https://imgur.com/a/f3k01xv I wanna scream at how long this took to set up
here's your damn Obsidian Skin GIF you wanted like 15 minutes ago
Thank you Tommy
how the fuck?!
Lethal Lava
this doesn't work for me
it only does that if you have Lethal Lava on or you're in death Mode
also check your configs
I'm already like 15 minutes behind what I was doing at this point
I'm not making another GIF to explain this
e
@frail mantle both are on
wait that got changed didn't it
Can you send a gif of Obsidian Skin doing nothing?
no because idk how to do gifs xD (yap i'm pure trash)
I use Gyazo
OBS?
OBS.
OBS is a recording software
I have no idea if my suggestion was well received or not :/
well anyway i'm gonna the post something on suggestion to change the slime god extra summon who is just a waist of a buff post WoF
I'd say that why not suggest to move dark spark back
but because it's a patron item and it's supposed to be like that it's a no-go
dog lasers are so shit
@proud isle they're more meant to check and make sure you haven't gotten too close
the first phase is meant to be more endurance, with the idea being that something will hit you eventually
the first phase isn't meant to kill you unless you mess up, I think
they're still way too weak imo
it's like if the plants phase 2 plantera summoned had like 75% less range and did less damage
Also yeah wouldn't it make more sense to nerf Dark Spark or buff those two weapons, rather than moving them? @rugged dew
they don't really do much close range either
first phase is meant to be pitiful
i think theres a lot of solutions, but im talking specifically about all the weapons that require darksun fragments to make
it's not really how they don't do shit and more how they do so much less than anything else in the first phase
All of them are underpowered compared to Dark Spark?
Sounds like Dark Spark should be nerfed then, right?
dark sun vs those two mage weapons are just an example i gave but there are melee and range weapons that are outclassed by weapons before them as well

really?
wew
isnt galileo true melee tho
and honestly yeah dark spark really should get nerfed, it destroys yharon bc it does crazy damage and removes all of the minion flares he spawns
idk i never did melee in calamity
Galileo Gladius is not true melee, it fires homing projectiles.
i just remember thinking as soon as i made the face melter "this sucks, why would anyone use this over other mage weapons"
o
In fact, none of the Exo Gladius components, nor is Exo Gladius itself, true melee.
@ashen warren DPS numbers are one thing
but how does it actually fare against DoG?
Lul I killed DoG with this xd
Alright
You could include a DoG kill time in your sugg too
DPS numbers can be unhelpful if you're just testing on an immobile Super Dummy
also im just curious rover, because before the auric eidolic wail upgrade it seemed like the wail was meant to be a mage halibut cannon
okay, i remember using it in hardmode and it killing everything up to polterghast
But DoG charges to me, and gladius deals good damage, and it has very good homing
nah, i just ran in a circle, they arent that fast
i do agree i probably shouldnt have had it in hardmode tho, but since its available i wanted to know if it was meant to be like the halibut
.. hol up
An Adult Wyrm at that?
(I forgot the Juvenile Wyrms had their weapons locked behind Polter)
i was really bored and counter scarfed through anything scary
but i mean it takes about the same amount of time to kill an adult wyrm as it does to farm for a halibut
Wow okay then
That there is the philosophy of you deserving Wail early if you bothered to grind down an Adult
oh well
how long was it?
gallileo is busted, bruh
aight
You could then say DoG instead of "a single target"
just so other people or devs don't dismiss it as Super Dummy testing
(which suggs like these usually are)
okay
additionally, galileo is good far beyond its post-polter tier
namely, for the moon/darksun events
Yeah it dealing that much DPS means it's out-DPSing Last Mourning, a true melee weapon and the best true melee weapon both at that tier and up until Yharon 2 with the hilariously short-ranged Murasama.
for this events you already have galaxia or burning sky
Burning Sky is a Yharon 1 drop, Galaxia needs Draedon's Forge which is the big reason you do those events
oh
ye, galileo is good for post-DoG events
but crescent moon is better against ice queens and pumpkings
ye, fair enough
darksun tho
like, i found galileo on par with nadir and cosmic shiv
note: for darksun
not for yharon, which is arguably more important
can't you dodge the Aureus Spawns before they get aggressive by Valor ramming them
prepare to implode if you try doing that iirc
also tbh i never found them to be too hard to deal with, most of the time they were relatively easy to deal with as long as i baited them into slamming into the ground
like I've never done a test with that myself
but I have every reason to believe ramming them with anything would end horribly for all parties involved
well i know that baiting 'em works, cause they don't have too good turning speed
'tis what happens when dashes n' bashes barely give i-frames and the thing being rammed can explode at the touch of a speck of dust

