Honestly, I think it would be interesting if our character was more of an anomaly, a being that could always come back for some reason, able to fashion the parts of dead deities into weapons and armor in mear seconds.

My Terrarian is a girl named [my irl name] from [my city] that somehow go teleported into the Terraria Calamity Mod. Being faced with Yharim's wrath, she faced tons of challenges such as beating several mechanical worms and seeing her discord account's namesake dead . At last, she slayed whatever Yharim still was and became the new god slayer of the Terraria Calamity Mod.

In my head

calamity should expand the world and add a scary like area under the underworld called uhhh something And its like a new world Kinda

not possible

no But it Should be

the code simply cannot handle enlarging a world size

The underworld king is probably yharim if I were to pick the closest thing, since he had ties to azafure

Cant they just move the underworld up

Then you have to find the unicorn statue at the edge of hell

whats your FAVOURITE biome

astral or sunken sea

Sunken sea

Use the profaned core near the unicorn statue

Enter the sky temple and fight the secret hidden elemental boss

astral will be better than it is currently when they do the rework [although it won't be on the scale of SSO and BCO]

And then only then can you get an item that transforms you into a Fierce Deity version of yourself

whaat i love it

I think eventually I'm just going to mod my ideas in

i thought it was just a filler biome

like yea.... its pretty when you first arrive on it ig but it barely has any content

And have calamity as DLC like fargos souls

and its not supposed to be...

lusty grove
pliant ruin
#

ya

#

its gonna have like

lusty grove
#

Until right above hell iirc

pliant ruin
#

a bunch of different sub-biomes

#

and all of the creatures on it are being redesigned with a bunch of new ones being added

stark basalt
#

my ideas? so smart. very

split mortar
#

Then start learning

olive knoll
#

you have to learn C# I think

pliant ruin
#

does anyone have

olive knoll
#

Theres tutorials online

pliant ruin
#

that one image with all the triangle sunken sea creatures

#

i cant find it :(

dry igloo
#

And the Astral infection is quite terrifying lore wise, I wonder what would happen if it had enough time to spread and evolve, just how much could it take over.

split mortar
#

I have a old one

olive knoll
#

I spent 7 months learning the hammer editor

#

code shouldnt be too hard after I have enough time

pliant ruin
#

sulphurous sea is also getting reworked

split mortar
pliant ruin
#

tho not to the same degree as sunken sea but

#

every enemy is getting redesigned

#

and acid rain is being changed

dusk laurel
#

and some new tiles

pliant ruin
#

n also possibly some world gen changes? like new tiles n stuff ye

split mortar
#

Though cleansing it may be a hassle

pliant ruin
#

its literally just the calamity version of update aquatic...

lusty grove
#

After that we are gonna get crags overhaul, though its gonna be like 3-4 years from when SSO gets released tho id bet

split mortar
#

But yeah astral infection still spooky in lore

dry igloo
dusk laurel
dry igloo
#

I want to see what would happen if the Astral infection managed to take over a dragon.

dusk laurel
#

3-4 years for crags overhaul?

lusty grove
#

Its not an accurate statement btw

pliant ruin
#

i feel like 3-4 years might b a bit too much personally.... idk

dusk laurel
#

i estimated it'd be 1-2 years

lusty grove
#

Im not a dev nor im friends with any

pliant ruin
#

i feel like... after SSO gets added

split mortar
pliant ruin
#

there'd b some minor content updates inbeetween it and crags

lusty grove
#

Unless its someone else that does the design

pliant ruin
#

so id wager on... umm...

lusty grove
dusk laurel
#

like 22 happened while SSO was getting developed

dry igloo
pliant ruin
#

maybe 1 or 2 years

dusk laurel
#

so it delayed a lot

pliant ruin
#

after sunken sea... i think

split mortar
#

Yeah a auric dragon on average equals a eidolon wyrm on average

lusty grove
#

Because iirc tringle said he doesnt want to work on crags didnt he? (Correct me if im wrong choese)

pliant ruin

on how strong u view eidolon wyrms as

lusty grove

Also late hai choese

hiii

it still depends

but even then

it still depends

split mortar
pliant ruin

like do u consider eidolon wyrms to b stronger than astrum deus or weaker.... cuz they come later in progression but one is a full on boss while another is a miniboss

so its

arguable

Pretty sure Rebecca said a wyrm is like plantera level

Iā€™ll check

Also how did providence avoid yharim for so long

Honestly, y'all know what would be cool?
Calamity secret seeds.

