calamity-update-talk

[dull heart]

so i read it

or well, half of it so far

[fringe quiver]

i've gotten so used to seeing your past pfp as you that when you changed to the green anime girl it gave me whiplash and then this one gave me more whiplash

[dull heart]

lol

[lapis oak]

doze is crimson chin irl

[dull heart]

the green one was because i just was feeling off and decided to change it on a whim

this one will probably stay for a little bit bc I still like it a lot

usually i'm over a new pfp after about a day

[misty monolith]

cant look at hydrothermic or god slayer armour the same after seeing the plans for the new sprites

[lapis oak]

Hydro is, likely scrapped, it's really old

[misty monolith]

crying

[grave geyser]

a lot of plans are really old

[lapis oak]

and God Slayer Tringle recently did say to revise it some more too

so both are likely changing from the current

[misty monolith]

oh yea i definetly dont expect them to stay the exact same

but seeing what they could be

the new godslayer colour palette is soooo much better

i dont expect them to stay the same but after seeing them the current god slayer armour looks very flat

[lapis oak]

ye Calamity has to deal with a lot of its contents being dated

[misty monolith]

dont get me wrongi think it still looks good

its just the new shit is SOOOO good

also i remember there was people complaining on twitter about the new DoG sprite when it was revealed

was that like drama

or just twitter being miserable

[vivid hemlock]

90% of it was just people complaining about how hd it looks and the other 10% actually had more reasonable critiques like how its designed

[lapis oak]

it's very polarizing

but most complaints are just naive and uh, false

[vivid hemlock]

yeah

[lapis oak]

still very polarizing tho, and the negative often comes from other artists criticizing the design aspect

[misty monolith]

idrk how i feel about it

i think its hard to say without vfx and actually fighting in game because

isnt it literally massive

[dusty tinsel]

People when they see a new sprite 😡 how dare you re-sprite my favorite boss

[lapis oak]

yes

[misty monolith]

i really like the current phase 2 dog sprite

the first not so much

[vivid hemlock]

the current and new phase 2s are literally the same design but the quality is very different

[lapis oak]

better comparison

[misty monolith]

lmao thats hilariously big

[dusty tinsel]

It fits his ego

[misty monolith]

signus being moved after DoG is also kinda cool and pretty interesting

[vivid hemlock]

what

[lapis oak]

?

that's not right

surely he'll still be pre DoG

[misty monolith]

last line

[dusk bronze]

right before

[misty monolith]

wait

like

hold on

is there something wrong with me

im genuinely worried

sorry ab that i really dont know what happened

[lapis oak]

time to sleep it seems like

[misty monolith]

i read it like 3 times to make sure before i sent the ss as well

[dusty tinsel]

Dyslexia or your brain did what mine does on occasion lol

Sometimes my brain gaslights me into thinking something is true despite it not actually being true and I don't know why

[pearl sentinel]

dw you stay silly with it

[dry whale]

do you remember those boss progression placement changes right after 25

featuring evil2 post moonlord phm folly and those things

well it also featured post dog signus iirc

but I think that was one of the least likely

[lyric trellis]

Thought it was post-Polter

[dry whale]

may be misremembering it

would kind of make sense lore wise I guess???

but right before dog is still fine

[lapis oak]

trio progression changes have been proposed for a while even before after 25

Weaver moved to sooner and Signus moved to later, CV stays the same

[summer shore]

It did not

[dry whale]

I may have severe case of

stupidity

[summer shore]

true

[dusk bronze]

no that one was way before

[lyric trellis]

Nicest Altraxia message

[dry whale]

well atleast that used to be true

[lapis oak]

🫧 🐠 ?

[fast vessel]

So is SSO almost done or something? I thought the distortion update was far out, or is development for that well under way?

[dusk bronze]

distortion update development won't start for years

[grave geyser]

sso coming sometime within the next decade

[dusk bronze]

sso is not very close to done

the background in the dog rework isn't the actual subworld

[fast vessel]

So what’s with the talk about signus? Is that rework this update or in distortion?

[dusk bronze]

not sso

[fathom girder]

Scope creep extended sso by another 40 years

[dry whale]

just ideas

[dusk bronze]

might be before distortion update

might be in it

[fast vessel]

Is yharon rework in sso? I feel like I saw the new Yharon sprite like 5 years ago.

[dusk bronze]

no

after

[fast vessel]

Damn

[dusk bronze]

but not too long after

also the sprite is being remade but it's more done than the last one ever was

[fast vessel]

Worst part about yharon rework is I’ll need to relearn the fight and pre-ML yharon can’t be my go-to anymore.

[dusk bronze]

they're not gonna significantly change the ai

[grave geyser]

krill I think

[fast vessel]

Are they removing the death mode self damage?

[dusk bronze]

the majority of the devs are pretty happy with the state of the fight iirc

[dusk bronze]

unknown

[fast vessel]

So that armor progression sheet that I saw, is that SSO?

Like, all those armors need to be spirited and made and they also need to do reworks for evil 2 and dragon folly still? Or is that later?

[dry whale]

evil2 and folly progression swap isnt confirmed afaik

and even if it is it likely wont be in sso

[dusk bronze]

it's not explicitly confirmed but ozzatron told vanillin to put it in the future doc

[dusk bronze]

oh yeah absolutely not

[lapis oak]

3 bosses

too much work

[dry whale]

that idea is too recent and too big to be in sso

[pearl sentinel]

its not confirmed in the same way clark kent isn't "confirmed" to be superman

[dry whale]

who

[dusty tinsel]

clark kent isn't superman what are you talking about

[dry whale]

is that superman actual identity

[dusty tinsel]

this is about as insane as saying bruce wayne is batman

[dry whale]

true

[dusty tinsel]

or barry allen is the flash

[misty wren]

he is hard confirmed to be superman you're just crazy here

[grave geyser]

who the fuck is barry allen

[misty wren]

the flash

[grave geyser]

idk why some nobody would be the flash

[dusty tinsel]

a CIS guy for the police

[grave geyser]

seems kinda weirld

[pearl sentinel]

you get what i mean

[pearl sentinel]

idk

everyone knows wally west is the flash

[dusty tinsel]

he isn't a nobody he works for the police smh

[grave geyser]

idk I dont live in central city

[lyric trellis]

https://tenor.com/view/flash-gif-8708188

[lapis oak]

