#

Why does Calamitas try to kill us, what did we do

#

to her

mighty zenith
sleek halo
#

Reminded her of Yharim

split mortar
sleek halo
#

and she basically had a freak out

fierce pagoda
#

Yeha but couldn't she like, y'know try to talk it out first

#

like jeez

#

straight to throwing hands

split mortar
#

And what if we lie?

fierce pagoda
#

what if we didnt lie and she just fucking kills us

sleek halo
#

with reminders of her horrible past

#

= not reasonable in that moment

fierce pagoda
#

I guess she calms down after we beat some sense into her

untold oracle
split mortar
untold oracle
#

I think that the terrarian tries convincing her throughout the fight until she realizes she’s wrong and stops

fierce pagoda
#

Its just funny she goes from trying to kill you no questinos asked, and after you defeat her shes like "wow i'd really love to smell the flowers!" instead of like "I'm sorry for trying to kill you"

untold oracle

I was faster then you asking me to not send it

Btw

untold oracle
#

Would calamitas be a cat person?

sleek halo
#

I think she’d be too scared to own

#

any animal

split mortar
#

Litteraly

fierce pagoda
#

Does Calamitas get a nose bleed when she uses her powers like 11 from stranger things

real silo
#

She has a pet sepulcher

#

And a buncha birds

sleek halo
#

her power literally fucks with her psyche so

split mortar
fierce pagoda
#

so she gets brain damage?

sleek halo
#

More like

fierce pagoda
#

that can't be good

sleek halo
#

idk how to describe it

sleek halo
#

i mean in general it’s not good

split mortar
#

Brimstone flames just kinda fuck with your mental health and mental everything

#

Don’t think it’s brain damage

#

But it’s still not fucking good to go through

fierce pagoda
#

does it make you gray and give cracks to your skin

#

or was she always like that

untold oracle
#

Yeah

real silo
#

damageless brain damage

untold oracle
#

She’s azafurean

split mortar
#

I think that’s azafure stuff idk

fierce pagoda
#

zazafurian

untold oracle
#

I think the reason why azafureans have grey skin is because you can hide in the ash

split mortar
#

Evolution

untold oracle
#

Yea

real silo
#

Ash bath

fierce pagoda
#

Calamitas runs reverse cursed technique on her brain to heal it after every brimstone magic usage

cosmic minnow
#

Bro she ain’t gojo

fierce pagoda
#

||yeah shes alive||

split mortar
#

That reverse cursed technique would explode into brimstone fire

untold oracle

#

fake spoiler

#

made to seem like real spoielr

untold oracle
#

I never read jjk but my friend has spoiled it all to me regardless lmao

sleek halo
#

Something I like

#

Draedon has a genuine interest in magic

#

he isn’t like the whole “ew magic, how about science” schtick

fierce pagoda
#

Dreadon can never use magic

#

he doesnt have bones

cosmic minnow
#

Considering it’s stated she can’t control her magic fully it would likely just lash out like crazy

#

Like pure curse energy

sleek halo
#

especially complex stuff

cosmic minnow
#

Cuz magic doesn’t exactly go according to science, likely that why

#

There’s a reason it’s „magic“

split mortar
untold oracle
#

It’s like whole another power system

fierce pagoda
untold oracle
#

Doesn’t calamity have 2 of them

fierce pagoda
#

what powersystem does exo crystals fall into

split mortar
#

Maybe three with primordial light

split mortar
untold oracle
#

Yeah but no one dares to thread on that

fierce pagoda
#

isnt primorgial light magic too

sleek halo
# sleek halo especially complex stuff

“Between these excursions, however, he attempted to act as a guardian and teach the young Witch how to control her magic. These sessions were the most perplexing and simultaneously the most fascinating portions to observe.”

split mortar
#

Though I wouldn’t be surprised sea prisms are considered “magic” and draedon sciences beyond beleif into them

untold oracle
#

I like to headcanon that there’s like a secluded community of PL monks that can use it to a reasonable degree