You know how the getfixedboi seed involves the whole surface being the world evil?
What if it was the astral infection, a world in which Dreadon has already left the planet, Yharim and Calamitas are nowhere to be found, and all remnants of life are hiding deep underground, or in the overgrown abyss where Silva lays.

like... eidolon wyrms being on the level of a early-mid hardmode boss while dragonfollies and OD are both post ml

And the rest of the ppl where

when the word "max" is invisible

i see

indigo glade
# pliant ruin worshippers don't make a god stronger, i don't think

In Providence's lore item, Yharim implies that Providence somehow got stronger due to her followers' belief.

"Those devoted to her were weak-willed, and yet she reigned as one of the mightiest Gods.
Perhaps it was their easily-swayed nature, that let her draw so much power from themā€¦"

However, in the Hive Mind lore item, he implies that a God having followers have no bearing on their strength.

"Far from all divine power flows from faith. A God is forged of its own strength; followers may choose to worship."

pliant ruin
#

Hmm yeah

#

might be a thing

#

Actually

#

Far from all divine power flows from faith.

#

All

#

So....

#

This dosen't outright say they don't get power from worshippers... just that it's not the main source of their power... so um

#

i think this implies they do get stronger? Just ... it's not exactly the most important part of it

spring helm
#

maybe that's where torch god came from

#

power from people putting their faith in torches to keep them safe from the dark

#

especially since there were a lot of underground civilizations back in the day

lusty grove
#

Since it was a creature that was consiserably worshipped iirc

spring helm
#

Maybe not divinity, but some other power source

#

Or

#

Actually yeah I donā€™t see anything wrong with Deus having divine power

cosmic zenith
#

I disagree with the notion that Eidolon Wyrms are Plantera-level

#

I feel like they'd be at least late-HM

spring helm
#

i think it would be funny if they were empress of light tier

wheat walrus
#

they should be moonlord level so that one could think about how moonlord went from destroying dragon armies to being an average dragon level threat

#

which would still be strong too

#

but it'd be funny

fovos when i blow him up

[he is now primordial dust]

"No doubt aided by Silva as she burrowed through to the underworld."

no, those are the whole stars

stars in calamity range from pebble sized to large boulder sized

and additionally swell up when dying or dead

(star boulders are getting added now)

the moon, the astral infection and the sun are the only noteworthy things in space that aren't just animals that directly affect the world

ā€˜simplyā€™ add a new npc called the Astronomy Anton šŸ„“

indigo glade
# sinful adder no, those are the whole stars

They aren't whole stars, they are considerably smaller when falling onto planets.

"When a star begins to die ... its power simply fades as it falls to the nearest celestial body." This is from Astrum Deus' bestiary entry.

#

holy shit Age of Calamity would actually work as a title ngl

sinful adder
indigo glade
# sinful adder this isn't very good evidence. Power fading does not require shrinking

And your evidence is literally "it could not be like that". You haven't put any evidence to disprove my theory that power fading also equates to a loss of total mana in the star, and therefore shrinking occurs. Regardless, I have another piece of evidence that further proves my theory.

"Nightfall is a good time for practicing magic. We mages often rely on celestial bodies and their fragments to enhance our mana."

A quote from Permafrost.

#

Permafrost quite literally says that fragments of stars exist and help with doing magic.

sinful adder
#

You don't have to be hostile about it. This second quote is significant evidence.

a wild calamity

dusk laurel
#

wall of text

#

but important nonetheless.

cold owl
#

SSO gonna go crazy

cold owl
cosmic zenith
#

It's just a minor edit

#

From deity to entity

#

Just to leave it a bit more mysterious

cold owl
#

Good enough since, well, it's torch god.

