random mulch
#

probably

light linden
#

Basically the astral infection took over someone and is using them like a pillar for their hive mind to coordinate their efforts to ultimately create a black hole

#

and the fight involves you fighting the 'pillar' and hordes of buffed astral infection enemies

random mulch
#

sentient beings cant get infected

light linden
split mortar
light linden
#

but apparently there's no info about what happens if someone is exposed long term or what happens if someone tries to become infected

river python
#

well,

#

if there is no boss with astral infection post-dog

#

that means every being superior or equal to DoG

light linden
river python
#

and cannot be controlled

wheat walrus
#

that's not even how it works

#

you can even be xeroc but if you are no sapient being you cannot be infected

river python
wheat walrus
#

no :/

#

the only way to not get infected by the astral infection that we know of is specifically stated to just be

#

be smort

#

very smort

#

human-like smort

river python
#

so a normal human cannot be infected?

wheat walrus
#

yes a human can't be infected normally unless idk it's a fucking baby

#

at least for all I am aware, it's mainly about sapient like a human is

river python
#

hmm

devout grotto
#

Speaking of infection

#

I still can't get the idea of Rage and Adrenaline being negative energies from the Crimson and Corruption respectively that were converted into stuff more useful for the Terrarian (or at least. My Terrarian)

light linden
#

just being in the astral infection? we're immune to that method of infection

river python
#

The infection is like a hive mind, right?

#

cuz the biome is alive

split mortar
#

The biome is just a bunch of stinky magic I think and the mind control and voices talking about the cosmos is a natural occurance I think ?

devout grotto
light linden
river python
#

I still don't understand very well how the astral infection was formed.

devout grotto
light linden
#

basically

#

star gets really big and it starts decaying

river python
light linden
#

stars are concentrated mana in universe btw

river python
#

Your job is to eat those stars that died

split mortar
light linden
river python
#

now Astrum Deus protect the astral infection because he is infected

#

He threw the infection onto the planet, when the astral infection infected it.

split mortar
wheat walrus
#

:/

devout grotto
light linden
#

you know how we eat dead animals right?

river python
#

and he got infected by that

sleek halo
light linden
#

they do it to survive

wheat walrus
river python
devout grotto
split mortar
sleek halo
#

a species

river python
wheat walrus
sleek halo
#

Draedon is just making a guess

devout grotto
#

(Idek if these ramblings of mine are canon-compliant but if they aren't I could save them for a vanilla story ig)

sleek halo
#

i don’t think he fully confirms that other members

split mortar
sleek halo
#

of deus exists

wheat walrus
river python
#

If Draedon gives his opinion, I listen.

wheat walrus
#

"according to Draedon"

light linden
wheat walrus
#

yall cant read damn

#

calamity curse

sleek halo
#

can take his word as fact

light linden
river python
wheat walrus
sleek halo
#

the only reason for that is because he doesn’t seemingly

#

actively lie

#

afaik

light linden
#

he doesn't have a reason to tbf

split mortar
sleek halo
#

yeah

#

650 years is

light linden
#

yharim has a reason

sleek halo
#

a long time to live

light linden
#

draedon doesn't

split mortar
sleek halo
#

yeah

#

like i imagine draedon has like

#

the best map of the world

#

by far

#

since for a long time he just scouted iirc

river python
#

what is Draedon?

#

an alien?

#

a machine?

sleek halo
#

an AI

split mortar
#

Ai robot guy

river python
#

robots can't do themselves

sleek halo
#

Well there was a dead guy in the room where Draedon woke up

deft vessel
#

There are theories

sleek halo
#

So presumably that guy

split mortar
deft vessel
#

Many the dead guy transfered their mind into Draedon

river python
untold oracle
#

Or the mind transfer was intentionally removing the memories to not hinder research

split mortar
#

Maybe

river python
#

a human transfered his mind to a machine.

