if there are resprites to vanilla stuff they should go into a texture pack
triangle has a texturepack that re-sprites metal armors i am not sure if it goes up to cobalt and what not
for example something like triangles armory reforged or ctp
i love the contrarian channel
iirc it does
well specifically the hardmode version
i remember seeing adamantite armor in them
peak
thats so ass
mega mind armor
This set would be cool if it didn’t have The Prongs
ancient necro helmet is also peak
i wont say regular cobalt looks great but i also wont lie to myself and say ancient cobalt has a good sprite
Best ancient armor is gold helmet right
can you send the sprites from these cause i havent seen them and my internet is ass
ok i was wrong triangles armory reforged doesnt have the hardmode stuff yet
not all of them i think
calamity texture pack
calamity taddon palk

it goes up to hellstone
at least for now
don't know if triangle will be doing more
can someone send that as well please
all of the showcases

whos the guy on the left
drake
I love such designs with a burning passion!
i think so
yeah
i actually have zero fucking clue
it would be necro
no but these are just incredible and im mad for only finding them now
here is drake and then some guy who no one knows in that gif turned emoji
we summoned triangle
dude i love these so fucking much it makes me angry
awesomeness aggression
are you planning to do the hardmode ore ones as well eventually triangle?
what are the top right ones in classes
both of those are just
ARHGHFSGHHFDJNJSGFD
top right is mage
probably jungle armor and uh
hes made it but it hasnt been added in for like a good while
the jungle armour is actually so fucking pretty
jungle and im blanking on the other
what mage armor is ice related lol
as you can see with some of them not having a plume, one being helmetless and other stuff, these are super wip. Also considering the new plans for how each will work and their thematics , i problably will do a jand restart on auric armor resprite once sunken sea update is released

isn't the mage one getting a magical plume
just been in artblock hell this year, but once its done i will go back to updating the pack
and also doing the release of the hm one
ok ok thought so, thank you so much
what is the blue mage armor beside jungle?
i will do anything
i wanna see what youve got for that so bad
is that like meteorite lol
nah
meteorite is next to hellstone
oh meteorite is beside hellstone
ancient cobalt
(which is the jungle alt set)
iloveyou
oooooohhhh
oh i am surprised that isn't in the ancient category lol
technically it should be on the ancient part, but its also a class armor since mage
i thought ancient cobalt would be in the ancient section ngl i just forgot about it not being there
why did i place pumpkin and gladiator on classes
anyway this is like
i dont remember..
triangle secretly revealing the release of a new class
pumpkin gladiator
the gladkin class
surely the pumpkin fans will erupt in rapturous glee about this
i pray for the hardmode metal armours 
uh here are most of the ones triangle posted
nope
adamantite and cobalt.. 
The first titanium one looks like a plague doctor who decided to gear up for war instead of healing people
although it might take a while since i still have some comms to finish first and the remaining sunken sea things
i hope you take as much time as you need
Triangle locked up forever for making sprites so good
omg its giving miquella
or wait
malenia
i always mix them up
ykwim
omg it is
I mean im more thinking of her cleanrot knight fellows byeah
Nooo no bloodflare summoner armor i'll never forgetcha
(it was a mediocre armor tho, i admit, but i'd personally always wanted it to be jist rebalanced and given some cool gimmick)
wait the auric armour with the radahn ass hair is for summoner?
shit I thought it was for melee
naw
the red pineapple plume is summoner
ranger is hammerhead shark
rogue is gojo
ranger's helmet look like Hoopa Unbound to me tbh
wait how did i just notice this
all the auric armors have different chestplates too not just helmets
good morning i don't think i slept at all tonight
no more universal auric chestplate?? 😢
i mean not that it matters unless ur switching classes post yharon
chestplate design changes based on the helmet iirc
oh neat
my favorite class
pumpkign
Will boss rush actually be required to fight yharim?
no
Why would it be
So what will the use of the rock be?
Eat it
it's a trophy
Send him a text message fr
we go to the dragon's aerie after we beat both the exo mechs & calamitas
We will go to the dragon aerie, a subworld, and fight him there
I got him on speed dial
Nah I’ll just ask flowdrei
Damn flowdrei must’ve changed their username
wont we have access to the aerie after yharon
because auric
future content doc says after the 2 penultimate bosses, but who knows this stuff is a very long time away
doesnt it just say we fight him after exos and cal
not we gain access to the aerie after exos and cal
"But we do know that it will be a massive sky island sub-world unlocked after the 2 penultimate bosses are defeated"
but again, this is years away
so it is sky island i knew it
theres a reason why i added small floating island thing at top left in this image lol
#lore-discussion message
Yeah you literally can ask draedon about it iirc
And he tells you it's a big sky island that nobody can locate
ye he says it's a sky island
wasnt it said draedon knows absolute batshit about it
in lore doc
he only theorized it to be a pocket dimension
i dont remember the sky island bit
he doesnt know much but he knows it's a big ksy island
interesting

