honestly if calmaity can make the bosses in FTW and GFB less bs and spamming attacks i would love it

lapis oak
#

why

molten grove

there are some nerfs next update i think

hard hearth
#

everything should get nerfed

what's that even mean

and that they’re chaotic

lapis oak
#

haha

#

why would I

rich ginkgo
#

idk it’s probably funny

lapis oak
#

ye it's pretty fun I know

if you were to add like 300 qol mods you could probably get something out of it

wait infernum is being left behind in 1.4.4??

#

such a shame

placid wadi
dull heart
#

glad they finally made a public announcement like that

#

infernum is already in a tough spot for calamity 2.1 if 2.1 releases before 1.4.5

#

due especially to desert scourge changes

dusk bronze
#

when 2.1 releases before 1.4.5*

dull heart
#

when 1.4.7 releases before 2.1

rich ginkgo
#

im gonna lose my mind if tmodloader takes another half a year to update to 1.4.5

#

i want the new vanilla content but like i dont wanna play vanilla so like i need my mods

#

u feel me

earnest jewel
#

Someone's addicted to mods.

rich ginkgo
#

yeah i just said that

arctic cliff
#

simply because i knew bosses simply were going to change so much

#

and also new world generation

placid wadi
#

or we will be here for even longer wait

cinder hearth
dull heart
#

what's wild is

main estuary
#

well
that's one mod im gonna miss out on

dull heart
#

Catalyst is kinda a little dead in the waters, infernum has planned end of life, WotG is splitting from calamity

main estuary
#

since im too mediocre for exdeath

dull heart
#

1.4.5 isn't going to have many major cal addons

tropic jolt
#

I guess we'll just have to make our own calamities

dull heart
#

Invoked Stargod carry

azure oak
#

new calamity addon: Cataracts

cinder hearth
# main estuary well that's one mod im gonna miss out on

Personal recommendation: try it now, you probably still have enough time

Is it hard? Some bosses are

But it's also REALLY good

Yes, you can try it even afterwards but that means the sunken sea would be a lot worse most likely

#

It's a mod all about learning

#

Do not be afraid to struggle

main estuary
#

i did do the mod with cheats like last year

azure oak
#

i played infernum but mostly because it was a type of difficulty i enjoy more than what calamity has been doing

#

ai changes rather than just making stats bigger

#

it also reinvented some bosses and made them more interesting than base cal

fringe quiver
#

I definitely think Infernum bosses are just mechanically objectively more interesting htan most cal bosses currently

#

But i the boss design itself is something i've seen critique on

#

I haven't played it myself because im not one for glupshitto difficulties so

azure oak
#

but since calamity's custom difficulties are changing to focus more on difficulty through ai (and being fair) and the bosses are being reinvented, i won't really need infernum anymore

fringe quiver
#

Can't give much of a opinion

azure oak
#

endgame was a bit too dash heavy

placid wadi
azure oak
#

i'm generally excited to see calamity moving in a more hard-but-fair direction because some of the bosses have generally been kinda miserable after bountiful harvest

fringe quiver
#

truth duke !!!

fierce hearth
#

I think I skipped having a dash for SCal but yeah late game is very reliant on dashes

fringe quiver
#

it's wild to me how so many cal bosses have "bullet hells" and how said bullet hells are just

fierce hearth
#

I mean there are certain attacks that are so aggressive you can really only dash or teleport them (artemis and ares)

fringe quiver
#

projectiles randomly spawning in random directions

#

like you can make really cool stuff with a bullet hell type fight

placid wadi
#

than dashing tbh

fringe quiver
#

touhou and undertale/deltarune exist and their fights are great

#

but calamity bullet hells are ....

