i don't think not knowing much about the land implies that you couldn't have been a peasant farmer who had their town destroyed by a godseeker testing out the SHPC

wanton pendant
#

I only meant in a 'if you take this line completely literally' sense.

eternal veldt
#

Well to be fair the continent might have been huge

west plume
#

i don't think you should because draedon is a computer with loads of servers and hard drives that is constantly collecting and analyzing data 👍

#

his perspective of 'knowing' about the land is really skewed due to that

robust osprey
#

the terrarian is from the terrarian generator machine

eternal veldt
#

Terrarian might just have been a normal farmer that was not affected by anything

west plume
#

'you were grown in a vat of green goo by mr. evil scientist' is a valid origin tho so it's kinda difficult to write around

eternal veldt
#

To be fair anything could be possible. I think that's the fun in it

west plume
#

i think some of calamity's ability to tell it's own story falls apart since we can't rely on the player's implied or observational knowledge at all since literally anything can be possible

#

but i think it's a good compromise to not restrict any players who r lore fans from roleplaying whatever they want

eternal veldt
#

You can simply give players choices.

#

Scope creep...

draedon watching you replicate an endless amount of miracle matter from thin air after studying it for a lil bit

eternal veldt
#

Honestly you just tanking his greatest creations is worst 😭

plucky juniper
#

the real issue with "terrarian is up to you!" thing is that the various statements here showcase that there are, in fact, some specifics to the terrarian in mind

#

as well as ingame behavior that implies things about the terrarian

#
  • they're not a god, otherwise yharim wouldn't be so "nice" to you
  • they're not an auric dragon otherwise auric ore wouldn't reject you
  • the terrarian is actually an absurdly good engineer and forgemaster. they were able to create an armor set similar to yharim's that could replicate auric immunity, and were able to replicate draedon's forge and stabilize miracle matter, which was enough for draedon to cede the naming rights to the terrarian
#

also the codebreaker

#

i think the terrarian started out as a talented blacksmith or something similar

eternal snow
plucky juniper
#

no

#

nothing says that they cant be one tho

raven brook
#

Ok i think there's a bit more going on than just that for me to say they're not an auric dragon

#

You say they lack the Auric part but i think it's worth noting, of coruse,

#

As one may expect and perceive

#

The rather important part of information regards to the nature of the Terrarian,

#

the lack of Dragon

eternal snow
#

How does this affect powerscalling

raven brook
eternal snow
#

Unless the terrarian is emotionless like frisk and you slapped some lore on it

eternal veldt
#

It's the terrarian you can make shit up

#

Ofc when making up the story you still have to consider early game limitations. All RPG games does this

#

You can't be just god from the start

#

Unless ofc you really want to. There is always a way for that

#

All comes down to imagination and how much you wanna larp

plucky juniper
eternal veldt
eternal veldt
#

All comes down to creative writing honestly

wanton pendant
#

Anyway, Terrarian is basically Skyrim rules.

eternal snow
# wanton pendant What?

You know this when they make the mc silent so you can project yourself or your lore onto it

do we know anything concrete about the powercouple's personalities?

I'm being normal about blorbos again is my reasoning

timber glacier

Which powercouple are you refering to

frail hearth
#

who else? Signus and Brealor. If they're not the most powerful couple in the mod they're certainly a contender for that title >u>

I don't count Yahrim and Yahram as a power couple cus they're not mackin on each other so it dosen't count

they're more dynamic dou energy

ive noticed recently its been only in this channel

#

like specifically that kind of scam

worldly spindle
#

Oh? Interesting

eager bluff
#

now granted recently ive only been online for two of them but it is strange that they seem to have not hit any other channels

feral skiff
#

is this survivorship bias

eager bluff
#

no because im not even seeing channels lighting up

#

a bot doesnt spend 5 minutes not throwing scam links in as many channels as it can

plucky juniper
#

i certainly think its still a bot, given what i was able to see of their pfp (probably ai-generated "well-endowed" woman) and what they posted

#

knowing about how theres discord channels that are using honeypot trap channels to obliterate bots who spam stuff on all channels

