Sulf Sea set's probably still in the pipeline, just gotta give the devs time
i hope we get a super endgame fishing rod
Oh lord, Exo-rod
fishing is great
~~someday I'll cook up a fishing rod that can properly fish underwater
someday~~
Devourer of Cods is already pretty strong tho
Also actually LOVE the Twinkler critters in the Astral Infection
It's a neat little addition that I REALLY dig
supreme fishing rod
I imagine it alone wouldn't carry the Underground, but a fish only caught in the Underground Astral (Quest or otherwise) would be welcomed
Astral Underground stuff is also comin along
this reminds me that I have plans for a gem genned with the Astral Infection
We've got a lot of stuff comin along, is the point.
I should go think of more Astral stuff. eventually
rover are there gonna be any rods to surpass golden rod for endgame
Devourer of Cods already surpassed Golden
thats a rod?
oh
25% more power
and 10 lines at once
seems like it may interfere with sonar with all those lines at once
Might be counter productive, but I like the idea of a vacuum that catches fish super fast, but needs to be held down, and close to the water. Probably also takes bait a bit faster
@hollow elm 1. no boss sugmas
2. read pins
3. dont crosspost this in #lore-discussion too
mm, there is indeed already Everscream and Mourning Wood
i did worst suggestion ever
mmm that looks a bit specific to me
^
that is very specific item yeah LOL
@oak meteor 1. no specific item sugmas
2. no sc sugmas
3. read. pins?????????????????
Technically there is no rule against SCal items
but there is a rule against specific items
You hit all the nails of a specific item suggestion except for a name
specific af
oh
just say "endgame fishing rod"
oof
And be sure to give a reason
^
but there is endgame fishing rod
Would making designs for SS Quest Fish and suggesting them fall under that umbrella?
The reason is the most important part
i want end end game fishing rod
why is the devourer of cods not good enough
"but there is endgame fishing rod"
"i want end end game fishing rod"

why not suggest increasing the DoC's fishing power
hmm
Why do we even need an “end endgame” fishing rod
ikr


its like a minecraft fishing rod, it pulls entities in
to be able to fish out entire worm bosses
DoC already has 75% base power, the inability to break its line, the ability to fish in lava, and 10x the fishing lines
do we really need anything else
are you opposing your authority again elon musk
i have made comedy
Enemies shouldn't have their AI changed to keep grinding in mine change my mind
Fun
What are you talking about
Suggestion that was just above the rod one
If I took something like these and suggested them as Quest Fish for the Sulphurous Sea, given the nature of them being fish for a specific biome, would that be considered too specific, or is this instance an exception?
is that better
God dammit
....its better, but
i just wanna fish more
You can get almost anything by the point you get it
Lacerator ideas:
- brief killaura after hitting enough enemies, as a nod to its original gimmick + proper justification for the fact it's used in Oracle
- lifesteal that isn't a meme
- go the Bloodsoaked Crasher route and make it Oblivion 2, now with a wider array of projectiles
Also, what about giving it another fishing line
Tbh I'd love to see a rod with fishing power so high you could catch Fishron without needing a truffle worm
Fabsol said in the Calamity Weapons Tier list podcast that he's never buffing Lacerator
That’s not how the code works though
unfortunately youre not a dev either
@oak meteor you forgot that it casts 10 lines at once
not for main, no

I suppose i'll stick these up before I head out, then. Remove the post if it violates anything, apologies if it does
I'm saying that a Lacerator buff is never gonna happen
Golden Rod is more alike all other vanilla rods than DoC is alike Golden Rod
fishing can be abused so easily because of the vanilla bug
golden rod actually sucks vro
using autopause
DoC is to Golden Rod as a wood pickaxe is to an efficiency 5 unbreaking 3 fortune 3 mending diamond pickaxe
Sitting Duck's isn't that much worse, is obtainable way easier, and most of all doesn't require the shitfest that is angler quests
nowhere close
hrmm I am questioning the specificity of including designs with that suggestion
With the vanilla fishing bug, you can have an endless amount of bobbers in the water at once
now do that with DoC
It only works in singleplayer
also why would you use exploits/bugs
I mean

It’s both specific sugma and not
Makes fishing a thousand times faster
According to wiki, it sends 10 lines
Which is like a lot better than golden fishing rod
^^^^^^^
Golden Fishing Rod only has, like
1
5% more fishing power than the other two rods at its tier
yall be poor, im fishing with 10 lines at once
Golden is a cheap reward
Every time you use the glitch you cast out two times as many lines by using autopause, holding the fishing rod in your hand, and then dropping any item using right click in the direction you would cast the fishing rod
Hotline has lava fishing capabilites
despite how much people praise Golden, Hotline has about the same fishing power and can fish in lava
Golden is only good for the achievement
But no one care s
200 IQ balancing
Terraria in a nutshell lmao
I wasn't sure if calamity devs are aware of this exploit
Sitting Duck's is locked purely behind Travelling Merchant RNG, which ain't too hard to abuse if you know what you're doing
@steel raptor we dont car e
We can’t fix every time vanilla shoots itself in the foot 
^^
Hotline is locked behind Angler just as Golden is, but I already explained how it's substantially better than Golden
I found fiberglass fishing pole pre-boss
fiberglass is eh
fiberglass ain't bad if you don't feel like travelling merchant RNG
hotline is where its at
It's better than aerospec fishing rod or whatever the name is
its underground cave RNG
You don't need hotline fishing hook if you have the post-golem fishing rod
Fiberglass is worldgen rng
or jungle crate RNG
||i don't understand devourer of cods has 10 fishing lines how is that||
code
pardon me i should be doing that LOL
thats how
devourer of cods doesn't need to be spoilered lel
smh it does to me!!!
spoiler misuse

