Im not evil cuz i said so now go back to work

untold oracle
#

Greed will be the downfall of humanity

hushed geyser
#

Committing horrible acts for selfish reason is arguably worse than doing it for no reason

warm gull
#

slavery is not an objective evil because again, objective evil does not exist. But I still believe that anyone who practices it deserves to suffer and die

hushed geyser
#

Objective evil can't exist because everyone has different morals and thus some believe what they are doing is for the greater good, even if it is horrible

deft vessel
#

Or the tought that slaves are objects and they now have the right to use them as such

warm gull
#

objective evil cannot exist because nothing is really objective in the first place

hushed geyser
#

The only thing that would be objective is you existing

warm gull
#

that isn't objective

green bay
#

It kinda is

#

You cant say i dont exist

#

Cuz thats bot true

hushed geyser
#

From my point of view me existing is objective

#

That's what I meant

if one of you never spoke on discord again, I would have no idea whether or not you existed anymore from my perspective, therefore making your existence subjectively ambiguous to myself.

xeroc here is not at all accurate to how xeroc talks in game but idc i prefer chill stoner xeroc

untold oracle

Yeah it is

the Stranger repeatedly and consistently shows that they do not give a shit about status or titles or the like

Also stoner Xeroc cool as hell

yk unless it was important

cause y'know they're a god and all that

discworld has permanently imprinted itself into my cerebral cortex and now i love giving characters special ways of writing their speech to differentiate them from everyone else

#

xeroc has the "chapters", the Stranger always speaks in all caps, draedon basically speaks in java

untold oracle

Yeah chapters

split mortar

I could prolly also include different ways of speech

the start of the SCal chapter was already kinda hard for me to visualize in my head

devout grotto

I really should try writing again clueless

untold oracle
#

You should

jaunty niche
#

The lore item of anahita says:

Elementals such as her pose a grave threat to all those around them. Other Elementals are no exception.

split mortar
#

For once yharim is correct

#

Except for silva

jaunty niche
untold oracle
#

They seek domain expansion

split mortar
#

Well they want to spread their domain

And I doubt spreading earth is going to go well for water animals

#

Or whatever sand is trying to do

jaunty niche
#

It's so wierd if they threat all the creatures

devout grotto
# untold oracle You should

Kinda got inspired to write something with Amatsumara and Kagura (essentially their miko, may change the name tho) because of this

split mortar

#

@devout grotto Hey, your and mine nicknames mean the opposite

devout grotto
#

Oooo nice

👀

jaunty niche
jaunty niche
split mortar
#

The theme of life is well

Being alive

So spreading her domain actively makes more things live

untold oracle
#

Also Silva is a goddess now

split mortar
#

And a elemental

But yeah

Silva is the exception I imagine to most elemental rules

jaunty niche
#

The whole lore of anahita is this:

Although she claims dominion over all the world's oceans, in truth she is a recluse of the deep.
Elementals such as her pose a grave threat to all those around them. Other Elementals are no exception.
Anahita was driven from her home in the Abyss by Silva's encroaching greenery.
Accounts vary as to the majestic beast at her side. Some claim Anahita summoned the Leviathan herself.Regardless of what you believe, they are inseparable even in death.
Such stalwart loyalty! It reminds me of Yharon.

#

Anahita is driven away anyways

untold oracle
#

Yeah she lived in abyss

#

Then Silva became her roommate but she couldn’t stand her so she left

jaunty niche
#

silva did drive away anahita

split mortar
jaunty niche
#

I'm just curious about the grave threat, you are not in grave threat just because of a vegetable roommate... who maybe also lack of boundaries

cloud ibex
#

imagining silva going "hiiiii!!!!!!!!! hello!!!!!!!!!!!! hiiiiii!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" as her mutilated corpse drifts down towards the bottom

dusk laurel
split mortar
#

Silva may not

cloud ibex
#

and anahita's just like "oh my fucking lord you have got to be shitting me"

split mortar
#

But

#

How is anahita meant to know

untold oracle
dusk laurel
#

I like the idea of Silva being really, really annoying to the other elementals

hoary berry
#

clingy best friend (she wants the best for you but doesn't know how to show it)