imagine inferior version of these 

But yeah, as of current bashes are destruction for everyone
there's a very easy way to dodge aureus spawns tho
commit slingshot
ok
good for you
though if the aureus spawn are made slower they are literally just gonna be ravager missiles
ngl, aureus spawns need to be reworked imo
@worn bay The buff & nerf are determined by you holding a summon or other-class weapon
Wouldn't make much sense to decrease ranged or melee damage if you have a summon weapon in your hand
i do kinda like the idea of nonsummon damage being nerfed when you have a summon active
I think he’s talking about making it so that the nerf of summoner damage when having another class’ weapon in your inventory should instead apply to other class weapons when you have a summon activated Rover.
Well s'not inventory, it's your hand
but yes, the system could be reworked to be what he is suggesting
It wouldn't be a simple flipple is what I'm saying
Wait really? Summoner damage isn’t nerfed if you have a different class weapon in your inventory?
It's only when you're holding em
Wow
I’m so dumb lol
Byeah, if the suggestion was reworked to add instead of flip I would like the suggestion more
Bc otherwise you would just have summoner attacking with whatever they want
@ashen warren You wanna narrow that down to just post-ML?
sentry addition is difficult
because they're either balanced for only having one, and OP with multiple (i.e spikecrag)
or balanced for multiple and force you to use sentry adding gear/accs
Also you may wanna reword your reason to be a little less subclass-run esque
Alright
Wouldn't make much sense to decrease ranged or melee damage if you have a summon weapon in your hand
I hate to break it to you but if you're holding a summon weapon, you're not using a sword or a gun

Indeed
Should “QoL Calamity Mod” be added to the Don’ts list, btw? It’s surprisingly not on there.
sweet
I feel like it’s been suggested at least three times, maybe more with different phrasing.
If it gets sugg'd again I'll Don't it
Chill, thx
tbf brothers in the SCal battle are pretty irrelevant
Yeah
go up and down slowly and you win automatically
I thought it was anticlimactic
scal is enough already

also smol arena
would have to be implemented in a good way
Also SCal already does charge attacks
Ye but her brothers don't. They don't even really feel like separate entities
Didn't they have this ability back then? Back when Scal did not have the arena box??
wouldn't charging Brothers be really fuck since hahaues two dashing bosses in the same small area
Brothers were always pretty much just turrets in the SCal fight iirc

even before she had an arena and bullet hells
Oh i see..
I feel like the fight gets easier when she summons her brothers
why change it when it's in your favor tbh iirc charging brothers has been suggested and denied before
also having them charge at you in such a small area would still be annoying as shit, even if the Brothers are easy now
Didn't someone true melee scal
yes
How TF do you kill brothers anyways
Ein did
it took 90 minutes
Just abuse symbiote?
so less than viable
@molten marsh Is there anything that could be suggested?
I see a reason, but not a suggestion
@molten marsh Have you already visited #help-advice-read-pins ?
also how is Celestus a punishing weapon
And yeah there actually isn't any suggestion here, lol
I didn't find celestus weak against Bros
Rogue scal in general is meh but not horrible
I would like if there was an exo tier dagger actually
Imagine cosmic kunai combined with shattered sun
That'd be neat
any mods here, id like to propose a change to my suggestion
rather than just replacing the pink beam of the dark spark with a red one, i think maybe redoing all 6 of them would be better. a lot of the other colors arent vibrant enough to feel like a rainbow
It's a bit late for that I think
oh has it already been delivered
120 people starred it under the pretense of turning the pink one red
I can have that included as a note when I deliver it
i think more people starred it under the pretense of making it look more like a rainbow
that the other colors can be touched up too
the current orange looks sickly and the other colors could use some touch ups too
@ link from aquasurfer
anyways, thanks for hearing me out
np

