İ would be cool with calamity breaking worldgen again and making the world wider to add something to the main ocean

#

Because the main ocean needs some love 😦

exotic stag
#

just give the main ocean a shrine

#

and defeating levana unlocks that shrine

safe oasis
#

lame

spare prawn
#

Probably the most boring biome after the forest/purity biome. Which is fine with it being boring because thats just the generic starting biome

safe oasis
#

if giving it a shrine would solve its problem, then the easy source of water chests should be plenty

#

they're awesome early game

spare prawn
#

Hmmm

#

What if

#

.Ocean biome chest wth an all class item

#

İnstead of a shrine

#

Similar to the astral chest

exotic stag
#

well

#

a shrine biome chest

spare prawn
#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

gray nebula
#

squixed

dusty stirrup
spare prawn
#

is gods paranoia actually any good?

rose latch
#

knives dont have an auric tier either

#

and there are way more of those than spiky balls

trail fiber
#

it remind me to the pearl wood armor and weapons set, its usseles, only exist because all the types off wood have one

exotic stag
#

uh no

#

because its wood

#

you should be able to craft stuff WITH wood

#

(Thats just like saying "give spooky wood a sword bow and hammer")

ashen warren
#

what if holy ray magic weapon

exotic stag
#

what if: no

ashen warren
#

why

ruby plover
exotic stag
#

^

#

because that already exists

ashen warren
#

dam..

orchid turtle
#

I thought I’d put it here instead of a normal suggestion because of how small it is, but the pulse pistol can’t be used with the mana overloader because it has no mana cost. So I say it should cost a small amount of mana to cast.

ashen warren
#

what about a peace of dogs armour that can shoot lazers and ram tings

crude geode
orchid turtle
#

Bro I used that to beat mech bosses

fossil finch
#

you issue

#

iirc

exotic stag
#

yes

orchid turtle
#

It’s really good, but the mana overloader means that it gives no healing even though I have almost no mana after using other weapons.

#

It shreds wall of flesh and tears through skeleton prime limbs

#

It’s a great magic weapon, I just feel that the mana overloader in general should react to magic attacks.

ruby plover
#

if the accessory only doesn't activate it's effect for one specific weapon tho

orchid turtle
#

It might in the future though

#

I’m saying that a magic weapon that costs no mana can’t activate the effect

#

Even if you have low mana

crude geode
#

I mean that’s kinda the point ngl

#

So you don’t just empty your mana and spam spectre healing for the low low cost of a accessory slot

orchid turtle
#

Yeah but the healings value is already questionable. You have to be close to a boss which is already the opposite of where a mage wants to be. It seems like a weird exception on an already questionably useful accessory.

ruby plover
#

"you have to be close to a boss", true but it's the only lifesteal for mage you have at that stage, and in a way risking damage is being rewarded by healing damage

orchid turtle
#

If nothing else the description of the item should reflect that mana needs to be spent. I tested for 30 minutes to see why the healing hadn’t started working.

ruby plover
#

why would it need a clarification when it only affects 1 weapon

ashen warren
#

*mana polarizer

orchid turtle
#

Do no other magic weapons have no mana cost?

ruby plover
#

not that i know of...?

crude geode
#

It’s extremely rare

#

because it’s kinda the fuckin point of mage

#

Otherwise you’re just Ranger with weirder projectiles

ruby plover
#

and by the point that you might have another mage weap that doesnt use mana (if another exists), mana polariser would be irrelevant

ashen warren
#

otherwise youd play melee

orchid turtle
#

Just seemed like a weird exception that confused the hell out of me

ashen warren
#

i mean it doesn't sound that hard to figure out why it wasnt working

sleek wadi
#

It could use a mana cost of 1 or something

ruby plover
#

yeah, i feel like the better way of fixing this issue is making pulse pistol cost mana

sleek wadi
#

Practically free, just consumes mana for the purposes of accessory effects

orchid turtle
#

That’s what I said to begin with

ruby plover
#

oh okay

orchid turtle
#

It’s the only weapon like that. It’s cool to have a side weapon to use while mana is charging, but if that’s your main weapon against a boss it can screw you.

#

It took me like 5 wall of flesh attempts to realize what was going on.

#

Again, small issue, but I feel like it could be easily changed by the gun costing 2 mana to shoot.

#

Also whoever said it was outclassed by the time you get mana polarizer, you need to use it more often. It tears through the wall of flesh while killing the hungry, and has utility for mech bosses because of the damage boost to inorganics.

crude geode
#

I would but my ears bleed whenever I use it

#

Also other weapons like black anurian exist

real steppe
#

Ah, the irony that the suggestion that recommends to reduce the amount of stars needed for it to pass isn't making it out (yet)

#

Why was it raised to 270 in the first place?

crude geode
#

to counteract the star flood that was expected to happen with Draedon update

real steppe
#

oh

#

fair enough

crude geode
#

Little did we know it would actually be a drought, not a flood

fossil finch
#

technically the flood was of suggestions

#

reason there is not as many stars is because suggs get buried faster

real steppe
#

Even then, I already thought that 200 is enough

From my experience, only suggestions that are unanimously or near-unanimously accepted get sent to the dev server anyway

#

But I hsve no data to back it up, pure anecdote lol, so don't take me seriously at all

hollow shell
#

In the weeks leading up to 1.5's release, around half of all suggestions were reaching the 200 star requirement

#

when ideally it'd be around 20% of all suggs

#

And we expected a lot more server activity and therefore a lot more people starring suggestions once 1.5 released

#

So we raised it a good deal pre-emptively. 270 would've placed us at the 20% delivery rate that we desired, if the trends from the weeks prior had continued