#

makes very sense

deft vessel
#

I still like the Daedalus theory tho

split mortar
fierce pagoda
#

I theorized that Dreadon did something similar to what Dr Gero from Dragon ball did, and it turned out i was halfway correct

deft vessel
#

So perhaps Daedalus was dying and to extend his life he transfered his mind into Draedon

split mortar
#

Sadly Daedalus gear getting renamed eventually iirc

deft vessel
#

Yes iirc

fierce pagoda
#

Deadalus stormbow

light linden
#

still hate the nerfs for it

split mortar
#

The nerfs?

fierce pagoda
#

Its still viable for mechs

light linden
split mortar
#

Oh didn’t know it was nerfed

fierce pagoda
#

oh i thought you meant the vanilla nerfs

river python
#

what material is the material that is dropped by the DoG?

untold oracle
#

Cosmilite

river python
split mortar
#

Armour

untold oracle
#

Armour

river python
#

good, where did that came?

#

that ore

untold oracle
#

Distortion

#

It’s liquid there iirc

split mortar
#

Might be a liquid normally iirc

fierce pagoda
#

liquid at distortion temperature maybe

river python
#

okay makes sense

fierce pagoda
#

and when its in our world it turns solid

light linden
fierce pagoda
#

theory

light linden
#

the future rework kinda invalidates that

split mortar
fierce pagoda
#

or its just Dreadon tampering

split mortar
river python
#

so the exo things, are make of, Cosmilite, Bloodstone, Uelilbloom and Auric, isn't it?

river python
light linden
#

exo prisms?

#

no they're made of sea prisms

#

miracle matter is something they give off and we stabilize it with auric and other similar stuff

river python
spring helm
#

They’re not

river python
#

so whats are they materials

river python
split mortar
#

They can’t use auric cause auric doesn’t care if you’re a robot it will explode you

spring helm
#

We know they have cosmilite, but we don’t know what else Draedon put in the alloy

light linden
#

they use a cosmilite alloy for the armor

split mortar
#

Yeah it’s a alloy of cosmolite but we don’t know what else

#

Uelibloom didn’t exist before we killed providence since it’s her actual god essence

light linden
#

still wonder

river python
light linden
#

could profaned ore be used to heat a room?

split mortar
light linden
#

auric is only stable because we use fragments of auric souls to stop it

#

draedon can't do that

spring helm
#

Terrarian with cosmilite armour: stronger than Yharon
Exo mechs have cosmilite alloy armour: stronger than Yharon
Dog with cosmilite armour: weaker than Yharon

This worm is a fraud

split mortar
#

All we know is for sentient thing the best way to avoid it exploding you is to be attuned to a auric being or be a auric being

river python
light linden
#

also it has a constant electric charge

deft vessel
light linden
#

it could easily cook the robots

split mortar
green bay
#

Have you tried gently asking auric ore not to be like that

untold oracle
#

True

river python
untold oracle
#

Draedon forgot to say please

spring helm
#

That’s how you attune

river python

Changelog probably

untold oracle
#

After consulting the Jungle Yhim and Nameless Xeroc

river python
fierce pagoda
#

Rank these characters on order of whos most and least innocent/responsible for deaths during the crusades: Calamitas, Dreadon, Yharim, Yharon, Permafrost.

deft vessel
#

Perma most innocent

river python
#

Calamitas is responsible of the deads of the ""seamans"", Draedon of the kill of the beings of the jungle creating the Plague Bringer.

#

and Yharim... well..

untold oracle
fierce pagoda
#

Yharim
Yharon,
Dreadon,
Calamitas
Permafrost

#

my list

deft vessel
devout grotto
untold oracle
#

You could technically switch up Yharim and Yharon since Yharon did feed Yhim excessibe amounts of Yhapaganda

fierce pagoda
#

yeah thats waht i was thinking

#

but i think Yharim had a more hands on approach than Yharon

untold oracle
#

Exactly

devout grotto
#

Yhapping

#

Yha(p)rim
Yha(p)ron

deft vessel
#

I would put Perma below Scal because we hanvent heard of him doing anything. Scal might have been manipulated but she still killed all those people