cloud ibex
#

she's almost insufferably friendly to everyone but the other elementals hate each other

jaunty niche
untold oracle
dusk laurel
#

I mean

#

Life cannot exist without the other 4

#

So it makes sense

untold oracle
#

That’s officially my headcanon now

jaunty niche
#

~~ really? life can not exist without even brimstone? ~~

cloud ibex
#

all the other elementals going "I FUCKING HATE YOU AND I HOPE YOU DIE" while silva's going ":D"

dusk laurel

#

are there any weapons that just scream 'Silva would use this' (aside from the grax line)

hoary berry

in my brain axe of regrowth is part of the grax line

dusk laurel
#

Azafurians

#

No

split mortar
jaunty niche
#

After the Brimstone Elemental became dormant, the forgemasters of Azafure used clockwork and crystal to bind the powers of an elemental to a mechanical body. While formidable, it seems the dream of creating a true replacement for an elemental died unfulfilled with Azafure itself.

#

Also her internal name is "Horse", wierd

visual bane
#

remember when earth elemental was a horse...

jaunty niche
#

Oh no, the sand elemental is...

visual bane
#

i wasn't there but did anyone genuinely remember

split mortar
#

Think it’s from the same thing as eggman pissing on the moon

so yes it's from the same people as eggman pissing on the moon

how inaccurate is it to say Desert Scourge is a "worm"

summer rover

The bestiary calls it a sea serpent

It’s some kind of lizard worm semi aquatic thing

lizard...?thonk

It's a reptile

An amphibious one

#

there are basilisks in vanilla hardmode desert. are they relative?

Basilisks are Draconic Offshoots

okay...

Dragonfolly bestiary entry

Wait no

#

The Yharim whisper

#

Not the bestiary entry

jaunty niche
#

Near the close of the Draconic Era, there are records of the "impure" Dragon species.
Wyverns, basilisks, Pigrons and the like are documented. Though none are sure how exactly they came to be.HDfailure

river python
#

Wyverns have blood of dragon?

split mortar
#

Yes

#

Vetrasyl

#

Offshoot of them

river python
#

I thought only "Abysal Wyrms", "Fishrons" and DragonFollys are impure dragons

#

I didn't know that wyverns too

split mortar
#

Well now you know

river python
#

Is another auric dragon alive?

Yharon doesn't count

Oh

Yep

river python
#

Jared is stronger than Noxus?

split mortar
#

jared is weaker then yharim

#

But above scal

river python
#

Well, we don't know so much about Noxus

dusk laurel
split mortar
#

Noxus may be capable of more destruction then even xeroc iirc

And will be after yharim in progression

river python
#

The final boss who will be? (Not counting superbosses)

cloud ibex
#

yharim

river python
#

Okay

#

I heard that Yharim is the next boss, is that real?

dusk laurel
#

Yes

#

Not anytime soon

split mortar
#

Yharim (final boss)

Noxus (first superboss)

Xeroc (last superboss)

split mortar

light linden

I kinda don't want a Xeroc fight

river python
#

So the Calamity Mod? Is near to end?

light linden
#

it feels pointless knowing we can't win

dusk laurel
#

No

river python
#

Thats so sad

#

😦

dusk laurel
#

Calamity still has many years

#

Updates don't come that quickly

river python
#

Oh

#

So how much to Yharim to release? I heard that Yharim will be uploaded in two years in 2021

dusk laurel
#

There are many, many things planned to be done before Yharim

#

Release dates are not a thing done by Calamity

split mortar
#

Sunken sea overhaul
Brimstone crags overhaul
Astral overhaul
Profaned biome
Distortion

#

I think that’s the general major updates

dusk laurel
#

Profaned is likely coming with the Crags

#

Or before

split mortar
#

Ah

river python
#

Before yharim we could craft the exo-auric armor i thought

split mortar
#

Nah
We get just Exo armour from exos

river python
#

The armor of Yharim is the exo-auric amor

split mortar
#

Yea

dusk laurel
#

We don't get it

split mortar
#

But we can’t use it

river python
#

Why not?

