All go play fables so we can be friends and hold hands

Yeah dragonfolly should not be stronger than like Moon Lord, Leviathan, Deus, etc.

I didn’t know about the second evil bosses getting retiered
When are they now

Swapped with folly.

Fr? Dang

Can't wait for sunken sea fables there'll be a hundred trillion lines of dialogue for fables fans to talk about

#

Everything is a draconic offshoot, folly is somehow stronger than a duke fishron.

livid sandal
#

ok but not that strong

#

the wyvern eating thing may change to make they're new placement make sense

#

but evil 2 being the first post ml boss is so perfect

In my defence I was mislead by siffrin

I can see that their account name is melongun but what is the significance

What I’m gathering from this is
siffrin gun

livid sandal
#

🤔

livid sandal
#

Am... I... the significance?

woeful karma
#

YOU decide the signifcance of siffrin gun

livid sandal
#

not the right channel but is it true that you can still play the betas if your auric runs out

woeful karma
#

patreon perks are a one time purchase yes

wait seriously

#

how much is auric

i have that. in my wallet.

#

i could get it .

livid sandal
#

I feel like they should make that more obvious because that like quintuples my interest in giving them money

agile matrix
#

yes they really really should .

#

i thought it was 50$ a month and was like

#

"where the hell are you getting this money"

livid sandal
#

its 70 dollars for me

I have an idea for the final battle against Yharim

limpid saddle
normal carbon
#

PROPOSED DESIGN: FINAL ENCOUNTER WITH YHARIM
Concept: The Duel of Will and Redemption.
I. THE ENTRANCE: Warrior’s Reflection
Visual: The Terrarian enters without a helmet, showing facial scars.
Reaction: Yharim observes in silence, questioning the warrior’s choice to expose vulnerability before the ultimate battle.
II. COMBAT: "The Pure Path"
Condition: A Secret Ending activates if no potions are used during gameplay.
Phase 1 (Divine Chaos): Yharim attacks at supersonic speeds in an open sky arena.
Truce of Honor: Noticing the player’s pure Melee/no-elixir style, Yharim pauses, allowing natural recovery and recognizing an equal.
Phase 2 (Symphony of Steel): Sword duel focused on parries. Mandatory Rod of Discord use, accepting damage as a mark of honor.
III. THE CLIMAX: Breaking the Silence
At 1% health, Yharim falls: "What are you waiting for? Finish me..."
The Decision: [FORGIVE]
The Speech: The protagonist finally speaks: "I won’t be your executioner. Your punishment is to live and see this world flourish without tyrants. Rise, Warrior."
Response: "I sought someone strong enough to kill me... but never someone strong enough to forgive me."
IV. CLOSURE
Reward: Yharim hands over his helmet (The Weight of the Past).
Ending: A solemn moment under the open sky, symbolizing peace and the end of tyranny.

#

I would like the developers to see my proposal, but I don't know how to make them see it.

leaden bridge
#

If you let yharim live he should kill himself

light linden
#

I still want to trap him in the dungeon and destroy the entrance

noble falcon
#

His helmet turns the auric tesla armor into a powerful all-class set

robust osprey
#

though some folks might be mad beacuse they cant kill yharim

#

😔

random mulch
#

yharim doesn't intend to live long

#

you will either kill him or die trying

robust osprey
#

thats also true

leaden bridge
#

Not that the game would give you this choice but if it did he'd kill himself

random mulch
#

also his helmet would cause the same effect as touching auric ore because you're not attuned

robust osprey
#

not if you have auric

#

otherwise yeah

random mulch
#

i guess but you wouldn't be able to wear it

robust osprey
#

true

random mulch
#

would be a cool house decoration that launches anyone else who touches it at mach 2

dusk laurel
#

return the slab

robust osprey
#

but I'd get it as a trophy

normal carbon
robust osprey
leaden bridge
#

Yharim literally wants you to kill him

#

It's like, he wants to die it's the thing he wants to do

robust osprey
#

like really old

#

if you dont kill him or kills himself

#

he dies by age

leaden bridge
#

If you failed at that he'd do it himself stop wasting time frankly

robust osprey
#

which is lamer than the other 2 options

leaden bridge
#

Either way he's dying in like 10 years tops

#

Also he should be dead

#

like we don't think you can do fair trial for yharim you know

random mulch
#

yharim is definitely not one to deserve mercy

robust osprey
#

I mean if goku spared frieza

leaden bridge
#

okay but we're not Goku

robust osprey
#

speak for yourself

#

I heard you're pretty strong

noble falcon
#

The terrarian can be Goku if you want

abstract hedge
#

Yharim is worse than the worst real world dictators he definitely doesn't deserve to be spared.

