[buoyant pulsar]

idk like similar sfx to what hellkite has

maybe a glowmask/outline around it that gets brighter and crackles w/ electricity or smth

idk like it does so much damage so it may as well look cool

again smth like hellkite would be cool, with a metallic 'cling' sorta sound idk

extra sfx could definitely be one of the finishing touches that pushes it over the edge imo

[slate folio]

Why haven't developers resprited this yet

Shouldn't it be a priority

This is stuff that actually needs resprites

Why are the only attempts to replace these are from calart submissions

[rich ginkgo]

they all get voted out too as if anybody else is willing to step up to do them lmao

[fast vessel]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/881323705064636416/1400528137229434921/image.png?ex=688cf6f8&is=688ba578&hm=45ed695e3df81ccc8b25ddf554f72281ebb86648faf1f64ee70f87b122049d7e&
so I saw this image earlier. For the arsenal armor, does it need to be charged like the weapons? Also, What does the glass canon armor do between the active and inactive states?

[pearl sentinel]

oh i see its taking so long because they're focusing on the unique seeds which is of course what everyone loves about terraria

[halcyon seal]

Tbh I’m more than down for 1.4.5 being a random bullshit go update

More secret seeds are always fun to mess around with

Even if some of them like no traps/constant are kinda made irrelevant by gfb’s existence

[glass cosmos]

I mean, there's gonna be a skyblock seed

that sounds fun

at least 1.4.5 is coming out this year

I don't see it getting delayed for another year

[tropic jolt]

yeah...

[halcyon seal]

Pretty sure relogic explicitly said no 1.4.5 in 2025

[pearl sentinel]

shit got announced 3 years ago twin

[halcyon seal]

Ok? Terraria’s in a very good spot rn

I am more than fine waiting a very long time for the update

[rich ginkgo]

the longer 1.4.5 takes the longer i get to be able to play my mods until 1.4.5 is ported to tmod and everything is fucked for 3 months

i could care less

[arctic cliff]

source?

[pseudo vector]

they didn’t say it wasn’t coming out this year, but they did say they don’t know when its coming out yet

[hardy gulch]

Relogic should keep delaying 1.4.5
i want to see how crazy it gets

[cinder hearth]

1.4.5 is the SSO of terraria

[dusk bronze]

1.5 soon trust

[hardy gulch]

1.5 should not exist cause itd cause tmodloader to detonate with a blast radius higher than a Neutronium bomb

[molten grove]

nah that goes to mobile players waiting for 1.3

[cinder hearth]

1.4.5 was meant to be a small update that keeps getting bigger and bigger because of scope creep

Exactly the same as SSO

[vestal osprey]

Ironicly enough there was an update for 1.3 that happened too

It eventually became 1.4

There's a non zero chance this may become 1.5

[molten grove]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/404768633470844938/483454480008871983/curbyour13hate.png?ex=688d7012&is=688c1e92&hm=86e4e4e2518a2605e2ceeccbe38aac39a35f2202ca75eb07eab1a5d395149efa&

[pseudo vector]

1.4.5 coming out before SSO is a scenario we probably don't want happening lmao

[molten grove]

itll be fine, tml will take a year to update

[pseudo vector]

tml moment

[granite smelt]

can they stop making seeds

[vestal osprey]

They need to make a seed thats 200x times more bullshit then getfixedboi

[granite smelt]

just play satanist mode instead

[molten grove]

no more….

[granite smelt]

there you go

[cobalt wharf]

i think it’s been proven by now that this tactic doesn’t make people not want to play the seeds

[lyric trellis]

Seed that corrupts all your files

[cinder hearth]

Calamity devs seeing yet another joke seed they gotta make more content for :

[vestal osprey]

Make a seed that adds malware to your computer that will prevent you from doing snything else but playing terraria

[lyric trellis]

Definitely have to

[cobalt wharf]

overhaul seed

why didn’t calamity make content for no traps seed what de fuck

[hardy gulch]

correct

[lyric trellis]

500 auric landmines next update

[hexed basalt]

if we make more actual content for seeds

except for the random jokes in gfb and maintenence in that and ftw because those are kinda needed now I suppose

[spark kiln]

i was one of them

[native thistle]

Calamity mob

[lapis oak]

Mmm, poiler talk

Still waiting for Arc Nova resprite 🥺

[proud plover]

Wasn’t it resprited just recently?

Magna Cannon however could use a visual glowup imo

[brave star]

Why can’t they function as beds too

Pods are a type of bed too

[azure oak]

cahengeloges tomorrow

[lapis oak]

Already got changelogs yesterday

[azure oak]

we got 4 words yesterday

this truly is a calamity

this truly has been an arsenal

actually wait no i just remembered heavy laser rifle got renamed

[cinder hearth]

Wait a fucking minute

I recognize that "heavy laser rifle"

It's a fucking AC6 laser shotgun

And redshift moonlight

Too

[azure oak]

a lot of the arsenal stuff is inspired from AC6

[cinder hearth]

Well then, it'll be peak

[azure oak]

also i'm labelling everything that'll be in SSO

[lapis oak]

Majority are old names

We only really know all Gauss, Pulse and tier 1 newest names

[azure oak]

so auger, short circuit, pulse pistol, aqueous hunter drone, aerial tracker, vulcan, pulse grenade, nidhog, pulse sentinel, pulse hammer, akremite and tiamat?

