sinful violet
#

but yeah i noticed it was super common

ashen warren
#

also is OPTIONAL to obtain it

#

not obligatory

tired haven
#

Time to give dirt blocks 1 gold price because they are mined WAY TOO MUCH Complete_Failure

sinful violet
#

i was planning on telling someone to see if we can just lower the drop rate

bitter drift
#

you get one OK fine
you get 2 fine
1 minute later full invactory

sand umbra
#

(although, that being said, I suppose it could stand to be rarer, especially given what it is)

tired haven
#

Yeah it could be

ashen warren
#

Mrrp if it has lower than 5% Defilled Rune increases the chance

sand umbra
#

Defiled Rune is stinky

#

and has too many wacky exceptions and inclusions

ashen warren
#

like Rare Variants and Halibut Cannon

#

Defiled rune probably shouldn’t even exist

sinful violet
ashen warren
#

it exists only for Farming purpose

#

Yet most of what you want to farm with it is not affected.

queen sail
#

Defiled Rune exists for the sole purpose of cheesing boss bag money and making legendaries less meme to obtain

sinful violet
tired haven
#

Only the former now so

toxic kettle
#

tbh I'd rather want the Slurper Pole to drop more rarely

sand umbra
#

oh yeah, legendaries aren't affected by Defiled anymore

#

to prevent the omega meme bag cheese

sinful violet
#

I just don't think it's necessary at all really.

#

We have so many things to keep track of it's not worth it half the time anyway. If you're looking for something you have to check almost every time to see if it's affected or not, etc.

#

I understand the challenge part, but that's the role of the two difficulty modes.

#

It's main point is "farming" and that's tedious and not that effective half the time since people just zerg or armageddon farm bosses.

ashen warren
#

all former Legendary still are affect by DR?

sinful violet
#

No

#

If anything given the effects only a certain set of items like Legendaries or RiV should be affected.

#

God knows they'd need that to be relevant at all, and it'd be so much simpler.

sand umbra
#

and RIVs never were

#

because ❔

sinful violet
#

Because they're another special set of items ig

ashen warren
#

Why work so hard on weapons and variants of weapons that basically never get used unless you spend way too long at a particular stage of the game to farm for it?

sinful violet
#

That'd be the idea behind changing DR to affect those only.

#

Legendaries and maybe another set of items, but definitely not what it does now.

ashen warren
#

Perhaps in order to prevent treasure bag cheese, just make them direct drops

terse sundial
#

that was originally the case, but that led to even more inconsistencies

sand umbra
#

this is the simplest way to sum up RIVs not being affected by Defiled Rune

also works as a Yharim's Crystal summary ig

gusty geode
#

What if having Defiled made enemies and bosses drop a special material
That could then be crafted into an entirely unique set of items

terse sundial
#

the DR drop boost is going to have some inconsistencies

#

unless completely overhauled again

sinful violet
#

That's why I'd rather it just not be a thing personally

terse sundial
#

it's a mess

ashen warren
#

/\

sinful violet
#

It doesn't add much besides challenge, and that's the main point of the two difficulty modes and even the boss health slider.

#

And now that DM exists and is interesting, there's even less point.

gusty geode
#

Can't have inconsistencies if only one item is affected
Just a thought

ashen warren
#

There’s a boss health slider?

sinful violet
#

Yeah

#

Up to like, x10 health or something

#

It's mostly a meme though

terse sundial
#

but for the time being, legendary items and RIVs won't be apart of that boost table

sinful violet
#

We'll fix DR eventually

terse sundial
#

eventually

#

once a stable idea is formed and tested, but for now it's not really worth trying to actively sort out the inconsistencies

sinful violet
#

removal would be easiest

terse sundial
#

yes

gusty geode
#

So
Material isn't an option

sinful violet
#

No

#

That'd be ridiculous

sand umbra
#

Defiled is not a difficulty mode

sinful violet
#

To be fair that's mostly what it's used as

terse sundial
#

mhm

sinful violet
#

Arma farming is better and zerg+chaos candle statistically helps more with enemy drops

#

And zerg+candle is more consistent

sand umbra
#

Zerg-Chaos-Water-Battle

gusty geode
#

K
The material could be crafted into the existing affected items
If nothing else I imagine it'd be easier to sort out in code

sand umbra
#

"what's this? I have to actually work for my drop rate boosts?"

#

"no, I wanna sit in a box and turn on a challenge item to farm my items, farming is stinky"

terse sundial
#

the DR affected droplist source is wild, so it's not easy to sort through that

gusty geode
#

Exactly
It'd be easier to sort through a series of recipes, wouldn't it?

sand umbra
#

that's not how that works

terse sundial
#

the recipe thing isn't happening but I do like the mmorpg implications of it

gusty geode
#

No? K

hollow idol
#

Get Calamity Loot Swap mod if you want to switch drops iirc

swift bison
#

Smh advertizing, don't be like 8 months ago me

hollow idol
#

I dont own it man

#

anyways i gtg so no more on that for now

ashen warren
#

The one time I got Swordsplosion, I was a ranger.
And that is a basic summary of my history with RIVs

sinful violet
#

>8 months ago

ashen warren
#

just a couple at most actually

dusty stirrup
#

Yes fixing Defiled epic

gusty geode
#

I feel like the problem is that it's trying to avoid both items that are so good that they're supposed to be really rare
And ones that someone probably wouldn't be grinding for, like vanities, placeables, etc

#

I would say make the latter effected so it's just Legendaries and RIVs that are excluded

#

Would definitely appeal to builders
I imagine they'd be happy with less of a struggle getting Golden Furniture and Living Fire Blocks

ashen warren
#

Should make the Dryad sells Bloody Worm Food/Teratoma after defeating Hive Mind/Perforator hive?

gusty geode
#

I thought they did
Or someone did

#

Or if you mean the one you didn't fight

#

Iirc they're supposed to be more difficult to get at because Calamity at least kinda tries to follow vanilla's "one evil per world" rule

sand umbra
#

not really

#

Calamity actually does like everything in the book to make the two evils identical and available in any world

#

I am almost certain this is for the express purpose of Empyrean Knives and Scourge of the Cosmos

gusty geode
#

Fuck with the balance of literally every corner of the game for 2 items
Ok

sand umbra
#

they did it for literally just one already

#

Defiled Rune wouldn't exist otherwise

queen sail
#

Is them trying being to be identical a good thing or a bad thing

sand umbra
#

I jest, but
I've seen crazier things suggested or mentioned as "plans"