#

Writers and devs are cooking on SSO

dusk laurel

Bone Serpent
Demon
Voodoo Demon
Red Devil
these might be interesting

cold owl
#

We're gonna eat good

dusk laurel
#

more lore on the underworld

cosmic zenith
#

Bone Serpent is the coolest imo

#

It combines the best of vanilla and Calamity lores

cold owl
cosmic zenith
#

I'm glad I got to write that one

cold owl
dusk laurel
#

lucky you

#

429 - Completely rewrote various vanilla Bestiary entries. - Done āœ…

sinful adder
#

The underworld was once ruled by dragons and now only bone serpents remain

cosmic zenith
#

I won't say more than
It's cooler than that

#

You guys should have plenty of stuff to speculate about here

#

Like, for example, what the hell we would do with Undead Viking, Icy Merman, Harpy or Goblin Sorcerer

sinful adder
#

I see

#

I imagine all the past civilizations that existed also get reanimated by the weird magic that exists in terraria

cosmic zenith
#

When would've said civilizations have lived?

#

Things are rarely as shallow :)

#

Not that I'm confirming that theory, just encouraging you to think more about what things can mean

keen hull
#

What happen to absorbed auric soul after gods died? Turned into god's remnant like crimson/corruption?

cosmic zenith
#

Firstly, the Auric soul gets merged with the person's soul when they ascend, so it already ceases to exist there

#

When a God dies, their soul dissolves into godly essence, which can create stuff like the evil biomes or Hallow if left to fester

keen hull
#

And that's why Yharim recruit DoG

#

I remember that some god found dragon that's already dead and able to get their hand on auric soul.

So, Yharon wasn't present in dragon aerie at that time so it can't be revived or its auric soul need to be brought back to dragon aerie first?

pliant ruin
#

maybe they were trying to gt to the ocean

cosmic zenith
#

That was, ironically, one of the drafts

#

But I brought up the case that they're way too standardized to be Ilmerians, and it'd be kinda eh to tie every aquatic humanoid to Ilmeris

#

So I wrote another version for it with different ideas, which ended up being established

pliant ruin
#

that's fair ye

sinful adder
# cosmic zenith When would've said civilizations have lived?

I see a few options.
1: Draconic era or earlier. Humans live under the rule of dragons or in disconnected prehistoric proto-civilizations
2: Deific era, civilizations rise and fall by normal means.
3: end deific era, civilizations razed to the ground by the yharmy

pliant ruin
#

could b part of a related species but not quite illmerans

#

maybe a more primitive species.. like how chimps/gorillas etc are related to humans XiaoThink

#

or, well, related species to the fish illmerans anywys

sinful adder
#

Since essence is never destroyed, and I assume there to be an "auric essence" that composes auric souls and the world soul, I wonder if godly essence would decay into its constituent parts by some process over geologic timescales?

pliant ruin
#

like tyrian

cosmic zenith
#

(Tyrian is an Ilmerian)

pliant ruin
#

ya ik but like

#

there's multiple species of sapient guys living in illmerans aren't there

#

like that's the entire thing with th 3 diff tribes

cosmic zenith
#

Yes, and they're all Ilmerians :p

pliant ruin
#

and how otonilou is a jellyfish and tyrian is a fish (not of the jelly variety)

pliant ruin
cosmic zenith
cosmic zenith
#

Mermen are distinct creatures

pliant ruin
#

ya ik but what im saying is like

#

what if mermen are biologically related to the fish species of illmerans in the same vein chimps and gorillas are related to humans

#

like, they're related to the likes of tyrian and such but not to that of otonilou since shes a jellyfish

cosmic zenith
#

Yeah, that's a fair assumption

pliant ruin
#

As for Goblin Sorcerers....

