I tried to make mine have parallels with her

#

My oc irradiated two-thirds of the continent inhabitable because she tried to clean sulphurous sea

Is she stupid?

Kinda

#

It was mostly negligence

How to clean the sulphurous sea: dynamite

(He also killed goozma)

The edge

Mine is no one because I don't have one

cloud ibex
#

mine managed to get telefragged onto terraria somehow, tries to get the hell out of there and in the process gets so sick of people still talking about yharim and the Crusade that they go to the aerie to beat the shit out of him

devout grotto
#

I have still yet to form a proper origin for my Terrarian

#

But all I have rn is that they're the prophesized hero that was talked about for years some time the Crusade started

brave dew
#

Who's stronger xeroc or nameless deity ?

#

I assume xeroc but creating a black hole is kinda strong ngl

dusk laurel
#

Nameless

devout grotto
#

🅱️ameless

brave dew
#

Damn

cloud ibex
#

ND is, like,

#

biblical God basically

brave dew
#

Can it beat goku ?

dusk laurel
cloud ibex
#

Xeroc is just the god of primordial light

#

very powerful in their own right but they can't really compare to ND

hoary cape
#

Nameless deity is also not even a calamity thing lol

brave dew
#

Yeah i was just curious

wheat walrus
#

current scaling I have for Nameless Deity is Low Complex Multiverse Level (5D), not something I looked into much but I think it makes sense

#

Goku's scaling lowkey all over the place

untold oracle
# brave dew Who's stronger xeroc or nameless deity ?

Xeroc is essentially just a strong being
Nameless Deity is the omnipotent creator god that could reset the entire world if they wish so. The only reason why they give themselves limited stats is because they want to test you in a fair fight

indigo glade
#

But can Goku beat Kira?

wheat walrus
# wheat walrus Goku's scaling lowkey all over the place

at least for Super, you'll have people scaling him anywhere between Universe Level to Boundless; big places like VSBW use Low Multiverse Level scaling, I personally like to stick with Low Complex Multiverse (5D too) because of multiple statements and feats that put Goku (at least end of super anime) beyond time, time is 4D so transcending it is 5D logically

Oh

The Death Note only works on humans, therefore it's useless on Goku

Wait.

I need to read the rules.

"Can Kira kill Goku?" no

He's a Saiyan

Goku is a Saiyan

saiyans when they become super

spare pier
#

No it's an entirely different race

devout grotto
#

Never really got exposed to Dragon Ball lore

brave dew
#

Wait but can the other kira kill goku tho ?

spare pier
#

No

wheat walrus
brave dew
#

Ye

#

Technically goku would just explode and that's it

spare pier
#

Kira can't react to anything Goku does so like

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

brave dew
#

Yeah but kira isnt made for 1v1 combat

#

If he like

spare pier
#

Yeah and we're talking about a 1v1 combat

brave dew
#

Fuck

wheat walrus
#

the way kira's ability works (it causes your entire body's structure to explode, regardless of physical durability) means that kira can blow up goku if he manages to make goku touch anything, but assuming goku is fighting that's gonna be kinda impossible ykno

brave dew
#

But if it wasnt would kira win ?

wheat walrus
spare pier
#

If you're talking specifically "Goku is trying to find Kira" then like, no because Kira's ability is literally an exact counter to this situation and the only person who can break out of it is Hayato exactly because he's the trigger for Bites the Dust

brave dew
#

Sp and tw could probably win too with time stop since their stand can go through body

spare pier
#

And also because he'd be too dumb to do it HDfailure

brave dew
#

Hayato is so goated

light linden

hey is this a bad time rebecca?

brave dew

A bad time

#

Bad time...

tad bime

Time...