split mortar
#

Due to it being able to reject us

And being like twice as big as us

river python
#

We have fragments of the soul of Yharon

#

Oh

split mortar
#

Yharims armour still has the reject ability auric ore does

dusk laurel
#

Major and minor updates afaik
Sunken -> Acid Rain -> Crags -> Astral -> Distortion -> Aerie

split mortar
#

Oh yeah acid rain

dusk laurel
#

Also these updates come with a lot of other things in them

split mortar
#

#

By the time we get to like astral the game would be vastly different

dusk laurel
split mortar
#

Yea

river python
#

The mods can make the map more huge?

split mortar
snow mountain
#

no, just subworlds

dusk laurel
#

They can but

river python
#

Hmm

split mortar
#

It would fuck up world gen

snow mountain
#

like really gunk up world gen

dusk laurel
#

Generally it causes issues and makes cross-mod compatibility way harder

river python
#

Subworld library (the mod that is used to support the Wotg) is so bug in MP

split mortar
#

They would like to make their own subworld thing instead

river python
#

I hope

dusk laurel

The Cal devs plan to make their own

aka astral thought

light linden
#

for context btw

#

I'm tryna figure out a name for my add-on's astral infection boss

#

and lore wise they're kinda like the center of the hive mind

mighty zenith
#

hm

#

Astrum Imperio

light linden
#

albeit anyone who knew the boss's backstory would call them a dumbass

split mortar
#

Sapient being who let themselves be consumed iirc

#

So cosmic bliss trope

light linden
#

basically it was someone who willingly got infected to attempt to take control of the infection

split mortar
#

Oh

#

Not cosmic bliss

light linden
#

they failed obviously

#

and the infection used their sentient brain to strengthen the hive mind

dusk laurel
#

Astrum Usurpator?

split mortar

I'm almost suggesting Celestial Sapiens

what does usurpator mean?

rebecca sentient beings have only been said to be immune to the infection from just being in the biome right?

#

My interpretation is that the Astral Infection normally cannot infect anyone, however increased concentrations of it in someone's body is still harmful. This is why the debuff exists

light linden
#

I started a playthrough but then I heard a big update was coming so I stopped it

spare pier
#

Were someone to be blasted with enough of it, they'd be assimilated

light linden
#

oh also another thing about them I should prolly mention

split mortar
#

So the more astral mana on someone the more potent cosmic secrets it can give

light linden
#

the boss's goal is to start turning the infection into a black hole

spare pier
#

I'm wondering if I explain to people how the Infection works

light linden
#

likely non canon to whatever black holes are in the base mod

spare pier
#

It's really fucking simple so

light linden
#

but still

split mortar
#

Don’t we already know clueless

spare pier
#

Because I think it's interesting to see what people come up with

split mortar
#

Not like there’s anything big enough to cause them

#

yet

light linden
#

in my add-on they're the end stage of astral infection

spare pier
#

I mean, chances are a black hole exists somewhere in the universe

#

And Draedon maybe observed or theorized about them

light linden
#

actually rebecca

split mortar
#

It’s just gravity so unless gravity is different then it’s theoretically possible

spare pier
#

But I still think it's way more interesting to leave it entirely blank to see what people come up with as their version of a black hole in Cal

light linden
#

are neutron stars canon?

split mortar
#

Irl Stars may not be canon so maybe not in the way we know them

spare pier
#

Maybe an equivalent, but not like they exist irl

light linden
spare pier
#

No I mean

#

Not like they might be irl

light linden
#

OH

#

sorry

split mortar
#

Maybe a normal star but it’s comprised of gravity magic (gravity dragon exists so there is the chance of that) and it results in it having comical gravity levels of sillies but idk just theory

light linden
#

I was thinking about a sentry for my add-on based on neutron stars and their magnetic fields but then realized idk if those even exist in calamity

light linden

I was providing context

split mortar
dusk laurel
visual kiln
#

and immediately thought "hmmmmmmm what if the distortion were the inside of a gravastar"