[lapis oak]

Ye

[fathom girder]

correct

[azure oak]

i'll try and make it clearer than they're not the final names

[lapis oak]

Gauss mining, Tesla scientific, Pulse Draedon's preferences, Plasma zany experimental, and Laser militaristic

[azure oak]

holofiber immolator and scattershot skewer probably have their finalized names as well since they're in the changelogs

[buoyant pulsar]

orios is cooking

[lapis oak]

Those changelogs were before Tringle came up with new names being related to those factors

[azure oak]

what factors

oh right the patterns with each type of weapon

[lapis oak]

Ye

Anyways Scattershot and Immolator died

[high scaffold]

Thats actualy realy nice, cant wait for this being reposted 100 times

[azure oak]

whoops layered wrong

for some reason ranged gets to have a full arsenal

[buoyant pulsar]

im glad ??? isn't final

[azure oak]

just had to make sure

you know how calamity fans are

[buoyant pulsar]

lmao

do we even know what laser redshift moonlight is gonna be

like what kind of weapon, even

[lapis oak]

Armored Core

[mystic eagle]

It would cause naming issues otherwise as there already is something else with the name ??? in the mod

I would've liked it if the weapon was called ??? though

[azure oak]

google gives me this so i guess some laser mantis blade thing

[lapis oak]

Btw all Pulse names are finals

Remove the *

[azure oak]

whoops

[mystic eagle]

Ranger got the ultimate pulse weapon

[fringe quiver]

the 5 arsenal technologies...

plasma, laser, pulse, tesla, and

yellow

[buoyant pulsar]

gauss :3

[lean relic]

gaussing

[lapis oak]

People are going to be looking at Pulse Pistol then say

[fringe quiver]

its funnier to think of it as just yellow

💔

[lapis oak]

"Huh? It's magic?"

[azure oak]

piss

[buoyant pulsar]

remember: it's pronounced gowss, not gawss

[azure oak]

draedon kidnapped Carl Friedrich Gauss and shoved him into his weapons

[mystic eagle]

I'm surprised that Scatterscot Skewer may not be it's finalized name

It goes so hard

[buoyant pulsar]

truth

[lapis oak]

We need to kidnap Xyk so he spills out the rest of the names

[azure oak]

also trogle posted this a while back for what inspired auger

you should be allowed to use pulse sentinel as a mount tbh

[lapis oak]

Fat crab

[azure oak]

every single crawler should have a pet version in base cal

[mystic eagle]

Mecha Crabulon

[azure oak]

if i get a sapphire crawler pet i would never take it off

[high scaffold]

does sso mark means that rework comes in sso, and those without it come later?

[azure oak]

the sso mark means they're in changelogs for sso

the list could very much still grow

[buoyant pulsar]

i like the ruby one personally

the amber one might be the best tho it's just

🟡

🟠 maybe

[mystic eagle]

Scattershot Skewer and Holofiber Immolator did appear in #changelogs

[azure oak]

actually the amber orb will have the corpse next to it inside

[summer shore]

Laser glove better be some ironman bullshit

[mystic eagle]

So they might be final

[lapis oak]

Ye it was before the new naming scheme happened

[high scaffold]

amber ball

[mystic eagle]

Oh alr

[lapis oak]

Tringle said those died

[summer shore]

https://tenor.com/view/iron-man-superhero-marvel-gif-26117028

[buoyant pulsar]

i wish it was melee, melee needs more beat the shit out of them gauntlets

[summer shore]

There's a new naming scheme?

[lapis oak]

Ye

[summer shore]

Spill

[buoyant pulsar]

why is gauss just randomly named after mythical creatures

[lapis oak]

I just did

[lapis oak]

They're mining tools got repurposed into weapons

[summer shore]

This is not "just" stinkiri

[buoyant pulsar]

oh cool

where information from

[lapis oak]

Tringle

[buoyant pulsar]

guh

[lapis oak]

Screenshots jumpscare

[buoyant pulsar]

lightmode jumpscare

wdym scattershot skewer died... what does that mean

[azure oak]

just the name

[lapis oak]

Xyk give us the rest of the names!!!

[buoyant pulsar]

Smh

[buoyant pulsar]

mitt is

[lapis oak]

Energy types

[summer shore]

mittens are those oven gloves

[buoyant pulsar]

[buoyant pulsar]

?

[summer shore]

stinkiri

That's the tiers not energy types

[lapis oak]

? Oh you mean different ones

I didn't see it!

[buoyant pulsar]

is A auric

[summer shore]

Probably yea

[buoyant pulsar]

then wtf are the others

[summer shore]

plague, ruby, boulders, wulfrum

Guys pulse is the ares pulse cannon

[buoyant pulsar]

seu when are u gonna expand to the other planets

[boreal pewter]

At least tri didn't spoil tesla rogue weapon

[lean relic]

after 2 years

[boreal pewter]

also plasma grenade is die
new plasma rogue weapon will take its place (no not another kind of bomb)

[summer shore]

What about wave pounder

[lapis oak]

Rip sprite

[buoyant pulsar]

i love plasma grenades

[hardy gulch]

it shall be a shuriken

[summer shore]

Is it safe

Is it alright

[lapis oak]

Died

[boreal pewter]

wave pounder will continue to wave pound (kind of)
stealth strike should feel about the same

[burnt solstice]

noo plasma grenade is kill

[summer shore]

Oh thank god

[boreal pewter]

nuh uh, those are ranged weapons!

[hardy gulch]

rogue is absorbed into ranger

[burnt solstice]

it'll be yet another throwing scythe

[summer shore]

Auric arsenal rogue will be auric brick

[azure oak]

this sure is chartening

[lapis oak]

Still in the Doomsday Device waiting room for Rogue

[buoyant pulsar]

nah, absorb ranger into rogue

[buoyant pulsar]

make auric tesla bars throwable

there should be a mod that just makes all metal bars throwable

[azure oak]

very curious about what the pulse hammer is gonna be like

[buoyant pulsar]

here's my hopes for pulse hammer

the videos kinda suck at showing my point, but basically, i hope it's heavy and slow and has a lunge

look techy jackhammer things are awesome but tbh i hope its just a straight up pulse sledgehammer

i want to pound dog's stupid face in with it

[azure oak]

something like a charged swing to send out a projectile would be nice, but it also sounds really fun to directly beat the crap out of something with a hammer

[buoyant pulsar]

no projectiles >:(

:)

only 1,000,000 knockback charged swing

play golf with them

[lapis oak]

Fortnite Hammer

[buoyant pulsar]

