What is this from?
Also, I wonder what Draedon would think about a player that was a robot, one he didn't make
Inquiry: Exo Mechanical Trio. The end of the first paragraph.
Mood whiplash
I see
I wonder if the exo mechs are sentient. I doubt it, but on the other hand, exo stuff is made from the same stuff as Draedon's "brain"
It is alive in the same way Draedon is alive.
It thinks.
I wonder what was powering Draedon before he obtained Exo Prisms.
Snicker bar
Simple, big ass generator
ah thats what the other part of exo technology was, first part, coding based on the brain so that its super fast at calculating and stuff, and second part, infinite energy from exo prisms
and i guess the black plating that the exomechs use
dunno what that is made of tho, maybe cosmolite
It’s a cosmolite alloy
I can't be sure about that. Anything that thinks is alive in the same way that we are, in my opinion. So Draedon is alive.
or are the exo prisms the only hardware part
Exo plating ha that sounds cool
so you think that when exo armor is getting added, it will be made of exo prisms and cosmolite alloy?
do the exoprisms contain any exo tech brain coding? or do they only containt a tracking thing dreadon installed in them
Prob not alloy in crafting due to the fact that would be item bloat
Prob just tracking things, that’s all we are told about by draedon
yeah, but you think that at least cosmolite would appear in the recipe?
Probably
man just using exo tech to power things up sounds so cool, REALLY whis we could have upgraded our own auric armor with exo tech like Yharim but i don think thats happening
only regular Exo armor for us
damn you Yharim! why do you get to have the cool Exo Auric Armor!!!
we will have demonshade armor atleast which has Scal power
Because draedon got to give it directly unlike us who has tor craft
that armor Yharim doesnt have access to
True
we can make exo auric plating blocks though, but they are only decoration
Oh nice
Demonshade will probably get nerfed when it becomes scal armour since it would otherwise beat the others out of the water in usefulness
right, were gonna have three equal armor sets, Exo armor, Auric armor and Demonshade armor
but are all three going to be canonically weaker than Yharims armor?
It is getting reworked.
Oh so no rage thing anymore?
Likely
Our auric is worse
So if the others are equal then they’re worse
our auric is only lacking rejection part, but i guess thats a big enough nerf to make ours inferiour. Literally no one can even touch Yharim without being harmed
Sticker caloro
Loring interrupted with a caloro flashbang
Dumbo flashbang
wonder what it tastes
Mock attuned auric is like a nuclear bomb without the radiation
Still strong but it lacks that certain “flair” that’s got everyone spooked
If you post this one more time, I am going to delete dumbo octopus from everyone's memories.
Tbh most of the flair is also the fact a decently big bomb levels a city
woah you can do that
Yes.
Fuck you
Why do we have Amidias of all people dropping lore bombshells about auric and soul attunement
Amidias coming in clutch for all lorers around the world
Simple
He close as fuck to two seemingly quite intelligent gods
did anyone else ever mock attune auric before us
why else would Amidias know about it
or was it just speculation that he deemed true
There’s probably some less intensely strong spells that do the same as auric
And so loop holes from those spells would work on auric
Just that auric is a pain to loop around
oh so other spells that use a worthyness mechanich, and if you can get around those spells, you can get around auric
but its easier said than done
type shit
Doubt it
It’s what I think is the case
Yk i think i should send the monstrosity that i created
Most likely, yes.
Anyways.
whar
.
🤩
I hate
I find it interesting that some people, instead of becoming Gods, decided to use Auric Souls to force attunement on Auric Ore to work on it.
YOU’RE THE CREATOR OF THE IMAGE?
can gods use auric ore? like arent they mock attuned all the time? or does the soul need to be put into the auric specifically
Yeah lmao
I hope this gets explored one day, since it is interesting.
Look
I thinkkk perfect gods can
What an amazing bit of channel history
alright im looking
If they could use it, why deem it heretical? Why would you need to put the soul in the ore?
When they ascend they remove the auric trait of the soul
It’s now seperate and so they get rejected
what is an auric trait
but its a theory
As in just they lose the fact it’s auric
It’s no longer considered auric
one thing is that auric is know about before us, but when we play its hidden until Yharon is dead, so was auric sealed sometime ago before we came along
or can it jsut be chalked up to being gameplay
weird why does it lost the fact that its auric, isnt soul a soul
It isn't "just for gameplay" unless it directly contradicts lore, which Auric Ore appearing after Yharon's death does not.
so it was hidden at some point
God souls are different to auric souls and normal souls
I like to believe that it was all just mined up, and Yharon's defeat somehow brought more into the world.
