ai generated

lyric trellis
#

True but I think deus is easily one of the best bosses in basecal for it since it can also go pretty fast but isn't completely awful and big like dest

dense sundial
#

mans redefined the word hypocrite every day

fringe quiver
#

aw man i was really hoping you'd say ai generated that would've been a good punchline

lyric trellis
#

Also 2 worms makes it more engaging since you have to look out for 2 idk

fringe quiver
#

you had the perfect setup too

mystic eagle
#

The Exo Mechs attacks are AI generated. The AI of the mechs cause them to initiate the attacks

still bluff
#

wait true

fringe quiver
#

das tru

still bluff
#

every boss is ai generated

lyric trellis
#

That's cal using ai

mystic eagle
#

CV:

#

What AI do Profaned Guardians use

hasty tangle
#

calamity uses AI to control boss behavior 😱

pulsar cobalt
#

exo mechs are ai generated because they are an ai

slate folio
#

what happened

mystic eagle
#

Exo_Mech.ai

slate folio
#

what are we talking about

#

im having trouble backreading this

hasty tangle
#

it was originally about dog

#

now its about AI

slate folio
#

wait

#

fabsol used AI to code cal bosses?

hasty tangle
#

no

mystic eagle
slate folio
#

oh

#

fuck

hasty tangle
#

its a joke because all enemies in the game use AI to determine how they behave

slate folio
#

sorry mb

#

yeah

pulsar cobalt
#

😱

arctic cliff
#

Okay lets be honest

#

once again

#

I am glad Fab is gone

hasty tangle
#

most people are

arctic cliff
#

because i genuinely do not trust him with new dog

mystic eagle
#

Same

arctic cliff
#

like

#

i know for a fact he would've absolutely fumbled giant dog

hasty tangle
#

i didnt trust him with a lot of stuff honestly

dense sundial
hasty tangle
#

especially with how bad current MD is

fringe quiver
#

the horse

dense sundial
fringe quiver
#

it has been beaten..

hasty tangle
#

it eroded any trust i had left in fab's boss design compentency lo

fringe quiver
#

like unironically

mystic eagle
fringe quiver
#

i wholeheartedly believe it would've used deerclops ai

dense sundial
lyric trellis
#

Just like yharim

mystic eagle
#

Guards, CV and Exos*

hasty tangle
#

but exos are just clones of mechs!!!!!!!!

lyric trellis
#

Thanatos with Destroyer ai when

mystic eagle
#

Ares and Hunters share a line of code with EoL

#

Unique ai ruined

hasty tangle
#

every single line of ai code that fab has ever wrote ended with a semicolon
every single line of vanilla code ended in a semicolon

#

coincidence?

lyric trellis
#

Onto something

mystic eagle
#

Totally style points;

dense sundial
still bluff
hasty tangle
#

admittedly its not a super common argument

dense sundial
#

they are literally the mechs but again in terms of the concept

twin juniper
dense sundial
#

i think the artists for them did all they could to make them less of that

hasty tangle
#

they share a base concept and thats about it

dense sundial
#

but their ai is technically unique yeah

mystic eagle
#

We got a unique AI trinity+0.5

tropic jolt
#

one day every boss will have unique ai!

mystic eagle
#

Hopefully

#

Are Yharim's attacks still going to be largely based off his YOMI ones

hasty tangle
#

still? that was a plan at one point?

buoyant pulsar
#

me when i make the handle of every single sword tiny and stupid and thin

pulsar cobalt
mystic eagle
tropic jolt
#

with yharim being so far away anything can change

mystic eagle
#

True

lean cave
#

yharim could possibly is some universe be a worm boss clueless

tropic jolt
#

I wonder if he will have attacks inspired by senator armstrong

mystic eagle
#

Yharim Worm

tropic jolt
#

every boss will soon be a worm boss (with unique ai)

dry whale
lean cave
dense sundial
#

personally i hope yharim does not have dragonfolly attacks or the last prism

mystic eagle
#

If there's infinite universes, there's infinite Yharim Worms

lyric trellis
#

Like yeah sure man

lean cave
#

inspired by fighter ai

dense sundial
#

i doubt it would stop at inspired

pulsar cobalt
tropic jolt
pulsar cobalt
#

like it would be such a butchering of their concepts u wouldnt even be able to tell