booooo
i agree honestly
ok maybe you do have a point
wink
should get more evidence to back up your case
kill times, dps
that sorta stuff
test it on skeletron prime or brimstone elemental
It was not worth an hour grind because cryogen wouldn’t drop an icebreaker
exactly
probably the latter because it's a single target
though depending on it's purpose the dps won't reflect it
its not worth the grind and its not a good reward for doing revengeance mode
At least its good for crowd control
Imo the brothers phase in the scal fight definitely needs a buff. You can literally stand still for most of the phase it’s dumb
just jump whenever the brothers come in line with you and occasionally dodge the brimstone dart that might go near you
totality breakers should remove fire-type debuff immunity from anything it hits, like lionfish with venom
they're already a downgrade from one of their components, the spent fuel cell, and then they inflict one of the least helpful debuffs in the game
Could you provide more of a reason for that, Woozy? Why people should be able to do that?
why would you use RIVs in recipes which you just need the regular versions for
the regular versions are much easier to get
I remember when i got carnage i thought i would be able to make an even cooler terra blade and i was so disappointed when i couldn't and it ended up going into a chest to never be used again, i completely agree
Because say you get carnage or any other weapon that could besides giving you a nice weapon, It can also reward you with not needing to get the reqular variant if you dont have it already
Well the RIVs are already superior versions
it generally isnt fun to have to get the "same weapon" (effectively) twice
You can file it down to just being a variant therefore being able to be used as a substitute ala corruption/crimson
^^
i agree with you woozy
I could see this argument working for like
RIVs of items that are dropped by the same enemy
You getting the RIV instead of the normal drop (which you gotta craft something with later) is annoying, if you're unlucky enough for that to happen
Same argument doesn't really apply for RIVs of crafted items
This idea came up when I got carnage and had
not have crafted the bloody edge yet
I wanted true bloody edge and had to go through the process of getting the bloody edge while I already had it but Rare
Also My other sugg was to add more stuff to the pre hm goblin army its so ass other than goblin tinkerer
I mean it would be kinda weird for something like regenerator to go into Asgard's valor when the item has none of its effects.
also wouldn't this be able to ruin some crafting trees?
prehm goblin army does have plasma rod
anyone else agrees that rogue is unconsistent against supreme brothers
Did you see what we pinged you for
click the @ button in the top right corner of your screen
not being able to craft with them is kinda intentional
hmm yea i see now
buff eye of magnus buff kelvin reeeeeeee
lol
Eye of Magnus is ass
yea just going buff this item because i said so reeeee will get you exactly three miles into nowhere
I fondly recall EoM being fucking absurdly powerful and rightly so
Yeah why does Eye of Magnus need a buff?
i would suggest a kc resprite but its not worth of a good suggestion
It really doesn't
eye of magnus
I'll just say that
sure
infinite mana
but its raare as fuck
the healing is useless
the damage is shit
it's a support weapon
It's not for damage
It's a utility weapon
you're not meant to use it for damage
healing is useless
oh boy, more nohit balancing
because I'm not already sick of this

it heals 1 hp

fires twice per second
its like using golden gun as main wep
It's not going to have vamp knives level of healing
obviously
but wouldnt hurt to make it 1.5/2
if ur on death mode vs skeletron prime and he hits u for 80 damage
also, Eye of Magnus fires 3 times per second
where are you getting twice per second
estimation
eye of magnus also bypasses the lifesteal cooldown
so you're always gaining health
that's 3 HP per second (don't even factor in "if you hit" because EoM bolts have homing capabilities)
and tell me if it feels underwhelming
you're not meant to use it as your only weapon 
not to mention 75 mana per second 
it's not meant to be used exclusively by itself though
you're meant to have some main weapon for damage and occasionally use EoM for some healing and mana
for net healing tho ur gonna have to be using it for over 15 seconds
without being hit more
but is it intended to be used to fully restore an entire hit's worth of health?
use it conjunction with something else that boosts health regen like the cadence potion
the extra 2-3HP a second makes a huge difference
Provide killtimes without rage or adrenaline and show the gear and potions you used to prove it needs a buff
no argument about kelvin from me. it got put in a chest right after i crafted it and realized it sux
isn't Kevin decent
it requires
we kinda killed Kelvin tbh
for me, my current weapons were more effective
a partial grind to make
on purpose
and it is poo
Frost key has a 20% drop chance from cryogen
yeah i was just gonna say
so it's not that bad
KC fell to the curse of "people that don't shut the fuck up about weapons being good, thus making the testers go lol ok and nerf it to shit"
byeah
Kelvin cat is 1/2 only main examples of nerfing a weapon so much it falls out of the meta
other one being Amidias Trident
halibut cannon btw CDCXXXDXD
or at least nerf it to the point where it's not nearly as good as it was before
is that a jerma reference
the other is The Evil Weapon, yes
both of them were ass to balance
yo
what about Halimeme
dumb question cos of encryption n that
but is it possible to decompile the calamity files n change some settings around
or nah
decompling calamity's source isn't allowed
^
halibut is a meme tribute item and doesn't really need any changes tbh
wait
Flexible source dab
so could I do it on the downlow theoretically or naw
imagine having source deliveries
not saying I will
if you do, I will have to ban you
just theoretically
you could
heyehyehey
but I wouldn't
I mean, technically rules only forbid posting source code
eyyyy
we've banned in the past for people decompiling source
lemme see if I can find one example
why dont you guys want people to do that?
if done for personal use tho
you can just ask me for the bools
because stealing content

and not to be a peepeepoopoo
Thomas if you need them, ask
oh yeah i didnt think about that
just to tweak some things for personal use
cause then you get shit like that one time iirc Exodus literally yoinked Deus code
oh yeah I have more than just Ozz in terms of dev contacts
@west gale liscencing reasons, plus people fucking with their own versions of the mod and bringing it here like dumb dumbs
I can also hand them out if you really need it
I'm a smart person, I assure you
br