#

Oh wait

fierce pagoda
#

air bender type shit

split mortar
#

Ah, empress of light

untold oracle
#

That would be xeroc

split mortar
#

Ye

untold oracle
#

I like to think that xeroc always was able to use a little bit of PL

split mortar
#

Same

#

He likely was attuned to zeratros so I can see it

sleek halo
#

It was my first thought seeing his pre ascension design

untold oracle
#

He has that sigil

sleek halo
#

Yeah

fierce pagoda
#

Maybe consuming the auric soul of a dragon you are attuned to is the key to a perfect ascension

sleek halo
#

Though I think he’d be the only person alive who could wield it

#

Other than Zeratros at the time

untold oracle
sleek halo
#

maybe EoL depending on her age

split mortar
cosmic minnow
fierce pagoda
untold oracle
#

I imagine that dragon of life and Zera were willing to give their souls

#

terminal cancer

fierce pagoda
untold oracle
split mortar
#

Terminus has close connections to xeroc and silva

fierce pagoda
#

what crazy trust you must have to willingly give up your entire existence and soul so that someone else can become a god

split mortar
#

The people who have perfect ascended

#

Xeroc cause it’s his fucking artifact

untold oracle
split mortar
#

And silva cause she has blessed jared who holds it away from any primordial light

sleek halo
#

not to mention

#

Where he threw it

fierce pagoda

fierce pagoda
#

WHAT!?

#

not cool Yharon

untold oracle
#

It’s not Yharon

#

It was physically impossible somehow

split mortar
# fierce pagoda WHAT!?

Yeah it’s said zeratros power was going to be gone forever

So moonlord had something that could fuck up their rebirth cycle

fierce pagoda
#

what about the draon of life then

split mortar
#

We don’t know

fierce pagoda
#

yharon couldn't revie them too?

frank dune
#

hello everyon

fierce pagoda
#

How ironic that the dragon of rebirth couldn't revive the dragon of life

dusk laurel
#

dragon of fovos

untold oracle
dusk laurel
split mortar
#

We don’t know when silva ascended

#

Since there’s a whole 700+ years

fierce pagoda
untold oracle
#

I assume it was during grey period

sleek halo
#

in br

split mortar
#

And yharon could be getting spawn killed for all we know by rocks while in a egg in the aerie

fierce pagoda
#

but regardless Yharon is immortal, they'd just have to wait for it to become a bit more peaceful so that Yharon could work his magic

untold oracle
split mortar
#

Yeah but while true

What if a malicious person comes and ascends using the dragon while it’s dead?

fierce pagoda
#

right, the soul consuming part...

mighty zenith
#

xeroc came up with the ritual himself according to devs, so someone else couldve easily done the same

split mortar
#

And yharon only became available 700+ years later which is plenty of time for unwanted ascensions anyway

fierce pagoda
#

damn thats true too

split mortar
sleek halo
#

to get the auric souls originally

mighty zenith
#

i always assumed the dragons used the terminus on the world soul ya

sleek halo
#

Just like necromancy based off rebirth

fierce pagoda
#

the dragons sacrificed themselves to their closest friends in order for their soul not to be used maliciously, and so that their friend may use that power for good

mighty zenith
#

my theory is that it was yharon

fierce pagoda
#

very noble

mighty zenith
#

cause he's a bitch

sleek halo
mighty zenith
#

the ritual on the world soul, to split it

sleek halo
#

I personally don’t think they could’ve split it

fierce pagoda
#

but it was fragmented

#

who fragmented it

sleek halo
#

I personally think something else caused it

fierce pagoda
#

erosion

sleek halo
#

Idk what

mighty zenith
#

coulda been noxus

split mortar
untold oracle
#

That’s what I think

#

Not confirmed tho remember

split mortar
indigo glade
#

What if the World Soul fragmenting was so powerful it distorted a certain part of the world?

fierce pagoda
#

what was the other thing alongside erosion?

split mortar
#

Corrosion?

