#

I don't totally understand what you mean, because to me, bullet hell interludes are just a much part of the fight itself

dusk laurel
#

I think a flamethrower fits her more tbh

#

We already have a death laser from the exo mechs

sinful adder
#

Dodging complex attack patterns is always more involved than pointing in the general direction of the boss and clicking, so having fights be in distinct phases of defending and attacking is more interesting

#

To me

untold oracle
sinful adder
#

It's a little weird, but from a gameplay perspective it seems good to me

untold oracle
#

I think the scal fight on expert rev (the intended difficulty) feels very unintimidating

sinful adder
#

It feels like a fair challenge to me, whereas the exo mechs just feel like bullshit

light linden
#

Ngl

#

Boss Rush scal is genuinely horrible

#

Also fun fact

sinful adder
untold oracle
light linden
#

I may like exo mechs a lot more than scal but uh

#

My first playthrough exo mechs killed me over 500 times iirc

dusk laurel
light linden
#

Whereas Scal only got me twice

sinful adder
#

It was pretty difficult for me too

#

Exos, I mean

#

They definitely feel harder, but to me its in a way that is way less fun

cloud ibex
#

I never really saw that personally

#

She never really struck me as a deathray type boss

Every boss is a Moonlord laser™ type of boss

Flamethrower scal would be sick

#

True

#

magic guns already exist so might as well make a mage flamethrower

#

imagining an attack where she goes to the middle of the arena and hogs up a quarter of the bottom with a giant flame that spawns rising projectiles you have to dodge

random mulch
#

having bullet hells be a bit more than "projectiles randomly spawning" would be nice

untold oracle
#

I could see that as a good alternative to the current bullet hell

faint plank
#

literally dogma

#

Bullet hell phases are the get out of jail free card of making boss fights longer and varied

#

boss fight too short? just plop in a bullet hell phase and call it a day!

#

oh and make sure the boss is invulnerable during it too!

#

I don't like it when boss fights do that

#

I also hate when the boss summons minions to fight for it

#

and i also hate when bosses have attack patterns that overlap

#

this happens often in the binding of isaac

#

quick time events also feel cheap

#

Sometimes it also happens that boss fights go more like a puzzle than it does an actual fight, like in Zelda games for example, and i don't really look at them as satisfying boss fights. Give me an actual FIGHT, not a glorified puzzle please

#

If none of these things happen in a boss fight, then i consider it a good boss fight for me, but its rare a fight does NONE of these things

#

Also sometimes boss fights feels too scripted you know? like the fight feels like you're just playing through a sequence, not actually fighting the boss itself, think of Cronos from god of war 3. I also don't view them as proper boss fights

split mortar
#

I think boss summons are fine

#

Just that they often are handled bad

fierce pagoda
#

Thats why its bad though, because its often bad

#

If the implementation was often good i wouldn't be complaining about it

split mortar
#

Fair

fierce pagoda
#

You know it sounds like i just hate boss fights in general lmao with all this ranting

hoary cape
#

Maybe you do

fierce pagoda
#

Maybe I just like having fun, and boss fights often aren't

#

No that's not it, I guess the boss fights i like the best are when the player and the boss follow the same rules

plush oasis
fierce pagoda
#

You can dodge, the boss can dodge, you can attack the boss at all times, and the boss can attack you at all times

#

It shouldn't be harder than that

plush oasis
untold oracle
#

I personally just dislike invincibilty bullet hell/minion phases, they could be fixed by simply making the boss vulnerable too

fierce pagoda
#

The only times i see minions work is when the boss steps out of the fight, or only does minimal attacks while the minion is alive

untold oracle
#

Maybe the minions could give damage resistance to the boss that then lowers as more are killed?

fierce pagoda
#

Other wise it just becomes frustrating, having to deal with the boss at full force while minions distract you

#

The thing with minions is that they are cheap ways for lazy devs to artificially increase a boss's difficulty

#

i hope thats not to harsh

Merry christmas nerdsss

manic coral
#

But it was decided that the potential of being able to go about the fight either a slower but safer way or a faster but more dangerous way was more interesting

I can't remember if that change was made before or after infernum became a thing or not

we did do a vote for keeping your file upload perms but it didn't go through

It was rigged

Hey who cares that we can’t send pics of dev statements, other pictures related to lore, anything to make conversations easier, make docs embed or whatever! At least we won’t go offtopic again!

