New prefixes are hella cool
you did
π ????
But dauntless seems kinda useless with omega blue
No comment.
Thats the only art of the redesign
How exactly does the clam get his soul if he moves into your town lol
look at this beauty
you get it back
No I mean quest 1 let's him be a town npc
invasive clam species
he dries upΒ΄and you have to get it back to undry him
If he is living in your town how the clam gets him
it walks there
clam falls from the sky
Wow what a clamity amirite fellas
everyone knows clams have legs.
watch it ruin multiplayer when it gets in, just like how wotg does with their questline stuff
Removing your kneecap privileges
but yeah i think the idea of making the first look into the official redesign be the fucking orios drawing was the funniest fucking idea ever
thank you triangle
Is the soul stored in the pearl?
im very sure it's what initiates hardmode clam
Damn that makes scavenger trading much more grim
did it steal moon lords legs
Oh ok
Every pearl has a unique copy of Amidas' soul.
Collect them all!
I don't think anything has bene saind in regards to that
I thought that meant the pearl was the soul or smth
I doubt these quests will be anywhere near as code intense as the wotg quests
No
not really
Thought so π
Well, uh, you're a nerd!
wwg i will seal your dark fountains
We are all nerds you can't escape it
Who could hate everyone's beloved game mechanic that everyone certainly knew existed.
nuh uh
Triangle don't be posting emojis like that that's a bad joke

What you laughing at smh
What about that emoji
It's simply too based
and why was the message deleted even
Its literally just a cat emoji unless it has some evil lore idk
Wait yeah, I thought something seemed to be missing
good thing I main warding now 
these 2 prefixes will be revolutionary
that cat was evil
evil cat warlord
@dusty tinsel

Explain
Why you deleted the message and what is the issue of the emoji
It appeared to be a kinda offing one self joke
mpg enjoys new accessory prefixes that make tank builds stronger. next up for todays news, we report that a fork was indeed found in a kitchen
triangle what is that evil miracle looking shotgun btw
Which isn't allowed
Is it
wha
it was a sad cat getting washed π
???
It had a gun to its chin
oh
Uncanny
The gun to its head thibg
It has?
Yes
yeah theres a gun
i thought it was getting washed
lol
π₯Ή
i didnt notice the gun im ngl
Make sense
Everyone is secretly a cat
π
discordia stays peaceful another day
π± π«
watergun
mango cat
I am sorry I have to give you a verbal for that triangle
π
ill kill everyone
adding to the list of silly things devs have verbals for 
no more peace
trully
waow
pulling up at school with them void striders
I have a theory that Burrower is the Calamitas Clone version of Sepulcher
its the first tier of the reworked armored digger
It's actually one of the robot worms
fl studio cat
Oh
How did vanilla beat me to it π
HOLY FUCKING SHIT CHANGELOGS
Hes true!!!!!!
I didn't even see vanilla talking
Nevermind then
ok so eleshiv got a rename, then another rename, into a rework
all within sso development
reworkception
OH SHIT NEW PREFIXES
Ponder the SSOrb
Orb go brrr
They had it queued up just for that moment
what does ball and chain do again
useless
Dashes iirc
changelog is real
It uh...disables double-tap dashes
Interesting
And it has to be favorited to work
ignore the fact that u can bind dash override to do the same effect
all dashes
what a uselessful accessory
Admittedly, I'm kind of surprised that they didn't just give it a mode function like the encumbering stone
its not an accessory
u just need it in ur inv
ball and chain now lets you destroy rocks when it passes by them
oops wrong game
right i commonly mixed those up
heres the new ball and chain sprite if anyone wants to see it for some reason
Its got a bit more soul to it
Boy do I have news for you
Hell yeah
I adore the cartoon logic of a sticky note modifying its weight.
this reforge change seems super cool
anything to make the reforge meta more interesting is good imo
OHHHH- I was wondering what that was about! yeah, that's really funny
oh so thats what that is
i thought it was a lock
thats pretty fun
Holy shit changelogs
I earnestly donβt know what the Ball and Chain do off the top of my head.
disables dashes
Feels like an item I see and subsequently ignore in the crafting menu.
Ah, right.
I thought it was like...some sort of fungal growth or a flower, so I had no idea what it was about
angler took the changelogs
Calamitas clone arena sounds interesting
Also completely unrelated, but I like the feature Discord added where if you type in someone's username, it highlights your text, purely because it's just really funny when I'm not expecting it (which is almost never)
Like I got one just there because of pure
im glad to hear the arenas getting improved too huge W
Clone arena is peak
ohhh that's why, it turns it into an @ if you click on the thing that shows their name
Wat
is there a list of planned resprites cos i remember an old one from yrs ago
pure
It is for me
Might be different depending on the device though, a lot of features are
yeah i got it on pc but not mobile
Such as the searching feature, which annoys me endlessly
whaaaaat! Thats crazyβ¦
what even is the point of this when you can just put an @ before the name lmao
like slightly quicker tagging
that's...a good point
to accidentally ping people
Lazy bitches be like
I guess it might just be that, it's slightly more convenient
buh buh buh bingo!!!
i i you wow i
Barry63tron Prime
Also at the very @rough cedar st, it's difficult to do it accidentally, because you have to click on the thing itself or press tab when it's up
are you sure
I'm pretty confident
Yeah, what are the chances you ping someone by accident?
its very hard to do accidentally yes
π
it works for friend nicks
for example i can type tupid and then click tab and ping melon gun
well i cant rn since im on mobile but yea
kitchen gun vs melon gun
CHANGELOGS YESSSSS
theres people whose usernames arent wat you would typically know them as
and amidias said: let there be changelogs!
@dull heart Do you know who worked on the visual of calclone?
the humble display name
I did
Goated
theres people who have wacky ass display names too
Goateddoze25
btw what does something in changelogs mean? is everything there tested to make sure its functional, or just implemented, but not tested?
π
I means it's been merged to the main branch
so it's all but guaranteed for release
changelogs
it means the logs were changed
they're in
Oh man, I can't wait until tomorrow when the red nation discovers the fishing quests changes and proceed to be ignited with fire
im guessing it wouldnt be merged if it wasnt tested then?
not not subject to change but they're in
Truly entertaining
yea usually
Tested as in balanced? not
and works
Yesh
clearly we should bring back the - Done β to convey what's been tested and what hasn't

