks from scal get trivialized by her not moving

queen sail
#

Killing fish ex makes him a free kill afterwards tbh

#

Bc spectral fishron nulls his regen

tired haven
#

except fish ex also gets buffed post-kill iirc

sand umbra
#

having free DoG kills past the first one is kinda weird too but that tends to happen with the absolute amalgamation of a moveset you gain post-DoG

hollow shell
#

and the fact that you don't gotta do Sentinels phase again

sand umbra
#

also that

tired haven
#

I mean, he still can eat your ass
With staying-still yharon you get free-free kill

signal prairie
#

This is so offtopic lol

lost agate
#

Not really?

tired haven
#

Is it? Given we discuss debuff immunities for further glance on DoTs

hollow shell
#

because we're talkin about changes

#

that may be made

signal prairie
#

fair point

#

I just look to see "I mean, he still can eat your ass"

hollow shell
#

DoT overhaul would be nice but it'd also require testing beyond belief and probably won't happen as a result

signal prairie
#

And I'm like "uhhhhhh?"

hollow shell
#

complete game rebalance, maybe

tired haven
#

tbh I just want an early-game item that buffs DoTs and further increases their power on bosses

hollow shell
#

That sounds like some shit

#

Sounds like pain

tired haven
#

Mayhaps

lost agate
#

DoT overhaul will probably happen when we have the same inspiration as this update to do it smugyon

tired haven
#

I don't know how additional damage DoTs are created

vocal grotto
#

Vanilla DoT ideas? Hmm...

lost agate
#

I dont think buffing dots if you have something equipped would be that hard

signal prairie
#

Vanilla DoT being good?

lost agate
#

But thats just yoyo bag all over again BrainDamage

tired haven
#

I didn't suggest postML dot buff via item upgrade tho HyperFailure
But ye fair point
actually not because stuff like themed alcohols exists

#

And counterscarf/hide of AD

lost agate
#

See, but the alcohols doesnt hold the entire thing's viability

#

Meanwhile if you dont use yoyo bag ur doomed

tired haven
#

And even then you are not because most yoyos cap out pierce anyway

#

Which is pretty curious design

lost agate
#

Double dps seems like quite the deal tho blobthonkang

tired haven
#

Curious as in "absolutely horrible but somehow didn't fall apart yet"

#

Hmm? Did you test that it actually gives double dps, or just make an assumption?
Gotta be honest, I make an assumption, due to how often hardmode yoyos hit the target and how it feels phasing through the enemy due to iframes

#

It's indeed more convenient on small targets and grants the double dps, but big bois suck up all the damage from a single yoyo already

sand umbra
#

i leave for one second to eat dinner and i come back to yoyo bag

civic pond
#

oh no

sand umbra
#

tl;dr for late-game Calamity throws and for many yo-yos in general it does indeed double DPS

#

and most of said yo-yos literally need it to stand as a weapon

tired haven
#

Well a lot of calamity weps get local frames and it works, yeah
Didn't quite think it through while typing

sand umbra
#

also it works for Red's and Valk

#

not the Terrarian though

#

because haha projectiles

#

for most yo-yos though, yes, it doubles DPS and is generally a necessity for any yo-yo related build

#

trying to stay concise with this because i've delved into this topic at length too many times already and don't wanna oversaturate it thinkies

tired haven
#

Guess I'd just go down with that point about the bag
but still, stuff like CS/symbiote/Hide of AD also exists and I don't think adding smth like that to DoTs will be too bad given they are weak as shit anyway

#

The only pain would be decreasing current calamity debuffs because they are already incredible compared to vanilla, otherwise some weps would start to shine too much

#

calamitas brew

sand umbra
#

calamitas' brew is fucking busted

#

you can get it way too early on but the point you'd normally get it

#

is the point where the damage of Abyssal Flames

#

has already dwindled in viability considerably.

tired haven
#

Because by that time you have GSI in hands, ye

sand umbra
#

mhm

#

oh and guess what

#

by the time you can commonly inflict GSI

#

everything either dies too fast, takes no appreciable damage from it,

#

or is outright immune to it

tired haven
#

Every boss past DoG is immune to it failure

#

Though tbf now we have cocktail

sand umbra
#

GSI dealing appreciable damage on anything post-ML is a good meme

tired haven
#

Just like any DoT

sand umbra
#

yep.