#

Statis seems to be associated with shadowflame somehow, dosen't he? The acessories and all

#

unless that's not applicable to current lore

sinful adder
#

miniscule pieces break off

cosmic zenith
#

Broken, not had splinters shaven off, but fair enough

sinful adder
#

the pieces are distinctly auric and allow for the taming of auric metal

cosmic zenith
#

It's technically essence, the way I see it

sinful adder
#

therefore, they retain their auric nature

#

I imagine that each ascendant spirit essence, canonically, is analogous to fusing a yharon soul fragment and another small soul, like one of night or light or ectoplasm/phantoplasm

dusk laurel
#

isn't ASE getting replaced

sinful adder
#

I was under the impression that the method to obtain it is being replaced but the concept remains

cosmic zenith
#

Possibly? Not sure until we get there

sinful adder
#

by the way, I thought of a start for a combination of like... deltarune and calamity. Mainly involving the legend thing.

#

still working on it

real silo
#

I mean dog ate godly essence and presumably it got sent to the distortion
ASE is literally ascendant spirit (god) essence

sinful adder
# 

It was         It was 
a LEGEND       a LEGEND 
of LIGHT       of DARK

It was         It was 
a LEGEND       a LEGEND 
of DRAGONS     of STARS 

This is the legend of
TERMINA RUNE
wheat walrus
#

anyways

#

interesting

dusk laurel
#

omni...

#

why the rotting

wheat walrus
# dusk laurel omni...

if you think about it, clash royale is a gacha game without the waifus and husbandos and specific banners

dusk laurel
wheat walrus
dusk laurel
#

but then 80% of roblox games are gacha then XD

wheat walrus
#

then so be it

dusk laurel
#

i support this movement

sinful adder
#

roblox has always(?) been predatory garbage

wet wadi
#

That's been my only experience with it

high lynx
#

I only play the good ones

#

90% of the time

#

Im kinda really good at stars align

#

Im not too good at phighting

gusty herald
#

Yesterday i asked about sbc and its lyrics being divided and stuff now i have another question:
Is there something like that for rotjd too?

calm patio
#

the lyrics of rotjd are canon, not the title, sbc isnt 100% canon however

#

going off what people have said here

mighty zenith
#

roar is like 99% canon

#

sbc includes the terrarian so it automatically falls under headcanon territory basically

#

at least partially

gusty herald
#

So all of rotjd is technically true?

calm patio
#

yes, the main thing is the title "rotjd" since yharon has nothing to deal with the jungle anymore

gusty herald
#

Is there a split in parts like sbc where it has like 4 parts

#

One for terrarian

#

One for scal and scal accepting defeat and shit

#

Is rotjd like that too or is it yharon talking

mighty zenith
#

nah, rotjd is just yharon

gusty herald
#

Ok thanks

frank dune
#

Hello lorers what were loring today

cosmic zenith
#

Finished translating the Yharim lore items to Br. Portuguese

rotund shore
#

Hell yeah we love a bilingual genocidal maniac

#

Jokes aside, translating seems like a tricky ass job

cosmic zenith
#

It's really fun

sudden ruin
#

talented

#

good job

pliant ruin

BRASIL NUMERO UM CAMPEAO DO MUNDO,,,

dusk laurel
#

very nice

nimble lagoon
#

why is lunatic cultist trying to summon moon lord

sinful adder
#

He isn't

#

He's trying to keep it sealed away

nimble lagoon
#

oh

sinful adder
#

It's different from vanilla

nimble lagoon
#

i gotcha

#

is there any lore for pillars

sinful adder
#

Coming in the next update!

nimble lagoon
#

oh sweet

#

wasnt the old lore for calmitas that yharim like turned her into a evil monster and she was forced to serve him

dusk laurel
#

kinda

mighty zenith
#

he put a curse on her that turned her into a weird eyeball thing

#

cause yharim was good at literally everything in old lore apparently

nimble lagoon
#

old lore draedon was like a world ender according tothe tv tropes page i read like a month ago

mighty zenith
#

calamity has a tv tropes page ?

pliant ruin
#

Didn't he go to space and bully draedon into submission

nimble lagoon
pliant ruin
nimble lagoon
#

aw man...