And even then Goku would just tank

wheat walrus
brave dew
#

B-but he can go through

wheat walrus
#

what is a roadroller gon do

brave dew
#

And the funny punchy boi

spare pier
#

Stands still have to, y'know, interact with physical mass to deal damage

brave dew
#

They dont have to

spare pier
brave dew
#

Sp can go through bodies

#

Like

#

A ghost

spare pier
#

Yeah and he doesn't do damage

brave dew
#

Cant he just smush his brain

spare pier
#

You do know how Ki works, right? hdflr

brave dew
#

Y-y-yeeaah

spare pier
#

It defends the entire body

#

This includes organ

light linden
brave dew
#

Alright jotaro cant win then

light linden
#

makes sense

wheat walrus
#

also yes goku has been seen countering hit's time-related abilities purely through speed and power, and jiren (who goku now beat) managed to completely destroy hit's time cage, to which vados (pretty sure it was her) acknowledged that jiren transcended time in that point; I think that a being as knowledgeable as an angel would know whether jiren did transcend time with his power or not

so yea time-related abilities might genuinely be useless since Goku would most likely brute force himself out of it

mighty zenith
#

its like minecraft logic

light linden
#

actually I just realized

mighty zenith
#

you can have a bucket of water, you just cant pour it out or else it vaporizes

spare pier
#

I don't know if that specific stuff happens in the Manga but

light linden
#

azafurians prolly invented thermally insulated storage very fast

mighty zenith
#

just great

#

i love super

spare pier
#

The anime is better in the regard that it really doesn't give a shit about Goku being stronger than Beerus HDfailure

brave dew
mighty zenith
#

isnt manga beerus like
constantly stronger than them like every arc

light linden
spare pier
#

I still think it's hilarious that if Super Saiyan Blue didn't exist NONE OF THE PROBLEMS WITH BEERUS' POWER WOULD EXIST

#

If it was just

indigo glade
spare pier
#

God > Ultra Instinct

#

Then it'd be fine

mighty zenith
#

a lot of problems would be fixed by removing super saiyan blue

spare pier
#

But Blue being in the middle fucks shit up so much

indigo glade
#

What does SSB do?

brave dew
#

ND VS Beerus who wins ?

wheat walrus
mighty zenith
spare pier
mighty zenith
#

iirc

spare pier
#

Super Saiyan Blue is that but 50 times stronger

indigo glade
#

Oh.

mighty zenith
#

i dont know why ssb exists

wheat walrus
spare pier
#

And it's been continuously stated in the manga that Goku and Vegeta are not on Beerus' level

mighty zenith
#

the name is stupid, the transformation is boring, it makes the story worse by just existing

spare pier
#

So like

#

Blue fundamentally Does Not Work

mighty zenith
#

and then there's ssb evolved which comes out of nowhere and theres like no reason for it to exist

spare pier
#

Tbh it's really easy to explain that as just

#

Super Saiyan Blue 2

#

Which has a precedent

mighty zenith
#

it was just

"hey goku's gonna become really fucking strong we should give vegeta something" but before they came up with super ego

spare pier
#

Byeah like

#

If Blue didn't exist, even if Goku pulled God Kaioken X20

#

You could still argue that even if it is stronger than Beerus

wheat walrus
wheat walrus
spare pier
#

Jiren also being so fucking strong is also a problem tho yeah

mighty zenith
#

if i had a nickle for every dragon ball character that caught up to the main protagonists by getting an asspull power boost for no reason i'd have two nickles...

spare pier
#

If he was shown to directly overpower God X20

mighty zenith
#

i forgive golden frieza because he at least trained a bit

spare pier
#

Then Ultra Instinct's thing just

#

Wouldn't have worked

#

You can't tell me that Ultra Instinct would give him a powerboost high enough to be able to actually damage Jiren when he was shown to overpower a state of Goku where he is objectively stronger than Beerus

mighty zenith
#

i still think toppo should've been the main threat

spare pier
#

So like, the obvious solution would be to just have Jiren actually struggle there

#

And then Ultra Instinct becomes a much more reliable power source with added bonus which is still able to fight with Jiren

spare pier
#

I think what happened in the anime was the best alternative

#

Dyspo, Toppo and Jiren all being strong with Jiren being the clearly stronger guy

#

Because like, I still think this is something Dragon Ball suffers a lot with

wheat walrus
# spare pier Jiren also being so fucking strong is also a problem tho yeah

to this day there is no complete clarification on what was meant with Jiren being the mortal stronger than GoDs, I'd assume it was just referring to Belmod but I genuinely don't know since in the anime it felt pretty consistent that Jiren was, to an extent greater than not just Belmod, and the whole thing with Mastered Ultra Instinct in the anime genuinely felt like they were going for a narrative where Goku and Jiren are beyond the GoDs currently

spare pier
#

Moro got tantalizingly close of solving this problem but they pushed the Goku Button

spare pier
mighty zenith
#

it really does suck how much dragon ball has turned into the "Goku and sometimes Vegeta show"

wheat walrus
spare pier
#

I think it's been getting better lately with, as I said

#

Moro stuff

mighty zenith
#

the only potential benefit is that toyotaro may actually know how to write gohan and piccolo