Why the subtitle is there before he even speaks

[misty wren]

no i dont because you just said an objectively false statement as though it was fact and used that to try to back up a claim

[pearl sentinel]

you get it

[dusty tinsel]

that's how subtitles work

clark kent is just some reporter has no relation to superman

[lapis oak]

No it isn't

Tupid Khamul

[dusty tinsel]

have you never seen subtitles in your life

they literally spoil things

[lapis oak]

Subtitles must sync

Or else 0/10

[dusty tinsel]

they barely do

you are 0/10

[lapis oak]

You only watch bad sub 😭

[dusty tinsel]

i don't even know what that means

i don't use subtitles very often

but every time i do they are always out of sync

[lapis oak]

Wow I was actually right

[misty wren]

either they start early on a pause or they extend through a pause

[lapis oak]

Guh

[dusty tinsel]

kiri just hacking at life

with their super subtitles

[misty wren]

in this case it starts early as theres no previous line that can carry through the pause

[lapis oak]

Sub can end later to give time to read, but not appear way before the line is actually spoken because then that's just bad sub

Immersion ruined

[pearl sentinel]

kiri this is just how subtitles work

tf are you on about

[lapis oak]

Omg you guys only watch bad sub

What is this

[pearl sentinel]

like not that early holy shit

that isnt the subtitle from the thing

thats been put onto the gif 😭

did you think that was

subtitles usually appear like just a bit before the dialogue

[misty wren]

its like just over a second too thats not that bad

[dusty tinsel]

kiri is just using super subtitles

kiri has subtitles that appear word by word

[lapis oak]

how is the West this bad!!!

you guys are used to glorpshit!

[dusty tinsel]

i am banishing you to brazil

specifically into the jungle

you can't leave it

[lapis oak]

😭

[buoyant pulsar]

are we getting more than 4 mage accessories in sso

Permafrost's Concoction
Mana Overloader
Sigil of Calamitas
Ethereal Talisman

[dusk bronze]

aren't the glass bands mage

[buoyant pulsar]

one of them is

[dusk bronze]

also chaos stone

[buoyant pulsar]

oh yeah chaos stone

so there's 5 i think

[lyric trellis]

Yeah

Like double the current amount

[buoyant pulsar]

double of zero is still zero /j

[dusk bronze]

eldritch soul artifact also gives a mage bonus but it does that for every class

[lyric trellis]

Unserious accessory

[dusk bronze]

i was looking to see if there were more (no) and HOLY FUCK why are there so many summoner acessories

easily half the offensive acessories in the mod are just summoner

[hexed basalt]

lmao

[lyric trellis]

It’s bleak currently

[dull heart]

One can argue chaos stone is Multiclass

[hexed basalt]

one can also argue elemental gauntlet is multiclass

[lyric trellis]

True…

[neat oxide]

@pliant sparrow

[pliant sparrow]

thanks

[lean relic]

a year old spoiler clip

[arctic cliff]

already in

[lapis oak]

Chaos Stone, Flesh Totem, and 2 bands

[buoyant pulsar]

i will always remember this one because i asked them for the music lol

[lyric trellis]

Also improved Mana Polarizer and potentially reworked Feather & Moonstone crowns

[buoyant pulsar]

i want old mana polarizer back where it just gives you +9999 max mana

[lapis oak]

Sunny doing devious things to those crowns

[lyric trellis]

Saving rogue and mage at the same time

[dull heart]

true but at least chaos stone has solid logic

the new one was explicitly designed to buff multiclass but still be mage centric

summoner can also use it solo pretty easily but they still don't get max mana accessories

[hardy gulch]

Does it make sense for the Early Hardmode Ore Progression Rework to be disabled by default in GFB

[flat rose]

because summoner progression is basically just accessories

[inland pulsar]

[flat rose]

like we got other shit going on but we just need more shit

inject that nucleogenesis juice directly into my veins

[thorny glacier]

@vivid ridge

Spammed across multiple channels

[steep path]

damn i could recognize the scam just from the image links 😭 been seeing that in my own server it's Annoying!!!!!!!!

[thorny glacier]

it’s on every channel💀

no more.

[still bluff]

(pinging staff mail doesn't do anything, you need to dm it to ping all the mods)

[thorny glacier]

👍

[azure oak]

sso in 2 fargo minutes

[mystic eagle]

What if I use Cosmolight to speed it up

[azure oak]

exploding

[buoyant pulsar]

fargo destroys you

[knotty sorrel]

what does fargo minutes mean?

[azure oak]

nothing

[knotty sorrel]

k

[azure oak]

is just kinda a meaningless joke metric

[knotty sorrel]

noted

[pulsar cobalt]

2 fargo minutes is equivalent to 0.03 fargo days

hope this helps

[prisma cipher]

Yeah

[azure oak]

fishe

[analog helm]

my aquarium is thriving

[mellow bridge]

New sunken sea is gonna be spread out like the abyss? Thats cool

[barren nacelle]

Rq what did you change in this iteration im blind af

[azure oak]

nothing i just reposted

[barren nacelle]

Oh alr lol

Goated as always nonetheless

[azure oak]

this channel's kinda been going dormant ever since we almost entirely stopped getting them in this channel

probably cause devs are a lot more willing to post them in the patreon server leaving us with less, though a lot of the spoilers used to be fishe so maybe there's just not much new to show

[barren nacelle]

I think we’ve reached that point where like

Most of development is polish rn

Not to say they aren’t adding new stuff but we’re certainly in that loop

[pseudo vector]

T2E progress report: i've got nearly 2 and a half minutes written now, all the song really needs is its opening parts and an ending

[thorny glacier]

[fathom girder]

a single pling and a single plon

[vestal osprey]

What does T2E stand for?

[fathom girder]

problem solved

[pulsar cobalt]

tier 2 encore

[vestal osprey]

What are the encores exactly?