#

Deposition?

fierce pagoda
#

yeah thats waht it was thank you

#

corrosion

sleek halo
#

Fellas

#

something weird

#

Why is it that every elemental

#

is on this singular continent

#

4 of them obviously represent earth fire water and air

#

and then silva being silva

fierce pagoda
#

they are just avarats

#

so other avatars may be on other contintets

sleek halo
#

Maybe

split mortar
indigo glade
#

Only really Anahita and Brimstone Elemental live in the player continent.

fierce pagoda
#

or maybe our continent is just oh so special and unique

untold oracle
sleek halo
indigo glade
#

Sand Elemental and Cloud Elemental are fragmented, and Silva's original home is currently unknown.

fierce pagoda
#

happening just here

I mean

#

One other question I have

#

why is brimmy asleep in the first place

untold oracle
#

Eepy

mighty zenith
#

beauty sleep

fierce pagoda
#

maybe industrialization and pollution fucked with her

untold oracle
#

Beauty sleep interrupted

indigo glade
untold oracle
#

Kill azafure

split mortar
#

She was dormant before azafure iirc

mighty zenith
#

god forbid a woman does anything

And azafure built up around her

Because

hello everyone

Hello Mario

dusk laurel
#

have we gotten new lore teasers

#

or am i going hungry

split mortar
#

Don’t think so

#

Other than me realising like three minutes ago our character knows what Cthulhu means and uses it correctly for two bosses

dusk laurel
split mortar
#

And Cthulhu is a dragon language word iirc

dusk laurel
#

it is

split mortar
#

Ok so we suck at naming unless it’s related to speaking draconic

dusk laurel
#

maybe dragon words are like latin in europe

#

fancy

split mortar
#

Maybe?

dusk laurel
#

higher prestige

split mortar
#

No way eoc deserves prestige

dusk laurel
#

the words are

#

not the boss

#

it's like saying aqueduct instead of water pipe

split mortar
#

Nah it’s def always canon our character is a dragon nerd like yharim clueless

dusk laurel
#

i can't wait for all of the item descriptions in sso

#

especially the former legendary items

Can’t wait to forget about it five seconds after reading then get corrected here when I commit dumb

dusk laurel

just read the bestiary

there is so much stuff boohoo

frogfish bestiary on its way to talk about something that is never elaborated on ever again

dusk laurel
#

it's peak

cloud ibex
#

What is the frogfish bestiary

mighty zenith
#

mentions an empire in the ocean which is never mentioned ever again

pliant ruin
#

scoria duke empire

indigo glade
#

"Well-camouflaged and prepared to strike at any moment, Frogfish show that the ocean is rarely as serene as it seems. There are few places where one can find true peace here in the heart of what once was an empire unrivaled."

#

Only spawns in the Ocean.

frank dune
#

Hello

dusk laurel
split mortar
#

Nah there was a ocean version of azafure before auric dragons and it got nuked by anahita

Source? Trust me clueless

manic coral
#

Or maybe just the fact that the continent you're on was the heart of Yharim's empire

#

Like I don't get how that's unclear but clearly that needs to be more clear somewhere

#

Stuff like this is why I'm glad I interact with the community alot

split mortar
#

Can’t tell if you’re referring to me or someone else

#

Cause I waa making a joke

manic coral
#

There are implications and information that feels obvious to all of us writers that maybe aren't to others

split mortar
#

But I did also miss that yharim would nuke them most likely so still

Fair

manic coral
#

I know just still I've seen actual confusion before about it

pliant ruin
#

"There are few places where one can find true peace here in the heart of what once was an empire unrivaled; Well-camouflaged and prepared to strike at any moment, Frogfish show that even the ocean is rarely as serene as it seems."

#

Perhaps this would make it more clear?

#

That way it dosen't seem like the first line is reffering to the ocean

fair pelican
#

Not necessarily calamity related but is there a server for talking about terraria mods in general?

pliant ruin
#

idk

split mortar
#

I think there is a tmod loader discord

pliant ruin
#

you could probably join the mods individual servers

#

or that yeah

#

i forgot there was a tmod discord

#

Anyone wanna throw up some theories on World Soul

devout grotto
#

#

What's that :O

hoary berry
#

from yharon's bestiary:

Each dragon once wielded nigh limitless power over their domain, a fundamental power drawn directly from the world's fragmented soul.