split mortar
#

You can give yourself up

Or if there’s too much astral mana on you then it will tell secrets not even you know and so you get assimilated anyways

split mortar
pliant ruin
#

Honestly like this approach much more

#

It makes astral seem like more of a threat

split mortar
#

Yeah

pliant ruin
#

And i dig the psychological approach to it

mighty zenith
visual kiln
#

what if astral were worshipped as a jesus figure by ppl who worship stars

split mortar
#

Then uh

They prob get infected

visual kiln
#

true

#

:3

dusk laurel
#

Serves them right

split mortar
visual kiln
#

anyway distortion being inside a gravastar goes hard imo

#

plumg

pliant ruin
#

I mean, the fact that rather than it bruteforcing its infection in

#

It tells you of things and secrets that slowly convince you to give up yourself for it

#

That's pretty psychological

split mortar
#

True

#

Also makes it seem much more eldritch

split mortar
spare pier
#

More AI could just mean

#

More voices in your head

pliant ruin
#

I like to think that if you leave enough astral infection on you, even if a small amount, it'll eventually get to your head, and after that perhaps the victim will intentionally seek out to be infected further
Basically like... you get these little whispers on your head, and you desperately want to understand what they mean, or how to get rid of them, so you infect yourself further in hopes of doing that, and further, and further... and before you notice you're assimilated

split mortar
#

I imagine sapient beings don’t have the urge to re infect after a small bit of exposure that’s undone

Since we can eat fruit from there and not be nuked

Stromweacer prob jumps us though

mighty zenith

weaver is meant to be an apex predator so yeah im pretty sure it attacks us first

Bloody spine for summoning brain makes less sense than worm food for eow

Ah okay

hybrid barn

#

But isn't the entire place bloody lol

mighty zenith
#

i feel like it'd smell you first

#

also its a BRAIN
how does it SMELL

hybrid barn
#

Ehhh, fair

split mortar
hybrid barn
hoary cape
split mortar
#

Inside the brain there’s a heart with an eye inside that has an ear inside that has a nose inside

mighty zenith
#

maybe

hoary cape
#

The creepers act as it's nose

mighty zenith
#

hell the brain could just be like a fuckin
armor for it

hoary cape
#

Secretly the brain of Cthulhu is actually the nose of Cthulhu

mighty zenith
#

i like to imagine the actual brain is a tiny little thing inside it and the actual cerebrum is just a shell

split mortar
#

I feel like some of h the us may be quotes channel worthy

dusk laurel
#

I've heard of a theory that the shadow orbs are EoW's eggs

split mortar
#

Isn’t that a vanilla theory

hybrid barn
mighty zenith
#

EoW hatching an egg and a fucking

#

musket pops out

dusk laurel
#

Yep

split mortar
hoary cape
#

Maybe crimson hearts are like actually the brains heart and it's mad you broke three of them

dusk laurel
#

They hide great treasure

hoary cape
#

Some of h the us is a legendary quote

split mortar
hybrid barn
split mortar
#

No y’all shall not know the quote channel

It’s super secret :)

hoary cape
mighty zenith
#

the real cthulhu looks like marvin the martian

hoary cape
#

The real Cthulhu is the friends we made a long the way

mighty zenith
#

random shit EoW stole from people it killed

split mortar
mighty zenith
#

and covered up like spiders do with silk

hoary cape
#

Me when I get 3 muskets in a row when I am not a ranger

split mortar
#

lol

#

Lmao

thick slate
#

you should always be ranger

#

wrong answer

mighty zenith
#

actually looking at the stuff you get from the orbs

split mortar
#

Always play multi class

mighty zenith
#

its stuff that adventurers could have used to try and kill eow

hoary cape
mighty zenith
#

only to die horribly cause of main character syndrome

hoary cape
#

They didn't have plot armor

mighty zenith
#

eater eats them and coughs up the weapons (not tasty)

