I think it’s from a random floating rock in distortion
dusk laurel
Did dog gave it to him or sumthin
Get what
Cosmilite is from the Distortion
Exotech uses Exo Prisms
spring helm
Well first of all what do you mean by cosmilite vs exotech
Like cosmilite armour vs the armour that the exo mechs have?
Or weaponry made from either?
Because exo technology isn’t exactly one thing so asking cosmilite vs exotech is kind of like asking if steel or electronics is better
real silo
Exos also use some form of cosmilite alloy for their armor

adrenaline (hormone) is indeed canon

Same with being angry

And in fights your adrenaline goes up massively on occasion but then completely disappears after it actually helps you for a bit, and sometimes you get really angry and are able to beat up things even harder than before, but only a little harder and for a short period of time
Ok yeah sure that's probably not canon

Yharim was also an ordinary human
Through a lifetime of training and a little magical help, he became the strongest that any mortal could ever become

remembering how big the calamity weapons get is always funny to me
you walk up to Yharim, this beast of a man twice your height who wields a weapon of similar stature
and you armed with a sword as bigger than the two of you combined

ok im completely not educated on this topic and have barely read any lore beside...
As other said its up to you why, but i mean if you want a more concrete answer to help your imagination: You consume countless of buff consumables, like heart and mana crystals, life fruit, all the shimmer consumables, celesetial onion and more. All these can contribute to your body/mana and general strength
armor, weapons and accessories make up the rest of the bulk
and then finally your skills increase after each battle

untold oracle
Do you guys think the average person is aware of the jungle being a plague death trap
Or are they just ”the place is dangerous”
random mulch
Is that supposed to be p1 or p2
thought about it and maybe phase 1 could have the dull colors with phase 2 getting the glowy bits of resprite DoG
dusk laurel
Do you guys think the average person is aware of the jungle being a plague death...
Probably not, considering the normal jungle is still there
The plague is probably deeper into the underground and not that many people still remain there, if you aren't a Lihzahrd
untold oracle
You can find plague enemies on the surface though
random mulch
ye
dusk laurel
Then they'll know, but people will just avoid the plagued areas

I’m pretty sure the people are aware of something being there but do they know it’s the plague

I can’t tell if this is actually better than with sharp teeth
I mean theyre both gnarly
random mulch
ok here's a horrifying thought
instead of all of them being the same type of tooth, they mimic human teeth layout
with incisors, canines and molars
untold oracle
Like human teeth on it look more unnatural
random mulch

untold oracle
That looks alien
random mulch
ok so which one is worse
untold oracle
I like it
mighty zenith
ok so which one is worse
i like third one most
looks very inconsistent and unnatural
random mulch
honestly i actually do like DoG's resprited first phase, i think it couldve been pushed farther from the "worm boss" look but i still like it
DoG's phase 2 just being current DoG phase 2 but larger is a bit dissapointing, but i get the face needing to match the album art
DoG just having a blank stare is gonna be a bit funny which is why my DoG just has no eyes
devout grotto
Saw a Jungle mention and I finally wanna talk about how I'd handle it in my story 
untold oracle
How do you?
devout grotto
Hmmm
There's at least a large part of it that's fucked over by the Plague
To make killing Queen Bee make sense in my story, the Terrarian ends up in some uninfected zone that's near and infected one and is asked by some locals to kill the one in their area
It's not necessarily the best idea but to the locals, it's one of the best ways for them to not get screwed over as well
Btw it's like a bounty hunt
untold oracle
My jungle is essentially just hide and seek against the plague enemies
I doubt my terrarian even kills queen bee
devout grotto
I guess the Plague has some sort of quarantine zone
In my interpretation at least
untold oracle
Imagine the terror of wandering in the underground jungle and hearing oddly mechanic clicking sounds. You look up and you see bright red eyes on the ceiling
dusk laurel
untold oracle
Okay I think I figured out the jungle chapter
The town has both a food and housing crisis and the terrarian seeks out to find a solution, ending up in the jungle
cloud ibex
Btw it's like a bounty hunt
i had the idea that some of the Stranger's boss fights are requests or bounties from the town npcs
like for example some of them want to set up a village in the desert but they can't since DS is there -> DS boss fight
the Dryad gets concerned about the Crimson/Corruption spreading faster than usual and the creatures acting weird, she asks them to look into it -> Perforators/Hive Mind boss fight
devout grotto
i had the idea that some of the Stranger's boss fights are requests or bounties ...
Oooo nice nice
I think bounty hunts is one of the best ways to deal with boss progression story-wise
untold oracle
I might be a big boring but most of them so far are just being jumped or preemptively taking them down before they can pose a threat to the villagers
river python
who's the most bad being in the Calamity mod lore
river python
we know enough lore about Noxus?
river python
we only know he is the lord of the DoG