#

But

#

yeah basically the opposite thing happened

#

And right now we're having active discussions about suggestions and the suggestion bot in the dev server, so don't worry, change will be coming soon

crude geode
#

Oh cool maybe sugg bot won’t crash whenever it has to transcribe a sugg into voting

obsidian cove
#

@rain dawn pretty sure that’s a don’t

rain dawn
#

Dang

trail fiber
#

the yharim's army sounds great, but probably its a lot of work

rain dawn
#

guess just a new event for post-moonlord

violet dagger
obsidian cove
#

Yeah another event is under to high effort

hollow shell
#

Yharim's Army is already planned
for the relatively distant future

trail fiber
#

Ö

hollow shell
#

And yeah no suggesting new events, cuz that's big effort

trail fiber
hollow shell
#

(no that would be Yharon's Army HDfailure )

trail fiber
cobalt pewter
#

@vestal ibex unfortunately more spiky balls might not happen

#

trust me, I tried pushing exo balls for as hard as I could

small timber
#

Since no one mentioned it... Bot seem to had died again

orchid turtle
#

Wait, a bot puts suggestions into the voting area?

#

Well now that I look it’s obvious

fossil finch
#

damn i wonder

exotic stag
#

(they used to be underground desert exclusive. but now not)

fossil finch
exotic stag
#

(so reverting update change..)

trail fiber
#

cnidrion isn't that bad

fossil finch
#

They're aren't even that annoying or common tbh

orchid turtle
#

Let me just say that it took me 30 minutes of attempts to cross the world so I could do my friend playing the sulphurous sea for the first time.

fossil finch
#

I haven't had much issues with them

orchid turtle
#

If a desert is big one will spawn

trail fiber
#

probably only bad luck

exotic stag
#

i havent had any issues. i just make a climbable wall and jump over

fossil finch
#

That's not really a good measure because it's just one personal experience so like,

orchid turtle
#

And with no cloud or blizzard in a bottle their attacks are unavoidable unless your out of range.

exotic stag
#

they are avoidable wym

violet dagger
#

maybe decrease spawn chances until first boss dies

#

they can be very annoying exploring the underground desert imo

orchid turtle
#

They become a nothing enemy with any gear at all, but exploring a world at the start is so annoying if they get in your way.

violet dagger
#

they don't even drop anything good anymore

exotic stag
#

they really arent that bad though

violet dagger
#

imo they should drop more stuff after ds

fossil finch
#

They have plans for them regarding their usefulness

orchid turtle
#

Without a double jump their water blasts are unavoidable.

exotic stag
#

no they sure are

trail fiber
orchid turtle
#

With no gear?

exotic stag
#

yep

orchid turtle
#

How do you do that when they spawn in front of you on the surface

exotic stag
#

all you need is like an early game aglet which is really easy

#

early game aglet and some blocks

orchid turtle
#

Some people don’t like trashing their world with dirt structures to cross a desert

deft yew
#

why not just

orchid turtle
#

Not only that but they phase through blocks

deft yew
#

get to the root of the problem

#

slap amidias's spark on stormlions or smth

#

remove cnidrion

#

freaking irritating and useless enemy

trail fiber
deft yew
#

cragmaw mire and sea floaty are both getting un-memed next patch

orchid turtle
#

If they dropped victory shards I would have no issue

exotic stag
exotic stag
orchid turtle
#

But they are annoying to fight at the start, can kill you quickly, and drop nothing useful

exotic stag
#

boom bada BOOM

small timber
#

With 100 hp and 0 gear cnidrion spawning in front of your face is irritating

orchid turtle
#

Most underwhelming accessory in the game

trail fiber
fossil finch
small timber
#

You basically just cross the desert hoping it just dont spawn

orchid turtle
#

Cool that antlion guard that was already half dead will die after they hit me.

fossil finch
#

Why are you crossing the desert with 0 gear doe

orchid turtle
#

Yo get sulphurous sea fishing loot

exotic stag
#

okay but sliec

#

slice.

#

im hating to say this but

#

you have a genuine

#

skill issue with them.

small timber
#

And in death mode if your otherside is corruption you basically just dig underground

kindred relic
#

simply go to the nearby cave system when starting

exotic stag
#

there.

kindred relic
#

if you dont have one then get a better seed taxevasion

exotic stag
#

just get 5 bars a lead. some wood. and jump over the darn cnidirions

fossil finch
#

You shouldn't be doing that either with zero gear either

orchid turtle
#

I don’t get why putting them underground would be an issue.

#

Why were they moved?

fossil finch
#

You can sure... and that's why the bridging or tunneling options exist

small timber
#

Putting them underground will be an issue because cnidrion has block phasing

trail fiber
small timber
#

I will argue no spawn/lower spawn rate before DS will make more sense

orchid turtle
#

I think that having 2 spawn while I walk across a desert is to common

exotic stag
#

well then

#

what world are you on

small timber
#

Since if you can deal with ds you defintlitely can deal with cnidrion (so we can finally buff cnidrion)

exotic stag
#

an XL one?

orchid turtle
#

Large

exotic stag
#

because i hardly encounter 5 before im done with brain

orchid turtle
#

I’ve encountered at least ten and beaten no bosses on that world yet

exotic stag
#

then your being VERY slow on your world

orchid turtle
#

Other mini boss enemies I haven’t encountered nearly as often

#

Cnidrions are much more common then other mini bosses

#

For seemingly no reason

dense ferry
#

I just want to say that I read your sugg as "Lower Children spawn chance"

exotic stag
#

LO

small timber
#

Cnidrion spawnrate is just extremely random, sometimes it spawn as soon as you step into desert and sometimes you dont see him until hardmode

orchid turtle
#

Then an elite enemy or something. I encounter more Cnidrions then I encounter perforator cysts.