split mortar
mighty zenith
#

you know

#

i didnt wanna go there

hoary cape
#

Eggs

mighty zenith
#

but yeah

hoary cape
#

Not poop

#

It just likes giving its children toys

split mortar
#

Damn gotta love the gun that evolves into rotten worm

hoary cape
#

When they hatch

mighty zenith
#

not digested stuff he had to get rid of somehow

hoary cape
#

It's a toy for when they are born

#

Maybe eater of souls are baby eater of worlds

mighty zenith
#

eaters of souls with guns

#

terrifying

split mortar
#

Gotta love giving guns to children
Child support must be brutal in the corruption then

hoary cape
#

Both thought eater of souls are baby eow

mighty zenith
#

where they lose the ability to fly upon growing/mating

hoary cape
#

Yes

#

What does that make hive mind though in relation

mighty zenith
#

so it goes eater of souls > either devourer or corruptor depending on if it mated > world feeder > eater

split mortar
mighty zenith
#

corruptors could be like old eaters of souls

#

they share the spit ability with eater

hoary cape
#

I mean eater of worlds could just be the "queen" which is why it's so much bigger than the rest

mighty zenith
#

i love coming up with bullshit based on things that were definitely not thought through by the devs clueless

hoary cape
#

And souls/devours are based on gender

split mortar
mighty zenith
hoary cape
#

Don't ruin our perfectly reasonable theory with a minor plot hole

split mortar
#

Nah eater of worlds isn’t meant to be battle ready unlike world feeders so while visually more impressive it’s unlikely to win in a fight clueless

mighty zenith
#

well technically eater of worlds has much more health

hoary cape
#

I mean when do you see ant queens fighting

#

They wouldn't stand a chance if they got attacked

mighty zenith
#

maybe eater is just too fat and slow

split mortar
mighty zenith
#

to be as much of a threat as world feeders

hoary cape
#

Termite queens are fat and slow

#

They ain't doing anything to fight if an enemy got in past the guards

#

World feeders are just adult devourers clearly

split mortar
#

Well yeah in nature it’s easier to play summoner then melee

hoary cape
mighty zenith
#

devourers could be like ant majors while world feeders are supermajors

#

cannon fodder and more powerful cannon fodder

hoary cape
#

The question is what is hive mind in all of this

#

Because it's got to be connected somehow

split mortar
#

It isn’t I’m pretty sure

mighty zenith
#

my crack theory is that the hive mind is a literal hive

#

which grows eaters and devourers inside it

#

(which is why its able to spawn them on a whim)

#

(they are literally growing inside it as it fights)

split mortar
#

What’s the lore significance of this

mighty zenith
#

goober name

#

extremely goober name

hoary cape
#

Hive mind is the hive mind

#

What's the strongest corruption entity

split mortar
#

Hive mind

mighty zenith
#

pretty sure its hive mind, based on stats alone

split mortar
#

Eater of worlds then hive mind

hoary cape
#

Hive mind controls the entire corruption clearly

split mortar
hoary cape
#

Who knew releasing more godly essence would immediately make the corruption stronger

hybrid barn
#

Personally, I feel like devourers and their variants are produced by the hive mind, while eaters are produced by dominant devourers like EoW

#

It could kind of make sense, an EoW just growing to a point where segments of their body occasionally split off on their own and become separate enemies

split mortar
#

Eater of worlds - female
World feeder - male

Totally the case

warm gull
#

one plinkus to rule them all

hoary cape
#

What

heavy ermine
#

I’m making a massive lore book, with cool art. So for the first 3 bosses, can we agree there power levels are somewhat the same, like king slime through eye of Cthulhu?