#

it's a bad thing, if you ask me

#

something I appreciate about the vanilla evils is that there are clear advantages and disadvantages to each

queen sail
#

Well

#

In vanilla sort of

terse sundial
#

ofc we have the exception of ichor byeah

queen sail
#

Because regardless crimson had more interesting content than corruption

tired haven
#

That's simply because the 1.2 design had improved since 1.0

queen sail
#

Corruption had a decent dungeon chest wep and then crimson straight up gives lifesteal

tired haven
#

(mmm, both biome chests were implemented at same time)

gusty geode
#

Iirc the idea was that Crimson was harder but gave better drops than Corruption
Risk/reward kinda thing

sand umbra
#

Corruption:

  • easier to ignore
  • inherently better vanilla evil boss (with inherently better Expert drop to boot)
  • cool surface theme
  • extremely interesting concept with tons of potential for new content

Crimson:

  • unique building materials
  • inherently better Hardmode debuff (this really shouldn't be counted but I'm counting it anyway for the purposes of the prompt)
  • cool underground theme
  • very simple concept to comprehend and thus create content for
tired haven
#

If you count ichor you must count worm scarf

queen sail
#

I’m not sure if I would count Ichor Thomas because Ichor is just a balancing meme

sand umbra
#

edited to include Expert EoW dropping the chad Worm Scarf

tired haven
#

Thing just is
Crimson in general had better hardmode while corruption had prehm
Guess which part of the game is more expanded when postML is added

sand umbra
queen sail
#

The corruption vs crimson issue was more memey in 1.2 as well

#

Because rng decided which one you got

sand umbra
#

I think Crimson has/had a better Hardmode primarily because it was introduced much later in the game

#

where the base concepts of Hardmode were already in place and there were things to work off of

tired haven
#

Kinda, but meh, can't really see much correlations that hint on that

queen sail
#

So depending on rng you could have access to the most relevant debuff in the game and a melee meta or get a generic biome

ashen warren
#

I used to think Crimson was better for Melee players and Corruption was better for Ranged/Magic

sand umbra
#

meanwhile Corruption is better near the start of the game because it's had the time to exist and be expanded upon since the beginning

#

...

yeah I don't know either I'm kinda grasping at straws

#

an attempt was made to justify Crimson having the worst pre-Hardmode experience in the universe

tired haven
#

Corruption is only good for mage and summoner (a tiny bit)
Ranger picks crimson cuz ichor ammo memery

queen sail
#

I’ve no idea why relogic felt the need to add crimson tbh

gusty geode
#

Regardless
Giving access to both for the purposes of 2 end-game items is
Questionable to say the least

tired haven
#

Alternative everything

#

Easy answer

queen sail
#

Hmmmm yes

#

Jungle alternative

sand umbra
#

for jungle you shall die

queen sail
#

After the polish out the new Golfing Class

tired haven
#

Jokes on you, swamp/bog is too popular fan idea

queen sail
#

And add Cthulhu’s Stepsister boss

sand umbra
#

they need to tell us more about miss bullet hell lady

#

all we know is that she exists and is rumored to be a Hallow boss that will come up and fuck up my work

gusty geode
#

Scary thing is
We already know a bullet hell lady don't we HyperFailure

sand umbra
#

yes
and she is much more huggable NPCStylistuwu

#

when do we get a CalHug

swift bison
#

:calhug:

sand umbra
#

:calhug:

swift bison
#

@ caspian do it

#

calglasses is the objectively worst cal emote

#

followed shortly behind by calaha

opaque sierra
queen sail
#

We have a calpat

#

If that counts

#

Holy fuck why is it so big

hallow hatch
queen sail
#

Oh and I forgot to mention that the art is by B, give them kudos

runic heath
#

goes for the cal pat
impales hand

tired haven
#

A little price for pat

ashen warren
#

A small price to pay for salvation

tulip parcel
#

What if post moonlord corruption and post moonlord crimson behaved differently

#

Corruption started doing the aforementioned “fortification” behavior so it could stagnate in peace

#

Crimson started sending scouts to other biomes trying to find the NPCs to invade

gusty geode
#

Oh hey we're back to this
Coming up with ways to make the biomes more interesting that totally aren't excuses to make them stop spreading
I'm in

#

I think there should be upgrades of some kind to Cursed Flames and Ichor if we're going there

runic heath
#

cursed ichor

hallow hatch
#

Nah

gusty geode
#

Crimson would probably be more openly connected to Cthulhu
And the Corruption, I imagine would develop past single-cell organisms (since iirc it was some kinda mechanical bacteria) into messed up versions of early multi-cellular life

ashen warren
#

Kinda like the Thorium abominations you can find there in Hardmode?

versed tundra
#

Make the ravager's projectiles despawn once they are far away from him
Some of Ravager's projectiles go extremely far, deal a lot of damage and pierce tiles, making them serious villager NPC hazards, even when they are so far away you'd think their hitboxes aren't active.
Other ways to fix that problem:

  • Make the NPCs immune to these projectiles (and other boss attacks that pierce blocks).
  • Make these projectiles not pierce tiles (could lead to cheese).
ashen warren
#

I think you're in the wrong channel

versed tundra
#

nope

sand umbra
#

you can post suggs in here first to discuss them

ashen warren
#

Oh oki

terse sundial
#

mhm

versed tundra
#

which should be the norm

ashen warren
#

I was wondering if you could, but I just kinda assumed not

terse sundial
#

It's encouraged for them to go here first

versed tundra
#

Seriously, I founght Ravager in the red circle, got a few casualties at the end

sand umbra
#

...actually, can I petition for something to be added to the description of this channel

it might be better as Discuss suggestions posted in #suggestions here. Can also be used to discuss suggestions before they are posted in #suggestions.

#

because hey, might be at least a little more effective than jamming the note in the pins somewhere

radiant meadow
#

suggest iy maaybe;

sand umbra
#

are you okay

radiant meadow
#

no

sand umbra
#

understandable

versed tundra
#

The whole reason I even built that underground rectangular bunker was to avoid NPC deaths

terse sundial
#

Mobile momentum

runic heath
#

suggest a change to the suggestions_discussion channel

radiant meadow
#

it's pc

runic heath
#

haha yes

radiant meadow
#

I'm just tired af

sand umbra
#

I see

versed tundra
#

I'd say the name should be more explicit too

runic heath
#

why does your desert look like it is made out of ice?

#

Wait that's AI isn't it

versed tundra
#

astral

#

That's to spawn Astrum A/D too

#

while in my arena

runic heath
#

yeah makes sense

#

Gotta have a desert arena for the +5 defense from scourge lore hellyes

versed tundra
runic heath
#

except scourge lore now decreases damage because it was really op so fair

sand umbra
#

Add a note to the description of #suggestions-discussion to indicate that the user may also post suggs there for feedback before posting them in #suggestions-voting.


