""Everyone plays expert"" so it is fine now

deft yew
#

not like you particularly need stuff like absorber for normal anyway HDfailure

wooden wedge
#

player issue,

fossil finch
#

indeed

#

thats why i'm saying it

wooden wedge
#

also I like really doubt that craw carapace is that much harder to get in hardmode if its spawn rate isn't even touched

#

(which I really doubt it is)

fossil finch
#

the quotes are to remark the 3 people that do not play expert to this day

wooden wedge
#

lol

deft yew
earnest raptor
deft yew
#

I sat in a giant open cave with 10x spawnrate for quite some time and got two shellies, no drop

wooden wedge
deft yew
#

That could be it. Not entirely sure

wooden wedge
#

if it's not how it works or similar then I gave vanilla too much credit

deft yew
earnest raptor
deft yew
#

Meanwhile hardmode scaling “”system”” making shellies hit harder than armored skeletons

earnest raptor
#

it's not like green slime with 200 damage

loud cloak
#

oh did i write the amalgam?

deft yew
#

Every time except the last one, ye

loud cloak
#

ok read through the whole thing will just delete the sugg

hollow shell
#

aight.

loud cloak
#

i still think it would be a good idea to boost sea snail spawn rates though, bc they are still exceedingly rare, and still painful to farm in hardmode

hollow shell
#

You can suggest that

deft yew
#

This but with crawdad and shelly

hollow shell
#

(I don't know exactly how possible spawn rate modification is, but we can try)

#

Sea Snails are definitely rarer than those two

loud cloak
#

shelly and crawdad are super common in prehard but i haven't seena single one in hardmode

loud cloak
deft yew
#

Post-ML iirc

loud cloak
#

oh ok

loud cloak
#

that might be different cus they are an anemy variant

grim tusk

guys

#

needs only 2 more

lets vote it in

grim tusk
#

And im not scrolling any further lmao

torn crown
#

Has anyone suggested for ripper/stealth UI's to be optionally transparent in the config?

grim tusk
grim tusk
#

Sounds like a good idea though

torn crown
#

It seems way too simple and viable to be passed up so I had some doubts

grim tusk
#

@sonic anvil formatting and more reasoning

#

Give the sugg a title

#

And expand on the reasoning

#

You know you could have just edited the suggestion rather than deleting it?

torn crown
#

Suggestion Draft: Add a transparency option for Adrenaline, Rage, and Stealth Bars in the config

The meters' opaqueness can take up a part of the screen. In most cases, they are placed on the sides in to maximize what the player can see. Adding an option to make them as transparent as the user wants them to be would not only solve the problem of the meters blocking the view, but would also make having them in the center of the screen a viable option

#

Something I whipped up in 5-ish minutes

#

You think it's good enough to be posted?

sonic anvil
deft yew
#

also um

grim tusk
deft yew
#

level meters increase proficiency gains

grim tusk
#

Also yes

#

Address those

sonic anvil
#

I am aware level meters increase that, but I still feel like it's too slow of an increase

#

and I did mention that I had a level meter for each test run for each class

torn crown
#

I usually don't care much about proficiency, they pop up and I go "oh cool"

Also proficiency's getting a fat nerf in 1.5

sonic anvil
#

I called it a stat meter by mistake, cus I didn't remember what it was called

torn crown
torn crown
#

clearly there's not much to go wrong in ultimatesmug

#

If any

grim tusk
#

Yep if it aint broke dont fix it

sonic anvil
#

It wouldn't even be that big of an issue if the proficiency system didn't give you class buffs

#

if it was just completely cosmetic, it'd be fine

hollow shell
#

"with how important Proficiency is to Calamity"

#

hm

#

The sugg overall seems fine though

fossil finch
#

It isn't that important at all I'd say

#

Mostly next update

#

And

#

Most would tell you that farming proficiency is jusy

#

Playing the game

deft yew
#

@loud cloak btw there IS a way to stop ??? from spawning by the time you can make the absorber and there still will be in 1.5

fossil finch
#

By playing the game alone you already get all proficiency levels needed

fossil finch
#

Maybe not all of the post moonlord one but that has to do with a lack of enemies to kill

loud cloak
#

(lore doesnt work at all)

fossil finch
#

Lore does work

loud cloak
#

it doesnt work in multiplayer

hollow shell
#

I noticed that it doesn't work in Multiplayer at least

#

yeah

loud cloak
#

and its rally buggy

fossil finch
#

It does if all players have it on afaik

hollow shell
#

I don't think so, no

deft yew
#

doesn't work in multi

fossil finch
#

In any case you still have to mention it

deft yew
#

nothing works in multi so i'll give you that one HDfailure

loud cloak
#

true

fossil finch
#

Because it does exist and it does work, just not in mp

loud cloak
#

plus lores are being removed anyways

#

in 1.5

hollow shell
#

Nah

loud cloak
#

(lore effect)

hollow shell
#

The ones for boss spawn preventions will stay

loud cloak
#

aren't they?

hollow shell
#

on new items

loud cloak
#

ohhh hmm

hollow shell
#

All other lore item effects are leaving.

deft yew
#

except cryo lore which goes to ornate shield

loud cloak
#

ill mention that specifically for multiplayer ig?

deft yew
loud cloak
#

i think it is

#

which is why the sggestion isn't to fix the bug, but to boost the spawn rat4es

hollow shell
#

Instead of sayin "and there is no way to prevent it from spawning" you could say "and the only way to prevent it from spawning is a post-Leviathan lore item, which doesn't even work in multiplayer"

#

or somethin along those lines

loud cloak
#

sounds good

hollow shell
#

Actually iunno how well it'd go over mentioning a current bug as part of the sugg reasoning

#

I do not know if its fixed for 1.5

#

I can try to find out

deft yew
#

yknow absorber is only craftable post-cultist right?

#

so the post-levi part is a non-issue

hollow shell
#

This is true
however Sea Shell is still an item that exists with an effect

#

s'not just an ingredient

loud cloak
#

sea shell is mainly good really early on

hollow shell
#

(even though for all intents and purposes... it is just an ingredient)

loud cloak
#

and it's almost harder to grind it in pre-hm due to lack of zerg pots

loud cloak
hollow shell
#

The bug isn't mentioned on the doc

loud cloak
#

which doc?

hollow shell
#

bugdoc

loud cloak
#

the bugs read pins one i presume

#

yea

#

so is it ok to mention or not

hollow shell
#

Sure I grant you my official permission to mention it

loud cloak
#

im also debating suggesting to add a useful function for slime rain, though im not sure if that falls into the "dont" for new events

hollow shell
#

Nah, it would not

#

s'not a new event after all

loud cloak
#

true, but it would be kind of like an overhaul of the event, which could count

hollow shell
#

.. what do you have in mind

grim tusk
#

i hope that doesnt suffer the same fate as the blizzard suggestion

loud cloak
#

it wouldn't be anything ridiculous like "add a new boss" or "add tiered progression items & new equipment" and stuff, not fully developed yet, but it would be smth related to slime grinding

loud cloak
grim tusk
loud cloak
#

that one seems a bit too ambitious and specific at the same time

#

so wouldnt be like that

glass sentinel
#

#suggestions-voting message
this may seem like me being a pedant, but doesnt this sugg need the chequered flag, since its been added, no?