clearly we should kill you
Would be nice lol
can we make it to 1000 changelogs?
my favourite part of the Done β is that half of them never got tested but have the coveted tag anyway
you do not have the power
red nation doesnt care about angler they care about boss changes and occasionally weapon changes
just out of convention
but my moldy chicken nugget yharon is nostalgic bruh..
When the head dev refuses to use branches π₯
ozzatron refuses to use branches

Nah, we sacrificed the -Done β to bring done dev back
Done - Done β
Doze - Done β
WHAT
?????
that's insane
it literally doesn't exist
spoilers: these are NOT a part of the update. these aren't even in 2.1
LMAO??
they're also like 99% scrapped rate
how was this a thing, and how did I not notice this till now?
lmao
Astral is very memorable
753 - Improved Supreme Witch, Calamitas' arena.
can we seeee .,,,
Astral Undergrowth got hit by the "the devs wanting to work on it left"
Sheβs blue
No, she's still laying the bricks.
there are no bricks

It's not made of brick!?
Years of civil engineering, wasted!
im expecting it to be really cool
lol????
why spend resources on bricks when you can use π spells
apparently this was meant for hellish harbour to give parity for evil biomes having jungle integration but never got in
It's good for clearing the head or something I'm not a therapist. You can't be relying on magic for everything, it's not good for you.
Astral Undergrowth is coded??
might be peak
"available for the 1.4.4 port" and never got in lmao
what???
Ig if astral undergrowth happened then it would be fine for the meteor to fall anywhere instead of just on the dungeon side
cat ponder failed me
i think its talking about astral + jungle + underground
its not
and not like the old undergrowth ideas
by the way
No
oh
does like
lmao?????
would astral undergrowth even have anything meaningful
that's my point
25 25 25 moment
marked as done for the love of the game
it was supposed to
like was astral gonna change spawn conditions or something
literally for the love of the game
cuz as is there'd basically never be a natural astral jungle
the thought was marked as done π£οΈ π₯
insane to make a whole ass new alternate astral infection instead of making current astral infection good 
It's obviously meant to be the prophetic future tense, where something is so certain to happen you phrase it like it already happened.
astral plague hive
if you gaslight yourself enough it might manifest into reality
With the astral plague queen bee
but... i love magic
eugh
astral plaguebringer goliath
astral vs plague turf war
absolutely vile
assbringer goliath? my favorite
i uh
i think the plague gets neg diffed
like ok the thing he made for exploration got neg diffed by the astral
i think its eating the plague nanobots for free
team cherry's next game hahaha funny
zotesong
actually wasnt silksongs trailer literally a year after hk release
will calamity update before gta 6
ares! give me the elemental shiv rework and my life is yours!
it was meant to be hollow knight dlc
it just like
got too big
the hk dlc was made pretty quickly
i mean silksongs announcement trailer
iunno
yes
the trailer wasnt teasing the dlc it was teasing the game
silksong got a trailer before hollow knight even got its last dlc lmao
π
silksong trailer was 6 years ago I think, so 2019. hollow knight was out long before that
2017 - hollow knight
2018 - final hollow knight dlc
2019 - silksong announced
2025 - silksong released
i think this is misinformation actually don't know why i remember godhome releasing so late
oh only 2017 mb
im pretty sure they said they're doing something non-hk series related next
hype
HUNGRY KNIGHT 2!!!!
idk if that's still the case because they also said silksong will be the last during it's development
silksong will probably get dlc
that much is confirmed
they got like some random burst of energy nearing its end and now they're talking about "ambitious DLC's"
steel city, coming out in 7 more years
oooohhh two new prefixes?
steel city would be fucking peak
yes and the rest of the accessory reforges are a lil refreshed
Would you like to see More Acts on silksong even as a dlc
act 4 hallownest 
the story's kinda done in pharloom so idk how they'd do a whole extra act
hornet bonking her head on every door frame because shes too tall
Not sure about acts, but I'd be interested in seeing an expansion on lifeblood
epilogue where you walk around a saved pharloom and then return to hallownest and the ending is a teaser for the next game 
there is the plasmium situation
those are indeed a lot of reworks done
it's definitely not the final game anyways, still so much lore uncovered
Hollow Knight: Hollow Knight
what do you mean you lost verdania? go find it!
silksong added even more mysteries to the lore lmao