#

I feel like WHEN you fight them is a good indication of how strong they are

hybrid barn
heavy ermine
#

Only desert scourge would be in there, the evil bosses are obviously stronger

hybrid barn
#

Then yeah, that sounds good!

heavy ermine
#

What about there actual power level, would it be fair to say king slime is house level

spare pier
hybrid barn
spare pier
#

I think there is like

heavy ermine
#

Just making sure some dumb ass said Yharim was house level…

spare pier
#

Literally one case in the entire Mod where the stats of an enemy do not directly reflect how strong they actually are

#

Which is Eidolon Wyrms

heavy ermine
#

Crabulon is like

#

When do you fight him

#

I fought it post evil bosses, I forgot when you normally fight it

hybrid barn
spare pier
# spare pier Which is Eidolon Wyrms

They have a shit ton of stats but the fact is that this thing would probably get stomped by a bunch of stuff tiers earlier because it just doesn't have a decent kit of abilities

heavy ermine
#

How strong. Crab

#

Also here my lore book art lol

split mortar
split mortar
heavy ermine
#

Is it post evil bosses or before

split mortar
#

But after eye

heavy ermine
#

So it would be like, big house level, that makes sense, considering the massive extendable claws and spore attacks

split mortar
#

Slime god can solo a small ish army if you want to know where slime god stands

hybrid barn
heavy ermine
#

A “small army” is kind of cap depending on what army

hybrid barn
#

Like, maybe a goblin army

split mortar
heavy ermine
#

Cause it doesn’t have a mind, it’s possessed half the brain attacks won’t work

heavy ermine
#

It’s not even close

#

Not even like a small chance

hybrid barn
heavy ermine
#

Like king slime could arguably kill half that army

#

And if this is on infernal difficulty the ninja is assassinating all the guys too lol

heavy ermine
#

If I had to scale slime god…

#

At least for right now

split mortar
#

Infernum I don’t think changes how bosses scale?

heavy ermine
split mortar
#

True

#

(Expert revaengence is the canon difficulty if you didn’t know)

heavy ermine
#

But if I were to rank slime gods, it’s definitely post House, it would be like, maybe small town? That might be a reach, but eater of worlds and brain can def destroy a town, so maybe more

#

Skeletron isn’t far above the evil bosses

#

So slime god could probably destroy a big town

split mortar
#

Omni is the powerscaler here btw so ask them shit

heavy ermine
#

I can picture it wreaking havoc in a town

heavy ermine
dusk laurel
#

What

cloud ibex
#

i think it's been mentioned in here before that taking down slime god would require a small army of normal soldiers or something?

cloud ibex
#

what

split mortar
heavy ermine
#

A small army of soldiers is like

#

Pretty pathetic compared to a literal eldritch slime god

cloud ibex
#

i mean yeah SG isn't exactly eldritch

heavy ermine
#

We all agreed king slime could destroy a small house

#

If king slime can do that what can slime god do

split mortar
#

Slime god was potentially a femboy pre ascension

cloud ibex
#

they're just some mf who killed a hungry hungry dragon and turned into a slime

heavy ermine
split mortar
cloud ibex
#

good for them, good for them

heavy ermine
split mortar
#

Like gods are strong

But the actual eldritch shit is astral infection and distortion and fovos

heavy ermine
split mortar
#

That we know of

cloud ibex
#

the weakest one we see yeah

heavy ermine
#

He’s a coward too, making his power level even harder to gauge

split mortar
#

There was hundreds to possibly thousands of gods

heavy ermine
#

But, I don’t think it’s a far fetch to say he’s town level considering when you fight him
And the bosses below him, his abilities, etc etc etc

split mortar
#

Deus is town level iirc

heavy ermine
#

Like if he sets off the 2 paladins, a small town is done for

split mortar
#

Though on the higher end

warm gull
#

slimeboy femgod

heavy ermine
#

Like imagine just chilling, and a massive fucking purple creature with tendrils eats your face off and destroys the entire block

split mortar
#

Which would put deus at like

4-5 megaton nuke level?

heavy ermine
#

Haven’t thought that far

#

Come back to me in like 3 days and I’ll have an answer

frozen zodiac
#

Deus doesn't actively fight anyone though right

split mortar
#

It’s one of the few things that can be scaled since it has a feat of throwing a meteor

heavy ermine
#

Wall of flesh is almost quite literally impossible to gauge considering his niche ass abilities