#

i could fancibly suggest its a slightly more advanced bot that isnt? i dunno

#

not spamming shit on all channels

#

Draedon caught us saying he’d lose to Metal Sonic so he sent his finest scam bots to promote ExoCoin

agile matrix
#

wait what

#

who said that how would he lose

nimble mist
#

Robotnik himself versus Draedon would be a fairer contest

#

Metal Sonic would be going up against the Hardmode Mech Bosses in that case I think

mighty zenith
#

i think if we're including ALL of eggman's mechs

#

then he wins

#

i dont think exo mechs can beat stuff like Egg Dragoon, Metal Overlord or the Death Egg Robots from forces

#

all at once

sinful adder
#

Metal sonic is like way stronger than all of eggman's other stuff combined

terse moss
#

Wait Eggman kills Draedon

#

the sonic universe has like the most insane scaling ever for no reason at all

mighty zenith
#

though yeah it has ridiculous scaling

terse moss
#

True

#

even outside of those you get to like multiversal for some god forsaken reason

mighty zenith
#

mostly thanks to sonic 06

terse moss
#

Sonic ping pongs between multiversal and like building level every game

mighty zenith
#

cause solaris is like. time itself or something

terse moss
#

yeah

#

whatever solaris is

mighty zenith
#

fucking idk i dont remember that game's plot

#

cause its ass

terse moss
#

Also like metal overlord

#

or the boss in frontiers

mighty zenith
#

The End took Super Sonic and Sage controlling one of the titans

#

neo metal can both turn super from the master emerald and can transform into metal overlord who required 12 people to be beaten, including super sonic

terse moss
#

Also didn't eggman cut the moon in half or something

#

like no matter how you slice it, Draedon gets walked

mighty zenith
#

with the space colony ARK yeah

terse moss
#

"Take that Obama"

mighty zenith
#

the eclipse cannon is strong enough to destroy the planet

#

though tbf it wasnt eggman's

terse moss
#

Still

#

Eggman has made like half a dozen things, each of which scale like 5 tiers higher than exos

mighty zenith
#

yeah eggman wins just by the pure numbers

#

metal overlord could probably solo everything draedon has

terse moss
#

oh easily

#

regular metal could

mighty zenith
#

ehh, base metal isnt that strong

#

neo metal i can believe though

#

that data copy is crazy

terse moss
#

Isn't base metal comparable to base sonic, some versions of which could easily beat exos

#

depends on the version tho

mighty zenith
#

base metal has been a real jobber nowadays

#

like losing to surge, who isnt as strong as sonic afaik

terse moss
#

Huh

#

I will admit, I am not super up to date on sonic lore, I just know the general vibes

mighty zenith
#

though my memory of later idw is hazy

#

ive only read it once

terse moss
#

Calamity scales really low and tbh I like that because it feels more grounded, in a sense

#

Like it feels like actual combats with stakes

mighty zenith
#

sonic scaling is kind of all over the place so

terse moss
#

True

#

as with any comic or anything with a bunch of versions

#

Thats why I dislike things like "can Superman beat Goku" taking the strongest superman ever is the equivalent of taking some like wacko fan goku

#

Like there is no consistency in the scaling of superman, but there is onyl one canon Goku, so he is easier to work with

#

trying to compare them is apples to oranges

#

which Superman? There are thousands

mighty zenith
#

pretty much

terse moss
#

Keeping sclaing lower fixes a lot of tehse issues imo

#

less likely for plot holes too

wanton pendant
#

Solaris was not time itself.
It ate time.

#

Also Eggman once built a weapon that was significantly stronger than the Eclipse Cannon, used it once and it was promptly absorbed by Emerl.

