[lapis oak]

there are but you have to do it yourself

such as backup codes

[blazing field]

Well there are

[grave geyser]

ah.

[blazing field]

Problem is that my authenthicator isn't working so can't do that

And i can't access the backup codes since i don't have the account

[lapis oak]

rip

[blazing field]

And i can't log in through sms because it uses my old dead phone number

the game was rigged from the start and it's mostly my fault for forgetting to update this shit

[stiff light]

dang

what do u really lose tho tbh

better than like a steam account

[blazing field]

yeah literally the only actual problem i have is

the server i fucking Own 😭

ill have to figure smth out for that

but other than that yeah its negligible

literally just

go my Minor Incovenience

[misty wren]

your old account will get deleted after a few months iirc

[blazing field]

I'll probably just make a new server if i dont get my main back

[stiff light]

that is problematic

[misty wren]

alternatively talk to discord support and ask for ownership transfer

[stiff light]

yea

or just ask for ur account back

idk if they can do that

[misty wren]

they can i think its just a bit complicated

[stiff light]

fair enuff

you got no real way to prove youre you

[grave geyser]

they definitely can its a matter of whether they will

[stiff light]

discord is a good company and i love them so much

[grave geyser]

[lyric trellis]

So funny thing about Perennial

It’s not in the jungle

[summer shore]

We love perennial

[lyric trellis]

It’s so unserious

[dusk bronze]

i know it's obviously not gonna happen but if i could kill one, it'd be chlorophyte

keep perennial

[summer shore]

make chlorophyte spread to stone

This will certainly go well

hi

new chart just dropped

FUCK I NOTICE A MISTAKE RIGHT AWAY

krilling myself

[distant raft]

weapo n

[zinc mortar]

grape beer gives ALL projectiles homing???

holy molay

[summer shore]

seems to only be ranger projectiles

[zinc mortar]

well I only play ranger so it's basically all projectiles

[distant raft]

notice how it doesn't say sawblades

[barren hollow]

Oh that's awesome. I always disliked the current alcohol since most just nerfed defense or heath regen

[zinc mortar]

superradiant slaughterer is garbo now... so sad...

[azure oak]

oh damn margarita seems good

though getting enough dark shards seems like a pain

[dusk bronze]

cinnamon roll is now portable deep diver

[lapis oak]

you craft Alcohol in bulk

[barren hollow]

Grape beer seems really overpowered for heavy hitters like the high damage snipers and whatnot

But it does nerf crits so maybe not

[azure oak]

unless debuffs are given a major buff, the margarita just kinda seems like something with little to no downsides

[barren hollow]

Right I mean they are nice suplimental damage but in the grand scheme of things the debuffs given to you matter way more

[pearl sentinel]

YES

YESSSS

[proud plover]

Ooh I like these way more than the current alcohol effects

[modern grove]

Am I stupid what's the point of old fashioned

Like in what possible scenario are you going to use it

[plush carbon]

Lawnmower Only

[dusk bronze]

weaponless

[gray trench]

Hm

@ Doze is non-weapon a universal stat including debuff or is it just classless+typeless+accessory damage?

[zinc mortar]

slagsplitter glaze

[twin bloom]

Or toxic heart

[lapis oak]

Accessories, Armor, Mounts supports

[lapis oak]

Old Fashioned doesn't buff debuffs no

[gray trench]

I don't see how this is mutually exclusive with non-weapon? Last i checked, debuff isn't a weapon

That's why i ask, it's ambiguous wording

[lapis oak]

Old Fashioned is unchanged

and it doesn't buff debuffs

[gray trench]

[lapis oak]

fixed some chud mistakes

[wise bolt]

mixing together weird goo and space dust for vodka is rly funny

[azure oak]

the alcohol brewing system in concept is funny to me in general

you get back from fighting a goddess that wishes to kill everything, and they you go and brew up some booze

[lapis oak]

omg reminded me of RLCraft

fight some shits -> go home and brew

[azure oak]

imagine draedon's pov

[gray trench]

Hello tofu

[azure oak]

you go down to finally meet the one who will be fighting your magnum opera

[lapis oak]

wtf

[lapis oak]

booze

[gray trench]

This wasn't in his calculations

[azure oak]

who knows why the effect have to come from alcohol, maybe it's what's needed to make it work, maybe it's the process, maybe the terrarian just wants to get drunk

[iron dew]

what if the alcohol doesnt actually do anything and its all just the placebo effect

[azure oak]

the terrarian is secretly a warhammer 40k ork

[still bluff]

All the bosses watching the terrarian chug a full bottle of everclear before each fight

[lapis oak]

(do this irl)

[iron dew]

maybe the nohitters are onto something we should all just start chugging full bottles of everclear

[cunning sequoia]

"hmm, this terrarian is an enigma. They have survived against some of the strongest entities this world has to offer. I must see their battle prowess for myself."