[pseudo vector]

remakes / remixes of the old boss rush tracks, specifically tiers 1-3

because i don't like how the ogs sound

[fair gazelle]

Imo both version are good so far

Will the choice between the 2 versions be given ? @pseudo vector

[pseudo vector]

we have ideas as to how they'll be implemented

[fair gazelle]

The soundtracks or the options ?

I was just expecting some setting like "legacy boss rush soundtrack" kinda like infernum's SCal music

But if its another way that would definitely be interesting 🔥

[azure oak]

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

log 700 does sound pretty neat

[late eagle]

Giant clam is called king clam now?

[dry whale]

king clamitas

[high scaffold]

stohne

I wonder if grass will grow on it

And will jungle generation be adjusted to use more stohne at deeper levels

[placid wadi]

New exo mount nice

[vestal osprey]

Adding a bunch of sunken sea stuff and lore

Plus an exo tank

(Though ironicly enough exo mechs do have a connection to the sunken sea)

[placid wadi]

how so?

wasn't it all about Calamitas burning entire sea?

what do exo mechs have to do with that?

[cinder hearth]

Exo prisms are made from augmented synthetic sea prisms

[placid wadi]

except that of course

[cinder hearth]

Yeah that's the connection

[placid wadi]

honestly want to see that exo tank in action

i wonder what stage of the game it will be available at

hopefully not end game

[hushed hazel]

probably after the exos if i had to hazard a guess

[distant raft]

i remember hearing something about its obtainment method but i forget what

[vivid hemlock]

exo mechs master drop

[placid wadi]

rip

i never plan to beat calamity on master mode

[vestal osprey]

Fabsols terrible master Ai changes are being reverted so there's that

[vivid hemlock]

isnt everything exclusive to master also available on rev

[pulsar cobalt]

yes

[azure oak]

master mode drops that aren't just pets that are smaller versions of the bosses are nice to have

also tank funne

[halcyon seal]

@hushed hazel wow! this kind user is granting us information on mr beast!

[iron dew]

How did you predict that

[mystic eagle]

Shut the fuck up ^-^

Watch another appear in the next minute

[analog helm]

most peculiar

[wicked pewter]

hanst heart posted the wulfrum blocks in like calval huh

or are you not adding everythingg to this,

oh it was in calart but she also forwarded it to calval,

[pulsar cobalt]

o yea

marnite and driftwood furniture was shown off

not sure if orios saw tho

[wicked pewter]

oh that too right

[pulsar cobalt]

@azure oak cant be bothered to look for marnite but heres wulfrum and driftwood

[halcyon seal]

driftwood furniture looks incredible

[dull heart]

I've been cooking again

[lean relic]

what were you cooking

[dull heart]

this (among other things)

[pulsar cobalt]

is this for stratus sphere

[dull heart]

no

I am probably going to readd Stratus Sphere today though

[tidal lodge]

I forget was that a mage weapon?

[dull heart]

yes

mage nebula arcanum spiky ball

[tidal lodge]

Couldn't you only have like 6 out at a time or is that something else

[molten grove]

that is not the sunken idol
ancient smooth navystone is already public technically ((((((read its name))))))))
banners are asset submissions
what the ell is that skytide sprite

[dull heart]

Correct

[azure oak]

tobias sproite

[dull heart]

Stratus Sphere is gonna be peak

[pulsar cobalt]

if ur going to make stratus sphere good can u make the other "pillar weapon but stronger" weapons better too?

[dull heart]

no

[pulsar cobalt]

💔 💔 🫗 🫗 🫗

[azure oak]

anyways i'm not doing chart edits rn cause my arm hurts

[inner thunder]

add an upgrade to absorber

[dull heart]

No

[molten grove]

[cold bluff]

heart of elements upgrade to endgame

[dull heart]

no

[cold bluff]

[hard copper]

step stool upgrade to endgame!!!

[stone zephyr]

more mage reworks

[azure oak]

endgame sandblaster upgrade that shoots out any block in your inventory rather than only sand

[hard copper]

shoots auric ore

[azure oak]

shoots 1 block per frame

[fathom girder]

please actually

[simple raptor]

loved the part where yharim said "what is this some form of a calamity?"

[fathom girder]

pressing up now phases you up instantly

anywhere, always

can be used to dodge attacks

[cold bluff]

gives you I frames and a dodge, its basically a vertical dash but more controlled

[simple raptor]

did you guys enjoy the part where yharim said "is this some devourer of gods?"

[fringe quiver]

collect my balls!

collect my shiny translucid indeterminate ball

[analog helm]

auric ore projectiles that shock you like scrap baby during salvaging

[dense sundial]

Anyone have a clip of 2.1 Devil’s Devastation

I can never remember whether it’s public

[pulsar cobalt]

thats part of the oathblade line right? think they were shown off

give me a sec

@dense sundial

[dense sundial]

Thank ye

[silent wren]

add a double jump to the celestial tracers

[distant raft]

exo stepstool that brings you to the aerie

[dull heart]

oops I may have accidentally caused an item to do almost 20% of DoG's HP in one hit

[cunning sequoia]

welcome back dumbell

[pulsar cobalt]

keep it in like that

[dull heart]

no

[pulsar cobalt]

why not

[dull heart]

because it's a dust monster still I have to make it pretty

[pulsar cobalt]

oh ok just make it not shoot as much dust but keep it the same damage

[misty wren]

deep sea dumbbell returns

[fathom girder]

See i'd agree to keep it

But DoG is cool now so

[lean relic]

cactus

[halcyon seal]

This shit is awesome god DAMN

[misty monolith]

what the fuck this is so cool

[sand dome]

Poggies

I was sad when that got removed that was a cool weapon

[tropic jolt]

big sword

[dull heart]

eh

it had potential but it didn't deliver

now it will deliver

[lean relic]

Stratus Sphere fans return

[dusk bronze]

hi

i'm here

[dusty tinsel]

Not anymore

!ban Xzier

[dense marsh]

hi
I'm here

[calm ingot]

Fuck yeah
I was so sad when it got removed

Hey instead of buffing this weapon that sucks let’s just get rid of it

[spark kiln]

i don’t think it was removed because if its damage

[cinder hearth]

Hi here

[dense marsh]

How is spoiler talk doing

wait

oh

oh ok buddy

[dusk bronze]

okbuddycalspoiler

[rich ginkgo]

im poilering

[trim kelp]

Do we get lategame hover wings by any chance?