Created CV, has control over the Distortion
river python
and maybe the lord of the Storm weaver too, after all DoG and Storm Weaver are the same specie of the distortion
dusk laurel
Nope

Draedon literally says they aren't, and he's a better source than Yharim

DoG was most likely created by noxus instead of being something natural

i don't know what is new or old lore

Omnicide and all

untold oracle
Are jungle spores edible
sleek halo
I mean
worst character
is absolutely Yharim
Providence in theory is worse…
if she ever got close to accomplishing her goal
Yharim got closer to her goal then her
untold oracle
If you are planning a genocide and putting effort in accomplishing it, but you get stopped, does it make you a less evil person?
sleek halo
uhh
Yharim planned
a genocide
and didn’t get stopped
Yeah providence is horrible
but
Providence is a perosn who wishes she could do her goal
Yharim basically did his
and the entire world suffered for it
for a century
untold oracle
I can’t tell if the question was about who did the worst shit or who’s the most twisted in their mind
sleek halo
i mean
it’s still arguable
but yeha provi likely wins
they’re both delusional insane ppl
with goals of mass genocide
provis goals however
as fucked as they are
are in her mind to help ppl
Yharim solely wants to cause pain to gods and their worshippers
and thinks he’s doing a good thing that way
idrk
spare pier
Saying Yharim thinks he's not helping people is kinda insane
sleek halo
Well tbf
we don’t
really have anything to indicate that
at least not as heavily
as providence
spare pier
Read Crabulon's Lore Item
sleek halo
mayb there’s something i have forgoten
but that is also not rly his main focus
his main focus is the genocide of the gods
the helping ppl part is a side part of it
spare pier
Again
sleek halo
for providence it kinda seems like the helping ppl part by the omnicide is the main focus
spare pier
Crabulon's Lore Item
spare pier
Yharim lies about a lot of stuff, but there is no reason for him to lie about why he hates Gods
spare pier
No matter how much personal hatred and vitriol he carries, he still believes he's doing something better for the world
spare pier
And yeah if you're wondering about my take
sleek halo
probably is
but at the least they’re both the absolute just
worst
mindset wise and goals wise
spare pier
Providence is 100% the worst person in the entire story because the only difference between her and Yharim is that he managed to do it
spare pier
Just because she didn't manage to go through with it doesn't make her a better person than Yharim, because even then she still made a lot of bad
sleek halo

y'all think anyone has tried to invade the jungle temple?
Likely, but seeing as the jungle temple is really well fortified and all that
Doubt it went anywhere

I wonder if their are more Lihzahrds like the witch doctor in Calamity
They likely didn't all wear rags like they do now during their heyday

I still imagine yharim has nanomachines in his armour to repair on the go

oh ok

Only Demonshade will be canon, since it's getting moved from Shadowspec
Ashes of Annihilation-related
light linden
makes sense
ngl though
I do like the concept of shadowspec being auric that was corrupted by scal's magic and the energy from exo prisms
actually
can auric even be alloyed?
dusk laurel
Miracle matter I think
untold oracle
can auric even be alloyed?
Mock auric could I think
light linden
iirc miracle matter just uses the energy to stabilize it
light linden
Mock auric could I think
tf is mock auric
dusk laurel
I think they meant mock attunement
untold oracle
Yeah that
untold oracle
tf is mock auric
Putting the soul fragments in to neutralize rejection

tf is mock auric
The auric we make
Auric that can’t reject anything due to dragon soul fragments in it