Auric ore is the power the dragon held in its current life imbued into the rocks of the world
does auric reject the rocks surrounding it underground
Wouldn’t be surprised, it rejects through thick armour
so like do you think auric cases tremors and earthquakes underground
No.
like its shaking everywhere around it
It’s probably not as violently strong as when another living being touches it
how come the auric ore doesnt reject us when its in our inventory
the other theory (i forgot to mention lol) is that gods that were attuned to the dragon whose auric soul they consumed can use auric
Simple
Refer to this image
How come the Terrarian can hold over twenty thousand gold thrones?
gameplay haha
Don't question how game inventories work, they are always confusing.
I bow to your power
Deep pockets
Zamn
I used to be lore discussion regular
Good times
simply put a layer of raw auric above the non attuned auric
Where does The Knight in Hollow Knight keep all those keys, passes and Geo?
Up his-
Uhhh
Auric rejection
No.
1233popcorn banned for using wrong pronouns

im sorry i dont write the rules
Bannable offense.
popcorn this is inexcusable
Auric cant reject if youre wearing non attuned auric armor
Sicc the bird on popcorn1233
no actually, someone said a few days ago that auric does in fact appear when yharon dies
I love it when im in the exo chair and touch auric ore, just zapped a million times a second cuz it cant knock me back
Read the text right after
Their next message was literally saying how it also comes back after Yharon's defeat.
oh
oops
yes, but I mean that there was auric before, it was used up, then new auric appeared when yharon died
You aren't escaping the Calamity Player allegations.
They are known for having no eyes
please kill me before taking my eyes
No
never want to be blind
No Eyes... Like the Hollow Knight boss...
Immediately looked it up but no good gifs
What i am saying, is, skibidi fortnite skibidi skibidi fortnite
I am politely telling you to shut the fuck up.
^
skibidi calamity
☹️
im gonna make that song now
I am going to send you to Heaven.
Please refrain from rotted activity
what the hell? please? Heaven sounds amazing!
You'd be wrong.
send the bombs, eels, everything we can conjure
what, have you been there?
Yes.
bro is speaking from experience
seeker is ancient
To heaven you go
primordial being
"Primordial" is technically inaccurate, since my existence predates this universe's existence.
oldhead
Primordial indicates first aswell
If you’re before the universe then you are first
why do you dwell in our human wastes?
especially this server
why did you arrive here
Nvm I wrong
Why the fuck not
A mortal cannot understand concepts beyond them, like how a one dimension being simply cannot fathom a third dimensional being.
true
sure grandpa, lets get you to bed
but i am no longer 1 dimensional
Ok
Not really I just executed cal plush
I need no such thing as rest.
let's lore
I recommend you make a gallows, then.
draedon said he planned to start mining operations on the moon
Would that be allowed
yeah thats fine, i dont thinkg thats a joke about suicide
or something along those lines
You couid even say it is a...
witch trial.
🤯
Your dementia is showing
I don't have dementia.
Don’t know moons age
I cannot have a fault of the human brain, because I do not have one.
Yharon.
Death is one of the first three given auric souls
wher is that stated
Statement
We do not have the birth dates of Moon Lord or Noxus, so the only option is Yharon.
is that top secret patreon lore stuff
Yharon may be fourth place we don’t know
Fair
If it was top secret then surely the very-much non-Patrons here wouldn't know
If it was Patreon lore, someone would have gotten executed.
(It was stated somewhere here, too lazy to find the message)
hey somethings could get leaked
never
(Funny you should say this; I just started playing a song called "Executioner")
I’m split between primordial wyrm or Yharon
Maybe the elementals actually
brimmy
Primordial Wyrm is an offshoot, and offshoots appeared in the Draconic Era.
heat is one of the oldest things in the universe
jared missed getting a auric soul
And the Auric Dragons were Pre-Historic.
So it’s younger then them all
Huh
We don't know when the Elementals started existing.