Bottom text
🤡
How yall mfs look spoilering content from months ago
if scal had a fishing rod it would be called "scod"
regardless having that many fishing lines is absolutely nutty good it doesn't need a buff lol
@hollow saffron you can cast 20 lines in vannila
With what
more than that
with a bug, yes
if you're talking about the fishing exploit then it would take you 10x as long
it is still 10x better
even with the glitch you're mentioning
If it’s the autopause thing that’s a bug
with the glitch there's no limitations regarding the quantity of fishing lines out at once
Astral Infection cries in no quest fish either
Astral Infection has best fish weapon
is there any abyss fish
Abyss doesn't need fish
and with that bug I'm gonna no hit 10 duke fishrons at once
you can't fish in the abyss easily due to how it works
No bc abyss fish content doesn’t exist yet 
there's a reason you fish up abyss weapons in sulph sea after all
just add little brime lakes that you can fish in the abyss
Abyss most likely won't get fishing content since you absolutely have to make your own fishing pond there
and it's difficult too do that
Honestly Abyss/Mouthwash crates are probably comin some time later
they should add brime rivers in abyss
Adding liquids is really difficult you know....
they can't easily make a Brine in the Abyss
I thought you can't get the abyss weapons from fishing
^
You only get them once so don't throw them away
close enough 
the point is that abyss fishing would have to come at the expense of a core abyss mechanic: no air pockets
how the heck does my DoC buff have some voter
I wanna suggest that bc there are times you'd have to go to layer 3 in pre hm just for the abyss weapon you want 
just don't die, easy
you have no light for layer 3 in pre hm
yeah i feel like a post slime-god option to fish abyss weapons would be... nice, but probably not a likely addition
you do get your air cut for tp'ing in iirc
or at least post skeletron
or be a man and dig air pockets like i did in abyss
i mean, it's still unlimited and a fully functioning exploit, but it's considered
Digging air pockets means suffering 1 hp per ingame tick 
DoC
Not worth
U wot
You’re punished for breathing air
I bet you could get brine lakes if you like
Made a Honey-like block
And made it so you could catch stuff if a rod came into contact with one of those blocks
Idk if that would work
And fishing rods don’t function unless you’re out of water
Squid that’d probably require some wackass coding
Wait
Better, more possible idea
even if you can make it work it objectively goes against the idea of abyss
idk why the wiki states that you can go fishing in the abyss even though you can't
You kinda can
the abyss is intended to be a time-based area that you cannot stay in because you have no options to breathe
Fish on the outside walls tbh
Just gonna be at 100 hp all the time
you can dig the abyss gravel to one side and temporarily leave it to breathe
Swinging a bug net (or specially made similar item) while in the Abyss would have a chance to give you a random item from a unique drop pool
That's fishing in the Abyss
I've done that before they buffed the breathing time of abyssal diving suit
No thats just doing the spongebob
i mean yes you can use exploitative strategy to gain breath time in the abyss
but it's intended to not give you air pockets/breathing points so fishing in there has to have some fundamental difference
like i could see it only as a lake opening at the bottom
so it requires you to survive for that long as a prerequisite and conquer the abyss
otherwise it just completely juxtaposes what the abyss is supposed to be
all they need now is fishing on the planetoids
I still like my idea
And to prevent just running around swinging the net and getting free stuff
Could have a few enemies that have a chance to spawn when you swing it
Catching something that isn't exactly friendly
The Astral Infestation
Might go make a doc on this
the point is that abyss fishing would have to come at the expense of a core abyss mechanic: no air pockets
ideally, abyss fishing would involve a line that can
actually fish in water
but I haven't actually dabbled in that yet and have no idea how well it'd work out 
make little brim lakes in the abyss that alloe you to fish in them
have portal gun ready
why on earth would you create deathtraps for fishing
the point of fishing is that you're supposed to have a lot of time and be patient to get loot
the solution to an in-water fishing system would be something like crab pots in stardew imo
just set down a trap of some sort and come back later
congrats, fish
crafted with some level of bait and like, some bars or smth
So uhhhh
I like that actually
luiafk fish harvester but not inherently broken
hands-off fishing stations should be restrictive and objectively worse than hands-on fishing since you get the loot without any time investment on your part really
crabpots sound like a really good idea
afaik luiafk fish harvester just gives you stuff at a reasonably good pace and kinda kills fishing as a whole
except it will be justvlike stardew valley and i foget to collect and fill up with bait
Honestly
If fishing with a net doesn't work out I'd take that instead
fish harvester is annoying because it gets completely filled with nonstacking junk like rockfish and then bitches endlessly about "FULL HARVESTER AT RANDOM ASS COORDINATES"
i think slots is the wrong approach, imo it should be that each one catches one thing and you'd have to make multiple
uhhh think of it like shadow orbs
just do the same as stardew valley and make it one slot that you right click on to collect and fill with bait
except you place them and wait until later to break them and get the loot
every full day and not using cosmologht you get something like crate
each of them will definitely have something inside and should have increased chances of getting rare drops so that they're actually, y'know, worth bothering with
i just like the idea of being able to revisit locations after setting up like 10 traps and getting a rare abyss fish from one of them basically, it should be restrictive but still interesting/somewhat engaging
you could just craft a bunch and place them in ponds that you find while exploring and stumble upon them again later for a free bit of loot -- they could even have more than one catch in them, i don't really care about the specifics of what their yield is
i am trying to type a crab pot suggestion but make it follow rules
and it would ultimately server as a means of catching fish in the abyss without some really whacky workarounds or creating murder pockets
what counts as to speifc
i can suggest it just give me like 5 minutes lol
if it gets shot down for being too specific with how i word it then i'm sure it just won't fly in general
ok
you have a color which means you have an automatic 40% higher chance of it being sent
and the best color at that 
purple is the best
Imo specific items should be allowed if the idea as a whole hasn't been done before
Like
Suggestion for a new yoyo or something bad
Something actually truly unique like this good
"no specsuggs" exists to kill 5 second thoughtless items and "bascially my exo OC with stupid fucking recipe" sugs
people that suggested their omega cool OC weapons always thought they were unique
their 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 dodecahedrons, if I may
Getting the abyss weapons isn’t hard actually
as I've looked through suggestions past over and over again, I've found that there are a good number of them that are just
has auric tesla always had a bar form
bad
For level 3 you only need 3 points in light level to see, which you can get from Siren
If you get unlucky world generation it sometimes is
okay but like if you end up in layer 3
even with the light level there are several enemies in layer 3 that can kill you in 1-3 hits
you're almost guaranteed to have a Colossal Squid exist
and completely ruin your day