#

eh

eternal veldt
#

The ocs atleast. Normal sonic im pretty sure is pretty powerful already

mighty zenith
#

i think most people moved on from making overpowered OCs

#

thats more of an early 2010s thing

eternal veldt
#

Hopefully

wanton pendant
#

Now they make Sonic.exe ocs.

mighty zenith
#

pretty much

#

though some are actually pretty cool

#

i like rewrite

eternal veldt
#

Wait are we comparing sonic to calamity bosses and stuff?

mighty zenith
#

that was the topic before

#

draedon vs eggman

eternal veldt
#

Hmm.. that doesn't seem fair

wanton pendant
#

Completely unfair matchup.
Draedon would actually die.

eternal veldt
#

Sonic characters are already busted as hell...

fathom locust
#

metal solos the entire verse already

wanton pendant
#

What next, Solaris Vs. Xeroc?

eternal veldt

#

Either way i hate scaling characters with alot of versions.

#

Im just gonna look at the story if it's shit or not

sinful adder
wanton pendant
#

Cease.

sinful adder
#

This is how I justify eggman's complete lack of aura

fathom locust
#

he only lacks aura if its against sonic

#

everyone else he bodies

mighty zenith
sinful adder
#

Ok sometimes I guess

wanton pendant
#

Is that where he killed that guy?

fathom locust
eternal veldt
#

Eggman pretty sure can go toe to toe with sonic

wanton pendant
#

He works out.

mighty zenith
#

i dont remember if starline died there but eggman did toss him around like a ragdoll

eternal veldt
#

Although maybe that's because eggman does have crazy sonic shit. If he did came into the calamity world with only calamity materials i can see the vision

wanton pendant
fathom locust
#

i think it was indirectly but yes he did kill him

eternal veldt
#

But then again... a crackhead with a fancy space scissors could body draedon's machines...

mighty zenith
wanton pendant
mighty zenith
#

i do hope he stays dead

eternal veldt
wanton pendant
#

You say that as if it's an actual super power.

eternal veldt
#

It's plot armor

mighty zenith
#

its some powerscaling shit i think

eternal veldt
#

Fancy plot armor for cartoon characters

wanton pendant
#

Powerscalers just make stuff up.

#

Apparently they think literally everyone in Castlevania has infinite speed.

eternal veldt
#

I mean there is no way to explain how cartoon characters does stuff

wanton pendant
#

It's cartoon logic not an intrinsic ability of the characters.

eternal veldt
#

It's really funny cuz im pretty sure uncle grandpa can solo every verse

cloud ibex
#

yeah because it's a cartoon it's not meant to make sense it's meant to be funny

cloud ibex
#

bugs bunny can beat anyone unless it would be really fucking funny if he didn't

#

same with saitama

eternal veldt
#

Saitama is a bit different though

cloud ibex
#

no in the early seasons that's pretty much him

#

he oneshots everyone until he goes up against a fucking mosquito and loses

eternal veldt
#

Probobly. Later seasons though his powers got defined more

wanton pendant
#

With Saitama it actually is an intrinsic ability of him. That's the whole point.
(Although he only has to be stronger than everyone else in One Punch Man. It doesn't matter whether or not he can beat Goku for instance.)

eternal veldt
#

Yep saitama's thing was he is more powerful no matter how strong his enemy is.

#

But that's been a rule in the series

#

Wow this place got really off topic. Calamity lore been dry huh. 😭

split mortar
worthy sierra
#

what are the potential men of calamity

leaden bridge
#

All of them

wanton pendant
#

Xeroc.

#

He never appears in game I don't count the bossrush eye

feral skiff
#

it’s an indirect appearance but it still counts

robust osprey
#

his reveal will be crazy!!! his motives will blow your mind!!!

wanton pendant
#

Statis motive: I like men.

fathom locust
#

this is the reason he didnt kill yharim

noble falcon
#

As long as there are men in existence other than himself, he cannot die in a way that matters
This is his secret strength

timber glacier
#

That suggest hes the man elemental cos thats how they work

eternal veldt
#

Ok quick question. Who owned the murasama?