I'm literally in your server and talk quite frequently
"y dont my versin work????? i edited the source btw" you'd see that a lot if it were allowed
I am also in your server and lurk
smh Thomas forgetting Ben exists :///
I spent most of today just looking at every ModContent thing in EE and fixing most of them
give me a break
okay
Kelvin Cat is highly likely to not get touched for the foreseeable future, mainly due to how annoying of a weapon it is to balance
why is it so annoying? whats special about it?
many projectiles meme iirc
allow the projectiles to Crit as rogue damage
also lowkey Apoth type weapons
bahahaha
the mini stars not critting is intentional
I know
is it true damage
on the crystals
or just non-type
cos if its non-type high def enemies = bad
maybe a talk with Random Weeb to rework the weapon
not just damage but changing the homing projectiles and whatnot
nah keep the homing projectiles
just make the kelvin catalyst a bit more
frequent on the rotations
like
a 3 stacked bananarang
when a suggestion gets 120 stars, how long does it take before the suggestor gets a response from the mods/devs?
eventually™️

suggestions delivery isn't automated, so it just happens when someone in dev decides to take the suggestions with over 120 stars and yeet them over to the dev server
sometimes it takes maybe a day, sometimes it takes a while
yeah, i gathered that much, but does the rest of it happen solely amongst the devs? or do i get a response
or do i just monitor its reactions for a 👍 or a 🚫
uhhhh
rest of it is up to the devs ye
Sometimes you'll get a response
mods/admins if it's a server suggestion 
We haven't been very consistent with that, lol
sometimes it happens

thats cool, just curious
for whatever reason im very passionate about making the dark spark look really pretty
cause i have a thing for prisms and rainbows
some people are pretty passionate about suggestions
Can confirm.
i, for one, am probably unnecessarily passionate about them 
@peak oyster It doesn't break the specific item rule, but it does break the subclass run rule.
Nadir v. SCal isn't pretty because post-Yharon is one of the biggest power spikes in the game
beaten solely by the notorious power spike that is immediately post-DoG
stream gouge
never
sad
what exactly is the intended use for that emote
talking about stream gouge
lol
it's the ⭐ for another server
The Enchanted Axe should be nerfed. It is very powerful, and its homing ability is, at least in my opinion, a bit too good. Anyone agree?
@narrow lintel Can you provide compared killtimes that say that Enchanted Axe is off-tier in terms of balance
Or just killtimes
Well it can kill Slime God in Expert in under 30 seconds so
Update the stream Gouge DOGEEe
Just a sec
how does it compare to the other options at the tier?
It's actually 46 seconds, I redid it and that's how fast I did it
I've got some footage that I'm just uploading
Sorry for the ping but I scrolled up to talk about my suggestions. And Christmas hook is worse techincally, 17 pull velocity vs 18. Yes spooky is better, but unless your playing summoner your not usually going to consider the pumpkin moon at that stage of the game and many players ignore it @hollow shell ^^ Plus it'd wouldn't be fun to do one moon event for one item thats actually pretty fricking hard on progression for something like a grappling hook.
Fair enough I guess
Usually whenever I do runs I just do everything I can because I want to
Fair, but for like people playing defiled and like deathmode pumpkin moon is brutal on tier
Which is right after plant
tbh I like doing the moons to get the banners to make the moons post dog easier
But there's no reason to do it post-plant you could just do it pre-dog and it would be insanely easy if you only want to get the banners

