hi guys

#

anyone doing anything cool rn

#

lorewise ofc

#

nothing much lol. im just looking for a distraction

#

tryna see if anyone had any interesting lore to share

#

i feel like ive talked about most of the obvious stuff thats available with people already

#

ive always found the different gods interesting

#

they offer complex arguements depending on if youre for or against them

#

id honestly love to hear what your take is

manic coral
#

All I'll say is that this relies on quite a few assumptions

wheat walrus
#

The hottest take

ionic harness
#

hi cei

wheat walrus
#

Erm achualy

ionic harness
#

yharim kinda sucks fr

wheat walrus
#

There's more

ionic harness
#

i wont even sugar coat it

#

he genocided everyone

#

not just gods

#

to me, he kinda hides his genocidal side under a false sense of heroisism

#

claiming that hes doing it for the dragons

#

im not truing to argue

#

but im just like

#

sharing my own perspective

wheat walrus
#

Yknow you're right when talking about gods in a sense, but not all gods were like that as far as we know, that's Yharim's flawed assumption and definitely one of the assumptions Cei pointed at

#

Still

#

Yharim was justified in starting a war given what was done to him, but he was not justified in taking it anywhere near as far as he did

#

That's my take

wheat walrus
#

Sadly, we don't have much material about gods besides Yharim's takes, but the little we have quite notably implies that not all gods suck honestly

#

The dmmaxxer

do you have a source for this that isn't the dude who wants to kill them all

wheat walrus

He doesn't yet

that ignores all possible naunce

Pretty sure he's slowly reading the doc right now, think he mentioned that earlier

earnest flare

nuh uh

#

my man aquatic scourge is innocent

spring helm
#

Even yharim himself says that nobody knows what happened between Xeroc and Zeratros.
It is quite possible that since Zeratros was dying and his power was going to be lost forever, he wanted to pass his power on to someone he trusted (Xeroc).

ionic harness
#

like that shrek meme with the frog

#

What if the dragons couldn't uuhhh respawn due to moonlord and big head dragon (forgor his name) kinda willingly let xeroc sloorp his soul? And yeah maybe that caused some bad actors do it with unwilling dragons... and some that see it as complete bullshit and a major L (Yharon) who spreads only his biased side?

Just a lil cracklurk theory

what if the whole war was a complex event where each side had its own reasoning as to why they did certain things, similar to the Cold War where it was much less people being morally wrong/right

earnest flare
oblique comet

who

#

me?

spring helm
#

That last line of prelude especially

One mortal, sworn to the service of the Dragons, rose in determination to save their virtuous King.
Xeroc approached Zeratros with the intention of saving the dragon's life.
Considering that Xeroc was the first god, it is possible that Zeratros taught him the ritual to ascend. Perhaps it was a secret that the dragons kept in case a situation like this ever occured

ionic harness

let kaya cook

I refined it and had the initial idea but she made the content

xeroc ascended because the dragons frankly weren't capable of defending the planet and that was demonstrated very plainly

personally I just like killing people imo tbh tbf imho iirc

Braelor is stuck in distortion and statis is free

no

# spring helm

Here's one interpretation of it:

It says "even the stone refused the course of time". This implies that on the Dragon Aerie, nothing ever changed. Ever since the dragon came into power, however long ago that was, the world had remained stagnant.

The monk is obviously Xeroc, who I think is currently deliberating on the ascension ritual and whether to perform it.
The line "Who dared to question history and stare into fate" tells me that Xeroc is the first person in history to have the power to change the status quo and have a desire to do so.

"An entity of many titles and reputations, it is easy to conflate the truth and myths of its many legendary deeds. Though Yharim once believed that the essence he devours is utterly and completely erased from existence, it is a fundamental rule of creation that energy cannot be destroyed– it can only be transferred from one form to another."