Because people seem to misunderstand the concept of posting things in there for feedback before posting them in #suggestions-voting as if it's some sort of crime when in reality it is allowed and in fact encouraged.

ashen warren
#

Is it dissallowed to ask for old sprites- not to be put back in the game by the devs- but to download so you can put them in manually?

sand umbra
#

granted, burying the only official message that clarifies it deep in the pins backlog doesn't exactly help either, but y'know what I mean

#

and no, the irony of me posting this sugg here for feedback first is not lost on me

#

thoughts?

runic heath
#

I see no harm in adding it

#

whether or not people will actually read it is questionable but no reason not to add it

terse sundial
#

can you not

#

thanks

#

You can find most old sprites on the Calam wiki

ashen warren
#

I was gonna delete it faster, but my wifi slow. I just wanted to flash it up for a hot milisecond

terse sundial
#

I've have the calam source for the past 8 months ish, so if you need a sprite from within that time period I can get that

ashen warren
#

Ok

#

I just like the old Astral Armor colors and sprites

terse sundial
#

Old or old sprites?

ashen warren
#

The purple and yellow ones

#

What are the old-old ones?

terse sundial
#

Don't have those, again you can find sprites on the wiki

swift bison
#

User yuh has an archive of old sprites iirc

terse sundial
#

just search File: (filename here).png

ashen warren
#

Sorry, I need to think before I speak. Where can- Oh. You read my mind. Thank you

terse sundial
#

You should see old revisions of them

sand umbra
#

you can also click most sprites on the Calamity wiki to accomplish the same task

terse sundial
#

Depends on the template and table but ^

ashen warren
#

Woah... I've never seen those 2018 ones

hollow idol
#

Smh calamity wiki deleted all the removed enemy sprites

#

I had to go dig through the forum to find they even existed

ashen warren
#

Is replacing a sprite easy?

terse sundial
#

We went through a bunch of old files almost a year ago

hollow idol
#

yes

terse sundial
#

Depends on what sprite

#

Armor isn't super easy if you don't have the correct sheeting for it

hollow idol
#

Apparently anything that doesnt have a glowmask or uses multiple sheets will be your only problems bosswise

#

also wiki doesnt have spritesheets so backtracking to get them ingame doesnt work

ashen warren
hollow idol
#

But uh yeah I have most old sprites

#

Only missing a few minor things that idrc about like the original yharon weapon set

ashen warren
#

Can I DM you so we can stop cluttering this chat?

hollow idol
#

sure

void kelp
#

poll’s currently 55% for / 45% against

broken pier
#

I'm guessing that suggesting for combined potions akin to the AlchemistNPC Young Brewer mod or the Alchemist's Brews mod wouldn't be accepted due to this.
Suggestions to add new specific items will never be accepted

#

It can get quite annoying to manage and carry so many potions.

lost agate
#

Wasnt prime nerfed already?

#

Or was that not enough?

queen sail
#

What’s his rev+ hp atm

lost agate
#

I have no idea

woeful ginkgo
#

it's not really enough

lost agate
#

Lemme check

#

50k from the head, 94k combined with limbs

queen delta
#

Not nerfed enough imo

lost agate
#

Twas a lot

woeful ginkgo
#

my sprime no hit took me about 3 min and 15 second with chlorophyte gear which is just ridiculous

queen delta
#

94k is still a lot considering how small and fast he/his limbs are

lost agate
#

Well yes

#

Thats close to destroyer hp

swift wadi
#

Skeletron Prime is post Plantera prove me wrong

queen delta
#

Yeah I'm sure a lot of people can vouch that prime takes significantly longer than the other mechs

lost agate
#

Head could be lowered to 30k or smth

queen delta
#

Limbs health should be decreased a bit too

#

They're already like half the fight if not longer

woeful ginkgo
#

decreasing his hp/defense/damage reduction once again won't be too bad

lost agate
#

Im starring it cuz 90k overall hp already sounds nuts

manic yew
#

What do u guys think of moving the sentinel phase of dog so that the "it's not over yet kid" is more impactful

#

Idk if that's the intent of the fight, but rn you definitely know it isn't over the first time because the sentinels spawn

#

Might be cool to instead move them to middle of the first or second phase, so he's more of the assassin he is in the lore

lost agate
#

Sentinels spawning in p1 iirc

manic yew
#

Is this already a thing

lost agate
#

No

#

Im spitting ideas

#

Could be like theres sentinels and guardians supporting him and even so you beat him, so he goes like "fuck it im doing this myself"

left crest
#

Skeleprime needs nerf to its bulk

#

It’s a nasty and almost unfair fight anyway, even without it being the most buff mech out of all 6

marble mirage
#

yeah i tried to do a melee playthrough since i'm kinda not familiar with that class, and holy fuck is skelly prime annoying to hit without homing or without big fuck off attacks

foggy plover
#

dint prime just get nerfed tho?

lost agate
#

Thats what i said, but apparently it has a whooping 94k hp

#

Unless wiki is outdated

foggy plover
#

ive learned to appreciate prime after fighting it in masodeath and it being the easiest of the three, so im not gonna complain about prime at this point

ashen warren
#

ravager attacks are short ranged af dude

foggy plover
#

also dafuq did it have before hand then?

ashen warren
#

esp the head orange split lased

lost agate
#

Dunno

gusty geode
#

I would ask for more Nimbus Rods/other not-Sentries
But idk if that falls under subclass rules

sand umbra
#

why does everyone assume that making an upgrade to an item will make that item just automagically better

#

can I question this

hollow shell
#

It gives you a reason to obtain it, at least.

gusty geode
#

^

hollow shell
#

even if you don't use it right away

gusty geode
#

If the upgrade is good
Suddenly a weapon that a lot of people don't even acknowledge becomes important

sinful violet
#

wait yata is prime still hella long henkhenk

sand umbra
#

...all of a sudden, I think I finally understand why immediate upgrades have existed for this long

queen delta
#

yeah, mrrp

gusty geode
#

Does Pheonix Blaster count as an immediate upgrade
Idk if the recipe changed in Calamity
But in vanilla it was kinda
A beginning-of-post-Skele item
That upgraded into an end-of-post-Skele one

sinful violet
#

rev?

#

o wait rev/death doesn't matter as much now does it

queen delta
#

rev+ ye

sinful violet
#

I'd agree to be completely honest

foggy plover
#

wait how much does twins have?

sinful violet
#

This may get my boy clam crusher nerfed, but that's the only way I could manage to down prime reasonably

queen delta
#

about 82k total for twins

sinful violet
#

As melee only anyhow

queen delta
#

and theyre even easier to hit than prime, which proves my point further

sinful violet
#

That's true

#

Since arms are pretty hard to hit since you want to stay away, their health is basically bloated and head can't take damage while they're alive soo

sand umbra
#

Does Phoenix Blaster count as an immedate upgrade

#

mmmmmm

#

sorta?