tropic jolt
#

I don't see why yharim can't have nanomachines that harden in response to physical trauma

dense sundial
#

not just references, a good chunk of them are literally thing from metal gear rising

lyric trellis
#

Wow this Murasama weapon sure is neat

dense sundial

i say a good chunk but i can only think of murasama

can murasama get ship of theseus'd into not being straight up the mgr murasama

i honestly would not mind its rework plans at all if it simply wasn't a game rip

arctic cliff
unkempt fractal
pulsar cobalt
#

all the rework plans are just original ideas iirc

arctic cliff
#

Honestly?

tropic jolt
dense sundial
#

i saw the plans and thought "why are we putting all this effort into a rip instead of, i don't know, original content"

arctic cliff
#

We need to de murasama-ify the murasama

mystic eagle
dense sundial
pulsar cobalt
agile latch
#

i think dia never played metal gear

agile latch
#

only the design and name still is tho.. society but you have all the 50 skins to choose

pulsar cobalt
agile latch
#

that arent the metal gear one

#

just a katana

rose laurel
#

I think the Murasama staying as what it is is fine, really

agile latch
#

that you can choose

dense sundial
#

ok sorry i meant the name and design being a game rip

agile latch
#

peeposhrug so like

#

you can just use moonburn's mura for example

pulsar cobalt
agile latch
#

that is literally vanilla muramasa

pulsar cobalt
#

wrong one

rose laurel
#

Or you can use mine which is ONE PIECE!!!!!!

lean cave

muramasa mk2

agile latch
#

muramasa

#

gah

dense sundial
#

crabbar murasama

lean cave
#

fuck

tropic jolt
rose laurel
#

Yes

agile latch
#

since there is ways to get diferent looks for it that arent the mgr neither based on games

#

and its functions arent based on the metal gear one

lean cave
#

so wait how will we change the color/dev on the murasama?

trail oriole

i think on the ui?

my question wasnt answered

💔 🫗

dense sundial
#

modification table?

agile latch
pulsar cobalt
rose laurel
#

There's something to be said about the fact that Murasama is a pillar of Calamity's identity, but at the end of the day I think that it's fine to leave it there as the one homage to our roots

agile latch
#

small guys

dense sundial
#

there's a "crafting" station for one weapon? am i getting this straight

agile latch
#

gulpsplosion upgrade station but yea

pulsar cobalt
#

i think so

dense sundial
#

it's really not a big deal it just sounds somewhat odd

pulsar cobalt
#

it might get other uses

agile latch
#

best path would be just

#

mixing it together with the arsenal armor one

dull heart
#

yeah I think so too

arctic cliff
#

Why not just make murasamas for all classes

dull heart
#

no

rose laurel

no

dense sundial

Class identity is a myth. Usestyle1 is a joke. We're all pawns, controlled by something greater

Zenith Weapons Mod. The DNA of modding

if calamity mod was made today you would have a zenith set where all the projectiles spam trail effects

fringe quiver

fair

it'd probably be easier to animate the others once you get one done since its just sorta copying the same thing 4 times

i think there should be a frogfish variant based of the warty frogfish bc theyre pretty but also the mines 💥 the horrors

I'm so close to being done with the new alcohol effects...

nmake a new alcohol effect that grants you 200% damage but to compensate if you die while the buff is active you die of alcohol poisoning

im just surprised ur also gonna rework tipsy

lyric trellis
pulsar cobalt

surprised ale is still on the hitlist tbh, would've thought it would've been one of the first

pulsar cobalt
#

i just thought it wouldnt have been touched

thick coyote
#

mightve had to push through some "but its vanilla" resistance

grave geyser
#

that line was crossed when it lost its melee speed

#

so :/

thick coyote
#

I didn't know it had melee speed

dull heart
thick coyote
#

in vanilla lole

lyric trellis
pulsar cobalt
dull heart
#

it'll be melee still

pulsar cobalt
#

kinda like the odd mushroom but for controls

arctic cliff
#

I think Ale should receive the least amount of changes given that it's

#

VANILLA

#

oh wait i got a glorious

#

idea

grave geyser
#
  • melee speed - melee damage
#

clearly

dull heart
arctic cliff
#

ale gets reworked, but you can craft a new alcohol called "Vanilla Ale" that just acts like the original Ale