frozen zodiac
#

they just watch over the infection until the signal appears

split mortar
heavy ermine
frozen zodiac
#

i meant that it stays more passive compared to the other infections

heavy ermine
#

A decent fucking meteor

#

Hitting the ground, is actual death

#

For anything sentient

#

Like that’s pretty powerful

split mortar
#

Yharim without armour could tank it

heavy ermine
#

Chat let’s start talking about the one character I know nothing about

#

Yharim

split mortar
frozen zodiac
#

oh i was right the astral doesnt spread to nearby blocks

heavy ermine
#

How strong is he

#

He’s the final boss of the game

#

We went from house level king slime

#

To

#

Yharim

#

What’s his “ranking”

split mortar
#

Above scal who is much stronger then storm weaver who causes a city level event

heavy ermine
#

If it’s universal I’m killing myslef

split mortar
#

He is just like

High city level

split mortar
#

Also known as stronger then any nuke we have on earth

heavy ermine
#

That’s word

#

Worse*

split mortar
#

How

frozen zodiac
#

Draedon is a higher level than him right because his whole goal is a search for higher knowledge

heavy ermine
#

That. Was way worse than anything you could have said, CITY?!

#

CITY?!

#

DUDE DESTROYER COULD DESTROY A CITY, YHARIM?! WHAT

#

or maybe the final boss is just that weak

#

Idk

split mortar
#

The highest feat in the verse is scal vaporising a sea in a unknown amount of time

Which is like low country

#

There may be higher feats but they cant be scaled

heavy ermine
#

I’m pretty sure that health bar is a shield though

split mortar
heavy ermine
#

Like Calamitas destroyed Ilmeris when she was like, younger

#

She’s obviously grown stronger

#

Since then

split mortar
#

Eh
Could be skill
She is already above every being but yharim to her perspective why grow more

#

We know she grew in skill

#

And was already post yharon strong

heavy ermine
#

Pre-Ilmeris downfall, Calamitas is like, evil boss 1 level strong

heavy ermine
#

That might be a reach..

#

Okay I mean like, slime god, maybe

split mortar
#

She was above devourer of gods back then

heavy ermine
#

How does child Calamitas scale over herself

heavy ermine
#

Dog, is literally the scourge of the universe, he could destroy bbg at that time

dusk laurel
#

No?

split mortar
heavy ermine
#

I give up

#

All I know is I got the first few bosses power levels right

split mortar
#

Dog has a huge ego you just fell for the guy boasting himself up

heavy ermine
#

So that’s a start

hoary cape
#

Dog loves telling people they have skill issues when he is the one with the skill issue

heavy ermine
#

Saying he’s small town, is like saying he’s equivalent to eater of worlds

split mortar
hoary cape
#

No one said dog wasn't strong

#

But cal is stronger

heavy ermine
#

Like don’t fuck with DoG, this guy can spawn portals literally anywhere

split mortar
#

Yeah dog is busted

Just that city level starts at 6 megatons and goes up to like 100

heavy ermine
#

younger Calamitas?

#

Pre-ilmeris downfall? That’s kind of a reach

spare pier
#

Probably

dusk laurel
split mortar
#

She was above every god

And shakidou the god of space is above dog

#

I think

spare pier
#

Calamitas has a different kind of power progression

split mortar
#

It’s more so skill iirc

#

Not raw power

heavy ermine
#

Calamitas has 1 feat from when she was younger, destroying Ilmeris, which obviously she has grown and gotten stronger since then

spare pier
#

Yeah, like I very much consider her general power level didn't change too much over the years

#

What did is her control over it

heavy ermine
#

But at least somewhat

spare pier
#

She can do more intricate stuff and all

#

While when she was young she just

heavy ermine
#

Her powers hinge off pent up rage

spare pier
#

"Fuck you, fire blast"

heavy ermine
#

So her current power level when you fight her is totally bloated

#

Like the game paints pretty ugly pictures of how fucking mad she is

split mortar
#

Yeah that comes with aging but she was a absolute novice at magic so any skill would help drastically more

spare pier
heavy ermine
#

Also chat

#

Some NPC’s

#

Give lore

#

In this game, if you. Put them in the right spots

spare pier
#

I think their power lands between Yharon and Yharim, I don't really know where exactly. Like

