I am a pp enthusiast

indigo fog
#

Also about that tracer wings suggestion, giving tracer wings their own special effects like any other wings isn't a good idea in my opinion. They're already really strong options as they are, and giving Celestial Tracers hover functionality or giving Elysian Tracers a fast fall would only make other wing options worse in comparison to them. If anything hover functionality should be moved to Drew's Wings so it could actually compete with Celestial Tracers, Drew's Wings are better than Celestial Tracers in one aspect, which is giving you extra flight time that you don't need. Celestial Tracers already are wings combined with running boots and can give you extended immune time, so giving it a hover would make it way too good compared to Drew's Wings. The entire point of Seraph Tracers and its upgrades is to be a worse wing option without a bunch of special effects, because unlike other wings they come with the enormous benefit of saving you another slot. They really don't need to be buffed.

unkempt bolt
#

okay

hollow shell
#

omniscience should affect literally everything he throws out

#

That's a fair point izzy
because I personally never ever unequip tracers for wings

dapper ferry
#

And like I said, it's dark during the fight and he throws out his projectiles at the edges of the screen, where it's darkest

indigo fog
#

actually i'm gonna make a suggestion to make drew's wings better compete with celestial tracers

dapper ferry
#

I much preferred him without the blizzard

unreal viper
#

A lot of people actually prefer drew's wings due to the flight time.

indigo fog
#

That increased flight time is pretty insignificant because you don't really use up all the flight time Celestial Tracers give you when fighting SCal

unreal viper
#

I agree.

unkempt bolt
#

i prefer drew's to tracers for scal because i dont touch the ground during the fight

unreal viper
#

But the run buffs are also pretty useless for scal.

indigo fog
#

Celestial Tracers also give you extra immune time

unreal viper
#

That's why I use them, yeah.

#

I think that there's a stronger argument for buffing stuff like the tarragon wings.

toxic pagoda
#

ive always gone drew's over tracers

unreal viper
#

I really don't understand why you'd do that.

indigo fog
#

I don't see the point in sticking with drew's wings even if the running boots won't help, Celestial Tracers are upgraded almost instantly and give you extra immune time

unkempt bolt
#

i dont find myself getting hit often enough for the extra immune time to matter

indigo fog
#

the extra flight time doesn't really help

toxic pagoda
#

Im not one to get hit much

#

well, for me it does

queen sail
#

Honestly

unreal viper
#

But some people prefer them, and they are clearly superior in one aspect, so I feel like a buff isn't needed.

queen sail
#

Is tracers giving more immune frames supposed to encourage using it

hollow shell
#

(Fun fact, the extra immune time doesn't do jack shit because SCal uses custom i-frames for all attacks, along with most other post-ML bosses)

unkempt bolt
queen sail
#

Sooooooooooo

dry grotto
#

what the fuck's the use of it then

queen sail
#

What’s it even for then ech

indigo fog
#

oh ok then

unkempt bolt
#

boss rush?

#

lol

dry grotto
#

boss rush gets you 2shot anyway

queen sail
#

We’re sure as hell not gonna use it for the one other boss left

#

That cages you, anyway

toxic pagoda
#

tbh I say make tracers post SCAL and buff them

queen sail
#

post scal

dry grotto
#

no

queen sail
#

We have no main content after that

unkempt bolt
#

dev accessory smolw

dry grotto
#

scal will always be moved further btw

#

since scal will always be a post-story boss

#

or it should atleast be

#

since it's a superboss ech

unkempt bolt
#

no she won't

hollow shell
#

what

#

No, bee

unkempt bolt
#

she'll be demoted from superboss in the future

toxic pagoda
#

yharim after SCAL

unreal viper
#

Wiki says that tracers i-frames actually do matter in the scal fight.

hollow shell
#

SCal will become a regular boss, Yharim will also be a regular boss

queen sail
#

Bee did you forget that she’s supposed to be demoted eventually

hollow shell
#

Noxus and Xeroc will become the superbosses

queen sail
dry grotto
#

okay that works

#

yes kirby

#

goozma too?

queen sail
#

No

toxic pagoda
#

he was scrapped

dry grotto
unreal viper
#

Plz no.

queen sail
#

Noxus And Xeroc are the two superbosses

hollow shell
#

Noxus is Goozma

toxic pagoda
#

O

queen sail
#

Also Noxus is hella miss bc trade out interesting scenario for “generic cosmic evil that gets mentioned one or two times in the main story”

#

But this isn’t lore chat

dry grotto
#

i mean, isn't that how most superbosses work tho

#

look at the superbosses in final fantasy games

queen sail
#

Yes but see: “generic”

hollow shell
#

We'll add more Noxus shit once he's in the game

#

He'll be cool, I promise

queen sail
#

I can’t add other emotes SAD

dry grotto
#

YharonAch he better be

queen sail
onyx river
#

And then normal mode Xeroc is like fighting all post ML bosses at once on DM with preml gear

unreal viper
#

Please don't give him any diolague.

queen sail
#

Why would he talk

#

He’s a ball

hollow shell
#

No dialogue planned afaik

unreal viper
#

Yay.

dry grotto
#

xeroc should talk tho

queen sail
#

Xeroc already talks ech

unreal viper
#

I always felt like scal's diolague took away from the fight.

hollow shell
#

Well he already does yeah

onyx river
#

Wat

dry grotto
#

he better talk about the creation of terraria itself

onyx river
#

where

hollow shell
#

Boss Rush narration

#

spoilers

onyx river
#

oh i see

dry grotto
#

also, draedon should talk like that one guy from kid icarus

hollow shell
#

yeeeah Pit

queen sail
#

Why not just give

dry grotto
#

not pit

#

the old guy

queen sail
#

Draedon the personality of Agnus

hollow shell
#

This is offtopic

queen sail
#

@hollow shell dyntos

hollow shell
#

btw

queen sail
#

But ye

onyx river
#

Imagine draedon not knowing how to read

queen sail
#

Nahhhhhh rover

gray nebula
#

my favorite evenn,,,,,,,,, OOA widerhappy

queen sail
#

Also it’s hard for anyone to touch ooa bc it’s ass

hollow shell
#

easily distracted HDfailure

dry grotto
#

i do admit tho, OOA needs to have a reason to be fought

#

cause atm it's like
"haha funny dragon"

onyx river
#

Well it does

#

Armor

queen sail
#

You can’t even appreciate the dragon bc of the event’s specific gameplay

hollow shell
#

Aren't all of the weapons really good
and the armors moderately overpowered

queen sail
#

Yes but there’s nothing else going for it

indigo fog
#

aerial bane too

dry grotto
#

the armors are only op in normal/expert ech and even then it takes insanely long

toxic pagoda
#

vesuvius is what I used to no hit PBG

queen sail
#

Betsy is probably the one thing that ooa is worth doing for

onyx river
#

It's legendary tho

dry grotto
#

and even then, u can speed through post-golem insanely fast

queen sail
#

And it’s ass to get to her

#

Bc funny timer

dry grotto
#

and there's the chaotic bar armorset

onyx river
#

The wings are pretty good in terms of mobility doe

hollow shell
#

Betsy wings are pretty sex

queen sail
#

Yes, I need 5 minutes to prep every time i complete a wave

indigo fog
#

Betsy's Wings are really good

ashen warren
#

I was talking about buffing it after one of the post Moonlord bosses like what they did with the Pumpkin/Frost Moons, and making it mandatory.