fathom locust
#

me because im awesome

#

(((it has no lore relevance)))

mighty zenith
#

you can make up a reason for it if you want as a headcanon but it has no place in the official lore

eternal veldt
#

I see so it's like a dev item

mighty zenith
#

pretty much

#

its like deerclops

#

literally just a thing from another game

eternal veldt
mighty zenith
#

enchanted sword isnt a direct reference to another game

eternal veldt
#

Ark is basically just an upgraded enchanted sword

mighty zenith
#

so its just like, an ancient sword

#

magically infused sword or something

eternal veldt
#

I see i thought it would have some kind of lore

mighty zenith
#

not really

#

most weapons themselves dont have much lore significance

eternal veldt
#

Well ig it leaves up to the players imagination

mighty zenith
#

they just give insight into other things

#

like the exhumed weapons being interesting due to giving us calamitas' perspective

#

not due to the weapons themselves

leaden bridge
#

john ancient put it there before the crusade hoping it'd grow strong enough to defeat yharim by now but forgot to make the sword of a good material that can actually hold that much power

eternal veldt
#

LMAO

#

I wonder if i can write a fanfiction about tis.

leaden bridge
#

You can do anything. Should you do anything?

eternal veldt
#

Ehh probobly. It's not gonna touch any events from calamity. I just wanna focus on the sword itself. So i can larp while using it >:D

#

Enchanted sword carried me till calamitas after all 😭

It's the Amateur Sword. It's like the Master Sword except it sucks.

#

Hot take here I think all the god bosses should be hardmode bosses. God Slime being a pre hardmode boss makes zero sense

wanton pendant
#

That might change.

graceful warren
#

I mean i dont mind god slime even being the first god you fight. Symbolizing he is one of the weaker gods

robust osprey
#

like. beating EoC already could earn you the title of local legend

#

or something

#

iirc

eternal veldt
#

You fought its paladins

graceful warren
#

Okay fair but also like same difference

split mortar
#

Also compared to most things slime god is still stronger then most

graceful warren
#

Okay i mean all that is fair but you defeating him in prehard mode. Just to fight him again in hardmode just seems kinda werid

split mortar
eternal veldt
#

Calclone wouldn't make sense either

eternal veldt
graceful warren
#

Yeah that's fair

raven brook
#

its not really about it making sense becasue you can amke "sense" out of either of these fights being wherever

#

it's about what's narratively satisfying and also satisfying from a gameplay perspective

eternal veldt
#

Well it does make sense that's why it's satisfying

raven brook
#

As #1 sg hater i think slime god's current placement is Ass

#

i'm more indifferent towards calclone's placement tho idm her being swapped with sg if it means dude gets to be tier shifted

#

Queen slime's existence throws a massive wrench on Slime God's placement nad it shows with the, bandaid fix writers had to thrown in to justify it

#

Me fighting the modded boss and to get a rematch foreshadowed only for the rematch to not only be like only 2 bosses i nprogression later, but it's also a vanilla fight, and one of the worst vanilla fights, and also unless you read the queen slime whisper there would be no way to tell that queen slime is slime god in the narrative

#

imagine a post-eoc boss called the Lord of the Swarm and then you fight it and it escapes

#

and you get a rematch hyped up for it

#

yeah sorry the rematch was just Queen Bee actually

#

you can only find this out through reading the queen bee whisper that drops from it

long bloom
eternal veldt
#

LMAO

#

I mean...

raven brook
#

Communicating the lore properly is something the writers are responsible for

#

ANd they're awrae of this

#

Well, not just the writers, of course

eternal veldt
#

Alot of people actually thought yharim was a good guy

raven brook
#

Programmers, artists etc would also contribute

#

If the only single communication of a lore element is a bit of infodump in a item that is generally not good communication and i mean

#

that's a known issue

#

There is absolutely nothing communicating that queen slime is slime god other than

  1. its a slime, i guess?
  2. the lore whisper
graceful warren
#

I mean manly queen slime needs a redesign. To make it look like its slime god

raven brook
#

this is Not good communication of the fact it is Slime God

eternal veldt
#

Isn't the whispers not a good source for the lore???

raven brook
#

trust

#

🙂‍↕️

graceful warren
#

So does that mean queen slime is gonna be reconned

raven brook
long bloom
eternal veldt
raven brook
#

if its tier shifted then it wont be queen slime

#

i think thats kinda obvious

#

and is one of the main reasons the swap is even happening

eternal veldt
#

I see. That's good then

#

With calclone???