#

They were the strongest God during the Deific Era besides Xeroc

split mortar
heavy ermine
#

Yharim’s power level also sounds blown out of proportion, does he actually have confirmed attacks able to destroy an entire nation

spare pier
#

But I think saying they were as strong as Yharim is a bit of a reach

heavy ermine
#

If there was a boss fight

#

I would believe more

split mortar
heavy ermine
#

But that’s not out yet

#

If it’s like a sword duel

spare pier
heavy ermine
#

For the boss fight

spare pier
#

A REALLY good point hdflr

heavy ermine
#

Then yharim is strong and skilled

#

But continental is a stretch. That’s like calling the terrarian continental

#

This is hinging off the fact he doesn’t have op HAX

#

So I’m asking

dusk laurel
#

Who said Yharim was continental

heavy ermine
#

What hax he got

split mortar
spare pier
#

Omni made a few calculations and I very much agree with his stuff

#

Which puts Yharim roughly at island iirc

heavy ermine
#

The exo mech’s are the epicenter of possible technology, the exo mechs could fuck over almost anybody

split mortar
#

Oh whar, swear he says yharim is high city

heavy ermine
#

It’s a 3 v 1 too

spare pier
#

That's how strong I think Yharim is HDfailure

#

Because I very much do a basically 1:1 scale to One Piece

#

Kaido, which is nearly the peak of power in One Piece, is around there

eager bluff
#

omni ended up taking the higher end of feat stuff so im not positive what yharims would be

#

scal is around country level i believe

split mortar
eager bluff
#

i mean technically

#

considering most countries are on like one island

spare pier
#

One Piece's scaling is fucked because Oda one day decided to make a character just split a continent in half

split mortar
heavy ermine
#

Cause Calamitas in my opinion, is near planetary. Hax wise, she was able to pretty easily destroy a town in her younger days, her at full power plus the rage boost with her new magic abilities makes sense

#

Afk

split mortar
#

Yeah that would fuck it up

eager bluff
spare pier
#

But, considering what I believe is what he actually intended because ||Bajrang Gun is literally the size of a fucking island and it's Luffy's strongest move||

heavy ermine
spare pier
eager bluff
#

scal at her absolute peak would be like continent level MAYBE

heavy ermine
#

If we assume Ilmeris was like, how it was described, an insane kingdom

spare pier
#

And also you say "pretty easily", yeah because no one in Ilmeris is capable of standing up to her

heavy ermine
#

If she destroyed this shit in her teens

split mortar
heavy ermine
#

Not even her prime

spare pier
#

She just

heavy ermine
#

Idk

spare pier
#

Walked into Ilmeris and spent a few weeks burning it

heavy ermine
spare pier
#

Because no one was capable of stopping her

heavy ermine
#

Okay so

#

What is calamitas

split mortar
#

Human

heavy ermine
#

According to y’all

#

No Diddy

#

But like

#

Her strongest hax

cloud ibex
#

she's a human who is strangely good at magic

heavy ermine
#

Against an object is how strong

eager bluff
#

max of large island i believe

#

not positive

heavy ermine
spare pier
#

No????

heavy ermine
#

It’s a massive fucking corrupter wyrm

split mortar
#

She is like high city level since the illmeris thing was a over time project

heavy ermine
#

That thing is destroying an island

gritty kraken
#

It’s just a big earthworm

heavy ermine
#

Not a large one

#

But it will

spare pier
#

Well if you let it carve that thing out for like, 4 months then maybe

eager bluff
#

eow is a glorified pickaxe

split mortar
#

It doesn’t destroy the island sized part of a continent we play on

heavy ermine
#

I find it sus, how eater is liek similar to scal

#

idk, just me

gritty kraken
#

It just burrowing around

spare pier
#

What do you MEAN Eater of Worlds is similar to SCal

heavy ermine
#

The scaling is so broken, prehardmode bosses can be beaten by your average joe

faint plank
#

||-# Lurk ||

heavy ermine
#

Hardmode bosses can destroy maybe a house

spare pier
#

Your character is

split mortar
heavy ermine
#

And post moon lord can destroy an island