doesn't feel like it did
it didnt even conclude what happened to the weavers π we just know they ran away and a couple went back to pharloom for some reason
expanded on lifeblood and steel beings and void a little bit but didnt conclude anything there either
the few that didn't get hunted down by the citadel or die for any other reason are just around i suppose
like the ones chilling in hallownest doing absolutely nothing
I can't think of all of them, but consider: || Grayroot ||
hungry
what does this mean
Zote lore expansion
hungry
grayroot doesnt really eat anything
wait you're right how did i not think of this
I hope next Team cherry game is Zoteboat
i think i would play as literally anyone else instead of zote
wasnt seth a make a wish oc
yes
yeah
i dont think we're getting seth gameplay
the dudes nail does 0 damage
we play as the gray prince obviously
He's also a self insert iirc
correct
only in colleseum...
which is the only place we fight him in within the real world
so i dont get the point
i don't think silksong opened too many brand new mysteries but i am curious about a lot of things after its release
i want to know more about the void and higher beings and the surface
who said a dlc or a game cant be all zote dreaming
the zoteboat trailer is amazing
Random thought, but how would you guys feel about a HK game with a villain protagonist-type situation, or at least one where the main paths actually make things worse for whatever kingdom it'd take place in?
Because in Hollow Knight, Ghost's character is...nonexistant, and intentionally so, but most of the endings involve either taking up the mantle of the Hollow Knight and staving off the Radiance for a bit longer or killing her outright. And in Silksong, it's arguable that the only true bad ending is the || Twisted Child || one, which is kind of a secret and is one you're discouraged from getting
like every single ending in silksong is bad besides the true ending π π
defeating gms and hornet binding her goes directly against her wishes but follows what the weavers wanted (NOT a good thing theyβre fucked up too)
twisted child is self explanatory
Really? Honestly, I thought Weaver Queen would be alright because Hornet is at least more well-meaning than Grandmother Silk, so even if it's worse for her, she might be kinder to Pharloom than GMS was
And snared Silk is in a weird spot, since I think that's moreso a loose end that Sister of the Void completes
mr mushroom peak tho
Because of this, I think Embrace the Void from Hollow Knight is the only one that fits more of what I'm talking about, where instead of of being the savior that fights off an incoming apocalypse to...varying degrees of success, you are the apocalypse
Cheese Calamity
βYou speak of their crest? That signifier of a bug's essence and their invisible yoke born through a lifetime.β
as hornet binds crests she directly absorbs the essence of that bug
also something to do with their memories and personality i believe
when hornet binds gms we see a new crest start to form and at the very end of the cutscene we watch hornet grow more limbs akin to gms
it wouldnt be farfetched to say that by binding gms and absorbing her essence and gaining her crest, that her personality becomes more like gmsβ rather than just keeping her own with new powers
That's...fair, but does Hornet's personality change when she gets her other crests?
it works similar to masks iirc
take the mask of a bug off and they unveil a whole new personality
spoilerous
yes
Wait- right, the beast crest...
no because those arent the crests of a godlike pale being lmao
also absorbing gms blew up like half the citadel and got encased in silk
I guess I'd say it's ambiguous in that case, but that's a fair argument to make
ok no more skonging before we all get killed
both cold and hot
imma be real i didnt like how that previous image turned out so i made it much better
it changes how she acts in combat so it affects her somehow
No
Honestly, I'm imagining a combination of really sour and sickeningly sweet pop rocks
think of those experimental flavours that just end up being really sweet
probably one of those
fair nuff
how did we get here
imposter
Good job KiriAI
kiri will receive 20% more electrons, as a treat
I thought it said Gaster originally
they tried that but it corrupted the entire update... its taken a year to get back to this point
Unstable Granite Core but itβs a weapon
you're kidding right?
sso was not in october nor september
yeah, true.
any reasons why lower tier reforges give additional stats?