ok but like
why arent the exos' names displayed as what the terrarian thinks they are called like the regular mechs

is there a lore reason

one of the unfortunate cases of an annoyingly arrogant person being justified

ok but draedon did name the hallowed mechs

nuh uhhhh

earnest flare
#

he was just worse at naming when they were made

warm gull
#

why did draedon name skeletron prime that

spring helm
#

yeah but the terrarian didnt know them
i meant draedon tells the terrarian the exo-mech's names before you fight them

warm gull
#

like did he specifically know about the random old man cursed at the dungeon and name it after his curse

ionic harness
#

draedon didnt name the original mechs

that was us

oh gotcha

he'll get to see you name them in real time

draedon likes to watch

draedon tells us the real name and we just keep calling them our dumbass ones in forced ignorance

to assert dominance

"I killed it so I get to name it"

the year is 1900 or something, draedon has made a new trio of mechanical creations

andromeda was that scrapped draedon fight right

you know why doesnt draedon always enrage ares-

mfw enraging is a game mechanic and not lore based

No they have an explanation for night prov I think

wheat walrus

night prov lore reason getting dropped once yharim comes out

#

also why doesnt draedon just constantly keep skeletron prime in the mode that instakills and takes no damage

ionic harness

that one has to be energy

that doesnt have the exo prisms

skeletron prime can be enraged until the next night energy is not a concern

omni can you calculate the power level of scal suddenly manifesting that many terraria blocks worth of volume instantly

wheat walrus
#

Idk

spring helm
#

how many blocks are there

#

actually i'll just look it up

#

so

#

632 blocks

wheat walrus
#

we'd need to find their 3rd dimension size and their density before calcing anything

#

3rd dimension size can just be assumed to be a cube ig

spring helm
#

assuming she only generates the blocks we can see, 632 cubic meters of

#

block

#

idk the density

wheat walrus
#

idk

wheat walrus
#

1 block is 2 ft wide, or 0,6096 meters wide

spring helm
#

really?

wheat walrus
#

assuming they're as wide as they are tall, just do 0,6096 x 0,6096 to get the 2dimensional surface area of one block

spring helm
#

i thought it was a meter

oblique comet
#

3m tall terrarian...

wheat walrus
#

however we'll assume it's 3d so lemme change that rq

spring helm
#

okay so, assuming that the 3-dimensional cube calamitas makes is 159x159x159, according to my calculator that makes 100,488 blocks

#

oh wait

wheat walrus
#

that'd be 0,0513 cubic meters per block

spring helm
#

my bad im missing 2 more faces

wheat walrus
#

but I was mainly looking at individual blocks

wheat walrus
#

assuming that each of the blocks we see has a 3rd dimension

#

but it also assumes that it's still a square and not a full box

spring helm
#

okay so added the last two faces of the cube if the arena was 3d
2(159x159) + 2(159x157) + 2(157x157)

149,786

#

correct my math if i'm wrong

#

so a 3d box arena would have 149,786 blocks

#

55,660.4476 cubic meters

wheat walrus
wheat walrus
#

now we need a density

spring helm
#

okay then

#

let's just make a rough estimate

#

the arena block kinda looks like brimstone slag

#

makes sense thematically since Calamitas uses Brimstone magic

#

of course brimstone slag isn't exactly real

#

so i'm going to substitute it with a real life mineral that kinda fits

#

Good day lore dwellers

gypsum is a soft mineral that contains sulfur and has a density of around 2.3 g/cm^3. Granite has a density of around 2.5 2.8 g/cm^3 and is much tougher so this is a lowball.

converting our units, that's 2300kg/m^3

so Omni's 2d calculation of the arena would amount to 74,569.68kg of blocks.
Using Einstein's famous equation of mass-energy equivalence, that's 6.7x10^18 kilojoules of energy which is about 1601 megatons of TNT

#

hello

wheat walrus
#

Yesssss

#

Lesssss gooo

warm gull
#

So in order to instantly fabricate 74,569.68 kilograms of blocks, you need 6.7x10^18 kilojoules of energy??

leaden bridge
#

Megatons

spring helm
#

so for the energy needed to make a 159x159x159 box of gypsum

2300kg/m^3 * 55,660.4476 cubic meters

128,019,029.5kg of gypsum

which has an energy equivalent of 1.15x10^22 kilojoules or 2,748,565.97 megatons of tnt

#

damn

warm gull
#

To be fair creating matter from nothing seems harder than boiling water

wheat walrus
#

Yea

spring helm
#

making an arena pushed calamitas to replicating half the power of her greatest feat

warm gull
#

but calamitas can summon infinite numbers of these arenas

spring helm
#

making and shaping likely requires much more

wheat walrus
#

Mass-energy conversion

warm gull
#

It's fucking insane to me that matter is just like

#

really really dense energy

#

and vice versa

spring helm
#

if you try to pull apart two quarks (which really really don't want to be separated), the amount of energy added to the system to overcome the strong force will generate two new quarks to bond to the originals

warm gull
#

And it's weird that it requires so much to change a tiny piece of matter into energy and that it reacts so violently

spring helm
#

anyway now we get a canon reason as to why calamitas is stronger in Legendary difficulty