[dull heart]

starboard

[arctic dawn]

chat devils devastation reowrk got leaked?

[dusk bronze]

it was posted by a dev in their own server

so someone crossposted it here

[arctic dawn]

I found it

its cool but its nothing like the old one

they reworked it entirely

[azure oak]

the entire weapon line is getting reworked

[dusk bronze]

yeah
that's the point
of a rework

to rework it

[arctic dawn]

I was expecting them to make it like the old lord claymore and bladecrest or something\

[dusk bronze]

they're reworking those too

[arctic dawn]

or maybe theyre doing that for forbidden oathblade

[arctic dawn]

they already recived significant changes though

especially old lord claymore

[dusk bronze]

they're doing it again

[arctic dawn]

damn

[dusk bronze]

see orios chart

[arctic dawn]

well, im hyped, I hope the dps is as good as the original

[dusk bronze]

@azure oak , the chart

[azure oak]

the chart.

[arctic dawn]

devils sunrise is also reworked

cool

[arctic dawn]

refraction rotor is also being reworked also very nice

[upper plover]

No more 28 second polterghast kill (which is fair)

[arctic dawn]

so theyre nerfing it too

damn

[mystic eagle]

Yes

[calm ingot]

Grand dad??

Never thought it’d return

[mystic eagle]

As there is no reason to make it easier to obtain and keep it broken as fuck

[upper plover]

I mean, 28 seconds is kind of an absurd level of busted

[arctic dawn]

i hope they make deaths ascension true melee actually good ts time

[lyric trellis]

Grand Dad ❤️

[sand dome]

sometimes more simple weapons can also be satisfying imo

[dusk bronze]

iridescent excalibur dying tho
a soul for a soul

[upper plover]

The sprite lives on in Orderbringer, that's all that matters

[dusk bronze]

ture

[upper plover]

Isn't the BH Iridescent Excalibur weaker than the pre-BH Iridescent Excalibur or am I misremembering?

[lyric trellis]

It’s definitely weaker but that’s the price it paid for looking a bit nicer

[stuck kite]

the main issue that sent stratus sphere to the void is really that its a glorified spiky ball and you know how much people love spiky balls

[sand dome]

spiky balls are awesome i still remember the doc

it was glorious

[stuck kite]

like if you loved stratus sphere for what it functionally did, please go try hell's sun and come back with your results

the resemblances are un

cannily similar

[sand dome]

yeah but then i'd have to play terraria to do that

[dusty tinsel]

Time to force you to play terraria against your will

[stuck kite]

has a throw limit, sits still at an fixed uncontrollable distance from the player as you use it, floats there menacingly shitting out projectiles

[trim kelp]

Ursa sergeant rework already known?

[haughty crag]

any suggestions for pre-exos scal infernum

[dull heart]

these are all still true of new stratus sphere

[stuck kite]

truly born to spiky ball

[dusk bronze]

#calamity-addon-talk

[lyric trellis]

Wait until next update to test it!

[upper plover]

how suncanny

[dull heart]

hell's sun died for Stratus Sphere to live on

[high scaffold]

sir, why u have 9 accessory slots?

[haughty crag]

wing+boot slots

[high scaffold]

tolerable

[fringe quiver]

weak.... || get 12 acessory slots instead ||

[haughty crag]

how can i acquire 12

[fringe quiver]

There's mods that give you more lmao

[high scaffold]

Im losing faith in humanity

[haughty crag]

shield slot

[rich ginkgo]

it’s just qol bro what’s the problem

😭 😭

[fathom girder]

This ain't qol this is "free accessory"

[fringe quiver]

it is in fact just free acessory and its pretty funny

[dull heart]

well I mean you have to choose between

Community and Scom

[vestal osprey]

Wing slot be like

[fringe quiver]

like if people want free acessory

then let them use free acessory

bitches be like i hate qol mods! brother in christ you choose which mods to use

[vestal osprey]

(Not dissing wing slot, i use it all the time)

[dusty tinsel]

I am going to make a mod that allows you to have enough accessory slots to equip every equipable item in the game /j

[fringe quiver]

terraria elitism more like your mom haha gottem

[dusty tinsel]

Cheese I am sending you to the quantum realm

[fringe quiver]

sad

[vestal osprey]

That sounds like fargos soul with way less steps

[dull heart]

I have a valid reason to dislike QoL mods when like... They change how people experience the mods I make

I don't really care except when people purport some QoL mods as "necessary" to a playthrough in general

[dusty tinsel]

The only qol I use of note are magic storage, alchnpc lite, and the current veinminer lol

The rest are not as impactful

Though I guess evil begone killing biome spread

[fringe quiver]

thats entirely valid yeah

no mods should be necessary ever you make your own modpack. the mods that are necessary are up to YOU :theterrarian:

its just very obnoxious how much elitism there is around calamity and tmod circles in general tbh!

Whether it's in the circles of the players who play the mods or the people who make the mods

[dusty tinsel]

Obviously recipe browser is necessary got to invalidate the guide as much as possible

[pearl sentinel]

thats exists alr

that one mod where u put them in a chest

and it turns them it on

[dull heart]

like people recommending the "alcohols are all sold again" mod to the general person after I add the new alcohol brewing system is gonna be not cool

no issue using it if you want it, but giving it to people who haven't even tried the intended way will be oof

[fringe quiver]

yeah thats lame

[real axle]

brewing system?

[dull heart]

Alcohols will all be receiving reworks and new obtainment methods

[calm ingot]

In sso or later?