#

i dont want a repeat of the buu saga

untold oracle
#

How much does the newest dragon ball powercreep from the original dragon ball

spare pier
#

And like, the next arc is very clearly shaping up to have at least Gohan and Piccolo there too

mighty zenith
#

but like also
give us a movie for the earthlings to do something please 😭

spare pier
#

And also Broly and Granola to a certain extent

#

And hopefully Gotenks

#

Like, I think it's fine to just

wheat walrus
#

Frieza starts Universal War because Kakumei fanmanga thing did something similar gang 😈

spare pier
#

Leave Krillin and Yamcha behind

mighty zenith
#

They've been teasing adult gotenks so much

mighty zenith
spare pier
#

I think a bunch of the OG Dragon Ball characters are kinda just done with besides just being massively powercrept

#

I think all of them just

mighty zenith
#

you'd need to give them some asspull power ups but at that point just leave them behind

spare pier
#

Have complete character arcs

mighty zenith
#

MAYBE give them like a smaller threat to deal with

spare pier
#

There is nothing you can do with them from a character standpoint

mighty zenith
#

super hero showed you can have a db story without goku's involvement and it be pretty good

spare pier
#

ToP was the last hurrah for Kame and Krillin and that's it

mighty zenith
#

tien doing fucking nothing

spare pier
#

I STILL THINK

#

They should've got up to Tien

#

And he'd just go

#

"Nah I'm fine, sorry I don't want to participate"

#

AND THEN THEY ARE MISSING SOMEONE

#

AND THEY BRING BACK FREEZA

#

AND BUU GOES TO THE FUCKING TOURNAMENT

wheat walrus
#

so true

mighty zenith
#

GOD

#

i was so pissed

wheat walrus
#

Buu went asleep right before a tournament twice in a row

mighty zenith
#

they showed a new look for buu actually training

spare pier
#

Like, this would've been 500 times better than blue balling us on Buu fighting AGAIN

mighty zenith
#

and they did fucking nothing with it

#

he got one fight with goku

wheat walrus

this is the most lorecore the chat has ever gotten

It'd both show character growth for Tien and have given us Freeza again so like, nothing would've been changed

#

Anyways yeah

spare pier
#

On another note recently I've been writing some of the Legendary Item tooltips and I believe I cooked with Blossom Flux

manic coral
# mighty zenith isnt manga beerus like constantly stronger than them like every arc

To not keep stuff too off topic but to still respond since I feel a need to, I'll just sum up what I want to say in a single message:

Correct. And also I will say the manga handles SSB a lot better by treating it more like Kaio-ken functionally so SSG gets used FAR more due to SSB's power being inconsistent. And also I'm pretty sure in the manga it's never stated or said anywhere or even implied to be a full-on times fucking FIFTEY power boost. The manga also makes it a lot more clear that Ultra Instinct isn't a powerup, it's a technique. It doesn't make Goku any stronger. The Manga also makes a far better demonstration of Jiren not actually being that much stronger at all than Goku or Vegeta or whatever, he jsut has better technique and uses his pwoer highly effeciently, basically being able to just go from 0 to 100 and back to 0 again in a snap of the fingers.

Tl;dr the manga is better about basically everything narratively and it's kind of imopressive and also giving MUI an aura is stupid and entirely against the point of what it is why did the anime choose it give it an aura it doesnt even look good it's ugly as hell

Anyways I'm going back to editing the tooltip for Pristine Fury that Reb wrote

stark basalt
#

guys can yharim beat goku

spare pier
#

No

manic coral

sign's aura is fine

#

MUI's aura is not

Ah yeah, same! I watched an episode of the re-edit, then I lost interest in that and just decided to wait until the main story comes back

#

And then the second half is Nilou from Genshin Impact

i cant believe this

calamity is ruined

Which, that Nilou has NOTHING TO DO WITH THE CHARACTER hdflr

stark basalt

I mean

#

I just picked Nilou because it means "Nile"