#

the arena is smaller so she spends less energy creating it

sly bloom
#

If you work with mass-energy conversions for creating matter, then creating a gram is city level. That's a Hiroshima bomb

but that's probably just my preference anyways

I tried to diverge from blue colors because I think there's already a lot of blue things in the abyss

and again its a fantasy creature so it dosent rly matter tbh

buoyant inlet
#

Like iban was very innovative

#

Triangle is too

pliant ruin
#

i think the newer designs have been rly innovative but i kind of see what you mean though its mostly to do with some of the like

#

semi-recent but nto actually too recent side of things

random mulch
#

ravager's redesign is so god damn good

pliant ruin
#

like i think it's important to acnowledge that alot of the time it's not just the sprite that's outdated, it's the design too

#

polterghast's resprite would've not been anywhere near as cool as it seems like it will be if we got a sprite of the same level of quality that kept the plantera looking design

random mulch
#

real

pliant ruin
#

like

#

we have 3 space worms and 2 of them are incredibly similar design-wise

#

wouldnt it be cool if one of them was de-wormified

#

or atlesat just given a significantly more distinct design

#

deus being dewormified has been a popular idea from what ive seen but may i add that i think weaver could work for it too

#

the only issue would be that it'd make yharim seem unreasonably stupid for thinking its the same species as dog but thats just a minor thing that can be changed

random mulch
#

i dont mind the worms outright, but being too similar is an issue

#

vanillamity's take on deus is still a worm in some sense but it's a lot more distinct compared to DoG & weaver

warm gull
strong notch
random mulch
#

wouldnt be surprised of cosmic guardians god removed with the DoG rework

strong notch
#

why would he need them with that size increase

#

i honestly wonder how the fight will look like with DoG actually being the size of DoG and not just a slightly larger Storm Weaver

random mulch
#

i hope the rest of DoG's body isnt just purple generic worm

warm gull
#

I literally can't imagine how a worm fight would work at that scale

strong notch
#

Would be cool if those were like background attacks

random mulch
strong notch
#

kinda like Inf Ares

open ruin
#

Oversized exo beams

split mortar
#

I think dog will have much fewer segments to account for the fact that its head is like the size of moonlord

random mulch
#

indeed, DoG will have less segments

scenic olive
#

DoG

spring helm
#

Unsegmented dog

humble folio
#

DoG rework is gonna be like, massive right

random mulch
#

absolutely enormous

humble folio
#

iirc i saw a post here showing DoG ingame to be the size of like, yharon

#

the terrarian is like the height from 1 jaw to another if we talk in game no?

#

iirc

#

based off that it sounds bigger but not that much bigger

random mulch
#

complete and utter big boie

spring helm
#

All that size increase just to get gapped by the 5’ Calamitas

humble folio
gritty dawn
#

starlight river lore items

#

AURORACLE : 1) Is worshipped by the squiddites race, this race never shows up ingame, probably died out

#
  1. we can make the guess that it is not a god since it has to channel aurora light just like the empress of light, who is not a god
#
  1. literally in the same general are as draedon and the archmage, might be worth mentioning somehow
#

VITRIC DESERT : 1) was a part of illmeris

#
  1. has a forge in it indicating that is was somehow industrial
#
  1. is located above the sunken sea, might have something to do with it surviving?
#
  1. is tended to by the glassweaver, and at some point by ceiros ( or atleast the temple in the center of it was )
#
  1. might have been created by the glassweaver as far as we know, probably unrelated
frozen axle
#

I thought is calamity lore? This is star bridge liver mod

gritty dawn
#

would this work?

gritty dawn
frozen axle
#

Am very good at terria

spring helm
#

ok

gritty dawn
#

ok

frozen axle
#

sorry

gritty dawn
#

GLASSWEAVER : 1) is ancient as far as we know, and is some sort of an glass insect so that might explain it

#
  1. might have worked under the two gods that lived in the sea, that being the god of electricity ( Otonilou, dead? ) and the god of the sea ( Tyrian, alive in the sunken sea, atleast i think from the spoilers )
#
  1. lost control of the forge at some point, so there were probably more like him
#
  1. there is crystal in the sunken sea already so we could add that the crystal in the vitric desert would have been special in some way? i mean they have glass like properties
#

just wanted to add that in

#

CEIROS : 1) damaged sentinel that now guards the forge, might have been damaged in the destruction of illmeris

#

i dont know what else to add to ceiros maybe that there were more sentinels protecting the area?