It’s still making it harder

if anything's missing there you can tell taylor, i think he's the one that manages it

And the issue would still be fixed anyways (kinda) with increased moderation

Lore chat is like

We’re always on topic and totally deserve our pictures back

I think lore chat is literally just a group chat in the middle of the server lol

Back in my day

it can still be a chill space without devolving into gif spam and "power scaling" arguments buried beneath fifteen gorillion layers of irony

if some time passes and someone goes to the modmail to present some good arguments in favor of bringing images back then maybe they'll be returned to you

untold oracle
#

Guys we gotta prepare our manifesto

it's just an example of offtopic convos that have tended to happen here before

stoic gulch

#

Uhh idk just slap all our points into it

stoic gulch
#

Also deltaw merry Christmas

untold oracle
#

In short I think taking embed and image perms is a really arbitrary and poorly made solution to a problem that has more downsides and it doesn’t even fix the issue it was supposed to fix

untold oracle
split mortar
#

Still don’t know any examples of images being bad other then the Terrarian is yours to decide image

ionic harness
#

It’s never gonna not be off topic here tbh. It’s the same few people who come in and talk frequently

We’ve talked about all of the lore that we care about

sharing snippets of cal fanfics you were writing was actually one of the points i presented in favor of keeping images i think

hoary berry

what i write is pretty much half of my interactions here at this point

Yharim would give Draedon a pipebomb probably

either way nothing's really stopping any of you from creating your own personal chill hangout technically cal related but not really offshoot server with all the Cool People™️ from here that keeps the vibe of the channel without disrupting the actual purpose of this one

“Oh, right.” Mark turned his attention to the ball of flaming rock. “So, Providence is dead. And the other two Guardians too. Shame, I had something in the works for you four. Why’d you come here looking for me anyway, you wanna live in this town?” Bubbles nodded. “Well too bad, don’t want ya here.”

“Wha-? Why not?! Come on, pleaaase. I really need a place to stay.” Desperation was almost visibly dripping off her words. “Weren’t you the one chasing after us for a whole week? Surely this isn’t about the omnicide I’ve participated in!”

How any type of magic smells depends on what mana you are most in tune with; to those accustomed to celestial magic and astrology, the mana which acts as the foundation of the astral infection would smell rotten, for they can instinctually sense the twisted intentions of its primitive mind. To those as alien to the astral infection as the infection is to Terraria, however, it would have a sickeningly sweet aroma: an attempt to beckon them, reaching their minds unimpeded due to their lack of understanding of its true nature. Of course, although a human might be able to feel the unsettling nature of these attempted invasions, they will ultimately be unaffected both physically and mentally due to their higher intelligence.

"enough astral"

#

that's vague

how much

#

i'm curious

ionic harness
#

About 3 parts astral to every 1 part person

#

This is factual

hoary berry
#

also, if you're literally stranded within hundreds of square miles of an infection, i think it can still be primitive and rock your shit

this astral talk has given me an idea for rewriting the extant abhorrence entry for my aotc stuff...