#

pre-Hardmode progression is a bit wonky in definition

sinful violet
#

Technically hellstone bars are pre skele so henkhenk

#

even without reaver memes

sand umbra
#

but like if we go by the progression Calamity intends the player follow

#

then yeah

#

and Handgun as a result is completely tossed to the side in favor of Phoenix Blaster

#

which then becomes your best friend until Megashark

queen delta
#

Yeah phoenix blaster counts as an immediate upgrade cuz the soonest you can get handgun is post-skeletron, and hellstone are intended to be post skeletron, so yeah

sand umbra
#

yeah it ends up being an immediate upgrade anyway because lol Hellstone

ashen warren
#

Does anyone else find Boss rush WoF annoying when it spawns you in the center of the world?

indigo fog
#

It should spawn in one place

ashen warren
#

It doesn’t really. I think technically it doesn’t spawn in the center (outer two thirds) but it will spawn me in the midst of uncleared obsidian brick buildings

lost agate
#

Making stuff only important for an upgrade doesnt make the weapon better

#

it only degrades it to a bar of copper

sand umbra
#

^

#

honestly

ashen warren
#

Is there a better place for the Uzi though?

distant gyro
#

Move the tier of the Uzi and buff it

ashen warren
#

How would one move the tier?

distant gyro
#

vanilla overwriting and slap an extra condition in there

ashen warren
#

To another time it would make sense to be traveling in the jungle...
Post Calamitas, up the drop chance, then maybe give it a plague upgrade that turns musket balls into acid rounds...
Sorry, too specific, I know, but I thought I’d share.

waxen pike
#

good concept that weapon is forgotten as soon as its found as better items are found almost instantly

vital storm
#

Guys, I played the game recently and I would like to share a little of my suggestions to the game, but as there are many I don't know how to do it correctly so I'm posting here to help me.

1 - Increase the attributes given by the "aerelite" rogue set so that it is better than the "obisidian" set because the two are "equal" and the odisidian set can be obtained before killing the bosses with bombs
2 - Reduce the amount of defense of "Fearmonger armor" as it is a SUMMON set and all the others reduce (Even if I don't like it)
3 - Nerf the damage caused by "Brimstone Sword" a little, because compared to other equipment it is very powerful
4 - Buff the damage of "Tooth Ball" because compared to other equipment of the level is very weak (alternatives)
5 - Nerf the damage from "Dune Hopper" and increase your attack speed to better benefit from the equipment
6 - Nerf a little the total damage caused by "Prismalline", even though he has a full armor of any other type, this weapon still does more damage (assuming you have a good interpretation of how to properly launch that item)
7 - Increase the efficiency of "Abyss Blade" because compared to other items it ends up not having a good potential, my recommendation is to increase the speed of use a little
8 - Make "Crabulon" a little harder to kill, honestly this was the easiest boss I killed so far with equivalent equipment (Playing in "Death Mode").
9 - Decrease the TOTAL LIFE of Calamitas (Normal) a little in "Death Mode", even playing with a friend, we were unable to kill him after 4 fights due to the day's arrival (We were forced to fight him only in " Expert "too but I believe this is because we play badly).

Should i post one for one in #suggestions-voting with a reason to want it ? or posting here allready is good enought ?

hollow shell
#

You'd need to post these in #suggestions-voting in order to be officially recognized, but posting in this channel first is a good way to get feedback before you make the official posts

#

You should post these all separately considering we have a voting system, and people could agree with some and not others

vital storm
#

one for one here we go

hollow shell
#

But

#

Don't post them all

#

cuz you'll flood the whole channel

sand umbra
#

see if you can pick out one or two that you'd really like to see happen

hollow shell
#

Post like 3, and then wait till tomorrow to post another 3, etc

karmic stone
#

Aerospec makes up stats with the god mobility you can have with it + BoB / Frog Leg / Both
Fearmonger is all class kinda maybe e

sand umbra
#

and build a more thorough sugg based on that one concept

hollow shell
#

Yeah, or that.

sand umbra
#

that's what I do, anyway CompleteFailure

#

god knows if I tried to push every idea I had I'd be here all year

karmic stone
#

Good job on posting this here for feedback btw

sand umbra
#

oh yeah, good job on posting in here first

#

you've already done better than most people by doing so

loud cloak
#

I dunno what to say about the halibut cannon

sand umbra
#

...now that I think of it

vital storm
#

maybe because i am a discord owner i know how seek rules too

sand umbra
#

...I wonder

hallow kraken
#

Alright, problem, crabulon isn’t supposed to be difficult

sand umbra
#

would it be out of the ballpark of possibility for me to suggest maybe diversifying the effects of earlier-game "one size fits all" armors a bit more

#

e.g. Aerialite, Statigel

loud cloak
#

25-35 bullets supports true dedication for farming

sand umbra
#

there are a lot of things I don't like about the whole series of them tbf but if I have to pick something out it's the fact that in pre-Hardmode in particular, the effects from the pick-your-class-hat armors (Wulfrum, Victide, Aerialite, Statigel) are basically identical

vital storm
#

the problem is not crabulon supposed to be difficulty , but because it's basicaly just a jump mob and shot some spores

loud cloak
#

And your life’s dedication to get it

#

My suggestion:

sand umbra
#

in fact, there are literally no differences between the set bonuses for most of them past rogue stealth for rogues and sometimes an extra friend for summoners

loud cloak
#

Nerf and make easier to get

vital storm
#

Crabulon = Giant Clam

loud cloak
#

No comment

hallow kraken
#

Does obsidian not grant stealth?

vital storm
#

grant

karmic stone
#

It does

vital storm
#

and it's "Equal" aerelite

loud cloak
#

We need sandstone Armor

sand umbra
#

Obsidian grants stealth but you're operating on the assumption stealth is something you use in early-game

vital storm
#

but give lava imunite and hot blocks imunite + hotness immune

hallow kraken
#

I mean, obsidian is obtainable before aerialite

vital storm
#

idk ... Obisidian set > Aerelite Rogue set

sand umbra
#

Aerialite armor sets don't exactly have a whole lot for effects

vital storm
hallow kraken
#

Obsidian can be destroyed with bombs, so technically it’s pre-boss

loud cloak
#

Sfx set to 666

vital storm
#

difference between obisidian and aerelite in armor/damage

Obisidian give +2 damage and +1% crit
Aereleite give + 2 Armor

loud cloak
#

Molotov cocktails

vital storm
#

to me it seems "Equal"

hollow shell
#

Aer's damage is better

sand umbra
#

is it?

hollow shell
#

5% vs 8%

#

on the helmet at least

vital storm
#

just the helmet

#

i am saying about the full gear

hollow shell
#

That so?

