how are you getting the ammo for that, pray tell

main falcon
#

Rock

vestal osprey
#

There is one

I dont give a shit what the game catogorizes it as, the pumpler is a launcher at heart

buoyant pulsar
#

grenades, specific block or item types, ammoless, etc etc etc

main falcon
#

Boulders

buoyant pulsar
#

or just make ur own calamity homegrown scrap rocket for prehardmode that is scaled less

main falcon
#

Goliath's sling, uses boulders as ammo

vestal osprey
#

There could be more rocket types

cobalt wharf
#

no phm launcher -> ask for phm launcher -> it canโ€™t actually be a launcher -> get a cool thing that uses pumpkins or some shit as ammo -> still no phm launcher -> loop

vestal osprey
#

Right now the rocket ammo progression is a damn line

main falcon
#

Because it's not progresion

#

It's options

vestal osprey
#

Not in vanilla

#

But in calamity, recipes are changed. Mini nukes require laminate, cluster rockets are post golem. And rocket type 1 and 2 can be gotten before plantera

cobalt wharf
lyric trellis
#

Too broke for the better rockets sorry

#

Mini-nukes are post-ml in cal thatโ€™s enough progression, also I think the mech tier recipe is rocket 1s so thereโ€™s the real progression

buoyant pulsar
#

update deployed

fathom girder
#

this isn't calamity suggestion talk.....

buoyant pulsar
#

there

#

hope this helps

hollow harness
#

rocket type in pre-hm,,, grenades

versed heart
main falcon
#

Launches you

hollow harness
#

there are three true weapon ranger type weapons

#

bullets, arrows, anything else

fallen flame
#

So personally I would be down for Calamity to add more options pre-plantera, though prehardmode might be a bit of a tough sell

fierce hearth
#

we deserve a wulfrum nailbomb launcher tho

#

with a hellstone upgrade that superheats the nails

vestal osprey
#

Imagine getting a diverse set of rockets in general

fierce hearth
#

I feel like the design of launchers being so ammo agnostic makes a wide variety make less sense, doubly so with how few launchers there are compared to guns and bows

vestal osprey
#

Post moon lord ammo really needs more

#

Right now its just 3 arrows and 3 bullets

wispy stratus
#

Any news on update release time?

misty wren
#

no

#

sometime next month

Where can I find a list for all known changes coming in brainstorm?

#

Thank you

blazing field

brainstorm for $5||5||

|| Due to the recent inflation of the value of Calamity Mod Update the price had to be increased to account for the socioeconomical factor. We hope you understand this. ||

Wdym by the recent inflation of the value of the calamity mod update

#

hi

ebon valve
#

Is anyone else kind of disincentivized to start a new world on calamity because 1.4.5 stuff and the biome revamps aren't out yet?

orchid finch
#

1.4.5 will not affect Calamity

ebon valve
orchid finch
#

Yes

fathom girder
#

Tmod won't update for 1.4.5 for months

#

don't worry about it

orchid finch
#

Although do be aware a Calamity update is coming soon and it'll have some worldgen things

ebon valve
#

how soon is soon ๐Ÿ™‚

fathom girder
#

before march

ebon valve
#

ah, well I guess I can wait 3 more days for 1.4.5 and just replay through that

orchid finch
#

Yeah

#

You'll have plenty things to do

rich ginkgo
#

when is 1.4.5? before january 28th

fathom girder
#

After january

orchid finch
#

That's not February

#

But definitely before March

rich ginkgo
#

maybe youโ€™re february

#

ever thought of that

orchid finch
#

Maybe the true February was friends we made along the way...

wide wadi
orchid finch
#

Wdym what about the legendary "What A Calamity" update

wide wadi
orchid finch
#

Your problem

solar hare
#

the last actual update was in May 2024 that's just over a year and a half

rich ginkgo
#

what no clam does to a update ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚

fathom girder
#

Damn the lack of clams

split ginkgo
#

I wait patiently and with respect than people complaining that "ITS BEEN FUCKING YEARS"

rich ginkgo

lets get this man a nobel peace prize along with a round of applause

vestal osprey
vernal quarry
wise bolt
#

its been three years wonderful

vernal quarry
#

oh my god

wise bolt
#

to be fair. lotta shit happened

vernal quarry
#

true

#

but still... three years?