All you need to get into level 4 pre-Hardmode is to grind jellyfish for a Jellyfish necklace, hope to god you get the Strange orb or fish it up, and craft a shine potion
I even had arctic diving gear and it was still very challenging to go down there just for my herring staff
and this was me as a hardcore character
I mean Summoner inherently suffers at every turn-- /shot
Maybe specific items could be filtered via the existing approval system
So only ones that are actually unique are allowed in
Specific sugmas were....
something.
maybe they should
there were a select few that were good --- and I've found them in the past
but a lot of them were pretty bruh
I agree
The 103847282nd Exogun suggestion is stupid and should stay dead
But sometimes an actual good and unique idea could be held back by being specific
<><><><><>
wow what a cool not particularly specific suggestion gosh jeez wow
you can already get specific items implemented if you donate $20 or more in the Calamity Mod Patreon
idk if the amount ever changed
Calamity fishing content (the BEST. CONTENT.)
i mean, you can still "make specific item suggestions"
just that in the case of it being a shitty suggestion (90% probability), we have rights to smite it 
objectively correct without question
Devourer of Cods is still the best fucking thing
Lemme just add this weapon that charges up, explodes on contact which causes a black hole of antimatter that breaks the 4th wall to directly evaluate your iq and depending on it cause dmg
And even if it wasnt these complex ass shit, it just collides with the plans we had already
Calamity events have not been implemented yet either
@steel raptor it's now 50$
fishing is best
in fact, it's been 50$ ever since september
Like
Add these specific bow
Bow was planned already
And its like "tf do i do with this"
now just need 90 votes and crabpots become thing
Discord bad with emotes


Sure
for some reason my last message for me was in red
(also is discord taking a shit or is it me?)
@lost agate if things go like that then tell me
was that normal?
It’s taking a shit
Is Exo Gun planned?

Discord is never not taking a shit
inb4 "use Onyxia damn you"
exo gun is planned as much as there's exo gun suggestions
why was one of my messages in red text
it wasn't sent
i’m half memeing and half not because apparently an auric tier yoyo was already in the works but “Muh yoyo isn’t coming here fast enough”
oh ok
Tbh I bet you could make a full mod out of this whole fishing cage thing
Maybe variants that work on land
For catching stuff like smaller rare critters
Luiafk
But balanced
Luiafk
How long have we been discussing this auto fisher by now
long time
Idk i just came here
This was the message I was trying to say: "Fab doesn't want too many patreon items so he raised the amount to $50
"
literally luiafk
and hooray! now you have things
like stardew valley
at the cost of more bait
its not like bait is costly
Could have it so you only get good stuff if you give it really good bait
And maybe you could run the risk of it breaking in use
You come back to find it trashed and have to spend materials repairing it
well, consider with these things
fishing pole power would be completely and utterly irrelevant
...let me finish
it would take like a day toccatch something
i said let me fucking finish
you finshed