#

They are so common

exotic stag
#

they are just called "rare enemies"

trail fiber
orchid turtle
#

Maybe

#

I guess so since everyone disagrees with me

small timber
#

I still think you can keep the part about lowering spawnrate (ideally before DS only so Cnidrion dont go extinct), but underground desert part probably dont work

orchid turtle
#

Was it mentioned why they don’t drop victory shards anymore?

trail fiber
#

but i think, why cnidrion still exist if they don't drop anything really usefull now?

small timber
#

There are reason why mantis shrimp dont spawn on pre-HM, it is not necessary hard to deal with

exotic stag
#

they drop amidias spark

orchid turtle
#

Because I wouldn’t mind killing all the ones that get in my way if a sub par accessory wasn’t the only reward

#

Again sub par

exotic stag
orchid turtle
#

It’s not

exotic stag
#

and its very god vs DS

orchid turtle
#

It does more damage in hard mode

trail fiber
orchid turtle
#

Worm enemies are shredded by anything

#

Exactly

small timber
#

They want victory shard/victide to be behind bosses only basically

orchid turtle
#

It’s not worth farming Cnidrions

#

That’s the issue

small timber
#

Ya you slap it on if you dont have good acces, you take it off when you have better

orchid turtle
#

I’d rather not take the time to kill them

small timber
#

The only problem I see is just when you have 100 hp wooden bow and a cnidrion stand in front of you, any other point it really is not a problem

trail fiber
#

for me it's nothing, normally i encounter him at HM

orchid turtle
#

Maybe if spark was part of the recipe of a batter accessory

exotic stag
#

(literally its good at killing DS which gets you victide. there. you happy?)

orchid turtle
#

Because the effect does not warrant an accessory slot on its own

exotic stag
#

it does vs DS which unlocks you victide which unlocks you like

orchid turtle
#

Again so are many other things

exotic stag
#

the rest of PHM

orchid turtle
#

I’d rather use a warding shackle then spark

#

That’s how bad it is

exotic stag
#

yeah because warding shackles give you like 5 defense

kindred relic
#

(even more in .004 tomfoolery )

exotic stag
#

(what? in phm?)

small timber
#

What if: Lower all rare enemy spwanrate before 200hp

fossil finch
exotic stag
#

because then you wont get pinky or y'know

orchid turtle
#

This has changed more to make Cnidrions better at this point

exotic stag
#

other rare useful enemies

small timber
#

Oh ya I forgot piggy is rare

orchid turtle
#

Like seriously let spark be rolled into a late game accessory, and I wouldn’t mind them at all

#

Ike maybe the absorber

small timber
exotic stag
#

iirc spark used to be part of absorber but was removed

orchid turtle
#

Honestly the amalgam fits it better

small timber
#

Amalgam is pure expert drop now

orchid turtle
#

Yeah but it would fit since it also has shade rain

exotic stag
#

(honestly just combine all the "on hit summons/drops stuff around you" accessories into one)

fossil finch
#

That'd be a bad idea

#

They're trying to strafe from chunky accs anyway

exotic stag
#

(also can i bring up the sugg about "making levi + ana spawn faster")

orchid turtle
#

Honestly just put it in something

exotic stag
fossil finch
#

Throwing spark into a random acc doesn't solve anything

orchid turtle
#

I’d rather a more useful combination accessory sit unused in my storage system then spark

fossil finch
#

:youarethefailure:

orchid turtle
#

Also my suggestion kinda changed more into a rag on how useless the Cnidrion is as an enemy.

trail fiber
#

so i spawn anahita accidentaly in the abyss xd

exotic stag
#

AmidiasEvasion yeah thats not rare

#

thats just a bug

orchid turtle
small timber
#

Just dont care about his drop first since your suggestion is on cnidrion spawn being annoying early game

fossil finch
#

That's not how usefulness works

exotic stag
#

usefulness only works on how useful the accessory is currently. and if it can be useful later

#

"does the item have a good crafting item later? yes? then its probably useful later so keep it."

"Does the item have use right now? yes? Keep it."

orchid turtle
#

I use spark until I have any accessory slot that isn’t actually useless is filled

fossil finch
#

A random acc requiring another random acc isn't making it useful

#

It's making it one in a chungus list of tasks to get something you want

exotic stag
#

remember: spark vs KS and DS are useful.

orchid turtle
#

If it had use later I’d actually kill cnidrions and wouldn’t be so bitter that they keep spawning

trail fiber
orchid turtle
#

I’d be happy to kill them

exotic stag
trail fiber
#

oh, ok

orchid turtle
#

I guess it’s fine when you have no other accessory to go in a slot

exotic stag
#

or: when your fighting DS/KS. exploring. or need to take out a crowd below

orchid turtle
#

Again, so many things shred those bosses

fossil finch
#

This is just going in circles now

#

So like

#

I think it's better to stop

orchid turtle
#

I’ll delete the suggestion, since the point has changed so much, but tldr make the cnidrion have actual purpose.

unique vector
#

wus happening

#

oh cnidrioun suggs

#

we are like

trail fiber
#

well, if isn't useful just don't kill cnidrion

unique vector
#

thinking of ways to make him better

exotic stag
#

(other tldr: cnidirion has a use. you just gotta find it)

unique vector
#

so yea A_ThumbsupTao

#

its not current priority tho

fossil finch
unique vector
#

feel free to suggest changes to him tho maybe we'll uh take inspriation from sugs

orchid turtle
fossil finch
#

(This is what we have been told by other devs how do you dare contradict the clear words of plans existing to "we're thinking of plans"
Crying

exotic stag
#

Also the other piercing weapons? Rogue has like a few. summoner im not even sure other then cringelion. melee?? i dont think theres any

unique vector
#

no imean

#

suggest it if uwant

#

however yea avoid cyclical discussions

orchid turtle
#

You spawn with bombs

#

You literally spawn with bombs

exotic stag
#

(you'd have to: make it to the corruption. actually HAVE corruption. and survive falling down the pit with nothing)

orchid turtle
#

You also spawn with rope

trail fiber
#

why still arguing? (i'm not sure if i write right that word)

orchid turtle
#

I will die on this hill, but I will stop arguing, mostly because I’m going to eat food now

cobalt pewter
#

nohitting dog (cringe)

small timber
#

normally I would say yes but I get so used to bashing his head now I will say no

#

if something it should be malice, though it will make malice ultra bullshit due to random speedup

cobalt pewter
#

instakill isn't unique and fun

small timber
#

I think dog head should deal absurd damage, just not instakill

#

in dmode at least

cobalt pewter
#

besides, the head just depleting defense on hit serves more than enough to replicate the effect

small timber
#

because currently dog head hit less than yharon charge

cobalt pewter
#

puts you in a big pinch for follow up attacks while not immediately fucking you over from just a hit