#

i mean the whole vitric desert is still a desert, so it must have been attacked by calamitas

spring helm
#

not necessarily

#

it's not like the desert above the sunken sea is canonically the only desert on the continent

gritty dawn
pliant ruin
#

otonilou and tyrian

gritty dawn
#

anything else i got wrong

#

like it wouldnt make sense in calamity lore

pliant ruin
#

don't think so

gritty dawn
scenic olive
#

The Auricle

gritty dawn
#

it has to be from the perspective of yharim and all

scenic olive
#

oracle but in calamity

#

and it knows all about auric souls

gritty dawn
#

no i dont think auroracle would be a god

#

also that would like slime god 2.0

pliant ruin
#

i mean

#

idk anything about starlight river

#

but its like

#

a big squid

gritty dawn
#

yeah in a temple

pliant ruin
#

could just be a surviving creature from illmeris or something idk lol

gritty dawn
#

how would it get into the underground tundra biome?

pliant ruin
#

maybe it was transported there

#

like when it was a juvenile or somethintg

gritty dawn
#

i mean there is an extinct race connected to it

pliant ruin
#

some people see this weird squid beast and theyre like this must be a sign of GOD and they start worshipping the squid beast even though its literally just a random creature taht dosent understand what anything these people are saying mean but they give it free food so it dosent care

gritty dawn
#

oh yeah to the vitric crystal it has the property of channeling starlight

#

i forgot to add that

pliant ruin
#

i think thats a concept people should explore more

scenic olive
#

Is it ok to write up a lore on already dead god

gritty dawn
scenic olive
#

yk because theres so many gods

pliant ruin
#

people worshipping something but said something is actually just a random ass creature that dosen't understand why these people worship it but it gets free food and water so it dosent care

#

it happens in real life too but i dont see it often in media

scenic olive
#

but we only see 2 and a half god in the mod

pliant ruin
#

if you want to lol

gritty dawn
#

i mean from the perspective of yharim it would be like " an ancient beast, now abandoned in its place of worship "

gritty dawn
#

also in starlight river there is water in the tundra

pliant ruin
#

it couldve also just been from like

#

the ocean

gritty dawn
#

i think it was like some ancient beast of a former time, frozen when the tundra first formed

#

discovered by an underground race that thought it was their god

#

" ancestor of channeling magic "

#

might have been one of the reasons archmage lived in the tundra i think?

gritty dawn
pliant ruin
#

the ocean probably fits that

#

theres some pretty cold waters out there

gritty dawn
#

like i think it could have lived in the ocean that then got frozen over or something

scenic olive
#

what is a soul

#

in calamity

gritty dawn
gritty dawn
pliant ruin
#

if you want to write a yharim whisper item you gotta make yourself sound very self righteous and pretentious

#

and if its a god you have to insult it somehow

#

but i dont think the squid is a god in this case

gritty dawn
#

i dont think it is a god

#

and i think it was worshipped as one, so i dont know how yharim would think of the worshippers

#

like they found an ancient beast that predated magic, built a temple around it, and worshipped the unthinking thing

#

and permafrost studied it for inspiration or something idk lol

urban hedge
pliant ruin
#

yeah he'd probably insult the squidditees

gritty dawn
#

yeah he probably would to that

#

anyways how would the squiddites have gone extinct?

#

i mean draedon would be one anwser, but it could have been idk some natural cavein since they pretty much lived underground

#

most of their shrine things are underground except for that one all the way at the top

pliant ruin
#

i doubt draedon would go out of his way to make a entire species extinct, if anything i imagine he'd oppose that unless it was something he deemed necessary

urban hedge
# gritty dawn yeah he probably would to that

Since it seems like the Squiddites have gone extinct, he'd probably say something about how their "foolishness" led them to not only worship a relatively weak creature as if it were a god, but also led them to extinction

pliant ruin
#

He'd probably want to preserve the existence of said species to further discover things about it

gritty dawn
gritty dawn
#

so the lore item would have to mention

#

" remaining specimen of an ancient species capable of channeling aurora light in their hunt "