@ashen warren you shouldn’t put multiple ideas in a single suggestion
the ! got removed for the first half, not the second
more like
has Ravager ever summoned arena blocks
when you make a suggestion, you shouldn’t have multiple suggestions in one
that's SCal's thing
Ye, I understand
bc people might not necessarily agree w one part but still vote for the suggestion for the other
i think we can expect draedon to force an arena in some capacity
you can suggest it separately
and certainly for yharim
Ok
@digital saddle iirc calamity used to have that feature, but it caused a stupid amount of lag
i thought i remembered there being something about life fruit in calamity before
that does take living shards however
but wiki didnt say anything about it so i assumed i just imagined it
why single out ravager out of all pre-scal bosses?
you can argue for every boss being a joke when you can farm them
not to mention that ravager's purpose is literally to drop crafting materials. it's literally supposed to be farmed
wiki doesn’t have old update information tbh
ok i have the footage for beating the slime god fast with the enchanted axe
Beating Slime God in 46 seconds with pre-Slime God gear.
Yes I know that I have hardmode gear, but I'm not using any of it. And all of my accesories and armor are before this boss.
@narrow lintel I am scared of whatever the hell is in the backround of your vidieo
oops
uhh
ohhhh i thought my mic was unplugged
let me put some nice music in there lol
yeah it was i was discussing how good the enchanted axe was
yeah, i was saying that it should be nerfed
The Enchanted Axe should be nerfed. It is very powerful, and its homing ability is, at least in my opinion, a bit too good. Anyone agree?
@narrow lintel up a bunch
it's fine it makes sense it was posted like 15 mins ago
That loadout is absolute ech
Yet you still have 62 defense
Can you yoink a Stat Meter and show us what it says
I mean that video looks normal to me
i know that my loadout is awful i'm not good enough yet to use all menacing i still use warding
He has yharim's stimulents, ironskin, and dryad's blessing, so 62 defense is reasonable.
i have 96% rogue
44% rogue crit
5 armor penetration
and I also was using the Imp staff if that matters
i have 100% rogue with all my potions
(Are those stats with or without Stealth)
with stealth
m, less helpful.
but granted it's kinda hard to measure your base stats without stealth
@digital saddle pre mech life fruit isn't happening
Calamity used to do it and it caused a considerable amount of lag
Ayy I mentioned that! why does it cause so much lag?
probably because there's already a lot of post WoF generation
I honestly liked it better when you didn't recover stealth when moving
Oh. ... Oh, thank god.
yeah sorry about that
i remember a time when that wasn't the case
that was a bad time
Aren't flippers craftable already
no iirc they're a common drop by some Sulphur Sea enemy
Ah, I was close
Moray Eel, 1/20
@loud parcel Water Chests are not the only way to obtain them
You can farm Moray Eels and get em decently quickly
oh
still though
if you don't go to the ocean first, it only spawns in the first layer of the abyss
and i generally visit only visit the ocean in late prehardmode
but fair point
You ought to at least mention it in your sugg
cuz atm you say Water Chests are the only way
Water chests are also in planetoids
okay and he's gone
ding dong ditcher
@north owl That's... a bug.
Wow.
That's probably one of the weirdest bugs I've ever heard. Here, I'll fix it right now.
Tezuka's or aPotato's?
Tez
who the fuck did I @ ?
Sorry

Not being able to place a bed doesn't seem very weird to me, lol
it does to me
having one random bed be different from all the others
that sounds like bug central
Well cuz Plague Plate's is vertical
Could probably just kill the sugg now
i'll give the guy the opportunity to see the response and delete it himself
Here,
@hollow shell ill show u here in a minute
potato you are absolutely correct
none of the reaver set bonuses have any sort of cd
not sure what weapon you're using to make this happen
what's up tezuka
wait, that a bug? Oof, sorry, I assume I should delete the suggestion or?
yeah, delete the sugg
I appreciate you bringing it up, but that's a bug, lol
Sometimes it's not obvious
done, sorry, thought it was something intentional
f
Yeah I remember doing the same thing at one point
🇫
With candles and not being able to right click to break them
there's probably tons of tiny inconsistencies in calamity tiles
i learned a lot about tile code last night while fixing the worldgen errors
if I am feeling particularly motivated I might go through it at some point
..... uh oh
@mental violet you know it inflicts several other stronger debuffs right
Yeah. But stacking a bunch of debuffs on a target is fun and effective.
hol up
Plus shadowflame is a decent debuff for it to loose from the curse.
Are you just looking on the wiki or are you looking in-game
Sorta both.
The in game one doesn't list them.
So I noticed it wasn't adding any purple to my targets and checked the wiki.
I wanted to mention that NPCs have a debuff limit but I was wondering if we got rid of that
Is my version of the mod out of date or something? Was this already fixed?
I think that we may not have gotten rid of that
(I do gotta update the wiki)
not all debuffs can be combined with the fix we did to try and alleviate buff slot caps. especially vanilla debuffs.
Ok that's a much more valid reason.
So, your sugg is actually already a thing
technically
but because funny hahas, it may or may not work
This is also the case for like all Exo weapons iirc?
cuz they inflict like 8 debuffs
and the cap is like 3 or 4
Could this be fixed by making the First Shadowflame inflict it's own, special version of the debuff?
thats why elemental mix exists right
Not the base game one?
oh lol
I don't know debuff code well enough to offer full explanations
(Ozza seems to)
(I have no idea what he's talking about
)
Is there a reason why Onyx Drill mount can't mine Hellstone until Hardmode? (this is for a possible suggestion)
Prolly so it's not a cakewalk to obtain, actually gotta go through the effort of mining it like a normal player when you're intended to
can someone turn down the volume of soma prime
Same reason why the HM Ores can't be mined until a mech is downed
and Chloro till Plantera's downed
And Matthew, funnily enough
This has been suggested several times before
but has never reached the required amount of stars
Which tells me that you really gotta make a banger of a reason to really convince people to do it
or the sugg will just fail like it always does
what makes mining hm ores hard
It works the same way other "easier" mining methods work
@mental violet nucleogenesis has the first Shadowflame bool
It inflicts Shadowflame
you have to wait a little while after first available way to gather the ore to gather it easier
Test it with Fab's new debuff thingy on bosses
Kinda like bombs and hellstone
@loud parcel Moray Eels can drop Flippers
@radiant meadow Are you sure? I tried it in game and there was no purple on my targets.
yeah i've been told
@bronze mauve Boss suggestions aren't allowed
Is there a particle affect limit?
Check the debuff indicator
woops
Use slime staff on eoc with nucleogenesis
Autopause to check the indicators
Shadowflame should be shown
there
Alright I shall, and I'll use the debuff thing.
Along with a few others
Would a super test dummy work?
Alright that's quite vague but sure it works
Yep. Shadowflame.
Guess it was my bad.
Sorry.
I guess the wiki does need updating though.
I updated the page
Thanks.
Delete the suggestion now that it is cleared up
The Deific amulet is still missing it's regen though.
The missing regen may be intentional
But thank you for helping clear that up.
Oh? It's only 0.5 regen.
@peak oyster Re-ping. See my ping from earlier.
Idk, crab said that can make a difference
Fair enough.
(probably wasn't a wise idea to admit your sugg may be breaking the rules and then you don't stick around to receive an answer)
Split channel when
It's comin