wise bolt
#

yeah

dusk bronze
#

3 years ago was january 2023, before from the ashes

vernal quarry
#

i dont know how to feel about that. like just in general too.

dusk bronze
#

bountiful harvest was may 2024

rich ginkgo
#

yeah that's not even correct lmao

#

it's been less than 3 years

vernal quarry
#

either way im kinda having a moment, regardless of when it actually updated.

lapis oak
#

It's been close to 2 years

rich ginkgo
#

barely even been a year and a half

dusk bronze
#

1 year and 7 months

wise bolt
#

oh- my bad, well sunken sea's been in the works for three years last i recall anyway

dusk bronze
#

i think

lapis oak
#

SSO has been in work since 2020

dusk bronze
#

the fish mines stretch beyond to infinity

dusk bronze
#

that's when planning started probably

lapis oak
#

Only uncs eould know

rich ginkgo
#

if they were all consistently working on sso daily it'd be done within under a year

#

unless the scope creep really is THAT bad

dusk bronze
#

unfortunately devs have actual jobs

rich ginkgo
#

yeahh

#

these people have lives so not surprising at all it's been a long time since development first started

wise bolt
#

i have to start uni next month XD

rich ginkgo
#

yharim in 10 years is funny but it gets funnier when you realize that isnt far from the truth

#

i might even have kids by the time yharim is out

dusk bronze
#

closer to 5 than 10 imo

lapis oak
#

SSO has been in work since 2016

dusk bronze
rich ginkgo
#

id say it's more inbetween

lapis oak
#

Only hags would know

rich ginkgo
#

like around 7.5

#

7.5 assuming all goes well with no bumps in the road

dusk bronze
#

is there anyone still active here that was around in 2016

#

did the server even exist

#

i showed up in 2021 and i feel like i've been here forever

dry whale
#

old

lapis oak
#

Troll face died so Calamity could be born

dry whale
#

wait I have been here for over a year...

#

I feel old...

dusk bronze
#

girl you're a newgen

split ginkgo
#

im fuckin old enough to know that yharim once was "lord" in his name before the rewrite

dry whale
#

it feels like months ok

lapis oak
split ginkgo
#

or lives in lihzhard temple

#

times change

wide nova
#

i was around 2018/19 for a brief moment then died till 2023/4

rich ginkgo
#

yeah i was the coffin

#

can confirm

dry whale
dusk bronze
wide nova
#

ee core

dusk bronze
#

like builders do with teleporters sorta

#

which mod is that

lapis oak
dry whale
#

you can call me Little Goblin Thing

dry whale
lapis oak
#

Good one

dusk bronze
split ginkgo
#

honestly though

lapis oak
#

When I just joined I put a gun on Merk's head

split ginkgo
#

were superbosses really necessary

lapis oak
#

Didn't get banned tho just a little tap on the wrist

split ginkgo
#

feels like overkill and not worth it

dusk bronze
#

old scal

lapis oak
#

AEW

dry whale
#

wan't jared considered a superboss at some point

split ginkgo
#

yes

dusk bronze
#

was never an actual boss iirc

wide nova
#

id consider scal and exos superbosses

split ginkgo
#

good ol supreme calamitas

#

but soul artifact bosses?