dull heart
#

I think I might make ale make melee size larger but reduce melee speed

arctic cliff
thick coyote
#

btw is alcohol poisoning staying, i dont really get why thats a thing if the alcohols are being made more wacky

dull heart
#

Yes

#

stacking a bunch of them is likely to break stuff because of the wacky effects

thick coyote
#

ic

dull heart
#

You can get some insane combos atm

#

White Wine + Red Wine + Caribbean Rum is one of my favorites

thick coyote
#

combining the first two sounds like an assault on my taste buds

grave geyser

red wine getting to be more than just a supreme healing potion in early hm

are you basing alcohol effects on any source in particular? or just kinda winging them

like what the alcohols do irl, something related to their ingredients or original effect, etc.

one of two alcohol I didn't touch, along with everclear

it's useful for people who have bad aim, but bad for anyone else

Except you don't fight the Vortex or Stardust Pillars

fathom girder

Stardust makes me want to explode

boreal edge

Because Vortex gets cheesed by being behind tiles and Stardust gets cheesed by luring a Star Cell out of the range

nooo

I love fat biome mimics

boreal edge
#

It's okay Ebonian Paladin is no longer Biome Mimic

#

It's now Queen Slime phase 2

lyric trellis
#

My bad

#

QS yeah

dusty tinsel
#

QS should be eradicated it's not a good boss

rose laurel
#

Ok I have to give Fabsol ONE good point

#

He made Queen Slime a decent fight

lyric trellis
#

I think Ebonian Paladin would be good if it completely copied vanilla qs, projectiles and all

boreal edge

The Rebecca bucks

dusty tinsel

It's a neat idea it's just a bad fight

i hate queen slime

Well he fucked that up on Destroyer

#

So

lyric trellis
#

Isn't cal qs like "we removed the terrible parts and added projectiles that trail down"

fringe quiver
#

he gets the congragulage you did it star

lyric trellis

Which tbf that's a few of them

boreal edge
#

Moon Lord

lyric trellis
#

but yeah like you said, destroyer

fathom girder
#

Moon lor

fringe quiver
#

he gets this

lyric trellis
#

It can always get worse/be just as bad

fringe quiver
#

moon lord sucks i hate moon lord

#

atleast with queen slime i can just like skip it or something

fathom girder
#

I think true eyes should keep their death rays

fringe quiver
#

but that motherfucker is the FINAL BOSS

rose laurel
#

Moon Lord isn't terrible imo, like

fathom girder
#

But they shouldn't sweep so much

rose laurel
#

He works

#

For the first three times you fight him

lyric trellis
#

Soaring Insignia boss

fringe quiver
#

i just really hate his fight design its so asssss

#

so many

#

tiny projectiles that r hard to see and a bunch of random shit in ur screen happening at once and the fucking eyes and ughhhhhhh

rose laurel
#

When the magic of Moon Lord being groundbreaking for Vanilla standards wears off

#

You realize he's just painfully mid

lyric trellis
#

Mid is generous

fringe quiver
#

its literally like flesh prison ultrakills levels of random bullshit except somehow worse because fresh prison ultrakill has some amount of coherence compared to it

fathom girder
#

Skeletron omega

#

Is a better way to put it

fringe quiver
#

moon lord is more random bullshit than the boss that is ACTIVELY MEANT to be random bullshit

rose laurel
#

I also have to give Fab another good point that he made Moon Lord better but I think as time went on he kinda just

fathom girder
#

Head and hands boss with a single huge attack to keep in mind and the rest can be ignored

fringe quiver
rose laurel
#

Overdid it?

lyric trellis
#

As in removing prediction?

rose laurel
#

No like, he put Moon Lord in a great spot that still made sense with Vanilla

thick coyote
#

are we talking calamity moon lord or vanilla because i actually like calamity moon lord (havent fought him since bountiful though so maybe he got Fa*soled)

summer shore
#

Removing the eye lasers

rose laurel
#

And then he started doing more random bullshit and it got ?????