hollow shell
#

mmmmm people would not like it to become mandatory

toxic pagoda
#

/\

onyx river
#

Yes

unkempt bolt
#

yeah ooa sucks

onyx river
#

waiting isn't fun

dry grotto
#

how about making it so u can spawn betsy outside of the event

indigo fog
#

also betsy's curse is buffed in calamity iirc

queen sail
#

mandatory

void kelp
#

OOA is one of those super tedious things that I often skip

queen sail
#

Give me your address

dry grotto
#

"fake Crystal"

queen sail
#

Honestly

onyx river
#

how about doing a manual trigger for next wave

dry grotto
#

spawns betsy

queen sail
#

Can we kill the fuckin timer

ashen warren
#

OOA is easy.

queen sail
dry grotto
#

OOA is not easy

ashen warren
#

And I play Revengeance mode usually.

dry grotto
#

it's tedious af for when u do it since u need to get the sentries

hollow shell
#

OOA is pretty hard to do on-tier in my experience

onyx river
#

Ehhhhhhhh betsy + clusterfuck of ennemies is ech

hollow shell
#

especially alone

#

If you have a buddy it's much better

dry grotto
#

the only way it becomes easy is with the tier3 sentries

ashen warren
#

I never get the sentrys.

onyx river
#

But summoner is chad for OOA

ashen warren
#

It's easy without them.

dry grotto
#

and even then u can easily lose cause betsy makes it so u can't kill the regular enemies

onyx river
#

^

dry grotto
#

then when betsy's about to die your crystal suddenly gets rekt

#

and u have to repeat the whole event that u spend like 10 minutes on

onyx river
#

The sentries are here to kill the trashmmobs while you kill betsy

toxic pagoda
#

give crystal immortality but a timer to live once betsy spawns?

dry grotto
#

also, the crossbow sentry sucks

ashen warren
#

Guess I'm just good at crowd control then.

onyx river
#

What gear u using

toxic pagoda
#

Is playing on normal mode

ashen warren
#

The Stormbow.

#

I play on Revengeance.

toxic pagoda
#

stormbow works in rev post golem OOA?

indigo fog
#

was that for post-mech ooa or post-golem ooa

ashen warren
#

For both.

#

I just have proper Ranger gear.

onyx river
#

Could you show a screenshot (or tell us wwhat you have including armor and accs)

toxic pagoda
#

I could record OOA post golem in rev with stormbow and post golem ranger

ashen warren
#

Don't have my game open. But I can say that I have Plague Bringer armor for post golem.

#

And the Magic Quiver, along with the Deadelous Emblem.

#

Hovever you spell that.

toxic pagoda
#

know what, I now wanna find all the most viable class setups for post golem OOA so I can make a guide

ashen warren
#

People underestimate the Stormbow.

void kelp
#

nah, it’s not underestimated

toxic pagoda
#

u still use holy arrows?

void kelp
#

I don’t use it because of the principle of the thing, it’s waaay too strong

onyx river
#

Yeah basically a leg wep

queen sail
#

people underestimate stormbow

onyx river
#

but without the absurd drop rate

queen sail
#

literally one of the first items this mod nerfed

toxic pagoda
#

speaking of nerfs, Im so happy the last prism nerf is going away

onyx river
#

Maybe sugg another stormbow nerf then if it beats OOA post golem

dry grotto
#

last prism is an odd weapon and idk why it got nerfed

toxic pagoda
#

and dark spark needs a buff

dry grotto
#

why's it odd?
because of how the damage works

#

and yeh, dark spark needs a buff

queen sail
#

Probably the same reason dan made araghur immune to it

toxic pagoda
#

dark spark is so cool but other weapons like venusian trident, ghastly visage, and stratus sphere are waaay better

dry grotto
#

the thing with last prism is tho that it deals more damage when concentrated

#

yet it uses so much mana that u're always firing it at 50% dps

indigo fog
#

dark spark is so cool but other weapons like venusian trident, ghastly visage, and stratus sphere are waaay better
Did Dark Spark get nerfed or something? I remember it being like really good

toxic pagoda
#

I can only manage like 16k DPS with it

dry grotto
#

it's just outclassed by most other mage weapons at the same tier, izzy

toxic pagoda
#

stratus sphere is freakin amazing tho

indigo fog
#

I can only manage like 16k DPS with it
DPS on what

toxic pagoda
#

actually lemme test it on boomer real quick so I can get more accurate results

#

ill test dark spark against 3 things: post polter acid rain, OD, DoG

tawny gyro
#

how much of a frequent suggestion is "change set bonus mechworm to something else"?

wooden wedge
#

not frequent?

tawny gyro
#

weird, i'd expect it to be often

#

like, i get the idea of making a set bonus minion that you can upgrade on your own

#

but now that co(r)vid harbringer and cosmic viper are in the game it's kinda underwhelming, even when you use all your minion slots on mechworm segments

#

not even mentioning it's AI

hollow shell
#

I think we got that sugg once before because someone thought it was forcibly "taking up" a minion slot

#

even though we would have accounted for that

#

You could suggest that it be given a unique minion like all other armor sets

tawny gyro
#

the problem i have right now is that my main reason is "since it's there, and you can upgrade it, you're pretty much forced to do so"

#

which is false, since you can just ignore it

#

but the fact it's an option feels like an implication you're supposed to do so

hollow shell
#

It is indeed the only armor set minion you can upgrade
which makes it kinda unique
in that the minion itself isn't unique

tawny gyro
#

i'd say "if it had better AI then i guess it'd be okay"

#

but afaik trying to change anything for mechworm is absolute suffering

hollow shell
#

... I'm wondering if it'd be possible for the God Slayer armor to give you a single special mechworm segment that shot lasers or something, so it was more useful
That may also be hell

dapper coral
#

what was the consensus on cataclysmic's sugg? iirc it was cool but it would be a butt-ton of work for devs to implement which is discouraged?

hollow shell
#

Just more sounds?
That's not that bad

cyan lagoon
#

should be simple enough

#

shouldn't be too bad

hollow shell
#

Considering this sugg pertains to my work I can just approve it :P

#

And I'll delete the old one cuz custom death animations are a Don't anyway

cyan lagoon
#

I'll delete the oldest one there as well

#

given the reception it recieved

hollow shell
#

Do we think the Mega Dummy sugg is good enough now?

cyan lagoon
#

i don't think it'd hurt

wooden wedge
#

it's kinda meh imo

cyan lagoon
#

though theres always the argument of

#

"just use another mod lol"

wooden wedge
#

and like

#

actual boss testing

#

which is a lot better in application than something with no AI

hollow shell
#

Actually yknow what
@bronze mauve For making your sugg fully optimal
you shouldn't title your sugg "Mega Dummy" and instead make it something like "Add a Super Dummy upgrade with adjustable size (or greatly increased size)"
(and remove that first line in your body, too)

so that way the main idea is in the main line, and so you don't give it a name which is a bit SIS-like

bronze mauve
#

ok screw it im just deleting that and writing a new one

hollow shell
#

Aight fair enough

bronze mauve
#

there

wooden wedge
#

@bronze mauve formatting

bronze mauve
#

@hollow shell

tawny gyro
#

Current problems with Mechworm being the God Slayer Set Bonus (for summoner):

