Though I also think on this basis, it'd be more like increasing the size of already present matter than increasing the general density of the space itself

sinful adder
#

Mass is real life space magic energy

wheat walrus
#

real life doesn't create portals to evil looking world tho

#

but you're right in that real life does have cool stuff already

sinful adder
#

The laws of physics allow this if you do certain things that may or may not be possible

#

Like have negative mass

spare pier
#

Take the pill

1 - Universe is chill with gravity
2 - Gravity doesn't exist in Calamity HDfailure

wheat walrus
spare pier
#

One of the options is far more sensible than the other

sinful adder
#

More accurately uh

#

If you have negative gravity you can do weird shit

split mortar
sinful adder
#

So the universe is fine with positive gravity but not negative gravity maybe

spring helm
#

considering how gravity refuses to work in a way that allows for classical physics and quantum mechanics, it might as well be magic

spare pier
#

Or it's because the distortion caused by gravity is far more smooth than that of causing one by itself

spring helm
#

the Distortion????

#

Noxus is the one providing the energy????

spare pier
#

The difference between laying down a ball softly on the fabric vs trying to punch it

sinful adder
#

Also, the kinds of limits you discuss kind of happen in real life, having gravity without mass causes violent ripples that disperse the energy and return to a flat state

spare pier
#

Gotta love how Cosmic Mine entry just allows me to talk about this shit lmao

#

Since, yeah you might assume that none of this is getting into Calamity because it'd be the equivalent of putting a full physics book in a game

These REALLY SPECIFIC SHIT about how the universe as a whole works isn't going into Cal, but you can definitely expect a basic cosmology guide in the game itself

with all my years of reading, i've basically come down to the conclusion of
"it's magic when there's mana involved or otherwise specified as magic"

uhh if you're referring to auric heretic thing it's a reference to that one jjk fan ending from last week which sucked and everyone shat on it because it had all the nasty stuff like tracing, possible ai, google translator writing and even the creator of it making fun of the official one and gege

Byeah, one day we all just sat down on Dev and

Wrote down all of the basic cosmology we needed for Cal's universe to work

Crackpot theory

Since it’s possible gravity to too high of an extreme gets undone maybe that’s why no irl star type things are known

Their gravity always gets denied and they deform into planets clueless

I regret coming back to chat

So they killed the two guys

#

Not a okie dokie way to end my day before I sleep

And now this guy tried to kill ALL OF HIS SIBLINGS because they were also in the way

#

But he failed because one of them was really goated

dusk laurel
#

Real

spare pier

But everyone else died

wheat walrus

#

And also the woman which was called Delta vanished

Anyway that’s probably enough derailing the chat from my end

#

One second I need to explain why the child is important

y'all really telling Reb to shut up lmao

offtopic and nsfw, think that's a warn if not a mute right, this ain't the first time we got nsfw and offtopic :/

But yes calamity lore

wheat walrus

#

I’m tired

#

And I should go sleep

#

I’ll do that soon

spare pier
#

So, ok this guy then comes back to life because of his powers and then he goes "damn, my brother is too goated I need to get stronger" so he goes to Delta and grabs the kids because his contingency plan in case he lost the fight to his siblings was to eat his child's soul because that'd make him super strong

#

Hey, I'm back guys.

#

Question: Does primordial light only come from the sun or is it also in other stars?

dusk laurel
#

Just the sun

reef wigeon
# dusk laurel Just the sun

I already suspected it considering that the Empress of Light's lore item says "in the starlight, she falls weakly" Or something like that

#

And what are the primordial Wyrms themselves? Are they familiars of the auric dragons or something like that?

spring helm
#

There is only one primordial wyrm

#

It is the oldest eidolon wyrm, which are dragon offshoots

#

Dragon offshoots are children/descendants of auric dragons, but they do not have an auric soul

#

Primordial Wyrm is not only the oldest Wyrm, but also has been blessed by the goddess Silva, though it hasn’t been stated what the blessing specifically does

reef wigeon
#

Speaking of the abyss, as far as I know, the Terminus is an artifact of infinite power that Xeroc had kept in the abyss, but it lost its power little by little.