mighty zenith
#

its actually up to date lmao

#

i was fully expecting it to be like 4 years old outdated lore

nimble lagoon
#

is there a reason calclone is in a robot

#

or is it just cool

mighty zenith
#

its like her life support basically

#

its a lil weird and mostly there to explain why she's still an eyeball but once she gets resprited it should make more sense

nimble lagoon
#

ive seen the concept art for it

#

it look s cool

dusk laurel
#

there's no public concept art at the moment

mighty zenith
#

yea

nimble lagoon
#

oh

dusk laurel
#

what you saw was scrapped

nimble lagoon
#

ive seen the scrapped concept art

mighty zenith
#

the skull one is scrapped yes

nimble lagoon
#

does storm weaver have like a personality or is it just a monster

mighty zenith
#

ehh its implied to be part of a hive mind

nimble lagoon
#

oh right

mighty zenith
#

and its mostly just a wild animal

#

in terms of behavior

nimble lagoon
#

dog is like one of many right

dusk laurel
nimble lagoon
#

from his dimension

mighty zenith
dusk laurel
#

it's just a wild animal now

nimble lagoon
#

good for it

dusk laurel
#

eating wyverns and stuff

nimble lagoon
#

are they still like friends with the dog

mighty zenith
#

sorry weaver is really forgettable for me clueless

nimble lagoon
#

all the rune of kos bosses

dusk laurel
mighty zenith
dusk laurel
#

they are related

#

not friends

nimble lagoon
#

all from the distortion still?

dusk laurel
#

yes

mighty zenith
#

the only one with a mild connection to DoG is ceaseless

#

since he claimed to have created it (he's full of shit)

dusk laurel
nimble lagoon
#

exo mechs would be the most powerful boss right

#

like according to statements and stuff

dusk laurel
#

no

#

Xeroc, Noxus and Yharim will be stronger

#

to varying degrees

nimble lagoon
#

well

#

most powerful fightable boss

mighty zenith
#

in terms of raw strength, cal and exos are very similar in strength

manic coral
#

Yeah

#

What I was about to say

#

They're pretty even

#

It could really go either way

nimble lagoon
#

is calamitas also a freaky necromancer or are her brothers like illusions somehow

mighty zenith
#

necromancer

nimble lagoon
#

the bad kind or the no drawbacks kind

manic coral
#

And yeah speaking of I do wanna convey a bit more that characters like Yharim (who alreayd ahs a bit of clarification on this) and Calamitas didn't start THIS strong

dusk laurel
#

all necromancy isn't perfect

nimble lagoon
#

right

dusk laurel
#

look at ravager for example

nimble lagoon
#

draedon made all of their shit lol

mighty zenith
pliant ruin
manic coral
#

like draedon himself state that hhis goal for the exo mechs was to make them as strong as yharim was when they last met

mighty zenith
#

so yeah its flawed

manic coral
nimble lagoon
#

i guess we havent seen yharim in the mod yet huh

manic coral
#

Yharim has had his armor since before he even met Draedon

nimble lagoon
#

yeah

#

hm

mighty zenith
#

he got exo enhancements like a year before the game starts

#

so he spent 99% of the crusade with his regular armor

nimble lagoon
#

why is yharim so special to the gods at first

manic coral
#

But yeah Draedon didn't make it

#

He got it from somewhere else

nimble lagoon
#

like when they're trying to make him eat yharon

#

why him specifically

pliant ruin
#

Ppl assume that weaver is animalistic because it dosent have any like any lore so to us it just looks like a big monstruous worm , dog would b the same
It COULD be animalistic but whos to say it isnt

nimble lagoon
#

storm weaver doesnt even attack you until you summon it... curious...

manic coral
mighty zenith
#

i just assume he and yharon made it

#

but now you got me thinking

manic coral
#

How would Yharon make it? How would HE make it?

#

Where would he fidn Auric ore?

#

How could Yharon make armor?

#

He doesn't even have thumbs

mighty zenith
nimble lagoon
#

he could hold stuff

#

like not well but he could

mighty zenith
#

i mean like
help yharim figure it out

#

iunno

#

do we even have any leads as to how he got it

manic coral
dusk laurel
#

simple, yharon super-heats the auric to meld it, then he hands it over to yharim

manic coral
#

Even if he was, even DRAEDON struggles to work with the stuff

mighty zenith
#

it was made by john auric...

nimble lagoon
#

are noxus and xeroc and yharim the only plabned superbosses

manic coral
nimble lagoon
#

though i mean yharims the final boss so...