#

Lemme check

sand umbra
hollow shell
#

Ah, that is indeed 10%

#

Yeah I guess the stats are better

vital storm
sand umbra
hollow shell
#

only thing Aer's got going for it combat-wise is the falling feathers

vital storm
hallow kraken
#

Then again, aerialite also grants a lot of set bonuses

sand umbra
#

"a lot"

vital storm
#

yes just it

#

justthe falling feathers

hallow kraken
#

Ok maybe not a lot

vital storm
#

give fall immune too

#

and Jump height

hallow kraken
#

Increase fall speed

vital storm
#

but ... has a reason to make it "necessary" ?

#

because obisidian can make BEFORE it

#

and it's "Equal"

sand umbra
#

Aerospec gives

  • fall damage immunity (the most meaningful one here)
  • increased fall speed (this is most of a hindrance than help in pre-Hardmode, if I'm gonna be blunt with you)
  • falling feathers (which only proc on hit and aren't impressive when they do)

Obsidian gives

  • immunity to fire blocks (hell yeah)
  • brief immunity to lava (again, hell yeah)
vital storm
#

and in death mode to hotnesss of hell debuff

#

idk how say it

sand umbra
#

Aerospec's most worthwhile bonus can already be accomplished by something else (the Lucky Horseshoe and the wealth of shit it upgrades into) and you honestly don't even really need the fall damage immunity in many pre-Hardmode scenarios

vital storm
#

is new content xd

#

well ... i will make these suggestions ..

#

it's a good point..

sand umbra
#

not to mention, exactly one boss later you can get Skyline Wings which kill fall damage anyway

hallow kraken
#

I don’t like that plural a lot

sand umbra
#

what plural

#

.3.

hallow kraken
#

“these suggestions”

#

Ah whatever, ignore that last sentence

sand umbra
#

either way, for now it may be best to focus on getting Aerospec buffed a bit

#

or perhaps reworked

hallow kraken
#

That sounds good

#

As for the second sug from this person, decreasing defense kinda seems unnecessary

vital storm
#

it remenber me

#

another things..

#

"Fossil armor"

sand umbra
#

fossil

hallow kraken
#

Pretty sure that’s just throwing

sand umbra
#

more like "hi and welcome to thrower, the class that the vanilla devs forgot they added"

hallow kraken
#

Calamity has disowned that class at this point

#

alright, 1 down, 8 to go!

vital storm
#

my main language is portuguese so i ever thinked " Throwing class " is " Rogue Class "

sand umbra
#

rogue is essentially Calamity's throwing class

#

although compatibility with throwing is a bit wonky

#

throwing bonuses will also boost rogue weapons, but rogue bonuses will not boost throwing weapons

hallow kraken
#

Main reason rogue exists is because relogic is lazy and hates throwing

vital storm
#

so fossil armor is "Good" ?

hollow shell
#

Rogue was originally Throwing, in Calamity too.
Then the Calamity devs learned that Throwing was going to be removed in Terraria 1.4, so they decided to make their own Throwing class and called it "Rogue"

sand umbra
#

ye

#

vanilla's throwing sets can still be useful in early-game for rogue, if you don't mind the lack of rogue stealth

vital storm
hearty plaza
#

tbh rogue stealth doesnt even exist until you get like, abyssal mirror or smth

hollow shell
#

it doesn't exist until you get Dark God's Sheath

vital storm
#

it just exist if you are exploring the map or in cave = why you need stop the see item and other things

#

after get some item ... everything is different ..

hearty plaza
#

yeah, standing still is not done a lot at all

vital storm
#

it remenber me the "Trinket of Chi"

#

someone use it ? how it's good ?

sinful violet
#

no

#

trinket of chi needs a rework henkhenk

vital storm
#

maybe if increase it to 100% "will be good"

#

because can combine with rogue stealth ...

#

but ... in boss fight ... WHY I WILL USE IT ?

#

run ---> wait 2 sec and attack ... ---> run wait 2 sec and . . . .

#

maybe it ?

foggy plover
#

why are there no things that modify rogue stuff while at full stealth (for example: adding life regen while at full)

hollow shell
#

well except stealth strikes technically

#

and stealth already has enough stat boosts, prolly

vital storm
#

stealth is very good , but not much good to kill boss on start of game ...

#

maybe reducing the max stealth it become good ?

ashen warren
#

Perhaps an accessory or armor SB that gives a chance to perform a stealth strike while at 0 stealth?

sand umbra
#

Trinket of Chi is a good meme

#

"ah yes allow me to use this boost that happens when I stand still for 2 seconds and eviscerates under its own hands if I move or attack even once"

gusty geode
#

That's a lotta quotation marks

queen delta
#

Honestly if trinket of chi buff didnt go away upon attacking, it'd be good

#

But only if the boss is "focused" on you just so you dont stand in the sidelines and shoot the boss in mp while ur friend distracts it

#

And this "focusing" thing can definitely be done cuz the same was done for adren iirc

#

The buff will only go away if you move or take damage

#

Rather than being lost when you attack

sand umbra
#

cuz the same was done for Adren iirc

no wot

queen delta
#

Actually rather than having it be lost upon taking damage, simply making the player take more damage than usual would be better

sand umbra
#

there was a planned change to make Adrenaline build much slower if the active boss wasn't targeting you in MP

queen delta
#

So the only way to lose it is by moving

sand umbra
#

but that died. it didn't work out or smth like that

queen delta
#

Oh rip

tepid root

reworking trinket of chi to be like that should be pretty easy

what the bruh even just happened

this

called I leave for 2 seconds and there's already a meme suggestion

sand umbra

ah, so nothing outta the ordinary

ashen warren
#

Hmm yes

sand umbra
#

I'll give 'em credit for calling back to that old meme, of all things, though

radiant meadow
#

@wintry wharf please read the suggestion don'ts document

#

you're not allowed to suggest specific items

indigo fog
#

so this dude is asking to be banned

radiant meadow
#

and stuff can't be post scal

#

and this is still borderline meme suggestion

strong jacinth

the 1 in a million drop chance from scal and not affecting bunnies are huge indicators of that

@next ember You need to add a reason for that

That's just more lag i'm pretty sure

sand umbra

that seems kinda specific but okay wot

hollow shell
#

No I think he wants that to happen

#

cuz yknow
"It'd be cool"

fervent citrus
#

Maybe he wants to spelunk ore without pots or smth?