Also how the astral works is apparently obvious

hoary berry

this

is legit how i view demon heart and celestial onion

#

well, close enough

#

assigned my headcanon to the wrong permanent upgrades beesive

split mortar
#

Rip

hoary berry
#

albeit i only gave the accessory slot upgrades that headcanon because of another headcanon about how accessories work

#

or how some of them work

cloud ibex
#

each accessory slot corresponds to a different part of the terrarian's body they can attach trinkets and such

split mortar
#

I don’t see 7 limbs

cloud ibex
#

eating the demon heart makes the terrarian realize "oh shit i can attach something to my earlobe"

untold oracle
#

I think the upgrades increase your capacity to utilize the magic your accessories grant

eating the onion makes them go "oh shit i have two of those"

Depends on what you want the off continent country to do imo

My idea is that they like trading and they want access to the cosmilite production of Léa’s kingdom

split mortar

I think Crystal city would do fine then

Would be rich enough to afford cosmilite

Not sure do they like trading tho

eager bluff
#

i have another eden brainrot

split mortar
untold oracle
#

Yeah

#

They don’t know cosmilite is crazy rare tho and making pure cosmilite is extremely expensive

#

The typical way of usage is adding a few drops of it into steel/whatever

eager bluff

#

There’s a mining settlement there

in the distortion i imagine it would be decently rare but not like natural francium rare

Do they slurp the cosmilite up

#

If you want an actual explanation, the way I view all Accessories is that they all have some kind of magical property which the Terrarian can draw from. They can only use so many of those because they can only draw the power from that many

#

Demon Heart and Celestial Onion simply makes you able to draw power from more Accessories at once

hoary berry
#

some others i view differently because of how i like to categorise them, some are just plain exceptions

#

some are technological

i don't really have a consistent way to view them

#

i mean if it's like a giant skull abomination like the old concept art i imagine people wouldn't even assume it was human

#

if she's just a person though then yeah i figure people would just assume its calamitas

spare pier
#

Would you assume the person who boiled a sea to be human?

pliant ruin
#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

spring helm
#

i didnt even kniw they could identify it as brimstone magic tbh

spare pier
#

It burns things really hard

#

And is red

pliant ruin
#

i figure she was seen commonly enough where people knew she was a person, she was probably enough of a figurehead of yharim's army where she'd be a well known figure

#

Though in the case people never saw her i think it'd be plausible enough for them to assume she was some sort of montruous being

spare pier
#

I mean, did she had a reason to be a figurehead?

dusk laurel
spare pier
#

Her power alone spoke far more than her appearance and it's not like Yharim's army was in need of a figure when they already had 4

spring helm
#

Fair enough

spare pier
#

Plus

#

She was a child

#

Remember that

spring helm
#

I guess it’s like knowing what a nuclear explosion looks like

spare pier
#

Anyways I think I spoke too much

spring helm
#

Oh fuck a gigantic mushroom cloud guess Calamitas is nearby

spare pier
#

Granted I think this was obvious enough

pliant ruin
#

I always pictured Calamitas as sort of acting as a "role model" to influence younger people but it seems reasonable that Yharim wouldn't want people seeing he employs literal child soldiers so he'd not really put much publicity on her

spare pier
#

Also, I mean

#

He's there

#

Is there a better role model than him?

#

Considering the elite of his army literally shared his title

spring helm
#

What’s vulnerability he

#

Hex

spare pier
#

In my opinion

spring helm
#

And like, why does calamitas use it and not brimstone elemental

spare pier
#

Something sorta like Yuji's resonance

#

It's a fire that literally burns at your soul

real silo
#

What about nobara's resonance

#

Voodoo spikes

spare pier
#

It's more similar to Yuji's because it's just

#

Fire except it fucks your soul

#

Nobara's power is directly targeted at the soul

#

While Calamitas' is at both

#

But that's just my own take on it

spare pier
#

Calamitas is stronger

#

Shrimple as that

spring helm
#

Oh so it’s just brimstone fire but stronger?

spare pier
#

Well, alternatively

#

Vulnerability Hex is something she created by employing some necromancy fundaments into her flames

spring helm
#

Does she go like “Bankai” and the brimstone flames go up a tier and turn into vulnerability hex

#

Her ||devil fruit awakening||

spare pier
#

It's her own creation. I don't think it's just Brimstone Flame 2 but rather a fusion of Brimstone Flames and some necromancy fundaments