#

Am I wrong?

spring helm
#

We don’t know anything about the terminus outside of what Xeroc tells us in the boss rush

#

It held great power once, but we don’t know what that power is

#

One theory here in the channel is that it is required for a “perfect ascension to godhood, where the divine domain the ascendant receives is the same as the original auric soul’s domain, as seen with Xeroc and Silva.

#

This would explain why it holds no power now, as there is only one auric soul’s left and no mortal (except Yharim) has knowledge of the ritual required to ascend.

#

Could be something else though so 🤷‍♂️

reef wigeon
#

Although I know that wrath of gods is not canon, the nameless deity song seems to make you reflect on what you have done, reaching that point, and he tells you that being a God is a curse. Furthermore, we also have to take into account that we don't even know what a nameless deity is, whether it is a Xeroc from a non-existent timeline (in which he was the creator god if I recall correctly) or an angel of god

nameless isnt xeroc

spring helm
#

video essay coming from the lore writers explaining lore when

wheat walrus
# wheat walrus nameless can be xeroc, not the current main calamity one though

in terms of WoTG's own "canon", WoTG doesn't care much about canon but, Lucille is neutral on the naming thing, testers call it Xeroc and ND interchangeably and will tell you that it is Xeroc, even if it takes root from an older concept of it and does its own thing

now I really don't like WoTG fans and their negativity about Calamity, it's annoying as hell, but imma say that it's not a sin to call ND "Xeroc", at most it just causes confusion, but with the knowledge that WoTG is its own thing mostly separate from Calamity that doesn't do anything with canon, calling ND "Xeroc" should be obvious that they don't mean the same exact character as Calamity's Lore, the problem comes from how it causes confusion from more clueless people methinks

lowk when people shit on official anime with several episodes that are at least 10+ minutes long but usually longer for being worse than the 20 second fanmade clip that took months, only time that was true was those Blue Lock Season 2 clips that looked worse than videos made by some teen with capcut and/or alight motion

and even then, not the animators' fault really but the higher-ups giving them the prisoner treatment lowkey

idk depends

maybe I stepped in the wrong time

but whenever they talk about cal, especially about lore they kinda annoying

dusk laurel
#

Yeah

#

I checked gen in wotgcord once a while ago

#

And the discussion about the base mod's lore was questionable

wheat walrus
#

"The seventeenth ruler of the constitutional monarchy of Ilmeris since the tribes of the Ilmeran Sea unified, under the Electric Goddess, Otonilou, and the elusive God of the Seas. Alas, one cannot be a ruler without subjects, and while he remains widely respected by those who opposed Godseeker Yharim, his kingdom is no more." it's quite wordy but like, mfs be treating it as if it was the downfall of society

dusk laurel
#

Smth smth "wall of text bad"

wheat walrus
#

tens of thousands of deaths and abandoned homes per year because of Sea King Bestiary Entry's existence btw

wheat walrus
# dusk laurel Smth smth "wall of text bad"

I think the problem there is here is that the first part is hella wordy and the most of what it adds is mention the existence of 2 gods without clarifying on them, while the second part is already known other than the minor detail of him being respected by Yharim haters

now the entry is a combination of many details that in the grand scheme of things are not relevant, which is what people don't really like combined with it being wordy; the thing is here is that these details either already are relevant to the worldbuilding, or don't seem to be but will probably be (I assume the 17th ruler stuff will be relevant to piecing a part of the timeline), however what they care about is that gameplay above all so we don't gaf about anything that goes too far beyond it

but I don't really agree, Terraria doesn't care about worldbuilding and even Red is just whatever about lore, now Calamity is a Terraria mod but who cares if it fits or not at this point, ND is in no way in line with anything from vanilla, and having a big combination of tiny bits about the world where everything happens that can be combined into making an actual living world is cool; the issue with Amidias Bestiary is it being wordy, that is not some sin that means Calamity Bad and Calamity Lore Terrible, any complaint beyond the wordyness is taste, not Calamity Lore being ass

this kinda reminds me of MH Fans often times shitting on its lore, like when Haunting Of The Sun book dropped and BannedLagiacrus (some mh loremaster guy of twitter lmao) an early translation about Magala reproduction method, everyone started shitting on it for being "retcon and bad" and said that mh lore sucks because of these kinds of things, then a proper translation came up that actually explained it well (it wasn't a retcon and it wasn't as absurd as monsters suddenly turning into Magalas) and no one gave a shit