That’s crazy they had such a huge head start and some wyrm in the abyss surpassed them
Nah jared is barely behind zeratros
True, we don't have all of the info about their existence
ok so are we gonna settle on Yharon
Yeah
Okay maybe not all of them but most
jared is also above second place auric dragon
Wait till the full lore is out, and we learn that the real villain all along was Yharon
im calling it
So all but 1
He did tell yharim a biased version of history and god ascension stuff
i can't believe the real villain wasn't even the last guy we fight
I can't remember where, but I'm pretty sure we got info about the elementals being around as old as the auric dragons
I wonder if there's a material that acts like auric but for attunement with elementals. Maybe one for each elemental?
Maybe demonshade is the one for brimstone elemental?
Heart of the elements
The elemental accessories
The real villain was the friends we made along the way
That's different I think.
Those aren't, like, materials.
They're a piece of the elemental's power, taken from them and made into a new creature
Like brimstone material
Though I guess brimstone material is literally the thing I described, but there's no attunement involved. Maybe there can be another, stronger one?
hypothetically, if we took the Ark of the Cosmos' tooltip literally, would the rip in spacetime bypass Calamitas' shield?
Just ping him
@wheat walrus ^
omnicide
didn't a whole debate over some item tooltips being canon happen
and the tooltips were like "This thing can tear the sun in half" or some other unlikely things
Yeah obviously some of the stuff (a lot actually) isn’t canon
I was just asking what if
Its like law’s sword in one piece
He can stab through magic shields
So i dont see why not
The shield is presumably brimstone magic (idk)
It burns your sord or something
Auric plantera when btw 🙏🙏🙏
Imagine if we got a ravager rework and it's another plantera clone
would be so.......calamitous
Fuck nawr
If that happens then auric plantera is guaranteed NOT to happen
I don't know what auric plantera is
Cuz there would be too many planteras
Basically remember how the lore states that plantera had like souls for fertilizer
But it made me think of how there's a plantera for like 1 and a half of each of the armor sets that go in to auric armor
Plantera: uelibloom and/or Silva
Poltergast: bloodflare
Ah
Imagine if you did that and fed it yharons soul fragments
I've been preaching this for a while now I'm making it happen one way or another
Auric plantera (silva)
No
Silva stinky
I love uelibloom fr
Sure hope nothing horrible happens to it
tried to send the image but my data is not dataing
i tried to draw yharim and he looks like a catboy
i love catboys
first thing I saw was like a cat reading a book
i see it
Wait why would they 
would be funny
True
just something incredibly minor but also surpising enough to halt a conversation
"Terrarian, as a I was saying we need to get moving already. There's not much time left before the goblins arrive and while I know you can handle them I doubt...
Why is your hand so soft?"
Moonlord has the softest hands
You'd expect someone who handles a sword like 7 times their size to have hands built like steel but nah, baby hands
needs to be since he's got eyes there
😭
Man I kinda wanna draw some portraits for the Terrarian but I don't have time rn 
man picking anything up must be an absolute pain
Hello lore
Hello cat surrounded by a blue and white shield that protects them from the harshness of the outside world
Imagine catching
kibby hand
oh god please no
hellolore goblins
Hello gabro
Tooltip Info:
"Pressing Right Click while holding UP with empowered charges will provoke a Big Rip in spacetime and use all charges"
"If more than 5 charges were used, you can dash across the rip by holding UP"
"The physical culmination of your journey, capable of rending gods asunder"
Ark of The Elements Info:
"A heavenly pair of blades infused with the essence of Terraria, powerful enough to cut through the fabric of reality"
Galaxia Info:
"Freed from earthly shackles and coursing with cosmic power"
Wiki.gg Info:
"The Big Rip attack is not only based on the scissor-like nature of the Ark of the Ancients, but also on a hypothetical model of the end of the universe also named the Big Rip, in which spacetime itself would get torn apart by the accelerating expansion of the universe."