#

this is literally everything we have on the world soul iirc

#

it uh
existed

#

i think i might have some ideas somewhere in the recesses of a doc

#

but i also might have deleted them due to not being satisfied with them

indigo glade
#

It is fragmented and Auric Souls use it as their power source.

#

That is literally all we know.

deft vessel
#

In my fanfic Draedon is gonna send a supply drop to the Terrarian

split mortar
#

In not confirmed territory

Rebecca views it as justified that attuning to that equals the fight with xeroc for a character with adaptation and evolution as their god domain so yeah it strong very likely

sleek halo
#

Fellas

#

I have been trying to come up with a reason for why the world soul would have rebirth as part of it

#

and i cannot

And why would it have the sun as part of it aswell

Hello goose

#

My midterm’s tomorrow and I hate myself

hoary berry
#

i don't have an actual exam until january

#

it's awesome

split mortar
#

Considering the fact yharon became a pheonix maybe there was already some rebirth animals

#

And yharon can do it endlessly and rebirth others

spring helm
#

Is he actually a phoenix or is that a title

indigo glade
#

Since the World Soul is made up of "fundamental power", does that mean things rebirthing is common somewhere?

spring helm
#

Jellyfish

split mortar
#

I thought the world soul had things related to the world

spring helm
#

Powers fundamental to the world perhaps

split mortar
#

So cosmic forces would like be not existent in the soul

Interesting thing to me is that she can seemingly infuse objects/things with power

Gods can bless people

#

Why can’t they bless objects

sleek halo
#

True

but she doesn’t seem to be the one

transferring it

#

“Those most devout to Her travel the world, being planted into societies and acting as spies and assassins. Among their duties is constructing shrines in Her honor infused with Her divine power, that She might bless pagans blinded by darkness with visions of Her new age of light.”

indigo glade

Do note that said shrines attempt to kill the player.

One idea I have now

#

for why she’s stronger in night

indigo glade
#

Hm?

sleek halo
#

She wants to bring a new age of light

#

Primordial Light overshines that for now

So she really hasn’t paid her xeroc tax

But when it’s night there is nothing to outshine her light

How old are the gods approximately?

spring helm
#

Providence ascended like 700 years ago

split mortar
#

Or one of the other writers

spring helm
#

Quite old

split mortar
#

From ascension to now

untold oracle
#

Could it be possible that some dragons survived long enough that they are just 200ish years old?

frozen zodiac
#

ah yes i love discord not accepting an image upload

#

chat how have we all been looking at this and thinking its blue when its clearly terraria cyan

untold oracle
#

I assume almost all gods are 700–800 years old

split mortar
#

Yeah, all we know is by yharons birth they were the only one

untold oracle
#

When will god of sludge be canonized

spring helm
#

Old(ish) Stip statement

#

Okay I say old it was like 4 months ago

#

Didn’t even wait 10 years after Xeroc

untold oracle
#

Another thing

#

What is the calamity calendar based on?

spring helm
#

Years since Azafure was founded

untold oracle
#

Ok

#

Makes sense

spring helm
#

We like older women

untold oracle
#

Azafure was the first civilization right? Like in heartlands at least

frozen zodiac

who's we

Okay

Some people like older women

#

Sometims I wonder if it's possible to make Night Provi just be part of the normal fight, like

#

The last 20% are that

#

(Minus RDR)

untold oracle
#

Would make sense kinda

#

Like the fight gets more intense she gets hotter

mighty zenith
#

i think you'd have to nerf her a lil

spare pier
#

That quite simply solves the problem with Night Provi, that

#

Yes

languid badge
split mortar
#

Providence pays her xeroc tax mid fight

spare pier
#

Night Provi is Providence saying "fuck you" and going full ballistic

viral juniper
#

NO

frozen zodiac
spare pier
#

I forgot about the Guardians ngl hdflr

mighty zenith
languid badge
split mortar
#

I thought they were 50

mighty zenith
#

guardians are inconsequential enough that

spare pier
#

In my personal opinion

mighty zenith
#

yeah they dont need to be that late

spare pier
#

Provi after you kill the Guardians just enters Night Mode

Still, this is something I'm questioning if I even should make because ultimately Providence is a Boss that is already fucking phenomenal

sleek halo
untold oracle
#

Do we like providence…..