  1. It's not unique
  2. Extremely weak if not upgraded with Staff of the Mechworm, even compared to other set bonus summons
  3. Upgrading costs minion slots, and even then other on-tier stuff, such as Corvid Harbringer or Cosmic Viper have more DPS
  4. Mechworm's AI is at best questionable, sometimes ignoring the enemy or tailing behind them instead of staying on top
bronze mauve
#

@wooden wedge fixed

wooden wedge
#

mm

hollow shell
#

Aight this is better

wooden wedge
#

DPS tests against dummies is bad

#

because 0 defense enemies basically don't exist

bronze mauve
#

yeah

#

but like

#

its good for comparing weapons

#

to figure out which is better

tawny gyro
#

honestly i think DPS against dummies is there to test the theoretical maximum potential of a weapon

#

and also what Schmiggle just said

wooden wedge
#

same could be said for testing against bosses

hollow shell
#

I mean yeah you could just test against bosses
but also like

why would Super Dummies exist at all then

bronze mauve
#

exactly

tawny gyro
#

bosses move around a lot, and test results vary, even with the same setup and method, because the boss can just decide to dash in a different direction or enter a different subphase

bronze mauve
#

by that logic you could test stuff on lunatic cultist instead of super dummies

#

very convenient

#

(no sarcasm totally)

wooden wedge
#

how about like

tawny gyro
#

oh boi, time to activate lunar event everytime i want to test my weapons

wooden wedge
#

giving the ability to give dummies defense and DR

hollow shell
#

(at this point we're just tryin to recreate Luiafk's Patchwerk)

wooden wedge
#

does it let you change it's defense?

bronze mauve
#

no

hollow shell
#

Yes
Even iframes, iirc

bronze mauve
#

oh

#

no it doesnt let you change defense

#

only give it no iframes

tawny gyro
#

relating back to my mechworm sugg, are there any other problems you guys can think of?

hollow shell
#

Are you sure about that?
Because I'm fairly sure it lets you change defense

wooden wedge
#

I can test

hollow shell
#

s'in the tooltip
you gotta enter a command in chat to do it

bronze mauve
#

huh

tawny gyro
#

wait what

bronze mauve
#

well can u add my suggestion

#

to voting

hollow shell
#

Yeah may as well
It's fine on its own

bronze mauve
#

alright

tawny gyro
#

does it say in the tooltip you can change their defense?

#

or, does it say you need to type in chat to change their defense?

bronze mauve
#

luiafk isnt in the mod browser

#

is that just me

wooden wedge
#

should be

hollow shell
#

Could be your filters

wooden wedge
#

check your filters

hollow shell
#

Doesn't let you see it cuz it's already installed, perhaps

tawny gyro
#

also on an unrelated note cuz i just did testing, is endo hydra supposed to just kinda detach and go onto an enemy when you desummon it?

#

cuz that was kinda weird

hollow shell
#

Pardon?

wooden wedge
hollow shell
#

yeee there we go

tawny gyro
#

that's the luiafk dummy tho, not the calamity one

hollow shell
#

Yeah

#

thas what we were talking about

tawny gyro
#

ah

hollow shell
#

Cuz I mean yeah, it is definitely the optimal dummy

#

The only thing it doesn't have it like
boss movement patterns
for maximum replication

tawny gyro
#

i feel like that'd be wack to program tho

hollow shell
#

Prolly yes

wooden wedge
#

maximum replication is just testing on bosses though,..,

hollow shell
#

true

tawny gyro
#

okay, time to use my last 7 braincells to make a good sugg about changing mechworm

hollow shell
#

aighty

#

btw is Demik's sugg fine?

tawny gyro
#

i managed to do a "add more bombs" sugg without making it a "make bomb-only viable", so i think i'll do well

#

seems to be fine

#

i never understood having the empyrian there myself

#

btw, about my bomb sugg ("add more pre-hm bombs"), was it another split-decision by the devs?

#

cuz it's been greenmarked for quite some time

hollow shell
#

Devs had no thoughts on it

tawny gyro
#

so pretty much a rejection, okay .-.

radiant meadow
#

you know

#

I'm not obligated to complete any suggestions

#

or even look at them

#

but I do occasionally

dry grotto
#

i'd love to see an accessory that combines most of the "true melee" accessories

hollow shell
#

(we appreciate your work, Ben)
(The fact you bother at all does mean a lot)

toxic pagoda
#

ok so I was just testing a buncha magic post polter weapons

#

Dark Spark is at best mediocre

tawny gyro
#

Change the God Slayer Summoner Set Bonus to not be a Mechworm, or change the Mechworm somehow
Reason: The concept is fine on paper - make an upgradable set bonus minion. It stands out. However, there are a lot of problems with it, mainly:

  1. Because you upgrade it with the SotM, the minion isn't unique (like all other set bonus minions).
  2. Without any upgrades, the mechworm is pretty much useless, even when compared to other set bonus minions.
  3. Upgrading it costs minion slots, and even when fully upgraded the mechworm does less DPS than weapons like the Cosmic Viper and the Corvid Harbringer.
  4. The mechworm AI is... okay, at best. It either ignores the enemy, tails behind them (but not close enough to do contact damage) or circles them (and it starts from far away, so you need to wait for it to get close to deal damage).
#

how's this look?

hollow shell
#

That looks good.

wooden wedge
#

wouldn't the formatting break it or?

tawny gyro
#

i did shift+enter to make paragraphs so the bot shouldn't spill its beans

#

unless you mean bolding?

wooden wedge
#

I thought more than one line breaks killed the bot

frail mantle
#

nah it shouldn't

tawny gyro
#

i did a sugg with more than one line break some time ago and it worked

wooden wedge
#

ah ok

frail mantle
#

i've had suggs before that had more than one line break and didn't die

hollow shell
#

Demik's first sugg seem fine?

wooden wedge
#

I think so

tawny gyro
#

vanity's never a bad idea

#

isn't the paladins hammer a 25% chance?

#

that's not that low

true socket
#

No it is a 9.8% chance

hollow shell
#

Weirdly enough, it's affected by Defiled Rune

#

And it's a vanilla drop, which means it will get boosted

crude geode
#

weirdly enough, the wiki only says that "Affected vanilla rare items are given an additional +5% drop rate." in the Defiled Rune page

hollow shell
#

Indeed
This is still true

crude geode
#

To me it just feels very non-descriptive

hollow shell
#

wdym?

crude geode
#

The wiki doesn't specify something like "drops below 15% chance" or something like that. It just says "affected vanilla rare items".

hollow shell
#

Indeed

#

Because the precedent is kinda wonky and I'm pretty sure a few of them are oversights :P

#

That's why you have a list of all the items it affects

#

It's supposed to be any items below 5%

#

(except RoD because RoD)

crude geode
#

oh god I forgot about that list

hollow shell
#

It's only a few pixels away from where you were reading

crude geode
#

Yeah, completely missed it

#

Big brain moment really

toxic pagoda
#

just read the roar suggestion

#

I love queen bee sounding like a lion XDDD

crude geode
#

About God Bee's bloodcore bullet sugg...that just feels like a big balancing pain.