So they aren't pointless.
nerf warding
specifically pinging CIT for this one
and no one else
2 new acc reforges for tank build omg
increase life regen is fucking awesome
WAIT, REGENERATOR REWORK
.
this is gonna go so hard
New charisma stat to lower the cost of drugs from the nurse and bullets from the arms dealer
can we add this one to the game actually
Amidias hath been born again, let this farce end. Tomorrow shall come, and it shalt be a new day.
Inshallah
the 760, this means DR is no longer butchered so hard when you want to stack DR right?
yeah
they apply after defense rather than before and are calculated independently so i think that just means its all adr
the little bug has crawled out of its nest
accurate
Very accurate
When update release date
7 fargo years
wtf ogsculian burrower in basecal
he is evolving
when its done
Mods, ban this idiot
BOTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT
(The spam/scam)
no /j
Betrayal /silly
walking ogscule
who beat me to banning them π
the fungus
it was the lizard
The scoog? (Creature)
the fungus is coming
lizard is on the menu today fellow calamity fans
how would you like your lizard cooked
π
calamatoing
fuck you I was being nice
Medium well
@rare tinsel i am sorry, but you are beeing barbaqued
Cool him medium well
This will surely aid SSO development.
DO NOT
i am too slow i see the ping and had to joke before dealing with them
the little bug fumes with anger
Tiny critter
i am not cooking vanilla. Vanilla ain't a lizard
at least i don't think vanilla is a lizard
are you a lizard? also what happened to the terraria is you meme name
swallows the lizard
yah, but DS can't ban people irl
nope, and ive reverted back
That's crazy when you think about it
@lapis oak answer me
KiriAI the Electronless One Demon
those who proton
what
why are you
answer vanilla
what?
Those who electron
i will remove all your electrons pretty soon
Mods be removing everyoneβs electrons these days
Calamity mod spoiler
All shroom users go to hell
Probably accurate
Shroom should give -1% damage increase
close
infernum Scal shroom nohit
Invigorating should increase Regenerator damage right?
is there any regen that doesn't work with Regenerator? because "normal life regen" sounds like there're exceptions
stuff that directly changes hp
anything that just heals you
instead of giving regen
like bloodflare core, one of the parts of Radiance, or lifesteal
healing pots in general but you knew that
While afflicted with any of the following debuffs, grants +20 defense, a 30-second headstart for natural life regen, and a flat +5 HP/s that eventually slows to +0.33 HP/s
that one i think
π
Regenator upgrade that turns healpots into temporary super regen
about the changelogs, I'm curious to see what the improved scal arena would look like
it's too peak I'm leaving it on lockdown
I specifically made sure yuh didn't put more info than that in the changelog
imagine a fargos arena but its a square
_ _
_ _
D;
Canβt remember if itβs what Iβm thinking of or something else
speak your mind
π©
Damn these changelogs. Stop making me excited. D:
(Reading them, I mean. Not the fact that it is blinking)
close enough
how goblinful is kiri
I think the logical next step for the reforge changes would be to do something similar with weapons.
Yeah that would be nice, but it also sounds like a balancing nightmare
No
actually I don't really know what Fargo arenas do aren't they just like push you in towards the center when you leave the area
some are
some are soft seals that slowly drag you in
some are hard seals that you can't exit and are dragged in if you teleport out
some just inflict a debuff (wof) (its the tongue)
hard seals also deal damage
oh yeah p1 mutant seal also inflicts a debuff but its like the single strongest debuff in tmod