robust osprey
noble falcon
#

We could sentence him to live with the angler and tax collector
Eternal penance

robust osprey
#

no tax collecor is pro yharim

plucky juniper
#

so when we spare him, he is forced to live the rest of his days in the worst possible fate

robust osprey
#

nah

noble falcon
robust osprey
#

the thing is

#

if yharon dies

#

yharim gets auric springlocked

plucky juniper
robust osprey
#

if yharon dies yharim automatically dies too

#

beacuse he's not attuned anymore

#

and the armor would reject him

#

thus, making an auric springlock

abstract hedge
robust osprey
#

that's true

abstract hedge
#

And is a very deserving fate for the Tyrant.

noble falcon
#

It’s not so much springlocked, more like getting stuck in an Iron Maiden hooked up to a bunch of loose active wiring
Which is still giga unpleasant

leaden bridge
#

What if instead of yharlamity mod it was yhorlamity mod

normal carbon
#

Okay, let me put it in terms you might understand a little better. Isn't the Terrarian supposed to be a hero? Having the option to spare him, and then having a conversation with Yharim at the end of the fight, wouldn't just end the cycle of death, blood, and war, but would signify the beginning of an era of peace, the end of a war that has lasted for many years. A beginning that doesn't start with an execution, but with redemption. But if the Terrarian kills Yharim, the Terrarian will simply become the next Yharim, continuing the cycle of death and war.

robust osprey
#

yhorm the castaway...

noble falcon
#

Yharim the kinda guy to say ‘yikes’ and ‘oh dearest me’ when he gets hurt

plucky juniper
#

im not staying around here for this discussion

robust osprey
plucky juniper
leaden bridge
#

Killing yharim does not make the terrarian yharim because there's no one to yharim anymore

robust osprey
#

YOU CAN MAKE THE TERRARIAN WORSE THAN YHARIM

#

🫵 🫵 🫵 🫵 🫵

leaden bridge

Overdone not wanting to participate in a conversation is like a really big red flag

"If you kill your enemies, you become them!" - Brainless imbeciles

robust osprey
abstract hedge
#

Has zero character and is just building cause why not

leaden bridge
#

Like don't get us wrong we should instate restorative justice and killing people really is never a solution for anything in a worthwhile just well developed society but trying to do it with this Yharim is an absurdly hollow attempt at being better than your enemies

abstract hedge
#

And won't do an actual playthrough until SSO part two

plucky juniper
#

rebecca said something about allowing a choice at the end with yharim, but its not about sparing him, its about if you agreed with his idea of wiping out the gods anyhow and taking up his mantle, since the old guy has actually lost all faith in himself

robust osprey
#

let's make it simple

plucky juniper
#

but you can, and you probably would, just disagree and clal him an idiot and he'd die sad

robust osprey
#

would you spare hitler?

abstract hedge
plucky juniper
#

that's just multiple-choice endings

icy veldt
leaden bridge
#

If you were really actually given the pro vs anti god choice they'd make it so you can ascend using Yharon's, but as has been discussed many times that is implausible

plucky juniper
#

yeahhh and while i disagree with that, that argument has repeated enough times

#

lets just leave it at that

noble falcon
abstract hedge
pulsar ocean
#

are low% runs the only way to not be like yharim and not be his successor

leaden bridge
#

Technically

plucky juniper
robust osprey
abstract hedge
#

Yeah

pulsar ocean
robust osprey
#

you can just not kill the 2 gods there

leaden bridge
#

Low% is technically the progod option

#

Pro everything actually

#

I just want to kill yharim route

#

Anyways yeah the issue with not killing yharim is that he's not a good character to do the morality thing with

icy veldt
#

Unfortunately it's not really possible to have a fully pro-Gods route like "I want to kill Yharim and everyone who has ever served him"

leaden bridge
#

That's what Calamitas is for

pulsar ocean
#

if you "spare" slime god by not killing him does queen slime become not canon

noble falcon
#

Calamitas been though a whole heck of a lot of stuff
I like that she’s chill

robust osprey
#

there

pulsar ocean
#

how do you skip golem

robust osprey
#

and cryo

robust osprey
abstract hedge
pulsar ocean
#

right

abstract hedge
#

You only need 9 bosses to beat the entire game (10 once Yharim) is added so you definitely can spare most things

light moth
abstract hedge
#

+You spare calamitas so you only kill 8 things

robust osprey
#

yharim used mechs to kill

abstract hedge
#

Then exos and mechs aren't alive so that removes a lot of guilt

robust osprey
#

skeletron is like top killing mech

light moth
#

Yeah I just thought that it isnt a necessity

abstract hedge
#

DoG and Fovos were both awful

robust osprey
#

dude we can't let prime be around

He meant nor-

#

Yeah

robust osprey
#

also I'm she

split mortar
#

O im dumb

robust osprey
#

they said everyone who served yharim so threw mechs there

#

and just would make the run slightly easier

#

lmao

leaden bridge
#

What if you kill yharim and then Yourself

#

There would be no wars that way

asgore isnt the only dreemur who kills themselves

#

infact, all of them do

icy veldt

leaden bridge
#

the only dreemurs that do not seemingly want to kill themselves are Kris (huge maybe on that one) and Tenna, the only dreemur confirmed to actually want to live