frozen zodiac
#

this kills the summoner community unless you remember to target with right click

spring helm
#

My strategy against providence was “hide until my friends killed her”

untold oracle
#

The summoner

split mortar
#

^

sleek halo
#

my theory can still live

split mortar
spare pier
#

Idk, like this is still something I want to suggest but I'm thinking if this would actually improve the fight

split mortar
#

If you don’t want too much changed with the actual fight

untold oracle
frozen zodiac
#

honestly i cant imagine playing summoner without support items like whips and classless weapons

spare pier
#

My problem with any explanation for Night Provi being an actual handicap to her is simple

sleek halo
#

I just wanted to tie in her night form into her whole religious thingy

untold oracle
#

I like your theory tho…

spare pier
#

In the story, she comes to fight you

#

Why the fuck wouldn't she wait for night if during the day she is actively weaker?

languid badge
split mortar
#

Blind rage from her bffs being near dead?

sleek halo
#

We did just beat the guardians

#

not kill them but

#

injured definitely

spare pier
#

She is angry at you, yeah, but there's a difference between "being angry" and "being stupid"

sleek halo
#

I mean also tbf

visual kiln
#

haiii users

spare pier
#

And I think that Providence wouldn ever commit this blunder against you

sleek halo
#

I doubt she thought

visual kiln
#

hruuuu

sleek halo
#

You could beat her

split mortar
#

We beat moonlord

spare pier
untold oracle

#

I'm sorry, but if there is one thing Providence is absolutely mindful of

#

Is her power

frozen zodiac
#

i think the main problem with trying to fit night time provi into the lore is that to my understanding it was just supposed to be a parallel to the empress of light enraging during daytime

spare pier
#

She does NOT underestimate her opponents

split mortar
#

She survived the crusade for a reason

#

Oh

spare pier
#

If she knew she'd be beaten, she would've ran

#

You don't let that happen

sleek halo
#

That

kinda goes against

untold oracle
#

Should provi’s death animation be more dramatic

sleek halo
#

the whole your

Slime god refrerance?!

#

your thing

#

does it not

spare pier
#

Why? You're just employing a specific fight strategy

visual kiln
#

it’s reb’s interpretation

spare pier
#

Either way, yeah this is what I think

#

I don't think Providence is arrogant enough to stay in a fight where victory is a coinflip

sleek halo
#

I mean one way is just

languid badge
# languid badge thinking about it more I think I prefer night provi as an optional challenge I t...

in fact yeah
nprovs pattern is kinda... absurd for someone who isnt experienced with the fight already
like, she will litterally do crystal rain -> stars -> laser -> spears
all back to back
and thats just a normal part of provs attack pattern
and it works for nprov bc its designed to be specifically a challenge
but in the context of normal prov
this is still an early postml boss we're talking about

sleek halo
#

too injured before realizing

spring helm
spare pier
#

My point is entirely that Providence doesn't lose out of arrogance

split mortar
spare pier
#

She loses because you beat her

#

.

split mortar
#

Yeah providence is smart

untold oracle
#

Reb does provi’s crystal hold any significance anymore

spare pier
#

Wdym?

sleek halo
spare pier
#

The crystal inside her body?

untold oracle
#

Like before it was provi

untold oracle
spare pier
#

It's her heart

untold oracle
#

Is it just deco now

spare pier
#

Simple

untold oracle
spring helm
#

I can break her heart that’s crazy

untold oracle
#

Noted

split mortar
#

So not a core of her power
But still needed to live

spare pier
#

"""Heart"""