#

lmao

dusk bronze
wide nova
#

yharon is cal final boss in my eyes 5ever

dusk bronze
#

and are usually optional

dusk bronze
#

yeah those uh

#

those were

#

uh

wide nova
#

the term superboss can be used in multiple different contexts

pseudo vector
dry whale
#

Scal has super powers, she is a boss

#

superboss

dusk bronze
dry whale
#

and draedon has super technology and is a boss

#

again, superboss

rich ginkgo
#

leviathan is super sized so it's a superboss too

#

and of course i cant forget the super failure being superboss cal clone

dry whale
#

no thats a supboss, anahita isn't super so it gets half a super

rich ginkgo
#

and then there's the super mediocre (super)boss ravager

wide nova
#

leegrid canon when

lapis oak
#

Mediocre is crazy

dry whale
#

tomorrow

tribal isle
#

Ravager js super lame so itโ€™s a superboss

rich ginkgo
#

yeah you get it

dusk bronze
dry whale
#

leegrid fodder fr

split ginkgo
#

ravager having golem's ai is crazy

dry whale
#

YOU have golem ai

rich ginkgo
#

slime god super mid biome mimic ai

rustic kernel
#

Slime God can be somewhat compared to Queen Slime

#

You can just be killed by minions and not actual boss

tribal isle
#

And related by lore

dusk bronze
#

they're technically the same character in lore

#

sorta

tribal isle
rustic kernel
#

Honestly, I can consider Exo Mechs a super boss, as for me, they are harder than SCal in general.

#

And if to remember earier days of Calamity, Providence felt more of a roadblock than most of the other bosses. Ofc, DoG being the other one.

split ginkgo
#

old DoG

#

yeah

#

right

rich ginkgo
#

i think the term super boss is shit in general

#

way too broad

split ginkgo
#

good old dog with the freakin sentinels

#

or something

rich ginkgo
#

primordial wyrm is what id consider to be a post game challenge, like an epilogue boss

tribal isle
#

The only real superboss is astrageldon

rich ginkgo
#

what's so super about it? it's just really tanky??

#

that sounds dumb to me

split ginkgo
#

only thing primordial wyrm drops is the totalbiscuit gun

#

kek

#

thats just

tribal isle
split ginkgo
#

it?

rustic kernel
#

Halibut Cannon was a fun weapon early on release.

#

(Considering it scaled through world states)

#

But cheaty and required quite some grinding to get.

rich ginkgo
#

supreme calamitas is very super in many aspects

#

same with exo mechs

#

like i said it's just a bad term because super can describe a lot of things

#

you can say leviathan is a super boss because of its super size

rustic kernel
#

While SCal is decently hard, yeah, she doesn't require a ton of space to fight

#

While EXO mechs pretty much need the same arena as for DoG, or even bigger

#

(But considering you fought DoG earlier, you would already have one)

#

Never considered Leviathan as hard boss. Anahita gave much more troubles honestly, with some random hits.

#

As for me, Plaguebringer Goliath is way harder

amber egret
#

PBG is bullshit on a stick

#

Tesla Potion or Die

buoyant pulsar
#

when surge driver is turned into a launcher it should have a dedicated function where it locks onto enemies

#

like not just homes on them or smth like actually locks

#

with a reticle thing or a square over them or smth

amber egret
#

surge driver should be a Car

summer shore
#

Surge driver should be a railgun

hot wadi
#

Or is it still the same ram slop (with a bit of running) boss as I still know it

spark kiln
#

we are not saying ram slop

dusk bronze
#

no major update since may 2024

plush carbon
acoustic oriole
#

is there gonna be any optimization on some of the weapons since they produce so many particles which lags the game a ton

#

also is broken biome sword getting reworked

dusk bronze
#

a large portion of the mod's weapons are being reworked next update

#

with more to surely follow

#

and they mainly utilize vfx instead of dust

acoustic oriole
#

thats great

#

cause dust is the worst thing in terraria known to man

dusk bronze
acoustic oriole
#
  1. it looks ugly on most weapons anyway
  2. it lags so much
acoustic oriole
dusk bronze
#

no

acoustic oriole
#

thats kinda lame, it really deserves a rework

#

its visuals and animations are kinda low quality imo

#

they just seem so weird sometimes

#

ESPECIALLY the jungle attunement

dusk bronze
#

it might get one is eventually
i'm just talking about brainstorm

#

also it's very new for a weapon

acoustic oriole
#

also question is

#

will most reworked swords get swinging animations like that one uelibloom sword

#

terratomere?