#

kinda like dog chewing off your armor in a sense

#

plus DoG's AI as it is needs to be expanded

#

the boss is less the worm and more lasers and the stupid guardians

small timber
#

malice EoW is more DoG than DoG

solar kayak
jagged spade
#

why readd it several updates later

#

plus that wont change the fact that the fight is just boring in general

solar kayak
#

No, it really isn’t tho. Well now you can make that argument cause it doesn’t matter, but there was a genuine threat in Death Mode.

jagged spade
solar kayak
#

Uh no, he killed you in one hit. That was the threat lol. Me and many other players enjoyed the fight for that reason

#

The thrill of avoiding the head when he's rushing at you

#

Etc

jagged spade
#

you can die easily

solar kayak
#

Nah, I see people commenting that malice mode DOG is a joke etc. "doesn’t even kill you in one hit lololol"

#

I don’t see why removing what the fight was designed around, is a good thing

jagged spade
tacit tide
#

but malice doesnt change stats

solar kayak
#

I’m just making a point cause people mentioned it in DMode malice

#

Which is the ultimate challenge in a sense

trail fiber
solar kayak
#

I’m arguing that it shouldn’t have been removed at all, it was fine as is

#

I loved the fight how it was before

tacit tide
solar kayak
#

And they could’ve improved it by adding different patterns to watch out for, or made him even more fast and aggressive

trail fiber
tacit tide
trail fiber
solar kayak
# jagged spade you can die easily

And no. The main reason people die is from the Insta kill head. It is the great equaliser. Regardless of your DR, Defense, Shadow Dodge, Health, you will always die if you get hit by it. That's what made it scary. It was an imminent threat. Without it, at that stage of the game, you can tank a few hits. It’s no different to Revengeance.

trail fiber
#

well, there's a lot of people that doesn't like it, maybe was the main reason for that change

solar kayak
#

I just want the devs to be confident with their prior decisions, keeping modes challenging, and not shifting the difficulty between things.

solar kayak
#

Play Revengeance

#

Also, the fight is literally designed around the head

#

It’s not an argument

trail fiber
#

your unique argument it's because you enjoy the fight, it's ver subjetive

#

very*

solar kayak
#

The head is the weakness, so you are meant to effectively dance with death and chase the head to deal the most damage, but at the same time you have to be weary of the head itself as it can kill you in one hit; great equaliser.

trail fiber
#

the weakness is also the tail

solar kayak
solar kayak
tacit tide
solar kayak
#

Plus you rarely get to hit the tail lol

tacit tide
solar kayak
tacit tide
solar kayak
solar kayak
trail fiber
tacit tide
solar kayak
trail fiber
#

anyway, there's no way that the devs consider that suggestion, did you read the things that you shouldn't suggest?

solar kayak
# tacit tide it is its much more predictible then the head

Bro you are just saying shit without any substance. The tail isn’t easier to hit DOG's head is usually circling back. You can’t reliably follow the tail aside from certain instances. Especially in phase two when he starts to teleport

solar kayak
#

They can take it or leave it, idrc. I haven’t even updated the mod to the latest actually

#

Cause I’m doing BR

#

Might stay that way if things don’t change soon tho 😵

tacit tide
trail fiber
solar kayak
#

Given these ignorant comments lmao

tacit tide
#

what

solar kayak
#

Did I stutter?

tacit tide
#

what is wrong with you. i just want to say something about your suggestion and youre just being mean

trail fiber
#

he gets cocky xdxdxd

solar kayak
#

What I’m saying is that the head is always going to follow the player, and so the player in encouraged to engage with the head.

solar kayak
trail fiber
#

if it's easier for you go to the head, great, but each person have his way to play so it's ok

solar kayak
#

Yeah I agree

unborn siren
#

one of the suggestion dont's is:

  • Any suggestions involving re-adding removed features or sprites
solar kayak
#

I’m saying that the fight incentivises the player to go for the head

unborn siren

"Too arrogant to hear"

Where?

#

Quote?

#

Scans?

trail fiber
#

yes yes, wathever you say

solar kayak
#

Quite arrogant of you to behave that way

#

😵

trail fiber
#

i'm just going to sleep so..

tacit tide
#

its just funny watching you 2 telling the other arrogant xD in need popcorn

solar kayak
frail mantle

Both of you stop

#

I think

👍

humble rain
#

Idk if anyone saw my suggestion yesterday, but the scar from fortnite would be a cool gun to add for the ranger class. or any gun from fortnite, I'm up for suggestions! 😄

crude geode
humble rain
#

There’s a bloons reference

#

Also many bl2 references

crude geode

solar kayak
#

"Za warudo" JoJo fans are cringe

jagged spade
#

agree

humble rain
#

Fortnite fans are not cringe

solar kayak
#

They’re even worse

#

They’re 9

#

😵

jagged spade
humble rain
#

I think the semiauto shotgun would be cool

#

It would shoot shotgun bullets but fast

#

Any thoughts?