Amber's gotta set up the bot
Spider and Forbidden armor are summon armors
Rogue is the only one really lacking
it does?
i was mainly coming from the perspective of a rogue player
mhm
Spider is immediately on entering Hardmode
as is Forbidden (which is a hybrid set but it counts)
mainly rogue though
i just thought it was weird that i needed to use statigel against cryogen
yeah rogue's valid to say that for
For now.
We have one in the works already.
okay
okay
nice, it’s cool to know that you guys are working on this stuff all the time
what have i done
its ok rasp
yeah it's okay
nope im doing it it needs to be done
.. what
oh no
they're on to me
...what on earth is happening here

Anyway @little spade You can edit your suggestion to remove summoner
Or if you still want em to have more options you gotta acknowledge Spider and Forbidden
Rogue's on the way but it's not in yet so your sugg's still valid
ok, cool
wait
oh boy here we go 
you asked for a name change
he did
and now you want it back
Everyone voted for a name change
there's a disconnect between the name and the sprite, there was the moment it got respritten, but now it feels like a completely different thing which i feel does not fit into calamity anymore
i know this is horribly ironic and its just my opinion but who knows where it will go
yeah no
if it gets more stars really fast then i think that might say more about people's wants than the poll, but if it does not then it is clear that my opinion is not widely shared
there is no way I'd want to throw out that sprite and ||dragonfolly|| is a great name
he's not talking about throwing out the sprite?
its already being resprited anyways 
tbh names are probably going to fall short on ‘bumblebirb’ anyway; ‘Failed Yharon Clone’ is a bit too tongue in cheek and it’s pretty hard to create a name that represents that well
i'll see where it goes, if anyone has any legitimate feedback on improving the suggestion then tell me
||" if the cost of a bumblebirb resprite is losing its iconicness due to a name change, then the resprite is not worth it."||