hot wadi
#

By the way what are the cosmic guardians again
Are they DoG's summons/the little worms in the fight

acoustic oriole
#

i think its dog's summons on death mode

dusk bronze
acoustic oriole
#

they kinda js follow him by his head

acoustic oriole
dusk bronze
#

yeah
called usestyle1

#

it sucks bad

acoustic oriole
#

where theres no unique vfx, and it doesnt fit for big swords

hot wadi
acoustic oriole
#

uelibloom has vfx accompanying it's slash and an arc-kinda slash

#

also why is ark of the cosmos in the brainstorm chart

#

is it getting reworked

#

and is celestus ever getting a visual update

dusk bronze
#

and galaxia is just retiered

acoustic oriole
gloomy grove
dusk bronze
#

with a completely different color palette

acoustic oriole
#

i didnt mean the sprite i meant its vfx

#

cause its really uncool and laggy as hell

gloomy grove
#

laggy?

dusk bronze
#

i imagine the functionality will be changed at least a bit

acoustic oriole
#

when it hits an enemy

#

it sends like 10 particles in multiple sides

#

that isnt TOO bad when you're not fighting any bosses

#

but on bosses it just lags the game a ton

gloomy grove
#

i think thats just a case by case basis

dusk bronze
#

you should see svantechnical on dog clueless

gloomy grove
gloomy grove
#

both svantechnical and infinity are pretty fun ones

dusk bronze
#

or new earth on bossrush eow

#

that one's hilarious

acoustic oriole
#

im gonna crash out if 1.4.5 doesnt have an option to disable combat text

dusk bronze
#

what combat text

acoustic oriole
#

when you hit enemies it shows how much damage you deal

gloomy grove
dusk bronze
#

oh damage numbers

acoustic oriole
#

and since its particles (i think)

#

it lags a TON on worms

gloomy grove
dusk bronze
#

what's ur setup

acoustic oriole
polar tide
#

dude i think thats a you problem if your computer cant even handle the numbers that pop up when you hit enemies

gloomy grove
#

i would agree on dust spam but damage numbers are such a non-issue

#

and from what ive been hearing from you, i think its a hardware problem not being able to keep up

acoustic oriole
#

i got like 8 fps cause there was like 50 particle effects from weapons and 60 combat numbers at a time

gloomy grove
#

mmm

dusk bronze
#

yeah that should be fine

acoustic oriole
gloomy grove
#

yeah thats definitely hardware limitations

acoustic oriole
#

or maybe its just my pc being stupid

#

i need an upgrade atp bro ๐Ÿ™

polar tide
#

even my shitty little craptop that i first played calamity on didnt struggle because of the fucking damage numbers ๐Ÿ˜ญ

acoustic oriole
#

i am talking about vanilla gang ๐Ÿ™

gloomy grove
polar tide
#

THATS WORSE

dusk bronze
#

because mods

plush carbon
#

You should play wotg

polar tide
#

IF YOUR COMPUTER CANT EVEN HANDLE VANILLA THATS WORSE!!!

acoustic oriole
#

which is why i have like 3 optimization mods to remove dust, combat text, optimize black tiles, motion smoothing, and allat stuff

gloomy grove
#

youre probably overdue on your hardware

#

motion smoothing???

acoustic oriole
gloomy grove
#

what do you mean by motion smoothing

acoustic oriole
#

its a config in one of the opt mods

#

it messes up physics sometimes but does improve performance

gloomy grove
#

which is

acoustic oriole
#

high fps support

gloomy grove
#

if youre gonna say high fps support im gonna tweak out

#

omg

#

youre running high fps support on a pc that cant run nms at 60fps??