solar kayak
#

I think sugon is a cool weapon

humble rain
#

Deez nuts jokes are cringe

#

Also I’m not 9

#

I’m almost 15 in february

solar kayak
#

😵

crude geode
#

just don't bother tbfh, calamity players tend to have an elitist complex.

crude geode
frail mantle
#

Specific item suggestions in general are a don’t

crude geode
#

also that

solar kayak
#

I feel like weapon switching and weapon combos would be a cool implementation

#

Further benefits and practicalities to using multiple weapons

humble rain
#

So you can double pump someone

solar kayak
#

I mean the game intrinsically does that, but it would be cool if there’s more

humble rain
#

I agree

solar kayak
humble rain
#

Add double pump from fortnite

solar kayak
#

Like in Doom Eternal or Devil May Cry

solar kayak
#

Is that

humble rain
#

Its where you switch weapons like you said

solar kayak
#

Uh ok

humble rain
#

You shoot someone once with pump shotgun then switch to another and shoot again so you son’t have to reload

#

Sorry I’m very knowledgable about fortnite

solar kayak
#

Yeah however you call it, I think it would create an interesting dynamic that encourages smart weapon usage and manually dexterity

humble rain
#

Me too

#

I agree

#

Like switching from the bolt action sniper to a supressed smg when someone gets close to you

solar kayak
humble rain
#

So you can break their builds faster and kill them

solar kayak
#

Terraria currently has things like, using Golden Shower to lower enemy defence, then swapping to something else

#

The summoner class has whips and sentries

#

And minions

#

So you're constantly swapping between those n stuff

humble rain
#

Thats pretty cool

#

Anyways, the fortnite rocket launcher would be cool. It could like break blocks and do a lot of damage

solar kayak
#

I believe there should be a greater benefit to swapping weapons, maybe more elemental interactions n shit

solar kayak
humble rain
#

Idk I think its more interesting than your suggestion

solar kayak
#

I mean to you it is

#

But I don’t think anyone here wants to talk about Fortnite

#

At all

#

Lol

frail mantle
#

i think ranged in general needs weapons that aren't just Gun That Shoot Bullets #4

crude geode
#

same

frail mantle
#

vanilla has enough of those

crude geode
#

or bow that shoots arrows

frail mantle
#

calamity too, to some extent

See he wants the rocket launcher

Like it could make weapons like the sniper rifle viable

not le random fortnite rocket launcher.

Maybe the rpg from FortNite and You could Rocket-Ride

solar kayak
#

Like they should add more guns that are single shot, long reload time, but have interesting synergies with other weapons so players are encouraged to swap guns constantly

#

How about we don’t add anything from Fortnite (mid ass game)

Rocket ride would be so epic

It was my bad fueling the flame, but I’m tryna get passed it

#

(Le cool Fortnite reference)

humble rain
#

I think it would be cool if there was some type of mechanic in the game where you could switch between weapons and like certain weapon types would combo off each other causing effects based on which weapons you used. Especially mage for example bc of the class’ high weapon diversity

#

Original idea btw, trademarked

frail mantle
#

something interesting for mage would be weapons having cooldowns of sort after you use them enough or whatever

solar kayak
#

I think Ranger could benefit from it

frail mantle
#

doesn't need to make you completely unable to use the weapon, but maybe something like reduced damage while it's on cooldown to encourage using a variety of weapons

#

mana makes it feel like mage is meant to be a burst damage class but in practice that's not really what it feels like

solar kayak
#

Actually some Ranger players mix and match their bullets n shit

humble rain
#

Autopause gamers

solar kayak
#

But I think overall, there should be some powerful, slower guns

#

That have great synergy with each other

silver silo
frail mantle

that's only the ones i could think of

#

there are probably a few more

you're both being bad but like. from what i've read, very much you for these last messages

Anyways jackhammers are underrated add more ty

solar kayak
#

Tf is a jackhammer

silver silo
#

Exactly

solar kayak
#

In Terraria

frail mantle
#

what a chainsaw is to a normal saw

cosmic jungle
#

it's like a drill if it was a hammer

#

and only one exists

solar kayak
#

Yeah but I mean functionally?

silver silo
#

Yeah why it’s sad

solar kayak
#

So it's just a drill then

cosmic jungle
#

functionally it's literally just a hammer

solar kayak
#

Oh

silver silo
#

It’s a hammer drill

solar kayak
#

Nvm

frail mantle
#

a hammer but you don't swing it

#

essentially

silver silo
#

A hammer but it goes brrrr

#

It’s kind of weird they just made a chloro one of all things then just said lol no more

frail mantle
#

there's the hydraulic volt crasher but other than that there aren't any jackhammers i can think of either in this mod or vanilla

crude geode
#

I remember someone bringing up give drills/jackhammers charge so they’re not just pickaxes

cosmic jungle
#

to be fair

#

you could remove half of the chloro tools and it wouldn't matter

silver silo
#

Wait so does chloro have one of every type

cosmic jungle
#

I think so yeah

silver silo
#

Chainsaw axe pick axe drill hammer jackhammer

cosmic jungle
#

and a drill varriant

#

yep

silver silo
#

The only “full set”

crude geode
#

still largely irrelevant

cosmic jungle
#

it also has 2 swords and a bow

silver silo
#

Unless we count hamaxes

#

There’s also oddities like the picksaw drax and pick axe axe

frail mantle
#

chloro pickaxe is just pickaxe axe but without the axe part and you need the pickaxe axe to get it in the first place

cosmic jungle
#

it has a 1 block longer range than pickaxe axe

crude geode
silver silo
#

So does all of the chloro tools

#

That’s their “gimmick”

frail mantle
silver silo
#

I don’t think anybody uses chloro tools because they do nothing relevant

crude geode
#

Their gimmick is being irrelevant because you get shroomite/spectre tools one boss later

cosmic jungle
#

why even get those

#

just get a picksaw

silver silo
#

Maybe there should be more in between to use them for?

crude geode
frail mantle
#

shroomite claws is the fastest pickaxe in vanilla i think

cosmic jungle
#

not really?