hollow shell
#

Has that been confirmed

#

Ah I suppose so?

dapper coral
#

doesnt sound like it's added yet though

fossil finch
#

also, that is only for phase 2

#

while the sugg refers to spawn

glass sentinel
#

apparently i cant read

#

great job me

dapper coral
#

it be like that sometimes

glass sentinel
#

it do be like that

frail mantle
#

No

#

The lorde stopped being funny roughly three hours after he was added

ruby plover
#

also iirc there is a rule to not suggest past content

frail mantle
#

Correct

#

especially things like the lorde

hollow shell
#

@edgy yew Bad.

mighty knot
#

what rover said

glass sentinel
#

could we at least reintroduce the NO U debuff?

frail mantle
#

No

glass sentinel

@broken current no upcoming content

hollow shell
#

She already has something special for her dash

ashen warren
#

An idea that I had that may have been said before by others, is to maybe change Calamitas' name to Calamitas Clone or Clonelamitas and change Scal's name to Calamitas. It doesn't make much sense how you figure out because it just randomly says "The Calamitas Clone has been defeated!" and doesn't explain how you figured it out. Maybe her dialogue has been changed to infer she is a clone in 1.5 but I dunno.

#

I don't know if the devs planned to change it when she gets resprited, maybe they have said but I have no clue.

hollow shell
#

There's the lore item that drops from her on first kill which explains that she's a clone

ashen warren
#

Yeah, but you won't have read it yet.

#

I dunno just an idea.

hollow shell
#

I don't think it's too big a deal to have the "narrator" of the status messages glean some new info

wooden wedge
hollow shell
#

It does inform the player of other events that happen in the world

hollow shell
ashen warren
#

And Sandstone did you quit as a moderator?

wooden wedge
#

I don't see what difference it makes if it was instant or like 2 seconds after

ashen warren
#

It doesn't matter that much more of an idea.

hollow shell
#

@old storm You need to explain why an item like that should be in the mod

hollow shell
#

There are a few self-hurt weapons in the mod already, but they're not usually used for big damage trade-offs
Lucrecia has self-hurt because it grants i-frames, Nullification Pistol and Matter Manipulator have self-hurt because they're funny gimmick weapons
and I think Thorn Blossom is just for thematics

hollow shell
#

(That, and True Melee tends to invoke riskier gameplay anyway, cuz you need to get close to a boss/enemy to use those kinds of weapons)

old storm
#

it was mostly a passing thought but i think it could work if done properly

hollow shell
#

mm.
Passing thought suggestions aren't really recommended, especially if they start with a cool item idea first and then you try to work in why it'd benefit the mod afterward

#

This isn't the worst offender but the reasoning still could use more to it

grim tusk
#

Simple use everclear while using melee

loud cloak
#

btw, the suggestion bot is down, right

hollow shell
#

Why do you ask

#

Ah

#

Just realized those sugg-posting posts were from yesterday and not earlier today

loud cloak
#

Yeaaaa

#

Not sure why that’s happening (why the bot is down)

keen zealot
#

might have to notify brav to notify amber

loud cloak
#

Oh amber does the bot

hollow shell

#

@uncut quiver You won't need to worry about that next update. The Paladin's Hammer line is becoming melee only.

uncut quiver
#

oh

#

I'll miss my funny galaxy smasher

#

No need for that suggestion then, I'll go delete it

hollow shell
#

ye ye

#

(And don't worry, you didn't miss that info. It was not in changelogs)

uncut quiver
#

yea I checked changelogs to make sure no conflicting info was stated, so I was a little confused

#

But it’s fine, makes sense

visual sparrow
#

Did I have ping or something, when my sugestion was accepted or canceled?

hollow shell
#

Nah you aren't pinged for that.

#

A little over an hour left before the dev vote's finalized on your sugg

visual sparrow
#

Okay, can u ping me in this channel about my suggestion, please?

grim tusk
#

Maybe you just got randomly ghost pinged

#

I was

#

Today

hollow shell
#

Not an invalid suggestion but it conflicts with Fab's idea of what Proficiency should be

ashen warren
#

Terraria is a gear based game, I think having significantly lower damage because you speedran through a lot of the game is kinda dumb.

keen zealot
hollow shell
#

Ah yes it would

#

I was searching for items in specific

keen zealot
#

It's nonspecific and a year old so I still don't blame them

#

but you are technically incorrect on the internet so HDfailure

unique reef
#

i like proficiency as is

#

i just want it faster

fossil finch
#

idk man you get it pretty fast

#

just playing the game™️ (Copyrighted) already yields about all proficiency you need reasonably

#

wait did this person unironically say that proficiency could give ranger homing on all projectiles as an example

#

i know it is an example but this is basically zero sense of the arbitrary way of balancing terraria i think of

#

failure

grim tusk
fossil finch
#

(which kinda means it is not gonna be accepted anyways much probably mayhaps)

torn crown
#

Maybe the sugg can try a different direction than a flatout proficiency damage boost?

cobalt pewter
#

It's not violating any don'ts, the proficiency thing

#

But it might be a fairly warm take

earnest raptor
#

RPG mods are all bad, except Leveled.

exotic stag
#

i dont think i ever posted it lol

#

it was about giving other optional ways to gain proficiency that allow it to be seen by players. while not going out of its way to be just fighting

loud cloak
#

iirc, proficiency is meant to be a fairly minor buff to the class, like it's not a huge thing

karmic stone
#

consider that it has like no drawback so buffing it because yea would be funny

#

if your pt gets long enough for whatever reason you can currently get an almost emblem's worth of damage for existing

torn crown
unique reef
#

As a summoner, I feel I am kicked in the butt by the nerf

fossil finch
#

not really

#

wow -2 summon slots

#

completely useful when all the lategame ones require more than that

grim tusk
#

And most summons are getting buffed to compensate

#

Either by stats or cost reduction, likely both

#

No more dumb min maxing minion slots

deft yew
#

Now that I think about it

#

Why do other classes gain proficiency slower now, except for summoner which gets it really fast already?

lucid flare
#

i feel like you may have misinterpreted something

slow spruce
hollow shell
#

? Yeah since when did we say they gain proficiency slower?