[dull heart]

reworks will lean more into what they've always tried to do - specific upside and specific downside

But both will actually matter

[fringe quiver]

we love risk vs reward 🩷

[dull heart]

like White Wine is -50% flight time, but flight regenerates when near an enemy

[real axle]

Damn, that's actually way cooler than just buying/crafting them

[dull heart]

Great for anyone playing up close, bad for anyone else

The new brewing system will encourage going to different areas in the world to get the resources to brew stuff

[fringe quiver]

my favorite alcohols were always the one that just kill your defense for dps or mobility lol

I love glass cannon playstyles

[fringe quiver]

thats awesome actually

[dull heart]

And it'll have a balancing game of output amount vs speed to brew

[fringe quiver]

Calamity def needs some more exploration incentive

[dull heart]

You can go all in on yield and use very little of the main ingredient

but it'll take a while to brew

[calm ingot]

Especially post moon lord

[dull heart]

or you can go all in on speed and get it fast, but you'll get less potions per main ingredient

[calm ingot]

Can I ask if there’s any post moon lord exploration stuff planned besides mining 2 ores and a trip to the abyss

[fringe quiver]

I mean there's definitely stuff planned just, not now

[calm ingot]

Well yeah

[dull heart]

Depends on when it's finished

[dull heart]

yes

eventually

[fringe quiver]

evil biome content in post ml is basically a guaranteed, given we're getting post ml evil2 and concept art for a post ml crimson enemy has kinda been made already
there'll also some more sulphur sea post ml content that isn't just acid rain
the possibility of a profaned biome?
distortion stuff too obviously but that's quite a while away

[dull heart]

The major one is Distortion

[dull heart]

What if I added a dog

[fathom girder]

Devourer of DoGs

[stone fiber]

A Legend Cat from a hit mobile game The Battle Cats smh

[still bluff]

Everclear my beloved!!!!!

[stone fiber]

Do it

Pretty sure there won't be one

The weapons will probably just drop from the bosses

The Thorium mod one

[dusk bronze]

true..

[keen zodiac]

the community but its a consumable

[analog helm]

the community does look delicious

[brave star]

What flavor does the community have

[lucid torrent]

Chocolate

[keen zodiac]

rock candy

and to upgrade it you have to have the witch curse(?) you

[molten grove]

its p much a curse yea

[calm ingot]

Does the opposite evil island getting removed mean no more crimson in corruption worlds unless you make it manually?

[dusty tinsel]

Cheese biome when

I tend to use both evil biome mod just because the floating island usually gets overridden by the sky biome and doesn't end up working as intended

[left sequoia]

Man this scopecreep is insane r now

2 years jesus

[calm ingot]

It happens when you’re a mod dev
You think of one single idea and it turns turns into an entire rework complete with a new biome and new enemies

[buoyant pulsar]

to be honest, weapon design like this just kind of annoys me

how are you supposed to even use this as a spear

theres a giant serpent thing in the way

[dusty tinsel]

It's got two pointy ends

The serpents mouth

It's a two pronged spear

[buoyant pulsar]

why does this even

this is just harder to actually hold

[rich ginkgo]

no its not

[buoyant pulsar]

how does the serpent thing feel about being swung around

[dusty tinsel]

It has a spot to hold it and only one

[dusty tinsel]

I don't think it's alive to tell you

[rich ginkgo]

^

[buoyant pulsar]

it just makes it heavier for no reason

[rich ginkgo]

considering it’s dead im pretty sure it doesnt mind

[buoyant pulsar]

cal players when they're presented with a sensible argument

[rich ginkgo]

you know not everything has to meet realistic standards, right

[dusty tinsel]

I mean we can literally hold a lot of blocks of like the heaviest stuff in our backpacks which is 2 by 2 feet each. It's light work to carry it

[rich ginkgo]

how realistic is moonlord

and scals magic

[buoyant pulsar]

this doesn't even look wieldable

[calm ingot]

Wait until I show you the weapons that are literally just a fish

[buoyant pulsar]

this is such a ridiculous argument to make

[dusty tinsel]

Saying something is too heavy when the character carries like a billion tons on a daily basis is just hilarious 😂

[buoyant pulsar]

it's the difference between a gun that shoots a deathray and a gun with an actual gun-like shape that shoots a deathray

[rich ginkgo]

cant remember the last time i saw cthulhu from the moon and magical witches out on the street

[dusty tinsel]

I fought moon lord irl the other day

[calm ingot]

Last Tuesday for me

I live in Florida

[rich ginkgo]

along with 10 foot tall yharim and his fucking pet dragon

havent seen him in a while tbh

[dusty tinsel]

If you go to Australia there are like a hundred moon lords from what I have heard

[buoyant pulsar]

i hate it here /lh

[rich ginkgo]

not surprised smh

[dusty tinsel]

Complaining about the realism of a sprite when it's a fantasy game is always funny to see

[buoyant pulsar]

im not talking realism i just don't think it even looks aesthetically good

if it was a staff then sure, but you have to actually move that thing around and hit stuff with it

[rich ginkgo]

then resprite it and post it in asset submissions in the cal art server

[buoyant pulsar]

yeah yeah

[dusty tinsel]

I don't even know what those spears are lol

[calm ingot]

Exoblade is the only one that’s so unrealistic it actually pisses me off

[buoyant pulsar]

good thing it's getting changed

[viral merlin]

Remove exoblade

[buoyant pulsar]

great idea

[rich ginkgo]

i dont think terraria

or calamity

is meant to be realistic

[buoyant pulsar]

bruh

[rich ginkgo]

in like any way shape or form

[buoyant pulsar]

get over the realism thing

[buoyant pulsar]

anyway this is probably just the inventory sprite and the actual thing will be longer like most spears

[viral merlin]

I think what that guy meant is the weapon designs or whatever

[terse dew]

Terraria if it was Realistic YouTube series

☹️

[rich ginkgo]

ok yeah but that’s the same thing lok

[buoyant pulsar]

with dubstep music and random artistic renditions

[rich ginkgo]

“it looks too heavy” ok its a fictional weapon

idk what to tell you 😭

[buoyant pulsar]

that's not even what i mean

[fringe quiver]

I like the concept but i think the serpent itself could be toned down a bit and the tip of it could be pointier

[buoyant pulsar]

i mean shit like this

how do you hold this

[rich ginkgo]

ask the terrarian

they manage to pull it off

[terse dew]

Two hands above and below the orb

[buoyant pulsar]

thats not an answer

[terse dew]