Summoner is not eating good in brainstorm

Cool whip is cool

Easy to make but needs a mythril anvil

Which in calamity needs 1 mech

I guess it does make firecracker more relevant

[pseudo vector]

isn't that literally how it is in vanilla?

mythril being obtained after killing 1 mech boss

[autumn compass]

No

You can get all ores at the start of hardmode

I think you've gotten too used to Cal LOL

Firecracker applies damage multiplier instead of flat bonus?

Damn

[amber egret]

man i HATE cala- woah did you see that

[twin bloom]

👀 👀 👀

[desert garnet]

doesnt most whips in cal applies multi?

[high scaffold]

Idk

Both flat and multi have their own potential

[dusky void]

would brainstorm update focus on prehm stuff?

[desert garnet]

everything beside sunken sea

mage is eating good

[dusky void]

wb hardmode content

[hasty tangle]

everything besides the sunken sea includes hardmode stuff that isnt in the sunken sea

[desert garnet]

the content will be in every stage

[pseudo vector]

brainstorm's reworks and such basically cover the whole game

every stage of the game will be different in some way, small or large

~6 hours ago

[azure oak]

neat

[tribal isle]

mirror blade is kinda tuff

[dusk bronze]

pluh

[azure oak]

is a cool sprite

[tribal isle]

wait is mirror blade reworked

or its still

mirror blade

with a new sprite

[dusk bronze]

reworked

significantly

[tribal isle]

tuff

[spark kiln]

yo i was about to say the (old) mirror blade sprite is ass and then i saw that they resprited it

tuff

[red aspen]

i wonder if the laser on the cultist on the website pic means a photosynthesis rework

it's my fav mage weapon from hardmode. hope that if it is getting reworked it doesnt change too much

[spark kiln]

it’s the titanium railgun

[high scaffold]

I read about summoner on wiki, my head hurts now
1.4.5 isnt even out yet

[spark kiln]

also what the hell is a forbidden circlet

[red aspen]

good good. i do like that weapon, but with the adamantite version on the same progression point is kinda never used

no wonder i like the adamantite version btw, it's basically the ranger version of the photosynthesis

and idk why, but the providence pic on the website made me think of infernum. wonder if the main mod will bring some stuff from it.

[spark kiln]

it won’t

[desert garnet]

calamity wont take anything from infernum

it might add some animation when boss is summoned

or their own profaned biome

[red aspen]

i mean, i personally like regular calamity more. but i don't think of it as something bad to add a bit of this or that if people do like it

[hoary edge]

now I wonder why are you thinking about that 🤔

[desert garnet]

cal devs finally can work on bosses so there will be jump in quality

[hoary edge]

ture

[desert garnet]

you can see in #spoilers the brain rework

[red aspen]

cause i always fight providence on regular hell. i think it's just the craig biome playing tricks on my mind

[hushed hazel]

rogue/summoner combo helmet for forbidden armor

[spark kiln]

that’s just stealing

[red aspen]

maybe a profaned part of craig?

[spark kiln]

infernum and calamity aren’t made by the same people they can’t just “take” stuff

?

[red aspen]

im not talking about infernum

[hoary edge]

oh

[spark kiln]

what’s wrong with talking about infernum

[red aspen]

and i understand it. i won't bring it up more

[spark kiln]

who is craig

[red aspen]

crag. brimstone crag

[spark kiln]

brimstone craig

[red aspen]

sorry. not native english. that word confuses me sometimes

[hushed hazel]

base cal isn't gonna take things directly from infernum but infernum doesn't have the legal rights to the concept of doing a profaned biome in hell or whatever

[spark kiln]

john calamity’s brother

[spark kiln]

profaned biome isn’t even an original infernum idea

[red aspen]

i mean, i don't see the two mods as oponents? i would guess it could be friendly done to improve both?

but i'll leave this topic be.

[hasty tangle]

theyre not enemies

theyre just independent

[spark kiln]

infernum isn’t getting updates so there’s no “improving both”

just cal

but the profaned biome idea did not originate from infernum

that’s always been a planned calamity thing

[red aspen]

one of the reasons i thought maybe cal would get some shit inside it from them. maybe to let it live on and having some aspects people likes from it plus the stuff from regular calamity that people also like?

that's why i said the first thing in the first place. but its allright

it was just a confusion from myself cause the color of the biome made me think of a different hell.