#

chara and asriel literally do a suicide pact

long scaffold
#

Dunno if Tenna counts

long scaffold
leaden bridge
#

asriel allows themselves to be kileld which is also just killing yourself

long scaffold
#

Not really

languid badge
#

I would say its killing yourself with extra steps but if anything its even less steps

leaden bridge
#

conjclusion is that the dreemurs are the goats of suicide

long scaffold
#

Toriel

languid badge
#

no but actually since when does tori or asgore kill themselves

long scaffold
languid badge
leaden bridge
#

flowey allows asgore to die on his own if you do a neutral after doinjg a neutral without a true reset

#

as a fakeout for the idea you've somehow dealt with him

long scaffold
leaden bridge
#

eitherway hes still very much fine with the idea of you killing him, which, again

#

goats of suicide

long scaffold
#

Toriel???

leaden bridge
#

we looked it up and found soemthing but its like absurdly made up and havent corroborated it

#

thats still 3 out of 4

#

okay so the made up thing isnt made up its jsut theresw an unused toriel death sprite called like toriel suicide so clearly thats 4 out of 4 suicide dreemurs even if its unused

long scaffold
#

Anyway back to the above topic
I doubt it’ll happen but I hope Calamity lets you pick a side on gods v Yharim through who you kill and don’t kill without crazy progression skips

leaden bridge
#

it wont

long scaffold
#

Makes sense

noble falcon
#

Low% players have a significantly easier time fighting Yharim since you showed up before he could finish putting together all of his attack patterns

#

Why doesn't killing providence cause a corruption or something?

#

Is it just presumed that I "cleaned up"

there's no one real sensible in universe explanation other than the idea you need lots of god crap for it

if you waited long enough (and assuming DoG doesn't scoop it up off screen) it'd probably turn into its own biome

like the other gods dont leave shit behind either

I mean yeah we dont kill them on mass like yharim did

And leave the corpses to fester for decades

are calamitas's horns a result of magic fuckery or was she born with them

long bloom
#

that's just what azafurians look like

#

gotcha

#

so azafurians aren't human im guessing

they're a race of humans probably

elfin aspen
#

ah

azafure was the first city ever, so this might be a chicken/egg situation

humans originate from hell

outside of the horns and different hair/skin colors they're largely the same

do they have tails or was that retconned/a fan thing

cuz i remember seeing art of scal with a tail

#

oh okay

#

also azafurians might be slightly more used to extreme heat?

i would hope HDfailure

Humans originating from the underground is actually kind of a requirement isn't it

light linden
#

eh

#

we still don't know how hot the surface was do we?

zenith geode
#

well we do know that it was too hot but like thats a really big range

leaden bridge
#

unless the master doc is wrong about that it outright states that until xeroc ascended the surface just wasn't really hospitable to anything but the "strongest and most resilient of things" so like

zenith geode
#

if i had to guess probably like 140f

#

hot enough for powerful things to live but not too hot for nothing to flourish

Yharim's scheme

#

the microscopic Auric Dragon of Amoebas was shockingly somehow overlooked when all the dragons were getting poached way back when, and he keeps it in a hamster ball in the aerie as his trump card

latent flower
#

a lot of people probably wernet living on the surface because

#

there were dragons there

#

aswell

#

Big scary

long bloom
#

dragons were mostly nice

#

they weren't living there because the sun was a deadly laser

#

until xeroc dimmed it

latent flower
#

wow thanks xeroc

#

has this guy really done anything bad

#

in his whole life

long bloom
#

you can't do anything bad if you don't do anything clueless

latent flower
#

he literally

#

made the earth livable

#

o wo

#

and idk i still think he and light dragon were friends

#

i don't think him taking the soul was a very bad thing morally

long bloom
latent flower
#

if he encouraged dragon genocide then yeah that's not good but idont think there's any evidence for taht

#

people just realized they can eat auric souls

long bloom
#

most likely what happened

#

the main (only) point of contention is whether zeratros consented to the ascension

#

which we don't know

latent flower
#

even if he didn't like

#

he was dying anyway to be honest...

#

i find it hard to believe he was entirely against it and even then regardless of morality the god ascension fanaticism was probably? a net good for humanity

#

before yharim killed everyone over it

#

and xeroc ascending definitely wouldve been a net good in a vacuum because like

#

a god of primordial light seems pretty important

#

yharim is just stupid

#

but that's just my cleeri view on it

noble falcon
latent flower
#

LOL true

#

the "morally grey" villain (committed genocide)

#

What do you MEAN you wanna kick my ass, I was so totally tubular for galavanting around town killing with reckless abandon

I left you the bees, didn’t I? Legally you can’t be mad

#

Random question: Has anyone ever thought about Permafrost's complicity in Yharim's reign?