calamity mod
good morning calamity spoiler talk
mediocre morning for me
evening CDmusic
but good morning
Hello DVDvideo
would it be a bad idea to say that i think T2E might be turning out better than T4 did
T2E being better than is good cause T4 is already a banger
what does the e mean
Encore
encore
i’ve been working on T2E here and there since i finished T1E
got like 2 minutes of it written
and i wrote a guitar solo yesterday
the sequel
legendary mode
Malice

the fate of what that last difficulty will be called is tbd
calamity mode 
fire writing
absolute cinema
resplendent could be a cool name
it kinda relates to the naming conventions of both difficulties
call it redeath to go with revengeance and with legendary being more of a silly thing

Call expert mode "vengeance" then
That way we have vengeance, revengeance, death, redeath
wonder if it's possibly to have Arsenal armor in next update
most likely in sunken sea rework
which comes in no one knows how many months
yes that would indeed be next update well observed
Only getting the first one of the armours iirc
next major update
no, next update
Sunken sea before fraud before silksong
The LGBTQ+ indie videogame community is gonna go crazy when they all release at the same time
this implies the straight indie videogame community won't go crazy
The indie videogame community is gonna go crazy when they all release at the same time
Even the fish community will go crazy. Yes, I'm a fish 🐟
This is true straight people don't care about all those
This is not true I care about all those
No, I'm just saying a good chunk of the community of those is LGBTQ+t least in my experience

Why are we talking about fish, this is the spoiler channel
Fish-> water -> sea ->sunken sea -> sunken sea overhaul
you dont want to be a fish person...
Well I'm a fish person

if this was gentalk id have already pinged both of them to meme around
alas
very spoilerous talk
sso has code therefore every video game can be talked because it also contains code..
That's..so true
we can also be talked about as we contain genetic code
Eins statement is now a quote
We can be talked about because we contain water, which as we know, is sunken sea related
We are 60% water
And the Sunken Sea is like 90% water
Cause yk, tiles and other stuff
The sunken sea is a big soup
sunken sea defo less than 90% water

Eater of Souls

so much hydrogen
thank you calamity fandom wiki for inventing hydrogen
Like 50%?
the biome has a lot of tiles
Oh sorry, I read the fandom wiki
4.2 ×10^27 atoms of hydrogen

I'm not very smart either, my brain is equivalent to the fandom wiki
Wait no I meant ^27 not 30

Tastes horrible

You mean bread in the form of a bowl
yes
And soup poured inside

Quite popular in my country
God this is the most bullshit conversation in the spoiler talk channel
Ah yeah, true
this is definitely spoiler content
bread bowls with soup, yeah

Why is the tinyurl link to VCMM's to do page not whitelisted 😭
damn i missed something epic!