[spark kiln]

calamity is its own mod it doesn’t need to borrow from infernum

[pseudo vector]

ngl i took the providence screenshot in the crags because i thought it’d look nice

there’s nothing deep about it

[red aspen]

wow. cd music. love ur stuff.

[frail owl]

hi there cdmusic

[spark kiln]

does provi still have the hallowed hell stuff

[pseudo vector]

other than the fact providence is getting a visual touch up in brainstorm thanks to ennway

[frail owl]

i still have tantalizing nightmares of your zard y running swords dance

[pseudo vector]

uhhhhh i don’t really know tbh

[red aspen]

it was just an innocent thought of mine. i dont spend too much time on discord so im clueless about the two mods relationships. but i'll stfu

[hasty tangle]

pretty sure provi's biome drop system is dying

[frail owl]

a daunting prospect i cannot tolerate

hi there gp

[hasty tangle]

hi

[pseudo vector]

i don’t recall whats happening regarding provi drops

memory kind of borked

also wsg gp lol

[hasty tangle]

I know that it was being changed for sso, but since this update is about splitting all the non sunken sea changes into its own update, that the provi drop changes will be there too

[hasty tangle]

[pseudo vector]

yeah

[frail owl]

sorry for half rendering your new episode of cal cast outdated lmao

hey eh cd

[pseudo vector]

hi

[frail owl]

i have a pretty superfluous question

[spark kiln]

what’s happening to the attacks then

[frail owl]

how do you feel about birmingham?

[spark kiln]

is the crystal attack just gone or being added to the normal fight

[pseudo vector]

https://tenor.com/view/vergil675-gif-2877674803769001259

[hasty tangle]

that means we get to make another one

and besides, most of what we said still applies, its just not for sso

[pseudo vector]

you should have me on at some point lmao

jkjk

[frail owl]

calcast could do with a british voice

[hasty tangle]

scheduling is kind of a nightmare though

it was already tough with bronze being in alaska

[frail owl]

alaska?

wuh?

[hasty tangle]

?

[spark kiln]

user discsovers other places

[hasty tangle]

do you not know what alaska is

[frail owl]

yes

i know what that place is

[gloomy grove]

user discovers people live in alaska

[frail owl]

real

[spark kiln]

what was that reaction about

[frail owl]

oh well i'm also perplexed by my own reaction there

probably an incongruous decision to convey it like that

[wise bolt]

you know i'm right. you just cant stand my undisputed swagger

[high scaffold]

Brainstorm

[wide nova]

i dispute it

[wise bolt]

aw man :(

[wide nova]

har har har

[dense sundial]

will 2.1 have any whip changes in it? or is that being saved for a great summoner rebalance another time

[dusk bronze]

2.1 has nothing
2.2 adds one (1) whip

[dusty tinsel]

2.1 is never releasing sorry I cancelled it

[hollow harness]

I think whip changes are going to be after

[dusty tinsel]

Kiri was being too much of a menace to society for me to allow 2.1

[dusk bronze]

[dusty tinsel]

Calamity saved

[high scaffold]

We are going to storm our brains so hard when 2.1 releases

[grave geyser]

doze was talking about reverting whips to flat tags in dev version, dont know if its 2.1 or not

[high scaffold]

Flat modifier is very reliant on updating whips as progression goes

So probably better to leave multiplier untill new whips

[pulsar cobalt]

cnidarian is getting whip tags, some whips are being returned to additive, firecracker explosions count as crits now

uhhh

idk wat else

doze was talking about it here

[dull heart]

apolgy for bad english
where were u wen whip stacking die
i was at house eating dorito when phone ring
"whip stacking is kil"
"no"

(whip stacking is dead and summon tags all rebalanced)

[high scaffold]

Me when my summon deals 500 base damage but the highest flat tag is 20

So only the largest tag?

[dull heart]

kalei also does 10% crit

[dull heart]

most recently applied tag

[high scaffold]

[high scaffold]

Morning star is 12%

[rancid pagoda]

who can I thank for this

[grave geyser]

I would say this is a major change but I think most people thought stacking died years ago

[spark kiln]

they haven’t killed whip stacking yet?

[grave geyser]

nope!