#

Even at the earliest possible point (Cocktail) you can inflict GSI its damage already matters literally none.

tired haven
#

The only remarkable things I know is frostburn from arrows pre-boss, crush depth from Depth Blade, daybreak from phoenix blade, and that's it ig

CI is a joke and shit like this is why

doesnt crush depth do acceptable damage against most things

uh

about that.

#

Crush Depth deals less damage the more defense the target has.

karmic stone

Crush depth deals less damage the more you progress HyperFailure

sand umbra

While this makes it stupidly strong against low-defense targets--

#

yeah uh.

tired haven
#

Frostburn is pretty decent, from arrows that is
Any hm sources of it are outdated by progression, even though still working

sand umbra
#

It falls off even faster than other debuffs.

#

Frostburn Arrows pre-boss are appreciable.

I once fished SulphSea for the abyssal amulet Pre-Boss to inflict Crush Depth while fighting EoC

If you're out of the loop, 'specific item suggestions' were disallowed a little while ago

I believe the very idea of donating only because of an item is already weird, so it really shouldn't be worth these money

hollow shell
#

You donate to support the mod. The item comes as a bonus

Yep

#

fuck, look at august alone

#

when people are constantly begging to get their, and i quote for this super cool description, epic uwu-senpai-sama-chan OC weapon of Auric Shadow Ore Soul Fragment tier with a left-click, a right-click, a middle-click, a right face button, a C-Sharp note, and a function involving rubbing your index finger on the trackpad of your laptop in the shape of a dodecahedron items in and the devs finally get overwhelmed, suddenly the blame is put on the developers for not putting enough effort in

queen delta
#

Cant blame the devs tho

#

They had quality standards

sand umbra
#

ayyy, that's my quote

proven tide
#

ayyyy

then they see other people getting their items in through actually making the extra bending over backwards from the devs to give them their items worthwhile through funding their struggles, and immediately everyone's clamouring to monetarily kiss ass for a guaranteed copy of their Totally Valid item ideas, and the problem repeats except now not only do the devs feel directly obliged to tailor to every one of these personal demands, but also get given shit by the majority of said uwu-senpai-suggesters who can't meet the money threshold for being greedy and selfish and pay-to-win enablers

#

how about you and your kin take a step back, actually look at the context and the people you're demanding you be allowed to walk all over for your own power fantasy, and [REDACTED]

#

vetus is anger at the godawful state of suggestions 2: electric boogafuckyou

#

69 of them (nice)

#

but the $50 paywall, while the masses may roll their eyes and cry "Extortion!", is fundamentally necessary for any progress to be made on the mod at all

#

over two dozen new patron items are coming from august's donors alone

#

if this kept up with the rate of investments constantly rising while the paywall remained at $20 you would see less irritable uwu-senpaiers complaining about the paywall and more veterans sighing over the stalled and stagnated development process as more of the masses decided that this version of the mod instead deserves to be called stupid for the devs selling out and progress on their specific auric shadow ore soul fragment oc weapon being so delayed there was no point to paying and the devs are just lazy assholes now

#

news flash, guess what: THEY DON'T OWE YOU ANYTHING.

#

there is zero obligation for them to even have a donator-content wall in the first place

#

when people keep thrashing around and demanding that item suggestions be brought back it offers nothing but a repeat of the aforementioned issues on two levels at once

#

respecting the decisions and processes of the developers is a thing that needs happening AAAAA

#

Why are you getting so worked up for something that’s banned

proven tide
#

because i've seen multiple people get worked up over the fact that it is banned

ashen warren
#

There was just a convo tracer.