fierce pagoda
#

Scal has a lot of blood on her hands, so thats why i don't think she's innocent

#

Permafrost was also part of it, but like i dont think he did anything like THAT

river python
#

the exo-wulfrums would be the stronger thing ever created

untold oracle
#

Perma was moreso the strategy guy

#

But he was also very much conscious on his actions

fierce pagoda
#

yeah, Perhaps without knowing it, Permafrost laid the ground work for Yharim to go as far as he did in the crusades

untold oracle
#

Yes he did that

fierce pagoda
#

He left as soon as iYharim when crazy though

untold oracle
#

Yharim said smth like his crusade was possible early on thanks to him

jaunty wraith
#

Hey question: What was xerocs old name before he ascended?

fierce pagoda
#

but he should have tried to take Scal with him

untold oracle
fierce pagoda
#

and not leave her with Yharim

deft vessel
fierce pagoda
#

that may have been his biggest fumble

deft vessel
#

But devolved quickly

untold oracle
#

The question is that are the actions or the motives the worse

jaunty wraith
#

what was the dragon kings name?

deft vessel
river python
#

who is the most troll character in the lore?

fierce pagoda
#

How old was Scal when she game ended the sunken sea?

#

do we know?

untold oracle
river python
untold oracle
#

Gaslighted Yharim because he heard this from someone who heard this from someone…

fierce pagoda
#

Xeroc should have just cleared things up with Yharon first

#

all of this is your fault Xeroc good job

#

actually no its Xeroc's parents fault for making him

#

actually no its their parents faults for making them

#

no the real person at fault is the universe for even starting to exist in the first place

river python
fierce pagoda
#

Victim of Yharim propaganda

river python
#

huh?

#

who's the bad guy here

fierce pagoda
#

Yharim tells you Xerocis a bad guy in the lore item

fierce pagoda
#

but thats just what Yharim knows, and Yharim is VERY biased.

#

really, we have no idea what happened between Xeroc and Zeratros when Xeroc consumed his auric soul

deft vessel
#

But as Yhe previously stated: ”no one knows what happened that night”

river python
#

so all the whispers that i read, is the low knowledge that Yharim's have?

fierce pagoda
#

yep

river python
devout grotto
mighty zenith
#

all of it is from a very biased perspective

fierce pagoda
river python
#

But is the hunting of dragons by the gods real?

fierce pagoda
#

yeah that is real

mighty zenith
#

of course yharim, the biggest dragon sympathizer to exist, would hate xeroc

mighty zenith
river python
#

so the gods are bad, solved case

#

yippe

fierce pagoda
#

NO

river python
devout grotto
#

Nope

mighty zenith
#

it wasn't the big planned mass genocide that yharim paints it as

river python
dusk laurel
deft vessel
mighty zenith
#

it didnt happen all immediately

fierce pagoda
#

its like with humans, some humans are bad, some humans are good, and many humans are morally gray.

mighty zenith
#

people just heard rumors of xeroc ascending and decided to try doing it themselves at very different times, for very different reasons and under very different circumstances

fierce pagoda
#

the same goes for both Dragons and Gods

mighty zenith
#

like, imagine this

river python
mighty zenith
#

you go to fight a piece of shit dragon who has been terrorizing people

mighty zenith
#

you slay it and find out that you can absorb its soul to prevent it from terrorizing anyone ever again

#

while also gaining its domain

#

wouldn't you do that

deft vessel
#

Balance is a subjective term

river python
mighty zenith
#

well there you go

#

that is exactly what happened with providence

#

we know how she turned out but

devout grotto
#

Wait really?