#

@deft yew

#

It's referring to the benefits of proficiency levels

deft yew
#

Oh, stat gains, sorry lo

lucid flare
#

yeah they're just lesser gains instead of being slower

deft yew
#

I would guess slot shaving will help summoners not get proficiency so fast?

hollow shell
#

Technically yes? But it was more so just a direct power nerf

#

Summoner always benefited from proficiency way more per level, compared to other classes

#

cuz of the slots

fossil finch
#

Did you know because of how proficiency gain works summoners do get it faster

hollow shell
#

Yes Ender that is what Lankynel is talking about

deft yew
hollow shell
#

Indeed, hence their removal

slow spruce
#

Maybe instead of taking away all slots from summoner prof you could gain 1 at max level?

deft yew
#

I bet I’ll hardly be able to fit an immaterializer lol

#

Or did its requirement get reduced

earnest raptor
#

I mean

fossil finch
#

Immaterializer comes first anyways

earnest raptor
#

vanilla equipment can get immaterializer slots

hollow shell
#

The testers would pick up on something like that, dw

exotic stag
#

should i still suggest my proficiency suggestion from a while ago that i had?

#

the one with optional ways to get it other then fighting

hollow shell
#

Yeah maybe

#

Did you ever fully suggest it or no?

exotic stag
#

no

#

i've been thinking how to word it

dapper coral
uncut quiver
#

@hollow shell was it ever specified where the MOAB change puts it now in the progression?

wooden wedge
#

I really disagree with this sugg

#

the MOAB is already pretty strong as-is is it not

hollow shell
#

"You could even make it combine with something like an Abyssal Mirror and make a hybrid upgrade called the DDT."
alright that's a bit too much there

wooden wedge
#

also i brought this up in VC and it was denied by everyone lol

hollow shell
#

But, I do like the idea of having jumps be a viable alternative to wings throughout the game

#

Give the player some mobility options

sleek wadi
#

MOAB upgrades and wingless tread upgrades would be nice

wooden wedge
#

just use normal set wings

ashen warren
#

It might make Defiled a bit easier, unless it also counts as wings.

wooden wedge
#

at the point you have wing treads the other wing options all pretty much have a higher horizontal mobility modifier don't they

#

also movement speed is getting fixed next update iirc so there's that

fossil finch
#

Moab upgrades (fake

uncut quiver
#

I just feel like after ML your only wing option is winged treads which feels wack (unless im missing some cool wings I could be crafting)

ashen warren
uncut quiver
#

i didnt see any god slayer wings, might be a blind mf tho

ashen warren
#

There's 4 post-ml wings.

uncut quiver
uncut quiver
#

although I will go look at the other ones

hollow shell
uncut quiver
#

yea I just removed that off-the-wall one

fossil finch
#

Godslayer will get wings next update

#

Or well a jetpack

#

Or well a hoverboard

#

Idk don't ask don't know

#

In any case the difference between wings and tracers usually make wings better for the most part

uncut quiver
#

mmm fair

#

still, late game MOAB upgrade would be sick

#

normal wings give stats and winged boots are just overall good, but there’s nothing for bottle enthusiasts past the MOAB (using MOAB with unicorn mount is amazing, so many jumps)

hollow shell
fossil finch
#

I mean if they're not next update they're supposedly coming, aren't they?

hollow shell
#

Yes we do eventually want to add them, but I don't think we got acceptable sprites in time

#

for 1.5 at least

uncut quiver
wooden wedge
#

well yeah it's a early hardmode item

#

why tf would you expect it to be useable post ML

uncut quiver
#

Well you’re using it as an argument to say why it shouldn’t get a post ML upgrade

#

Which confuses me

wooden wedge
#

you were the one who compared it to seraph tracers

uncut quiver
#

ok i admit my sentence in the sugg was confusing

#

What i mean is that the moab can’t compare to post ML options bc it just doesn’t get the opportunity to

#

Winged boots get to scale, wings get to scale, but MOAB gets left behind

wooden wedge
#

well yeah if it could it'd be broken

uncut quiver
#

really? would a MOAB upgrade be broken?

#

Im not talking about buffing the moab here

#

Im just talking about giving it an upgrade

wooden wedge
#

...pretty much it'd be broken

uncut quiver
#

could you explain bc i don’t see how

wooden wedge
#

jump speed OP

uncut quiver
#

huh

#

fair enough i guess

#

Don’t know enough about jump speed to really argue so I’ll just take your word for it

#

(Still gonna keep the suggestion because I think it’d be cool)

crystal iron
# wooden wedge jump speed OP

Correct me if I'm wrong but Doesn't jump speed only make a noticeable difference to flight speed. And since you can't equip both the moab and wings it shouldn't be a problem

uncut quiver
#

i dont even know what jump speed affects bc i barely felt the difference, even with the aero stone

#

i just thought it affects how fast you go up

#

when jumping

deft yew
#

MOAB is weird because its boost is weaker than frog leg and also disables frog leg

#

On top of crapping with extra jumps because it’s wings

ashen warren
#

Moab is just

#

Not worth using

keen zealot
#

too janky

deft yew
#

It is normally but it’s hard to use
Defiled ruins it but why would you use wings in defiled anyways lol

hollow shell
keen zealot
#

if you removed the rocket boots/wings effect but still made it count as wings it would be more useful

#

unironically

fossil finch
#

You use other type or wings on defiled

#

Like fin wings that are GOD jumpspeed

#

Or statboosting ones

keen zealot
#

also don't make it block fleg please

ashen warren
#

Moab isn't worth using over fin wings and bob

#

Esp with frog leg too

gray venture
#

so true

uncut quiver
#

even tho MOAB is jank I still like it with unicorn

#

dash into unicorn for that big speed then just jump around with 4 jumps

#

and it saved my ass in PBG by letting me adjust to its direction changes in its diagonal dashes (where just using wings would have gotten me hit bc wings have to cancel the downward momentum before they start bringing me up)

#

of course if I was by myself I could just react to it adjusting but multiplayer moment + sometimes you're not always gonna predict right so having that sudden movement in a pinch is nice

grim tusk
#

if anything a MOAB upgrade would add is fart on a balloon, Pink balloon and some more flight time

#

but considering the amount of jump boost it already grants

#

only more flight time and flight speed seems reasonable

#

anything else would be pretty fucking busted

uncut quiver
#

who is jump god?

#

sounds interesting

sleek turret
#

jump god is a loadout

#

based on min-maxing jump speed

uncut quiver
#

oh

#

damn that sounds neat

grim tusk
sleek turret
#

ofc it would be if its min-maxed to hell

grim tusk
#

Jumping from bottom of the world to top sounds ridiculous, idk how Kirn did it

uncut quiver
#

a lot of springs of course

deft yew
#

…again how did that proficiency sugg get through

crude geode
#

iirc it's technically valid?

hollow shell
#

Yes it is valid, it just conflicts with what Fab thinks proficiency should be
It can still get sent to the dev server and potentially open up the opportunity for a dev discussion about it

#

I know we've told suggs to get deleted cuz it conflicted with dev visions before, so sorry for the inconsistent rulings

slow spruce
#

Do we know where moab was moved in progression?

fossil finch
#

It would still be post 3 mechs like originally?