[dusk bronze]

no

[high scaffold]

Id be fine with this if it was multiplier/flat boost

[lapis oak]

whip stacking more like carpal tunnel stacking

[high scaffold]

Whip stacking to boost whips themself

1 dark harvest hit every few seconds to boost dps of kale

[fathom girder]

the day whip only calamity becomes possible is the day I rejoice

[amber furnace]

its possible rn

[fathom girder]

I'm not using kalei against post ml

by possible I mean subclass

like true melee

something you can just do

and it works

kinda

not "I'm gonna spend 30 minutes on scal"

aka I can't wait for the cal whips lul

[stuck kite]

i think legendary misinfo telephone collectively gaslit half the community into already thinking whip tag is out of current patch

it would have been awesome if there was no big perpetrator to spawn the biggest community confusion campaign about whips ever

the 🐘 :

[fathom girder]

I'm gonna always think it's mura

is it mura

[grave geyser]

I wonder who this could be refering to

[lapis oak]

jumpscare

[pulsar cobalt]

no

[high scaffold]

I want to learn pixel art

To make resprites for calamity

[final pine]

mirror blade looks amazing what the hell

[high scaffold]

Elemental Quiver looks resprite'able

I wonder if quiver will be separated from deadshot brooch

And if brooch will receive any other upgrades

[dusk bronze]

hopefully

[high scaffold]

Honestly elemental quiver should require either molten quiver or regular one plus magma stone

But idk about putrid scent

Does calamity allow to swap it with flesh knuckles?

Cuz if yes wont be an access issue if was added in craft but idk

[pulsar cobalt]

yea

tinkerers workshop + graveyard

can also make an artificial opposite evil with evil island or dryad in graveyard to get seeds or steampunker in graveyard for solution

[dull heart]

it's crit and flat

like vanilla

[dense sundial]

Waow!

[dull heart]

adding tag multipliers was stupid when vanilla literally has crit for that purpose

[grave geyser]

I mean a multiplier allows it to be a number that isnt 1x or 2x if we ignore defense

[fathom girder]

I say work with one variable at a time

whips can be tweaked with extra nonsense later if need be

[high scaffold]

Honestly, just a what if, what if late game ranger accessories were following logic similar to wings and shroomite armor

Nevermind thats so stupid

[fathom girder]

it would be interesting for minmaxing ig

[high scaffold]

I wanted to make it so specialized ranger subclass accessory cant be used together with generalist accessory but then remember that all classes mix

But elemental quiver should not be a generalist accessory with a side of bows

It should give dmg bonus similar to generalist but with additional bow only bonuses

And then generalist would be something like deadshot upgrade with extras

[grave geyser]

old equiver...

[fathom girder]

the way you talk about these things amuses me

[grave geyser]

who

[fathom girder]

it's never "I think" or "in my opinion" it's always "It MUST" or "should not"

nesegx

[grave geyser]

ah

[fathom girder]

I just find it funny

everything is definitive and anything not fitting to his whims is wrong

[grave geyser]

I LOVE all my weapons being mini elemental lances

[spark kiln]

it was fire

[high scaffold]

The issues is that most of the gimmicks are in ammo so cant realy come up with quirks that are both fun and useful

[spark kiln]

u don’t need to say in my opinion every time you say something

[high scaffold]

Some neurodivergency shi probably idk

[spark kiln]

it’s already implied in the statement

by the fact that objective opinions don’t exist

[fathom girder]

ok

I didn't come here for semantics

nesegx just speaks like a dev and it's funny

[high scaffold]

And also Im making my own imaginary calamity in my head

[fathom girder]

calamity overhaul

TWO

[high scaffold]

Step 1, make your own calamity, step 2, share it with devs, step 3, if devs dont like your calamity you can make your own addon

[spark kiln]

step 3.5 learn modding

[dusk bronze]

step 4, make addon so good you become dev

(doze)

[gloomy grove]

septillionth calamity addon to the bin

[high scaffold]

I need to google "how to pixelart"

To learn to do, well, you can guess, pixelart

[spark kiln]

you don’t need to learn pixel art, you can just use ai!

[vocal kelp]

what if instead of calamity mod it was calamity pod

[high scaffold]

You want to go to the other 28 not found?

[spark kiln]

idk what that means

[high scaffold]

People disappearing into thin air after suggesting to use ai

For legal reasons I have to say that its a joke

[solar hare]

❓

[orchid finch]

who the hell let you cook

it's like that one "kill 7 billion people" image but legit, do not joke about stuff like that, like it's very demotivating

"you don't need artists when you can generate everything with ai"

[high scaffold]

Ai sucks

[orchid finch]

yes it does

[high scaffold]

What it produces cannot be called ai

[gloomy grove]

gen Ai* specifically

[orchid finch]

it's a neural network, not a literal artificial intelligence

[gloomy grove]

LLMs are such a cool concept but people turn the other cheek because gen Ai is more appealing

[orchid finch]

you cannot call something this stupid an "intelligence"

[thorny glacier]

[west isle]

"you dont need to raise your children, just give them a tablet with chat GPT and ur done!"