#

oh yeah shroomite claws exist

silver silo
#

Oh yeah ahroomite claws is another weird ass tool

cosmic jungle
#

spectre tools feel irrelevant af tho

#

because farming spectre bars is ass

umbral cairn
#

Real chads use Cuppertools the whole game

silver silo
#

Shroomite doesntbhave an axe or hammer right since they’re sold

solar kayak
#

Drills are better than pickaxes in vanilla now

umbral cairn
#

Change my mind

solar kayak
#

Less range tho

crude geode
raw veldt
#

considering that the next upgrade is always picksaw

silver silo
#

Maybe matching set tools should have a bonus for wearing the set?

cosmic jungle
#

you can just beat vanilla with a pickaxe axe and be fine tbh

raw veldt
#

so meh

cosmic jungle
#

like

#

you dont really need to mine anything beyond chloro

raw veldt
#

yeah

silver silo
#

Scoria doe

cosmic jungle
#

in vanilla

crude geode
#

We’re mainly talking vanilla

silver silo
#

Ah

crude geode
#

Cuz in calamity everything is a different beast

silver silo
#

Vanilla has no ore past chloro yeah

#

Luminite was made an ore for no real reason

#

Since it’s a drop

cosmic jungle
#

building I guess??

silver silo
#

Who the fuck builds with luminite ore

cosmic jungle
#

some odd people

silver silo
#

Maybe if you wanted to make a giant luminite moon

crude geode
#

I mean technically there is a purpose to mining post plant/pre-golem, and it’s called where the fuck is my jungle temple

jagged spade
cosmic jungle
#

yeah but like

#

is it REALLY worth grinding that much for the shroomite claws

#

when pickaxe axe does the job fine

silver silo
#

Luminite also doesn’t make the ore mining sound when hit, it makes the dirt sound DEVS PLS

#

It feels a little odd that once you get the pick saw everything becomes irrelevant same with the uelibloom pick

#

You can ignore multiple tiers

small timber
#

it don't "ignore multiple tiers", you get pickaxe post mech (pickaxe axe), then plantera have no pickaxe, next tier is golem for picksaw, then next (usually is lunatic cultist) then moon lord

#

because of the luminite/exodium cluster planetoid you usually do have to craft luminite pickaxes

#

just that the end game don't have ores to mine so blossom is used until auric

silver silo
#

You did see the discussion about spectre shroomite and chloro right

#

Those exist

cosmic jungle
#

we were talking about vanilla

crude geode
#

I do think that it’s exacerbated by calamity since even like reaver stuff exists, and everything still just goes down the drain

cosmic jungle
#

in calamity you have no reason to make shroomite, spectre or chloro tools either really

#

you'll get a picksaw anyway so why bother

silver silo
#

Nerf picksaw lo

crude geode
#

If we can argue for using weapons a tier later why can we not use pickaxes a tier later, especially when dynamite is still usable

small timber
#

the problem is post-plant tools mines nothing, and picksaw do mine something, so you can't really "buff them"

#

unless you make only post-plant can mine perennial

silver silo
#

Make them same tier?

small timber
#

cannot, scoria is in the abyss, which is supposed to be post golem

silver silo
#

Hmm

crude geode
#

You could just let shroomite digging claws/spectre pickaxe mine scoria post golem

silver silo
#

True

cosmic jungle
#

the only real thing you could do is some other gimmick

#

like making them mine faster or with more range

small timber
#

but... do you really want to spend mats to craft a pickaxe instead of use the free drop?

cosmic jungle
#

but by more range I do not mean the +1

#

1 is like nothing

silver silo
#

The rare free drop dude

#

It’s a choice of crafting vs fighting

crude geode
#

I mean if the original spectre/shroomite was buffed yeah.

silver silo
crude geode
#

release spectre souls on block break

cosmic jungle
#

make them mine dungeon bricks instantly

silver silo
#

It’s like what can you do with “breaks block” to make it interesting

cosmic jungle
#

(joke)

silver silo
#

Honestly omega

#

let’s be real with dungeon mining to make arenas for void and polter

#

I wouldn’t mind that

cosmic jungle
#

yeah

#

it would be quite awesome actually

small timber
#

if it is for dungeon (post-ml for void and polter), isnt it make more sense to buff luminite pickaxes?

#

instead of post-plant tools

silver silo
#

Actually imagine if the chloro pick axe had a vein miner effect but only on chlorophyte ore

#

People love vein miner so give it to them in a balanced way

cosmic jungle
#

luminite picks have a purpose

#

that is mining the exodium clusters

silver silo
cosmic jungle
#

after being upgraded

crude geode
cosmic jungle
#

that too

crude geode
#

Make shroomite digging claws not kill truffle worms

You do it smugayaya

unique vector
#

welcome to 1.3 dungeon hell

silver silo
#

Journeys end dungeons hage

cosmic jungle
#

now we know why red never made a dungeon boss

crude geode
#

(Personally I think Journey’s end dungeon is pretty cool and adds to the thematics and traps without explicitly adding dungeon exclusive traps.)
Dungeon generation tends to be pretty wacky and unpredictable, unlike jungle temple which always at least has a shitty altar room

silver silo
#

I like the pitfalls and such just not the blocked hallways

#

Also water pits give natural fishing spots

#

The hallways having to be mined is just a chore for a mostly fight themed area

crude geode
#

Blocked hallways need to just not take like actual effort to bust through

silver silo
#

Idk why they don’t crumble in a chain reaction he made it use the “sometimes it breaks” mechanic he gave to desert fossils

lone geyser
small timber
#

it already works no? I used it against destroyer and it was no way as rippy as people claim