queen sail
#

Just tell them why omega epic oc reference weapons that trivializes xeroc’s ass to become toilet paper aren’t allowed anymore

proven tide
#

iirc one guy actually left the server as soon as someone said 'hey we decided no more item suggs'

hollow saffron
#

whats going on

proven tide
#

i'm ranting about THE UNENLIGHTENED MASSES again because there was another 'why the fuck do we have to pay now >:C' guy

smoky wagon
#

why not buff the phasesaber/phaseblade instead of making an entirely new weapon

proven tide
#

that was the original idea

ashen warren
#

Anyway, well said vetus.

queen sail
#

I mean astral phasesabers sound neat but uhhhh

hollow saffron
#

well @proven tide i feel like your rant could work better in #general-talk

#

imo

queen sail
#

AD and fragment weps exist at that point

proven tide
#

that's fair

strong prism
#

I fully understand why, i'm stingy... okay astral phasesabres DO sound pretty neat

queen sail
#

No need for 7-8 kinds of the same sword

strong prism
#

XD

ashen warren
#

There would be little need unless they actually did something.

#

We already have an insane sword that's astral.

strong prism
#

true

proven tide
#

but there's not that much crossover between the two userbases and a lot more modmins likely to disagree with my personal approach to angre in #general-talk

#

so i'm gonna just stay where i'm comfy uwu

strong prism

there are lots of cool weaponss

Hi shucks TaxEvasion

lost agate

what does this have to do with suggestions

queen sail
#

Aw, shucks

#

Here we go again

strong prism
#

the whole meteor set is an early game thing, pre skeletron even

queen sail
ashen warren
#

Quite a lot actually.

#

It's about the channel as a whole and a previous conversation started by a suggestion.

lost agate
#

hm

proven tide
#

the item suggestion ban was absolutely necessary but the same kind of people who caused the item plague whiplashed into regular outcries and demands that there be some loophole in or outright removal of the ban because they're salty that the developers seek actual compensation for the input (input that, in return would have guaranteed implementation, mind)

#

let's take the example that started the rant

hollow saffron
#

so basically people are 'bribing' the devs

#

that's what you're saying

lost agate
#

well let me make this clear

hollow saffron
#

thetis has been typing for 2 minutes

proven tide

when a mod types for more than a minute it immediately activates every user's fight-or-flight responses

  1. items are an extra, we could have just made it a donator patreon with nothing else to it, but devs decided it would be ok to give items as compensation for donating a whooping 20 dollars
  2. it got bumped up to 50 because the amount of items we were getting just was too much too keep at bay
  3. it really starting to bug me that people are saying "har just pay 50 buck and get your item" ITS NOT about the damn item, and if patreon items became a bussiness then fuck me
  4. can you please shut up xultronix
hollow saffron

:(

proven tide
#

oh yay shucks is agreeing rather than assaulting sweating

hollow saffron
#

ANYWAY about the DoG portal suggestion

lost agate
#

Now can we just end this topic for once

hollow saffron
#

I think that's a good idea

#

Except that you wouldn't be able to damage him

queen sail
#

Hasn’t dog portal been suggested already

hollow saffron
#

Idk

queen sail
#

And denied due to probably being ass to code

hollow saffron
#

oof

lost agate
#

if worms exisiting are buggy on mp imagine worms teleporting

hollow saffron
#

Yeah now that I think about it, terraria isn't the GD editor

#

You can't just "change the z layer" and add "toggle triggers" to make it smooth

proven tide
#

teleporting

#

you see this is the genius

placid moth
#

Wasn't the idea just a visual change ?

lost agate
#

yeah but imagine this

proven tide
#

ya have a spooky particle effect run down his body and when each segment is covered it turns invis

hollow saffron
#

At the same time, it WOULD be visually attractive, and also show DoG's pocket universe hop ability

proven tide
#

that's it

hollow saffron
#

placid moth
#

I could really imagine it to be a recolour of the OOA portals tbh

hollow saffron
#

I also feel like the same effect should show when he spawns

proven tide
#

like the old one where he materialised out of the pink dust (iirc that's no longer a feature)

120 or so body pieces, all slowly but surely becoming invisible, one by one, in a synced way, in a tidy order, making sure doggo moves how you want
And lets not mention removing contact dmg

all of that in the span of what it takes for laser walls to start