Use your teeth to draw it

[viral merlin]

With mind

[rich ginkgo]

yes it is because the terrarian can hold it

[viral merlin]

Telekinesis

[rich ginkgo]

silly

[calm ingot]

How does the terrarian hold 90% of weapons in the game that are like 5 times their size

[fringe quiver]

Realsim dosen't matter at all but adequately making something feel believable enough where immersion does the job for you of forgetting that it can't actually function does

[buoyant pulsar]

microscopic-handle-for-giant-sword-itis

[viral merlin]

I'm more surprised that it shoots because of that fuckass ball in the middle

[terse dew]

Right, but this is also a fantasy 2d game

[buoyant pulsar]

you know what's way cooler than having teensy tiny handles for massive swords? having giant handles

giant grips

whatever you wanna call em

[rich ginkgo]

but it’s funny

[terse dew]

You kind of have to suspend your belief going into it

[rich ginkgo]

so like

[fringe quiver]

I think the spear with the snake is a really cool concept but the snake itself is like really big and i do think it'd be a bit better if the snake was a bit smaller and the tip of the spear was a little larger

[viral merlin]

Giant handles tiny blades

[buoyant pulsar]

suspension of disbelief is different than design flaw

[viral merlin]

🔥

[buoyant pulsar]

we call that a spear /j

[dusty tinsel]

I mean there are tons of fantasy weapons that aren't realistically usable lol

[buoyant pulsar]

this is the point i'm trying to make

[calm ingot]

Some of the weapons look impractical to use as weapons regardless of in a fantasy context or not

[dusty tinsel]

Like links weapon is way too long to even remove from the scabbard in some of the games 😂

So they cheat and clip it through

[buoyant pulsar]

again, suspension of disbelief is different than design flaw

[buoyant pulsar]

exactly

[dusty tinsel]

Clouds sword is way too large to be a realistic weapon either

[sand dome]

rule of cool imo

[viral merlin]

There's a solution for that

[rich ginkgo]

ive never seen it as this much of a big deal

[viral merlin]

Make every weapon look like shit

[fringe quiver]

I mean i don't think it is a big deal

[rich ginkgo]

could just be me 🤷‍♂️

[buoyant pulsar]

but at least it actually has a large handle and if someone was actually strong enough they could hold it, and it looks aesthetically pleasing

[buoyant pulsar]

fabsolian era /j

[fringe quiver]

But regardless of it not being a big deal you can still give feedback

[calm ingot]

I never really noticed or cared until now
Now I’m going to inspect every sprite because of this conversation

[hard copper]

Its a fantasy weapon, its meant to be cool not practical.

[dusty tinsel]

I guess cloud is just a beast even though he doesn't look like he could lift it lol

[buoyant pulsar]

look at the bow ones those are the worst

[viral merlin]

So everything before he was booted

[dusty tinsel]

Cloud is secretly buff

[viral merlin]

Which was a few months ago

[buoyant pulsar]

it's basic aesthetic design, this argument is so flawed

[fringe quiver]

This chat often flips around between being horrible at giving out criticism or just being horrible at handling others giving feedback

Spoiler hell

[buoyant pulsar]

both simultaneously <3

[fringe quiver]

Honestly yeah most of the time

[rich ginkgo]

i just dont get how everything needs to be practical

[fringe quiver]

It dosen't

[rich ginkgo]

some things are good just the way they are

that being, cool and interesting

[viral merlin]

Which is rarely the case

[rich ginkgo]

i mean that’s quite literally the argument

[hard copper]

How so?

[fringe quiver]

The point being made, atleast on my end, isn't that it needs to be practical

It's that the spear thing with the snake could have some changes to imo make it a bit more aesthetically pleasing given the snake is really big and it kinda overshadows the spear itself which mixed with the fact it's notably not that pointy gives it a not very Spear looking silhouette

I would probably not be able to tell it was a spear with prior context

It's kind of hard to read as one i think

[rich ginkgo]

it does damage so im gonna assume it’s able to deal damage regardless if it looks like it can or not lol

just my take 🤷‍♂️

[fringe quiver]

That is not my point also

[viral merlin]

It looks like a mage staff

[fringe quiver]

Yes it does in fact look like a mage staff

It's not very readable as a spear

My entire point is about the silhouette

[dusty tinsel]

It has two prongs instead of one which means it's not even a spear 😂

[fringe quiver]

Not wether it can do damage or not or whether it looks like it realistically could

[viral merlin]

Not readable as a spear at all*

[rich ginkgo]

oh yeah

that i can actually agree with

[viral merlin]

If you were to put it in mage staff category you probably wouldn't even know that it's actually a spear

[dusty tinsel]

Summon weapon

[rich ginkgo]

i dont care if its realistic or not but it could at least be labeled correctly

[dusty tinsel]

What's it called

[dusty tinsel]

That ain't a spear

[rich ginkgo]

two pronged fork

[dusty tinsel]

That's a duork

[viral merlin]

Twork

[buoyant pulsar]

its a bident, which is the same thing

[rich ginkgo]

yes

the twork

very good

[buoyant pulsar]

this

i have to admit, it would look sick as a mage staff

but it doesn't read as a spear whatsoever

[buoyant pulsar]

not like the GOAT does

[viral merlin]

By the looks of it, it doesn't even have a spear head
Literally just a head of whatever that thing is

Impaled on a literal stick

[dusty tinsel]

Spears are just onorks

[glass cosmos]

its a bident

[hard copper]

Sounds more like a pole arm than a spear, the sprite could probably reflect that.