Wikipedia Info (Big Rip):
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Big_Rip
It's clear that the Big Rip here doesn't cause an actual universe-wide Big Rip, but it does still cause a rip through space, time and reality as a whole. That, based on there being time (4th dimension), in the equation, as well as being capable of cutting through the distance between targets, kinda like Za Hando from JJBA, and how the Galaxia is supposedly "freed from earthly shackles", I say it has a 4D Attack Potency, only with that specific attack though, one that is meant to bypass durability
the best way I can think of to describe AOTC's Big Rip attack is that it's kinda like Ryomen Sukuna's (JJK, manga spoilers)) ||World-Cutting Slash, an attack that ignores durability and even ignores Gojo's infinity due to it attacking not Gojo himself but the space where Gojo resides, think of that but not on a mere spatial scale, but unlike Sukuna's WCS, AOTC's Rip is also going through time||
It's definitely an odd one, but I think of it as that for now, just ignoring durability on a 4D/time scale, while also being able to go/cut through a limited amount of space and time based on the 5-charges big rip doing that
so basically, it should be a 4D/Universe Level+ attack, in atp/dura negation, realistically it should be able to go through SCal's Shield and any other defense of hers unless she too is able to do something of that scale or higher in any way, shape or form
This is actually a perfect example of how power scaling is fucking stupid and wrong. A true understanding of physics would dictate that no, this is actually no different from a really powerful but ordinary object in this same number of dimensions that we have, or any arbitrary amount more or less. Would you like me to explain why?
powerscaling is stupid when you use it to decide how good a piece of media is

other than that its pretty harmless i think
Yes, but on top of that it is also just factually incorrect
idk I go by powerscaling rules, I know they're flawed but not like I can do much about it right now, would be quite impossible for me to remake the entire system from the ground up and having all the tiny little powerscalers follow it like that
im kidding omni dont hit me
Power scaling rules are logically incorrect and utter bullshit
I know that powerscaling tries to do things more like fiction does things, rather than real life, while things from real life are taken, because so does fiction, the way the entire thing is structured is still more based around what fiction does
also can you not get mad over this vro, it's unnecessary
Black holes do the same thing as the big rip, but "inward" instead of "outward". They create regions of spacetime that are cut off from the rest of the universe, from the point they are created to the infinite future. A black hole is an ordinary object, made of matter, and following all the normal laws of physics, albiet at their extremes. Therefore, in order to call the ark of the cosmos whatever level this is, you must also say that every single object in our real life universe is at that level.
I'm not mad, just annoyed
once again, idk really, I just follow powerscaling rules not real life rules for this, obviously
The problem is that power scalers seem to think that their rules are objective and true and based on real physics, when they are not
so long as people aren't going around and telling that fictional powerscaling is how things work irl then ion care
I can see that
Do you ever interact with people like that?
Can you give them this example, if you do?
well I don't interact too often with people who do dimensional powerscaling, like I know some who do it at times but it's not the main thing they do
usually I just limit myself to powerscaling more grounded stuff
and so do the people I surround myself with for these cases
What does grounded mean in this context
not galaxy, universe, dimensional busting stuff
usually I go with what can be calculated using simple energy terms
rather than scaling based on dimensional coordinates n stuff
So stuff hard locked in classical physics then
cause it gets confusing and weird + people who do that tend to be mad toxic in several cases
This is good
I'll still try to do that if there's a need to from any side, but I prefer doing stuff that can be calculated in actual energy terms, it's just better imo
Oh good heavens!
I do wish for more Signus lore
What are we loring
Uhhh
Scals shield would disrupt the magic that lets space time get torn so no
That or some cal characters can just resist space time tearing which I can see since dog doesn’t open portals inside our necks
You have a tendency to seem overly aggressive sometimes which is why it looks like you’re mad I think
Power scaling doesn’t exactly interest me much either but when you jump out to call it fucking stupid and wrong and logically incorrect and utter bullshit it gives off the vibe that you’re pissed
That's a fair assessment. I think most power scaling is extremely dumb. I'm mad/annoyed about the idea of it, but I'm not mad at anyone here
I think powerscaling gets dumb once it goes into dimensionality stuff and past infinite power type strength
And even dumber with beyond space time as a concept things
That is why calamity is good with continent-level being the highest
Was it continent?
Or did someone go to moon level
Country level for now
There’s a dev statement of xeroc being able to put a big hole in the moon but eh
If anyone gets to full moon level I’d imagine it be noxus but we have no info on them
With scal burning the sea correct?