#

The dude stuck with him for almost a century.

#

And only THEN he left after Ilmeris's incineration.

pliant ruin
#

which to be fair the answer for both is Yes but like they're Yes in a different way

sacred pilot
#

In this chat.

pliant ruin
#

Yeah people are aware dude worked for yharim

#

Not really a good thing but he did leave and regret his actions + At the very least his help was mostly with diplomatic affairs and city managing

latent flower
#

permafrost is so grandpa core

pliant ruin
#

being 400 does that to you usually

latent flower
#

i love him!

pliant ruin
#

well

#

usually no no it dosent

#

usually you're a skeleton by then

#

but permafrost is built different so

latent flower

is he 400 in grandpa terms or 400 in aang terms

pliant ruin
#

ahem

#

cool

pliant ruin
long bloom
pliant ruin
#

man 300, 400, 500

latent flower
#

like aang the last airbender is 112 years old but he's still a 12 year old

pliant ruin
#

point is

long bloom
latent flower
#

what im asking is is he only that old because he was frozen for all of it

latent flower
#

applause

pliant ruin
#

He like used ice magic to partially freeze himself so he can just

#

live really

#

really

#

really long

long bloom
#

permafrost just slowed down his aging dramatically
didn't get cryogenically frozen or anything

#

wait

pliant ruin
#

he will die of old age eventually it just takes a while. a long while

long bloom
#

cryogenically frozen

pliant ruin
#

hah.

latent flower
#

so he is literally like tortoise

pliant ruin
#

basically

#

like a tortoise but with ice magic

latent flower
#

i cast super slow metabolism

#

sooo like a normal tortoise??

pliant ruin
#

i assume the process was like really time-consuming and required alot of effort and dedication

#

and its why its not really something we've seen other characters replicate

#

i'm talking like

latent flower
#

i mean we also dont really know any other characters with ice magic

#

and i assume the regular wizard can probably do it some degree idk

#

and also YOU 🫵 🧑‍🦱

latent flower
#

i guess but permafrost is definitely the best at it isn't he

#

it's literally his name..

pliant ruin
#

he's the best at ice magic

and also just magic

long bloom
#

theory confirmed

pliant ruin
#

he's like literally just the best at magic overall he's john magic

latent flower
#

ice guy frozen in ice

#

named ice

#

old and ice coloured

#

but he also does all of it

pliant ruin
#

i'm cold!

latent flower
#

and is the best at all of it

pliant ruin
#

He specializes in ice magic

#

But he's also just renowed as the best mage in general worldwide

#

which is why he has the archmage title

#

he's just John Magic

latent flower
#

would be cool to see him do something

#

later down the line

pliant ruin
#

haha

#

cool

long bloom
latent flower
#

SHUT upt.

#

🐳

long bloom
#

she can still do shit like ice and necromancy

latent flower
#

blowhole attack

#

pliant ruin
#

necromancy and brimstone seem very closely tied to eachother anyways

long bloom
#

true but still at least slightly distinct

pliant ruin
#

calamitas should use and magic

#

to throw sand at you

#

throws sand at you

long bloom
#

turn sepulcher into desert scourge

#

both have arms

#

it works

latent flower
#

and permafrost is just grampsing around in the retirement home

#

might sell you a blue item or two

#

😭

long bloom
#

calamitas is the most powerful mage, permafrost is the most skilled

pliant ruin
#

Calamitas is stronger than Permafrost

#

Magic isn't all about like blowing stuff up

#

Permafrost is the greatest mage in the sense he has like 20 phds and is more knowledgeable about magic than anyone else

latent flower
#

oh

#

he's not really the best at magic he just like knows the most about it?

pliant ruin
#

He's the greatest mage but it dosen't necessarily mean he's the strongest

long bloom
#

he's the best at non-brimstone/necromancy magic

pliant ruin
#

Not really specifically that way

#

There could be people who can use other fields of magic better than him the same way calaitas can use brimstone magic better

latent flower
pliant ruin
#

But nobody is just overall more knowledgeable than he is

#

He knows exactly how magic works and can use that to research and create new spells, teach others about it, publish papers on shit i dunno

latent flower
#

does he do good magic or does he just know about it

#

😭

#

Calamitas can't really do any of that but she can blow stuff up good

pliant ruin
#

Again

#

Magic isn't all about blowing stuff up

long bloom
#

so pretty good i think

pliant ruin
#

Magic in calamity is a science

#

Because it's Real

latent flower
#

so he teaches it to them but they're the ones that actually do it

agile matrix
#

the Maths of Magic is a real thing

pliant ruin
#

ok lets say magic is like.a gun right

agile matrix
#

learning from him is kinda like learning how to cook from the best chef in the world

latent flower
#

i don't think im understanding because im hearing so much about how smart he is but i just want to know if he's actually capable of performing magic to this degree