[dusty tinsel]

I mean spears are polearms if you think about it

Dnd kinda includes them in that category

[hard copper]

Yeah they are very similar

[dusty tinsel]

Mind you dnd also includes quarter staves

It's a pole with a weapon at the end

Though the pole is also a weapon

Bludgeon people to death

[buoyant pulsar]

yes and dnd is famous for its incredibly detailed and accurate weapon functionalities

[dusty tinsel]

I can't tell if you are being sarcastic with that

[buoyant pulsar]

i am lol

[hard copper]

A halberd would also be cool; with the eel weaving around the axe head part

[buoyant pulsar]

agree

[dusty tinsel]

Well yah it can't be realistic. If it was you could just win instantly by stabbing someone in the correct spot XD

[hard copper]

True

[still cobalt]

Sso 3 tomorrow

[lucid torrent]

Sso 30

[dusty tinsel]

Calamity 29 tomorrow

[lapis oak]

calamity poiler talk

doze is reviving Stratus Sphere!?? 😨

[dusty tinsel]

It's becoming the kiri sphere

Kiri needs to be contained kiri is too powerful

[lapis oak]

is doze making constellation or something? 🤔

that'd be really cool I really love space stuff

[dusty tinsel]

Clearly the spoiler is the shadowy thing in the first image

[lapis oak]

vas...?

what shadowy thing?

...omg I can't see it

has to turned up brightness

[dusty tinsel]

Yah I don't know what it is

Or if it's relevant

But I saw that just now and was like hmmmm

[dusk bronze]

behind the player?

[dusty tinsel]

Is that just a tree

[dusk bronze]

it's a background tree

yeah

[lapis oak]

wait that is just background tree

[dusty tinsel]

Background tree spoiler jump scare

[barren nacelle]

Boreal tree

[lapis oak]

my constellation theory is not dead phews

[barren nacelle]

Are we getting like

Aurora Borealis since that’s a cold biome

[lapis oak]

looks like constellation

[barren nacelle]

Oh right yes those are easier to see farther north

[lapis oak]

with the line between 2 dots

[barren nacelle]

My question is do you think this is gonna be functional or purely cosmetic

[lapis oak]

well

for doze I guess it'll be related to weapons or something 😢

so it's not like a background thingys that you see at night

but at least being space related is still cool enough

if that is even the case

LOOK AT WHAT DOZE JUST POSTED IN CMT

HOLY SHIT I WAS RIGHT

LET'S GOOOOOO

wait a minute

[dusty tinsel]

https://tenor.com/view/eyes-burning-my-eyes-spongebob-gif-5183364

[vivid hemlock]

kiri passed the pattern recognition test

[lapis oak]

ok I know that's Signus joke but he's definitely looking at constellations

so I'm still right!!!

[dusty tinsel]

When was that even posted

[lapis oak]

just now in cmt

[dusty tinsel]

Also light mode user means I have to remove you from existence sorry

[lapis oak]

😭 light mode is fine!!!

[dusty tinsel]

It's literally broken

[brave star]

Holy shit i didn’t even know that was a constellation

[summer shore]

It's clearly for galaxia

[dusty tinsel]

It's the swan constellation

[buoyant pulsar]

kiri......... not light mode..................

[lapis oak]

😭

too much hate for light mode!!!

[dusty tinsel]

Yah because it's bad

I only accept light mode use if you can't use dark mode

[hardy gulch]

Wrong, lightmode is good

[dusty tinsel]

Another user I will be casting obliterate at 9th level on

[hardy gulch]

the spell fails and is wasted

[dusty tinsel]

Good because it's a homebrew spell and I forgot that it doesn't exist in base dnd

I meant disintegrate

9th level go

Subtle

[hardy gulch]

i cast avascular mass actually

[vivid hemlock]

old hag

[lapis oak]

VAS!??

I'm not a hag!!!

[hardy gulch]

what???? hag?????

[lapis oak]

🤬

and I'm not old either!

[dusty tinsel]

Hey being a hag would be neat I guess. You get to be a witch

And a fey

[dull heart]

who would post that

[dusty tinsel]

You did

[pine vortex]

Clearly this means we now fight signus in space

[dusty tinsel]

Signus teleporting you into actual space and you have to beat him before you run out of breath

[hardy gulch]

how does one do that when you use the rune of kos to fight storm weaver

[dusty tinsel]

Storm Weaver is now spawned in the underworld

[hardy gulch]

dont dig up be like

[dull heart]

ok but which one

There's 88

[fringe quiver]

storm weaver is now spawned in the sunken sea because thats the biome with the most electricity in the mod

[lapis oak]

any is good!

[dull heart]

No

[lapis oak]

😨 ?

[dull heart]

if I'm picking a constellation I wouldn't just pick a random constellation

[misty monolith]

libra because i’m a libra

[dull heart]

no

[misty monolith]

[buoyant pulsar]

please do cancer

i like that constellation

[lapis oak]

of course u not picking random, but for me any is already good hehe, more space stuff

[dull heart]

who said it's more space stuff

what if it's the same amount of space stuff

[lapis oak]

😨 ??

[dull heart]

what if it's less space stuff

[buoyant pulsar]

dont tell him im a cancer

[tropic jolt]

libra

[summer shore]

🦀 this you?

[misty monolith]

yea this is me and i’m also liberal because of it so i support the woke pronoun army

[tropic jolt]

scary

[brave star]

Mine is Capricorn bc I am a Capricorn

[dusty tinsel]

I am also a Libra lol

I am in no way balanced though like a scale

[dull heart]

701 - Added Cancer. - Done ✅

[fringe quiver]

like the trinket

gives you +1 firerate

[pine vortex]

Best trinket in the game

[brave star]

Spoiler: my mom is eating a mango for dessert

(The mango part was why I posted this)

[dull heart]

stip...

no...

good think nobody was looking

[dusk bronze]

whar

[dull heart]

whar

[strong isle]

It's not my fault my braincells are being consumed by rodents....

[lapis oak]

vas?

[dull heart]

now i wanna make crab dance but it's the constellation cancer

[lapis oak]

what just happened?

[dull heart]

nothing

mhm

[lapis oak]

grrrr...

[dusk bronze]

doze tell us or i'll eat the wacro code

[strong isle]

I did.... you should ask your mom about it

(Sorry I had to make that joke)

[viral merlin]

Yay Cancer!

Tears Up!

Surely I won't grab a tick on accident

[dull heart]

No

what I will tell you is I have plans involving 3 constellations

[boreal edge]

That's right doze is adding a Genshin Impact crossover

[lapis oak]

YEEEEEEE

I LOVE SPACE I FUCKING LOVE SPACE

doze the GOAT

[dull heart]

shhh

[cerulean plinth]

So uhh... Quick question?