#

oh ok the damage portion probably, I did not check for it

lone geyser
#

i tried it and didnt notice any difference in the damage

small timber
#

I will just try it too for double confirm

lone geyser
#

👍 thanks

small timber
#

because I remember destroyer laser dont do anything to me in death malice with transformer

#

ya it definitely do not work, I guess I had more defense than I thought

#

transformer do give electrified immunity but the projectile do same damage

#

(although tbh it might be intentional since 90% of malice destroyer is laser spam)

grim tusk
#

@solar kayak although i agree that DoG needs to be more of a menace, bringing the head instakill is a bad idea as it forces back the reason of why it was removed in the first place: forcing the player to play glass cannon, sometimes being way too punishing. However the idea of making the head more active in the fight is very good, I feel that DoG needs to be overall more aggressive to be more of a menace rather than relying on an instakill to be threatening

exotic stag
#

(just make dog fire lasers out of his mouth. boom solution)

small timber
#

just give dog head hit 1k damage

grim tusk
small timber
#

at the very least you can still do something about it, just not instantenously unconditional one shot

distant gyro
#

780 + 5 seconds of GSI is good enough i think

grim tusk
#

Leave the brutal oneshot to Malice, BR and Infernum

small timber
#

ya in death he is a bit underwhelming, though I will definitely prefer changing his charge pattern rather than more damage

#

malice EoW has more aggressive charge pattern than DoG

grim tusk
#

Malice DS has more aggressive charges than Dmode DoG

exotic stag
#

(why not instead of making his head a giant hurtbox. make his head actually do more)

small timber
#

malice DS has more aggressive charges than 90% of things in the game (on its tier)

exotic stag
#

(like y'know. lasers cause he should be able to use lasers for more then one attack)

small timber
#

I would definitely prefer a more charge-based DoG than laser DoG, laser wall kinda become his hardest attack

#

it slowly losing its boss identity

exotic stag
#

(yeah but making him rather then just charging worm number 5 it'll be more like he actually has more then one different attack)

small timber
#

that is when he can be different, he is not the charging worm number 5, he is THE charging worm

#

he is a post-ML boss and one of the (if not) most iconic boss of the mod

exotic stag
#

(hes iconic cause of his music pretty much. his fight is just charging worm number 5 though)

small timber
#

(ya it currently is, I mean he can be THE charging worm if he gets reworked, he is now laser spammy worm number 500 not even charging worm)

grim tusk
#

His fight is what if destroyer was post-ML

exotic stag
#

yes

grim tusk
#

Still having that destroyer clone identity of old times

#

Yet no one mentions it lol

exotic stag
#

(i mean he uses lasers like what? for one attack?)

small timber
#

and his blue/purle gimmick simply don't work in current days when many bosses get much better

#

it only make him "give up" on attacking you for a slow hawaiian travel

small timber
#

ya haven't try infernum yet, they probably expanded on it (since it is suppose to be crazy version of the boss)

#

since it is in beta and I am not aware if it is even available to public

grim tusk
#

I’ll tell something about the bg there

exotic stag
#

i also havent tried infernum cause i already have 60 mods

grim tusk
#

But the boss is def not passive at all

#

Inf DoG is a menace

small timber
#

they should be, passive dog is like one of the massive weakness that still exist for some reason

#

not a single other boss in the game randomly give you 15 second free downtime

grim tusk
exotic stag
#

(does infernum DoG use lasers for more then one attack though)

grim tusk
#

Although not so sure

small timber
#

(I was referring to base calamity since I haven't try infernum) but ya I definitely will welcome a more aggressive dog

grim tusk
#

He was reworked again, but hes epic

small timber
#

even if it will be fucked

exotic stag
grim tusk
#

Anyways back to vanilla Calamity

exotic stag
#

(can we just give DoG something more to do then just "hehe charge worm" though)

small timber
#

I mean we can't just suggest "yo rework DoG to stop being post-ML Destroyer", so probably case close

grim tusk
#

Laser wall can be kept but DoG needs to spice up everything else

exotic stag
#

yes

small timber
#

if I am to make a suggestion:

  1. throw away the two phase gimmick, 2) less laser spam more charges, 3) much more aggressive in general (no run off the map), 4) give him like 5 different charge pattern, example is DS have a burrow attack (so just give DoG like 5 different variants from all angles)
exotic stag
#

i meant improve off of his already decent attacks and use more of his lasers in attacks other then just charging and randomly using walls

small timber
#

if he is to be "more lasery" just give him a circle version of thanos' laser spam

exotic stag
#

i didnt mean that

#

i meant just

small timber
#

the one that follow you and spam literally a wall

exotic stag
#

literally

#

just make him shoot a laser pattern out of his mouth

#

(like y'know how bosses will have the 3 - 2 - 3 pattern with lasers?)

small timber
#

I will be honest that attack seems very random on DoG, same with laser walls, he had been having identity crisis since a long time ago

fossil finch
#

At least i swore it was 3 movement patterns instead of 2

small timber
#

and also 5) why does he only do portal attack ONCE, his entire lore is based behind space manipulation, he should have some sort of attack where he open multiple portals to simulatenously charges quickly

#

like exo twins' charge, but by a gigantic worm and portals

fossil finch
#

Also it can be kept because it's not the problem
It can be used perfectly to signify him doing a different attack

exotic stag
#

(just make DoG have the ability to invert gravity HDfailure like palkia in SSBU)

#

(or invert the camera)

#

(being flipping it)

unique vector
#

not everything has to be lore hyperfocused

small timber
#

not necessary "lore hyperfocus", more like lore can help build uniqueness in bosses, which can be reflected in its attack