fierce pagoda
#

but Providence went then bad way

devout grotto
#

Damn

mighty zenith
#

the circumstances of her ascension were very different

fierce pagoda
#

fuck you Providence

river python
#

huhh

mighty zenith
#

the dragon of flame was a piece of shit

river python
#

my mind is collapsing

#

i falled into Yharim Propaganda

mighty zenith
#

we can assume the dragon of gluttony was too

#

and well

#

yharon is obvious

fierce pagoda
mighty zenith
#

a lot of people did

#

including me

deft vessel
pliant ruin
#

given the dragon of gluttony is named after a capital sin i doubt my guy is very benevolent

river python
#

i thought the Dragons were the good guys

pliant ruin
#

the dragons are neither good guys nor bad guys

#

they're just Guys

mighty zenith
pliant ruin
#

some are bad

#

some are good

mighty zenith
#

like
thats not an excuse

fierce pagoda
#

I used to think Yharim lore items were written from a omniscient narrator, so i was like huh

mighty zenith
#

there is no excuse to mass genocide

#

yharon is fucked up

#

he may be fluffy but he's fucked up

deft vessel
pliant ruin
#

I think yharon is evil but also he's a tragic sort of evil

#

like i wouldn't doubt he used to be good in the past

#

but after everything he went through he broke

mighty zenith
#

yeah i can see that

fierce pagoda
#

Yharon has got to be like a bit racist, from the way he had no regard for human lives

deft vessel
#

Exactly

river python
#

So, there are no villains, only antagonists.

mighty zenith
#

still
yharon's current state is proof that dragons aren't the pure and malevolent beings yharim loves painting them as

pliant ruin
#

there's a villain it's called yharim

fierce pagoda
#

technically, all the bosses you fight are antagonists

pliant ruin
#

also providence

mighty zenith
#

a pure and malevolent being wouldnt go to this length

pliant ruin
#

also the devourer of gods

#

there's alot of villains

#

like there's alot of people who are just like, really bad in the lore

#

does the devourer count as people

deft vessel
river python
mighty zenith
#

he seems pretty sapient

pliant ruin
#

i doubt hes being controlled

mighty zenith
pliant ruin
#

more so i think he works for him in some way

#

loyalty

#

specially because we have reason to believe he's not part of the distortion hivemind

river python
#

everything I knew has collapsed

pliant ruin
#

which would imply that the devourer is loyal to noxus on his own

river python
#

the dragons are not good buddys

mighty zenith
#

well
its not black and white like that

pliant ruin
#

mycat is going insane trying to eat her tail

deft vessel
#

I’d say Noxus is evil and working for it asociates you to evil

mighty zenith
#

there were nice dragons, evil ones and everything in between

#

same with gods

pliant ruin
#

vetrasyl was pretty chill wasnt he

mighty zenith
#

the issue is yharim putting them both on only one side

#

so gods evil and dragons good

fierce pagoda
#

Dragons, gods and humans all have one thing in common, and that is that some of them are bad, some of them are good, and many of them are morally gray, but we are all equally complex.

pliant ruin
#

yeah this honestly

fierce pagoda
#

that is something you should always keep in mind

deft vessel
#

Yharim can only see in black and white

mighty zenith
#

dismissing anything good the gods have done (such as expanding civilizations and improving the world)

pliant ruin
#

yharim is a dog

#

he can only see in black and white

mighty zenith
#

and dismissing anything bad the dragons have done

indigo glade
mighty zenith
#

so true

deft vessel
#

I mean he is

#

a politician

fierce pagoda
#

So Auric ore has a constant electrical charge?

#

the same way as the Sea prisms?

jaunty wraith
#

I think auric is just a case of "so powerful it needs electric effects to show how powerful it is"

#

Like super Saiyan

jaunty wraith
#

Pretty much

I mean... The only person who we hear the dragon story from is Yharim

Depends

#

y'all think yharim would let a god go out the way they wanted to?

#

or would he just ignore their request and attack?

dusk laurel
#

Probably not

light linden
#

also random thing

split mortar
light linden
#

have y'all read draedon's theories on how goozma had an auric soul?

deft vessel
#

Huh HotOG adds quite alot

light linden

it feels very random

deft vessel
#

Agreed

random mulch
#

i like the fight personally

deft vessel
#

I mean it’s cool but quite random

devout grotto
#

I mean it's not canon anyway

i like that it's effectively a bunch of minigames for the first part, keeps it fresh compared to other boss fights

I should specify

the attacks feel random

Anyway Stip mentioned once that the strength of a mortal soul depended on the individual’s willpower or something.