???

i think u mean this

[azure oak]

pulse dragon is so weird

[lapis oak]

No back then when I was playing there was a jumpy hammer

[buoyant pulsar]

kill it

[buoyant pulsar]

ykw it looks pretty fun

it's giving tf2 physics engine

i take it back shockwave hammer is pretty funny

[viral merlin]

Hammer

Pulses

[buoyant pulsar]

god i love hammers

[viral merlin]

🧠

The only melee weapons I like are whips

[raw falcon]

I really really just want to chuck hammers at peoples faces

and I love that calamity lets me do that

but i need more

[buoyant pulsar]

if i could design pulse hammer, i would do smth like this

M1: tapping M1 throws a heavy swing of the hammer after a small start-up delay, slightly moving you in the direction of the swing. the 3rd swing of this combo would be narrower but longer range and slightly more damage. this faster swing could be done every 0.8 seconds. holding down M1 charges up for 1.75 seconds, and releasing after performs a larger and stronger swing with a boosted lunge (this attack has minor screenshake?)

M2: charge up for like 0.5 seconds, then lunge forward spinning with the hammer. adds onto your current speed and it's omnidirectional, so it works with dashes n stuff. bounces you upward when hitting an enemy (also gives a small amount of i-frames), and makes you ricochet off of surfaces.

"speed cap? nah, they can't go that fast surely"

the comedic ultradash/8c multiboost:

[buoyant pulsar]

someday

someday i will make my own 3d platformer speed game

i already have a draft for one, it's called Jumpstart

the main mechanic of the game is the jetboost, which is just. you hold the button, and you start accelerating forward. with like no cap.

you can't turn very well while using it and it gets diminishing returns, but it's going to be dumb fast

[azure oak]

how spoilerous

[buoyant pulsar]

uh huh

go read the thing i pinged u at >:(

[fathom girder]

Not spoilerous

[amber furnace]

whats the armor progression going to be like in the future

[azure oak]

well here's the known armor changes

[lapis oak]

there're gonna be so much more new armor themes it's genuinely exciting

[azure oak]

armor progression being different for each class? unbelievable

[summer shore]

Auric being the one remaining 5 helmet set is funny

[amber furnace]

thats all I wanted to know, thank you

[amber furnace]

exactly

[azure oak]

np

also just saying but most of these will not be next update

[lapis oak]

also isn't Victide gonna be 3 🤔

why only 2 helmets there

[azure oak]

whoops

[lapis oak]

do we know which 2 of the 5 will be turned into vanities

[azure oak]

no afaik

[lapis oak]

aight

[azure oak]

i am the chart man

my charts are informative

[inner thunder]

make all bosses not immune to confusion

[azure oak]

fixed

[azure oak]

wrong channel for suggestions but that wouldn't get through either way

[amber furnace]

cant wait for the unique armour sets
mainly the polterghast melee set
but the other ones too like dragon hunter, craig, abyss, blood moon

[analog helm]

cant wait to wear the glorious shrimp armour so i can be the real krill

[amber furnace]

shrimply krill issue

[analog helm]

it's not as shrimple as it seems

[azure oak]

trading with crabs for shrimply the greatest melee armor

[lapis oak]

Giant Clam should drop 500 pearls so they can make the Crab trade gambling as realistic as possible

1% chance for good items trade

[amber furnace]

oh yeah
final tier exo armour looks really sick too

[azure oak]

exo armor doesnt have tiers

exo armor is the final tier

you upgrade arsenal armor from tier 1, to tier 2, to tier 3, to exo

exo armor has different "modes", first is base exo armor, second is overheat (off and on) and last is tank

[amber furnace]

I see

[azure oak]

arsenal armor's "gimmick" is that you can customize the stats and abilities

[amber furnace]

cant wait for cal val to add each tier as vanity items too

[amber furnace]

I like the overheating one

[azure oak]

it's a glass cannon mode basically

btw how much do you know about SSO

[cold bluff]

aerospec and exo armor look fire

[amber furnace]

whats that

[azure oak]

next update

the sunken sea overhaul

[amber furnace]

I know nothing

I know nothing from after 2022

[azure oak]

SSO is redoing the sunken sea from the ground up to have more content and be more relevant in the mod

we already know a good amount about the sub-biomes and critters / enemies in them

[amber furnace]

thats awesome
will it have content to only pre hm and early hm (like we have rn) or will it get reworked too

[azure oak]

it'll have content from pre-boss to around plantera

[amber furnace]

exciting

[azure oak]

amidias is also getting reworked into a quest-giver

[amber furnace]

and what will be the quests/rewards from it

[azure oak]

we don't really know much about the quests or their rewards

but probably some of the rewards will be the items he currently sells because he will no longer have a shop

also there's gonna be an ungodly amount of reworks next update

[lapis oak]

1/7th of the weapon counts will be reworked

[dull heart]

I could get that to 2/7ths

[lapis oak]

great to hear

[stuck kite]

i could get that to uhm. uhhhh

5/13ths

[lapis oak]

😨 ???

[still bluff]

I could get that to 4

[dull heart]

wanna see the aftermath of a bug

[azure oak]

yes

[misty wren]

yes

[lapis oak]

yes

[valid crypt]

Yes

[fathom girder]

Absolutely

[dull heart]

this happened

I will not elaborate

[slate folio]

🔵

[azure oak]

your image quality got destroyed?