[high scaffold]

Would be funny if wasnt real

[hidden ridge]

“Who needs critical thinking skills when you could just @grok?”

[spark kiln]

no buts

[arctic cliff]

who needs to troll elon musk when you could just @grok?

[spark kiln]

you just “kill 7 billion people”’d

[spark kiln]

yo ur cooking

[west isle]

"kill 7 billion gods" - Yharim

[high scaffold]

Grok, who is the best at [bad stuff]?

[orchid finch]

Grzzzz grzzz your result is: Elon Musk

[high scaffold]

Today Im watching a guide on pixel art and respriting elemental quiver

[orchid finch]

That's the spirit

[high scaffold]

I have an idea how to apply that nature inspired wood like design

With some glowing leafs to the side and a glowing trim

[fathom girder]

my big tip for art in general is learning how to reference things

[wide nova]

referencing is literally the only reason why i can create art

i can not do that brain-2-paper thing yet

[fathom girder]

It's an important skill, as it lets you directly see and understand what things look like

how they shade

[high scaffold]

2 design version, with and without arrows because in game sprite doesnt have them for some reason

[grave geyser]

how they WHO?

[fathom girder]

say that again...

[fathom girder]

Generally I make a rough image of what's in my head, and then I refine according to a reference

that way it creates a unique image that still follows the rules, at least for me

[high scaffold]

1st step, rough blob of a few colors
2nd step, edges and borders
3rd step, details
4th step, render

Art summarised

In 4 steps

[fathom girder]

my initial shapes are monochrome, though I don't think that's exactly ideal lul

especially not with more complicated sprites- I'm used to smaller canvases for stuff like starbound

[high scaffold]

Modern elemental designs seem to not have more then 3 main colors

In the glowing elemental parts

[fathom girder]

Aren't those due to be completely remade to not be "elemental" or whatever

I don't remember exactly what the devs plan to do with em

[high scaffold]

They are still somewhat elemental (ark of the elements) but also going for more general direction in it (superradiant slaughterer)

More like global natural forces

Attention to natural

As all designs we seen have a kind of wooden design for frames and holding parts

And some leafs here and the occasionally

I remembered that elemental quiver is gonna get renamed

To Planebreaker's pouch

[spark kiln]

wtf is a planebreaker

[high scaffold]

Read the message above planebreaker

[spark kiln]

i’m calling the name stupid

[high scaffold]

Theres a plane of something and you break it

[spark kiln]

elemental quiver is a much better name than planebreakers pouch

[surreal glacier]

[amber egret]

what on earth kinda name is that

[surreal glacier]

Planebreaker's Pouch is just saying shit 😭 ✌️

[amber egret]

that just seriously feels like they needed to rename it

[spark kiln]

srsly

[amber egret]

just call it omniquiver or something Planebreaker's Pouch is too much

[high scaffold]

Elemental spear be called vanishing point

[surreal glacier]

just add a t and it becomes Planetbreaker's Pouch

[amber egret]

see thats pretty good

[surreal glacier]

still dumb but better

[high scaffold]

Plane for plane of reality

[amber egret]

planebreaker implies its gonna be doing insane things when its prob wont

[surreal glacier]

I like the ___ Quiver names cause it stays in line with the original accessory but maybe thats just me idk

[surreal glacier]

15% ranged damage 😩

[spark kiln]

elemental quiver goes fucking hard

[high scaffold]

+20% arrow speed

[surreal glacier]

if they dont like the elemental part then just change it to something else

Cosmic Quiver, Celestial Quiver, etc

[spark kiln]

i don’t even know why they’re allergic to the whole elemental thing

it’s cool

[surreal glacier]

I honestly can't complain though cause old AotC getting revived in the form of Orderbringer is all I need 🙏

Idec if its trash I'm so nostalgic for that weapon alone

[high scaffold]

"Elemental mix" can you tell that its a deadly debuff and not a smoothy?