Yes
Omni calced with just normal sunlight they are country likely and continental pushing it a lot iirc
he created a recreation similar in power to Scal
who evaporated half a sea
And did that multiple times
are there any theories on what formed the abyss
i thought it said somewhere that it’s immune to tectonics
“eons of tectonic shifts have left it unaffected” or something
yea so i was curious if anyone had any ideas
Only noxus has the strength to then but the abyss has no connection to the distortion
So I don’t know what else it can be other then a geological structure but it’s resistant to their affects
maybe it’s like a crack left over from when the world soul shattered
(i have no idea what im talking about)
I think you're missing information
The abyss is directly above the brimstone elemental's home, so it is probably volcanic in nature
Especially because of the hydrothermal vents and such
It's also where anahita used to live, and where Silva has been imprisoned twice
3 of the 5 elementals have a direct connection to it
vaporize a good chunk of the planet instantly
🇮🇹
i love it, because i think we need some seriousness here
Eweeeheheb
It being Anahitas home
in the past
I imagine she kept it from changing
until Silva was thrown in and Anahita was slowly forced out
Maybe yeah
We don’t know how the elementals were in the past so I can imagine she has the potential to be strong enough to do that
you can be serious without being overly aggressive
^
one keeps people civil and on topic
the other makes ppl get defensive
perceiving something as an attack doesn’t typically lead to a good conversation
I think what we need is just a mod to reign it in every once and a while
offtopic convos are fine for a short while but it can get pretty fucking egregious
I do have a tendency to get annoyed or angry at things a lot
Especially when they’re just brainrot
Yeah
That’s fine, just as long as you make sure to not lash out immediately
it’s probably better to just like sit for a bit before responding
it can and it has
And it will 
will it
Yes, you exist
find me a source for me existing
The fact monster hunter exists mean you exist
kinda like this 
existence as we know it is defined by ourselves, we made the term for existing, the definition, and the conditions for existing and for not existing
I ain’t a philosopher go ask cei or something
fabsol calamity restore my moderator powers so i can throw rocks at people in lore discussion
fabosl
what if i became mod
if garbo became a mod, users would begin turning into astrum aureuses
i could kill people for calling me stinky
I am not responsible enough for being a mod so no thanks
Silencing the truth I see
if I locked in I could but I don't want to
I think any mod who isn’t a lore writer is simply
afraid of this place
and for good reason
yea
the evil creatures of lore discussion
If you don’t know the lore
we're like the enclosure of rabid animals
you literally cannot participate
And that is?
no one wants to go in there but someone has to before they tear each other apart
or even understand what the fuck the convo is about
You can
Ask questions
Ah fair
same
but I think we genuinely need a semi active mod
or just someone who lurks occasionally to bring down the stfu hammer
when theres a new mod application ill try
last time i skipped it cause i didnt have enough time for it
I mean I can ask in patreon..
waiting for 2026
and hope that they have someone actively be here
2018 will be my year 💚
Whose year will be 2026 then
seriously tho 2018 was a banger
my universe began collapsing late 2019...
anyway
last good year
mhmhmmh
what if we did like the people used to
like look for a random bestiary entry or something like that
and overthink about it
that’d be nice
man
Thinking about that stuff
reminds me of when there were more ppl
who talked here often
"Though their exoskeleton provides minimal protection, their deceptively light weight allows them to run on water. These curious insects are even known to ride acidic bubbles for better vantage points and to escape being devoured by surfacing sea creatures."
most of the earlier 2023 era people are now like
doing addon shtuff
or not that interested in calamity
depends
Trasher
"Despite being equipped with a mouth large enough to swallow a child whole, these crocodiles simply act as scavengers, devouring scraps and bones left over from predators’ meals. Needing to conserve energy due to eating relatively little, they rarely move at their full speed unless they feel threatened."
nice lore right there
yea
That may change when it becomes the mini boss for tier one
I hope SSO brings back the 2022 and 2023 ppl
rea l
this stuff makes me feel lowkey old
not that I was there then admittedly
Hello lorers
Man. I told myself I'd play calamity again when SSO released, and that was... 5 years ago???
Some time before the 1.4 port I think
What do we talk about
Atleast SSO is only a few months probably away
Lore of lore chat I think
My guess is Jan-Feb
Oh ok
could be later, I hardly mind waiting longer
Same
gives me more time to get suggestions in before the update is added 🥴
anyway
Can dragons be like...any kind of form of animal?