I wonder what an ancestral species of the Scourges could look like
We know 2 of them are predatory, and the other is a filter-feeder
split mortar
Yeah I think using more then 1 glow looks cool

Maybe the purple could go on the head too
i think the head's detailed enough as-is
brave dew
No i mean instead of the blue
random mulch
intentionally left the main body blue with only the arms having purple
brave dew
Alright
Idk it just felt better with dark purple going with purple glow and light-ish dark purple to go with blue glow

Ooh that is so sick

Kind of just a thought, what if the backs of the fingers had a duller glow across them? I don't know how that'd look in execution, but when I thought of the imagery of him crawling toward you, I thought being able to see the outlines of his hands before the rest of his body could be cool

What is up with the spine trees in crags?
Uh
The necromantic magic from the fight has effected local plant life to look like parts of flesh creatures

Throwing out ideas

Now I'm gonna ask an unanswerable question, how much life existed ever in Terrar...
There is a unique allure to setting loose a synthesized mimicry of prokaryotic life.
If we assume microorganisms are as varied in Calamity as IRL, that's thousands, perhaps tens of thousands, there alone
dusk laurel
I wonder if evolution played out in a similar manor as to real life
Like fish -> amphibians -> reptiles and mammals

my headcanon of the slimes is that they're the simplest possible organism

before the new lore
warped rapids
yea he was like big god
wheat walrus
just some universe light god
yea
pretty sure an amalgam of many light gods actually
and the creation of new lore wasn't really sudden
it had quite the lead-up to
but the idea of xeroc having been a person once I assume wasn't really expected
wasn't there tho, I really only joined when new lore was starting to build up, April 2023, and new lore started in February 2023
I did know Calamity and a bit of lore prior to new lore, and I also knew about new lore being a thing that will happen
I was interested but I think without the new lore thing I wouldn't have been hooked on it much
and I genuinely doubt I would've even bothered to join here in the first place

Wonder what made Providence snap, cuz she couldnt have been all like "i need to kill everyone to achieve peace" from the get go
Did something specific happen for her to go completely scorched earth

Santa made her snap

Who said she didn’t have an entire character arc about erasing the world before ascending?
Also we dunno yet, prob will once we get the yuri diary thing from healer guardian

Anyways, I wonder what DS and AS looked like before their respective seas were desecrated, because they'd still have different environments to evolve in
pliant ruin
Well i don't think AS seems to have been particularly affected by the radioactive waste
it dosen't really scream mutant to me
compared to smth like nuclear toads or nuclear terror per example
hybrid barn
Well that is a good point, maybe it just turned a bit more green to fit in with the water
pliant ruin
I'm gonna go on a guess here since DS's new design hasn't been revealed
BUt i think it'd look about the same
just
more vibrant
Realistically moving from one enviroment to the other isn't really enough to drastically change its appearance beyond some minor changes such as its color becoming duller due to different nutrients and sand covering its body and wounds caused by the scorching or potential competition from things like dune splicers
As i mentioned in #calamity-update-talk , i think it's like a crocodile that lives in a lake in a desert
dusk laurel
DS also only had less than 2 decades to adapt, not nearly enough to evolve
hybrid barn
That could be true...though, I guess that could depend a bit on if there were more predatory creatures like the Great Sand Shark
But you make a fair point, particularly since we know the Desert would've been made a desert maybe just a few decades ago

I do wonder why auric souls don't leave gods when they die, but do leave dragons...is it because their regular souls are too firmly attached to the auric ones

in DBZ power levels, yharim is like 300, noxus is like 500, and xeroc is almost 4000