#

It's an aspect that after a while became the norm in her spell crafting too

#

Which is why everything inflicts it

spring helm
#

That handily explains why CalClone doesn’t have it since she can’t do necromancy

spare pier
#

I mean

#

She does

#

She still has her own version of the brothers

#

But she doesn't have the mastery over magic to do it either way

spring helm
#

Oh nvm I read the bestiary entry wrong

spare pier
#

You can assume making a flame that simultaneously burns at your body and soul is a hard thing to pull off

spring helm
#

I thought it said calclone doesn’t do necromancy

#

It’s actually

hexes and black magic

#

Thank you for your time Rebecca

spare pier
#

Random thought too but if I ever write Calamitas vs Calamari you can bet your ass I'm making her pull out a Fuuga

real silo
#

Cal pulls out condemnation

spring helm
#

The Calamitas vs Mark boss fight doesn’t even happen in my fanfic.
Mark hunts Calamitas down and offers her a magical girl wand and it confuses her so much it stops the potential battle.

real silo
#

Or maybe
Rework condemnation and just make it fuuga

spare pier
#

Eh, reworking Cal's drops is not worth it imo

#

Maybe in the distant future

real silo
#

Wow..

spare pier
#

Like

real silo
#

They're only 3 years old

spare pier
#

I could see us reworking SCal and Exos loot before doing Yharim

spring helm
#

Now that I think about it, Burning Sea as a name is kind of nuts. Like either Calamitas names a weapon after one of the most horrifying things she did and greatly regrets, or the Terrarian did it

spare pier
#

Because we found out some of the shit they drop is fucking useless

real silo
#

As opposed to stuff that are 5 years old

#

Isn't burning sea a brimmy drop

spare pier
#

Random ass craft

real silo
#

Or is it unholy cores I forgot

spare pier
#

It's being changed in SSO

spring helm
#

Man my memory is off today

real silo
spring helm
#

I thought it was a cal enchant

real silo
#

Enchants are adjectives

spare pier
#

Like, I looked at Burning Sea and thought

#

"This thing really needs to be changed in SSO"

spring helm
#

Wait not enchant

real silo
#

Ephemeral, tainted, bloodthirsty, resentful

spring helm
#

That thing she does that turns a weapon into another weapon

real silo
#

Exhumes?

#

Yeah

spare pier
#

Yeah, Burning Sea turns into Rancor

real silo
#

Burning sea becomes rancor

spring helm
#

Yes

#

Oh…..

real silo
#

Rancor nova drift

spring helm
#

That’s why I’m remembering it like that

spare pier
#

I wanted to change Burning Sea specially because of that

#

Like

spring helm
#

that's kinda nuts in its own way

spare pier
#

Damn they really just decided to make Rancor out of that fuckass item solely because it was called that

#

Better than Ghastly Visage

real silo
#

Clearly it should be last prism exhume

spring helm
#

"Cal, you said you'd repay living in my town by upgrading my weapons right? Here's one called Burning Sea, I named it after the incineration of Ilmeri..."

real silo
#

It's lore relevant because ml uses last prism to fire his iconic deathray clueless

spare pier
#

I would've probably picked an item out of Polterghast for the Exhume list but like

#

Not Ghastly Visage

#

Tho I might've changed it to be a Permafrost item

spring helm
#

make an AotC exhume pls and thank you

spare pier
#

No

spring helm
real silo
#

my brother in jolly aotc is already auric tier

spare pier
#

Also like

#

The entire point is AotC being YOUR THING

spring helm
#

is bringing Cal over to our side not part of our strength?

spare pier
#

Identity-wise the item wouldn't be yours

spring helm
#

this is just my biome blade bias showing anyway

spare pier
#

You could bullshit as much as you want, an Exhume is still Calamitas stuff

real silo
#

If it was an exhume it would always be associated with cal

spring helm
#

i suppose that's also the same reason why no miracle upgrade will happen as well, since that's partially Draedon's