#

Cosmic Bar bullets seem fine, but the rapid fire rate that guns naturally have would make any type of thematic lifesteal bloodcore bullets a bit of a problem.

toxic pagoda
#

someone please tell me what the point of clamor noctus is

#

it has just about 0 purpose for where it is in the game

true socket
#

The Paladin Hammer is so annoying to get and so that is why i suggested the craft

toxic pagoda
#

cant u use zerg and defiled?

true socket
#

zerg will not end well and the defiled rune is only like a 5% more chance of getting rare items

hollow shell
#

You could suggest a recipe for it yes, it's fine

#

(and include in the sugg why Zerg+Defiled would be a bad idea, to cover your bases)

true socket
#

ah ok

#

ill edit it

crude geode
#

Post-Plantera is kind of ech since most weapons/access craftings are after they become useful

true socket
#

wdym

crude geode
#

For example, enchanted sword's crafting recipe is in Harmode, and Waterbolt requires a spelltome

true socket
#

mhmm

gray nebula
#

asking to remove a weapon

crude geode
#

@toxic pagoda Removing weapons almost never happens.

gray nebula
toxic pagoda
#

ik

#

I'm just stating what's theoretical to do something about Clamor Noctus

gray nebula
hollow shell
#

You could prolly move that to #4

#

instead of 1

toxic pagoda
#

ig

gray nebula
#

adding "asking to remove weapons" to the don'ts doc when

crude geode
#

Honestly it prolly should happen

hollow shell
#

naw, it's fine

crude geode
#

nvm

gray nebula
#

when was a weapon removed thanks to a suggestion tho

hollow shell
#

Hrm

gray nebula
#

idk removing content is something that very rarely happens from a dev decision, let alonge a suggestion

#

in most cases, a rework is better

hollow shell
#

There's Chibii's sugg asking to remove the melee variants of rogue weapons

#

and that got approved

gray nebula
#

but it's not really removing a weapon tho

crude geode
#

ech that's kind of a very specific example

gray nebula
#

only "part" of a weapon peepothink

toxic pagoda
#

aight I fixed the suggestion

#

removal is #4 and I stated that the other 3 options are probably preferable

hollow shell
#

Aight thats better

toxic pagoda
#

but seriously, Clamor Noctus really does suck

hollow shell
#

How do we feel about these three most recent suggs?
Any feedback for any of em?

toxic pagoda
#

The summoner DoG one is interesting

#

that might be a bit of a pain to discuss tho

#

and add to the game

true socket
#

how does a suggestion get to the suggestion voting

frail mantle
#

a mod approves it

true socket
#

ah ok

hollow shell
#

ye
Me, in this case

wooden wedge
#

someone who is certified approves it with ✅

frail mantle
#

well, Rover or a mod/tmod

wooden wedge
#

they react with that emote then it goes through

#

unless the bot is kill

toxic pagoda
#

@true socket you got an idea for a specific Paladin's Hammer recipe?

true socket
#

not exactly.... but i think it needs somethings like hallowed bar and living shard and other stuff like that

wooden wedge
#

why'd you need a specific recipe

hollow shell
#

Specific recipe isn't needed yeah

crude geode
#

I kinda don't like the formatting on Dean's sugg, mainly bc of how spaced out it is.

#

Also yes.

hollow shell
#

Devs will figure something out

wooden wedge
#

that's up to the devs for if it goes through

true socket
#

ok

[No quantities in mind] but I'd say holy water, purification powder, abyssal warhammer, and living shards

wooden wedge
#

does deans sugg need those options?

hollow shell
#

Abyssal Warhammer is a strange choice

wooden wedge
#

because of the whole devs deciding part

hollow shell
#

and yeah those options are fine

toxic pagoda
#

@crude geode if that's something that's unappealing for most including yourself, I can fix that

hollow shell
#

I think you could just get rid of the doublespace before the options

toxic pagoda
#

ok

hollow shell
#

Turn into a single space

#

Removing any of the other spaces would make it too much of a wall of text

#

imo

crude geode
#

I'm mainly worried about it when it goes to being formatted and embedded by the bot

hollow shell
#

That's not a problem

crude geode
#

and how it could take up a lot of space in voting

hollow shell
#

Or at least not a technical problem

crude geode
#

yeah, it won't be a technical problem

toxic pagoda
#

how's that

crude geode
#

that's better

toxic pagoda
#

is the bold good on the options or no cause the main header is already bolded

crude geode
#

I don't think the bot cares

wooden wedge
#

Building doesn't matter

#

Or bolding either

toxic pagoda
#

ok

hollow shell
#

ye that's good

#

The bolded options helped

#

Good, then

toxic pagoda
#

do suggestions that get approved always come in packs of 3?

crude geode
#

No

wooden wedge
#

nope

toxic pagoda
#

or is it just any suggestion that's good

wooden wedge
#

any sugg that gets approved gets approved

crude geode
#

Any good sugg

toxic pagoda
#

I'm new to the changes in the suggestion system in this discord so I didnt know

wooden wedge
#

check the pins

hollow shell
wooden wedge
#

(it's also pinned,,.,.)

frail mantle
#

there'll usually be a burst of several suggs approved simultaneously yea

crude geode
#

it kinda depends on the mod/dev as well

frail mantle
#

yea

hollow shell
#

I spose I'll just ask
Apart from WeatherReport's Auric Tesla suggestion, does anybody have any feedback about the suggs currently in posting?
(feel free to ping the people in question if you do)

wooden wedge
#

bloodcore bullets were already sugged were they not?

hollow shell
#

They were but I don't think they went through

toxic pagoda
#

that sounds like something that could be suggested often

wooden wedge
#

discord refuses to let the search funtion work properly

#

also no

#

it's been sugged like 2 times

hollow shell
#

I don't think it's too common afaik

toxic pagoda
#

huh

#

holy fire bullets arent bad

#

onyxia and holy fire bullets against Yharon is pretty damn good

dry grotto
#

i know

#

but i just feel like there's more opportunity for unique bullet effects

#

and again, consistency

toxic pagoda
#

I get it tho

dry grotto
#

why should arrows get special treatment over bullets while bows get a 20% dmg boost potion ech

toxic pagoda
#

like maybe bloodcore bullets could be weaker but give lifesteal or something

dry grotto
#

yeh

toxic pagoda
#

having a choice with ammo is never a bad thing with rangers

dry grotto
#

vanquisher bullets should be portalled bullets if u ask me

#

as in: they get shot directly from where your cursor is

wooden wedge
#

@ashen warren there's 3 tiers to OOA, tier 1 is when you get the tavernkeep, t2 is post mech bosses/ 1 mech boss(?), and t3 is post golem

dry grotto
#

at the cost of being weaker than some other bullet types

ashen warren
#

Yeah I remember post golem, just forgot to mention it.