[lapis oak]

is this Crescent Moon

wait no

Gladius perhaps

[fathom girder]

THE MOON

[azure oak]

stratus sphere, is circle

[lapis oak]

😨

[azure oak]

while it'd be nice if a lot of the existing item groups got a similar treatment to aerialite with it overall being made more interesting, it's also nice to have modernized versions of older items

[lapis oak]

doze is not waiting for new art concepts

[fathom girder]

Scoria ore now spawns in the underworld and you have to kill providence(she got tier swapped with brimstone elemental) to unlock it

[azure oak]

yeah i said it's nice to have modernized versions of the old items since concepting n' stuff can take a bit

[lapis oak]

🥹

[azure oak]

like aerospec losing tradewinds but getting tailwind tessen and melody of paradise

is neat

but ideas hard

[dull heart]

Honestly

I don't think any of the Stratus ideas at their core would change

it would just be updated sprites

[lapis oak]

could make them not like commonly used type of weapons

[dull heart]

are any of them that commonly used

like genuinely

[cinder hearth]

Not anymore I don't think so

[lapis oak]

I mean like sword, spear and staff etc

[dull heart]

they have no spear

[azure oak]

clamor noctus is a staff and night's gaze is a javelin

[dull heart]

and the sword is a shortsword

[lapis oak]

looks like one

[dull heart]

it looks like what it is, a javelin

also javelins aren't really that common either

[lapis oak]

Javelin isn't common?

[azure oak]

counted 19 rogue weapons considered javelins

[dull heart]

there's a good amount but half of them are never touched

Spear of paleolith, crystal piercer, palladium javelin, wave skipper, scourge of the seas, frequency manipulator

Phantasmal Ruin

I can't think of the last time I saw someone use those

[lapis oak]

Spear of Paleolith so ass 💔

unsatisfactory

[azure oak]

i used scourge of the seas and phantasmal ruin last time i tried playing rogue

[dull heart]

huh

[lapis oak]

Polterghast drops should be looking more zany than Stratus for sure

[azure oak]

scourge of the seas can work surprisingly well on destroyer

[dull heart]

anyway Javelins are like

less common than bombs, boomerangs, and daggers (especially daggers)

of all the rogue class "weapon types" they're the least abundant now that spiky balls were murder

[azure oak]

there's still clamor noctus

[lapis oak]

god the 2 Arsenal bombs back to back

[cinder hearth]

Rogues are getting neutered (took their balls)

[dull heart]

judging mage weapons as "staff" is a bit silly

staff has nothing to do with clamor Noctus functionality

[misty wren]

they were spiky this is good for their overall health

[dull heart]

so you could swap the sprite to something else and it would still work the same

In terms of actual meteor staff style items there's like

Clamor Noctus line and Meteor Staff

is there anything else

[misty wren]

lunar flare

[dull heart]

lunar flare yea

[misty wren]

and asteroid staff and vesuvius

[dull heart]

Asteroid is dead

[azure oak]

astral staff

[dull heart]

Vesuvius deserves to die

[misty wren]

my goat is washed...

[dull heart]

But yeah Vesuvius and Astral staff too oop

[azure oak]

and deathhail

[dull heart]

Deathhail is likely being reworked

[azure oak]

and phoenix flame barrage

[lapis oak]

kill Sky Glaze and Wyvern's Call

kill them

[misty wren]

if you wanna be pedantic burning sky

[dull heart]

Specifically for mage

Melee has a couple

[cinder hearth]

How do we count star shower

[twin shoal]

If sky glaze was made to be post-Skeletron and got homing it could actually be very useful

[dull heart]

but yeah, there's 5 magic asteroid staff weapons besides the Clamor Noctus line

[misty wren]

its cheese incarnate which i would classify as different

[dull heart]

clamor will also be by far the most interesting of them

[twin shoal]

Though actually it’s just infernum slime god that’s hard to hit with mage, vanilla calamity SG is much easier to hit

[cinder hearth]

Cheese?

[misty wren]

it has. no range limit

[dull heart]

6 if you count star shower (I have never seen this item before)

[cinder hearth]

Bruuuuuh

[lapis oak]

I mainly was talking about the sprites be looking more different than the common silhouettes

[dull heart]

ah

Yeah that's entirely just spritework stuff

[lapis oak]

ye

[stone fiber]

Can I ask why gatlingnum is getting killed?

[misty wren]

i have abused this to great effect in multiplayer with boss spectate

[lapis oak]

idk it's just not very interesting

that's how it usually goes

and if they don't have new ideas for it then it usually just gone instead of being reworked

[spark kiln]

did you ever use it?

[stone fiber]

Also I don't quite understand what some things here mean
Namely 431, 523 and 526

[spark kiln]

that thing was a crafting material nothing more

[lapis oak]

new block replacing stone in jungle, donor item and painting

[analog helm]

fruits my beloved..

[stone fiber]

wth is this 👁️👄👁️

[lapis oak]

was gonna be post ML crimson enemy

now most likely scrapped

[azure oak]

the every-not-reworks

[dull heart]

wait

Did the changelogs not list the elemental weapons as being resprited

Vanishing point, nucleosynthesis, and rebounding rainbow

[azure oak]

nope

[dull heart]

insane

[lapis oak]

oh the new sprites are implemented already?

cool

[azure oak]

so still not for augur and pouch?

[dull heart]

augur probably is also resprited

Idk about pouch

[lapis oak]

Pouch isn't really related

[dull heart]

I'm like 95% sure every elemental weapon was resprited at the same time

[halcyon seal]

Not having the base cores feels weird tbh

But I get it

[hoary heron]

best late hm true melee weapon??

The yharim flies? I sure hope he does!