Memes allowed here?

[fathom girder]

probably not

[viral merlin]

No

[terse dew]

Worst crossover possible

[dull heart]

r u sure

[fathom girder]

Fun fact Doze is making invoked stargod real in clamity

[terse dew]

Actually no, there are worse games

[dull heart]

activated constellation deity

[fathom girder]

binding of isaac 🔥

[terse dew]

It's okay I play bad games too

🙂‍↕️

[cold bluff]

[cerulean plinth]

F

I was gonna post the devourer of God's theme with the freedom motif XD

[fathom girder]

explode

[cerulean plinth]

To bad

[cerulean plinth]

Noo!!!-o 💥

[fathom girder]

It's not even SPOILERS

[lapis oak]

this isn't even the right place

[cerulean plinth]

Wii crash SFX

[fathom girder]

the fundamental nature of new users and not understanding what spoilers chat means

[lapis oak]

and that go in #general-media

[fathom girder]

is a universal constant

[cerulean plinth]

Alr

[dusty tinsel]

[dull heart]

have fun with that @lapis oak

[lapis oak]

YEEEES

[dusty tinsel]

it is a constellation

[lapis oak]

THE GOAT

[dull heart]

it is not a goat

sorry

[dusty tinsel]

you are the goat

[lapis oak]

😨 not what I meant

anyways

🙏

[dusty tinsel]

doze is now the goat

[dull heart]

so nothing changed

[lapis oak]

tru...

[dull heart]

i made pogo stick fun again so objectively goat

[dusty tinsel]

it wasn't fun already?

[dull heart]

but yeah have fun figuring this one out

[dull heart]

not after the nerf cal gave it

now it's just depressing

[dull heart]

this is probably the last image for it I'll post for a while unless I have reason to post another

[fathom girder]

Was about to ask if you were on an uber pogo but it's just exo chair

Draedon pogo when

[dull heart]

auric rejection pogo stick

[fathom girder]

Endgame offensive mount

[dull heart]

honestly this looking as good as it does here makes me sad

I feel like the full constellation looks less cool

[fathom girder]

Why not have minor constellations in the sky at night

[dusty tinsel]

it's a skooter

[dull heart]

maybe they're already there and you haven't looked

[fathom girder]

They'd be something to look at, like clouds, with a few that hold meaning or some that are easter eggs idk

Clouds 2 but nighttime

[dull heart]

unfortunately I can't really pick any other constellation either due to just

reasons

[lapis oak]

I don't think so

[dusty tinsel]

you just aren't looking

[lapis oak]

🤬

[dusty tinsel]

there are at least 0

[dull heart]

it's not like the sky would magically draw lines to connect them

That would not make sense

[dusty tinsel]

god of constellations wanting to flex their connect the dots skills 🔥

[lapis oak]

but ye real stars to mark constellations to look at night would be really cool to have 🥹

like Stellar View or Astrocraft mods from Minecraft they're so cool I love them

[fathom girder]

Xerox gets bored and shows the terrarian the meaning of life through constellations

[dull heart]

True

[dull heart]

Well uhh

oops ping rip

you can have the one constellation

if you fly high enough it'll be in the sky

[lapis oak]

yay!!!

[dull heart]

of course you'll also be stuck in the sky but

shrug

[high snow]

You should highkey add me to calamity

[dull heart]

no

[lapis oak]

space base real 🙏

[high snow]

I thought we were friends but I guess not

Sigh

[fathom girder]

Grips you

Around the ankle

Spins you around

[high snow]

You forgot these guys *

[dull heart]

so far I have implemented two constellations

[fathom girder]

Nope

I have forgotten nothing

[high snow]

That's really cool

[dull heart]

there is one further to implement which will be the most difficult but also coolest

[high snow]

Maybe you should make one spell out gripper king

[dull heart]

get an IRL official constellation that does that

then we'll talk

[white aurora]

[dusty tinsel]

torch god event, but instead of torches it's stars

[high snow]

The big dipper is actually meant to be called gripper king but big f. Dipper stole it

[dull heart]

that's just the title screen minigame

[high snow]

And named it after himself

So what about it

[dull heart]

if it wasn't for Polaris Parrotfish already stealing Polaris I would have put Ursa Minor as a constellation

[high snow]

What about...

Gripper kingis

[lapis oak]

oh shoot

Polaris won't be in I see

[dull heart]

There was a brief discussion in dev

[lapis oak]

I guess that's 1 less to guess

[dusk bronze]

cetus would be cool i think

[dull heart]

but between Polaris Parrotfish and Polaris Gaze (galaxia)

Yeah

[lapis oak]

ye

can see that

[high snow]

What about scorpius

Poison tears

[dull heart]

What about it

[high snow]

It's pretty goated

You could add a gripper king constellation

Not like I want you to or anything

[latent portal]

• check calamity spoiler talk
• no spoilers
  

[dull heart]

This specifically is an issue bc I wanted to use the name Polaris which would be confusing

[latent portal]

hello fellas, how you doin?

[white aurora]

wawa

[dull heart]

I literally sent one like half an hour ago

[lapis oak]

literally discussing spoilers right now

[late eagle]

Constellation

[latent portal]

damn

nice

[high snow]

Oh come on you gotta make a gripper king one

[white aurora]

is this for galaxia or sum else :3

[dull heart]

not for galaxia

[high snow]

You can't just tease me like that

[latent portal]

i don't even understand it lmao

[white aurora]

ah

[latent portal]

but looks nice

[rich ginkgo]

what is this supposed to be

[dull heart]

It's not the full constellation

[high snow]

They're essentially star patterns

Big dipper and the like

[white aurora]

yeah i have no clue what its going to be for but it looks neat :3

[dull heart]

its also an IRL constellation

[latent portal]

[lapis oak]

Galaxia's constellations aren't real

[rich ginkgo]

so like
night sky improvements

[lapis oak]

the blessings are real but they'll die anyways

[dull heart]

I'm sure someone will guess what it is at some point

[lapis oak]

so

[high snow]

The hunter guy from greek mythology who's name begins with o