#

like bro if you don't like the lore or the presence of lore you don't have to engage with it :/

#

especially when you're gonna take

#

one (1) isolated text that's lower end compared to other stuff and start generalizing everything and even exaggerate it calling the entirety of the thing bad instead of that one text

indigo glade
#

They're never good.

wheat walrus
#

there's no official ones for most of the books 😭

#

and the one book in recent times that had one has a multitude of issues

#

Banned kinda just dropped a quick recap of his translations, the more detailed one also was fanmade

indigo glade
#

People still meme on certain manga translations, such as Attack on Titan.

#

I think JJK also had issues with fans simply translating the manga incorrrectly...

wheat walrus
#

iirc the big issue with JJK was the anime had localization problems rather than fan translation problems

#

at most I remember that one JJBA Part 4 fan translation being made fun of a lot

#

the problem with MH books is that they're almost never localized, and hold a lot of important information

wheat walrus
indigo glade
#

The difference between Duwang and other fan translations was that it was very obvious it was translated horribly.

wheat walrus
#

still, the Magala situation was more about Banned having this habit with his twitter posts of giving a recap of what he translated looking at it not from the perspective of the in-universe writer of the thing, but rather from a meta perspective, his own perspective from what he read while translating (which is why he specified that the reproduction stuff was changed, rather than expanded upon), that and how while he leaves the chunk of text he translated, most people don't give a shi

then another twitter lore person (Luty iirc) pulled up with direct translations and explained the situation better, but that didn't have much reach in comparison to the original post from Banned

#

fan-translations are bad if they aren't done proper, or if you already have localized material and the localization isn't problematic

#

fan-translations for MH books are lowkey salvation for mh lore fans 🙏

#

there's dialogues, lots of it but it doesn't expand nearly as much as the books do, especially in newer games

If so smart why can’t cure, are they stupid clueless

And I am a giant superstructure

Why didn’t I think of that

#

Good idea

light linden
#

you know

#

I wonder if that would actually help with some medical conditions

#

might kill tumors

sinful adder
#

I think astral would just "enlighten" the tumors and make them try to spread to the rest of you

pliant ruin
#

i mean i don't think that's hot it would work because tumors aren't sentient but idk

#

it affects non-living matter to be fair

#

so actually it probably would

hoary cape
#

Well tumors are technically living being cells still

pliant ruin
#

they're living just not sentient but

#

astral affects even non living so

hoary cape
#

Ye

#

It affects living things, but has a really hard time going after sentience

#

Which is why we are not affected

#

It somehow got deus though

pliant ruin
#

I mean deus isn't sentient as far as we know

#

it might be though, ig

sinful adder
#

Astral affects almost(?) anything that isn't sapient, which includes both sentient animals and no sentient living and nonliving things

#

It turns trees into monoliths, after all

# hoary cape It somehow got deus though

I think the implication & Dreadon's wider theory suggests it's a juvenile Deus who didn't recognise the star they were presiding over as infested & either directly ingested the Astral Infection & fell ill, or something to that effect

real af though, kids just be eating anything and get sick

Kinda wondering

#

Y'all think there are any doctors of note in calamity?

The nurse

I said doctor

She is the closest to my knowledge of an actual medical doctor though

Are the One Drop yoyos canon?
As they're kinda crossover/dedicated content

pliant ruin
#

i mean
i suppose going by the crossover rule no

#

but they're like the most harmless crossovers ever i think

#

so idk

magic epoch
#

true

pliant ruin
#

i dont think devs thought abt it too much

#

if at all

split mortar
#

How blatant of a crossover thing is it?