#

" discovered by a underground squiddite race, which deemed it a god "

#

" their foolishness in such led them to their inevitable demise when dealing with such an ancient beast "

#

and there would be something like

#

uhh

gritty dawn
#

i mean its an ancient beast which learned to channel " primordial light ", something simular to the giant clams using magic

#

and yharim does value queen bees

urban hedge
#

Not sure if he would like Auroracle nearly as much as bees

gritty dawn
#

bees

pliant ruin
#

The thing isn't that he exactly values bees that much

#

that's just kind of a meme

#

it's more so that he despises exerting control over others and he laments draedon doing that to a queen bee, leading him to pity them

gritty dawn
#

so would he say something like " such beasts should remain relics of the past ", or something like " such foolishness should be avoided " or something

#

i would say something like " such is the fate of fools who think better of themselves " but the squddites really just sort of worshipped the thing, i dont know if they got anything out of it

#

i mean there is randomly scattered aurora glass in the tundra, but thats about it

#

the beastiary entry is this : "An aquatic titan that stalks the impossibly cold waters behind its temple, channeling the light of the aurora into powerful magic to hunt its prey."

#

just thought i would mention that

untold oracle
#

What’s the most extreme atrocity Yharim committed?

gritty dawn
#

burning people alive completely fine by yharim

untold oracle
#

What I mean is like the most disastrous act he has done

spring helm
#

I don’t think Yharim would insult people because they worship a false god

#

He doesn’t for Astrum Deus

spring helm
#

That’s because their original god left

untold oracle
spring helm
#

Exactly

#

Astrum Deus isn’t a real god so he doesn’t hate it

#

The lihzahrds created a false god to replace their old one

#

There is a minor difference

gritty dawn
#

i think the other reason could be because they tried to make a temple for an ancient predator?

#

like

untold oracle
#

He doesn’t see golem as a god

#

I think

gritty dawn
#

something like that

spring helm
#

Golem isn’t a god, but the lihzahrds used to have one

untold oracle
#

Iirc he only hunts gods that consumed auric souls

spring helm
#

That’s likely why he doesn’t like them

untold oracle
#

So why does he hunt slime god then

spring helm
#

Because slime god is a real god

gritty dawn
spring helm
#

It absorbed an auric soul

untold oracle
#

Really?

spring helm
untold oracle
#

I thought it was some being that formed a long long time ago

gritty dawn
#

anyways i dont know how to conclude the auroracle lore

spring helm
#

Yharim hates gods because to become a god, you have to absorb an auric dragon’s soul, which kills them permanently

spring helm
#

Astrum Deus is sinless because it’s just some random animal that people started to worship because they saw it eating stars

untold oracle
#

I thought there were ”pure” gods too, that just exist

spring helm
#

Which is kind of similar to the squid thing you were talking about

untold oracle
#

At least iirc in the old lore slime god just existed

gritty dawn
#

i think i might add a detail that they fed auroracle to gain a piece of its aurora light, which explains the aurora glass

untold oracle
#

And created all slimes

gritty dawn
#

if you know they died of another reason

untold oracle
#

It would be so cool if Yharim flies on Yharon in the fight

#

Would make sense

spring helm
#

Yharon’s dead before you fight Yharim

untold oracle
#

But you don’t consume Yharon’s soul

#

So it doesn’t truly die

spring helm
#

Yharon will reincarnate, but that will take years

untold oracle
#

Ah

spring helm
#

Yharim’s only got like ten years left to live

delicate oak
#

i love how draedon basically explains the reasons of a fucked up worldgen

untold oracle

#

untold oracle
#

I don’t wanna spoil myself too much

#

(Lmao why am I in this channel then)

spring helm
#

Lmao

#

Fair enough

untold oracle
#

It’s nice to read the lore bits

delicate oak
#

what god would you be if you somehow consumed yharon's soul?