#

And sounded good enough

stark basalt
#

spare pier
#

Otonilou's mean roughly translates to "Sound of the Nile"

#

And by "roughly" I mean "if you translate the two halves of it into different languages" HDfailure

I know two people named propane

Draedon is just a pokemon character name with like 2 letters changed

actually since you're the writer for permafrost stuff could you possibly answer a question for me?

just yeah the horns and ashen skin is a side effect of families who have lived there long enough havign adaptions to the envrionment of the underworld that most dont

could the angler be an orphan due to illmeris being burned?

actually that is something i was kinda thinking of going for

Is the eye of Xeroc unique for Xeroc or a generla PL sigil?

general PL sigil

then again how long ago was the incineration?

at the start of the game, little over a decade

so

I've seen someone with the eye of xeroc tattooed on them

it was on their stomach though

so what ur saying is that angler would have sigma/male in his pronouns section in his discord bio and make funny dark humour jokes (racism

Many such cases.

It's okay he'll grow out of it

Is there a given reason for why Yharon's soul wasn't eaten when he last died, why the gods threw the egg in the lava when they could've just given it to someone else, or why the player can craft stuff with yharon's soul without killing him forever?

hoary cape
#

We don't know the ritual to actually utilize his soul in the same way the gods did

#

Also the gods never threw it in the lava that was their followers

#

They were the ones who tossed yharim into the lava

split mortar
#

Also yharons full soul seems to instantly blip towards the aerie so it’s prob very hard to get

#

And it was good followers so they may have just been idiot and did dumb thing

spare pier
#

That is infact what happens

#

Yharon has a somewhat scuffed control over his own Soul after his death, which allows him to put it back on the Aerie and thus start his rebirth process. To absorb his Soul, one would need to kill Yharon, go to the Aerie and find his egg, and perform the ritual on the egg

#

That's a very big part of why Yharon lasted so long. His Soul was particularly difficult to absorb

ionic fjord
#

But why chuck the egg away?

split mortar
#

I thought it took a decade for the birb to become egg

spare pier
ionic fjord
#

Also would god-king yharim have been on par with Xeratros?

spare pier
#

1 - Frustration
2 - The egg would be respawned in the Aerie soon enough, so it was basically a non-issue to get it back
3 - To mock Yharim

ionic fjord
#

I see

spare pier
split mortar
#

Yeah I know

spare pier
#

So the egg showing up again and the hatching

#

I think the egg spawning is fairly quick, the hatching is what takes so long

split mortar
#

I thought it was that egg appeared after a while then hatches not much time till hatch

spare pier
#

Yharon has a superb amount of control over the Soul but so much over the body

fading helm
#

also surprised no one did the ritual in the egg for 1000 years

spare pier
#

The thing is

#

How would they get to the Aerie?

#

Like, we've already stabilished that getting there isn't as simple as just walking up to it

#

But yes, it does mean Yharon was killed less than 10 years before the God-king attempt

cloud ibex
#

does make me wonder how anyone got a hold of the egg at all if it always reappears in the aerie

Was the old concept of "dragons hoarding gold" an inspiration for the dynamic of auric stuff and dragons?

#

I dunno

#

Auric was a thing for a long time and it was always associated with Yharim

fading helm
#

egg*

spare pier
#

Who is associated with Yharon

#

So

spare pier
sinful adder
#

Then no, but I imagine the parallel formed accidentally after the fact

fading helm
#

cus like to kill yharon

#

that takes quite the effort

sinful adder
#

One of the main things about dragons in fiction is hoarding gold, after all

spare pier
#

Like, yeah the group of Gods who tried to do the God-king stuff got Yharon's Egg, which means they got to the Aerie

ionic fjord
#

Auric Soul is the name for a dragon soul...so Yharim's armor must be crafted with Yharon or possibly a god's essence?

fading helm
#

nah

#

he is just attuned to yharon

#

which makes him auric approved

dusk laurel
#

Auric ore generates after a dragon dies

sinful adder
#

Auric is the special power the dragons had in their souls and also the metal that has that same power

fading helm
ionic fjord
fading helm
#

even if it is then he just used the auric from the dragons that died like 1000 years ago