my plan almost worked...
there's also the lifelight desp border but thats like really funky because its bouncy
and also uniquely square
its strange
this
will make all modifier suggestion harder to answer definitely
time to get away with "try them all"
i still think its gonna be either warding or invigorating
dauntless may be up there but only if it gets really overtuned like +40 post dog
that's defensive play, not all play defensive tho
+240 health post dog with the reforge would be funny
Curious what itβll be though
i just wish defense had actually diminishing returns
i dont think thats possible
not without like
flipping defense and dr
Hi hai hello hi.
Were dauntless and invigorating swapped?
actually dr doesnt have real diminishing returns either
I swear they were the other way around before
original changelogs got the order wrong lol
they are in their proper position now

DR has effective scaling that should be enough
is pretty obvious if you look at the names and the effects
True the names do make more sense this way
i meant moreso with like, defense potentially having dimishing returns
if it was just dr, dr by itself doesnt have diminishing returns unless you do some oddball shenanigans
i don't think you can give defense diminishing return by terraria gameplay's core
like every instance of dr applying seperately or smth
so instead of 50% it'd be like. 10% 5 times or whatever combination of dr got you to 50%
but because terraria defense is flat damage negation you cant really normally give it diminishing returns
I wonder, how are they going to handle accessory reforging if reforges now give additional stats? Like, now that Menacing, Violent, Lucky, Quick, Warding, Silent are not just the best at everything now
you can... if the health of you and damage of bosses also scale fast enough
but given this is terraria no matter where your progression is from full health you can pretty much die (normally) in 3-7 hits, give or take
this doesnt give it diminishing returns though it just makes it worse
silent is still like the only stealth gen reforge
but it just gives you more options
Logs lookin' cool as hell this time around
itll probably just allow the reforge rework to not need to apply for accessories
since every reforge is like . good
oh boy
cuz from what ive seen every reforge is like
a 2 2 split
time to miss my reforge and having to do it 500 times again
like rash is 2 crit 2 melee speed
fearmonger upscale
regen damage Regenerator π€«
more max hp means more regen
Good morning i just woke up
changelogsβ¦ oh nevermind theyβre here
changelogs today
Can't exactly do much about it, i won't be at my pc for another 6 hours
CHANGELOG
You're a sick fuck for what you did to that seahorse
this is the original image π
ts is cursed π
this is the one image of his redesign
original pic is lost media
I wonder if I can get that as a painting
found media
Old amidias vs new amidias
in game
would be peak i think
nah we need that as a shirt
can someone put this on a shirt
screw the draedon shirt lets get some real art
redbubble time
where are the bots theyre supposed to be flooding right now
Need this in painting so badly
keep it
yharim is dead
Are there any other concepts of new elemental weapon designs available beside flowers of mortality?
π₯ fire
Not a leak but yes
fucking amidias jonkler
its our only sneak peek
π₯
Oh hey cool changelogs
Can someone tell us what the Burrower is
Worm
oh cool
Slapstick worm
Gets launched, stuck in rock, goes limp, explodes
Actually pretty neat to see it have a bit of physics
Also seems like it can still turn while the head is above ground
Aw :(
malamar and gerson have been added to calamity
and no, not as donor names