wooden wedge
#

add it to the sugg

ashen warren
#

I was talking about some fourth post Moonlord one. But I didn't know people didn't like the OOA

toxic pagoda
#

@dry grotto logically Cosmilite bullets should be better than pre-providence bullets, but the problem is Onyxia (and other guns) are already so damn good with holy fire, so post-DoG bullets would probably need to be a little weaker than Holy Fire but have homing or something

dry grotto
#

homing + portal effect

#

that'd be cool

#

would be a pretty darn good synergy with the skullmasher as well

#

which is a doggo drop

frail mantle
#

new post-Holy Fire bullets would mean rebalancing post-Holy Fire guns with the new bullets in mind which would be kinda ech

dry grotto
#

why weren't there post-holy fire bullets to begin with tho

toxic pagoda
#

unless the bullets themselves aren't stronger than holy fire bullets

frail mantle
#

cause they're not really needed, guns work when you have them post-ML, even though the only post-ML clam bullets are Holy Fire

toxic pagoda
#

I gotta admit that DoG bullets probably aren't needed, but blood core bullets with lifesteal would be interesting

dry grotto
#

it's mostly for consistency sake as well tho

#

also, u say that as if bows DO need it

frail mantle
#

tbh just giving them lifesteal would be kinda boring, it'd be better if bullets and arrows from the same set had separate effects

dry grotto
#

atm the only exotier weapons for ranged are bow, rocket launcher (i think) and a flamethrower

toxic pagoda
#

What if DoG got healed by Holy Fire Bullets because DoG feasts upon divine energy

dry grotto
#

guns get no love on that tier 😔

frail mantle
#

i know Terra bullets/arrows exist but i don't really like how they're the same except one is boolet and the other is aro

toxic pagoda
#

you practically don't even use terra arrows until later anyways

#

Ballista and Blossom Flux both have their own ammunition

crude geode
#

using Blossom Flux normally in a playthrough CalWheeze

frail mantle
#

well there's Bladegde Railbow

#

it's not a lot but it's something™️

toxic pagoda
#

shitty weapon?

crude geode
#

Blossom Flux is a legendary

toxic pagoda
#

well yeah

#

but Ballista is great

#

and then there's the P90

frail mantle
#

byeag either Terra bullets or arrows getting unique effects so they're more different would be epic

toxic pagoda
#

the best ranger weapon from plantera is definitely Venus Magnum

#

way better than blossom flux

dry grotto
#

neh

#

blossom flux can shred some bosses

toxic pagoda
#

not surprised my suggestion isn't getting many stars

#

Clamor Noctus is already becoming a forgotten weapon due to how bad it is

frail mantle
#

well not every suggestion gets fifteen hundred stars immediately after posting

toxic pagoda
#

no sh**

#

but the other 2 above mine seem to be more popular

wooden wedge
#

you don't need to censor yourself

toxic pagoda

it wouldn't

toxic pagoda
#

ik lol

wooden wedge
#

since meme sugg

toxic pagoda
#

Give Brimstone Elemental bigger boobs

wooden wedge
#

resprite suggs are a don't

#

also horny meme sugg

toxic pagoda
#

so literal you are...

wooden wedge
#

yes because this is sugg disc

#

where memes shouldn't be priority

toxic pagoda
#

a meme or two doesn't violate this channel

tawny gyro
#

i, for one, haven't voted on your sugg because i haven't played calamity mage yet

#

and as such i have no opinion on whether or not said weapon is good

toxic pagoda
#

understandable

#

you'd probably agree with me if you did play mage and used clamor noctus, but thats fair

#

no need to star something you haven't even seen

tawny gyro
#

i'll be playing mage after i'll do a melee playthrough

#

and i'll do a melee playthrough after i finish my summoner playthrough

#

so i've got quite a way to go

toxic pagoda
#

I've been playing calamity for two years and have gone through every class multiple times so I know quite a bit about weapons, class setup, etc

#

like if you give me a random point in the game and say what class, I'll probably have a generally good guide for weapons and accessories

#

@tawny gyro what class u playing rn

#

summoner cause your suggestion? or am I wrong

crude geode
#

This is for discussing Suggs, Dean. Take this convo to dms or calamity mod talk if you want casual conversation not relating to suggestions.

toxic pagoda
#

tru

copper orchid
#

Well, ethos doesn’t hurt to back up the reasoning behind a suggestion, but I think there needs to be a clear reason related to weapon balancing, regardless of who suggested it.

#

And you are saying that the weapon does too inconsistent damage?

toxic pagoda
#

and @crude geode a brief description about a playthrough can reinforce or contradict a suggetion

#

like for example, if a suggestion said something along the lines of Summoner being bad against Providence, I'd ask if they are using too many elemental axes, and encourage them to use many plague jets

copper orchid
#

Ok, what about the suggestion that you just sent? Cursed Being does have a point that you are a little off topic here.

crude geode
#

Your point is valid. Yet your suggestion has already been approved and gone to voting.

toxic pagoda
#

yea ive moved on from discussing my suggestion at this point

crude geode
#

Ok

toxic pagoda
#

that auric tesla armor one

#

big lol

radiant meadow
#

tier shifting clamor noctus and removing it entirely aren't things that will happen

#

because clamor noctus is part of a weapon set

void kelp
#

@vague laurel would be a bluecheck + probably in the works

hollow shell
#

Actually I don't think it'll be a bluecheck cuz the cutoff date got moved

void kelp
#

ah

hollow shell
#

This'll be the new bluecheck target

indigo fog
#

i feel like this has been suggested a lot though

civic pond
#

thats probably because it has been

#

since so many people have suggested it now, its either in the works or will hit the quota

hollow shell
#

After this gets accepted, should we add it to the Frequently Suggested Don'ts, actually?

indigo fog
#

probably yeah

hollow shell
#

prolly.

frail mantle
#

ye

crude geode
#

Ye

hollow shell
#

Anybody got feedback for him before approval?

crude geode
#

Nope.

dapper coral
#

seems fine to me

civic pond
#

I think its good

vague laurel
void kelp
#

i want to note that

#

💹 comes up before ✅ sometimes

#

and when im tired they look the same.

#

i may or may not have accidentally reacted to some suggestions with 💹 before

dapper coral
#

that's actually kinda hilarious ngl

civic pond
#

💹

#

wth

dapper coral
#

what is that even supposed to be

void kelp
#

yen stocks??

subtle oracle
#

Yen

hollow shell
#

I personally approve of this one

#

I like concise tooltips and I do feel like it's unnecessary to have the same explanation over and over

ancient crow
#

I agree with the post provi bullet sugg, but it would probably have to come with a HF bullet nerf

#

at the moment, despite being available pre providence, HF bullets are fully capable of lasting the rest of the run (assuming you upgrade your guns)

#

if more tiers of bullets were added, HF would have to get nerfed

dapper coral
#

can i get any feedback on my sugg? it gets yeeted in 4 hours so i just wanna make any necessary edits beforehand

void kelp
#

I believe the only limitation is sprites + something to request on the art server

#

nothing else

dapper coral
#

thats true, it would certainly be a lot of work sprite-wise

hollow shell
#

I think it's fine. Nobody had anything to say other than agreement

#

Now, what about BryFtw's suggestion?

#

... It almost seems too obvious
Like, yeah of course we should do that

civic pond
#

seems like an oversight if anything(?)
i dont see any problems

void kelp
#

According to whomever programmed it, programming it to even work somewhat was hell

#

I’ll approve it but not sure if it’s plausible

proud tree
#

Whoever suggested boss summon roars is the GOAT

unreal viper
#

Buff the tarragon and bloodflare armor summoner helmet variants.

The tarragon and bloodflare armors are weaker in terms of their minion stats than stardust, and only give slightly better minion damage boosts to compensate. Stardust gives 5 minions and 66% increased minion damage, vs 4 minions and 71% increased minion damage for tarragon and 3 minions with 77% minion damage for bloodflare. Since these armors are after stardust in progression, and since stardust isn't a glass cannon armor, I find it odd that stardust is better than them in its damage stats. Due to this, the tarragon and bloodflare summoner sets should be buffed so that they are a straight upgrade to the players summoner abilities.

#

Does this look good?