#

Idk why'd they change that

small timber
#

if exactly "by a tier" probably post plantera

fossil finch
#

No?

slow spruce
#

If they're buffing it then maybe post planterra but I thought they were nerfing it?

fossil finch
#

Did they move moab and i completely missed it

small timber
#

9 - Moved MOAB up a tier by making the player acquire it later.

#

don't know how to forward the message sorry

#

oh wrong one

fossil finch
#

That's from 2019

hollow shell
#

That is indeed from 2019

slow spruce
#

says buffed in 2020? which update would that be?

#

that's draedon it says

hollow shell
#

The jump speed boost (#269) will indeed be 1.5

hot zephyr
#

MOAB was good on the live build and is even better on the test build but it's an acquired taste tbh

#

Having an upgrade would be interesting just add more variety to wing types

#

Although it could probably get out of hand fast

#

I'm neutral on this

brisk bramble
#

Naaaaaah
Hooks better imo

thick river
#

I think its nice to have lots of different options for mobility

brisk bramble
#

Hook flinging is bae.
Bit ig if ya pair it with jump speed
It wpuld be awsome

@distant gate The biome name's Brimstone Crags, and the block is Brimstone Slag

#

Otherwise a fine suggestion

distant gate
#

Ok

hollow shell
#

The slag has a special texture that's different from most other textures that have those kinds of transitions
but we might be able to work something out?

distant gate
#

Fixed

#

Names are now correct

#

Maybe

#

dreaded slag styled sheeting

sonic anvil
#

Is it just me or does Slag sound like a slur of some kind?

ripe owl
#

Um

#

Fabsol said that proficiency never was ment to be a big ass upgrade

#

It's just little boosts to your offensive stats and that's literally it

#

That's why minion slots from proficiency levels were removed

hollow shell
#

Mhm

ripe owl
#

I am right, right?

hollow shell
#

Yeah the suggestion does indeed conflict with Fab's desires

ripe owl
#

Oh sorry didn't see that

  • Incorrect format.
  • No reasoning.
  • Uh, you unsure there?
hollow shell
#

@limpid lotus You need to provide reasoning with your suggestion, separated from a top topic/summary line using a line break (Shift+Enter)

#

You can see the two suggestions above yours for reference

frozen hornet
#

Exo mech blueprints for a painting could be cool

ruby plover
#

i feel like that would be a cool thing for calamity's vanities

they already have blueprints for regular mechs, auric armour, aureus, and some other things

@alpine fjord changes to demonshade armor and the stats of exo armor have already been decided

hollow shell
#

And also, Exo armor future content

as is Demonshade's move to SCal

You can suggest stuff related to that once 1.5 is out

alpine fjord
#

ah

candid grove
#

@copper coyote do you mean the angler

#

also other npcs don't have shops either

hollow shell
#

Notably the Nurse

#

and yeah he is the Angler, not Fisherman

candid grove
#

and guide and tax collector

hollow shell
#

Also the suggestion could use a bit more reasoning

copper coyote
#

Sorry, I don't know English, that's how the translator translated it

hollow shell
#

Ah, understandable

#

(You should still edit your suggestion to fix the name error, @copper coyote
so that people aren't confused)

copper coyote
#

edited, I hope everything translated correctly?

hollow shell
#

Yeah that's better
Another correction though: It should be "the angler", instead of "a angler"

#

Thank you

#

(There are a few other things I think would improve the suggestion...
but the language barrier would likely make communicating that somewhat difficult
So, you can just leave it as is)

copper coyote
#

right, thank you

Fargo's mutant isn't calamity, it's a different mod, and not everyone wants to use fargo's mutant in their playthrough

split grove
#

does it work on power cells though

loud cloak
#

^ also that yea

sleek turret
#

Fair point

exotic stag
#

gotta agree though. good qol

sleek turret
#

Indeed.

loud cloak
#

true

grim tusk
#

Also strange that it mentions only flamethrowers and not eldritch tomes and p90

distant gyro
#

doesn't luxor ranger cause an iframe mess anyway

#

at some point it decreased photo's primary dps by just about 50%

#

yeah, not increase, decrease

thick river
#

Luxor definitely needs the nerf it’s getting

#

Or at least heavy reworks

fossil finch
eternal escarp
sand umbra
#

better question is when the hell Elf Melter was made good enough to warrant usin' it ever

uncut quiver
#

i don't know if the Holy Ray SFX line in the changelogs addresses the chargeup or the actual ray itself (because I know it already has some sounds for its Holy Ray when it fires), but it'd be nice to have both a good audio and good visual indicator

fossil finch
#

Vanilla flamethrowers (real)

tardy smelt
#

50% of them being shit HDfailure

#

cuz there's only two CompleteFailure

ashen warren
#

@loud cloak I really like this idea. Reducing the use time would be awesome.

frozen hornet
#

Both of them sucked last I used ech

ashen warren
#

one of them is absolute garbage and the other is garbage

deft yew
tardy smelt
#

and worms if you can use it properly

#

but it's a bit harder to use than most other weapons

earnest raptor
#

worms
calamity bosses resist pierce, no?

#

so it's not good

grim tusk
#

why would you ever use elf melter over terra flameburster

earnest raptor
#

christmas eve

fossil finch
exotic stag
#

so uh

#

any ideas how i can word the optional proficiency sugg or no since im still lost

uncut quiver
#

what is it exactly? is it the one where you do sort of side quests to get proficiency?

uncut quiver
#

you could have a station that lets you create a custom target practice arena (like break the targets), and it gives you proficiency when you complete one (ofc the proficiency gain would scale with stuff such as course length but it’s a neat idea, you could also force players to use a “training weapon” during the target practice to level the playing field and prevent piercing weapons from dominating)

#

just an off the wall idea I had related to your idea of the station

exotic stag
#

actually that sounds better then what i had originally

#

like a draedon station that props up holographic targets and you can choose which classes proficiency you want and its based off of accuracy

#

or if you were lazy then an optional way that gives less exp but is automatic

uncut quiver
#

yea that, it’d also be cool to make custom target arenas if that was added too

#

Having accuracy be a factor is something I forgot, that would be good

exotic stag
#

yeah

deft yew
#

does that fall under serious new content because it sounds like a coding headache

exotic stag
#

its just options y'know.

#

few little examples on like how it may look but its not exact

#

and a few ideas on how the function could work

deft yew
#

imagine if it teleported you to like a simulation of each major biome lab

uncut quiver
#

Ik trove does something like that but tbf they have a lot more to work with (such as instances and portals)

#

Where you place physical objects that, upon flipping the switch, will become breakable targets or capturable flags, etc.

uncut quiver
exotic stag
#

yeah like a spawner of sorts

uncut quiver
#

Yea

exotic stag
#

the reason why i thought of hologram targets is entirely because of astral chain

#

the aim tests

uncut quiver
#

That works well, only problem is that aim tests like those are a lot better in 3D

exotic stag
#

yeah

uncut quiver
#

Still would work though

exotic stag
#

yeah like moving targets would still work better.