the hellborn rework in spoilers hasnt dropped yet right
hasnt
woah woah woah, Nuclear Monsoon is being replaced?
regenator? i barely know 'er
anyways im taking your left lung
😭 ???
Do we know what the rework is gonna be?
Is thay different then what it is now? I forgor
the return of Malice?
no its just a name for legendary + death
all it does now is set ur hp at half and give u lots of life regen
it wont be a main difficulty like last time
fucked up and evil
I do think this is better
feels a lot more integrated
like how Rev and Death is now
goat
saving calamity
lol what
what teh hell
Special life regen not being negated by omega blue?
Would immensly buff this armor
I don't think you'd wanna use that with Omega Blue
you lose the entire damage boost gimmick
Special regen rate depends on?
Okay so omegas Negation has priority over regenators?
I think so
If not it would be quite too OP
nothing it's just flat 8.5 HP/sec
Could you make sure if the damage boost is disabled on a omega blue setup that features regen accs like radiance?
Satan is back
Hitler alive
Never used this item, although it is too strong for a glass cannon
Damn, is it worth waiting for the curses to improve?
what curses
Types of spells from Calamitas
And items with buffs
Oh shit does this mean rev/death are gonna display in the vanilla difficulty thing?
no that not it
?
you wouldnt BELIEVE how it works currently
it's the opposite, vanilla difficulties are gonna be displayed in Cal's difficulty UI to choose from
tupid kiri
theyre talking about the world select screen
buh
No I mean like, I know death/rev already show up on parts of the world select screen
I’m just asking if they’re gonna be like “expert + death” where expert would normally be
yea it also says rev/death+master if ur using master
but
It does????
yes
yes
I swear I’ve never seen this before
thats getting removed eventually (maybe next update i dont remember) since death will be master exclusive
and rev wont be togglable on master
(itll just be called death instead)
Oh rev changes are just being turned to base expert changes?
no
no
I feel like I’m getting dumber with each message I send I’m gonna be real
do u know how fargo souls does its difficulty
with emode and masochist
yeah that
togglable on expert and master worlds, different names for both
Right ok that makes sense
the way calamity difficulty now work is that it's basically Vanilla Difficulty's Calamity Mode
you have Expert, and you have Expert's Calamity , Rev
Master, and Master's Calamity, Death
Legendary, and Legendary's Calamity, Malice
Classic gets NOTHING
"Expert's Calamity"
idk why that made me laugh a bit
Well it could even make an armor like omega blue really tanky if paired with a dreadons heart (+48 defense)
Increased immunity frames, lifesteal feom omega blue, 8.5 HP/s special HP reg on omega blue and the heal from draedons heart..
It could make summoner really strong- radiance & chalice to stay in low HP range (also gets supported by rampart of deities), it would grant lots of bonus dmg to your summons to let them finish the job for you
It might be able to produce quite exotic builds
Defense death
the death of defense
deathense
dheart turns omega blue into a tank armor yeah
Died 2022 returned 2025, welcome back malice mode
Malice the undying
Malice two: twice as malicious
classic mode found dead in sso

but fr though, is malice just master gfb deathmode?
this new system is kinda confusing
better than the old system where the amount of difficulties was multiplied by 2-3
malice is ftw + death
(gfb also counts as ftw)
So glad seeds aren’t real
Bountiful harvest difficulty chart still gives me a headache (and didn’t even include everything iirc)
for current, besides Legendary + Death and journey, every single one has new ai changes ..
When you put it as that image you see how much of a nightmare the AI shit is
we love concise difficulties
This is what appears in my nightmares
yay it's no longer cramped and convoluting to look at
also much less for us to maintain