#

@void kelp Does this look good?

void kelp
#

mhm

unreal viper
#

Thanks.

void kelp
#

anyone got any oppositions or feedback on recent suggestions?

hollow shell
#

Do the helmet's minions not compensate sufficiently for that loss

#

iirc people've said the Polter mines aren't great
but what about Tarragon's killaura?

unreal viper
#

I guess I should check that out.

distant gyro
#

it's a trend for all calamity summon armors ngl

#
  • less minion slots
  • more minion damage
  • summons <xyz> to damage your foes
unreal viper
#

Is the tarragon aura visible?

distant gyro
#

no

unreal viper
#

Guess I'll test the aura size tomorrow w cheatsheet then.

hollow shell
#

(ideally it should be but iunno if that's ever been sugg'd)

unreal viper
#

The 200 damage per frame looks insanely powerful. If the aura has good range, I'll change my sugg to focus on bloodflare.

hollow shell
#

(damn, 12000 DPS?)

dapper coral
#

that seems... a little high

hollow shell
#

I assume it's pretty close-range

dapper coral
#

yeah, because if its not then that is some serious damage potential

queen sail
#

Would you like to have everything near you vaporize

dapper coral
#

well, yes, but actually no

molten dune
#

"clothes should have sprites"

#

that has never been suggested before, ever

void kelp
#

main thing is that it should be requested to the article server iirc

dapper coral
#

how do

hollow shell
#

Just go in the pixel art channel and ask

dapper coral
#

i shall do that then

#

thanks

hollow shell
#

aighty, gl

dapper coral
#

i asked in the pixel art channel and they said that you cant request stuff

#

unless i'm in the wrong server, which is entirely possible

hollow shell
#

Wait really?
Calamity Art server, with the rainbow (mostly blue) thumbnail?

dapper coral
hollow shell
#

hm
We may have been erroneously redirecting people

I mean, it's not like we ever notified the art server people that we have this policy of being unable to suggest resprites

dapper coral
#

ah

hollow shell
#

We just kinda told people to go there and hoped for the best cuz it seemed logical, I guess

dapper coral
#

lol, fair enough

#

well maybe this is a good opportunity for me to get into spriting as well

#

although idk how long thats gonna take to learn

hollow shell
#

Usually takes a while
Especially if you wanna get really good at it, and have your submitted sprites be regularly accepted

dapper coral
#

thats what i thought, yeah

#

maybe ill wait till school's out before i start

#

so i actually have time to do it

hollow shell

aighty

digital saddle
#

I think totality breaker needs a big rework

hollow shell
#

It's getting explosion sprites soon, don't worry

#

(and as a result, lingering hitboxes)

digital saddle
#

I just think that being a Molotov cocktail when there are so many really cool and unique components to it is disappointing

hollow shell
#

ye, which is why it's gettin explosions
cuz 2 of its 4 ingredients have explosions

digital saddle
#

I also think supernova could be improved

#

The heavy arc aside, it's not particularly unique compared to other auric weapons

hollow shell
#

also getting an explosion

digital saddle
#

Its awkward to use vs scal also

lyric eagle
#

Has the concern yet been raised that it's much more difficult to get fetid essence/corrupt flask/ambrosial ampoule/ on corruption worlds than it is on crimson worlds, especially on Deathmode (due to multi-hp-bar worms). Between the devourer/world feeder seeming to spawn rarer than face monsters and herplings and the Deathmode-specific case of the corruption essence enemies being essentially mini-bosses unless you have a worm-destroying weapon, it makes it quite a bit harder to get than the bloodletting essence.

@dapper coral abyssal/lumenous amulets and iron boots just got player equip sprites very recently

dapper coral
#

oh really? awesome, wiki update time

#

unless its already there

dapper coral
#

btw @hollow shell , a guy DMed me from the art server and said he could try to make equip sprites for those items, just so you know (sorry for the ping, just wanted to know if there's anything else i need to do in the way of requesting sprites)

hollow shell
#

There isn't really an official process

#

Cool that someone's willing to do em

#

(here's hoping they're not also a beginning spriter)

foggy plover
#

isnt that literally a vanilla feature roastedtoast?

hollow shell
#

It doesn't always work 100% but yes that feature does exist

#

@open inlet Right click on the enemy with any summon weapon.

swift wadi
#

Also Rover, try to redirect people to ask for sprites specifically in the "Media" chat of Art Server

#

Psure a convo happened and the pixel art chat isn't for that

#

might wanna specify

hollow shell
#

A lil odd but alright, I can edit the Don'ts doc

swift wadi
#

you can ask mrrp if that's right too, they had the convo, I just overviewed it HDfailure

dapper coral
#

mhm, sounds like that was the final consensus on asking for sprites/resprites

hollow shell
#

aight

dapper coral
#

any disagreements with this list of potential equip sprites? sorry if this is the wrong channel, i'm not really sure where to put this stuff since it technically is involved with a sugg but also not really

#

now that i'm looking at it, this is a hell of a lot of potential sprites

sand umbra
#

if I received one dollar for every time I've seen people asking to make vanilla changes into a config

#

I would be a rich man

dapper coral
#

is it a dont?

hollow shell
#

It isn't, but it's always been a bit of a controversial one

sand umbra
#

yeah it's not strictly a don't, but it has historically been a heavy topic of contention amongst the Cal community for a variety of reasons

swift wadi
#

Shouldn't it be sent to the dev team or smth for a finalized decision

floral carbon
#

I'm new to Terraria modding, what's the problem with adding more choices for how to play the game? I understand the Don't of configs for death mode as that defeats the purpose of the mode, but...

queen delta
#

Thoughts?

swift wadi
#

I'd be down

crude geode
#

Sounds good

swift wadi
#

I'll send it in like 4 minutes it's not instantly sent

hollow shell
#

This is indeed an issue I have seen

#

It'd be good to be able to ping all available staff instead of having to ping one, wait, ping another, wait
until one replies

#

btw Adir's and Mann's suggs are gonna get yeeted in like 30 minutes
What were the issues with em?

swift wadi
#

I don't see why either would be an issue, but from an objective standpoint I think they're fine suggs

hollow shell
#

Mann was never pinged tho

swift wadi
#

Yes those are flaws with the core concept of the sugg, but we're supposed to send ones that are at least sendable no?

#

He heard the information and didn't feel that it was enough to make him remove his sugg, that's fine

hollow shell
#

yeah I spose it can just get rejected to hell by the devs, or go unstarred

#

I was thinking that the devs can just like
try to make it match better rather than exactly
like iirc we did with Leviathan one time

swift wadi
#

Yea. Reason you wouldn't star something =/= reason it shouldn't be sent

hollow shell
#

Alright then

swift wadi
#

At least that's my view on it

#

Feel free to correct me if wrong

subtle oracle
#

Or maybe it doesn't appeal to you

hollow shell
#

Also, a lotta people chimed in for Bee's sugg but it was never edited
I dunno if there was any prudent feedback

subtle oracle
#

or you don't think its necessary

swift wadi
#

If a sugg should be sent is normally objective

#

My subjective opinions on it do not matter unless they break a rule I enforce

crude geode
#

iirc pinkie mentioned that the Proper Providence Hitbox suggestion would be a lot of work, and could possibly ruin the viability of other weapons against Providence in the process of making one weapon easier to use against her, that isn't even unviable currently.

swift wadi
#

that's a reason for Devs to not accept it, not a reason to not be passed

crude geode
#

Not from what I see

hollow shell
#

It's just a really weird request

#

but, nothing wrong with it

crude geode
#

Seaweed being able be caught in a sky lake HDhurdur

swift wadi
crude geode
#

Not really?