#

still gotta figure out how to word it though

#

Add other ways to obtain proficiency stats

Proficiency is an overlooked function that just gets thrown by just saying "oh i got a proficiency level. probably not gonna help in the long run" So what i thought of was more ways to earn these specific stats that are optional for the player but still go out of their way to feel like proficiency is overlooked. by either adding one station or multiple stations that train stats. This'd probably make proficiency feel more "oh hey im here too dont forget me" then just "oh i got a level. probably gonna forget about it later"

Hows this?

uncut quiver
#

Yea that works, could specify how it trains stats but as rover said, taking off-the-wall suggestions out of the suggestion will make it succeed more likely

exotic stag
#

yeah

#

i just thought of "why not just make it more included in the game other then just a secondary mechanic"

uncut quiver
#

So just having that as a general suggestion, maybe including “training stats by doing extra activities” or something involving the word “activity”

#

Other than that seems good as general suggestion wording goes

deft yew
#

Fab said it’s supposed to not be important

#

in that changelog

uncut quiver
#

True

exotic stag
#

yeah i was thinking of this

#

like the "inclusion" just feels like its not forgotten right after you obtain it

uncut quiver
#

Yea some form of minor side activity would be good

exotic stag
#

thats why i said multiple or one station

uncut quiver
#

yea

exotic stag
#

actually i kinda got an idea in my head thats defo SIS but its a good thought anyway

#

You'd find the stations in these huts with like an actuated statue of the class in question. once you right click on the station it gives you a training weapon and tells you in the chat what to do.

#

(also little note for summoner thats also FCS: whips would probably be the summoner 1.4 prof station.)

uncut quiver
#

Yea that’s a good thought

exotic stag
#

good to have some SIS thoughts in the back that dont conflict with the actual sugg

#

anyway ima post the initial sugg i had anyway

uncut quiver
#

Alright good luck

exotic stag
#

yeah rover'll probably tell me later what i could improve later

uncut quiver
#

yeah he’ll do that

prime stirrup
#

personally, having to grind for proficiency would make me not want to get it

#

at least when you grind for a fun weapon or an accessory there's a tangible bonus, going for a couple damage points isn't worth the effort

hollow shell
#

Hrm

#

Kinda weird suggestion

#

I don't really know what problem this would solve?

exotic stag
#

tbf all i did was look at this again and read a bit of the entire convo

#

and i got brought back the idea so i was like "ok now to get more suggestions on it and wording"

hollow shell
#

Hmmm

#

Then I suppose the suggestion could just be worded less humble-y

unique reef
#

I would assume they mean a faster way to get proficiency

#

I myself find it very hard to get the last 2-3 levels

#

Even as summoner

hollow shell
#

The whole suggestion enforces the idea that proficiency is worthless and that adding in alternative methods won't change that
There should probably be less emphasis on its worthlessness

unique reef
#

True. It's definitely not worthless

#

I find the KB bonus helpful

#

Same with the slots but that's going away

uncut quiver
#

i think the target practice idea I mentioned would be great but it'd probably be a pain to program

unique reef
#

My only issue with that is how will summoners benefit?

uncut quiver
#

yea that’s the only problem, the training weapon for summoner would have to be a direct summon weapon of sorts (like the brimstone staff thing that functions more like a normal weapon)

#

otherwise it’d be dumb right clicking on every target

unique reef
#

Lmao, yeah

hollow shell
#

I could see a target practice kind of thing being fun
Earn extra proficiency by completing little challenges that're class-specific

uncut quiver
#

It’d be fun making a custom break the targets arena or just doing set ones

unique reef
#

I'm personally against the slots being removed and HotE losing the stats, but ehh. I'd be happy if something better placeholds those

hollow shell
#

Like for summoner, have some targets hang close to you that are invincible, until you break a target that is farther away first
So you need to direct your minions

uncut quiver
#

Ooh yea

unique reef
#

Hmm, maybe

uncut quiver
#

That’s a neat idea

#

Would be a bit annoying to program if it was custom as well (programming which placeable ones are invincible and which ones aren’t, and when they become vulnerable, etc) but I’d be fine with preset target practice arenas too

exotic stag
#

so yeah we all came up with ideas lol

#

so uh just make it worded less "oh its just worthless" and make it more "oh its just forgotten after gotten"

uncut quiver
#

seems about what he advised yea

hollow shell
#

mmm well I think there's a good amount of overlap between the two

grim tusk
#

maybe it could also kinda work for the specific mechanics of the classes as well

#

prob an idea to increase prof more could be adding certain conditions that give more exp

hollow shell
#

I do think I'm invested in the target practice / activity idea now
I don't think an AFK station is the way to go, that's even more boring than the current method

uncut quiver
#

i just think of like trove where you place physical objects and then upon flipping a switch it will turn them into interactable things, leading to stuff like custom CTF maps or obstacle courses

#

Of course terraria has less to work with bc 2d and no instances but any form of making custom courses (kinda like people making golf courses in 1.4) would be cool

#

But if that’s too hard to code then someone earlier suggested set maps based around draedon’s labs

exotic stag
#

i mean you could have like

uncut quiver
#

It’d be like if golf gave a small benefit for doing it, kinda

exotic stag
#

stations that the things are set in

#

like y'know how calamity spawns labs right?

#

why not make something liek the labs where its these shrines which act like the class with like the classes logo as a design in the walls

#

and when you right click it gives you a challenge depending on the shrine

uncut quiver
#

Yea that’d be a way to go about it if they went with set tilesets

#

Or maybe you have to go find that shrine, then do it, then you can mine the statue and make your own version

exotic stag
#

ranger can be like target practice and so on

exotic stag
uncut quiver
exotic stag
#

yeah

uncut quiver
#

Would be fun as long as the shrines arent too hard to find (i mean once you have onyx drill it’s not that hard to explore the entire map)

#

But yea having them in set buildings first and then giving the custom option (with the combine all statues into omniclass statue [it’d prob either just let you choose from any class to train at the same statue or let you use all classes at the same time, and you just get proficiency depending on which classes you use the training weapon of] idea) seems like a great mix

exotic stag
#

yeah

ashen warren
#

You could just use dynamite but, I guess.

exotic stag
#

before moonlord? dont you have like picksaw?

#

also how is fishing tedious

#

pop a crate/fishing/sonar potions and then just relax

frozen hornet
#

If fishing isn't tedious but it still got a mega acc then all the more reason to give a mega acc for builders

exotic stag
#

at post moonlord you have picksaw.

#

an already fast item

#

and then access to money farms for dynamite.

frozen hornet
#

Picksaw is post golem, you're not supposed to use it to make a plant arena

#

That was the example they gave

#

plant arena is one of the most tedious to build

exotic stag
#

bombs.

#

ALSO this.