#

It's the equivalento of a heart for her

split mortar
spring helm
#

So like
Does she die if you rip it out

deft vessel
#

So we just display her heart at some random area

sleek halo
#

I’m ngl Night Provi thinking about it

#

is fucked no matter what

split mortar
sleek halo
#

if she’s able to do it anytime, then you should be facing that the entire time

#

from the start

spring helm
languid badge
#

I think nprov is best as strictly a gameplay thing and not necessarily a lore thing
but I suppose this is lore discussion

spring helm
#

Why did it autocorrect that

#

Romance typo

frank dune

Hello everyone

True

But not for her

Like the Kaioken, in a way

Damn she really hit you with the “TIMES TWENTY!!!!!” at the very end

frozen zodiac

Yharim with a hook blade

Basically, it's her trump card. At night she is just pissed enough to outright gamble her life solely to kill you

languid badge

spare pier
#

Well, technically

sleek halo
#

Well my theory of it being tied to her whole religious thingy is dead

spare pier
#

Night Provi was added before TMod was ported to 1.4

split mortar
languid badge
#

it predates tmod 1.4

sleek halo
spare pier
#

But 1.4 already existed by the time Night Provi was conceived

spring helm
#

I just headcanon that the fight happened as a result of a philosophical argument that violently devolved; and Providence refused to run away because it meant rejecting her own ideology or something.

sleek halo
#

cause it gives more stuff to her whole bring a new age of light to those blinded by darkness thing

spring helm
#

Dev statements vs my delusions

sleek halo
#

real af

#

both technically just as equally non canon…

spare pier
#

Basically HDfailure

languid badge
#

what the fuck night provi was rust and dust

#

I thought it was way later wtf

spring helm
#

I reject your reality Rebecca, it’s not in the game yet so it can’t be true!

sleek halo

I thought night prov was earlier then 1.4hdflr

languid badge
split mortar
#

I thought she was before rust and dusthdflr

visual kiln
#

entirely unrelated but I wanna make a 3d worm boss some day

sleek halo
#

She knows of Xeroc, her being stronger in the night because no light now outshines her own, she literally takes away the darkness

wait this is lore discussion

No sorry you're hallucinating

I knew nprov wasnt arround when I first started playing
I figured it was like sometime between r&d and draedon

I want Daedalus to come back

but I suppose there was like 3 small patches between those

so yknow

split mortar
visual kiln
#

Nuh that’s still 2d

split mortar
deft vessel
#

Aequus

visual kiln
#

it’s bound to the 2d plane and is still made using sprites

#

it can’t just turn around and face towards or away from the camera

split mortar
#

Oh ok

hoary berry
#

make eater of world be able to leave my screen and eat the world

visual kiln
#

I meant something that can seamlessly go into the bg and fg and face the camera and stuff

#

not bound to the 2d terraria plane

fierce pagoda
#

Moonlord jumps towards the screen and outside of it to punch me in the face

pliant ruin
#

(idk i dont code im small brain

split mortar
#

That may require that one mod that makes the game look 3D so it can go in the back ground and not bug walls and stuff

visual kiln
#

yes

deft vessel
#

When is the court update where we can take EoW to court for fraud

visual kiln
fierce pagoda
split mortar
#

Doesn’t nameless litteraly go in the back ground

pliant ruin
#

he doies but its not actual 3d i dont think?

split mortar
visual kiln
#

just gotta use a 3d model and pixelation shader to make the 3d model look like a sprite

pliant ruin
#

idk

split mortar
pliant ruin
#

ok but the most importatj question

#

can you run doom in terraria

visual kiln
#

terraria already has stuff that allows for 3d models to exist

visual kiln
pliant ruin
#

of course

deft vessel
#

That monstrous worm was no exception.
That measly thing, devouring a planet? Ridiculous. However, ridicule spreads quickly with even an ounce of truth behind it.
One will not need to search long for examples. We are all surrounded by rampant superstition and assumption.
I myself have been subjected to a litany of baseless boasts and accusations in my time.