Weak soul Slime God

the entire idea of a crafty little cowardly guy just fits a goblin so well imo

hey its ok

That’s why they turned into slime in the first place instead of remaining a twink

Just look at Silva, Tyrian, and Otonilou. They remained basically the same

are goblins even canon in calamity?

but for a bit I thought it was a different one

split mortar
#

Oh ok

heady vapor
#

Technically, is the Corruption Lore accurate, but not the Crimson?

#

I posted this on the wrong thing

#

Originally

split mortar
heady vapor
#

Because Dreadon got the design of The Destroyer and Thanatos from the Eater Of Worlds

mighty zenith
#

he did not canonically

heady vapor
#

Oh

split mortar
#

Both pre hardmode corruption and crimson exist I think we just see one

heady vapor
#

I thought that was the basis for the worms

mighty zenith
#

the destroyer is simply a repurposed digging robot

#

in cal lore

split mortar
#

^

mighty zenith
#

it's just worm shaped cause worms dig well

heady vapor
heady vapor
#

Dreadon likes worms

#

Gotcha

split mortar
#

We only explore a small part of a entire continent

mighty zenith
#

same with skelly prime

#

it being so similar to skeletron is just an unfortunate vanilla thing

heady vapor
#

So Yharim likes bees, and Dreadon likes worms

heady vapor
#

Does Permafrost like penguins?

mighty zenith
#

well
technically its an unfortunate (in draedon's eyes) coincidence

split mortar
#

Hell the mech bosses might be older then the pre hardmode versions lol

heady vapor
#

Or whatever the ice wizards name is

mighty zenith
#

since we do canonically call it skeletron prime HDfailure

mighty zenith
split mortar
mighty zenith
#

permafrost strikes me as a bird guy

#

tbh

#

he'd have like
a parrot

#

maybe a swallow

heady vapor
#

So, it’s just a very coincidental coincidence that the mechs are just like Skelly, WOW, and that damn eye?

#

And Dreadon made them before he knew they were actual entities

mighty zenith
#

he mightve known of eye of cthulhu and the eater, since we dont know when they were created

#

but i don't think him knowing about skeletron was possible

heady vapor
#

(I like calling Eater of Worlds “Worm of Worlds”)

strange stump
mighty zenith
#

fair take

split mortar
#

Yeah mech bosses are just big lot of coincidence when it comes to resembling other guys

mighty zenith
#

would give him a connection to calamitas (because she would be a cat person and there's no question bout this)

split mortar
mighty zenith
#

everything about her screams cat person

heady vapor
#

Why did I spell cats like that…

mighty zenith
#

she'd be like

heady vapor
mighty zenith
#

"noo i hate cats i dont want one"

#

and then take care of a random stray that came over to her

split mortar
heady vapor
#

Or like Kaguya from Love is War

She is a human not cat

Reign of yharim

Is where the stiuop bugs are from

light linden
#

tf is reign of yharim

split mortar
#

Fan game of calamity that is in the genre of metroidvania iirc

Quite early development currently

light linden
#

ah ok

split mortar
#

Cheese and daiquiri are part of the dev team

#

There’s a discord for it

light linden
#

just realized

#

are there any swamps in calamity?