The ones that are grayed out include no changes besides statbuffs, is that correct?
calamity no longer edits vanilla bosses in the greyed out difficulties
That's very nice actually
Oh and one more thing, you'll be able to toggle all of those difficulties and whatnot right in the world?
you can now change to classic, expert, and master in your world
you cant swap out the seed tho for those ones lol
Thanks :glumbsup:
Okay i guess i just never put in any specific seeds because it will explode my laptop 
hey i specifically made deus produce less dust in gfb with bad pcs in mind..
generous gfber
Suffer
in the new update deus will fill your pc with dust
add calamity
holy fuck that's a good one
bravo
here come the 500 parody messages
Reference to Calamity mod version 1.4.5.001
What if the next calamity April fools turned yharon into a giant chicken nugget
is that the provi attack
no it's the eternal exchange state
or well, maybe not killing Judgement Ray entirely but massively reworking it from an active attack into a psudeo ripper
total annihilation
How did you get the death mode tag?
she DIED 💔
It’s for Rev and it’s from nohitting every boss a few years ago, no longer obtainable
it's the forbidden auric tier tag
Oh yea‘y dumbass confused the two
Nohitting all? Geez
yea I could never do that
Im proud for only being Hit like 8 times during a scal fight in expert death already
i wonder if there going to be a trailer for the update]
most definitely
im pretty sure its confirmed (?)
ts took way too much time to develop than it should have
confirmed or not, it’s coming
confirmed that it is coming
yeah
10 second trailer and it's just miracle boy