I wished Auric Ore was there all the time tbf

Hello lore chat

It is my birthday today

Happy birthday

happy birday

hot valve
#

Thank you :)

spare pier
#

If only because I think it's really funny and also very compelling in the sense that you spend the entire game seeing Auric Ore, the strongest in the entire world, just there all the time

#

And then after Yharon you can finally get it

pliant ruin
#

i think that would be cooler than how it is rn ngl

dusk laurel
#

I agree

pliant ruin
#

would be cool storytelling in the sense it'd show how far the player has gotten

spare pier
#

However, there is a very genuine gameplay concern in the sense that it's nearly impossible to balance Auric Rejection for early game

fading helm
#

😭

#

at 1203 bc

#

wait what is the terraria year table

#

is it something like "before xeroc"

spare pier
#

And also because adding Another Underground Hazard on top of a permanent wall for anything you want to do there sounds very annoying

fading helm
#

and "after xeroc"

spare pier
#

Like, I think the wall thing is the actual problem

ionic fjord
#

My current headcannon(that iknusing for my dnd campaign) is that Xeroc is the god of destiny and puppetteered Yharim's entire life to remove the threats to his power, and Yharim, whose catchphrase is 'destiny is for the weak' got depressed when he realized that.
Thoughts?

spare pier
#

Imaigne you're building a hellevator and then

#

Auric Ore Jumpscare

#

And you can't continue making it

fading helm
#

or is that some rando new god i havent heard about

pliant ruin
#

It kinda ends up being a Yharim Yharon situation :p

spare pier
#

It's literally the same pronounciation btw

fading helm
#

yeah but i think he means smth else

#

because zeratros is the dragon of light

ionic fjord
#

Oh I mean the great betrayer? Is that the right one?

spare pier
#

Xeroc

pliant ruin
#

Xeroc is that one

fading helm
#

xeroc?

pliant ruin
#

Zeratros is the dragon

fading helm
#

yeah

ionic fjord
#

Oh

pliant ruin
#

And xeroc is the god of light

fading helm
#

he is the dragon of primordial light tho

#

i mean god

pliant ruin
#

hes also kinda chill

fading helm
#

cap

#

hate that bum

pliant ruin
#

love or hate him cant deny hes kinda chill

fading helm
#

hmm

spare pier
#

Byeah, I think if there was a way of making Auric Ore not obstruct player's for 90% of the game, it'd work very well

#

But if it did then well

#

Yeah kinda stinky

pliant ruin
#

Well i wouldn't say that's really a "headcanon" because it directly conflicts with canon

ionic fjord
fading helm
pliant ruin
#

Like just being objective here

fading helm
#

or an unused god

#

like idk

dusk laurel
ionic fjord
dusk laurel
#

Not being indestructible at previous tiers

pliant ruin
#

Xeroc is the god of primordial light and while his goals are not clear rn it's safe to say he's probably not such a bad guy

gritty kraken
#

hookless terrarian when the cave they’re falling into have auric ores floor

cloud ibex
#

pliant ruin
#

Like at the very least he's not villainous - Maybe morally gray but he's not really like. ⚡ the true villain ⚡

fading helm
#

maybe not completeely

#

like he does what is necessary

#

for the greater good

pliant ruin
#

I don't think he's 100% benevolent but i also dont think hes a bad guy

ionic fjord
pliant ruin
#

yeah

#

smth like that

fading helm
#

that is what I imagine for him

pliant ruin
fading helm
#

just a headcanon

ionic fjord
spare pier
#

Auric Rejection can be circumvented and hell, even have a frankly pitiful damage before Yharon

#

But if it can't be mined then it just becomes one giant rock that you can't do anything about when exploring the UG

ionic fjord
#

Ye

pliant ruin
#

Like in ur campagin or in calamity itself

spare pier
#

Making a hellevator and if it happens to collide with an Auric Ore Vein you just get fucked

ionic fjord
#

My campaign. Though idk if we'll get that option in-game.

pliant ruin
#

Ah ic

#

Yeah cuz i was gonna say ingame uh hes just gonna die

#

but it'd be funny if ur players spared him

spare pier
#

I think the only way a Yharim spare would ever work is if it's Freeza-style

#

Let him live solely so he can live with the shame of losing

spare pier
#

But like, he is specifically looking for a final fight so

ionic fjord
#

I personally am a bit on his side but he seems like someone who wants to be slain so...yeah.