I remember hearing some talk about a mammoth dragon
And then yharon plays a bit into bird-like features
I’m personally fine enough about the current lore disc
I'm amazed that both silksong and SSO have taken so long
I've been waiting for both for... Such a long time...
Though it could be good to have a mod to kill those boss taste discussions
I’m mean, silksong isn’t much above the average time for a game to be made iirc
Just that they told the community about it from the start
It was planned to be released 2 years ago and then we've gotten literally 2 sentences about progress since then
yeah big difference is SSO gets frequent progress updates, more than I've seen for any video game ever
Scope creep
I'm thinking, like, did they run out of money or something???
It’s made them millions
you can spend millions
Concord squandered 400 million in that timespan
Yeahh
SSO has some major scope creep seemingly
but Idm
I think it’s highly unlikely they ran out of money and it’s more A scope creep thing
I just hope they get what they want out ofnit
what is scope creep
Basically the scope of a project
When the scope for a project gets bigger
They keep wanting to add more stuff
continuously gets bigger over
Cosmic Guardian
"Though of the same species as the nameless serpent, their minds and functions are far more basic. They possess very little will of their own and blindly follow the orders of their gluttonous master."
look at this
Ah okay, thanks
This is definitely old lore
Sometimes to the point that the original plan for the project is unfathomably different from what is released
Oh right those exist, yharim even dumber we know what small devourers look like
Yeah
makes sense
was quite sus on this, but then I remembered that iirc Cosmic Guardians are being scrapped
so idk
that doesn't surprise me actually
considering a DoG rework is in line, cosmic guardians will probably not be kept in it
That may bloat the mods file size a lot
A addon instead
Since it is a distortion creature, it could be that they use a completely different power
Stormlion
"Some survivors of Ilmeris’ downfall claim that enough magical lightning surged through the sea during its final days that there existed not a single drop of water without levin coursing through it. Even now, electricity from the battle remains buried in the sands, with several antlions having learned to both channel and harness the former kingdom’s power."
whaw
if only I knew how to math the energy to electrify water rn
Ontonilou was electrifying the entire sea to fight scal or something iirc
Some survivors?
Ilmeris survivors let’s go
apparently
Idek if. he
has bones
his biology is fundamentally different from ours
His body structure too
nothing about him is like us seemingly
Looks like that’s a spine and rib cage
iirc he has a skeletal system, but that is not inherently bone
You could say that they’re not like us
a few months ago
when the new sprite was shown
like august I think idk
reveals his eye scar
Yea
(a lot more than just his eye if u look closely)
also, according to heart plus iirc
he's slimy
It’s before cei dropped a lot of sprites
was shared aug 3rd
the other scars are so hard to see, but still very much visible
Other scars?
actually wait- this is different from the aug 3rd one
there's no lump in the middle of his head
this one i've sent is older
interesting
i assumed those were veins
Yeah a updated one was dropped at some time
or something similar to those
Same
they look like scars
so I assume they are
Just lighter ones thn
the one the eye
or maybe older
idk
Well they could very much
I love it
not be bones
skeletal systems don't necessarily mean bone
I assumed they were veins
The scar we see may be months old
His teeth are obviously not fuckin enamel and dentin
weird veins
considering they’re inconsistent
and very much not in the same places
And it’s a weird creature from the distortion
He probably doesn’t like
even have
blood like us
He doesn’t have our body structure
blood exists to fuel organs with oxygen
Is Moon Lord stronger than even Yharon when at full power? Where does he really fall in the power scale when he is at full strength?
for all we know DoG may not even be carbon based
who says he needs oxygen
Far above yharim it’s not even close
Fovos would be second
full power fovos was cracked
in the verse
'does the distortion have oxygen' is a very important question i've had for a while
He’d beat Yharim
Fovos would have a chance at beating xeroc imo
Yharon would honestly be a really easy fight for fovos
Why do all the calamity worms have a second set of external jaws?