#

or if he's just like a guy

#

like say he's a fitness coach

long bloom
#

well he is a guy

#

magic guy

agile matrix
#

are you asking for a powerscale

latent flower
#

is he a really skinny fitness coach but he could get you fit asf because he knows all about the science of it even if he doesn't really do it himself

#

or is he like jacked

pliant ruin
#

He does magic

#

He shoots things with ice ingame

agile matrix
#

scal > permafrost in terms of sheer power, but permafrost was the one who taught her to not Kill Fucking Everyone

pliant ruin
#

Perma's the one who got scal to actually control her power

#

At first she had no way to actually handle it

agile matrix
#

nod

pliant ruin
#

as seen by the Incident

long bloom
#

how do you think he's so old
he does special bullshittium ice magic he invented on himself 24/7

pliant ruin
#

Azafure one i mean

agile matrix
#

That One Time She Incinerated A Place

#

no not that time the other time

long bloom
#

"one" clueless

pliant ruin
#

ALso yeah we did literally say in this chat he made himself have a extremely long lifespan

#

through ice magic

#

so

agile matrix
long bloom
#

2

pliant ruin
#

two... smh

#

slander

#

she'd NEVER incinerate five places come on thats TOO FAR. two though yeah she did to that

#

ok well

#

more like

#

1.5

agile matrix
#

its half slander half “she’s really good at Killing People”

pliant ruin
#

1.5 places

latent flower
#

ok i just find it hard to wrap my head around like ... he knows the most about magic and is the greatest mage ever but is not the most powerful mage ever

#

some mages just

long bloom
agile matrix
#

both are really good, ones just far more devastating

pliant ruin
#

Permafrost is a pacifist, he's not much of a fighter

agile matrix
pliant ruin
#

magic is not always used to Fight People

#

You could use like magic to power a car or some shit i dunno

latent flower
#

ok let me rephrase

#

instead of most powerful

agile matrix
#

wheres that one Handplates comic section where asgore talks about how fire could devastate but also warm

latent flower
#

because i don't really mean power in terms of explosion

#

but um

#

he's the most capable?

pliant ruin
#

yeah

latent flower
#

rather than most powerful

agile matrix
#

he knows the most about magicks that we know of

latent flower
#

yeah that's what i meant

#

i wasn't using power to just mean blowing stuff up

agile matrix
#

he’s the smartiest (nerd alert!!!!!)

long bloom
latent flower
#

some mages are just better at things

agile matrix
#

i cant say nerd alert im passing english with flying colors.

latent flower
#

i assume permafrost will never be able to blow stuff up like calamitas does

long bloom
#

yeah no

#

also he doesn't want to

latent flower
#

he can know as much about blowing stuff up as oppemheimer himself but calamitas just has that secret sauce

agile matrix
#

permafrost likes to

#

heh

long bloom
#

the link i sent explains how brimstone magic works

agile matrix
#

Chill™

latent flower
#

seems handy dandy

latent flower
#

because people were talking a lot about how smart he is

#

but that doesn't actually mean anything

#

some people have that secret sauce

#

it's really about how much of it you have

#

unless only brimstone magic works like that because i havebt read the doc yet idk

agile matrix
#

scal blew up a town once when they were little

#

doesnt mean theyre Better than perma, they just do a lot better at nuking

latent flower
#

yeah she has a lot of secret sauce

agile matrix
#

no see thats star wars

pliant ruin
#

Cal is kind of a special case

#

since she didn't really ever learn how to Magic she just kinda ???? something something brimtstome elemental ???? something somethign

latent flower
#

someone said she attuned to the brimstone elemental and i was like nod nod makes sense

#

idk if that's confirmed but it makes sense

#

as a possible thing

long bloom
#

no

#

you can't attune to elementals

#

and if you could for some reason, that's never been said by a writer

latent flower
#

yeah i mean

#

says who though

#

it makes sense to me

long bloom
#

it's dragon exclusive as far as we know

latent flower
#

as far as we know

#

but it's a fun idea i think

long bloom
#

one sec

#

hm

#

well

latent flower
#

owo

long bloom
#

idk

#

i've never seen it theorized that you could attune to someone other than a dragon, but this explanation doesn't rule it out
#lore-discussion message

latent flower
#

i mean i think auric souls are concepts and elementals as materials

#

so when you attune with a soul you kinda overlap with that concept and get some cool powers relating to it similar to the power the dragon gets from the soul or whatever

#

but if you do that with an elemental

long bloom
#

yeah elementals are kinda just
there

latent flower
#

you get some of that material

long bloom
#

i'm not even completely sure they have conventional souls to begin with

latent flower
#

so if calamitas were to attune with the brimstone elemental

#

she'd get some of that genuine embodiment of just

#

actual brimstone

#

the physical thing

#

hence why she is so good at

#

throwing brimstone everywhere

long bloom
latent flower
#

the concept vs material thing is like

#

pretty much already ingame

#

it's not outright confirmed i don't think

#

but auric souls are definitely embodiments of concepts and elementals literally draw from

long bloom
#

we have no idea what elementals are about

latent flower
#

the elements

long bloom
latent flower
#

matter

latent flower
#

like elementals are the body of the earth

#

and auric souls are the soul of the earth (wow...)