spare pier
#

That wouldn't work unless you were a God

pliant ruin
#

He dosen't want to be slain

#

But he is willing to if it means he fullfills his goals

#

He's quite literally just going for the armstrong approach

ionic fjord
#

Yeah for you to kill xeroc

cloud ibex
#

i wonder if he actually knows just how powerful xeroc is

ionic fjord
cloud ibex
#

cause i feel like if he did he wouldn't even bother trying to convince you because of how big the gap is

pliant ruin
ionic fjord
#

"Xeroc? Oh yeah I already took care of that guy a few days ago."

pliant ruin
#

Because the Xeroc fight is just a friendly spar hdflr

#

You literally go "Oh yea xeroc thats my buddy"

ionic fjord
#

Lol

pliant ruin
#

How to crush yharim's hopes and dreams in one sentence 😭

#

Deserved tbf

ionic fjord
#

We played golf with the golfer a few days back.

cloud ibex
#

"oh yeah i chuffed back some fat darts with them the other day, i can try to get you in contact if you'd like"

ionic fjord
#

Xeroc got a hole in 0

calm patio
cloud ibex
pliant ruin
#

That is the true reason why Yharim started genocide....

#

Xeroc denied his doobie

cloud ibex
#

they aren't naturally advantaged through sheer strength so they still have to actually try

pliant ruin
#

Do u think Xeroc can drop some bars

#

I know permafrost can

ionic fjord
#

Permafrost is the fun unckle we all wish for.

cloud ibex
#

for whatever reason that made me imagine one of those meme news images where lebron james does some stupid mistake like trying to enter the dungeon early

#

except instead it's "Xeroc, God of Primordial Light accused of bringing pre-written raps to the freestyle rap battle"

ionic fjord
#

Who would be there to give me obviously unreliable narration about my foes if I killed Yharim? :C

pliant ruin
#

Uhhh

#

John Wulfrum??

dusk laurel
#

John Wulfrum is always there

#

But he's way more reliable than Yharim so that might not work

ionic fjord
#

Kinda confusing that there's a god of light and a god of the sun when there's only like 7 gods mentioned in the whole lore...hmm...

spare pier
#

There isn't a God of the Sun

ionic fjord
#

Wtf is the- how- what- why- who df is Providence then??

cloud ibex
#

we don't know

#

overall to my knowledge the devs like the sound of Ash as her domain

spare pier
#

Yeah

ionic fjord
#

Thats even more confusing lol

spare pier
#

Providence absorbed the Auric Soul of Flame

cloud ibex
#

(personally i like Cinders because Dark Soles)

spare pier
#

Why would it become Sun?

#

There are some leftovers of her Sun connections but hopefully all of them will be changed by the next update

cloud ibex
#

xeroc is closer to a god of the sun because the sun in cal is a ball of primordial light

pliant ruin
#

providence being the goddess of the sun is a very old lore thing

#

beyond her being hot (like, literally, i mean) there isnt really any actual meaningfull connection beetween her and the sun

spare pier
#

She can be hot in both ways if you want

dusk laurel
#

California isn't real

pliant ruin
#

providence the goddess of california

wheat walrus
#

but yea providence is truly the sun goddess it makes sense because the sun burns you like fire and the sun is bigger it's just that the auric soul of flame fused with providence's fire soul and became fire+ which is the sun

therefore providence is star level

Isn’t there an offical poweranking thing

buhyeah

wheat walrus

all of what I said there and right before is funny yapping

cosmic zenith
#

"Official" (not really)

#

Just Cei's opinion on the matter

#

Fairly accurate, but not officialized

fading helm
#

i realllyyyy doubt noxus is like

#

yharim level

#

basically

#

considering he is supposedly a superboss

#

oh wait no

#

I read wrong

#

nvm

#

loll

real silo
#

Noxus would turn yharim into string cheese

fading helm
#

I think like

#

yharim can hold his own

#

for a fair amount of time

#

who would win
The whole force of the crusade vs noxus and the distortion

#

Personally I have the crusade winning

#

unless the mobs from the distortion are op asf

#

in comparasion to the army

cloud ibex
#

the crusade does presumably lose out on a fair bit of manpower since i doubt DoG would go against Noxus