#

Yeah 😭

azure oak
#

never really liked calamitas' bullet hells

fringe quiver
#

Yeah it's just

#

THe entire appeal of bullet hells is learning a pattern

#

But calamity bullet hells uh
Fundamentally fail at that because there's no pattern

fierce hearth
fringe quiver
#

It's just. projectile spam

placid wadi
fierce hearth
#

DoG uses patterns 🤡

placid wadi
#

instead of ram dashing

cinder hearth
# fringe quiver *But* i the boss design itself is something i've seen critique on

Honestly MOST bosses are really well designed, but there's a few of the post ML ones with questionable designs which can leave people with a bad taste

Old duke (worst offender and worst designed boss in the game)

DOG (fun and satisfying but objectively not very well designed)

Yharon (too dragged out, most attacks aren't particularly interesting)

This trio is over reliant on dashes and most of their other attacks are not threatening or interesting, even if they can be fun to dodge

mystic eagle
#

Also not including Rav on that list is just, no

azure oak
#

skeletron & hive mind make me wanna rip my skin off

fierce hearth
#

I wish DoG wasn't just an endurance test that randomly asks you to make a laser precise action to avoid getting hit by the first bullet hell pattern because you were just moving at 100 mph and now have to make a 1 second complete stop in a very precise position

cinder hearth
#

And the only difference he has is it gets faster

#

It can be satisfying, yes

desert garnet
#

iirc its not random too

#

but

fierce hearth
#

You still need to get the precision shot while moving 100 mph

desert garnet
#

he will be changed

#

in this update

desert garnet
#

do you wear boots?

dull heart
cinder hearth
mystic eagle
#

Old Duke got like 4 attacks

dull heart
#

OD has like 4 or 5 attacks

cinder hearth
fierce hearth
#

Yes, I'm aware the hook instantly stops you, but if you hook into a bullet path there's a pretty high chance it'll hit you before you move out of the way

dull heart
#

oh infernum

cinder hearth
dull heart
#

yeah infernum old Duke idk

fierce hearth
#

And landing a hook not in the bullet path while moving that fast is not easy

tropic jolt
#

the boss that makes you old (duke)

dull heart
#

also how is dog objectively not well designed? I see people say that and while I agree it's not ideal I don't see how it's objective

fierce hearth
#

DoG has chafing points but I wouldn't put it anywhere near the bad design of other mod bosses like PBG and Ravager

cinder hearth
#

Is it satisfying? Yes

dull heart
#

I'm so excited for new 2.1 dog

cinder hearth
#

Is it fun? Yes

dull heart
#

I'd say he has 3

#

Dash, laser wall, portal chain dashes

tropic jolt
#

idk if id say its bad design personally but I think thats the idea?

cinder hearth
dull heart
#

I think the bad design behind infernum dog is that it's a fight both highly punishing and not really built up to mechanically at all

#

suddenly you're supposed to ram dash and make almost no mistakes

cinder hearth
dull heart
#

I agree that's a potential issue but also that's definitely not objective

fierce hearth
#

DoG treads a fine line in design that I think can be captured because Yharon has done so sort of, with the primary concern being "aggressive body slams will obliterate you, but are easier to avoid than the projectiles which will whittle you down to die to a body slam"

tropic jolt
dull heart
distant raft
dull heart
#

I think it has a good chance, but it's also only really having to compare to base current dog and infernum

cinder hearth
cinder hearth
placid wadi
#

that's the difference

tropic jolt
dull heart
#

Basecal master dog with the 1410 contact dmg head is so funny

placid wadi
distant raft
#

isnt ramming literally half of thana's 100% maximum no chill

fierce hearth
#

I do hope DoG rework eventually captures the thematic feel of the battle, where he's playing with us in phase 1, thinking the fight is just another fool getting uppity because they killed like 2 gods

placid wadi
#

because it alternates between following you or shooting plenty of lasers

fierce hearth
#

Yay

#

Yippee

dull heart
#

2.1 dog captures that pretty well imo

dusk bronze
#

i've seen parts of it, it's absolute cinema

valid crypt
#

Yeah

distant raft
#

i forget if thana even does refraction rotor in p5

cinder hearth
# tropic jolt isnt that the only thing it does

Nope! It also has 3 other attacks:

Exolaser bomb

Refraction rotor spam which explode into 6 different lasers

Prismatic burst that obliterates stuff in a cone of sight

And during those attacks he deals no contact damage

#

Speaking of infernum here

distant raft
#

whats exolaser bomb

cinder hearth
#

Because basecal doesn't ram dash you as often in general

cinder hearth
azure oak
#

still excited to see what the devs are gonna cook up with the exos rework

distant raft
#

ah

cinder hearth
#

That explodes into many projectiles

distant raft
#

completely forgot that was a thing

#

but this was also referring specifically to p5

placid wadi
#

even more interpretations of exo mechs fight

cinder hearth
distant raft
#

not a desp because he doesn't die

cinder hearth
#

Huh

The other two Mechs do, weird

azure oak
placid wadi
azure oak
#

(and will probably be accompanied by the official exos theme)

placid wadi
#

dusk bronze
azure oak
#

with the rework & theme releasing together, we're definitely gonna see the 4 year anniversary of the exo mechs with them still having their placeholder theme

tropic jolt
azure oak
#

ehh

exo mechs rework would probably be its own update so it could kinda release at any time after SSO

loud narwhal
#

Why desert scourge is getting a resprite

placid wadi

#

Whar

#

Wings ? 😭

ANyways

#

also generic sand worm is boring

azure oak

#

No

dusk bronze
#

no, bird

#

it was a while ago

placid wadi
fringe quiver
#

Fabsol did not make any sprites, it was an ex-spriter that left and shortly after leaving was outed as a || pedo ||

#

anyways

loud narwhal
#

Oh dear

#

Well now I understand

#

Thanks for clarifying

azure oak
#

yharon is very much still getting a resprite and a major rework

fringe quiver
#
  1. The current sprite is made by a Freak, so a resprite was somewhat warranted
  2. The current DS design is generally considered rather uninterested by the artists, which, yeah, from a creature design standpoint, it kinda is
  3. The new DS design is built to synergize with DS'S NEW fight, given that with Fabdeath, programmers can actually take full control of boss programming and make fully original AI for em over reusing vanilla code, with much more interesting and mechanically intensive fight design
azure oak
#

it's just not a priority

loud narwhal
fringe quiver
#

Basically every boss is if we're being real here

dusk bronze
#

it will be peak

loud narwhal
fringe quiver
#

I'd argue bosses that don't get reworked and/or resprited are the exception

azure oak
#

we did get a silhouette of the resprite

loud narwhal
#

Must be thinking of infernum

dusk bronze
#

it's still in infernum yea

loud narwhal

for yharon

loud narwhal
#

I’ve seen this one although idk if that’s official

dusk bronze
#

scrapped

rich ginkgo
#

that one is really old by now

halcyon seal
loud narwhal
#

But the one you showed definitely looks more awesome

lapis oak
#

it was an old iteration

halcyon seal
#

All I can really think of is like, anahita???

rich ginkgo
fierce hearth
#

I love how the yharon sprite has been like 8 years in the making and it has to be because unlike Providence, the current sprite looks like dog water so we can't say "nobody wants to do this it's too much work"

halcyon seal
#

I forgot if pbg was getting anything

dusk bronze
#

probably

rich ginkgo
#

yeah

#

it is

dusk bronze
#

what about provi

halcyon seal
#

Yeah I think it’s literally just anahita

rich ginkgo
#

well, a visual refresh

fierce hearth
#

PBG is an infamously poorly designed boss but isn't a priority compared to more plot and progression focused bosses

halcyon seal
lapis oak
#

LeviAna is mid

rich ginkgo
# dusk bronze what about provi

i heard for a while that they really didnt wanna do providence but i feel like post-fab they’re leaning more towards something new for her?