substance abuse
drug boy
i want malice :0
I want calamity to be challenging🥺
suffering is fun 
nohit entire game then
infernum 💀
Man I miss malice mode, still to this day I have my malice mode for the worthy world.
You are late
Malice mode was a really weird time for Calamity lol
Wasn’t malice guardians like almost impossible to nohit
malice exos wasn't even fucking tested in dev to see if it was beatable and fab went "looks good guys ship it out" 😭
Malicious intent
I really hope that there’s an archive of all the release malice bosses somewhere out there on tmod
Because god I want to fight them
how many reword wepones are there
at least like 2
they should rerelease 1.4.5 and 1.5.1 as legacy versions
i herd its can take up to an hour and a half to cover
this ain't even everything
Bountiful Harvest has 50+ weapons
SSO as of now is over 100+
Also don't forget a million acc reworks too
Not just weapons
127 wepones
i wonder if thay are going to relace a chart for accesorys too
Is this Engrisk or mentally ill moment
light work, sso brings nothing to the table
possible
pretty small update tbh
calamitys github lets u view the history
not that many reworks
No, the update’s name is Sunken Sea Overhaul
Following in the footsteps of Bountiful Harvest, the thing in the name of the update is maybe the least notable thing about the update
(I’m joking but holy SHIT how did we get to this point)
although its been 2 years and im loseing hope that the dev team are ok
everyone’s fine! (at least since fabsol departed). just wait while devs cook some wonders for once
wait fabsol "departed"
i was gone for 6 mothes
.
honestly if you wanna see what all went down, i'd type go to discord search and paste
in:general-talk during:2025-05-25
sort by old and scroll down a bit and you'll start seeing people talk about it
the tldr though is transphobia + nsfw server that had minors invited to it
completely unrelated to this i linked to the original message in #general-talk lol
oh nice lmao
that day lives forever in our minds even 2 months later (how has it already been 2 months??)
If only that applied to SSO
well
it's safe to say things are progressing more since fabsol's removal
Yeah that's true
so chances are the update is coming out sooner than it would have if we were still until fabsolian leadership
Genuine question has anything bad happened as a result of fabsol leaving? Aside from the stuff they did before being kicked out
Fabsol would have dalyed it to 2028
i mean what could you have in mind really lol
i guess a buncha people are mad at us removing his boss enrages (?)
things have been going better just overall, and the overall environment and vibes are much nicer, and things are actually happening lmao
If fabsol stayed, sso would never happen and calamity would fall apart
its quaint, no more getting yelled at for using capital letters to highlight words
His shit boss design would keep releasing
after all the stuff came out about him it was either he left or everyone else was leaving
thank god it came out 🙏
Do you not like prime summoning the other 2 mechs
Me when exxo alavon refrence:
Fabsol was obsessed with ts
Now this is a story I have not heard
If fabsol stayed we'd get Malice mode 2
the shayy thing
was also mentioned in the calcast
that
is just his master mode changes
It’s true
we’d more than likely have a tomb with words “here lies calamity mod, gone and forgotten” carved on it
Fabsol would change and destroy Xyk's Brothers like how he did it with Terry's Hive Mind
Didnt malice mod at least give you cool items for each boss or smth
He's truly a villain because even after all the shit malice brought in he ended up adding it back in anyway
Idk i never actually played malice mode
No just 100% for boss drops
Oh ok
Still better than master mode
That was before they were changed to be more obtainable
They were like 1% or something before that
1% -> 10% -> Malice 100% -> back to 10%
Yeah
On release yes, but people hated that and it died
Not having to walk through a minefield every time I talked to him is indeed nice
?
Talking to Fab was just a fucking nightmare
the kaguya fields...
how many time you had to change your hair for those
Uncountable
sounds about right
Me when I'm being too strict with people who basically volunteer
Honestly I’m just surprised that it is literally only a good thing that he got kicked out
Like I would’ve expected there to be at least a couple setbacks to development but, obviously good that there aren’t
Ok, being real, there were setbacks, but not in the sense of
Dude was just a liability at this point id imagine
Fab secretly put a bomb in the games code that'll set off on SSO release and purge all the code
This is why malice mode is being added back, it appeases the ancient spirit lying dormant within the code
the setbacks are now we have total freedom as a team and need to figure out how to navigate that
"Hey, we can actually fix all of the bullshit he shoved into the Mod over the last decade"
Bosses….
Question is hardmode rework staying
yes absolutely
Yeah
Drowning in freedom
Honestly I love the hardmode ore rework
hardmode rework is great
It makes all the ores feel so much more distinct
Calamity should have a freedom leitmotif
Hardmode progression is dogshit?
Calamity ft. America national anthem
And now, the stars of Calamity sing the national anthem
That's probably why no modern content Mod has any meaningful Hardmode content!