#

I think it's the only kind of irl environment not mentioned

dusk laurel
#

Likely some elsewhere in the world

split mortar
#

I mean

The jungle has a ludicrous amount of wet and mud and trees

#

So that’s prob the closest we will get in game

light linden
#

although now that I think about it

#

irl crimson would prolly be a swamp

split mortar
light linden
#

lot of liquid that likely doesn't move

fading helm
#

Im sure that there are some waters in the jungle that constitute for that

split mortar
#

Yeah

light linden
fading helm
#

What would Yharim think of modern day society CompleteFailure

light linden
#

depends on which part of it

#

he'd prolly hate dictatorships

cloud ibex
#

he probably wouldn't like a bunch of people in high governmental positions

light linden
#

I feel like he'd be neutral to democracies

split mortar
#

“They’re not being racist in the right way!”

cloud ibex
#

but i think he'd be chill with irl religions

dusk laurel
#

Yeah

fading helm
#

What would he feel of the lack of dragons here

cloud ibex
#

at least assuming he'd understand that irl gods haven't killed dragons

split mortar
#

Depends on what religions have

dusk laurel
#

So not much

light linden
#

he'd prolly hate overreligious governments

cloud ibex
light linden
#

wonder what he'd think of big cities tbh

dusk laurel
#

I think he'd be indifferent

light linden
#

idk

fading helm
#

Population would be unexpected probs

dusk laurel
#

There were "large" cities in his empire after all

fading helm
#

how many people live in the world of terraria

dusk laurel
#

[Azafure]

light linden
#

I feel like new york city might surprise him

split mortar
fading helm
#

ah so not by much

light linden
#

he'd prolly be surprised we have no magic though

dusk laurel
#

Early industrial revolution in the cities

#

Well some, not all

split mortar
#

Only numbers we got was

21-300 million died to crusade

Crusade killed like 20% of all people

hybrid barn
#

Y'know, I wonder how Yharim would handle a social situation there
Like, is he familiar with just...existing around people?

fading helm
#

I think yharim empire had like industrial revolution civilization but future tech weapons

light linden
fading helm
#

cus draedon

light linden
#

basically

fading helm
dusk laurel
#

Azafure was already entering the industrial revolution before Draedon joined

hybrid barn
fading helm
#

well not normal dude lv

light linden
#

weapon technology was dramatically more advanced than everything else

fading helm
#

but he wouldnt tweak out

#

and destroy a city

#

just by being around

split mortar
#

What about nukes?

light linden
#

here's my question

fading helm
dusk laurel
#

He'd have to not wear his armor if he doesn't want to annihilate any civilians

light linden
#

you think he'd try to figure out if earth had a world soul?

fading helm
split mortar
#

Like in an instant the power of supreme Calamitas is just released from one object

light linden
#

and if so try to use it to recreate the dragons?

fading helm
#

did yharon know

dusk laurel
dusk laurel
split mortar
dusk laurel
#

Yharon was the 3rd dragon to gain an auric soul

#

So definitely

fading helm
#

i did not know this

light linden
#

life was the first

#

death was 2nd

#

rebirth was 3rd

split mortar
#

First life
Death second
Rebirth third

fading helm
light linden
#

and I think light was the 5th

split mortar
dusk laurel
fading helm
#

ah alr

dusk laurel
#

not confirmed

cloud ibex
#

in my mind the majority of his life he's been so solely focused on the crusade he has forgotten how to be a normal person

split mortar
#

I think 4th personally for zeratros

light linden
#

do we know how old yharim was when the egg was discovered?

fading helm
#

dont know if this was old lore statement tho

light linden
#

so he might have some

#

from schooling or what not

split mortar
fading helm
#

yharim lore still has the whole rebelling against gods and getting thrown into lava no?

hybrid barn
fading helm
#

thats how he got yharon

cloud ibex
#

well it wasn't specifically gods before but yes

split mortar
#

Yharim is like 130ish

Crusade has been going on for like 100 years

split mortar
hybrid barn
#

OHHH-
Okay, that makes sense

cloud ibex
#

or they willingly gave their soul to silva

split mortar
#

Silva is the only other god we know of to have perfect ascended

dusk laurel
#

The life elemental got the life dragon's soul

cloud ibex
#

i like to imagine that the two things needed for perfect ascensions are the dragon's consent and the Terminus

split mortar
cloud ibex
#

maybe zeratros and the DoL realized that the age of dragons couldn't last forever and it was time to move on