#

idk

nimble lagoon
mighty zenith
sinful adder
#

I thought yharim made the armor because he can work with auric via attunement

frank dune
#

Hello lore experts

nimble lagoon
#

the gods were already having someone make the armor for him?

manic coral
#

Again

#

With what auric?

#

Where?

nimble lagoon
#

they have some auric somewhere

#

big auric vault

sinful adder
#

Isn't it just in the ground?

manic coral
#

Not until Yharon dies

frank dune
sinful adder
#

I thought that wasn't canon

mighty zenith
#

how yharman got his armor

nimble lagoon
#

what even is auric i didnt read the Lore

sinful adder
#

I thought the auric was just always there but no one could touch it

manic coral
#

Nope

sinful adder
#

Huh.

manic coral
#

It only shows up after Yharon is dead

frank dune
#

Aint auric metal is just dragon shit

manic coral
#

Yes, but actually no

#

Kinda, but it's complicated

nimble lagoon
#

does becoming a god also make you evil

manic coral
#

No why would it

nimble lagoon
manic coral
#

Getting more/new power doesnt inherintly change your morality

sinful adder
#

In game, sure, but I could have sworn someone said that was just a gameplay thing and that it was always there

frank dune
#

On person

mighty zenith
#

exactly

manic coral
#

Unless there is direct evidence to prove otherwise, nothing is "just gameplay"

mighty zenith
#

it depends on the person

nimble lagoon
#

truth

#

truth nuke

mighty zenith
#

not just the ascension itself

nimble lagoon
#

but like

mighty zenith
#

if someone was evil before it, theyll still be evil after ascending

#

and vice versa

nimble lagoon
#

was there a reason no one tried to stop the dragons from getting eaten and stuff

manic coral
mighty zenith
#

or someone could redeem themselves with godly powers

sinful adder
#

Yharim thinks all the gods are evil because they all killed dragons and because that's what he wants to think

mighty zenith
#

... or vice versa

manic coral
#

There's no reason to assume something is "just gameplay"

sinful adder
nimble lagoon
#

wait so like

manic coral
#

Man I can't wait for SSO

nimble lagoon
#

from humanto dragon to god whats like the power ranking

#

liek is it

sinful adder
#

We don't know Xeroc's motives, but we know not all the dragons were good

mighty zenith
nimble lagoon
#

gods are the strongest dragons then humans

manic coral
mighty zenith
#

i really wanna see how exactly that works now

nimble lagoon
#

oh yeah i guess yharim's a human and he's the strongest

sinful adder
#

The average dragon was as strong as plantera, but slime god is also a god

nimble lagoon
#

or maybe hes not human

#

or something

manic coral
#

sure, dragons and gods are naturally more powerful, but like

sinful adder
#

And so is Providence

nimble lagoon
#

OH YEAH

manic coral
#

Xeroc was stronger than basically every dragon except Zeratros and maybe Yharon

nimble lagoon
#

is the pc still canonically immortal

manic coral
#

And theyw ere a human

manic coral
nimble lagoon
#

no i thought in old lore they were

#

i guess not

#

aw man

manic coral
#

that was never the case

#

even in old lore

frank dune
#

So xeroc was like yharim at power level?

nimble lagoon
#

reddit thread lied to me

manic coral
#

Debated internally among writers but left to itnerpertation

#

I personally say that, yes, Xeroc was stronger than Yharon

#

But not as strong, or at least as experienced and skilled, as Yharim

sinful adder
mighty zenith
#

people gaslit themselves into thinking that respawning is canon based on the lyrical songs

#

even though

frank dune
mighty zenith
#

those never mention respawning

#

even once

manic coral
#

That never even implied it in the first place either

nimble lagoon
#

cei you're too patient

#

i could not do this

manic coral
#

people jsut jumped to conclusions

nimble lagoon
frank dune
#

Yharim: i remember your respawns

manic coral
#

i just enjoy talking about things i work on

mighty zenith
#

also the fact eyeball scal acknowledged your deaths

#

that didnt help

nimble lagoon
#

so current calmitas isnt cursed it just really sucks for her to use her powers

manic coral
#

kinda, yeah

sinful adder
#

Eyeball scal was really just sans Undertale but edgy

frank dune
#

Human i remember your..