honestly really happy for youse. joined the discord just now to see how the updates are going, got into modded terraria really recently and was put off calamity by the previous bloat and stuff. i can't wait to see how the overhaul will look ^_^ again, super happy for your renewed freedom
Who did actually come up with hm rework?
Prehardmode is not only better
But also just
30 times easier to work with
Prehm feels like a complete experience
Because you aren't being constantly streamlined into "go fight the next Boss because we said so"
Growing as a person is realizing that pre boss is when terraria is at its best
Too bad it's on you now to fix the hardmode progression gurararara
Hardmode just kinda feels like dlc tacked onto dlc (because it is lol)
The good thing is that it's actually not that hard
Ive always preferred prehm
The hard part is Mechs
Which is already fixed
Golem > Cultist isn't too bad, I just think killing Cultist shouldn't immediately trigger the Pillars
Post golem has no content
The problem is Plantera > Golem
There’s def content
That part is just fucking inexcusable what the fuck were they thinking?
If only that could work
Too little of it compared to post plantera
It's honestly really easy
I'd personally move moons to post golem
Tbh call me crazy but plantera to golem simultaniously feels bloated and substanceless
Just make so killing Cultist isn't what triggers Pillars
I think the best thing you could do to improve hardmode is genuinely just remove the pillars
Like does anyone like them as an event?
Serious question
I see nothing but complaining about basically all of them
Across plantera the wings suck, the boss prog sucks, powercreep is out of place...
Instead you need to go down to the Dungeon entrance and interact with the tablet
Pretty simple
I do
It's not big enough to be really mad about
Well you see, they’re already “intended” to be, just that nothing stops you from doing it before cause yeah
In cal, sure it’s annoying but it’s not a huge deal, there’s like 30% of the game left
In vanilla moons actually feel post golem
The only bad thing about them is how you have to redo them all the time if you don't got the moon lord kill
In base terraria, this is the event you do to summon the final boss
In cal we give WAY too much crowd control
No you're just true and I know exactly why
And it’s just bad
so moons just feel sufudgd
Because there is absolutely zero reason to not go straight to Golem after Plantera
Goodbye enemies
It's entirely because Golem is just right there when you kill plantera
Plantera actually has quite a good bit of stuff after her but why bother
golem is just right there
Get a big power boost and then go deal with that shit
Pack in more bosses and SS or crags content between them
It creeps in as early as shadethrower and brimrose staff
Yeah, that and what you can do doesn't really affect your run all that much in the long run tbh
That doesn't solve it
Making temple key craftable instead of a plant drop fixes the problem immediately just saying
not really
hardmode dungeon can easily be skipped, so can moons, so can anahita and aureus
it helps
Golem rework 
but the ideal would be if the temple was not in the jungle at all
I think this is particularly invasive but I wish to entirely change how you get the Temple Key
And potentially add new enemies to the Jungle Temple to make it harder to traverse
Golem moved to the Aether
subworld temple
Temple is flawed due to hoiks unless devs pull a calamity addon lock
i dont think that changes much
Same tbh, would be cool if you were actually forced to go to the dungeon to make the key
what
Get resources from several different biomes + fishing to have a guy craft you a key
But instead of giving it to you, you gotta fight him now
hoiks arent golems issue
Being real, most people won’t use hoiks to get into the temple
2 jungle bosses in a row
not exactly a great thing
whats actually bad about this
Kinda like the guy in GoW that crafts you a weapon and then tries to sneak attack you
I hoik into the temple
except arbitrary u cant have 2 bosses in the same biome at once thats a nono!!
also, I feel like part of the problem is that the temple isn't really that fleshed out of a structure. You ususlly bumrush it to the golem arena and fight the dude and thats it. If the temple was actually more of an actual structure with stuff like puzzlerooms or collectibles that you need to actually even get to golem that would help significantly i feel
its fine to have a section of the game dedicated to the jungle i dont think thats the issue
Yea atp you have wings and stuff, traps do nothing
It's more like, the temple is an ominous structure that isn't relevant at all until after you kill something that mine as well be right next to said temple
Like why
Another issue is
Then golem himself would feel incredibly underwhelming and boring compared to the way you reach him because as boss he's just bad
thats a problem with a lot of terraria stuff like ocean, temple, dungeon etc, no real substance to them
The temple is one enormous anticlimax
Dungeon is a very good structure imo
Doing both of these would hopefully discourage players from heading into the Temple head first and actually interact with Post Plant content.
The question would be how to make this actually good, because that's really fucking hard and controversial due to being such a massive change to Vanilla progression
If there’s any structure to try and emulate, it’s the dungeon