our friend malamar
Chills sent down my spine
That not even the original just the first orios one
technically the actual original
the atrocity that i made
the thing that spawned it all
Changelogs RIGHT NOW
how far we've come from shitty ms paint jonkler amidias to a genuinely good drawing of amidias redesign jonkler
π
And then it the first seen art of amidias redesign
by all means this is a spoiler
after so much amidias torture this chat finally gets an actual spoiler, in the form of a new amidias jonkler image
its absolute cinema
The fact changelogs happed not that long after amidias got shown though
He summoned them.
Amidias bringer of changelogs
this sentence would kill a victorian child
true
Honestly, how well the image itself went kinda makes me wanna try and get better at digital painting
I kinda did it with a brush that's not meant for it at all
Same brush i made the first one with
the Burrower.
Also starfleet rework
ggg will be pleased
burrower is my favorite addition
Curious about the calamitas arena "improvements"
yeah same

they're certainly improving
Show us proof

Incredible

calamity development
thats tragic
Shit
bachelor of science, major in maths and stats calamity

didnt go for a masters
while you studied maths and physics i learned how to wield the summoner rework
not yet, i might go back in a couple of years
sick
when do you plan to start job hunting
major in math
Same
Itβs gonna prolly mess up the arena I built
cant lie the job market for math aint crazy
For death mode scal
i should be now realisitically
i have music exams/auditions for the rest of the month so probably after that
wow good luck
π£οΈ
what do you play
piano, oboe, and i sing
i've got a diploma exam for piano, auditioning for my orchestra for next year, and auditioning for a stageshow all within the next month
damn! youre a jack of all trades i had no clue
yes and on top of that i also obsess way too much over calamity summoner balance
it's very healthy
Fluffy is that one gifted person
better than biome blade balqnce
nah im like goated
i can like
sit in bed
fluffy cant do they too busy
unfortunately true
Boring
take some time off then before starting the job hunt prpbably

i'm hoping to learn guitar one day but i'm too broke to get into a course rn
need to become more emo goth and learn how to play a guitar and get a drivers license specifically to ride in a motocycle
ill hopefully start college next year
was hoping for this year but couldn't happen
good luck π
what are you gonna studyy
ride your motorcycle while playing guitar and looking extremely emo
gl
i started college a while back but dropped out because i am not in a good life position 4 college rn

sucks
so instead i just went for a tech course instead
data science or mech engineering probably
mechatronics
its pretty fun
my friend studies mechatronics he really likes it
plus its free so
free
i have a friend in engineering and one in mechatronics
they are absolutely insanely busy and have one more year in their degrees by default
really
my friend doing a double degree and he aint that busy
i swear everyone else is so much more busy than me
they got like 20 assignments due all the time
true perhaps i will fund this summer with ozzabucks
do u have experienc
not in a relevant field, but i've been working casually through my entire degree
slay
lol
CalClone getting an arena is an Interesting change
it's peam
from the testers, is the arena just a box or does it have platforming
who knows!
Bad piggy
Horrible hog
When is worst warthog
id think you do
have you ever peeked over at your other devs monitor in your collective 6 meter x 6 meter x 6 meter dev cube
yeah i do
hiiii helloo ;3;3;3;3;;333
wow
doze keeps sitting in the corner hiding his screen
true
do they not look at other monitors
illegal