my bad, I think?
lmfao not even an hour after the update and people already want it back
to be fair, its at least sparking discussion
fair enough
albeit negative
though it was the people who said the current sprite didn't fit the name
yet it was up to the mods to decide anyway
||bumblebirb had 34% of the votes||
keeping the name got the most votes
34% Voted stay, but that means that 66% voted to change it in some way
i think that is a possible flaw in the poll
“Sure this one has a third of the vote, but these 5 other options all add up to 66% so therefore they win!”
birb rename is a fuck.
end of story
no matter what happened, someone was going to be unhappy
it should have been:
should bumblebirb be renamed? y/n
then, after that, a poll listing the options depending on which option won
The choice to change Birb's name was an executive one
not both grouped together
another way to put it is that 34 percent of people thought bumblebirb was the best name
it does mean they win, even if you try and mock that as being stupid
We were going to change it no matter what, it was a matter of what it would be changed to
If the public went fuckin 80% on no change then we coulda reconsidered, but overall that option to keep it the same wasn't really going to be acknowledged
rasp
you've gotta raise the white flag on this one
you won't be able to win, and you might just make the situation upon yourself worse
i have no flag
I understand how you feel about it, and how the guys feel about it, but its an uphill battle
it's my opinion, and if anyone shares it go ahead, im not gonna get shot down or anything
Well if it’s a certain that the name has to be changed, redo the poll minus the ‘keep the bumblebirb name’
I just don't want to see you damage yourself too much
Also yes this is incredibly silly and ironic that you were the one who suggested a name change in the first place
And you did not suggest that it be a different iconic but serious name, you say to revert it
completely flying in the face of your old sugg
if the suggestion gets enough stars, itll be sent, the devs will see it, and it is, of course, up to them
honestly actually that might
holdon
rasp my man
scroll up
I don't see how ||dragonfolly|| can be considered "odd" or "not that iconic"
granted, this is my opinion
but I think what's happening is you're ascribing more value to the old name because it was the one that was always there
byeah because its iconic
bumblebirb is bumble, which makes no sense, and birb, which is a meme
"birb is bird misspelled, obvious meme"
^
suggestions to rename it back is expected
much like re-add astrageldon suggestions
all memetic names have slowly been purged from the mod by general principle
when that happened
suggestions to change it should have been expected anyway
rasp just happened to have been the person to do it
especially if the devs wanted to change it
birb’s just a bit of a general mess anyways imo
i am fine if the name changes but like, it feels like a completely different boss now, the name is changed, the sprite is different, the battle is changed, but the lore is still the same, and altought i think the sprite and name allude more to the lore they don't fit the idea that bumblebirb did before of it being well, bumblebirb
I don't like new name
Wouldn’t be surprised if it is eventually overhauled like astrageldon into aureus
tbh it has
it's hard to say ree
It sounds a little"overdone" to me
you're thinking of this wrong
And not close to the old version
the boss isn't bumblebirb which then became the rest
you asked for this to be renamed
it is now a bunch of parts that needs a name
I agree with squeak on that, hail; this isn't the same as geldon
i know i am so sorry its ironic i know i just
i am also sorry, because i have no reason to be upset at you
it's still a valid suggestion
mk
ozz everyone here knows and has said that rasp suggested for it to be renamed, and rasp has acknowledged it each time
I just wish it was something phonetically similar to the original
Dracofolly sounds like someone's edgy sonic the hedgehog oc
that's what two of the options were, the community just didn't vote for them as much
we expected people to be against changing the name at all
I'd wait until the next sprite comes out before asking for a name change
and we even considered just not putting up a public poll and going with blunderbird or whatever it was
if that resembles the old Bumblebirb sprite more than sure, I'd agree with the suggestion
but we don't know what the new one is going to look like so we should just stick with the current one for now
imo the poll was definitely more responsible than an executive decision like that; I'm glad there was at least a choice on our end
People probably assumed the name keep choice would matter, but if it wasn't there they would have went for blunderbird
i suggested the rename because i thought there was a disconnect between the sprite and the name, and i suggest the reversion because i feel that there is still a disconnect, but this time between the new name and the community's interpretation of bumblebirb
I’d say part of the problem is that now bumble’s a bit too closely similar to yharon, which leaves the parts of it such as rapid breeding and lightning relations feeling odd
like before it was different enough to yharon that it’s unique features felt in theme
the community's interpretation of bumblebirb is wrong, because bumblebirb has been irrevocably changed
what?
except that's a bad thing
its supposed to be a failed cloning of yharon
the fact that it looks more like yharon is good
you don't want your game's community to not like changes
yes, however the closer it is to yharon the more it should act like yharon no?
I wonder if the chicken nuggets will also get resprited when yharon does
rasp, be careful
a community will never like changes
again its a failed clone
behavior could be slightly similar but not nearly as close
Folly does mean faulty clone correct?
it depends on how much of a fuckup the cloning was
it raises some questions as to how it has such vividly different abilities yet such thematical similarities to yharon
folly means foolish/mistake
if 34% voted for no change, 34% wanted the name bumblebirb, and although more people wanted an overall change, none of those specific names lived up to the name bumblebirb
well we also had the choice to just not ask yall for opinions
we had the idea of listening to custom name submissions but that’d be an irreparable mess
66% wanted a name change
bumblebirb has similar ideas around the attacks to yharon
that would've been better than to ask for the opinions of the community then receive backlash for it
what
honestly, there would've been way less backlash if the option to keep the name wasn't an option at all, especially since it ended up winning the vote anyway
and we went with the exec decision to veto the majority vote for no name change
rasp 66% voted to change the name; if the devs wanted to change it anyway, its a lost cause
if 66% voted for a different name, then a majority wanted the name to change
because we had already decided it was changing, just not what into
yes, but no specific name
rasp
mhm
bumblebirb won, as a name
not really
nop
that aint how statistics work
Man
ok so
by definition 66% did not want the name to stay the same
it did not ask if you wanted to rename or not, it asked specific names, with one option being bumblebirb
Are we really starting discourse because
isn’t funny name anymore
the choice not to change it came out on top