#

just some personal opinions around it, it's valid tho

swift wadi
hollow shell
#

The thing he needed to edit about his sugg was he accidentally merges two tiers in his explanation

#

They get buffed after a Mech and after Golem
but he only mentions the Mech buff

#

@ashen warren

swift wadi
hollow shell
#

I'd prefer if he used the wiki image but it seems okay

crude geode
#

^

ashen warren
#

Oh, should I go and change that?

hollow shell
#

Yes

ashen warren
#

Right I just changed it.

hollow shell
#

"This is why I think it should be buffed a second time, "
this still needs changing

ashen warren
#

Done.

hollow shell
#

aight
I think it looks good now

crude geode
#

As much as I despise the idea of OOA being required, the suggestion is valid.

crude geode
#

Uh

#

Isn’t that just

#

The summoner targeting circle?

onyx river
#

Well it's already a vanilla feature

crude geode
#

Nvm

#

Ignore that brain dead moment.

hollow shell
#

He was pinged

#

awaiting response

crude geode
#

I still feel like that’s unnecessary with summoning circle tbh

#

And by summoning circle I mean summoner right click

hollow shell
#

I think they just don't know the right click feature exists

crude geode
#

Yeah

onyx river
#

Looks like it yeah

#

I mean not like it's obvious anywhere in game i think

hollow shell
#

@charred perch Why at the end of the Boss Rush?

#

(I don't think you really need to specify how it's obtained)

charred perch
#

yeah

#

true

crude geode
#

The boss rush doesn’t really have anything to do with him

onyx river
#

Yeah doesn't really make sense thematically

charred perch
#

yeah maybe yharon

onyx river
#

It's a challenge by Xeroc

#

If i'm not mistaken

crude geode
#

Believe so ye

charred perch
#

yeah im pretty sur

#

e

unkempt bolt
#

very rare and tied to boss rush

onyx river
#

*Welp here goes another 10 mins of my life"

crude geode
#

I think just making the drop not specific would be good to fix this.

charred perch
#

oke

#

you have been oppeased

#

I thought of this because my characters supposed to look like yharim

#

but nothing looks like the helm

onyx river
#

Yeah i mean not many people roleplay in terraria i think but it will def help them

charred perch
#

yeah but cool helmet what else can you ask for

hollow idol
#

ancient auric PensiveCore

charred perch
#

that woulb be a good name

#

would*

hollow idol
swift wadi
#

isnt this SIS

hollow idol
#

there was an approved yharim vanity sug so

#

and an approved cultist assassin vanity

swift wadi
#

Huh

charred perch
#

oooh cool

#

i didnt see the yharim one so i technically broke one of the rules

crude geode
#

YuH really just be out here being the omniscient god of calamity changes/leaks

#

Also SIS usually need to have a name, sprite, and such and such to be classified as such. An idea like “Dyes based on Boss Screen Overlays/Shaders” is fine, since it’s not specific enough and doesn’t provide examples.

hollow idol
#

smh im not omniscient, im still trying to find the exact version the celestial claymore was added and its giving me a headache ech

onyx river
#

You're doing an history section in the wiki or you're just looking for the fun?

hollow idol
#

fun

swift wadi
#

Good?

onyx river
#

It's kinda ech

hollow shell
#

I have big doubts it'll get approved by the devs
but I guess it's valid?

swift wadi
#

Yeah doesn't break a don't and has a reason

#

What did we decide for Mann's?

dapper coral
#

Seems fine, just more sprite work tho

gray nebula
#

I thought that making a config to revert vanilla changes was in the dont's

hollow shell
#

Nah

#

The only config Don't is Death Mode stuff

gray nebula
#

huh

#

people still suggest it semi regularly and it never gets accepted tho FeelsMeowMan

crude geode
#

It’s definitely a weird situation.

hollow shell
#

If this sugg eats shit then I'll consider adding it to the Don'ts
considering iirc it usually doesn't go over well whenever it comes up

swift wadi
#

Toast's is pending and I refuse to pass Report's

#

Over bad reasoning

hollow shell
#

Alright now question

wooden wedge
#

most likely

swift wadi
#

Hm, it's not exact, but it correlates

#

I'd say yes

dapper coral
#

Assuming this Yharim vanity would be a different version of auric Tesla, then yes

gray nebula
#

kinda, the only distinctive yharim set piece there is is the mask

#

auric armor works for the rest of the body - the cape

hollow shell
#

(btw yes indeed)
@burnt spade You still gotta edit your sugg, it's very weak and arguable/incorrect at the moment

swift wadi
#

I blue checked it, is that all I gotta do?

hollow shell
#

Yeah

dapper coral
#

Is this fine for the list of equip sprites?

#

Ik it’s quite a lot

swift wadi
#

can I make a list of suggs over 120 stars and ping a dev or smth?

hollow shell
#

You could categorize a bit

dapper coral
#

True, I guess I can do it by tier?

#

Or maybe class

crude geode
#

Type of accessory

#

Necklace, Back, Head, Waist, etc.

dapper coral
#

That would also be important dunno how tf I didn’t think of that for an equip sprite list

hollow shell
#

Yeah I meant by what type it is

#

Necklace, Shield, etc

dapper coral
#

Okay awesome, thanks for the idea

#

I’ll send that to the guy tomorrow and then we’ll see what happens

hollow shell
#

aight

crude geode
#

Had a weird idea, and would need to draft it, but I was thinking about how it’s very difficult to learn boss patterns if you don’t actively look at the wiki and the boss tips pages. What if the guide (or some other npc) gave tips for bosses? Such as warning about the bullet hell phase of Provi, the dash phase of Yharon, etc.

hollow shell
#

Perhaps

floral carbon
#

Isn't that just part of learning a new boss? Like Plantera going rage mode for the first time or finding out Moonlord gives the middle finger to normal health regen stuff

I feel like there’s a point at which something should be learned vs communicated. For example, you can learn the hard way about Provi’s bullet hell and negative healing gimmicks. On the contrary, it may be hard to figure out that the cause of the random Debuff causing deaths in the fight is getting too far away from her

#

I actually think a fix to that would be a particle ring showing the radius that you have to stay in around her (like the abomination in Fargo’s souls), but that’s not the point of the suggestion

crude geode
#

didn’t you make a sugg about that
Certain things can be hard for the player to learn, and I don’t think a player should be forced out of the game for knowledge about a boss. It’s a common thing for most games nowadays, but I feel like we have a npc that can help players already in the game, so why not utilize him?