That would be epic

[azure oak]

more block variety & furniture sets (like with wulfrum blocks & driftwood) is always nice

[white aurora]

kromeow

wawa

[azure oak]

god knows why auric and exo-auric blocks look so scuffed but at least it's unique so i appreciate it

[white aurora]

wdym scuffed

don't they look fine

i haven't play cal in a while so idr what they actually look like

[azure oak]

the inwards angle and being able to see the top

[fathom girder]

What's wrong with it

[lapis oak]

being able to the the top is not new

[white aurora]

ok that is kinda weird

[azure oak]

it looks kinda odd when placed down and surrounded by normal terraria blocks

[lapis oak]

Navystone and Brimstone Slag have it

as well as, many others

[azure oak]

might be the combination of the top being visible and the sides angling inwards

[lapis oak]

HPU style

[azure oak]

like a reverse perspective

though i'm not saying it's bad, just kinda odd

[lapis oak]

the ultimate Calamity style going crazy with this one

[azure oak]

also helps set it apart from other blocks

[stone fiber]

Sorry I had to make this joke

[azure oak]

very variety of wulfrum blocks is nice

also wulfrum & driftwood furniture

[mystic eagle]

your*

[hushed hazel]

what about my happy

[azure oak]

when the wulfrum stuff comes out i am 100% making john wulfrum's shack in my world

[hoary heron]

mrowwww

we're cats now twin

lets hunt mice and other small creatures twin

but dogs might come after us

that could be bad

[hoary heron]

ALSO WHAT

WHAT IS THIS FROM

[azure oak]

from calart server

[dull heart]

Will be in Calamity 2.1

[white aurora]

HUNT them WILDly :3

[fathom girder]

(If it ever releases)

[hoary heron]

what if i combne calamity 1.0 with calamity 0.9

could that work

[hushed hazel]

is the driftwood clock a sundial

[lapis oak]

looks like it

[azure oak]

incredible

[hushed hazel]

that's kinda silly

cal needs more silly content this is good

[lapis oak]

also Wulfrum Clock being placeable on walls instead of tiles is very interesting

[cunning sequoia]

cool detail

[azure oak]

you could go into a pitch black room, touch a sundail and say "it's 11pm", this truly is a calamity update sunken sea overhaul

[lapis oak]

the sundial never lies

[vivid hemlock]

placeholder sprite

[azure oak]

thought so, currently the sprite is a bit rough

[lapis oak]

ye it's a placeholder, the previous one to that was an edit

Gram wasn't too happy about that

[azure oak]

wulfrum blocks are gonna be so good for lab builds

[stone fiber]

Lab blocks: (/j)

[silk terrace]

Waos

[fathom girder]

Big fan of the driftwood blocks

[azure oak]

the driftwood furniture is so crooked

i love it

[fathom girder]

It makes sense in my mind

[still cobalt]

Idk what skytide dragon is but it looks cool

[lapis oak]

Storm Weaver's melee spear

replacing Storm Dragoon

[azure oak]

replaces storm dragoon

[glass cosmos]

everything here is going to be in 2.1?

[azure oak]

ye

[glass cosmos]

damn

[fathom girder]

It's why this is taking so long :D

Well partially

They're doing a shitton for SSO

[azure oak]

maybe even too much

[fathom girder]

They passed that point months ago

[azure oak]

true

[lapis oak]

longest it has ever been

[fathom girder]

I ask the update, "why the long face"

I explode

[azure oak]

25 days

[plush carbon]

way, way too much

[glass cosmos]

and thats just "vanity" stuff

and its still a lot

[azure oak]

hopefully SSO part 2 doesnt take another year then

[plush carbon]

ehhhh

[azure oak]

(it'll probably not take another year)

[plush carbon]

i can't be optimistic until the update actually releases

[hoary heron]

ok dude

genuinely

what's going on

why does clopsy despawn

[plush carbon]

wrong channel to ask stuff

i'm just gonna say boss checklist and move on

[amber furnace]

is spore knife rogue

[azure oak]

yes

[lapis oak]

the return

[rich ginkgo]

no its ranger

sorry

[azure oak]

this will truly be a calamity 2

[amber furnace]

I legit forgot rogue existed until I typed out that message

[rich ginkgo]

the day yuh adds desert scourge kite to cal vanities is the true calamity day

[dusty tinsel]

Calamity 6

[azure oak]

even after just a couple big updates pre-hardmode calamity is gonna be completely unrecognizable

[rich ginkgo]

more like 2

lol

sso is gonna change like

everything

[amber furnace]

as in what, new content?

[rich ginkgo]

on its own

[azure oak]

not everything enough

[rich ginkgo]

mehhh

[azure oak]

still gonna change most of it though

[azure oak]

new & reworked content

[halcyon seal]

And rebalancing/reworking of old content

[azure oak]

bosses are allowed to be unique now

[halcyon seal]

I am not ready for the timeline where Gilded Proboscis is one of the best weapons for Providence

[rich ginkgo]

yeah that’s fun

[azure oak]

gecko scourge my beloved

[rich ginkgo]

they’re going at exo mechs next soon

[azure oak]

probably not soon

[rich ginkgo]

after sso

ok yeah not soon

[azure oak]

exo mechs is one of the penultimate bosses

[halcyon seal]

Maybe we’ll have Arsenal weapons by 2083 if we’re lucky

[lapis oak]

Mechs? no not soon

other bosses will come before Mechs

[halcyon seal]

Actually, is t2 evil shift the update after sso or some other update down the line

[amber furnace]

ah I see, I cant wait to use reworked true melee weapons

[lapis oak]

Mechs fight is one of the final they want to improve their boss design skills before doing them

[azure oak]

a good amount of them are already next update

[azure oak]

you're gonna love reworked hellkite

[rich ginkgo]

isnt evil shift p2

[azure oak]

#spoilers message

[amber furnace]

what does it do

[lapis oak]

no

[amber furnace]

oh my goodness gracious

[lean relic]

kiri what does that mean

[lapis oak]

what

?