#

I dunno

swift bison
#

what does that sugg even mean

#

most flamethrower particles already persist

fervent citrus
#

Yeah i found out its non-existent xD

indigo fog
#

Wait, dafuq is an eternal void?
It's not an existing item it was what they were suggesting

hollow shell
#

I assume he means like for a while

swift bison
#

at least for a second or 2

hollow shell
#

like several seconds

#

so you can like draw with lines of fire

#

and have enemies run into em

swift bison
#

sounds like an interesting specific weapon idea tbh

prime elbow
#

maybe make flamethrowers shoot out a lighting projectile that lasts for longer but shoots much less of them?

If Mr. Moomoo doesn't come back soon I'm puttin him on the big fat list

What kinda person makes arenas out of planter boxes anyway
Why not use the planter boxes
As planter boxes

frail mantle
#

cause planter boxes work as platforms and you don't need to vibe check an entire forest to make an arena with them

distant gyro
#

Obviously we see a novice living in the stone age over here, planter boxes is the real way to make an arena

frail mantle
#

planter boxes chad tbh

distant gyro
#

It doesn't make sense to stick a torch though

ashen warren
#

How the fuck are cal mod devs supposed to implement being able to put torches onto planter boxes

tepid root
#

??

frosty dagger
#

I'm not a programmer, but I'd think all you would have to do is remove the code that makes it impossible or add code from normal platforms that makes it possis

ashen warren
#

remove the code

frail mantle
tepid root
#

i dont really see why itd be hard to make torches able to be put on planter boxes

ashen warren
#

Cuz plants are supposed to be grown on them

#

Thats literally their theoretical function

swift wadi
#

Make torches count as a plant

ashen warren
#

Lol

tepid root
#

ez

swift wadi
#

And therefor be able to be "planted" in the boxes

frail mantle
#

the way you're describing it is making it sound like it's hardcoded to explode and eat your ass if you try to code them to be able to support torches

tepid root

Redcode

You can already place campfires on them

its not really complicated

A bit late but wtf is moomoo cows suggest

you can already choose whether you want to use pbs as shits to plant on or basically platforms

Is it a meme suggest

tepid root
#

its not really a meme suggest

#

just not a full one

Make dark hearts despawn when Hive Mind despawns or dies.
❔ : Hive blobs already despawn whenever HM dies/despawns, so it feels kinda weird for dark hearts not to despawn. Dark hearts are also really annoying to kill with summoner or melee, so this would be a bit more convinient.

ashen warren
#

lol

#

U have to deal with them either way during the fight

tepid root
#

dark hearts practically dont exist in the fight because youre always moving tbh

ashen warren
#

uh no when the hm is circling ur supposed to stay stationary, only move thr moment before hm dashes into u

tepid root
#

what

#

i just move right and double jump when he's about to dash lol

indigo fog
#

Make Skeletron's hands not move once Skeletron teleports

Pretty clear reason. Once you're close to Skeletron's hands, they can fly in your face once he teleports without any indication, allowing for very cheap hits.

ashen warren
#

Jump and dash exist

indigo fog
#

How was i supposed to know his hands were gonna do that

ashen warren
#

Exactly u dont thats why dont just run in a straigjt line like that

teal ibex
#

that's not the issue he's arguing

#

you can dodge anything if you get good enough and have decent enough mobility, but if something is disproportionally difficult it can still be worth changing

#

that being said, this looks like an inconvenient situation where the telegraph got kinda lost in skeletron's movements, but i'm not sure since i haven't fought new skelly

indigo fog
#

This has happened to me multiple times during my rev nohits

#

and i hate it

#

I don't see why this should stay, and me getting hit by this shouldn't be my fault

teal ibex
#

has it always happened immediately after a teleport?

indigo fog
#

yes

teal ibex
#

it would be extremely helpful if you could get a second example in a gif, tho i understand if that's too taxing

#

because at that point it could cross into potential bug territory

indigo fog
#

I can probably find one since i've been recording my nohit attempts

#

i'll see if i can find another example

teal ibex
#

ye, do that and i'll redirect it to dev server to make sure it's not unintended behavior

indigo fog
#

I couldn't find another example where I died from it, but here's another time where his arms swung after his teleport

teal ibex
#

gotchya, i can see what you mean

#

@tired haven slay the meme boss suggestion hecticPog

#

god this is the 3rd meme suggestion today

indigo fog
#

Are dark hearts annoying to kill as a summoner because they aren't targeting them?

tepid root
#

yes

indigo fog
#

they should

tepid root
#

eh

#

would be a bit annoying if summons targeted the dark hearts

#

instead of targeting hm

indigo fog
#

They should at least kill them after HM is dead

tepid root
#

m

indigo fog
#

But yeah Dark Hearts just shouldn't be there anyway

teal ibex
#

so the first example you sent is in fact unintended and should hopefully have a fix soonish, tho obv that'll only come out in the next patch 👍

frail mantle
#

Water Candles and Battle Potions exist

ashen warren
#

Saldass stop with the meme suggestions

That durability thing can be a whole mod by itself

theres already a durability mod pretty sure

i had to use slime mount to be able to kill these shits

severe burrow
#

I was thinking about an item/potion/accessory/mode item that makes all enemy/boss attack hitboxes extremely clear and obvious

#

Like, max contrast there is no way this can blend into any background obvious

tired haven

Modder's toolkit failure

severe burrow
#

Something like that, yeah

#

I'd imagine it having a bunch of miscellaneous uses and it could help people who struggle with seeing things for any reason

distant gyro
#

hitboxes showcase would visually look hideous

severe burrow
#

It would, it would.

#

This is not supposed to be pretty.

distant gyro
#

no way it could be implemented unless test item

#

in that case, what if it's slapped in LUL

#

tbh

sand umbra
#

I mean I can see the purpose of it

tired haven
#

For those who want that desperately, they can install mod
For others that will stick out as much as uganda knuckles item wink wink

sand umbra
#

there are certainly enough baffling hitboxes in the mod to justify it happening

severe burrow
#

It could probably help people with low end devices who have to play with low graphics

sand umbra
#

tbf, I like Altix' idea

#

you could absolutely slap an effect like that on lul

severe burrow
#

Apparently some attacks are invisible on low graphics if they reach far enough

distant gyro
#

no, that's just the dust limit

severe burrow
#

Well it would still help with that regardless

distant gyro
#

solution: enforce slaves and make projectiles on cala art server submission

demonic pitchfork is relevant?

Peak suggestion, new standard

A real life sausage maker is essentially a meat grinder

Sugg idea: add a ranger accessory path from pre boss to pre Scal or Yharon.