lapis oak
#

I can see them getting major changes

rich ginkgo
#

id like a resprite for providence she’s really messy rn

azure oak
#

probably hard to say which bosses won't get major changes

#

ideas can crop up over time

lapis oak
#

Providence

#

wait gotta specify about the gameplay

#

it’ll probably be a looong time before that happens

halcyon seal
dusk bronze
#

true

rich ginkgo
#

wouldnt be far fetched to say like, post distortion

loud narwhal
#

I’m just happy we’re finally going through the right path after Fabsol left

#

Having people back like CDmusic really is huge

halcyon seal
#

It’s crazy how fab leaving was literally only a good thing

dusk bronze
#

mhm

fierce hearth
#

Deep irony that the best thing that could happen to your passion project is to let other people have it goodone

placid wadi
#

sometimes it's better to pass on your project than force yourself to continue it without any ideas

loud narwhal
#

I was shocked to see the amount of people that guy has driven out of the project

azure oak
#

exo mechs can finally get reworked

placid wadi
#

especially if you only start making it worse with every iteration

rich ginkgo
azure oak
#

also true

fierce hearth
#

we can finally have whips

placid wadi
rich ginkgo
#

i mean to be fair werent we gonna get cal whips with fabsol in anyways

azure oak
#

yeah

rich ginkgo
#

i think fabsol was just REALLY picky on what happened with bosses and vanilla stuff

lapis oak
#

Fabsol was not the reason Cal still hasn't added whips

fierce hearth
#

From what I understand there was a lot of resistance to Journey's End content in general

halcyon seal
#

Now that fabsol is dead we can finally go skydiving without parachutes

azure oak
#

also evil2 can finally get retiered

fierce hearth
#

but I don't actually know if that was Fab's fault or just Dev Hell

halcyon seal
#

I can click on as many suspicious files as I want and not get any viruses

#

I can elect myself as god-emperor of delaware

fierce hearth
#

though from what we've seen with the amount of people who left and are now back, Fabsol and dev hell might be a very overlapping venn diagram

rich ginkgo
#

maybe ill finally win the $1000 mrbeast giveaway…

molten grove
#

fab wasnt too keen on whips, but “dev hell” is most of why whips arent real

halcyon seal
loud narwhal
#

What exactly is “Dev hell”?

dusk bronze
#

development hell

fierce hearth
#

Conflicting ideas, lack of time to work, etc, things that make updates slow to a crawl

molten grove
#

i think the current idea is wait for vanilla 1.4.5 and see what whips it adds before filling out our own

rich ginkgo
rich ginkgo
#

this is why silksong is never coming out, team cherry is dead

molten grove
#

🎃

loud narwhal
#

1.4.5 will be adding a lot of whips I heard. Although I doubt there will be many post moon lord

placid wadi
#

one can imagine the hell of making calamity compatible with new seeds

loud narwhal
molten grove
#

another aspect is just
wed rather focus art effort on SSO

dusk bronze
rich ginkgo
#

shhhhh no it’s not

dusk bronze
#

it got cancelled

rich ginkgo
#

it’s all an illusion

molten grove
#

hence why the first whip is planned to be a sunken sea whip

placid wadi
#

Sunken whip

rich ginkgo
#

what the hell was that

placid wadi
#

made out of algae idk

rich ginkgo
#

was that like a link to a leaked copy of silksong

dusk bronze
#

ip grabber

fierce hearth
#

LMAO

#

I tried to link a hard drive article joking about how Silksong is finally releasing so our default joke no longer works and we have to go back to the ol' reliable of Half Life 3

#

But automod obliterated it

loud narwhal
molten grove
#

catalyst sunken sea whips ignored

fierce hearth
#

Should we expect sunken sea weapons to get any resprites to have them fit different subbiomes or will sunken sea weapons still stick to the classic ultramarine and navy vibe

molten grove
#

well theyre definitely getting resprites

rich ginkgo
fierce hearth
#

I guess redesigns would be more applicable then, considering yeah a lot are pretty old and crusty compared to current sprite standards

molten grove
dusk bronze
#

loud narwhal
#

What about the Sea King NPC? Is he gonna still sell useless sh*t

#

Man I can’t wait for this update

loud narwhal

rich ginkgo

#

I'm happy it's going to be made to stay more relevant

rich ginkgo
#

the distortion questlines

dusk bronze
valid crypt
#

I think both will quest

rich ginkgo
#

really?