[halcyon seal]

God I love swords with this type of hit sound

[hoary heron]

OK

OK CHAT

I SOLVED THE ISSUE

I FOUND THE MOD

THAT WAS CAUSING THE DESPAWN

[azure oak]

you're still in the wrong channel

[hoary heron]

right

mb

[azure oak]

is ok

[hoary heron]

meowwwww

[dull heart]

you're gonna be eating well

[lapis oak]

so many

[pseudo vector]

when we get around to reworking exos that'd be its own dedicated update focussed around those specifically

[frail cove]

The radical robotics update

[lean relic]

EMO

[summer shore]

draedon update 2.0

call it update 2.5

[cunning sequoia]

dust and rust

[azure oak]

actuators & alloys

[summer shore]

update draedon

[azure oak]

the

[summer shore]

draedon update update

[lapis oak]

Draedon overhaul

[hushed hazel]

i was trying to think of what the opposite of "rust and dust" would be but i can't think of an antonym for dust that rhymes with shine

[dull heart]

I'm almost done with the full set

[brave star]

Stratusphere

[dull heart]

I need to touch up Crescent Moon and Halley's Inferno

and do the entirety of Clamor Noctus

[brave star]

Fine and shine

Or shine and fine

[summer rapids]

Is the placement of Astral armor going to be changed, it feels obselete post moon lord

So you only use it for ML

[dull heart]

it's not

It's not obsoleted

[summer rapids]

You basically use it for ML then change to Lunar

[dull heart]

it's only obsoleted if you forget the fact that minions are free damage for literally every class except summonee

And astral adds 3 minion slots

It outperforms most lunar sets with that in mond

[summer rapids]

Valid

[dull heart]

Heck, it outperforms Vortex armor on its own without minions

unless you use stealth

[hard copper]

"Launches a singularity which influences creatures in a large area around it"?

[azure oak]

black hole weapon, cool

[dull heart]

I'm very happy with how Stratus Sphere is turning out now

[frigid mulch]

very astute

[dull heart]

I had to completely redo what it was doing though

very worth it

[frigid mulch]

badass weapon?

[summer rapids]

Does it remove the minion debuff while holding a non summon weapon?

Like forbidden

[dull heart]

No

[summer rapids]

Than shit

[dull heart]

But classless weapons don't have that to begin with

So

it doesn't have it anyway

it doesn't remove it for anything else though

[dull heart]

you literally don't even know what it actually does

[summer rapids]

There's like 2 classless weapons

[summer rapids]

It reduces damage if you are using a melee or other class weapon

[dull heart]

nope!

wait

That's not what I'm talking about

[summer rapids]

Oh

[dull heart]

maybe I'm just confused

[hard copper]

It just reduces the summons damage by 25%

[summer rapids]

Which is a lot

[dull heart]

I was meaning you don't know what Stratus Sphere does

[hard copper]

Its still free damage though

[summer rapids]

Oh I wasn't talking ABT that mb

[dull heart]

yeah I realized

Holding Stratus Sphere doesn't provide summon penalty because it's classless

[summer rapids]

Oh that's cool

I wonder if it'll be busted overpowered like nuclear fury

Vortex type weapons tend to be

[dull heart]

there's a couple of the Stratus items that might be broken

Stratus Sphere will likely be very good but not for the reasons you expect

[summer rapids]

Homing weapons will generally be broken if they are not balanced

[dull heart]

who said it homes

[summer rapids]

Just sayin

Idk if it does

Stratus sphere looks nice

[fathom girder]

Utility weapons 😋

[dull heart]

My new stratus sphere idea actually makes it so that it enhances instead of games the Stratus set mechanic

The old idea I had was literally just old Stratus Sphere but it interacted with the set mechanic

Issue is it interacted on hit and made it super duper broken on easy to hit enemies and ESPECIALLY dog

[hard copper]

Sounds really good for old duke if it can stop the tooth balls and sharkrons

[summer rapids]

Old Duke 🥲

[dull heart]

a hint on stratus sphere

"creatures" also includes players there

[summer rapids]

Wait I heard old Duke is being removed

[azure oak]

do you just orbit the singularity or smth

[hard copper]

A funny death message would be "player has been spaghettified"

[hushed hazel]

more of a ship of theseus typa deal to my knowledge

[summer rapids]

What's that

[hard copper]

Yeah, new name, new sprite, etc

[dull heart]

It doesn't have any gravitational interactions

Anyway so far

Stratus Sphere and Galileo Gladius seem like the most likely contenders to absolutely be broken

just from a mechanical standpoint

I definitely at first accidentally made it possible to have literally infinite iframes with Galileo Gladius

but I fixed that

[halcyon seal]

Launches a singularity which influences (????) in a large area around it

[dull heart]

^

[halcyon seal]

Oh

Didn’t notice someone already did

Launching this towards a derpling’s general direction to start a new space program

[keen zodiac]

all i can see is draedon head poking out of the tank

[azure oak]

gimme a sec

[dull heart]

it doesn't have any gravitational interactions

would be too much of a headache to deal with the edge cases to even consider

[dense sundial]

Things are unbalanced if they don’t get balanced, yes

Weird statement

[azure oak]

gfb exo mechs phase 2

[lean relic]

dr robodon

[hard hearth]

santa nk 9000

[dense sundial]

🚬

I probably could have phrased that better but really

[summer rapids]

I mean in particular, those weapons, and they often aren't balanced

[hard hearth]

homing weapons usually arent balanced in the fact that they're usually weaker than they should be..........

[dull heart]

I don't think homing weapons are super strong any more often than anything else

[hard hearth]

at least calam weapons, idk about other mods'

[summer rapids]

I mean they do similar damage and you don't need to aim

[hard hearth]

they dont do similar damage doe

[summer rapids]

Trivializes most bosses' difficulty

[hard hearth]

again, usually

[summer rapids]

Hold M1, win fight

Nuclear Fury melts and you just turn brain off

[dense sundial]

The balance of the homing itself is often a problem with homing attacks

[hard hearth]

they tend to do lower damage compared to 100% uptime aim-required weapons

[dull heart]

nuclear fury is just an exception of being insane

[dense sundial]

Let homing be too aggressive and you don’t have to think while using the weapon

[hard hearth]

ehh i dont think so

[dense sundial]

See Chlorophyte Bullets and most of Calamity summoner

[summer rapids]

It's so insane the wiki recommends it for half the post moonlord fights

[halcyon seal]

I think most homing weapons are fine where they are now tbh

[hard hearth]

summon is busted not bc of the homing but because of its damage

[summer rapids]

Despite it being craftable as soon as you beat ML

[dull heart]

Not having to think is fine as long as it the exception

not the rule

[halcyon seal]