#

Cause Draedons heart is canon despite being senator armstrong

pliant ruin
#

i mean

#

theyre blatant references because theyre literally real life yoyos

#

but likeee

#

it's the most inconsequential thing ever

#

draedons heart imo is fine because its not

#

Armstrongs Heart

#

its Draedon's Heart

#

and despite being obviosuly a reference

#

it has visible differences

What would be Xeroc's tier (post-ascension)?

do we even know enough about them to slap a label

but not above planetary

that i know as much

#

none of the cla characters go above that

split mortar
# reef wigeon Yes

Country to continental is what Omni has scaled (likely country)

Though what we know is not much so it can very much change with any new info

reef wigeon

Although the truth is I don't know much about power scaling

So I can't really give an opinion.

See THIS is what I mean

mighty zenith

Yeah

mighty zenith

like
they think killing a dragon/god means getting rid of that concept entirely

#

which is ????

reef wigeon

ah yes the dragon of death is dead therefore no one can die anymore

Gotta love how after the queen slime fight all slime enemies stopped existing

magic epoch
mighty zenith

say no to death! nobody can kill you without your consent

snow mountain
#

i will

mighty zenith
reef wigeon
#

I think one explanation for that is that even after death, the gods or auric dragons are still present (spiritually)

magic epoch
pliant ruin
#

having a domain dosen't mean you're the source of all of it

magic epoch
#

im not elaborating

mighty zenith
#

it is

pliant ruin
#

it just means you have powers related to that domaina

#

dragon of death isn't the reason death exists, per example

magic epoch
#

death was invented by John Death back in 7800 bc

mighty zenith
#

people in 7801 bc

magic epoch
#

🫸omfg🫷

reef wigeon
latent bolt
#

death already existed long before dragon of death

reef wigeon
#

If they cease to exist, the concept also ceases to exist.

#

(by the way, I think kwami means "quantum god" or something like that)

#

Hey, now that I think about it, could there be more gods of light than just Xeroc? I mean, there are more than 100 suns in the universe, so it would make sense (But I don't know if it's the same in Calamity mod)

pliant ruin
#

There's just 1 sun as in the big ball of primordial light in calamity as far as we know

#

but who knows

split mortar
#

Xeroc is specifically sunlight

#

Which is different to normal light

#

So a normal light god could exist

magic epoch
#

you're telling me that my diamond torch isn't powered by xeroc?

split mortar
#

But they would be drastically weaker

reef wigeon
#

Providence wanted to consume the sun and burn the planet or am I wrong?

split mortar
#

She still wants to burn the planet though

#

But she isn’t sun related

mighty zenith
#

i feel like the powers of gods and dragons are restricted to the planet (and things that affect it like the sun)

#

since it came from the world soul and all that

pliant ruin
#

xeroc is technically still something from the planet

#

because he's not god of the sun

#

he's god of the sun's light

mighty zenith
#

yeah

split mortar
#

Yeah

mighty zenith
#

sunlight reaches and affects the planet

#

so it still counts

split mortar
#

This indicates the sun is called primordial clueless

reef wigeon
mighty zenith
#

the sun is alive

pliant ruin
#

yeh

magic epoch
#

primordial's light goes crazy

reef wigeon
#

Exactly, does the primordial light have the power of creation or does it have several more powers?

mighty zenith
#

we know xeroc can create temporary copies of creatures using it

#

but thats all

magic epoch
#

xeroc vs galeem (start of world of light)

mighty zenith
#

xeroc vs GOD ITSELF

reef wigeon
magic epoch
#

mighty zenith
#

xeroc didnt create the rock

#

they carved it from the dragon aerie

mighty zenith

#

I find it very strange that we have Xeroc's pre-ascension design but not that of other gods.

split mortar
#

We know atleast 1 dev thinks slime god was a femboy

reef wigeon
#

That leaves me with doubts, although I think it is so that we do not know if the pre-ascension design connects with the post-ascension.