#

wait if Ares is shooting unstable miracle matter during the fight, doesn't that mean it's slowly deconstructing itself doing that?

spare pier
#

Yeah

#

Draedon comments on that in Draetalk

spring helm
#

melting down some of the internal components into an unstable slurry of this so-called Miracle Matter.
here it is, that's cool

spare pier
#

Btw I still fucking love the new Metastasis tooltip

#

I managed to slip in a small joke about how much confusion the old tooltip caused

dusk laurel
#

Peak

spring helm
#

is calclone physically the same age as calamitas or like 10 years old

dusk laurel
spare pier
#

No

#

I mean that I would've changed Gruesome Eminence entirely in favor of an Exhume related to Permafrost

dusk laurel
#

Alright

spare pier
#

But we're probably making an Exhume out of an Accessory related to Perma anyways so

#

Basically every topic I could've wished for is covered

spare pier
#

I managed to cook and made Pulse Rifle related to both Draedon AND Cal Clone

spring helm
#

huh

spare pier
#

For one second I forgot if that was a public but I revealed it a while ago so

#

I talked about that and Apocalypse before

dusk laurel
#

I didn't know about the calclone part

spare pier
#

I kinda just snuck it in the tooltip

#

The item itself will probably not have anything Cal Clone related

#

She just mentions it

# split pewter tf are exoparticles

i got no way of explaining it better than draedon so here's his quote

Exo Prisms emit a self-sustaining resonance of particles that is unlike any other phenomena I have observed. I dubbed this Exotic Resonance, and it is the breakthrough that the rest of exotechnology is named for. Exotic resonance remains present no matter how much energy is drawn from it, amplifying the intrinsic properties of the Sea Prisms far beyond my expectations. The sheer abundance of energy produced via exotic resonance allows a sufficient quantity of Exo Prisms to power any device, no matter the size or complexity.

split pewter
spring helm
#

alright

#

what's your current hypothesis

split pewter
#

that’s what i’m trying to figure out

#

first thought that comes to mind is a fun xeelee reference

#

grand unified theory whatever

#

somehow for reasons completely unbeknownst to everyone, exotic resonance is actually a bunch of GuT field excitations that spontaneously produce packets of what can only be considered “pure matter”

#

some packet of excited field that is closer to energy than matter

#

usually they disperse immediately

spring helm
#

you mean like the mass that comes from gluon interactions

split pewter
#

but the atomic scale engravings on these crystals can create hotspots in this field through idk constructive interference

#

and allow for a net release of energy

sinful adder
#

There is a better explanation

sinful adder
#

It is "resonance", which is a wave phenomenon. Suppose it is a constructive resonance phenomenon in one of the fundamental fields, which generates infinite energy without the vibration decaying. This doesn't make perfect sense, but it seems like the closest match to the information given

#

It can be any fundamental field as long as it is one that could emit an energy carrying particle and interact with whatever sea prisms are made of. I assume that it may be the electromagnetic fields due to the original source of the phenomenon being the electric goddess and auric soul of storms

spring helm
#

well the sea prisms are like that because they've been blessed by Otonilou so I'm assuming it's something to do with divine power not the material of the sea prism

sinful adder
#

I imagine the material was created by that power

split pewter
#

made some bullshit

when I reached Iceborne and didn't have to wait for my friend anymore I was at a point where I went so hard with lance I completed the entire Iceborne expansion main storyline in like 4-5 days, and then reached MR50 while hunting every monster that can be hunted up to that master rank point aside from Alatreon and Fatalis at least once (except for Black Diablos obviously)

(also Savage Deviljho technically but that was more about me trying once, failing and deciding to wait till later for that since it's optional)

couldn't do that with Azure Rathalos sadly since I needed some stuff for equipment

honestly, road to fatalis and arch-tempered velkhana with 0 black diablos hunts