Like chloro bullets make you lose out on a ton of value

[dull heart]

Chloro bullets are fantastic

[halcyon seal]

But it makes stuff like Chain Gun actually usable

[dull heart]

Great balancing

[halcyon seal]

I think they’re in a good spot

[dense sundial]

And as long as it’s weaker by default than options that require thinking

[dull heart]

oh of course

[halcyon seal]

You’re trading ease of use for other effects like ichor

[hard hearth]

chloro bullets means you arent using hyperius bu- wait that got reworked, terra bullets

[halcyon seal]

Still hyperius rn I’m pretty sure

[dull heart]

dryads tear smh

[hard hearth]

which is to say, huge dps loss

as it should be

[cobalt wharf]

um

[hard hearth]

ironically chain gun with non homing bullets ends up being better than chloro in most situations as long as the boss isnt like, cultist

[cobalt wharf]

thinking about it for 20 seconds no

[lean relic]

ammo at the later part

[cobalt wharf]

cal just has very power inflated and fast ammos i think

[dull heart]

oh yeah

In vanilla context chloro is horrible

[hard hearth]

i dont get it

in vanilla chloro is better than in calam

[dull heart]

I meant horrible from a balancing perspective

[hard hearth]

because the dps alternatives are just crystal bullets or ichor bullets

[dull heart]

not like bad power

[hard hearth]

ohhh

gotcha gotcha

yea

i agree

[halcyon seal]

And one of those is exclusive to one type of world

And the alternative is, I mean cursed bullets are fine but nothing amazing

[hard hearth]

the only type iirc tbh imo ngl

[dull heart]

Party Bullets peak bullet

[halcyon seal]

Party bullets being pre hm is very goofy

Actually out of curiosity, are there any cal weapons that won’t have the potential to be reworked? Like you’re 100% happy with them as is and wouldn’t really change anything about them

[dull heart]

I bet marksman bow

would never get approved by donor to change

[fathom girder]

Bruh

Worst bow in the mod

Sorry whoever that donor is

[dull heart]

That's literally the point of it iirc

[fathom girder]

Is it actually

Lmao

[dull heart]

It's literally meant to be a bad item

[fathom girder]

Okay no peak donor item then

Cringe for the sake of being cringe

[dull heart]

It depends on the sale of what you count a rework as thh

Like

[fathom girder]

Dude had the chance to do something cool but nah

[dull heart]

I don't see the Wulfrum items getting major changes

but minor ones yeah

[inner thunder]

don't rework kelvin catalyst

[dull heart]

I think post-sso there will be many more items in a 'final' state

Most of the reworks from it will be their final major change I'd imagine

[inner thunder]

why don't you guys add achievements

[dull heart]

Tmodloader doesn't support them

[azure oak]

tmod doesnt support it

[dull heart]

And we're not making a janky custom support for it

Once Tmod supports it natively we'll do it

[inner thunder]

infernum has achrivements

[dull heart]

Which is why I said this

[urban cloak]

cause infernum makes its own system for them

[inner thunder]

damn

[hard hearth]

infernum added its own janky custom support

[lapis oak]

it's here 😨

I'm scared

[iron dew]

tModloader does not natively have achievement support that modders can easily use

there's been a PR floating around since january though that adds achievement support to TML but it's been seemingly abandoned(?) and nothing has happened since march

i would love to use achievements myself but unless theres a big push for it im not sure if the PR will get finished

[dull heart]

Boo

[hushed hazel]

jesus fucking christ dude at least add a jumpscare warning next time

fucking hell

[halcyon seal]

Had a heart attack and died from this message. Hope you’re happy

[azure oak]

Ares.gif

[frail cove]

Hello ares

[iron dew]

how is this relevant to this channel i do not get it

[spark kiln]

yea it’s not

i get u like looking at ares but u can do that on ur own u don’t need to send the sprite every time u want to look at it

[frail cove]

👀 cool spider astrum aureus?

[wicked pewter]

somehow cooler than normal aureus

[main pivot]

https://tenor.com/view/sleep-phonk-phonk-to-sleep-to-gif-2620625697095095305

[vivid hemlock]

horrific

[frail cove]

This may sound weird, but I hope that aureus feels “heavy” in its rework. Its theme is one of the most aggressive themes in the game, so I think it would fit.

[lapis oak]

he's a stomper so...

[thorny glacier]

old duke phonk music video teaser

[halcyon seal]

Awesome fuckin spider robot thing

[cunning sequoia]

my boy

he's gonna be so fucking cool

[brave star]

What if six legs aureus

Become a CRAB

🦀

[cunning sequoia]

no

[fathom girder]

18 leg aureus

Draedon wanted a semi truck but still needed it to have legs and not wheels

[cunning sequoia]

centipede aureus

more worm bosses

[azure oak]

arsenal

[lapis oak]

best ending

[vestal osprey]

Yharim reveals he was a worm the entire time, and says "its time to end this calamity"

[real axle]

Love that part where Calamatis said "It's Calamity time," and she calamited all over the place.

[hard copper]

🔥 🪶

[urban cloak]

i gotta work on this again soon

forgot about my baby

[azure oak]

this truly is a calamity

[vestal osprey]

Terrarian, I remember you're calamitys

[ember field]

I joined the sequel to TC which was kind of a mess

[ocean jetty]

is that fry

holy crap

[ember field]

I remember that the sequel was being worked on like

Mid-official cal lore rewrite LMAO

[ocean jetty]

im such a big fan sign my forehead

[ember field]

So it was a mess

[dense prawn]

thats a big worm

[hexed basalt]

this is astrum deus in 2.1

get excited

[ocean jetty]

LETS GO!!!!!!!!!

[viral merlin]

Yharim worm boss phase

[hard copper]

I miss AA

Time to go back to 1.3 tmod to play it again

CD cooked with its soundtrack

[boreal edge]

Triangle has sent every name before

[cunning sequoia]

peak infernum gameplay

[azure oak]

neat

[real axle]

Truly the infected deity

[spark kiln]

this is what infernum dog looks like to fabsol

[dull heart]

This is what infernum dog looks like if it was peak

[amber furnace]

they removed him?