split mortar
#

What I said doesn’t contradict xeroc perfectly ascending which they did

cloud ibex
#

in the dragon of Life's case maybe they saw it as a form of evolution

split mortar
cloud ibex
fading helm
#

or was it not stated

hybrid barn
dusk laurel
fading helm
#

og alr

cloud ibex
#

the only source that he didn't is Yharim

fading helm
#

simply because no auric soul

cloud ibex
#

(as we know, generally not a good source on anything related to gods or dragons)

split mortar
fading helm
hybrid barn
fading helm
#

so they still merge

#

so it aint pure auric

#

How you guys know silva cant touch auric tho

#

did i miss another dev statement

cloud ibex
#

we don't i think

split mortar
dusk laurel
fading helm
#

not like they have much use for it

#

tho

split mortar
#

We know normal gods can’t

#

We dunno about oerfect ascended gods

dusk laurel
#

Perfect ascension gods are still a mystery somewhat

fading helm
#

i dont rember anything like that being said

dusk laurel
#

Dev statement iirc

fading helm
dusk laurel
#

That's all we know

split mortar
# fading helm how?

Because ascending normally destroys the auric properties of the soul resulting in a soul different to auric and normal ones but we don’t know if it’s the same case for perfect ascension

Prob dev statement

fading helm
#

Maybe its just a gacha game with a 1/100 chance clueless

dusk laurel
#

💥

split mortar
#

Xeroc made the ascension ritual so I doubt it

fading helm
#

and they still merge

#

afaik i dont think normal gods destroy part of auric soul

#

they just absorb it

split mortar
#

If it’s the same then yeah perfect ascensions explode to auric aswell

dusk laurel
#

Xeroc was also attuned to Zeratros before ascending

So does permafrost tbf

cloud ibex
#

unrelated to the conversation at hand but i wanted to check if it actually gets darker during a new moon, found someone asking on quora and one of the first replies is someone going off saying shit like "you have OBVIOUSLY not had to walk alone at night in the mountains, it is SUICIDAL to even try"

#

like yeah mf that's why they asked

split mortar
cloud ibex
#

just answer the question you nerd

fading helm
hybrid barn
#

Y'know, I had a small series of thoughts that led to this, so it might seem a bit random, but I wonder what Xeroc thinks or would think of of Providence, and her whole thing of scorching the world to ash

dusk laurel
#

Probably negative

fading helm
split mortar
fading helm
#

we dont know if hes evil

#

neutral

#

or good

dusk laurel
fading helm
#

he probably wouldnt like it tho because if he wanted he could do so himself

dusk laurel
fading helm
split mortar
#

We don’t know but with what he says in the tooltips of rock and terminus it seems like the guy has devoted his existence to protect the world from shit like fovos and noxus

hybrid barn
fading helm
gritty kraken
cloud ibex
#

and another reply is rambling about how they want the nights to be darker but people disagree because they think it'll make more robberies happen even though most robberies apparently happen during the day??? brother they just asked if it's darker during a new moon than other moon phases we don't care

split mortar
dusk laurel
#

Moon Lord and other outside threats are a bigger issue than Yharim, I'm sorry

split mortar
fading helm
dusk laurel
split mortar
fading helm
#

and outside threats are what

split mortar
fading helm
#

ok besides noxus

dusk laurel
#

Moon Lord beat the crap out of the dragons

split mortar
#

Noxus alone can probably end the world

fading helm
#

tho i have to say i didnt know that noxus was actually doing stuff

dusk laurel
#

Before it got weakened

fading helm
#

i tought he was just sleeping rn

fading helm

#

Also, I don't remember hearing about that, but I think I remember something similar, where the reason Xeroc didn't go to kill DoG was because if he did, then Noxus would probably be alerted and go further into hiding

fading helm
dusk laurel
#

Seeing as though Noxus has had some sort of presence since the Draconic Era [Ceaseless]

fading helm
#

noxus i think its the only one

fading helm
#

wait the world is named terraria

dusk laurel
#

Earth isn't the name of the planet

split mortar
#

Yes

cloud ibex
#

the planet is named Terraria

#

the continent you play on is named <World Name>

fading helm
#

back to the point it has been 1000 years and xeroc is still chasing after noxus he is a bum in my books FallWithinMyCalculations

dusk laurel
#

The continent only has a title afaik

#

"The Heartlands"

split mortar

(I prefer ceis headcanon if heartlands)