I'm stuff

just the boilerplate necessary to use 3d models

oh ok

render them and import them into the game

drawin drawin

deft vessel

#

just put a shader on it that makes it look like it’s spritework and u have like 3d creature in terraria

spring helm

That looks awesome

Also something Yharim would gaslight himself into believing

pliant ruin
#

3d devourer of gods

#

devours all the gods

visual kiln
#

I actually want this to be a dog rework lmao

spring helm
#

There’s a picture book?

broken abyss
#

fanfiction

visual kiln
#

I thought ab how cool it’d be if dog were like otherworldly and weird

spring helm
#

Sick

pliant ruin
#

too bad!!! dog will now be generic worm boss with laser spam <3

#

also probes

#

it will have probes

fierce pagoda
#

Can gods be attuned to a dragon hypothetically

visual kiln
#

also would be cool if instead of the normal dog portals

pliant ruin
#

theyll be called cosmic spawns

visual kiln
#

https://youtu.be/2nARewuPWTI?si=bLd7d3aLv9_t0Csa the 3d dog had actual wormhole type things

A little wormhole i found hovering in the lab. You can barely poke the camera through, but there seems to be some sort of mountainous area on the other side.

Seriously, it's rendered with a custom raytracer, loosely based on real physics.
Spatial distortion should be relatively correct (no pun intended), but illumination of the scene is certain...

hell yeah

#

also is there any lore surrounding auric ore?

#

like thats written in game

fierce pagoda
#

like does any in game character mention auric ore

#

i know dreadon does i think

split mortar
#

Nothing official other then you need to be a auric dragon or attuned to one to touch it

#

IIRC

#

Which is from amidias of all guys

spring helm
#

I think the gods banned anyone from working with it too

fierce pagoda
#

Alright, i vaguely remember that auric was banned too?

#

or something

spring helm
#

But I might be remembering some headcanon

split mortar
#

Nah that’s not headcanon

visual kiln
split mortar
#

Gods banned use of it

#

But

visual kiln
#

u can go through it tho

spring helm
split mortar
#

No one could but yharim and yharon

#

For the most part

fierce pagoda
#

why did they ban it

#

were they afraid

visual kiln
#

I imagine it’d feel rlly weird

spring helm
#

Now that I think about it

split mortar
#

And the known universe

spring helm
#

Why did auric ore only appear after Yharon died

visual kiln
#

actually if u slapped it it might take a hole out of ur hand lmao

Didn’t like thousands of auric dragons get consumed over the 700 years

What

fierce pagoda
#

auric ore is still mysterious to me, what is it? where did it come from? how can it detect worthiness?

spring helm
fierce pagoda
#

hope we get answers, maybe when dragon aerie update is added

split mortar
fierce pagoda
#

so aerilite has ties to the world evil?

split mortar
#

It has ties to dragons

pliant ruin
fierce pagoda
#

woah its steve

deft vessel
spring helm
#

So
Auric ore only showed up in the continent after Yharon died

Yharim got his hands on a suit of auric armour like a hundred years ago

There must have been auric ore back in the day too then. Which means somebody (or a group of people) got all the ore and hid it or something.

#

How did they even do that

split mortar
#

Providence is how clueless

fierce pagoda
#

that reminds me of Golden kamuy

deft vessel
#

Secret dragon

fierce pagoda
#

or one piece

#

someone hid all the auric ore

#

now someone has to find it

devout grotto
#

Tbh I'll just do some canon divergence in my stories when it comes to the progression ores (except Aerialite maybe)

spring helm
#

“You want my auric? You can have it. I left all the auric ore in one place, now you just have to find it!”

fierce pagoda
#

cryogenic ore is easy ot explain, permafrost hid it with his magic, and undid that magic when we saved him

perennial may be a bit harder to explain

ughh you just reminded me i have to rewrite my auric headcanon

Uelibloom is getting turned into profaned pre so that makes sense that it only appears after providence dies

Not like alien monstrosities that are capable of destroying the most powerful lifeform on Terraria exist.

spring helm
deft vessel
#

Use your delusion

hoary berry
#

it can live but it's getting relegated to the 'relic of the past' section

cosmolite is availbile in the distortion so no need to explain that either

devout grotto
#

Mainly just the vanilla ores and Scoria

spring helm
#

Wait is the Silva stuff from an ore or like, planty mush

#

I don’t remember

fierce pagoda
#

hallowed ore isa bit weird tho

devout grotto

Maybe Perennial too

#

Yeah

why does it appear after mechs

and all the other hardmode ore too for that matter

Also there's weapons and such made from those ores