Everything temple needs a rework tbh including golem
Imagine if there was a boss that unlocked fighting skeletron but the boss was right next to the old man
not exactly a bad thing, but once you kill plantera the only thing you can do next is going for the golem
well, it's mostly that the easiest post plantera content to access is also just Golem
But I also think it's necessary if we want to have good content in the latter half of Hardmode
Because you're already there
Golem especially needs a heavy rework
the issue is that plantera gives u the key
not that the temple is in the jungle
there's no exploration, no substance
There are many issues
To be fair hm rework is also a big change to progression and that was recieved largely positively
The post golem tier is omega stacked imo
I would support pushing back golem, but its only possible if a modded lock is placed on the temple (i.e that one wotg ice house)
It shouldn't be controversial because it's a mod
A mod about a guy genocide routing everyone and then stuff happens
yeah HM rework is a much larger change than changing temple key obtainment imo
Yes but we are trying to move past trampling over Vanilla
Yeah I think post golem is fantastic in cal
I think the point isn't to stop editing vanilla
It's to stop editing vanilla more than we need to
The dungeon has dungeon guardian, temple does not.
Yeah
Not really
Vanilla doesn't need to be fixed most of the time
Hardmode progression is just one of the biggest pain points of the game
I can handle hardmode progression, rarely had issues with it
It's just a boss rush most of the time
Prehm and post-ml are both boss rushes
It's... fine in Vanilla, but absolutely awful when you try to add your content onto it
The entire game is a boss rush
not really
He doesn't know
Honestly i think making all the hm ores unique to obtain would alleviate a lot of the monotony of it
like cobalt would be everywhere, mithril only in the ice biome and adamantite only in hell or sum
stuff like that
I wonder if the generated plantera arena could have something extra added to it that could either lead to you or have the jungle key, which would then cause a torch god-esque event
To like, break the curse of all the special biome keys and the jungle key
The idea of you having to grow the key is interesting
Stardew valley
Problem is how you guide the player to that
Mimics?
Everyone will just skip the growth timer though
Honestly? Following that idea, I still think Plantera can drop something
Wait I have an idea
Hear me out
Same way the game guides players to the dungeon after plant dies
Plantera drops a seed that once fully grown gives you the Temple Key
A message in chat saying something happened
Oh this is funny
You can plant it anywhere, clicking on it opens a small UI
You need to feed the plant several materials
I heard aureus cells and depth cells go well together
Feed it, it grows one step
What if you moved aureus and anahita to be at the same time as plant in progression and you needed items from both to grow the key?
Make it have like, 4 steps
It should give the player a reward for each growth stage i think
And once fully grown you just get the key
That sounds really cool
And also after you fully grow it, Plantera drops the Temple Key again
No need to keep regrowing it if you lose the key
Those things plantera drops
Shards or whatever
Will the temple ever be un-hoinkable?
If they'll stay
Or you unlock a recipe
Its a cool concept, but it would feel out of place as the lore currently stands
No
It would be fun if you specifically had to do it in the vernal pass i feel like
Or maybe use smth silva related to grow the thing ?
I was thinking like weapons, armor
Something to actually inspire the player to keep going
Like bam, stage one done? Here's a special helmet
Nah, it's better if it can be planted anywhere
Otherwise it'd be inconvenient
also shouldn't crash your game if not in a perfectly flat arena with no background walls 
I actively want hoiks to be suppressed by like another dungeon guardian, or some other kind of trap
Life shards as a reward would be lame cuz you can farm plantera already
I just feel like it would be more atmospheric in a sense if you had to specifically do it there
the issue with that is uh
also aren't they gonna get nuked anyways?
and if you buy the battle pass it grows faster
Hoiks is a technically intended mechanic so
No clue!
how would you quantify it being in the vernal pass
This guy gets it
Crag trees
Doesn’t have to be life shards but it could be like, a random biome key on one of the growth cycles
Hoiks still result in your death in a pre-skeletron dungeon. (Loot needs enemies too)
have the vernal pass generate a specific setpiece ig
if its just on vernal soil you can move it anywhere, and vernal pass isnt counted as its own unique biome
Yeah but that's skeletron dungeon
The fact is everything can be cheesed somehow, you can just fill the enemy limit and ignore dungeon guardian if you really want to
Or chug infinite return potions
I would likely want to make it only require materials readily available after Plantera, but I think it could be locked behind Analevi
...hoiks are still intentionally in the game though
Unsure, though
Yeah i think it'd be cool if it was locked behind both levi and maybe aureus/calclone aswell
Nah that's too much
Shouldn’t lock it behind too much
Be evil and make the key require the community
Genius