real silo
#

The crusade has like

#

Mechs level godseekers
Yharon
Yharim
Post provi arsenal

fading helm
real silo
#

Right ig scal and draedon counts

fading helm
#

then it depends on who finishes their fights first

#

Maybe noxus just carries tho who knows

real silo
#

Exos didn't exist until after draedon left so they aren't considered part of the crusade

fading helm
#

ohh

#

true

#

hm

#

oh thats a big hit

#

can see distortion winning unless yharon finishes dog fast and helps yharim and scal then

wheat walrus
cosmic zenith
#

Ehhhhh

#

Not really

wheat walrus
cosmic zenith
#

Official implies that it's something we've collectively agreed to use

#

Which is not the case

wheat walrus
#

that is not included in the definition of official silly gangster

#

I will now blow up your skin

cosmic zenith
#

How so

#

Things are official to the mod, not to developers

#

And the mod is made through collective agreement

wheat walrus
# cosmic zenith How so

official within this context means coming from an official source, what you're describing on agreements means a definitive and official decision

#

something can be official, as in coming from any form of official source, while not being definitive in any way

#

this isn't really relevant though

#

it doesn't change anything since the power level list is not canon or collectively agreed as you said

indigo glade
#

Quick. Stipulate Venus. Say that the Terrarian is Omegaoutshitversal, and forever damn Omni.

wheat walrus
#

that does not change anything

gritty kraken
wheat walrus
# wheat walrus that does not change anything

these days with calamity I rarely consider developer statements for my own scaling stuff, the only time I did was to calculate Calamitas boiling a sea more properly, and I think those descriptions I got won't be directly or even indirectly contradicted by anything that will be canon ngl, if they are then I will be remaking the thing

other than that, I don't consider dev statements like "xeroc can destroy most of the moon with his strongest attack" in my scaling because that has never been shown or implied in canon sources, and dev statements about the moon kinda give it away that it may not even be the same size as ours, that is consistent with stars in calamity but yea

other than that, I may consider stuff like in-universe comparisons, "pre-ascension xeroc is comparable to yharon" or "fovos is stronger than noxus and everyone else except xeroc" or "zeratros is comparable to yharim", if there's nothing canon that says anything about this, or if what the canon says can be further supported by these statements, and especially if these statements are not contradicted by other dev statements, which happens; pre-ascension xeroc used to be comparable to yharim, not yharon in power. main reason for me using these statements mainly and not others is because usually they are related to a character that will not be in the game or that will not be a boss, and that doesn't have much canon information currently, therefore leaving us only with the choice of looking into these in-universe comparison statements from devs

#

so idk if stip cei reb and others suddenly decided that devourer of gods truly can cause space, time and the universe to collapse by existing I would not be eating any of that unless it's specified within canon stuff, so ingame and ig in the lore doc that's pinned on this channel too, that is where Noxus being a thing in new lore is revealed outside of dev statements

man i've been pronouncing Xeroc wrong the whole time if the first part is supposed to be identical to Zeratros

#

either that or Zeratros is pronounced "Zee-rah-tross"

robust osprey
#

I pronunce xeroc like

#

xerrouc

cosmic zenith
#

😎

wheat walrus
#

Cseroc

#

Xeroc's name is annoying on my poor italian tongue, so I usually pronounce it as something around Seroc/Zeroc

cosmic zenith
#

Yeah, I pronounce it as Zeroc too

wheat walrus
#

It's kinda hard to understand these pronounciation talk that happens especially with english language

#

I write/type/chat a lot in english but I don't talk nearly as much of it

#

Being italian where the only way to pronounce anything is how it's written for the most part, it's kinda hard to properly understand pronounciation talk

fading helm
#

Isnt it smth like

#

xe-ro-c

#

or xe-roc

#

how can it be similar to zera

sinful adder
#

See, the problem is that X is a fake letter and is usually just Z when pronounced

#

You have to strain it really hard to make it something else, and then it's "KS" instead of "Z"

robust osprey
#

in spanish everyone do "KS" instead of "Z"

#

so I do like, kserrouc

#

atleast in argentina

sinful adder
#

I see

#

But then that's just the reverse problem

robust osprey
#

actually kseggouc cause my dumbass cant pronunce "RR" without it sounding like "GRG"

#

byeah

That's Dokuro's character guy, not related to Calamity but to Dokuro themselves; even assuming they are Dokuro's Terrarian they wouldn't be actual canon since the Terrarian is not a set-in-stone character they are literally whoever you want them to be

You can make them extrashitfartversal if you want

The highest possible feat you can do is to level the entire world

country level maybe?