anywho as I was saying
with these things, fishing pole power would be completely and utterly irrelevant for their purposes
the quality of the catches would be solely dependent on the power of the bait itself --- which on its own wouldn't get you very much in the way of good loot
there would be ways to upgrade the things themselves to start having inherent fishing power, allowing them to catch better loot
the earliest ones would have none
additionally, these things would NOT be able to catch some rare items such as the Rockfish or Reaver Shark, or other items balanced around requiring staying at that location with a fishing pole and 268976254 Master Bait to catch
congrats, basic idea for fish-and-forget item done correctly
not being able to catch rare items kills their purpose tho
at least imo
otherwise agree
at the very least, they'd have a significantly lower chance
well, if they're easy to mass produce for sure
compared to actually spending time with a fishing rod at the location
if they're more costly i think it's totally reasonable to have a similar pool
since they do still cost time
fair
especially if they're 1-time use, which is my headcanon
that was the core of my idea. literally a placeable shadow orb that you wait a while for
come back, hit it with a hammer, and bam
headcanon
you got a laserfish
I don’t think that word means what you think it means hectique
since then you actually have to put in the effort to keep making the stuff and getting more stuff
maybe fishing rod s can be used only quest fish while crab pots cant
i absolutely do know what the word means and am surprised this usage seems wrong to you
Headcanon just means what's right/wrong to the person saying it
vaguely yes, in typical usage it's in relation to a story
however over time it's become more of a blanket interpretive statement
Hence the “canon” part
^
misconception ok Kirbys part, I usually hear it in the story sense
so it makes sense why he assumed your use of it was wrong
Imo they shouldn't necessarily be one-use
But they should have a chance to break after every use
You would have to pay some to repair the busted husk left behind (not as much as making an entirely new one tho)
And maybe to spice things up, a random enemy could be spawned when you try to pick it up; the thing that showed up and trashed the thing to begin with
that being said, my usage relays the theoretical placed fishing station as a character to be defined by different characteristics, i.e. being 1 time use
it is not the typical usage but it is nonetheless valid and applicable
i mean, i think one-use, durability, rng breaking, or permanent are all equally valid and would all balance loot differently
luckily, that's not our choice 
maybe you can make better crabpots that can catch more fish and more dura
either way tho i gotta scoot and hope the placeable fishing discussion remains warm and welcoming like the fish in the sea 🎣

yes
god that emote is perfect for this moly holy 
ye 
:happyfish:
So
Would there be any loot you could only get by using this placeable thing?
I imagine some special loot would include stuff like
Fish that are too elusive to catch for whatever reason
Like maybe insects or ones with especially good cloaking (could be used as bait and crafted into a large haul of Cloaking Glands respectively)
alright, I'm about to redo my Abyss Redistribution of content from a while ago
just use achelmist npc
||Hot take: speed runs, no-hits and other challenges only performed by people who have played the game for a long time should not have any influence on the balance||
but alch npc sells all potions
I know
Big Abyss Redistribution Suggestion (Modified from a long time ago)
- Devilfish and Chaotic Puffer in Layers 3: Both drop Chaotic ore, this is the layer with Chaotic Ore. Easy enough to understand.
- Luminous Corvinas in Layer 3: This is a cool enemy and it's a shame that it's only in one layer, and it makes layer 3 more of a threat.
- Colossal Squids and Mirage Jellies in Layer 4: Both have high enough stats to be suitable enemies in this layer (Colossal Squid is literally more powerful than the Reaper Shark, so they should be here anyways).
But Krant, now there are too many enemies in Layer 3: Ok, this is true. If the devs consider it an issue then move the Cuttlefish, Toxic Minnow or Viperfish (Any collection of these 3 would be fine) into layer 1-2 only so that Layer 3 isn't so packed.
thoughts and comments?
the crabpots are slowing down
@teal ibex Alternatively, Starter Bag
okay but like how the fuck does a merchant just happen to have a bug net 
bug net and crabpots
wouldn't it make more sense to starter bag it or have it be craftable
The Merchant is supposed to just sell misc items
why does@he have one
makes sense to just put it in the starter bag tbh
either way
Bug Net is literally necessary to start off fishing, and it can be annoying to gather up the stuff you need to get the Merchant to move in at times
More importantly for challenge runs you just sit there WAITING
(50 silver isn't exactly pocket change at the start of the game, mind you)
Case in point: Hectic is currently losing his mind just waiting for the merchant so he can continue lmao
plus you can easyily make a fishing rod the first 5 minutes of a world but you wont have bait
chaining suggestions is a nono
also wouldn't re-adding older sprites for bosses that've gotten resprites count as re-adding removed content
sort of?
@viscid grotto Suggestions should be able to stand on their own, no referencing other separate ones
Just edit your original suggestion
i cant belive crabpots might get enough votes
@viscid grotto Add a reason
And can you not chain suggestions
@oak meteor wha...?
Looks like he fixed the chain
Hm, for anyone who hasn’t put a star on my suggestion is it because you don’t see a point in it or is it because there’s something wrong (if the latter option, please explain why)
well i dont understand it
theres already a good amount of enemy therep
crab pots and starterbag bug net almost at 90 votes
all thanks to hectique
giving us the best fishing content
It’s not even halfway
closer than it was before
Yeah, not seeing where you got that 90
japanses is hard
Well in any case, I like the idea a lot
thank you
I don’t know how I feel about abyss enemy redistribution, my biggest issue is more or less with the design of these enemies rather than anything related to the suggestion
Tbh mirage jellies aren’t even that dangerous
design as in gameplay
Though if you want that vital jelly then 
Right
||New Sulph Sea pet||
Smol
i saw
@warm tinsel
You usually tell someone competent with Wiki Contrib+
I'll add that there right now
bruh wiki nerd
Nice, why the ping tho xD
so you know for next time
Whenever you breathe in suggs there's a 95% chance you'll get 🏓
alright, I added ||Auric Tesla Bars|| to both the crafting materials* and Bars pages and I changed the Shadowspec bars recipe
thank you
@cosmic void whats the blue fish?
oh cool
Don't question how you are able to hook it
i am guessing the yellow one is like a fish made of sulphite
it can
if you actually use the yo-yo sets defined in vanilla that none of the Calamity yo-yos use