LeviAna become main progression boss
One of the best parts of cal imo is how free form the progression is
what are we talking about
Temple key rework
speaking of Analevi, are the Tier 2 Abyss weapons gonna get buffs at all? Atm most are completely overshadowed by other weapons at that stage
like theres a method in place to stop people from entering the dungeon before killing skeletron, it would still be there regardless of if hoiks existed because the dungeon inherently isnt locked
Leviathan becoming more important would be nice
Feel like aureus just doenst have that much going for him tbh
Massive temple debate going on
Trying to think of how to make Post Plantera not dogshit because right now you literally just beeline to the Temple
levi already unlocks abyss stuff, but aureus doesn't really do anything?
That's already in the plans iirc
Making him relevant via presence
Kid named starburster core:
I think anahita being necessary for the temple key makes sense, pretty likely a player would just stumble upon her when they’re doing stuff in the ocean
abyss stuff can largely be skipped as the gear you would have by that point is already more powerful
I mean personally speaking I think most of the abyss stuff is really good
I love shit like flak kraken or the depth crusher upgrade I’m forgetting the name of
Since silva is in the abyss, wouldnt it be consistent for the analevi drop helping growing a plant thing to be related to her ?
abyss blade
Oooh
Yeah, Analevi also make thematic sense
what if you had to get something from the abyss/silva related for the key
The abyss is in a pretty decent position
I don't think I've seen anyone use Megalodon over Chain Gun/Leviatitan or Hadal Urn over Bat Sceptre/Wasp Gun
Thats... What i suggest
Just the Abyss as a whole
Yeah stuff like megalodon is underpowered but the flak kraken is an incredible rocket launcher
Which is a shame since i like megalodon
But that might deceive players into think there's nothing more there
I use it whenever I play ranger
very good idea i approve
eugh didn't pay attention sorry
I haven't gotten around to testing post plantera yet
is there a john calamity
New idea, make reaver sharks spawn in layer 3 rarely
there was
Reaper sharks I mean
theres john calamity mod, but john calamity is dead 😔
death sentence
So the player goes “damn this guy is beating my ASS, I’ll come back for him when I’m stronger”
I mean an abyss miniboss already spawns in Layer 3
It’s not my fault there’s two things in calamity with the name rea_er shark
Generally though this is more a matter of
because one just got reworked, while the other is an ancient artifact
Since you go to the abyss right after golem it might be too much back and forth in the abyss to go to it post plant AND post golem (?)
"How do we properly guide the player"
Megalodon did get a slight rework, and by that I mean it mainly inherited stuff from Archerfish, which it looks cool, but in practice the water streams ended up butchering its dps
If I can be real I forget the colossal squid exists at all
New players go off of instinct and its near impossible to avoid
however, the reworked Megalodon did work well against Plantera
Maybe misclicked reply but dw
god damnit discord
Is it iframes?
Or a literal nerf?
well no not really, it's just that now half your bullets are a weak water stream
so yes it feels like a nerf
I'd have to compare it myself soneday
@jagged copper what's the SPM themed lvl on your banner
River Twygz
The calamity.. it’s spoiled
What diff ?
Or idk actually
compare it to Chain Gun
Well it's Unnerfed River Twygz, which idk, is Top 400 maybe?
Getting a real rework next update btw, not sure if that’s relevant but this is spoiler chat so I’m mentioning it
Wdym unnerfed, lemme guess its unrated and the rated nerfed version is like free ?
nerfed ver was never rated and the Unnerfed was lost, I ended up recreating it as accurately as possible
that "slight rework" was in Ark update that's crazy, it looks like glorpshit
Oh thats cool I hope it gets rated ig
it won't, nerfed ver got updated with new deco and was buffed so much it surpassed the unnerfed
is it still similar to how the Minishark lineup is?
so the Minishark and Megashark are getting reworked? You're confusing me
🫠
when I mean by "lineup", I mean:
Minishark > Archerfish > Megashark > Megalodon > Seadragon > Voidragon
you right I did
They’re still guns that shoot bullets fast yes
But more interesting
Hmm should I spoiler
kiriblight will lose its right lung
wtf...
dead
it has been voted off the island
what evern was use style 1
guess I'll keep never using those weapons like always except Terra Blade line and, others that also got spices in 1.4.4
vanilla should do them more
you want to show us Devourer of Goooods...

#unknown 😨
Virus link
tierlist server = virus link??
i knew it
My bad, it’s worse
smelly link
tierlist mmmm
yea i saw all of this before
outvoted
was it close
KiriDev when
we didn't have an official vote on it so
we could but I didn't care enough
It ended up looking almost 1-1 like Fargo's which is really funny bc I didn't look at Fargo's at all when designing it
convergent design
think alike
😨 that's the heat death
tot?
im still not convinced u didnt just copy paste the fargos one i saw no discernable difference 😭
Y'know how everything evolves into crabs
doze with the manga anime girl pfp
what happened
it was a good manga
fair enough
i don't read many but the anime got me hooked