Terrarian vs Goku who wins

swift badger
#

Goku

ivory vigil
#

They are probably around the same strength just Goku is faster

swift badger
#

isnt goku universal

ivory vigil
#

True
However
The terrarian has enough hax to equalise

#

Chalice of the Blood God means that the Terrarian doesn't take damage all at once. Goku could hit us with a universe buster and the chalice makes it so we take all the damage slowly over time

deft vessel
#

What am i vitnessing

ivory vigil
deft vessel
#

Goku

swift badger
#

Atleast the Terrarian solos Omniman

deft vessel
#

There is nothing saying the Terrarian is as strong as Goku

ivory vigil
#

Goku wins but how hard does Goku win

swift badger
#

not no diff but easy

ivory vigil
#

I think it's high diff because the terrarian while not being able to actually kill Goku. They are just extremely hard to kill

swift badger
#

thats the issue

deft vessel
#

The strongest Calamity character is like continent level

swift badger
#

post lore thingy

ivory vigil
#

Doesn't matter. Things like Chalice of the Blood God means that the Terrarian will survive for a while due to drinking potions and the bleed effect

fierce pagoda

Noxus is only continental?

ivory vigil
swift badger
fierce pagoda
#

He's the most destructive Cal character according to devs iirc

dusk laurel
#

#

Hi Vanillin

deft vessel
#

Is this old lore powerscaling

dusk laurel
#

Hallo

swift badger
#

but he probably rivals a bit of Xerocs power

deft vessel
#

Or am i missing something

ivory vigil
#

While calamitas is the most destructive character currently (with feats)

The terrarian just has better feats

dusk laurel
ivory vigil
#

With just insane durability

deft vessel
#

Tf

#

No?

ivory vigil
#

What is stopping the terrarian from being planetary. At the end of Calamity (currently) we have killed multiple gods, creatures stronger than gods, have the ability to destroy the planet fairly quickly

fierce pagoda
#

Not even Xeroc is planetary according to lore writers, so no shot we are

dusk laurel
#

Nop

ivory vigil
#

Huh. Weird

fierce pagoda
#

He can definitely kill all life on earth if he wished

#

but hes not blowing up the planet no

dusk laurel
#

And he's the strongest known being in the lore

deft vessel
#

Nothing can surpass him iirc

dusk laurel
#

Ye

fierce pagoda
#

Apparently, Noxus has better destructive capabilites than Xeroc even

#

But Xeroc is a better fighter

ivory vigil
#

wires we are missing something crucial then because something doesn't add up

fierce pagoda
#

so Xeroc would always win in a fight

#

What are we missing

#

cuz we probably are, Lore isnt finished

ivory vigil
#

The terrarian can comfortably destroy the entire world with just the crystalin crusher or whatever its called. We survived someone who is continental and outscale her by the end and have killed multiple gods

fierce pagoda
#

Crystalin crusher isnt canon

dusk laurel
#

Note, gods are not all-powerful in Calamity

#

And dedicated content isn't canon

ivory vigil
#

Blossom Pickaxe still does the job bit slower. Meaning we are likely just normal planetary instead of high planetary

deft vessel
#

They dont have complete control over their domains

dusk laurel
#

We also only play on a part of one continent

Nevermind I'm not that knowledgeable on early DB

fierce pagoda
#

I mean I guess it depends on who is faster, if Goku can land a fully charged Kamehameha its over

swift badger
#

they will never guess when they got pinged

ivory vigil
#

Does Goku have instant transmission at this point because the Terrarian has normality relocator

fierce pagoda
#

normality relocator isnt canon

#

since its dedicated content

swift badger
#

Rod of discord then

ivory vigil
#

I am going to TWEAK

fierce pagoda
#

and no Goku does not have IT

#

at that point

#

if its full power terrarian he has rod of harmony

swift badger
#

yeah

ivory vigil
#

Is rod of harmony in the fight because that item solos it

fierce pagoda
#

but terrarian cant use weapons while he uses rod

#

so he has to choose between attacking and teleporting