Ranger the the only class without a pre boss accessory and only has one late game accessory (elemental quiver). Adding another accessory path would make playing ranger less black and white and more diverse.

Make the transition between small and big Astrum Deus phases clearer
Currently it can be a little hard in all of the chaos to tell exactly when the boss changes phase, which could lead you to staying in the big worm's hitbox at the moment it switches back on.
A way to fix this would be to make all of the worms flash bright white at the moment they switch.
Additionally, you could add a short invulnerability phase for both the player and the worms to let the players reposition themselves.

ashen warren

I liked the name sausage maker because you make sausage out of your opponents

I actually died in boss rush to this so yea I’m down

Flange Factory

#

Seems like a good sugg

versed tundra
#

I could mention how the problems are only made worse with the addition of the multiplayer factor

#

you'd need a very coordinated team to manage switching phase at the best moment for everyone

#

so the fight usually turns into a DPS race, but that's beside the point

#

oh, I know, I know!

Let's rename the sausage maker the Frankfurker!

Appart from the rail gun if you are into that kind of laser beam stuff 😏

oh god the railgun

that's the most fun weapon ever

until it's useless which is sadly very quickly

It pierces, right?

It pierces and it has an instant travel time

That's a niche in ranger's set

plus it makes pretty lines

ashen warren

Honestly yea

versed tundra
#

Ranger is the worst class against big crowds I find

#

Well, that's the flamethrower subclass...

#

and then the launchers

#

but the piercing weapons aren't as common as with other classes

distant gyro
#

ranger is the best and worst class at the same time

#

I still think melee does worse on crowds because that's the nature of melee, even projectile melee

#

ranger kills crowds fast enough because projectile spam with lots of damage etc

#

holy arrows basically define this type of attack

hallow hatch
#

good sugg

hollow shell
#

I guess it's valid?
It's a pretty silly suggestion but he gave a reason

silly to have a boss dropping a boss

He could expand it a bit more with some lore / hierarchy stuff but w/e

it works

#

Do the other slime gods drop hearts?

hollow shell
#

No

tulip parcel
#

what is a king to a god, etc, etc

distant gyro
#

but where does the crown come from when core pops, and how does a small entity release a large entity, questions

hollow shell
#

It's why the whole situation with what is and isn't considered a boss in the fight is so weird

Neither of the big slime gods are bosses cuz that'd allow them to drop hearts so you can recover mid-fight

indigo fog
#

Having king slime in the fight seems like just another obstacle

#

I don't want that

ashen warren
#

But at this point of the game you can kill it easily

indigo fog
#

Also don't bosses drop like a lot of hearts? this would heal the player for like half their health at least

hollow shell
#

I guess the problem is
What's the point

tulip parcel
#

there isn't any real point

scenic crypt
#

You can make the minions of the two large slime gods drop more hearts instead

#

Having slime god core summon king slime is too random

That's actually much better than king slime spawning

"so why does another boss spawn vs slime god"
"Healing"

Targeting the small guys for HP makes sense, gameplay-wise
You're drawing fire away from the big guys to help yourself

briefly switching from offense to defense

#

Honestly making slime god summon a king slime seems like a waste of time

Code and gameplay wise

tulip parcel
#

what is the crown jewel anyway

queen sail
#

The accessory or the rev gimmick

#

the rev gimmick

#

like

it comes to life and shoots at you

why

So that the entire fight isn’t mostly just rope

in the words of Mr. Bean

"Magic! [snort snort]"

but what if you could make a summoner's accessory out of the crown jewel and some purified gel

#

resulting in you more or less getting that as a minion

#

when equipped in the accessory slot

queen sail
#

I mean

hollow shell
#

Could be neat

#

You'd need to provide a good-ass reason if you wanted to suggest that though

#

cuz that is specific

tulip parcel
#

wait

#

i got it

#

crown jewel + royal jelly + purified gel

#

maybe with some extra gel in there

calm onyx
#

It'd be neat to have a little crown jewel as a prehm sentry or something.

tulip parcel
#

the idea is that you purify the king slime's essence and "revive" it with the purified gel

#

while the puny little king slime is no longer of use, the crown jewel is loyal to you in his presence

keen geyser
#

it's a great idea, but it's a specific item suggestion

tulip parcel
#

well I'll try to generalize it as "using post-slime god mats, make an accessory minion based on the king slime's crown jewel"

keen geyser
#

isn't that still specific?

tulip parcel
#

is making any suggestion save for "do something at spot" specific

#

if I specify beyond "need content" am I being too specific

#

fucking hell

#

quit minimodding, please

keen geyser
#

how am I minimodding

#

I myself am not sure if it's too specific or not

#

hence why I asked

hollow shell
#

It's bordering on specific
but it'd probably be acceptable with enough reason provided

#

Why it should be post-SG, why using Crown Jewel, why a minion, etc

#

(Doesn't need to be an essay but I just wanna make sure all the bases are covered
As non-SIS as possible)

tulip parcel
#

How strong are corroslime/crimslime against the wall of flesh?

keen geyser
#

in my experience they're outclassed by herrings

tulip parcel
#

and how good are herrings against WoF

hollow idol
#

herrings fly and you get more of them

keen geyser
#

they probably deal more damage, but it's more situational

ashen warren
#

If you can get the WoF’s eye on level with a platform to make the slimes sit on it, yes. Otherwise, no.

keen geyser
#

herrings also deal with hungries in like 2 seconds

ashen warren
#

Because of the half minion slot thing

keen geyser
#

ye

tulip parcel
#

then realistically speaking, summoner doesn't get mcuh of a power boost to carry them into hardmode from slime god

ashen warren
#

Other than statigel armor ig

#

The slimes are useful for exploring though

tulip parcel
#

Additionally, there is a precedent for crown jewel being used in the crafting of other items

#

Celestial Jewel and Karasawa both use it

ashen warren
#

I guess I didn’t see the thread, what are you proposing one can craft with the Crown Jewel?

tulip parcel
#

Oh, well I was gonna suggest that you could use it with purified gel and royal jelly to create an accessory that gives you the crown jewel minion

#

you know, the thing wagging around while you fight king slime

ashen warren
#

Makes sense to me

#

Generally yes

keen geyser
#

summoner is outclassed

tulip parcel
#

It gets better as time goes on

#

but it's very weak early

ashen warren
#

Not weak as much as just hard

tulip parcel
#

what, summoner?