I actually think birb should do a loop before firing feathers so he seems more similar to yharon
Nin already explained why they did the poll Scarfy
coming here to whine about the expected change is not a good look bro
by definition, the majority wanted the name bumblebirb
There's still a 66% group that voted for a name change
think of it in two separate things, man
in the first part, bumblebirb vs name change, where 66% voted against
in the second, dragonfolly was chosen
you werent voting for the name bumblebirb in the aspect of a rename you were voting for it in the aspect of keeping the name
i apologize for being mad about this
they might not have agreed but that's because there were more options in that category
trust me when I say the dev team was also very divided about this
gavran what
rasp, you're going to get yourself killed out here man
and thus all the other choices reflect the want of a name change
e, i am fine
yes the dev team was half half
it wasn't an easy decision for anyone
and issok ozz dw
can't really get banned for opinions here
( you absolutely can )
( not terraria related opinions though )
reaper shark arm moment
well, yeah
( if you push it hard enough )
im only mentioning what had happened and what the thought process was
thanks phup that was very cool
No problem
you are still free to keep your suggestion up
at the end of the day, bumblebirb was going to get a new name. the poll was to gague public opinion of what the name could be, but "bumblebirb" was not going to stay, regardless of poll results. "Dragonfolly" wasnt even the majority pick among all the devs at first either, so there was deliberation behind this. It's a dumb name and honestly falls in line with something like devourer of thots did. it's really just that simple
rasp I am very worried about you
you've seen what has happened to the boys (and the reaper shark arms, yes)
it could happen to you
or voice your complaints
believe it or not dragonfolly was one of the least votes in the dev team
I liked devourer of thots
it won't i will voice my complaints and see what happens
I was sad they changed it
it's a terribly sexist meme
well thats a different story
bumblebirb was too memey of a nmae to survive in modern cal
anyways, yeah i see this stuff and understand that it wasn't really in the community's hand to keep the name
but was devourer of thots a fitting name for an enemy?
rather to pick the next
Smh just recast the poll without the name keep option
i feel like most people chose dragonfolley at first only because it sounded cool
i actually agree with yuh do that
You are defending the idea that all women are queens by slaying the devourer of thots
I only chose it for meme because I didn't like any of the options particularly
what else are you supposed to pick a name based on, doge
if your suggestion is passed @ashen warren i will definitely push for another conversation in the dev team about dragonfolly vs bumblebird but i will not guarantee it will change the final decision
okay.
pretty sure the original name was gonna be draconic swarmer
then all this happened
it was yeah
Out of all of them dragonfolly sounds the most passable and is decent at best
personally i like dragonfolly, it makes it sound more plague-like
I feel like the inclusion of dragon in these names don't fit bumble at all since it's barely even a dragon on its own
just name it ‘failed yharon clone that has red lightning instead of fire and also breeds a lot’
I really liked blunderbolt
I mean its more similar to a dragon with the new design now
@civic pond yes we took several factors into consideration in the initial conflict with the name
Draconic Swarmer/Dracoswarmer sounds meh and Blunderbird sounds lazy
I agree with phup there
trust me when we say the votes were very divided
that was my main issue i had with it
It might be more similar to a dragon but it's still a far fetch from one
Imo I don't think the name change should be such a big deal, but I really see why it turned out like this
The name simply doesn't fit it or even its mechanics imo
To me "dragonfolly" sounds more childish
dragonfolly having dragon in its name is less abt it being similar to dragons and more abt it being a failed attempt at cloning one, hence “folly”
I don't see that there was a better way to do it, but with there being several poll options, a split community outcome should have been expected
additionally, consider the fact that giving the community names to think about also made them like the names, and brings us to where we are now
Honestly
it all sucks, but rasp suggesting something at all kind of helps I guess
sounding hypocritical from my previous points but it is a failed yharon clone hence it shouldn’t be exact to a dragon
Which is why I'd have rather the dragon part replaced for something else more fitting
What would be a good bumble rename