#

"before moonlord" implies somewhere around LC - moonlord because thats what people assume "before moonlord is"

#

not like plantera to golem

ashen warren
#

Also dynamite exists and is easily accessible

exotic stag
#

so yeah i can see an accessory being there but not really needed too much

frozen hornet
#

Dynamite is imprecise

exotic stag
#

and then just BUILD lol

frozen hornet
#

That's the point of the sugg smh to make it easier

small timber
#

the point of the suggestion is to not need to use dynamite

exotic stag
#

then just use a pickaxe

ashen warren
#

Just build an outline for your plantera arena and bomb the middle

#

Tbh

exotic stag
#

or a mount

small timber
#

onyx can be hard to find, the suggestion is basically to have an accessory that boost both mining speed with pickaxe/drill and building speed

ashen warren
#

We also have the config where we boost mining speed

#

So like

#

Lmao

small timber
#

suggestion are not supposed to be based on changelog

exotic stag
#

thats not changelog

#

thats actually a function in game rn

ashen warren
#

It’s literally already in the game.

exotic stag
#

Lmao

#

its already in the game just you gotta enable it first

frozen hornet
#

The config is removed next update but ye it's still in current version

small timber
#

1.5 also boost base mine speed significantly,though you are refering to that

exotic stag
#

we arent referring to the 1.5 changes

#

as thats FCS.

small timber
#

thought*

ashen warren
#

I think the game already really provides enough tools to mine efficiently, along with the vanilla game providing you with dynamite (plus mining pot not being that hard to craft is a plus)

small timber
#

i dont think many people will want a boost from config because it can feel "cheaty"

ashen warren
#

But the option is there.

exotic stag
#

you have like 6 different options for fast mining anyway

#

and building? thats not really hard to do either

small timber
#

the suggestion is so that you only need 1

exotic stag
#

yes but you can also only use one of those options for fast mining

ashen warren
#

If you’re going to make a suggestion based upon mining speed you should at least mention the config’s existence in some way.

exotic stag
#

also that just seems like a "forced upon player" thing then

#

"only need one" feels like your forcing the player to go with this item for terraforming/building only

small timber
#

just like you said, the dynamite option will always be there, the suggestion accessory is basically an additional option for those want to terraform/building in large scale

exotic stag
#

so is: your pickaxe. mounts. hell the config is there

#

early game is the only thing that i feel that makes mining "tedious"

#

since your stuck with early game pickaxes

ashen warren
#

It’s hard to see eye to eye with this suggestion when there is literally a config that allows faster mine speed, and I feel like dynamite could be used in a lot more situations than people think. You just really have to use it correctly.

exotic stag
#

yeah and with his examples being plantera arena. and before moonlord

#

they dont seem like too big of issues for an accessory that warrants this

#

it feels like you could just.. use the other optiosn

ashen warren
#

If you’re trying to build a box for a plantera arena dig out an outline and then bomb the insides
If you’re making an underground base you can bomb anywhere and then terraform it with blocks later, or use the speed mine config that is there.

exotic stag
#

yeah

#

i mean hell if your even just building normally. it still doesnt take that long unless your building a god damn military base

ashen warren
#

By the time you get hardmode a block only takes like a second to destroy anyway, so it shouldn’t be that tedious to switch to your pickaxe every time you misplace a block.

exotic stag
#

yeah the only thing thats really annoying is like grass lol

#

which btw grass still takes 2 hits no matter what pickaxe you use

#

unless you use like a super fast one or crystyl

ashen warren
#

Even then grass dies pretty quickly.

exotic stag
#

yeah

small timber
#

i still dont see why an upgraded gizmo pack will be a bad idea

frozen hornet
#

The sugg is to have one accessory that condenses every mining speed boosting item into one thing, much like the angler tackle box.

exotic stag
#

yes but even then

#

just use bombs or a pickaxe

ashen warren
#

It’s just not needed. If they added it into the game I wouldn’t mind but the suggestion fails to mention the already efficient ways of clearing out large areas.

exotic stag
#

yeah and what xpc said early was "only one option"

#

basically feeling like the player is forced to use this item for terraforming

frozen hornet
#

I mean is that not what the angler box does

small timber
#

supreme tackle station is basically the same thing and i dont see anything wrong with it

#

it is basically just there, if you want to get it sure, if you don't it will not hinder your game in anyway

exotic stag
#

tackle station is there because fishing is optional and it just makes it more relaxing

#

fishing is MEANT to be easy.

drifting sigil
#

another 50 cal gun LUL

ashen warren
#

I honestly don’t know why tackle box is in the game when you can kill DS 20 times and get all the fishing gear anyways.
Probably has something to do with how fishing is in this game or something.

#

Being optional and tedious for some people but providing good loot.

exotic stag
#

i dont find fishing tedious. its just like

#

relaxing

#

you get to relax while you fish in the waters after facing something

#

also i reread the suggestion. it sounds more like personal preference then anything lol

ashen warren
#

Personally I don’t mind fishing but I could see why angler box would be more needed than supreme architect gizmo pack

exotic stag
#

notice how he talks about himself a lot.

ashen warren
#

Also isn’t gold/platinum armor a fargo thing

small timber
#

may need stronger reasoning, but I think there is no problem with the idea itself

ashen warren
#

The mining boost I mean

exotic stag
#

i think?

ashen warren
#

My main problem with the suggestion isn’t the idea, it’s they really really don’t acknowledge the existence of dynamite and the mining config.

exotic stag
#

no

#

its just set bonus of 4 defense for plat

#

so no mining bonus meaning they just said something bout fargos

#

and gold is 3 defense

ashen warren
#

And if I remember gold armor boost is a fargo thing so like, use a city buster if you have Fargo installed.

exotic stag
#

yeah and if hes talking about other mod things. why not just use like

#

fargos obsidian instabridges. luiafks MANY build tools

ashen warren
#

Veinminer, city buster, city buster, city buster.

exotic stag
#

also why do you even use EVERYTHING for like a plant arena. you have atleast a 190% pickaxe power at the time of plant.

#

(is it 190 or?)

#

also am i the only one who noticed that gold and plat armor on pc are 5 less bars..?

small timber
#

ore armor mining boost is a vanilla thing

ashen warren
#

Is it?

small timber
#

calamiyu*

ashen warren
#

I thought that was being added next update though

solid haven
#

really

#

neat

exotic stag
#

ah thanks altix

#

kek

#

oh and you can buy mining potions from demolitionist btw

solid haven
exotic stag
#

so yes they do lol

#

but like

#

you have already so much stuff on you i think just equipping one accessory is enough lmao

frozen hornet
exotic stag
#

unless your like terraforming your whole world or doing a challenge i dont see the point of trying to even use EVERY single mining accessory

solid haven
#

eat dirt block

#

i think the trash slot is having the playeer eat things

#

other than food

#

thats where everything goes

exotic stag
#

@solid haven can you like not.

solid haven
#

yes

#

i not can not oven

exotic stag
small timber
#

oh ok now i see why you are so opposing the idea, his suggestion is combining all of ore armors, ambrosial, archaic powder,gizmo... all into one accessory

#

i thought it is just gizmo with mining pots

solid haven
#

3300% mining speed

exotic stag
#

so uh ^ whos gonna get rid of the troll above..