who knows, really
The hell were they saying last time then
yo-yo range can be changed
yo-yo top speed can be changed (although above a certain point with vanilla yo-yo code it'll break)
yo-yo airtime can be changed
Oh right
all three of these things are defined by sets that already exist in vanilla source
I'm still not sure when the Calamity yo-yos are getting fixed
I assure you, if I were able to, I'd fix them myself
I actually had a discussion with Ozz about this a little while back (mainly due to EE's vanilla yo-yo changes starting to directly affect Calamity yo-yos are a result of this)
I really should try and get back with him about that, but I don't wanna bother him
trust me, I'd love for this to be fixed as much as the next guy, but I don't make the rules
I don't wanna bother him though and we already had a discussion on this before 
if memory serves correct, ozz has notifs off here except for specific pings
He only comes here when he wants to tbh
probably not much then because this channel somehow tends to devolve into hellfire more often than not 
hahaues
anywho, tl;dr the resources are there and realistically it wouldn't take too long
it's just a question of who's going to do it and when
@hearty yew Unsure of if it's already happening or just isn't a priority, but are the yoyos planned on being fixed?
Secret? 
this was the last thing that made it into 1.4.2.108
go ben
their categorization is fixed, but we haven't fixed their stats or behavior yet
that was going to happen but we decided we didn't want to test it and delay the update
so we just made the category fix
So Oracle's range can easily be changed and stuff?
it's likely the stat and behavior fixes will happen in the next few days, or i'll do em over holiday break
yes
i will handle oracle personally
i made that mess i'll fix it
This is like, nice
epic
@queen delta for future ref, you can just @ me in CD or testing or something. doesn't need to be here
nice
I pinged here because it was mainly thomas that wanted to know

also yeah the recent suggestion saying "fix oracle"
yeah dw like i said, i'll fix it myself
fucking embed issues
w/e