[surreal glacier]

Feel like that's "mix" making it sound a little flat

[spark kiln]

just call it elemental storm or something

Planebreaker’s mix

[high scaffold]

Mix makes it sound like a cocktail

They are also changing Elemental Axe into Legion of Celestia

A bit edgy, but fine

[naive ice]

I’d honestly drink that

[spark kiln]

that name kinda sucks too

[spark kiln]

like wtf is celestia

[high scaffold]

Planetary annihilation is kinda the most not pretty weapon of the entire line

[spark kiln]

elemental axe tells you what the weapon is

[high scaffold]

Stars and shi

[spark kiln]

if you were talking about some legion of celestia i’d be thinking that’s a new event

fuck kinda weapon name is that

[high scaffold]

Read more books, watch more movies idk

[naive ice]

https://tenor.com/view/princess-celestia-mlp-my-little-pony-excited-gif-6666135806781539944

Fuck

[hollow harness]

celestia as in the celestia from mlp obviously

[spark kiln]

💀

[high scaffold]

Celestia is the game Celeste obv

[hollow harness]

celeste as in translating sky blue to spanish?

[high scaffold]

Elemental ray becomes Nucleosynthesis

[spark kiln]

that one’s fine

[grave geyser]

I mean that one builds off photosynthesis

[high scaffold]

Nuclei mean core synthesis means create

[grave geyser]

yes but your average player isnt thinking that

they're just thinking "oh photo -> nucleo ok"

[high scaffold]

Photo means light btw

[hollow harness]

making an etymology mod so players can get a grasp of how things are named I think

[dense sundial]

Legion (of minions) of Celestia (stars/cosmos)

[spark kiln]

no way

[dense sundial]

I don’t think that’s a reach

[spark kiln]

it doesn’t sound like a weapon name

planebreakers pouch is just bad though

[high scaffold]

Only elemental gauntlet will be not renamed in bs

[spark kiln]

it falls so flat

[high scaffold]

Out of all elemental line ofc

[upper hatch]

Wait, the 2.1 brainstorm said that "This update will not include the Sunken Sea Overhaul, which will come later as part of a separate update. "

So, 2.1 won't be SSO

[vivid hemlock]

2.2 is sso

[upper hatch]

Very interesting

[hollow harness]

It says right there

[dense sundial]

Well I wouldn’t say Elemental Axe “goes hard” or such, it’s kinda just There

[spark kiln]

at least it’s to the point

[hollow harness]

elemental axe staff

[upper hatch]

2.2 is SSO part 1 or just SSO without splitting?

[spark kiln]

never said it goes hard either

[surreal glacier]

honestly maybe a hot take but i could care less 😭

[vivid hemlock]

part 1

[spark kiln]

you couldn’t care less

not could

[upper hatch]

couldn't care less

[hollow harness]

i mean its fine it goes along with vanilla item naming for summon staffs which is fine

[surreal glacier]

Sunken Sea getting overhauled is meh to me I care wayyyyyyyyy more about the weapon/boss reworks

[surreal glacier]

ig

[high scaffold]

You will no longer be allowed to devolve while playing calamity mod

[dense sundial]

Do you not want biomes to be interesting and relevant and worth interacting with?

[upper hatch]

Also I initially got confused because I forgot what the current version of Cal is and thought that SSO will be 2.0 💀

[dense sundial]

Cal doesn’t really have biome content to speak of as it is

[hollow harness]

cal players explore the biome in 2 minutes with their tile piercing weapons and extra stats

[surreal glacier]

Its cool but idk man I care about the weapons and the boss fights more than the Sunken Sea

[dense sundial]

There’s already way too much content on the combat side

[surreal glacier]

this is true

[hollow harness]

the flashiness of weapons attract the playerbase more

[high scaffold]

On calamity 2.1 you will no longer be allowed to boss rush

And will have to explore and build

And fish

[hollow harness]

its funny because as soon as you fight DS you get the rogue weapon and its one of the strongest tools for exploration

[pulsar cobalt]

you can still boss rush you just

wouldnt have a lot of content

[dense sundial]

My awesome early prehardmode phasing-piercing-homing weapon

[pulsar cobalt]

o wait u said 2.1

[hollow harness]

it deals like small amounts of damage yet it goes through tiles and stuff its insane how early you get these kinds of weapons

[pulsar cobalt]

2.1 isnt changing jackshit for rushing from what i know

[high scaffold]

Denormalize boss rushing

[dense sundial]

QoL rollbacks?

[terse dew]

speedrunners will need new routes

[grave geyser]

removing a bunch of qol stuff

like vanilla item recipies

[dense sundial]

Assuming it really is everything other than the sunken sea, it should include a ton of recipe nerfs and the Cosmolight line update and so forth

[pulsar cobalt]

im pretty sure most qol rollbacks will still have some equivalent of getting the thing quickly

like ankh components having buffed rates + zerg

[high scaffold]

I heard there will be

[pulsar cobalt]

still existing.