split mortar

And silva can basically shapeshift

i think xeroc is too enigmatic for my liking currently

Xeroc will prob get higher up when we learn more

#

Too little for me to really say

they're definitely interesting but as a character yeah

too little to go off of

reef wigeon
#

I think Yharim really makes him look like the villain

split mortar
#

Yharim is the hate gods guy and that is the god guy

Maybe some bias

#

From what we know they may be protecting the entire planet from alien threats (noxus) tho

reef wigeon
#

The truth is, if he wasn't there, who knows if it was betrayal or if Zeratros simply told him to absorb his soul.

cloud ibex
#

the only reason yharim knows is because The Most Biased Dragon In Existence told him

reef wigeon
cloud ibex
#

and i'm not even sure if it was possible for yharon himself to have been there to see it

mighty zenith
#

iirc yharim describes the whole thing very vaguely

reef wigeon
mighty zenith
#

like, all he says is that the monk visited Zeratros until eventually they came out shrouded in primordial light

#

so i think yharon just assumed it to be a betrayal

reef wigeon
mighty zenith
#

they couldve been a traitor
they couldve been innocent
couldve been a lot of things

cloud ibex
#

for all we know it might not have been their idea

#

for all we know there could have been other dragons who willingly gave up their souls

mighty zenith
gritty kraken
#

Then the yharm happens

cloud ibex
#

i like to imagine the dragon of life gave their soul to silva willingly cause they were like "yeah no our time is over, you take it from here"

#

like a form of evolution

mighty zenith
#

i don't think their ascension should decide their fate

#

rather what they did with that power

#

so like
provi definitely deserves death

cloud ibex
#

as did the dragon of flame

untold oracle
gritty kraken
#

Silva should give her soul to John boomer wyrm now

real silo
#

Can't do that

#

Well she technically already did

reef wigeon
#

And as far as we know, only Providence was really a traitor (Or maybe I was wrong, but I did read up to that part of Calamity's lore)

#

Well to be a traitor you have to be friends with them first

cloud ibex
#

yeah

Provi definitely wasn't friends with fire dragon

Willow, Dragon of Life — his was a dream grand in its glory… and in its ultimate impossibility. The first Auric Dragon, he wished to see the world enveloped by all manner of ecosystems and lifeforms—with his kin at the top of its hierarchy, forever ruling as the benevolent overseers of the world. Freely given power, however, begets complacency, and the draconic kingdom fell to ruin at cosmic hands. The approach of death, his antithesis, humbled this dragon, diminishing his ambition—so he blessed the individual he felt best resonated with his dream and left the world in her hands.
Silva, Goddess of Life — hers is a dream both gentle and awe-inspiring. Having inherited grand power and entwined it with her own, Silva’s understanding of the deepest workings of the living world is unfathomable even to the greatest of mortal minds. She wishes to see her domain cover the world, all life equal in its unfettered brilliance.

wheat walrus
# reef wigeon It seems that the wiki people are against omni, because they say that Xeroc is u...

Not against me, just not really agree at all

If you're referring to FC/OC, some of their scaling wouldn't be too bad as I can get Calamity up to 4D (Universe Level+) and Low Multiverse Level (115 4D structures specifically); the thing is instead of using stuff like the tooltips they use Yharim Cynosure Item despite the fact that Yharim is so blatantly hyperbolic there; granted I did notice some dude changed up 1 or 2 pages with my scaling in FC/OC

But scrolling a bit it seems you're talking about the Spanish wiki with a title that translates to something like Limitless Fiction; I checked it once or twice but I'm pretty sure a guy I knew from here (Calmain) and FC/OC was working on it just based on how I saw him there; that guy prefers to scale Calamity through tooltips like I mentioned earlier, so 4D/Low Multi isn't unreasonable to him, we chill tho idrm this kinda scaling even if it's not really consistent with what we know happens in-universe (and what the devs say, but dev statements about specific power don't matter too much imo), I really only find stuff like Outerverse Level Calamity EoL and Slime God based on taking words to the utmost literal conceptual extent possible