#

neat

pseudo vector
#

both amidias and statis will have quest lines

#

statis later along the line when we get around to the distortion

#

that won't be for a while though

halcyon seal
#

Statis quests sound so cool

#

Like before I learned about lore I kinda just assumed he was dead ngl

fierce hearth
#

Don't forget Permafrost will also be a quest boy

#

3 whole quest freaks...

pseudo vector
#

also i think once you guys get to see the new desert scourge fight the resprite / new design will make a lot more sense

halcyon seal
#

Gfb should swap sprites for sepulcher and new dscourge tbh

pseudo vector
#

nah

#

too much effort

halcyon seal
#

That’s fair

pseudo vector
#

and also the reasons mentioned previously with the current sprite being made by a, uh
less than desirable person

fierce hearth
#

GFB changes operate on a rule that the amount of work a change requires must be proportional to how funny it is

dusk bronze
#

true

New topic

#

Has the DoG been given a new design over this iteration?

lapis oak
#

no

placid wadi
#

Bald DoG

loud narwhal
#

If so (or if not), how will it be implicated into terraria in terms of the pixelated-ness

arctic cliff
placid wadi
#

on screen

loud narwhal
#

Because wouldn’t it look like a moving png if were to have this sort of high quality texture

#

How will it fit terraria’s style (even by calamity standards)?

lapis oak
#

I don't get it?

#

that's literally every worms right now

#

moving pngs

loud narwhal
vivid hemlock
#

its not gonna be like current dog where the sprite isnt animated at all

vivid hemlock
#

its just very very large

placid wadi
lapis oak
#

the pixel sizes are the same

loud narwhal
#

But viewing from a distance, will DoG look pixelated?

#

Idk

#

I’m just asking questions

arctic cliff
#

yeah i think its possible

lapis oak
#

yes it will

loud narwhal
#

I haven’t given much thought about it

lapis oak
#

because on the screen it'll be so big

#

look at Leviathan

arctic cliff
#

like, we're assuming the sprite will be to scale and not like be given an arbitrary size increase

lapis oak
#

or Providence

vivid hemlock
#

personally i dont think this design is the best possible route for dog but its still pixelated like everything else

#

the only times where something isnt pixel consistent is like item size motifiers

lapis oak
#

you wanna start DoG discussion again?

vivid hemlock
#

no

#

shut up kiri

loud narwhal
#

I understand it’s pixelated, it just looks super detailed

#

I guess that’s my point

vivid hemlock
#

yeah

loud narwhal
#

Providence or Leviathan isn’t as detailed as this one here

#

Hence why they still fit within the terraria world

pearl sentinel
loud narwhal
placid wadi
#

Calamity doesn't really go for terraria artstyle

#

those two are mostly distinct

loud narwhal
#

That’s why I said even by calamity’s standards

lapis oak
#

Calamity's standards is being good

#

there're so many different styles in the mod

#

it's never consistent

vivid hemlock
#

there are like 6+ spriters plus anyone else who used to work for the mod in the past

azure oak
#

DoG's real rework is still a while away so maybe the design changes at some point

vivid hemlock
#

also that too

#

the distortion update is years away i highly doubt the sprite's staying the same

lapis oak
#

possibly

loud narwhal
#

Yeah i do agree I just wanted to talk about something lol

Swap to evil smasher and just charge it for the kb immune

evil smasher also is a spiritual successor now to one of our old fallen items 🫡

Then swap to your actual weapon after it’s done