long bloom
#

perhap

latent flower
#

elemental / auric pairs would probably be very powerful then like silva

#

because it is like two halves of a whole

#

and you stick em together and get Tbe Undying Lady

#

the gurl of life

long bloom
#

well
her not dying ability comes from being an elemental

#

the god stuff helps but it was like that before

latent flower
#

yeah i mean you'd kinda have to

#

kill the earth

#

to do that

long bloom
#

this is true

latent flower
#

under this interpretation

long bloom
#

canonically, to permanently kill an elemental, you have to completely eradicate their element from terraria

#

so for silva, you'd have to destroy all life

#

including yourself

latent flower
#

somewhat counterproductive

#

i would imagine

long bloom
#

this is why people keep throwing her in the abyss

#

it's the only way to get rid of her for any significant amount of time

latent flower
#

we chill in the abyss just fine why can't she just leave

#

😭

#

must not have abyssal diving gear shaking my celeri head

long bloom
#

because she was diced like an onion

#

and now looks like this

latent flower
#

side note dicing onions SUCKS i ts lame

latent flower
#

when do we eat it

#

how cool would be it be to eat the silva fruit

long bloom
#

it's her soggy revive pod

latent flower
#

LITERALLY a fruit by the way

#

assuming it is flowering

#

it's sooo edible

#

you want to eat it soo bad ooooooo

visual kiln

hiii chat

hello azthoth!!

hiii celeri

how you

#

did you do anything fun for new year

#

🐳

agile matrix
#

other than text description, do we know anything else abt the hellfire continet

split mortar
feral skiff
cloud ibex
#

cause it wasn't annihilated she just got pulped

#

if it was annihilated there wouldn't have been anything left to throw in the abyss

#

plus, even if her body was completely destroyed, she would still be able to reform, it would just take longer because she wouldn't have anything to start from

feral skiff
#

she eats leaves and then wraps a cocoon around herself to turn into butterfly

agile matrix
#

that would be really cool to see tbh

#

silva emerging and completely overgrowing azafure

craggy sparrow
#

then a person found it and dragged it onto a church only to rip the cocoon open and drink its fluids

dusk laurel

i just wanted to draw some parallels it would be pretty dark but sick ngl

Guys please

#

we're getting layer 3

#

the game is getting better i swear

agile matrix
#

i've heard nothing but hate about that game

feral skiff
#

the new-player experience is terrible and you are not handheld

#

if you think the game is good, you have likely been playing it for tens of hours

craggy sparrow
#

I have

#

500hrs

feral skiff
#

enjoying deepwoken as a new player is the equivalent of playing “Getting Over It” except the mountain is 10x taller

#

anyways we’re getting off topic here

pulsar ocean
#

you should be able to turn off pvp

feral skiff
#

please say something about the lore to steer us back onto course

craggy sparrow
#

Is yharim bald

random mulch
#

Probably

leaden bridge
#

Yharim was actually born without hair

pulsar ocean
#

is yharim wearing a wig

random mulch
#

What would yharim's favorite metamorphic rock be

craggy sparrow
#

Did yharim use cramped npc housing

random mulch
leaden bridge
random mulch
#

Good choice

craggy sparrow
#

Does it bother you guys a bit

#

that were just

#

going to go to a mans crib

#

kill everything

#

take everything he owns

#

then kill him too and leave

random mulch
#

Nah

#

He pretty much did that a couple million times over

#

That's just called "irony"

feral skiff
#

Kill the Killers

craggy sparrow
#

We even took his huzz (archmage)

#

and his daughter

feral skiff
#

but if the Kill the Killer does that make us the Killer too?

feral skiff
craggy sparrow
#

He did commit 5gazillion genocides

leaden bridge
#

If you kill a killer.,.,. The number of killers in the world doesn't change.,.,.,..,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,...,.,..,.,,.,.,.,.,,

feral skiff
#

so nothing really changes

feral skiff
#

it’s over.. we really were designed to be Yharim 2.0

craggy sparrow
#

My terrarian is mlk

#

He will liberate everyone

leaden bridge
craggy sparrow
agile matrix
#

hell, i've (chuckling) i've killed so many! so many killers!