#

or ranged

#

ranged is good all over the place

ashen warren
#

I didn’t have much success with endgame ranged

queen sail
#

You can but, like

keen geyser
#

you can if it's got really good reasoning

tulip parcel
#

again with this shit

keen geyser
#

and isn't too specific

tulip parcel
#

from a dev

queen sail
#

It has to be general and be well supported

frail mantle
#

You can, you just can’t make it super specific

tulip parcel
#

It's bordering on specific but it'd probably be acceptable with enough reason provided Why it should be post-SG, why using Crown Jewel, why a minion, etc (Doesn't need to be an essay but I just wanna make sure all the bases are covered As non-SIS as possible)

#

what SIS means I have no idea

keen geyser
#

Specific item suggestion

tulip parcel
#

got it

ashen warren
#

Oh look it’s Yuh, the Captain Flacon main

hollow idol
#

Ok: A post DoG summon weapon because its pain with Yharon
Not ok:
“The Revengeanator”
5298 damage
20 knockback
Purple rarity
Shoots lasers in every direction that deals damage from every class

frail mantle
#

Good idea: general concept that isn’t too specific

#

Bad idea: <><><>

queen sail
#

We banned sis’s because then #suggestions-voting would be consisted of 10% legitimate suggestions to improve the mod and 90% deviantart fanfiction tier donor items

tulip parcel
#

gimme that DARK SPARK TWO babyyy

queen sail
#

And some of those were just references because hahafunny

tired haven
tulip parcel
#

but in all seriousness I'll probably think on this a bit

#

then maybe come back later with it all written out

#

it'll be like

#

"summoner is in need of a few bonuses here and there to help them along their way since they're the weakest right now, one spot they need help in is in early hardmode. one way you could do that is [hypothetical item] but really, anything other than the corro/crimslime staves would be appreciated"

hollow idol
#

Thats why my item was early hardmode until Blackhawk and shellfish were added ech

keen geyser
#

which one was that

tulip parcel
#

What you demanded it be moved, How shellfish of you

hollow idol
#

you’ll find out soon enough i-

tulip parcel
#

I think there’s a general apathy regarding summoners in calamity

#

Partly due to their weapons aiming themselves

#

If I did make a specific item suggestion regarding them I’d probably make a pikmin esque weapon where you throw them at enemies and they either return to you to be thrown again or cling to an enemy doing damage til it dies or they deal a certain amount

#

But no one like those

tired haven
#

(summoner should have been mage subclass) echcrunk

tulip parcel
#

Summoner should give bonus damage to magic you cast with it

queen sail
#

It initially was but only relogic makes the best and most consistent design choices ech

tulip parcel
#

Equal to the amount of minions you have

#

BUT

#

Each minion reserves the mana spent summoning them

#

So if you summon 4 minions for 20 mana each lets say you get +40% damage with magic weapons but you also lose 80 max mana til they’re unsummoned

#

It’s a magic subclass but you actually sacrifice mana to use it

#

Actually you know what might fit the class better as a name if that change is made

#

Warlocks are the ones who usually summon minions in fiction

#

How’s making summoner not just playing the waiting game a bad idea

tired haven
#

Because that will mean vanilla overwrite which is a tad lot too much work

hallow kraken
#

Class sugs banned

#

yes

indigo fog
tulip parcel
#

It’s not adding a new class

indigo fog
#

It's not?

tulip parcel
#

No

potent veldt
#

It is.

tulip parcel
#

It’s adding a mechanic to an existing one

potent veldt
#

With how it's worded, it is.

#

"A necromancer class" implies heavily that it's a new class.

tulip parcel
#

I’m not talking about the necromancer thing

potent veldt
#

Ah

#

That's what we were referring to

tired haven
#

Let's not go to semantics here
The amount of work and gameplay change to redo summoner class will render it as new one

tulip parcel
#

I assumed that was lampshading the warlock idea

#

Which it was

potent veldt
#

It's still a rather larger change to an already pretty set fight

#

Even if it gets through somehow, I heavily doubt it would get implemented

#

Also that entire paragraph is two sentences

tulip parcel
#

He’s just shitposting

potent veldt
#

So word yourself carefully, lad.

tired haven
#

it just won't be accepted because "high effort to implement" suggestions are usually discarded immediately
Also mhm?

potent veldt
#

Again, I was just saying to be careful.

#

And, there's no real reason to shitpost in here either.

#

So, there's little reason to shitpost.

queen sail
#

The “keep shitposting to a minimum” is server wide

potent veldt
#

Because, it's the rules?

tulip parcel
#

You think you’re the first one to go

#

“I’m gonna go shitpost here that’ll be so funny”

#

It’s not

#

That’s why the rule is there

potent veldt
#

@ashen warren You do realize there's no reason to delete anything right?

#

There's an audit log for the server admins to look at of everything you've ever said.

#

No matter what you do to delete any of it.

#

You're literally just deleting things for absolutely no reason.

tulip parcel
#

I genuinely would like summoner revised in some way though

#

As it stands they’re the most boring class

potent veldt
#

I'd like Summoner to be more interesting, but I think that isn't a prioritized thing right now

tulip parcel
#

And probably the weakest too

potent veldt
#

that is false

ashen warren
#

Well i will delete my account

tulip parcel
#

Why, is ranged still the whipping boy

potent veldt
#

Summoner is considered kinda strong in a lot of instances

queen sail
#

Chickens

potent veldt
#

@ashen warren That won't do anything either.

runic heath
#

That isn't true actually

potent veldt
#

Again, nothing will get rid of it.

queen sail
#

Also if you delete your account then uhhhhh

runic heath
#

audit log only shows you whether something has been deleted

queen sail
#

Good for you ig

runic heath
#

and afaik only applies to admin deletion of messages

tulip parcel
#

He’s just shitposting

tired haven
#

Can we just move on from the "deleted messages blablabla"?

tulip parcel
#

Again

#

Y’all keep biting

#

anyway

#

maybe one way to change summoner is change how it works with magic damage

potent veldt
#

Ah wait, I forgot bots are the only ones capable of keeping full-on chatlogs.

tulip parcel
#

like instead of the mana reservation thing

#

summoners get no damage reduction for using magic weapons, for example

potent veldt
#

That would be kinda dumb though

#

I think it should just be a more active class

#

Like, I think the Aureus bomber idea they added is cool

#

And would be a cool direction to go in

tulip parcel
#

then there need to be more weapons for them to use nontraditionally "summon a minion"

potent veldt
#

I think that's fine, but I also think that's something that needs it's own time

tulip parcel
#

like, just tossing this out there, a weapon that summons a minion that charges forward, charges back, and leaves

#

like an MvC assist

potent veldt
#

That's... Oddly specific.

tulip parcel
#

just an example

potent veldt
#

I mean

#

That basically is just what Aureus bomber is

tulip parcel
#

you "summon" something that does a thing then despawns