i hate my phone
i'm trying to just link the gif not embed it and get warned for memeing
would it ever be possible for the Calamity mod to make Ore-Crawlers for other mods?
it's been suggested before for thorium. i think the main concern is that calamity haters would go ballistic over such a change so most peeps are weary about it
but don't quote me on that
that still seems a little silly
i think that's a subconcious concern anyone who makes calamity has when considering cross mod content
who cares about calamity haters
given the rather.. volatile attitudes of most calamity haters
it’s not like the changes will affect them
yeah, I was thinking Opal and Onyx crawlers since Calamity added the new fish which drops Opal and Onyx if the Thorium mod is enabled
byeah
i mean, imposing on other mods' designs is an actual valid complaint
calamity bad™️ or something 
which is a rare thing for them, really
but nonetheless as simple as the idea is it's a little bit more murky to actually come to fruition
if only we could get along instead of have a civil war whenever one tries to support the other
Like I can accept the fact that Calamity can make both
and
decisions sometimes
Thorium and Calamity are both great in their own right
nobody's perfect
this includes vanilla, so praising it like the holy grail is dumb as fuck
Like
One reason i from someone in thorium why they praise vanilla is because “it’s the game we all loved as a kid”
And well uhhhh
Yknow you can love a game and still realize it’s not that good, right
who
Vanilla is still fun despite its issues
the worst part about thorium and to some extend other modded communities that enjoy bashing calamity is that their heads are crammed too far up their asses for them to even consider changing their minds
anyhow, this conversation is better suited for #other-mod-talk or #general-talk
it's literally like talking to a wall
I consider DMC 4 a good game and agree that the enemy design is awful and annoying
Kirby Star Allies is one of the best Kirby games imo and I still agree that the game was extremely mediocre on launch
That’s how you truly love a game
Terraria has made questionable design choices, but is it still fun to fuck around in?
Yes
Hell some people I know say that they don’t get any enjoyment out of the game unless they do multiplayer
we should probably shuffle over to gentalk now this is a convo i'd like to continue having
fishing crab bots ad bug net thing over half way nice
What if there was a little sound queue for when chaos state wore off?
Or has that been suggested?
I don't think that's been suggested
I guess it'd be useful if you use RoD or Normality a ton
but the debuff only lasts a few seconds
yeah conceptually i like the idea but i assume it'd get kinda annoying to hear all the time
I support bug net memes
yES THANK YOU PLEASE.
more fish
throwable bug net when. i hate accidentally killing stuff with summons
modded bug net sounds super smelly though
you're probably right yeah 
bug net is good
no more early game golden bunny tryin' to flex on me
1 cobweb 1 stick make net yes good
@mellow bay I was ab to say that too lmao
Ceaseless void bugnet that sucks all bugs into it
@twilit swan Ark of the Ancients requires Excalibur
(but that has its own upgrade line, ending with Ark of the Cosmos)
Right
Ye but it's easy to make and the Elemental Excalibur just seems like too far of a jump. I mean, it has higher base damage than the exoblade
Indeed.
However, it also has Greatsword of Blah in the recipe, which is obtained not long before Elemental Excalibur
There are quite a few weapons in Calamity which utilize long-past weapons
Exo-weapons being prime examples
Dev weapons too
Red Sun requires frickin Forsaken Saber and Mandible Blade
Aren't they also making an upgraded version of the terra blade in journey's end? Are you guys going to adjust the entire gameplay to the new content?
True that
There's going to be a new strongest sword but I don't know if it's confirmed a part of the Terra Blade line
They said that it will be
Aight
More powerful than the Meowmere
We'll find a way to work it in
Journey's end is also delayed to 2020 btw, which kinda sucks
the new terra blade upgrade will probably become a part of exoblade
i mean when they were still being quiet in october it was already destined to be delayed
It'd be a bit annoying having to craft 2 Terra Blades for Exoblade
1 for Terratomere and 1 for the new sword
We'll see how it goes.
Why was gold even added? are you guys planning to just leave that alone? I mean, it seems cool, but it's only place in the mod is a minigame that's irrelevant to gameplay
*golf
terratomere could just have a replacement mat instead of terrablade and maybe be thematically adjusted
or not, it's not a huge deal if there's a third terra style sword i guess 
Just throwing this out there, why aren't there more terra-tier and elemental-tier weapons in calamity mod? ever thought of terra armor?
wdym "more"?
We already have one, two, or more weapons for each class in those tiers
there's kind of a lot already
it's arguably one of the most fleshed out tiers, pretty solid options all around
Like armors and more variety in weapons
again, there's already tons of weapon choices and they're all pretty solid
More armors yes maybe.
More weapons prolly aren't needed.
Calamity could use more armors.
true that
armors would be interesting but would be a little bloat-y at the terra tier since there's a lot of options around then what with chloro, spectre, shroomite, turtle, beetle, and ataxia
Perhaps yeah
and tiki i think
yep
it's hard to remember them all they're all just shoved in LOL
Ataxia and Beetle are technically a tier above, and Chloro and Turtle are a tier below
but they're still quite close
Armors would be great though
not wrong, but i think there's a reasonable amount of people that don't bother with terra stuff until after golem
or at least used to, i think he's pretty spicy and warranting it now
Beetle armor is kinda weak, i honestly stick with turtle armor. That's why i personally think that terra armor would be great
I always get Terra pre-Plant
Or, did, when you still could
Now I get it as soon as it's available
cuz otherwise it ain't as stronge
Is there an upgrade to the elemental shiv?
there isn't, no
not yet
ngl as cute as it would be to have DoG, Yharon, and SCal shivs
it would basically be bloat content
unless they just weren't shivs and launched projectiles everywhere like crazy
DoG shiv would be fitting as just a mini DoG head
Running around biting at people
LOL ok i'm sold
.
Devourer of Demigods
baby sword nibbles the world
That would be amazing - like a tiny apotheosis head or something?
I am legally obligated to make this happen now
i am overusing this reaction meme and i don't even care
literally the best weapon
Just throwing this out there: you guys should make several upgrades to the destroyer emblem with flat-out boosts to damage stats and maybe even others as well, with no other bonuses except straight-forward stat increases
It would just increase damage, more than the other accessories
An alternate accessory for those who want outright damage boost without the effects of crit on themselves (like the Shark Tooth Necklace)
Reaper Tooth Necklace's and Dimensional Soul Artifact's big damage increases are interesting, in that they also put you at risk
All the final class accessories (Elemental Gauntlet, Ethereal Talisman) do grant pretty considerable damage boosts too
This would be a lesser increase, but without the risk - a happy medium of sorts...
yknow what
It actually could be interesting
to have an accessory which is like +18% or +20% increased damage with no other effects, and it's a crafting dead-end
So you'd have to decide whether you can sacrifice your other accessories with a bunch of other effects for the raw damage
it would be a nice low-effort/speedrun style acc
but i don't see why people would take the middle ground when most would rather spec into heavy damage or defensive consistency
late-game Destroyer Emblem upgrade
higher damage and crit chance but it is used for absolutely nothing
and has no other effects to compare it with the billions of other things that do have 1598135 other effects
honestly all these late-game accessories with 5 billion effects get to me for some reason
it'd be nice to have some that are just. very specific in their purpose
and don't try to be a one-size-fits-all for whatever their general field is
i feel like that's the crisis of expanding content as far as calamity does
you either get boring and make numbers just get bigger or you start to make things get bigger and whackier conceptually
increased specificity seems like a cool way to encourage diversity in builds
Maybe a way to dye or change the colour of weapons
(My personal suggestion doc is full of changes to make those unfocused hundred-effect accessories have more focused, intelligent, and interesting effects)
I also have some ideas for some of these unfocused accs
i think the ideal state of calamity would be to have those but also have particular setups for build-seekers
not finalized by any means, but they're there
The Item Customizer mod allows you to do that, Walcc
like a 25% crit acc for peeps who want wicked crits
assuming that doesn't already stack into one of the existing accs LOL
imagine if double crits existed
an accessory that's just a flat 25% crit rate that doesn't build into anything would be epic ngl
crit-focused acc
doesn't give any effects elsewhere, but significantly boosts crit effectiveness
(useful for weapons with low base damage but extreme fire rate)
id personally also love to see more defensive accs bc even though the lads cannon build is recommended, sometimes facetanking is fun
the few useful defensive accs late-game are very
unfocused
they try to just do everything at once and end up being less than desirable because of it
lads cannon 👀
and it's usually because many of the boosts simply can't apply for practical purposes at the point they're obtained
/stares Amalgam down the barrel
well, another reason why is rather contentious
no fun allowed in calamity
which is calamity's soft and hardcaps
It'd be cool to see more npcs in the game, maybe a dryad queen for defeating Plantera?
speccing directly into one build gets hit a bit hard by them in a lot of cases
More NPCs are comin in the future
nice
Yharim, (probably) Calamitas
isn't Draedon coming too?
aint yharim the bad guy
I like building stylised houses for each of them so that'll be cool
DR is a mechanic utilized extensively by Calamity
except it's a meme for the player without putting everything into it and there simply aren't enough accs to let you do so
i wish i could make houses
Yharim is indeed the bad guy
mainly because, again, a lot of accessories try to do everything
and they suffer because of it
then why wiuld he be a npc
bruh
I may even be underestimating
ngl if DR were a viable build tue melee could probably make it to the end of the game instead of dying horribly to post-darksun yharon
I'd enjoy the various late-game accessories being retooled and given more specific functions
is there gonna besomethibg bigger and more powerful than him so he becomes friends or somethjng
just realised Rover is a dev
erm
i understand dark elve which as she is out of his control and owns her gratidude to you
Every boss buffed after ML
Jesus
@shell trellis what would this add?
also, buffing deus, a more janky and irritating boss, immediately after ml
don’t you hate it when KS is as threatening as a reaper shark