Well that’s a bit surprising, I’ll be right back, but I’m curious to hear more… some questions being raised are interesting to me.
he’s a fucking giant target
Yharim Imo would be harder than even Zeratros for Fovos to deal with
incredibly small
and incredibly fast
It’d be like fighting a fly but the fly can also hurt you decently
I have no real idea tbh
Mandibles cool ig
I don’t complain
All the thousands of dragons working together couldn't beat Fovos, and the average dragon was at plantera level, with the strongest ones at Yharon level and the weakest at slime god level probably
itd be like fighting a hornet more like
yeah
But hornets are tbf far easier
its small and frail but can input some serious damage
to hit
The way I see it is
Zeratros is like equal to yharim iirc
than a fly
i mean fair
but one fly wont do like
anything to you
Is it because they were ambushed so bad or were they prepared, was fovos just that strong?
I didn't realize most dragons weren't super strong
Fovos was just that strong
I do not believe
Though ambush wouldn't help
no wonder people were so easily able to cull them to become gods
Fovos attacked chrysadia first or am I going insane
Oh cool
Where was this said?
That they saw fovos earlier
Oh ok
They said "I do not believe the dragons saw him coming" in two messages
Anyways yeah
ever faced anything like this before
Fovos strong
I don’t think all the dragons were loyal to each other
So they’d likely not have any idea
And probably had some special power
there's definitely outcast dragons
of what the FUCK to do
They didn’t, otherwise gods would have existed before
Speaking of which
Well
I mean I'm sure dragons had died beforehand
Do you guys think there were single incidents of gods in the draconic era?
and with most dragons being eidolon level
isn't it specifically the first auric soul being absorbed that people realized this could be done?
all you need is an aoe attack above that
No one had the god ritual before then
and you wipe the majority
So no, no one would have become a god
Xeroc created the ritual
of the dragons out
So no
like literally anything that’s surprasses the durability of an eidolon
in a singular attack
would likely kill/severely injure
like most of the dragons
probably 90% of them
Were the dragons aware of the ritual? I assume they did a similiar ritual to the fragments, but did they think the same can be done to them too?
what happened between xeroc and zeratros was muddy and not really elaborated on but I theorize zeratros told xeroc to absorb the soul and gave him the ritual
neither knowing the consquences of what would come of that
I kinda imagine
It's interesting how little people know of xeroc
Not even draedon does
yeah
And providence doesnt from a statement
if draedon doesn't then people really don't know
Maybe he thought that he’ll die anyways and it could be dangerous if someone with malevolent intentions got the power?
I’m trying to process the Fovos situation as I just got back why is he so weak even still was he just never able to heal before he’s summoned by us?
“'What is the true price of the past being ever eternal?
Why must our future forever haunt us?'”
Yeah he was sealed on the moon and seemingly never healed
I’m assuming the seal
had put him into a situation where he was unable to use
any magic
or anything at all
And so couldn’t heal
Yeah
Now that I think about it, draedon would probably know the locations of various of the last gods remaining yeah?
yeah
He actively is curious about what would happen
if Yharim lost
and died
he wants to see the impact on society
if they knew Yharim didn’t just die of natural causes
but if he was defeated
Draedon knows a lot… but I don’t know the limits of his understanding either I feel like there are a lot of detains with him left to be explored.
Draedon has said so himself iirc
as knowledgeable and old
as draedon is
He knows a lot
He doesn’t know of Xeroc
He doesn’t?!
Draedon is not omniscient but he knows more than 99% of people
Nope
Draedon had assumed
His exo mechs surpassed all gods
He would be correct
if not for Xeroc
Yharim even says so
Yharim has said so yes
The lore item from exos state draedon claims they surpass all gods
But Xeroc is leagues stronger
“even he is not privy to the Traitor Almighty”
It seems really weird that almost no one knows about Xeroc
It is a bit strange yeah
the gray period lasted for anout
a century iirc
last time cei posted the timeline
Yeah but even then
He has kinda just done nothing since ascending that is garunteed canon
Most ppl likely heard tale of him
People remember big important things
Xeroc ascending and doing literally nothing
or has been spotted
what was even the point..