I put that suggestion in here, but got no feedback so didn’t actually post it

crude geode
#

Ty YuH. I think those provide a good example of how the guide can help provide players with a bit of knowledge about a boss’ key mechanics before they actually fight them.

trim raptor
#

Never saw any description of those fights before other than that Yharim was just over player sized

#

The more I think about it, the more I think Draedon as a ML style fight would be dope as hell. (Yes I’ve seen the don’ts, this is 100% not a suggestion)

hollow idol
#

Draedon just sends his exo mechs to fight you as far as we know

#

i've heard conflicting things about if he will actually be in the fight at all

trim raptor
#

I feel like he should be, but I’m not too caught up with the planned features

hollow idol
#

he's a nerd, nerds dont fight, even if the fight is named after them smh

crude geode
#

Draedon doesn’t seem like the type of person to actually fight the Terrarian tbh

#

Also yes what YuH said

hollow idol
#

but anyways, this is suggestions

crude geode
#

Yes

#

I probably won’t suggest anything right, just cuz I can’t form coherent thoughts, but I’ll prolly whip something up later

gray nebula
#

about that one big list of equipables that need sprites it's really not needed FeelsMeowMan

#

The spriters can figure out what needs a sprite themselves, theyre just too lazy

hollow idol
#

dump them in sprites needed then

gray nebula
#

sprites needed
lol peeposadcat

#

i dont want to deny 5 submissions per accessory until a dev finally makes one themselves

dapper ferry
#

Oooh I like the idea of a Yharim vanity

gray nebula
#

just wait for yharim to get added and use his mask wegud

hollow idol
#

or use a texture pack

dapper ferry
#

I'mmana rip and tear all of Yharim's guts

Starcore change has been suggested a few times

People: Make more unique boss spawns!
*Deus has a unique boss spawn
People: Make it so you can ignore unique boss spawns!

SAD poor unique boss spawns

subtle oracle

Killing atlases is pretty unique, dont you think

#

More unique than consuming a summoner

smh can we change cosmic worm tbh, the only reason its like it is is because it was invented when DoG was a destroyer clone ech

What would be an alternative to it??

Any ideas at all YuH

Not all items have to be faithful to Vanilla

piggy is only flipped like it is for vanilla consistency

subtle oracle
#

But I can see it. I sort off agree with this yuh

hollow idol
#

actually hold up it isnt consistent with vanilla

#

why the heck is piggy flipped ech

toxic kettle
#

Because apparently NPCs always face left and items always face right

Wait

dapper ferry

Killing 50 Piggies should spawn a really angry piggy

Oh god that suggestion was in the dark days of SIS

smh why did this sug get approved but not all the hive pet sugs ech

smh ech

#

Roasted toast you do know that summoners have a rightclick

dry grotto
#

i'm sad that sug never made it in tho

#

approved but never implemented

runic kite
#

quite of a few calamity summon weapons don’t have right-click functionality though oddly

sinful steeple
#

Have you ever right clicked with a summon weapon

dry grotto
#

yes

#

everyone has

sinful steeple
#

Then why did they ask to add something so that summons can be ordered to target something

#

Because if they have ever right clicked with a summon weapon they would know that's already in the game

tepid root
#

quite of a few calamity summon weapons don’t have right-click functionality though oddly
sounds like a bug/oversight

sand umbra
#

some summons just ignore targeting entirely

#

and some weapons don't have the ability to target in the first place because their right-click does something else

#

e.g. Igneous Exaltation's right-click does not target, but rather launches all blades orbiting you

unreal cypress
#

Siren is annoying. I spam her with right click and my summons completely ignore her

tepid root
#

i mean what would igneous exaltation targetting even do lol

tawny gyro

nah, that'd be stupid

@sage granite specific item suggestions (SIS) aren't allowed currently

sage granite
#

Oh, My apologies

gray nebula
#

SIS

#

pogu

manic vessel
#

A better way to rephrase your suggestion would be to say: There should be a variety of post mech summon weapons dropped by the mechanical bosses

#

you would have to have adequate reasoning tho

terse sundial
#

If you want to rephrase it go ahead

#

just edit the suggestion

sage granite
#

Me and wording are like a swimming pool full of people and a live electronical wire about to fall in

terse sundial
#

nice

sage granite
#

In short: Terrible

#

I'll redo it

manic vessel
#

The only loophole I see is having a good reason.

#

Calamity adds a lot of summon weapons but if you have a good reason go ahead.

sage granite
#

Maybe all 3 can be combined later to make some sort of hybrid using all 3

#

Or just make them bigger, Summon all 3 at onces for 4 slots

#

No idea, I like pushing ideas, No idea if they are even useful

raven meadow
#

That's a great idea that I don't think needs any reasoning. It's just cool

#

It's not a balance or recipe change, not everything needs reasoning

civic pond
#

is this implying worm summon

dry latch
#

everything needs a reason lmao

#

the only time cool can apply is for vanity

raven meadow
#

Have you ever created anything large? Most things (in games at least) get added without much reasoning

#

Because they just seem right/cool

dry latch
#

it's part of the rules bruv

#

it's for efficiency

raven meadow
#

Can't deny that

#

But calamity devs will miss out on a couple of really cool suggestions

#

Not like I have a better way of doing this

dry latch
#

thing is, cool is subjective. that's why they ask for a valid reason. to make it objective

analog radish
#

I don’t know if other players feel the same way, but I think Polterghast is way too easy. I was thinking maybe Polterghast dashing towards the player more often would be a good change. Again, I don’t know how other people feel about the boss so idk if that would be a good change.

sage granite
#

My only reasoning why is the Twins get a minion summon item, It makes sense you could say reprogram the other 2 mechs to work for you as a minion

raven meadow
#

That's why we have voting. It's still subjective, but the devs see if the majority think this way.

sage granite
#

You can control Calamitas and her brother's, A robot wouldn't be a stretch

frail mantle
#

"it makes sense" isn't really good reasoning for an item suggestion

dry latch
#
  • but the majority isn't always right
  • devs aren't obligated to push through the suggestions, so subjectivity will be on their side
sage granite
#

Maybe I should stop making suggestions 😅 I've made a few and all ended badly 🤣

raven meadow
#

Nobody is obligated to do anything here, that's not what I'm saying. But suggestions already operate on the idea of majority voting, so this wouldn't be much of a change. Besides, if you really look at it, everything is subjective, some may find the reasoning given enough, some don't.

Again, I get the problem, and I'm not proposing that we should remove the current rules.

kindred nexus
#

No, they’re pretty cool.

#

(Your suggestions)

sage granite
#

Interesting idea on the wings

#

Auric wings I guess

junior wasp
#

I just sort of thought that that could be how you craft drew's wings, y'know, instead of them dropping from yharon, which feels a bit forced in my opinion

sage granite
#

I can see your point

proud tree
#

Do you guys think polterghast is too easy, too hard, or just fine

karmic stone
#

I think it's ok with any class that isn't Melee

proud tree
#

Yeah

#

The general consensus is basically that

#

What if the fight had harder to dodge bullets?

#

Because as melee and even true melee you can camp the entire fight without having to worry about anything and demolish him with adrenaline

sage granite
#

Polterghast is a lil easy, It stays at a distance like Plantera, shoots at you like Plantera, Only difference is you get the circling claws around you that fire orbs that if focused on are simple to avoid......So my answer is yes

proud tree
#

I think necroplasm should rush at you more and necroghast should have.. I dunno, exploding bullets?

sage granite
#

Homing maybe but not exploding, Doesn't sound right for a boss like that given its origin

proud tree
#

Good point

sage granite
#

Maybe it fires plasm at you that if you dodge will go into a portal looking thing then spawn behind you and charge, If that misses it'll become something extra you need to kill

proud tree
#

But either way it should punish you way more for getting close to it

#

Oh yeah

#

That's actually a great idea you had

#

But yeah, as it stands polterghast is completely free for melee because of the lack of punishment from getting close to it

#

And its too easy for all classes in general

sage granite
#

Especially given its a post-ML boss

proud tree
#

Yeah

#

Lol someone posted earlier today that they "kinda accidentally killed polterghast" as their first post ML boss

#

So that goes to show