[pseudo vector]

there's some QoL rollbacks that will be happening, not major ones but ones we didn't deem necessary or we felt were overbearing

[high scaffold]

Wizard no longer selling RoD

[pseudo vector]

also SSO will probably end up being 2.2

[high scaffold]

Hopefully

[pseudo vector]

but that might be up to what we decide to do once brainstorm is out

[hasty hawk]

it is confirmed to be 2.2

Ozz said it the other day

[pseudo vector]

ah

[hasty hawk]

the day the newsletter dropped

[pseudo vector]

if we decide to do another intermediary update that might be smth like 2.1.5 or smth idk

[stuck kite]

we're gonna definitely have to be busy with a hotfix or 2 or 3

[pseudo vector]

oh for sure lol

[vocal kelp]

put the update in the bag as they say,

[high scaffold]

Sand bag

[pseudo vector]

regardless of how much bugfixing we do the public will always find more than we do

[stuck kite]

but then it is indeed

2.2.... 👀

[vocal kelp]

what if instead it was the bag you put in the update

[hollow harness]

2.2 like the GD update?

[stuck kite]

check steam etc

[pseudo vector]

is SSO our 2.2

in some way

except we won't take 7 years like 2.2 did

[west isle]

Cuz we r gonna have to wait longer 🔥

[vocal kelp]

those who, those who, knows who those

crows who mow

[hollow harness]

crows who mow

[grave geyser]

I mean
we're already at at least 5 since sso was first conceived

[lyric trellis]

Taken 7 years (from when Sunken Sea was added in late 2018)

[hasty hawk]

crows who mow

[stuck kite]

2.2 takes 9 years and it secretly comes with the distortion, aerie, and yharim

that would be the equivalent of fucking gd 2.2

[pseudo vector]

we just add everything we planned and scope creep everything to shit

[hasty hawk]

like thats gonna happen, y’all gonna go fucking nuts

[west isle]

Also this is compleatly unrelated to the discussion but can I ask what was the point of removing meteorite bars from gold chests near the underworld in 2.0.7?

[stuck kite]

its the removal of the removal of

[dense sundial]

That got reverted I think

[grave geyser]

"secretly" as if that shit would last more than like a month without getting leaked

[lyric trellis]

Nobody would ever leak things

[grave geyser]

never

[hasty hawk]

no progression breaks i think (even tho Dead Man’s chests had hallowed arrows)

The fault lies with Fabsol

[hollow harness]

[pseudo vector]

meteorite bars are already renewable thanks to how meteors function anyways

[stuck kite]

and when it was removed the idea was just one guy going "wait thats not intended!"

[vocal kelp]

just put the vanilla in the bag

[stuck kite]

and then we realised we dont care

so it was reverted

[grave geyser]

progression breaks are cool and awesome

[pseudo vector]

i mean we kept brainstorm a secret throughout the entirety of december until the newsletter revealed it

[stuck kite]

i didnt even know someone did that

[west isle]

If that's so then why let people get molten pre boss through reaver shark?

[vocal kelp]

okay but like yharim would leak frame one its yahrim

[dense sundial]

Progression breaks are cool when they either are unrealistically tedious (not Reaver Shark buff) or an actual challenge (not Reaver Shark buff)

[hasty hawk]

I dont think anything that would be scathing for the team to be leaked exists rn (since it was leaked (Yharon resprite) or teased already)

[vocal kelp]

like let's all be for real

[pseudo vector]

lowkey tho keeping brainstorm quiet while everyone else outside of dev and auric patrons was wondering what was going on was mildly funny

[fathom girder]

it's been in the plans for an entire month wtf

[hasty hawk]

thats being reverted too

[mystic eagle]

unless they're incredibly easy to perform with alot of rewards.

[west isle]

Oh rly?

I thought they were just gonna remove the angler dropping the golden rod

[pseudo vector]

we decided on brainstorm being a thing in early december

[dense sundial]

Goog…

[fathom girder]

gahdayum

[hasty hawk]

iirc

[fathom girder]

impressive that it was kept under wraps for so long

[vocal kelp]

just let big redigit decide what progression skips are acceptable and what skips arent acceptable ngl

[stuck kite]

i think the reaver shark buff is just a kneejerk reaction of the same players in 1.4 that called fishing dead after vanilla nerfed it

[hasty hawk]

altho Hell lab and Crags chests have bars too so you can still get those

[stuck kite]

spoilers Its Not

[west isle]