[azure oak]

double checking and i'm struggling to find mentions of some of these names from triangle

[mystic eagle]

Phalanx Surge...

May Scattershot Skewer rest in peace

[lapis oak]

holy shit new spoiler

how is the word "gemini" militaristic related? 🤔

is it because of either Operation Gemini or Project Gemini?

[azure oak]

apparently "decimating" was also a punishment for mutinous roman legions where 1 in ever 10 people was killed (also why it has "deci" in it i guess)

[lapis oak]

also funny how Xyk redacted those and then later on CIT just threw everything out

[cinder hearth]

Why does it have to be militaristic related? Is it like, a naming convention of the new items?

[lapis oak]

yes Laser's names are militaristic

[vivid hemlock]

.

[azure oak]

i'm kinda hesitant to update the chart with them because i can't actually find instances where triangle revealed some of these names

[lapis oak]

CIT leaked

[vivid hemlock]

kiri banned for posting a gif

[lapis oak]

wtf...

[azure oak]

might just not have been thorough enough but it doesnt hurt to make sure

[vivid hemlock]

im pretty sure it wasnt posted here

[lapis oak]

ye no

generational leak moment

[vivid hemlock]

probably in a pseudo-public server like nohitcord

[azure oak]

whoops

[vivid hemlock]

its generational to you because you have dementia

[azure oak]

anyways

[lapis oak]

😭 ???

[sterile moss]

Weapon named finger:

[lapis oak]

so apparently all Laser weapons will be in SSO from the look of it

if Trench Sonar is prioritized

and uh, except tier 5

[valid crypt]

???

[lapis oak]

wat

[valid crypt]

Nvm brain fart forgot a t5 exo weapon set existed

[lapis oak]

💢

[boreal edge]

It was posted elsewhere

[lapis oak]

in dev server

[frail cove]

what on earth is this

[boreal edge]

Putting you on a stretcher (Stretches your body)

[lapis oak]

wtf 😭

[valid crypt]

Kiriwhite just getting attacked by fucking everyone

Deservedly tho

[vivid hemlock]

[fringe quiver]

based on the name i assume the last tier arsenal summon will be like a fuckn hydra

[frail cove]

what is invoked stargod? is it an addon or something?

[lapis oak]

Gilded Proboscis and Generator are still missing in the doc

[vivid hemlock]

😊

[valid crypt]

Doze making it an addon for shits and giggles
Originally from a dead addon that never got completed i think

[lapis oak]

and Calamity rod reworks

[vivid hemlock]

give me like

3 months

[lapis oak]

💢 💢 💢

[frail cove]

interesting, ill absolutely play it when it comes out

[dull heart]

I need to get those finished and merged so they can show up in changelogs

[lyric trellis]

Your dms

[buoyant pulsar]

ykw fuck it, just change all bows to be charged up and fired on release

[dull heart]

No

[frail cove]

remove ranger class

every weapon is now summoner

[dull heart]

no

[fringe quiver]

remove damage

terraria no longer has any combat

exclusively a building game now

[bold rivet]

remove terraria

go and play celeste

[dusty tinsel]

Instead of damage you must heal people to death

[still cobalt]

Thanks

[frail cove]

youre welcome

[valid crypt]

I suggest oneshot as well

[frail cove]

i suggest OFF

[soft plover]

I suggest in stars and time i guess

[white aurora]

i suggest rain world

:3

[fathom girder]

I suggest

destiny 2

[buoyant pulsar]

launches a singularity which influences creatures(?) in a large aura around it

[viral merlin]

Warframe*

Celeste is for wusses

[soft plover]

Games are for wusses, what about going outside

[fathom girder]

NO.

I am NOT going outside there's BUGS out there

[viral merlin]

You can't legally beat people up outside

[soft plover]

Youll eat the bark and dirt and youll like it!

[fathom girder]

I will swallow a tree if left unattended

[soft plover]

It’s not illegal if there’s no police around

And if there is… get busy

[frigid mulch]

More like warfarm tbh

[viral merlin]

He doesn't know

[graceful ivy]

Do not redeem

After doing desert perpetual agraios challenge i do not recommend that game to anyone

[dense sundial]

calamity doesn't ((shouldn't)) have the precedence to make that big of a functional vanilla change

[fathom girder]

LMAO

[dense sundial]

at least in the sense of straight up reworks

[graceful ivy]

D2s problem is that if u dont get the dlc when its on sale for like 80% off its insanely expensive to get into

and rn only the new content from the latest dlc matters

[fathom girder]

all raids are farmable

like all of em

rn

[graceful ivy]

They dont drop higher tier loot like tier 3s iirc

[fathom girder]

That's based on LL

[dense sundial]

a universal drawing mechanic is a good thing to have for bows, but games with bows usually set that expectation for all bows or don't. terraria doesn't

[fathom girder]

but the new gear is what has the sets and such rn yeah

[graceful ivy]

Games like fine

[terse dew]

destiny 2 talk 😭 😭 😭

[graceful ivy]

I really like the new raid but its not a game i recommend to ppl who wanna try it

I will move this to #general-talk talk doe

[terse dew]

what if destiny 2 was a good game

😢

[cobalt wharf]

vanilla reworks are fine if config locked imo

[fathom girder]

It's kind of

a good game

kind of

:D

[graceful ivy]

Depends

It can be good

If you do all the content but if ur a casual fan i wouldnt bother

I cannot understand ppl who dont raid or do dungeons in the game because thats like the peak of the game

[viral merlin]

Good Destiny 2 is literally Warframe

AND it came out before Destiny 2

[viral merlin]

Yeah and has a chance to be deleted even after purchase

Because they are known for removing content lol

[fathom girder]

Warframe is um

Another game i have spent too much time on