#

because there are no other opportunity for something like this, it is unique to DoG especially considering his status as an iconic boss

unique vector
#

not if a big and flashy attack is overused

#

but i see your point

#

dont think lore explains why people want him to instakill again though ErisDerp

small timber
#

instead it is post-ML malice destroyer with lasers but less laser and more walls

#

oh sorry we gone off topic in the previous convo

exotic stag
#

okay but how about my idea about makin him flip the camera HDfailure

small timber
#

(just use gravity pots for uno reverse problem solved)

exotic stag
#

(not like that because its camera inversion not gravity)

ashen warren
#

God

#

Hell no

#

What an awful idea lmao

late elk
#

This one surely will get rejected (ceaseless void)

exotic stag
#

your already trying to dodge bullet spam

ashen warren
#

As it should

exotic stag
#

your now just giving it dmode dog priority

ashen warren
#

One shots are unfun

#

Especially when it literally is pulling you into it

#

If you wanna get one shot use Armageddon

small timber
#

I think just again, massive damage is enough

#

there are reason insta kill is removed

exotic stag
#

if you get sucked into it just make it do DoT

ashen warren
#

Why not just

#

Leave it how it is?

#

Getting sucked in is already rather punishing

late elk
#

But it is a Void

#

so

small timber
#

I think the idea is just make it more punishing, because currently if you just use hook you don't really get sucked in, at all

ashen warren
#

That

#

Doesn't solve that issue at all??

#

That just encourages you to hook more to not get one shot lol

#

Put a bit of thought in it

small timber
#

if I am to use unpolite word it will be just "if you are bad enough to get sucked in here take massive damage git gud next time"

ashen warren
#

You already do

#

As you will get hit by the energies

late elk
#

Alright, DoG is unfair on instakill, but it does massive damage

small timber
#

contact and energies share i-frame

ashen warren
exotic stag
#

also your not confined to dungeon

small timber
#

it deal significantly more damage by getting stucked in than trying to get out, it is super hard to get out without nr/rod, usually it is just wait for phase end

#

ok words

exotic stag
#

just make it if your in ceaseless you get inflicted with a DoT

hardy dock
#

There’s a good reason why DoG lost his instakill

late elk
#

How many damage Ceaseless deals when the player gets sucked?

hardy dock
#

And CV’s would be so much worse lmao

small timber
#

348, energies are like 250, in Dmode

ashen warren
small timber
#

for reference about same as signus contact

late elk
#

I've never been sucked into the void, but the energies are the problem at least for me

small timber
#

you will still get punished, but at least not instantaneously die

late elk
#

in the void-

exotic stag
#

you got punished for it. but its recoverable

late elk
#

Hmm, but what if it does deal damage and also gives debuffs to the player?

exotic stag
#

nol

#

just make it do a DoT so its not stupid punish

small timber
#

DoT don't give iframe so it already do what you said

#

just dont make it a 500hp/s dot then it will be fine

exotic stag
#

just make it provis dot.

#

but for ceaseless

#

boom done

small timber
#

the more you get sucked in the more damage it deal?

late elk
#

thinking about it

#

it's a better idea

exotic stag
#

if you just get sucked into ceaseless you take a DoT but its escapable.

#

it just does the same as provi's debuff except less stoopid

late elk
#

What could a void do to the player

#

apart from damage

exotic stag
#

Absorb.

#

Swallow.

#

a lot more

small timber
#

getting tear apart, darkness,blackout, and... damage,probably

exotic stag
#

your already having gravitational pull which could do slow dot because your getting stretched

tear apart one is not a terraria mechanic (except in the form of dot)

what is dot

small timber
#

damage over time (DoT), or debuff, like on-fire,frostburn...

late elk
#

Ah well

unique vector
#

please understand proper and enjoyable game design before you try to make everything in-game lore relevant

#

im not gonna mark it with an exclamation unless someone else comes by and does it but this is like, a bad example of sacrificing design for the sake of realism/lore relevancy

small timber
#

just make it harder in malice only

unique vector
#

good tip: dont do it just bc u want it to make sense, do it if its interesting to the player from a gameplay or visual perspective

~~ lore relevancy has to take a part in something though. you dont want them being a swordsman and then just summoning god out of nowhere~~

unique vector
#

i do not think instaadying to the gores of a boss you just killed is good design or falls in the reign of interesting

unique vector
#

ofc there has to be a balance

#

im just saying, on one end try not to suggest things to be more realistic or lore relevant for the sake of it

small timber
#

insta kill is just bad design, same reason why yharon bordernado no longer have insta kill despite enraging yharon is basically insta kill

#

it is just completely unfun when you make a tiny mistake and die (while not deliberately setting for it like arma)

unique vector
#

instakilling isnt rlly the main issue i have with this sugg

#

its moreso throwing in a mechanic to make CV more “realistic” when it doesnt really need to be IMO

late elk
#

Ah well

#

nevermind

small timber
#

just as long as it is not literally instakill I think the idea of your suggestion still works

#

currently it is a bit too not punishing for literally fucking up on a desperation attack

late elk
#

debuffs work?

small timber
#

ya just as long as not literally die (which give no chance to recover at all)

#

DoT give room to recover after you basically screwed up

late elk
#

DoT just in the desesperation phase or any phase of the fight?

small timber
#

depend on what you want, you are suggesting

#

we are just arguing that insta kill might not be the best idea, we are not trying to discredit your suggestion so just suggest what you want

late elk
#

Well, i'll try to edit it though

#

done

gray nebula
#

average debuff as cooldown indicator fans vs average unique visuals as cooldown indicators enjoyers

small timber
#

I think just slightly more reason, like for a phase where the entire mechanic is to get the player sucked into the void, somehow the energies are much more dangerous than getting stucked in the void itself

#

otherwise I think it gets the idea across

late elk
#

yeah

exotic stag
#

(ok but latias you missed the fact that those buffs DO exist)

#

(and have visibile cooldowns)

#

(i dont know about brimflame cause i dont use it but godslayer does and bloodflare does)