We don’t know what he has been doing if he has
Our best guess is that he swore to protect terraria from only external threats and never interfere with the world itself
Could be in the distortion hunting noxus from a mango leak
that makes sense tbh
Things happen
times change
the crusade is about to be over
the era of gods has ended
a new one is beginning
I would actually, thinking about it, love to see an addon that brings Fovos back to full power, sorry to hold us on the subject, but I just thought of this…
I can see why yharim is so interested in what is to happen tbh
while the planet is in a shitty state now
I would imagine that noxus would be quite easy to find, as some big egg thing dormant in the middle with a bunch of stuff connecting to it, but this is entirely headcanon vaguely inspired by old lore
It’ll likely be better
No need to be sorry
But yeah would be cool to see
Ngl
with no dragons and very few gods, the balance of the world has been massively shifted into the hands of...who, exactly? I assume that's one of the big questions Draedon is so curious about
I imagine Draedon just going through space and just
runs into Xeroc
and is just like
“What”
“What the fuck”
”Gimme sample”
Yeah
A god unknown even to him with seemingly the ability to control light?
Not just light
Primordial light aswell
One that far surpasses anything he’s even seen
Since draedon knows about silva but not xeroc and he claims exos are stronger than all gods does that mean silva is weaker than exos
Yes
Yes lilely
yes
considering draedon was around for almost the entire crusade
So him saying Draedon would be correct
it means it's likely every god bar xeroc is weaker than exos
My goat is washed
Implies Silva would lose
And it’s not like
Draedon is one
to make unfounded claims
he’s not DoG
there was probably a few gods stronger than providence that were just really hard to take down, but ultimately still weaker than exos
Jank you should fragment your messages less...
I try to sometimes but my brain is wired dumb
brain fog
brain frog
no way...
Could the Exos gain self awareness and sentience? Would they be complex and understanding enough to do so… I’ve been curious about that, ‘cause surely they could Draedon just prevents it?
I think silva before abyssification would be stronger than provi, maybe not dog level
Draedon likes the exos so much because they aren't filled with sentient life
They are literally Draedon’s extensions
He controls them with his mind
They have the artificial brain structure like draedon
They could stir the data needed to be sentient and free but draedon won’t allow it
I mean she is a perfect god of a damn strong domain
What exactly is Hypnos btw
I hear reference to it, is it just scrapped exo brain? Is it planned to be added?
Isn’t it a fandom shitpost
Is it actually
It’s a meme added when people raided fandom wiki one time iirc
I doubt that
Yeah
But it was high quality and has its own addon
Isn't there an actual pet item for it planned in the future content doc or omething lmao
Imo
Silva would be around Braelor
but slightly below
And Imo Braelor is above Yharon
but below Scal and the mechs
He managed to fight Yharim who was equalish to the exo mechs to a standstill
implying relativity
I think silva isn’t a good combatant, quite strong among the strongest gods but she has very little offensive ability
But she shines in blessing others to extreme lengths seen with Jared and braelor to some extent
Silva's domain is strong but she doesn't seem like the type to be great at fighting
real question is why didn't DoG eat silva
Didn't want to get wet
Probably before dog came around
And she didn’t die
why'd they dump her in the ocean instead of throwing her into their hired wastebin- oh
So no essence for wof
Yharim very much said that Statis went in for a killing blow
Dog was in the later parts of the crusade
I thought it was him and statis
try to entangle their weapons
And then have Statis come in for the last bit
or for Statis to just play assist
Yeah I don't think we have a concrete timeframe for when DoG joined besides it being later
but how much later
cause iirc Braelor was physically
stronger than even Yharim
at the time
based off what Reb said
statis is a bushcamper 💔
How would’ve statis killed him
Stab him
Does he just kick that hard
stabby..
Late enough some people think dog came first
Also btw
likely areas include openings under the helmet where the neck was
That’s from after the fight
With heavy thanatos’ armor is
Condensed holy wood
That axe is probably just as durable as auric
And how good at keeping its sharpness is
and probably even heavier
I imagine he could actually crack and chip
Yharim’s armor
How much can Thanatos really resist?
well, thanatos' armour is also partially cosmilite
When a segment isn’t exposed
It’s also grown
and made far differently
than the others
We can’t break Thanatos armour, we hit it when it opens up weak spots
We don’t know just that it’s a fuck ton
it’s incredibly fucking durable
Like I don’t think Yharim
could cut through
even with all his strength
It’s probably fair to say Thanatos exceeds Yharim’s durability and own armor
a fair bit
But it is supposed to be indestructible according to the maker but we can’t always trust him… sure he’ll be honest, likely has no real reason to lie but given he is a scientist it’s more accurate to say he hasn’t found something that can break though it
Likely nothing on this planet