summer shore
#

biggest fab W imo

fathom girder
#

Nahhhh he didn't have to remove them

fringe quiver

im talking abougt vanilla

rose laurel
#

I gotta be real here, though

He coulda done something to nerf them but keep em in

i never fought ml in calamity lul

but in vanilla hes ass

Biggest Fab W is Rev Twins

Rev Twins are

#

So good

thick coyote
#

Twins are very fun

lapis oak
#

cheese you don't even play the game

#

all your Terraria memories are AI generated

fathom girder
#

Rev twins is always a nice fight

rose laurel
#

Twins are imo the best Vanilla Boss I fucking love fighting them so much

thick coyote
#

definitely agree there

dusty tinsel
lyric trellis
thick coyote
#

when i think of vanilla i think of Twins

lyric trellis
#

Oh nvm

#

You mean other bosses?

fathom girder
#

When I think vanilla i think ML

#

Because i'm a terrarian enjoyer

#

I want that yoyo

rose laurel
#

There's something about Twins that just fucks extremelly hard. Honestly I genuinely think it's the chat message 😭

#

Like

#

"This will be a terrible night" is SO FUCKING GOOD

#

Whoever thought of that COOKED

fathom girder
#

Thanks red

thick coyote
#

its just the eoc message again

#

is it not

misty wren
# misty wren i mean he could have sure but the eye lasers are also unequivocally ass and horr...

not even a damage and velocity nerf fixes them because 90% of the time the eyes arent even on screen so you're getting hit by projectiles that you either have to rod through or just pray you outspeed them
and that doesnt work very well if you're in a real combat scenario, the lasers on their own, sure those are dodgeable, but with the 7 billion other projectiles ml has its not really reasonable to assume those get dodged

rose laurel
#

No

summer shore
#

ok but

#

Impending doom approaches

rose laurel
#

EoC is "you feel an evil presence watching over you"

thick coyote
#

oh i thought eoc was "Tonight is going to be a horrible night"

misty wren
#

nope

thick coyote
#

huh

summer shore
misty wren
#

that might be the summon tooltip, i forgor, but not the chat message

lapis oak
#

when the dementia hits

rose laurel
#

That's Cal Clone's tooltip

#

Well

#

Used to be

#

I removed it

thick coyote
#

Ahhh

And just made it

"She is here."

Need Yharon to get a natural spawn with a hard as fuck line signaling it 🙏

fathom girder

Honestly I meant moreso the fucking

thick coyote
#

TRUE

rose laurel
#

Eyes not popping out properly

#

That's so ????

fathom girder
thick coyote
#

Id go with something about a distant roar if i was making it

fathom girder
#

Flames herald his approach

#

Oh maybe

rose laurel
#

Honestly the only thing I'd like to do with Yharon is like

lyric trellis
#

Remember when ML spawned like 12 true eyes and you had to kill them

thick coyote
#

Yharon is just the number one boss i want a natural spawn for since iirc the lore literally is that he ambushes you

rose laurel
#

What triggers him naturally spawning, because there's plenty of grinding to be done after DoG and making it be able to happen immediately after would be kind of a kick in the nuts

summer shore
#

Provi's one will be "ashes begin to rise" surely

thick coyote
misty wren
# rose laurel That's so ????

...reb thats a change initially from 2019
2020 if you count that change as really happening when true eyes were added back into the fight

rose laurel
#

Guh????

thick coyote
#

so seems to be a moot point

rose laurel
summer shore
#

No it's funny

thick coyote
#

I disagree, it only take a few seconds to die and i like the flavor

fathom girder
dry whale
summer shore
fathom girder
#

And then he can slowly spawn in similarly to ml

rose laurel
#

I honestly would make so you could soar a trumpet that was, for the lack of a better word

lyric trellis
rose laurel
#

You doxxing yourself to Yharon

arctic cliff
rose laurel
fathom girder
#

That would be funny lol

#

"COME AND GET ME"

rose laurel
#

Following that Yharon could naturally spawn at any time

summer shore
dry whale
summer shore
#

That'd make you feel awesome

arctic cliff
#

anyhow, you think THIS should not be a miniboss?

rose laurel
#

Ok actually I just had an INSANE idea

thick coyote
#

i guess if you change the lore thatd work but i thought it was cool as fuck that the terrarian gets ambushed by Yharon of all people and wins, but then again I guess DoG also is an ambush so

misty wren
# rose laurel Guh????