raven brook
#

Maybe, maybe not

#

Nothing confirmed yet but

#

Slime god getting tier shifted in some manner is very probable

graceful warren
#

I mean i wouldn't even mind changing the lore that queen slime is just a paladin that god slime left in the hollow

raven brook
#

Though the exact tier is unclear

eternal veldt
#

Hopefully not calclone

raven brook
#

Queen Slime's "lore" is incredibly irrelevant to the narrative as a whole you can very easily just change it the moment sg gets swapped

#

she dosnd't really contribute much in any meaningful way beyond hey look its the slime god

graceful warren
#

Still connecting queen slime with god slime in some sort of way makes sense

eternal veldt
#

Queen slime IS an optional boss anyway

raven brook
#

Her being a rogue paladin or something would make enough sense

eternal veldt
#

Besides i never even properly fight her

#

I just skip her in all my playthrough

graceful warren
#

Fair honestly like I said you can change the lore to just make it a paladin god slime created in the hollow. Since its lore isn't that important

eternal veldt
#

LMAO

raven brook
#

what superboss slime

#

goozma?

eternal veldt
#

No

#

I forgot the name

graceful warren
raven brook
#

there wasnt any other besides that

#

astralgeldon never was a superboss

zenith geode
#

astrageldon slime?

graceful warren
#

Astrageldon

raven brook
#

it was just a shitty king slime clone with laser spam

zenith geode
#

the standard boss that was just aureus?

raven brook
#

catalyst's astralgeldon is like a entirely new made up boss that has absolutely no similarity to the actual original fight

#

because the original fight was utter doodoo shit ass,

eternal veldt
raven brook
#

like imagine aureus but worse

#

thats how low the bar is

eternal veldt
#

But i meant the concept

zenith geode
#

catalyst geldon has vague hints of maybe resembling astrageldon slime
-circular
-purple
-astral themed

raven brook
#

i dont think ther eneeds to be 3 whole ass astral bosses 😭

zenith geode
#

correct

raven brook
#

specially with hot the astral is already like probably the single least important biome ot the mod's worldbuilding and story right now

zenith geode
#

there needs to be 12

eternal veldt
#

Fair enough

zenith geode
#

11 of them being little deuses

raven brook
#

if any biome would get 3 bosses itd be like. the crags

graceful warren
#

The astral is just kinda there

noble falcon
eternal veldt
#

I did like it's rogue weapon that makes me feel like dio

graceful warren
#

Like everything about the Astral just doesn't really seem relevant to Calamity.

#

Its feels like its own thing

eternal veldt
raven brook
#

the astral is in a very weird spot right now

eternal veldt
#

I wanna send the angler there

raven brook
#

its very disconnected from everything else yeah

raven brook

i think you can also just use a underworld pylon probably

graceful warren

Just like as a new corruption theme astral is great.

Unlikely
Not even world soul derived powers (rebirth) can heal someone from soul being destroyed so i do not see it being able to piece itself together when its soul is so much more complex and generally absurd

Was the shattering of the World Soul caused by external factors or internal factors?

It existed.

Considering Ilmaris location is a bit awkward

But you'd need ones that can survive in the specific environment of Ilmeris (which has been REALLY screwed up).
Meanwhile the Ilmerians can breathe air, so they can emigrate much more freely.
So it's far easier for people to leave than enter.

Yep. Basically

The best comparison I can think of is that the population of Ireland is lower than it was before the 1840s, when a massive famine hit.
What happened to Ilmeris reasonably killed a much higher percentage much faster than that.

there's also the fact that the ilmeris basin has been turned into glass and sand and basically all of it is impossible to actually achor a building into anymore. you'd need to building underground for any structural integrity and then slowly terraform the surface to become habitable and not immediately drain all of the water into the earth

the shard can be bound to up to two souls at once (so far). imperfect ascension has you just stack your own soul on top of the other one and suppress it until the day you die. perfect ascension has you delete the other soul and take it's place. you can technically ascend with a god soul if you can get it in the few seconds/minutes you have before it starts decaying into an essence due to instability but it's not a very good idea