#

not xpc but the krit guy..

solid haven
#

delete your house on accident because you tried to kill an enemy in your house

small timber
#

vanilla do limit mining speed to 75% max though if i remember correctly

solid haven
#

i did that too many time

ashen warren
#

I don’t like pinging mods for the sole chance that I might be wrong in the situation.

ashen warren
#

Yes.

exotic stag
solid haven
#

yes i definitely troll

#

troll lot

ashen warren
#

Optimal thing to do in this situation is to ignore him or ping a mod.

solid haven
#

ping mod

exotic stag
#

eh.

#

also i dont see how fishing is tedious. make a dock and grab some summons or something and keep fishing lol

solid haven
#

its rlly boring tho

#

i sat for hours trying to get a crate

zealous oriole
#

fishing is ‘thing that takes a long time’ but thats only tedious to some people

#

and if you just put in a bit of effort to get crate/sonar/fishing potions it’s way nicer

small timber
#

many people see it as a chore because of vanilla, calamity made it much better by providing better accessibility to fishing gears

exotic stag
#

yeah

#

also a chore? your standing still waiting and clicking left click at times

#

like

solid haven
#

no buffs is painful

small timber
#

hard to change prejudice from vanilla

exotic stag
#

thats just relaxing

zealous oriole
solid haven
#

what boss

#

tell pls

#

i need

open goblet
#

desert scourge

solid haven
#

o

small timber
#

aquatic too, for hardmode

#

wait it is leviathan

exotic stag
#

both

solid haven
#

so kill big worms to get more worms to get more fish?

zealous oriole
#

also abt terraforming, you don’t need mining speed for very much at all unless youre mining something bombs cant hit
like, just tunnel left and right at the top of the area you want dug out, toss a bunch of bombs/sticky bombs/dynamite, and repeat

zealous oriole
#

or if youre going through the underground, but then you can just rod of discord

small timber
#

i think the idea itself can stand because many hardmode ores are not bombable and can be annoying, but definitely not by combining all mining speed gear in the game

exotic stag
#

dont all hardmode ores take like 2 hits to break?

zealous oriole
#

ig its good to have lots of mining speed sometimes but i think it is fair to sometimes sacrifice your armor/offensive power to mine

#

cause youre never in a situation where you need to be in a boss fight and be mining unless youre doing something weird

#

also, there’s the mining mounts, which probably sort of replace personally mining if youre clearing out huge areas

exotic stag
#

yep

zealous oriole
#

or mining mount singular if the molecart doesnt count

exotic stag
#

bombs mounts and your own pickaxe

zealous oriole
#

idk the count

solid haven
#

combining all accessories and mining buffs might be funny tho

zealous oriole
#

basically there are already options to mine with your full gear on, or get better speed in exchange for your best tanky build

also ‘might be funny’ is not sufficient for ‘add it as a feature in calamity mod’

solid haven
#

not that

zealous oriole
#

it doesnt make specifically calamity mod better, it can be a standalone mod or whayever

solid haven
#

not add as a feature

#

i did in vanilla and it was very loud

exotic stag
#

leori i would just ignore krit. they seem to act like a troll lol

solid haven
#

for my friends

solid haven
#

i troll lot

#

Definitely

zealous oriole
#

the sweet silence of blocked messages.
anyway, i don’t really see the point of combining every single mining accessory into one versus adding one new mining potion or whatever that can be an improvement in buffs, since i don’t think it’s important to make it instant/effortless to swap between full gear and extreme mining gear ¯_(ツ)_/¯

solid haven
#

the mining potions seems like a good idea

#

i was messing around with a potion mod

exotic stag
solid haven
#

and they added hardmode potions which were just prehardmore but stronger and with more effects

#

it was actully really neeat

near seal
exotic stag
#

(start of hardmode you can break the 3 spawned ores in like 3 swings..)

near seal
#

just saying, that building arenas tends to be a bit more annoying that fishing with all the enemies spawning around you

earnest raptor
#

isn't supreme bait post-levi or something?

exotic stag
#

i think post AS cause levi drops hotline and buckets and a sponge

exotic stag
near seal
near seal
# small timber i thought it is just gizmo with mining pots

i mean, it doesn't have to be everything i listed, the supreme bait thing doesnt use alluring bait, so maybe the ambrosial stuff shouldn't belong with it having it's own upgrade path; saying that it should not stack with it's previous itterations; cuz i think it does rn

#

it could just feel faster cuz the placebo effect idk

near seal
#

And yeah i know abotu dynamite and stuff; that's how i got a prehardmode plantera arena; also cuz making it in hardmode is way more annoying

#

Overall; I don't think it's mining's a big problem, but i still think that it wouldn't be a bad idea to make it more conveinent

near seal
crystal iron
#

I'm late to this but dynamites aren't always the solution. Like, sure you're excavating a large portion of the area but then you have to waste a lot of time making it look nice and all

#

And the 190% mining speed you get isn't all that effecient for more big scale things

#

Namely a big underground arena

uncut quiver
#

isn’t onyx drill godlike at excavating?

#

Like I know it doesn’t do vertical digging but you can just ladder down and do rows

#

Still think the suggestion is good though

hollow shell
#

Onyx is however very very unreliable to obtain

cobalt pewter
#

Only one each world

#

And you find it like Waldo

uncut quiver
#

True

#

curious actually: do shrines have any set spawn rules beside their biome or is it just

#

plop on the map somewhere

hollow shell
#

Pretty sure it is just that

uncut quiver
#

damn that’s rough for onyx then

cobalt pewter
#

For the most part, I don't think there are any detailed spawning reqs

uncut quiver
#

I do think that omni mining accessory would be great though

I forgot which mod had the Tool Rod

Luiafk probably

exotic stag
#

luiafk yeah

slow spruce
#

Having a dedicated mining acc would be so awesome. i was just having an issue with that in my current playthrough and was thinking about installing another mod to make arena's for me lol

tardy smelt
#

Theres already a few

#

Archaic powder line exists iirc

#

And Architect Gizmo Pack too iirc

distant gyro
#

ampoule is technically the ultimate mining acc but like

#

no not really

#

(mining is more of a side benefit of ampoule)

deft yew
#

Possibly ampoule could get a separate upgrade made with the gizmo pack and full miner armor

#

Night vis helmet too perhaps

slow spruce
deft yew
#

(Or, you know, ancient fossil line could lose its non-mining benefits)

slow spruce
deft yew
#

heck archaic powder could be removed from ampoule

slow spruce
#

Yeah. maybe move archaic and radiant ooze onto a mining item and focus ampule into just underground jungle?