rose panther
cosmic zenith
real silo
#

Ohhh

#

so that's why our ancestors are called cavemen

leaden bridge
#

stip what do you think about azafurians can barely smell anything and calamitas likes flowers because theyre one of the only things she can like smell

errant swallow
#

whats the lore of the lore items

#

like why is yharim whispering in my ear

limpid saddle
dusk laurel
#

we got that dog in us

#

after all, the terrarian is definitely evil and morally corrupt theterrarianisevilandsoareYOU because we're defending ourselves from all of the hostile things on the continent

pulsar ocean
#

is permafrost human

cosmic zenith
#

Especially considering that high olphactory sensitivity to vegetation would probably be helpful to the point of being naturally selected among Underworld-adjacent populations

leaden bridge
#

your nose and lungs would probably also not be like great if you inhale sulphur fumes all day you know so its like

limpid olive
#

like

#

why do we even kill plantera

dusk laurel
#

most summon items arent canon

limpid olive
#

or golem

#

or any of the fishrons

#

or bumblebirb

dusk laurel
#

and you dont have to kill every single boss

#

like most bosses are optional

limpid olive
#

plant birb golem are all mandatory for progression

dusk laurel
#

something something you decide what your terrarian does

limpid olive
dusk laurel
limpid olive
#

no matter what your personal lore is, the actions you have to take to progress are evil

#

like ok killing PBG or like skeletron are morally good

dusk laurel
#

what did skeletron do to you, unless you consider it a mercy kill

limpid olive
#

to free the clothier

#

:lo:

dusk laurel
#

okay yeah thats fair then

#

but yeah most bosses that attack you usually just ambush you unprovoked

limpid olive
#

the mechs and eoc

#

thats about it

#

no other boss comes after you unprovoked

#

we're no better than yharim no matter what

dusk laurel
#

thats not even true

limpid olive
#

how

mighty zenith
#

its not potrayed in gameplay because having almost every single boss spawn on its own would be annoying

dusk laurel
#

again, most summon items/methods arent canon (and itd be really dumb if they were) bosses like ds, eoc, yharon, mechs, scal, etc etc attack you because they want to

mighty zenith
#

but yes most bosses are aggressive from the getgo

dusk laurel
#

desert scourge

limpid olive
#

ah mk

mighty zenith
#

there is also no world in which you could be worse than yharim in casualties

limpid olive
#

not necessarily in sheer numbers

#

but the mission is similar

#

kill things

mighty zenith
#

the mission is up to YOU!

#

sorry

#

brainrot

limpid olive
#

i mean you can just load up the game and do no killing

#

so yeah

dusk laurel
#

most of the things you kill attack you first lmao

#

or are undead

limpid olive
#

yeah regular enemies for sure

#

i understand that

mighty zenith
#

its mostly wild animals, killing machines (both figuratively and literally) and assholes

#

queen bee is provoked, aquatic scourge is provoked, draedon is called by you

#

everyone else wants you dead first

limpid olive
#

duke and old duke

#

plant

#

golem

#

cultist

mighty zenith
#

well golem is basically a security system true

limpid olive
#

jared

mighty zenith
#

duke and old duke are sea monsters who wouldve attacked you anyway

limpid olive
#

fair

#

GOD im so pissed that we're not getting a silva boss fight or more silva content she's my goat (or deer technically)

#

anyway i think i get it now

mighty zenith
#

idk why she'd fight you really

limpid olive
#

because im going in the abyss and poking her with my sword

mighty zenith
#

she has her pet dog there to eat you

#

ahe herself is barely even alive

#

a vegetable

limpid olive
#

oh do we know that?

#

what stage of her reincarnation shes in at the time of gameplay

mighty zenith
#

yeah she's mutilated and slowly recovering

#

we dunno how far she's made it but she cant speak or do anything so probably not far

limpid olive
#

mk

leaden bridge
#

what if the terrarian was morallyg rey medias with unnecesary sex scenes

mighty zenith
#

morally gay

leaden bridge
#

jwheh n u get corrupted frm that thing

split mortar
limpid olive
#

cool whos gonna make the mod which lets me obliterate silva for the third time

#

back to the abyss for the third time he ho

split mortar
#

A silva fight wouldnt be that interesting she is not kitted out for it most likely
Much more support based powers due to life goddess and nature elemental

light linden
#

you severely underestimate what they could do

limpid olive
#

you severily underestimate how powerful the terrarian is

#

the terrarian can no hit scal

languid badge
#

pw but silva chips in to help out

woeful karma
#

my terrarian dies to a green slime on day 1

light linden
#

trap you underwater

woeful karma

beam that gives you cancer

limpid olive

sorry silva

languid badge
#

magic mirror

limpid olive

you cant mirror from the abyss

split mortar
woeful karma
#

calamity mod now depends on persistent player position

languid badge
split mortar
limpid olive
#

what

languid badge
#

why would you not be able to

split mortar
#

Magic mirror does not inflict chaos state so it does not anger jared

limpid olive
#

is it infernum exclusive

#

one sec

languid badge
split mortar
#

Dont think infernum does either

limpid olive
#

you cant teleport at all in the abyss something about the pressure

split mortar
#

Are you mistaking primordial wyrm spawning due to rod of discords chaos state with a total ban on teleportation