1.4.2.106 (october 26 2019) made true eyes not pop out
1.4.3.2 (march 9 2020) made true eyes spawn in the moon lord fight on top of the 1.4.2.106 change
so those changes are between 5 and 6 years old

rose laurel
#

So yeah

arctic cliff
#

I mean, true

dry whale
#

cloud elemental, earth elemental, abyss minibosses, plaguebringer

#

none of them are actual minibosses

lyric trellis
arctic cliff
#

OH WAIT

#

WHY AREN'T THEY? They have HEALTH BARS when MGRR health bar is activated

misty wren
arctic cliff
#

This doesnt make any sense

fathom girder
misty wren
#

they function as regular enemies so they arent considered minibosses

rose laurel
#

Pretty sure they lost health bar privileges next update

rose laurel
#

After DoG

#

.

dry whale

tell us

Yharon can spawn as a roaming enemy

Oh damn

let her cook

rose laurel
#

He actively hunts you down the entire world and will engage you in the Boss fight if he finds you (he might be losing bordernadoes so there wouldn't be issues with that)

#

And you can use the trumpet to go "I'M HERE DICKHEAD" and he'll instantly dart towards you

thick coyote
#

him losing bordernados would be nice, a fight against a dragon should feel like a chase

arctic cliff
#

...trumpet? like the trumpets from mbotomy lorp?

misty wren
#

ngl i read the after dog and my brain edited that into after moon lord and i was about to say thats the same issue as mechs

thick coyote
#

this is absolute cinema btw rebecca you cooked

fathom girder
#

I love that idea yeah

rose laurel
#

And the best thing is

fathom girder
#

The constant dread of yharon trying to find me

lapis oak
rose laurel
#

Yes

summer shore
#

You just see his map icon in the jungle somewhere as he approaches your ass

rose laurel
#

That's exactly what I was gonna say

misty wren
#

just keep the progression skippable summon 🙏

rose laurel

#

Damn

I'm good at this

Me hiding in the distortion to avoid the spicy chicken special

lapis oak

Yharon won't be able to find me, I'm too busy raving in my little Distortion 😇

misty wren
thick coyote
rose laurel

However since the Distortion is gonna take a while, we'll have to do the second best thing of "Yharon goes to sleep during the night"

#

And also fucks off during any events

summer shore

if the progression skip would be canned at any point it would be if/when folly gets the retier

Just

Doxx yourself whenever you want

#

sounding the trunpet works even pre dog makes sense yeah

misty wren
rose laurel
#

By the time you can craft the spawner you'd be known by Yharon so it's easy to just say

azure oak
#

Yharon's new summon method is to scream at him to square up

rose laurel
#

Yeah

#

He'd still fuck you up

misty wren

SQUARE UP MOTHERFUCKER IM TWO GUN MAN

arctic cliff

yknow what

i like the horn idea for the yharon summon item

arctic cliff

also speaking of the idea of superbosses, who the hell would make for a good superboss

"SURPRISE YOU BITCH"

And then could spook the player again by not actually dying when his health reaches 0

it was

when it was a light year lon

raw falcon
#

this implies the devourer was somewhere close to the speed of light when he ate deus, because if he wasnt it would've taken him forever

arctic cliff
#

i mean when i read the old lore for astrum deus, i genuinely believed the boss we fought, the swarm of deus worms, were normal terraria worms that fed upon old astrum deus's corpse and became the boss we knew and loved

lyric trellis
#

That deus got a disease from noxus and then dog ate it to gain power when it was almost a corpse

lyric trellis
#

I mean at the scale of old lore, who knows

misty wren
#

it only ate part of it iirc

raw falcon
#

because Dog is not faster than light!!!

does anyone have the invoked stargod gif

what is that even from

was that being made as an addon or smth

i think the way rebecca described makes it pretty balanced to the point it isn't much of a problem for the player - They might get caught offguard by it once or twice but otherwise it'd more so just be a really damn cool worldbuilding thing

maybe like one day