not to my knowledge no
unfortunately
i've watched the full vanillin pipeline be completed
Since Heavenly Gale resprite is revealed (through dia streaming)
I assume all miracle weapons will be white branch and blue, red themed
more or less
white branches/roots (does it matter which one it is), red energy exhaust, and then crystal colors for whatever class it is
Banger designs
Whuh
I've seen some blue on the ranger weapons too which is unusual
Vortex is blue
Weird teal inbetween not flat out green
Secondly it's a much deeper color, the ones I've seen
Vortex dye looks pretty green to me
Yeah the only parts that look teal are the ones that are made to be lighter (to evoke the feeling of them emitting light)
Agree to disagree
Fair
yeah the shinier parts are teal while the darker parts are more green
that would be the crystals
What does 753 mean exactly
yellow
So is there actual decoration in the arena or are there just a couple extra blocks thrown into the mix
i feel like i can't say too much without it getting super spoilery
all i can say is that the arena looks much cooler now
RHUAGHHHHH
SSO TOMORROW
It's not just box anymore?
Now it's tesseract and you need to figure out how 4d space works to properly dodge her
true
its not just a basic ass box anymore yeah
you'll get to see it eventually
idk when but you eventually will
went into the future content doc and i assume this one is flowers of mortality but kind of unsure since the concept had different colors
i see the blue-orange theme (either stardust themed or fire and frost)
Might be tundra flame blossoms
but scal's ai remains unchanged right?
For now yeah
yeah the fight is basically the same
honestly her current fight feels underwhelming for the final boss imo
Yeah i think she's getting changed eventually
js not now
My understanding is that she's good for calamity standards and from what ive seen shes not a bad fight but she could be better yeah
Iβm gonna assume Mutant is asking for royalties
Then again i never fought her
Β―_(γ)_/Β―
Just going off of what ive seen people say
Scal is a good fight compared to the other cal bosses yeah
Yeah sheβs an ok boss but not great
Which makes her one of the best by default
she might get a rework eventually but she's not urgent at all currently
because she's one of the better ones rn
defeated her on master death mode with rogue without much issues (somewhere around 10 attempts)
a bit underwhelming but still okay as of now
but i imagine as we go and rework the bosses she'll lose that status she once had of being the best boss in the mod or whatever
I'm not really talking about difficulty tbh
I don't care much about super hard difficulties and never will, i don't think the devs are thinking too hard abt em either
yeah i get what you mean
DoG (current) is apaprently a frustratingly hard but incredibly shitty fight (or so ive heard π)
so how hard a boss is isn't a good metric imo
i meant the fight on its own doesnt feel like final one, regardless of the difficulty
yeah ngl difficulty is not something we're focussing on for bosses going forward, yeah we'll keep it in mind but it won't be the primary directive or whatever
From what I remember last time I fought DoG he was super tanky
I probably wasn't using a good weapon against him or something though
fun bosses are basically always better than hard bosses
its true
but you can find a balance
its just better to make bosses more enjoyable rather than hard asf
eg. minos prime, pure vessel, etc
I think difficulty amplifies fun in both directions
Like a hard boss can be way more fun
And also way more bad

difficulty is a slight aspect which makes fights more fun but not entirely
Fun af but not on the hard side imo
||The Roaring Knight|| is also a good example (Deltarune Spoiler)
agree
True
actually, i like dynamic/fast-paced boss fights
i need to kill ravager sometime so i can actually make progress in calamity but im lazy
or more specifically
Definitely agree though, I'd rather fights being fun comes before them being difficult
im lazy when it comes to playing calamity specifically
i dont like pbg so im just gonna skip to ravager
but i dont feel like it
Same tier so its not skipping
Dont beat yourself up
someone get the melter
guys what do you think will be the theme of the next major update after sunken sea?
Local Cal Moderator hasn't beaten the mod, gets beaten in #calamity-update-talk
Sunken sea 2
crags overhaul in terms of major
unless u count sso pt 2 as major yeah
depends on what u define as major lol
awh didnt mean that, i forgot theres gonna be part 2 π
roy co owner. cal moderator. helps with the lore sometimes. never gotten past pbg
pt1 and 2 i count as one major expansion of sunken sea
I know the Sulphurous Sea and Astral Infection will probably get changed considerably in the future but don't know when
imo crags or sulphurous sea
not to the same degree of a complete overhaul like crags or sunken sea