limpid olive
split mortar
#

What the fuck how did i get out the abyss then when i played

limpid olive
#

idk

light linden
#

and I've beaten the game like 8 times

limpid olive
#

might be infernum exclusive i havent played vanilla calamity in 6 playthroughs

light linden
#

it definitely is

zenith geode
limpid olive
#

yup infernum exclusive alr my bad

pulsar ocean
mighty zenith
#

her name would also be Nirvana

say that again

wheat ibex
#

wait so what is that weird vortex that calamitas sends towards you in the battle

dusk laurel
split mortar
wheat ibex
#

is it a black hole

split mortar
#

Nothing in calamity is remotely close to being able to make one

wheat ibex
#

well idk

split mortar
# wheat ibex well idk

No its just the case a blackhole is obscenely far too much for a verse of not even planet breakers to make

wheat ibex
#

well i asked what it was

#

not what it isnt'

split mortar
#

And i answered her strongest attack
Its not touched on in game what it is so we lack info on it

wheat ibex
#

you couldve just said that

split mortar
wheat ibex
#

no

#

i mean the part where we dont know what it is

light linden
#

it's some type of brimstone magic

split mortar
#

Its from the brimstone witch i imagine the goes without saying

wheat ibex
#

idk im not really in the calamity lore

split mortar
#

Its her npc name

wheat ibex
#

i knew who she was

#

i didnt know that she couldnt use anything but brimstone magic

split mortar
#

??

wheat ibex
#

wdym '??'

split mortar
#

Because thats not the case
She is just massively better at necromancy and brimstone then other magics to the point its best to use em in a fight
She did make cryogen

wheat ibex
split mortar
#

Ah fair

abstract hedge
#

It's never mentioned so we don't really know what it is but I doubt it's anything too special.

wheat ibex
#

does draedon have any like combat droids he can control (like any specialised ones) because he has probably a lot of combat data so i assume if he ultimately has to he can remotely control a combat body right?

split mortar
#

Yeah definitely
The exos could have been controlled by draedon but a specialised ai made for them was prolly more efficient

wheat ibex
#

ok

#

also how did yharim get draedon again? i heard somehwere that in the old lore yharon/calamitas traveled into space to find him but i assume that was rewritten

split mortar
wheat ibex
#

was there a major reason the lore was rewritten or was it just disasitfaction

limpid saddle
#

it was all hype moments & aura & there was nothing consistent

split mortar
limpid saddle
#

xeroc was omniversal & the DoG was too because he could just eat everything to become infinetly powerful

split mortar
#

Mfw providence was made by an angel and demon war thats not elaborated on beyond that

wheat ibex
limpid saddle
#

Yharim slammed his fist so hard into a table everyone in the room died & the reverberations were felt on the other side of the planet

split mortar
#

Also everything always like 1% of their true potential

wheat ibex
limpid saddle
#

& now he's been publically executed

split mortar
#

Slimegod somehow having the potential to be the strongest ever by absorbing all slimes on the planet or something like that

wheat ibex
split mortar
#

P sure the ideas were connected but not fully sure

wheat ibex
#

kk

split mortar
#

And goozma got shot in LA anyways and noxus replaced em as the canon post yharim evil guy

wheat ibex
#

i kinda liked having the characters be really strong but it definetly went too far in the old lore

limpid saddle
# wheat ibex fabsol was on EVERYTHING

once he told me in a chat i had with him in i think spoiler talk he didnt like people calling Cirrus a 'queen' because he inherently associates the word 'queen' with drag in a negative connotation

split mortar
limpid saddle
#

which was honestly REALLY telling

split mortar
#

Yes the pre providence boss

wheat ibex
strong notch
limpid saddle
#

who's winning the hotdog eating contest providence or deus

wheat ibex
split mortar
#

True we live on super jupiter thats the size of 30000 stars

wheat ibex
strong notch
#

something like in pokemon world where some of them are ridiculously overpowered but then you look at what humans do in that universe

wheat ibex
#

i love how the game will use language like 'yharim giga destroyed the infinty shi and absolutely demolished the googitygobbily ' and then the devs say "nah trust yharim loses in an arm wrestle to a 5 year old

split mortar
#

The game no longer says stuff like that since the rewrite is more thought out

limpid saddle
#

nothing really says anything like that

#

everything is updated its just, missing alot of extra information

wheat ibex
#

i wish the characters were a little stronger because it doesnt make anything actually impressive anymore

#

the old lore was way to over the top

limpid saddle
split mortar
#

I think being able to wipe out italy in days to weeks is impressive

limpid saddle
#

Yharim sparked a generational war that killed 300,000,000 people

wheat ibex
limpid saddle
#

i always forget the exact number

split mortar
limpid saddle
pulsar ocean

whats the calamity population

wheat ibex

i meant like