I missed a lot dang

fading helm

#

Think so

dusk laurel
#

Yeah

#

Oh yeah

split mortar
#

Keep in mind crystals are rare as fuck so a city is quite beeg

dusk laurel
#

Also another city of scholars iirc

fading helm
#

Did yharim burn them down

#

or did they get burn down by other sources

split mortar
#

Don’t think we know if they have been or not

dusk laurel
#

What got burnt down

fading helm
#

well destroyed

fading helm
#

I would be really surprised

dusk laurel
#

They aren't mentioned yet

if they are still alive

is that info right

split mortar

Could be correct

fading helm

Could be wrong

Also includes the fact that it could be part of a whole species

The enchant system

If the theory is true, I wonder what the strength of a fully grown Deus to be

hybrid barn

Alright, third random question, because I was kind of interested:

Given that Yharim's kind of just in a depressive state at the moment, staying up in the Dragon Aerie and watching you tear apart both his allies and his enemies, do you guys think he'd get back into action if he learned about Xeroc?

split mortar
fading helm
spring helm
#

He already knows

dusk laurel
#

He knows yeah

hybrid barn
#

Wait, he does? Honestly, I thought the whole idea is that no one knew about him

dusk laurel
#

Yharim already knows the futility of challenging Xeroc

fading helm
#

I think that he means if xeroc just appeared outside

split mortar
#

He says draedons machines are nothing to his power

fading helm
#

of his house

#

one day

dusk laurel
#

Exo mechs lore whisper

like more i can count with my hands

dusk laurel
#

1 billion lions is a lot of lions

spring helm
#

Xeroc may be The Strongest but the gap ain’t that big

dusk laurel
#

Yeah

fading helm
#

the gap is big

#

idk if 50x big

#

but its very big

#

like 5 yharims stand no chance

split mortar
#

(Xeroc is also at the ceiling of how strong you can get iirc)

fading helm
#

now 6 yharims

spring helm
#

And we know this because the Terrarian won’t get much stronger post-Yharim

fading helm
#

might be a different story

dusk laurel
#

Xeroc can like beam Yharim from a distance

hot valve
#

Considering what I’ve seen reb describe, yharim and Xeroc gap is like BIG

fading helm
split mortar
#

Yharim when Xeroc drags the actual fucking sun into the fight

spring helm
#

But can Clorox beat the Yhamehameha?

dusk laurel

#

Not enough that Xeroc one taps yharim but iirc it’s a relatively short fight

fading helm
#

well maybe if this sun

#

is like

dusk laurel
fading helm
#

really small

split mortar
dusk laurel
#

The sun is not small like other stars in Cal

fading helm
hybrid barn
#

Apparently the sun is a ball of primordial light or something, so he might

dusk laurel
fading helm
fading helm
#

i really think that he can go even with xeroc

dusk laurel
#

Yharim is still melee

split mortar
#

^

fading helm
#

dont like

#

70% melee weapons

#

got a range attack

spring helm

“And here’s something new.

YHARIM BLUE!!!!!”

Xeroc also has over 800 years of training I think

hot valve
#

Have gods really been around that long?

fading helm
split mortar
spring helm
#

Yes

fading helm
#

if he is just that much stronger

#

than everyone else

dusk laurel
spring helm
split mortar

#

I figured the crusade wouldn’t have been that long after the start of gods but I suppose that makes sense actually

light linden

I still find it bs how we'll never get to kill xeroc

ik why

but still

i really do

Was that confirmed?