mighty zenith
split mortar
#

Also hello lore chat

manic coral
frank dune
#

Hello melon gun

dusk laurel
manic coral
#

less old eyeball scal was so-so characterization wise

nimble lagoon
#

dog's wearing armor right

dusk laurel
#

yes

#

phase 2

nimble lagoon
#

ah gross

mighty zenith
#

he's even more gross under that armor

dusk laurel
#

XD _ _

nimble lagoon
#

could u imagine being a giant evil sentient worm from another dimension

frank dune
#

Id cook bro

manic coral
mighty zenith
#

a little

manic coral
#

a smudge

dusk laurel
#

HDfailure _ _

#

a teensy bit

mighty zenith
#

he could have a little more power
as a treat

split mortar
#

Just a grain more

manic coral
#

like idm talking about this at this point cosndier a past event (if you know you know) but yeah like like yharim will have 200% hp

#

and tbh i'd also like Noxus to

mighty zenith
#

funny armstrong reference

manic coral
#

just bring that to its logical conclusion

#

give Xeroc 999.99% HP

nimble lagoon
#

truth nuke

mighty zenith
#

boss fight ends when he reaches 999.98% hp

manic coral
#

that'd imply yuo beat xeroc

#

but like

#

somewhere around 750%

nimble lagoon
#

i wonder

#

why like

frank dune
#

Is refighting bosses canon?

mighty zenith
#

nope

#

except scal

nimble lagoon
#

hold on im meltig

manic coral
#

only ones where it's mentioned that there's more than one

#

then it can be

mighty zenith
#

and maybe crabulon? but even thats up to debate

nimble lagoon
#

ok so pml bosses like

manic coral
split mortar
#

Thatā€™s a lot of health

nimble lagoon
#

from a narrative standpoint they're seeking you out?

mighty zenith
#

like, queen bee, dragonfolly and scal are the ones that make most sense

#

methinks

mighty zenith
manic coral
nimble lagoon
#

right

mighty zenith
#

like yharon deliberately seeks you out

nimble lagoon
#

so like, what did yharim plan to do with the essensces of the gods

manic coral
#

and yeah to clarify

nimble lagoon
#

could he even do anything with them

manic coral
#

what bosses do you canonically kill?

nimble lagoon
#

other than store them i mean

manic coral
#

whichever ones you choose to kill

#

thats the answer

dusk laurel
#

where's the image

mighty zenith
#

yeah only like
1/4th of the bosses is required

#

to beat the game

frank dune
manic coral
#

Like

mighty zenith
split mortar
#

Low% having you kill only 8 bosses

frank dune
#

I mean that the only thing thay makes sence

split mortar
mighty zenith
#

he wanted to get rid of any and all remnants of god influence

nimble lagoon
#

yeah other than that

split mortar
#

Devourer of gods

manic coral
#

"The player is such a monster they kill Queen Bee"

  1. It's fury could have jsut accidently been provoked. Which is, y'know, something that happenes in-game so much that it's basiclaly a community joke.
  2. It's entirely optional you can just not fight it
manic coral
nimble lagoon
#

what is it like to become a god if providence was a normal human

#

did she feel becomign a crystal

#

when she was transforming

mighty zenith
#

its crazy how many people just consider themselves the bad guy

manic coral
mighty zenith
#

like
they really just wanna be evil without admitting they're choosing to be evil

manic coral
#

yeah

#

it's weird

nimble lagoon
#

my charactter is good

manic coral
#

espeically because EVERY boss has a potential justifiable reason to fight

split mortar
#

Even aquatic scourge could be a accidental aggro

manic coral
#

i explicitly made sure of that

nimble lagoon
#

thats cool

mighty zenith
#

my terrarian just follows a very specific ideology

nimble lagoon
#

dude tgats really cool

mighty zenith
#

"if it affects the purity of the world, it should be destroyed"

manic coral
#

I left the player characters up to as much interpertation as possible