did someone say master mode

It'd be cool to have a weapon for each class that you can get really early on that can be upgraded like 15 times over the playthrough.
then they could all combine at the end
into a SUPER WEAPON
iirc shadows of abaddon has a similar concept with their relics
Night's Edge all the way to the Exoblade fills that role.
fair enough
and also expo weapons yes
I like how a fair few exo-weapons only use certain items because they're for the same (sub)class
bruh the crab pots and bug net in starter might get 90 votes
and?
cool
lmoa expo weapons @void kelp
I’m not paying attention to autocorrect ;A;
I don't see why it matters
if they do they do, but I doubt the Crab Pots will be implemented (At least for a while
now i'm just imagining marker weapons
That sug about post ml buffs, that was a thing once actually. It got removed and replaced with Prepare to die and cry and then death and rev
planned to have their own trophies and all
actually i just read too much on the forum post
bruh
YuH knows the whole history of this mod
you talking to me?
@shell trellis
nvm, it’s the good ol’ “disappear after making a suggestion”
and he was never heard from again
It happens frustratingly often...
rovers profile pic looks super familiar
It shouldn't, I made it myself :P
I've always wondered, actually
Space background is relatively common tho
ink lad with orange cyclops fanged mask
this is very related to suggs, yes
mmm
everything is related to suggs if you stretch it far enough
anywho back to
wait what are we discussing again
Aureus bailed
And nothing can be related to suggestions if i stretch it far enough
Not the first time he did, too
are we talking about why giga-blanket-effect accessories are bruh or why buffing everything post-ML is a bad idea, I don't remember

I got my foot in the door by having Fab look at some of my enemy AI change suggestions
Now I just gotta work my way up to the accessory focus suggestions
Uh not here
the enemy designs are significantly less balance-related than items
so while it does flesh out the content past ai reusing it's also a lot easier to address than reworking the Meta™
Yeah a lot of enemies don't have as much thought put into them as items get
because
it's not really needed as much
but hopefully that'll change in the near future
how many pets are in the game?
Why is it Juvenile Eidolon Wyrm and not, like
Adolescent Eidolon Wyrm
So we don’t abbreviate it to JEW