#

i think its "the rebirth god"

untold oracle
#

Yharim has very mixed morals
Genocide - perfectly fine
Slavery - how DARE you

delicate oak
spring helm
untold oracle
spring helm
#

It would be related, but different

untold oracle
#

If said like that

spring helm
#

Slime God absorbed the auric soul of gluttony

#

The god of sacrifices absorbed the auric soul of death

untold oracle
#

How about providence?

delicate oak
untold oracle
#

Providence is such a cool boss, looks just sick

spring helm
#

The only two examples of gods whose domains exactly match their dragons are Silve (life) and Xeroc (primordial light)

delicate oak
#

maybe like a "resurrection god" where instead of you being reborn, you make others reborn

#

its almost similar but not quite

spring helm
#

Maybe the god of cycles

delicate oak
#

or god of attempts because everytime you die, you respawn stronger (this did not make sense 😭)

untold oracle
#

I loved bumblebirb, wish they’ll make it a pet item from Yharon or Dragonfolly

ionic harness
#

Birb goes hard

delicate oak
untold oracle
#

Haven’t seen one

delicate oak

or maybe not

untold oracle
#

About wrath of the gods, is nameless deity Xeroc like some people say or is it just literally God

humble folio
#

It’s based off old lore (before the from the ashes update) xeroc

#

Who was just, a nigh omnipotent god of light created by other lesser light gods becoming one

#

It’s also why it kills noxus at the end of the fight

wheat walrus
#

everything else typhoon said I'd say is correct

delicate oak
wheat walrus
#

it's fanmade

gritty dawn
#

okay i somewhat formed a lore item thing for auroracle i think

wheat walrus
#

besides it was one of the calamity devs who requested for Nameless to not have Xeroc's name since that would cause a lot more confusion

delicate oak
#

i know but

gritty dawn
#

AURORACLE

  • " the remaining specimen of an ancient aquatic species capable of channeling aurora light in their hunt "
  • " discovered preserved in ice by an underground squiddite race, which would begin worshipping it as their god "
  • " they would present offerings to their false deity in exchange for parts of its primordial light in the form of shards,
    which they would construct their shrines and temples out of "
  • " in the end, their foolishness led to their inevitable demise when dealing with such an ancient beast "
  • " the remains of their now bygone civilization stand as a testament, to those who think they can bend the ancient forces of this world to their will "

i just want to name a nameless deity

gritty dawn
#

here is what i got

wheat walrus
pliant ruin
#

they probably just want to keep it nameless deity because it sounds unknowable and cool and stuff

#

like theoretically it probably has a name its just that we dont know it and cant comprehend it or whatever

gritty dawn
#

not really happy with it to be honest

delicate oak

wish theres a mod that makes you rename any bosses

How strong is fovos/moon lord exactly?

#

Compared to xeroc and the others

delicate oak
wheat walrus
#

current moonlord is well

#

current moonlord level

#

but at his prime for all we know he's only second to current Xeroc

#

still doesn't get past Country Level rn XD

delicate oak
#

since the ashes update, is most post moonlord bosses on par with moon lord? (providence and polterghast are mose likely)

gritty dawn
spring helm
# gritty dawn do you have any problems with it?

not a big problem, but i still don't see why yharim has an issue with the squiddites worshipping a false god.

Unless of course you mean for Yharim to dislike the Auroracle's existence due to its ability to use Primordial Light, something that he sees as only Zeratros should be able to. Then he would dislike the squiddites in turn for worshipping it.

If that was the case, then I'd add a little section comparing the Auroracle to the dragons. Something like "Only the dragons were worthy".

this is so goofy mane

the tiny explosion that took out yamcha during the saiyan saga would unironically destroy anyone in calamity

I'm not kidding when I say that one saibaman is at least moon level unironically

Also I noticed moon lord doesn't have his own lore item just drops the requiem

gritty dawn

#

for calling moonlord and fovos

open ruin
spring helm

easy enough comparison

Master Roshi blew up the moon during the 21st budokai tenckaichi. Goku and Piccolo would both far suprass that by the beginning of Dragon Ball Z. Then Raditz easily gapped those two in raw strength. Saibamen are all Raditz level.

btw, how does the terrarian scale? (based off the bosses it has beaten)

pliant ruin

if providence had a bible it'd just be the lowtiergood speech over and ovre and nothing else

spring helm
#

only has high AP, no destructive feats
Calamitas solos

unironically yamcha would destroy every calamity character

they do share one thing in common though is that they're all connected to the distortion somehow

you fougth him after her for a reason lol

the boss progression roughly matches the canon power level of the bosses

what is the strongest modded terraria boss ever? like the strongest? (excluding mods that adds stuff from other games (gensokyo mod), and joke bosses (like echdeath from an old version of fargo's souls)