deft yew
#

ehh

#

i was thinking more "ampoule keeps everything except powder"

slow spruce
#

Oh? why not remove radiant?

deft yew
#

bc it's light and regen

#

ampoule is really a tank acc and so is radiant ooze once it gets its regen buff

slow spruce
#

I though ooze just gave light. didn't realize it gave regen too

#

What would a dedicated mining acc have in your opinion @hollow shell ?

hollow shell
#

Uh I mean Archaic Powder is our dedicated mining speed acc

#

Ambrosial Ampoule could very well become the dedicated mining acc, or upgrade into one

#

because spoilers

yeah no

I'ts not old content I thought it could kinda be like an easter egg

hollow shell
#

It's, hm
Don't know to what extent this violates that Don't

#

Probably does, though
cuz
It's definitely just old mod content nostalgia motivation

#

No reasoning at all beyond that

#

yea i agree

cobalt pewter
#

It's definitely a don't

#

And even if it doesn't explicitly violate a don't

#

The lack of reasoning is enough for a ❗ either way

(I didn't expect ball_buster to leave instantly and not see my reply)

@pseudo briar You could do a bit more to connect the concept of parrying to resolving the problem you laid out in the 2nd paragraph

#

(right now most of your suggestion is explaining the concept of parrying without explaining why it should be in Calamity)

#

((I can tell you right now that reworking the entirety of melee to fit this new mechanic is very likely not going to happen
It'd be more realistic and productive to do something like, suggest more Brand-like weapons that can parry, rather than trying to give it to the whole class))

pseudo briar
#

so can it be something like a counter scarf

#

accessory

#

ok here's an edit not a final draft

deft yew
#

maybe change "true melee is almost inevitable" to "for true melee it is almost inevitable"

pseudo briar
#

Let me take it down and reword and hopefully make it better

#

Need to think of benefits of it being in calamity

#

back to ze drawing board

ashen warren
#

i want a fighting spirt

#

in calamity

#

then grows stronger as you progress

frozen hornet
#

:what

ashen warren
#

stand

#

it uses what class you are

#

and like

#

yeah

frozen hornet
#

Too specific for a suggestion so you can't suggest it

#

be a patron or smth

small timber
#

anything that upgrade with progression is a dont i think

dense bear
#

it wouldnt be progression-based

small timber
#

@dense bear sry referring to -aDAM above

dense bear
#

oh lol

#

i have some ideas for ways the upgrade i suggested could improve, but i didnt include them because that would limit the potential for creativity
i will say them only if requested

eternal escarp
#

you can give examples of how this can be done iirc

#

just not mention "my suggestion is for this exact idea and nothing else"

dense bear
#

hmm

#

alright

#

there

exotic stag
#

yeah like what i semi-did with my prof suggestion by giving like "multiple stations or a singular station" and with the ideas above in SD (sugg discussion)

#

but yeah giving it the "it COULD be like this but its up to your own ideas" is a good thought

wooden wedge
sand umbra
#

you must now become a dev, or become on really good terms with a dev, to make your specific item idea(s) real

frozen hornet
ocean shale
wooden wedge
#

yea

#

it's been that way for a long time

ocean shale
exotic stag
#

cant this just be abused for instant respawn

wooden wedge
#

i feel like this breaks a dont of some kind

hollow shell
#

?

#

Oh

#

Right

wooden wedge
#

Because teleporters will not work during boss fights in multiplayer in the next update

#

mostly just this

hollow shell
#

The suggestion itself is fine, but that part of it ^ is indeed disallowed
@burnt beacon

#

You can change your reasoning to explain more on why being given more time to get your bearings upon jumping back into the fray would be good

fossil finch
#

werent wormholes also disabled anyways

deft yew
#

just searched recall potion and that change does not mention wormholes

burnt beacon
#

okay, i realise its not ideal im making a suggest about a changelog, but i dont think i need to explain why teleporting infront of plagebringer's face is a bad thing. but in many fights, there are many things onscreen with different trajectories that your teammate couldn't really say whether its safe to teleport or not. cause as it stands, the vast majority of the time you get hit in the first second after wormholeing

deft yew
#

two things

keen zealot
#

nothing wrong with just walking your way over

exotic stag
#

walk your way over or make a seperate spawn

deft yew
#

that changelog doesn't even have wormhole potion in it

hollow shell
#

depending on the boss

deft yew
#

and wormhole gives no i-frames in the first place iirc

keen zealot
#

jungle and dungeon bosses are the only really bad ones

exotic stag
#

make a seperate spawn then

burnt beacon
keen zealot
#

either way you should be making a second spawn if you anticipate this to be an issue

exotic stag
#

yeah

#

seperate spawns are easily the safest way to avoid walking/wormhole issue

keen zealot
#

also once purified jam is renewable you could eat one of those before teleporting

exotic stag
#

what and astral is like rng somewhat so you'll probably get a far or close spawn so i dont think that matters

#

@hollow shell hey quick question. whats the rule on RNG things

hollow shell
# burnt beacon okay, i realise its not ideal im making a suggest about a changelog, but i dont ...

You should still remove the bit about "next update" from your suggestion anyway, cuz that is actually listed in the Don'ts as something you shouldn't do
You should only make suggestions based on what's in the public version, because with future updates you do not have experience with how it will function

(I will still recommend you emphasize the dangers of jumping into the fray at least a bit more anyway, just to flesh out the reasoning (considering all the stuff about teleporters would be removed) and make it abundantly clear the dangers of wormholing, to convince people to star it)

deft yew
#

agreed, this is fine conceptually

burnt beacon
#

would it be better to sugg after the update comes out?

hollow shell
#

Sure

#

That is also an option.

burnt beacon
#

just checked, they dont actually give any iframes in the first place lol thats even worse

exotic stag
#

so hey whats the rule on like astral RNG and stuff

hollow shell
#

Uh if it pertains to Astral spawning yeah you could make a suggestion about it

exotic stag
#

no i just wanted to know if there was like a rule to RNG

#

cause y'know

hollow shell
#

?

exotic stag
#

astral is mostly rng spawning so you can get it close or not close

deft yew
#

that might fall under #bugs-read-pins since the monolith chooses not to exist sometimes

hollow shell
#

Are you trying to pose another argument against the suggestion, swagcat?

exotic stag
#

no im just noticing what they said

#

since they mentioned astral there.

burnt beacon
#

yeah, astral infection bosses, astrum aureus and deus

#

annoying to walk to

hollow shell
#

I don't know how I'm supposed to interpret "whats the rule on RNG things"

burnt beacon
#

astral can spawn further than dungeon

exotic stag
#

since astral spawns randomly.

hollow shell

we have brimstone elemental transformation, sand elemental transformation and cloud elemental transformation, we need now leviathans waifu transformation

w h a t

burnt beacon
#

isnt the siren the only one you can turn into anyway

deft yew

actually anahita is the only one you can turn into