Juvenile is the correct term for a non-matured organism
That is an unfortunate abbreviation tho
not the channel for it regardless
fine
Did SCal get a damage buff?
not since the hit counter was killed i think
Ye
She hits like a truck since that change but doesn't seem any stronger apart from that
@mellow bay this was already stated (probably because im too lazy to check) but to put it simply
just use yoyo bag
Maxed melee speed can let yoyos reach the brothers in that position, though not in corner ones
seeing people actually enjoying fishing is strange, i may need to try fishing for myself
Guess it's various loot that keeps peeps interested + new rods catch eye a lot
Devourer of Cods intensifies
If scal dropped rod it should be could scod
6 more votes and crab pots may get added
killing scal with fish when
@neon flame cultist is reworked in calamity, but on rev+
@neon flame Did you actually try cultist in latest updates?
oooof the fabled triple ping
it's best to properly experiment with a feature before suggesting alterations
Sorry
so that you can best make your points
@twilit swan specific item suggestion

also @twilit swan @shell trellis add a reason to your suggestion
that's already been addressed above, no need to repeat
Why hasn’t it been deleted???
@granite yacht just wait till day
i guess you can, it's pretty boring though
especially when rain starts in the middle of a day, it also makes the background much darker
You can craft a potion of omniscience to see the boss and projectiles too
do hunter potions highlight them?
no
Hunter only highlights enemies, omniscience does everything
according to the wiki it requires an alchemy table which is post-skeletron unless there's a crafting recipe for it i'm not aware of
oh fuck right it does
it'll help for AS at least 
but i think giving hunter potions the ability to highlight them wouldn't be a bad idea
but ye, sand not being visible is kinda annoying
The problem is, sand blasts would have to become enemies to be highlighted with hunter
I think he means making hunter potion highlight hostile projectiles
Mmm doubt
but that effect was intentionally only given to pot of omniscience
so it's more of an upgrade
@hollow saffron Dude it is literally called a suggestions discussion. I can make one or two suggestions. Even if the developers already have a plan for future updates, they might be willing to squeeze one or two small ideas into the next update
well, there’s also rules
Let me guess, specific/non-specific argue?
it's not really super specific
but I also don't see the need for an excalibur upgrade just for elemental excalibur
we need elemental night's edge if anything 
It doesn't really matter. We should work together to make better suggestions for the next update and then the developers can decide whether or not it's worth adding. It's called a suggestions discussion for a reason
I don’t think there’s a need for an Excalibur upgrade at all because so many other swords fit the niche
We need a elemental dirt block
You want crappy ideas put into a mod, then check out the extra material added to Alchemist NPC. I mean, WTF is Ugandan Knuckles for? Why?
okay, there's no reason to start downplaying other mods
Pancake's suggestion is fine in terms of specificify
but I want him to correct his last sentence cuz Excalibur is used in AotA's recipe (and is in Terratomere/Exoblade's tree)
aaah
the last sentence is talking about influx waver though
oh pff
although maybe they're suggesting to swap excalibur for influx waver?
I think they're saying that a stepping stone for elexcalibur should be an influx upgrade in a sense
so it goes: influx > suggested item > elemental excal
Im thinking about a fusion between the amalgam and the core of the blood god (and maybe the sponge)
Acessory slot reason
Way too many effects
30 line tooltip momentous
The Sponge is already pushing it on its own
fargo's souls moment
sounds like a balancing nightmare
Even if just the two
Accessory slot reason isn't reason enough on its own
because that's just a balancing factor that you're stating
?
I think a new miniboss in the underworld would be nice, like some sort of servant for some other dragon-like boss...
They are separate accessories because they're different and have enough effects on their own.
That would be cool
that’s omega fear
Dunno where theyd fit into the current fight
Omega laudanum xD
all they'd be is cheap hits or ineffectual
life seekers were already annoying as hell in the clone fight
Which is why they should be annoying as supreme hell in the supreme fight :p
Just kidding, that would be terrible
They don't need to behave the same
True
Maybe spawned by the sepulcher (or by breaking a heart)
does this count as a specific item suggestion?
idk but i don't think this is a valid suggestion anyways
what's the point if yharon soul fragments exist
That's a pretty substanceless suggestion
Why not just ask that more Yharon Soul Fragment items be added
Add material
Why: idk
are they not connected enough already?
Honestly, I feel like the Supreme Life Seekers should be spawned when the Brothers phase are active

It’s just that the Brothers phase is the easiest
Some parts of the phase didn’t really require movement to begin with
also life seekers post 8% sounds kinda scary
the best i could see them being (regarding to the claws) is another post-YP1 material to supplement darksun frags but eh darksun already exist so like 
uh world gen is a pain to work with iirc
You can kill a brother and let the other one on low hp to get life or adrenaline
modifying vanilla world gen is