The only bad thing Abt reaver being reverted back to 1.4.4's breaking power is that now low% is gonna be a bigger pain

If that's actually happening that is

[lyric trellis]

Molten already having multiple other more interactive obtainments than a pointless vanilla reversion is good

[grave geyser]

yeah but thats just a reoganizing of content most people were already aware of

very different from putting the equivilent of 4 updates worth of content in a single one

[dense sundial]

Will that be saved for 2.2 since SSO changes a lot of other important fishing stuff or no

[pseudo vector]

during that time we worked on setting up the website and working on the newsletter and such so
we made sure we were in a good position to reveal the update and explain the change of plans

[stuck kite]

most of the fishing changes are rolled out by 2.1 i think

[grave geyser]

we still have rox

[stuck kite]

the minigames are...

[hasty hawk]

even kept it a secret from some devs apparently

[pulsar cobalt]

theres already enough hellstone bars from other sources to get more hellstone

[pseudo vector]

i mean the devs who didn't know just weren't active at the time

[west isle]

Is it enough for like a molten pick?

[misty wren]

yeah rox is a bit more important to low% than molten

[pseudo vector]

trust me we spent a lot of hours making sure we were in a position where we could readily reveal the update and show stuff that was coming lol

[pulsar cobalt]

yes that is wat it means to get more hellstone

[west isle]

Not rly

[vocal kelp]

itd be funny if they killled rox but like unintentionally

[pulsar cobalt]

rox is the entire reason low% can be so low

[west isle]

Huh cool

[west isle]

No?

[hasty hawk]

itd be funny if they killled rox but like unintentionally

[mystic eagle]

❌

[pseudo vector]

i think the montage on the website has the most reveals of any spoiler in a hot minute from what i can tell

[stuck kite]

given the very existence of brainstorm is the result of a dev ping vote

[west isle]

I'm literally doing a low% right now and I haven't had to use rox at any point

[hasty hawk]

pretty sure there were no plans for that before I left

[stuck kite]

i think you mightve completely glossed it if youre a dev and didnt know

[mystic eagle]

Low% has 2 routes WoF or Destroyer. Those lead into the exact same rest

[west isle]

The material it gives for low% aren't useful

[grave geyser]

molten was never required for low% anyway ultimately

[west isle]

U can skip wof

[grave geyser]

yes

thats what
she said

[terse dew]

I saw the vote and I didn't vote 😈

[hasty hawk]

anyways, lets wait and see what ends up being in Brainstorm

[west isle]

Thanks to the 2.0.7 change that let's u craft auric ore from souls

[misty wren]

yeah wofless is another low% route

[mystic eagle]

Read the message again

[thorny fjord]

And that one does need rox

[pseudo vector]

the decision was made over the course of a couple days of discussion and we ended up making the choice to make brainstorm a thing after said vote

brainstorm as a name was decided within the first week or so

[stuck kite]

something about americans and voting

[west isle]

Well I'm not familiar with the destroyer route can u tell me which bosses u need to kill on it

[pseudo vector]

ozz came up with it and it stuck lol

[terse dew]

merkalto always votes on election day

and not on election day too

[mystic eagle]

Said in the same message

[grave geyser]

merkalto commits voter fraud

[stuck kite]

1 vote to rig all elections

[hasty hawk]

And the discussion prob happened after I left, but at least stuff is now in order for Caldev and hope its smooth sailing from now on

[west isle]

U just said that it kills destroyer unless literally everything else is the same
And again, u can literally just skip wof and do cultist as ur 1st boss

[pulsar cobalt]

ok well next update ull need rox for low% because crates giving hm ores will actually be fixed

[pseudo vector]

like that one smiling friends clip

[mystic eagle]

For low%, both WoF and Destroyer lead into the exact same following 8 bosses

[west isle]

That's alr be fixed

[pulsar cobalt]

can still get bars

[mystic eagle]

That's Infernum, not Calamity

[grave geyser]

cultist first is only possible on infernum

[pseudo vector]

glep's singular vote making mr frog win the presidential election lol

[west isle]

Oh yeah I forgot that's an infernum change

😭

[terse dew]

that electoral map was insane

😟

[hasty hawk]

or just killing WoF since you could bomb hellstone and then mine cobalt from there

[pulsar cobalt]

you need t2 ores not t1

[boreal edge]

Calamity Mod spoiler: I spent half an hour yesterday trying to figure out why the Roxcalibur Shrine wasn't generating
Turns out it actually was generating, but the debug message saying it didn't generate would always print

[hasty hawk]

Ah right

need that anvil

[pulsar cobalt]

🔥