dusk bronze
gloomy grove
#

the entire point of that mod is for people that have high refresh rate monitors and letting them be able to run the game higher than 60

acoustic oriole
#

it has some optimization features though ๐Ÿ˜ญ

gloomy grove
#

afaik those barely make a difference(roughly 2-5ms of optimization)

acoustic oriole
#

i guess i'll remove it from my modpack and use frame skip instead

#

i think i was just an idiot cause my fps just went up to 60 on scal

gloomy grove
#

either way the best kind of optimization for the game is to run less mods anyways

#

only so much one core can do at a time

Likely a lot

Well next update probably won't be affected much, but the one which ports to 1.4.5, sure

unless theres another update before SSO

umm yea there is

(i havent been keeping up with calamity much the last year)

Although calamity should add that to all the npcs

#

total spriter annihilation

native thistle
#

sso delayed my another 50 years

hollow harness
#

but if its just one single portrait for every possible interaction then it should be probably be fine

native thistle
hollow harness
#

there might be but idk

#

I can only think of summoner rebalance being delayed since uhhh new 1.4.5 summoner stuff

native thistle
#

wasn't most of the balancing stuff based around stacking?

hollow harness
#

stacking and tag flat/multipliers I think

#

for the latter the deal was like, because in pre-hm the tags are multiplicative they don't affect that much as compared to flat tag

pulsar cobalt
#

not just that

#

low damage/high hit rate minions would also be affected less

hollow harness
#

yea

#

also I think some of the rebalances touches vanilla minion behaviour?

native thistle
#

it would be funny if relogic just balanced summoner themselves in 1.4.5

#

probably not

grave rock
#

vanilla summoner is alr fine

native thistle
#

but i would be funny

hollow harness
#

They might just have done stat changes

#

upcoming starcrasher whip has like, 2 tag damage + an effect

amber furnace
#

do yall think whips were the right choice for a new summoner weapon? or do you think it should have been something else

native thistle
#

here we go again

hollow harness
#

its kinda complex

native thistle
#

whips are 100% a good addition in my eyes

hollow harness
#

previous to whips there was this idea of summoner using mana to empower them or something

grave rock
#

whips are good

native thistle
#

made summoner less boring

hollow harness
#

many floating ideas, yet the best implementation was just balancing summoner on its own with minions

amber furnace
#

pre 1.4 summoner fans were the real ones ngl

grave rock
#

while i wish whip stacking was made an intentionaal mechanic, whips on their own give a lot of complexity to the class

hollow harness
#

which led to uhh 1.3.5 -> 1.4 porting just annihilate any pre-existing concepts of summoner balance

grave rock
#

mid range on a low defense class is cool

hollow harness
#

whips are fine I think

pulsar cobalt
#

heres my opinion on whips

amber furnace
#

I like whips

pulsar cobalt
#

they were an addition to the terraria video game

#

that is all

vestal osprey
#

Cant wait for calamity whips to come in and be balanced only for 1.5 to completly upend the balance on a different class

hollow harness
#

whip stacking is complex to say but oughhhhhh

Here's my opinion of Kiriwhite

as for like different ideas of what could have been instead of whips uhhhh

#

kill you with Ozz

native thistle
hollow harness
#

many floating ideas,

hollow harness
#

I remember when whips were introduced to cal during porting and belladonna staff still had the fucked up low damage spread shot and that just broke the game entirely

misty wren
#

whip stacking is cool and all and i wouldnt be surprised if it was somewhat intentional the issue is what whip stacking entails for summoner as a class overall

i think at some point plaguebringer armor also had like +20 flat damage to summons iirc

hollow harness
#

still pretty cool though

native thistle

#

what the ocean actually needs is loot not related to underwater exploration it makes no sense to explore underwater (which iss like one of the only times ull do so) just to get gear that makes water exploration easier

mmmm, they should add.... a structure biome

something like depths.....

dense sundial
tribal isle
#

It must be peak itโ€™s rainbow

hollow harness
#

yea, now the best reforge for a weapon has a rainbow shader

grave rock
#

even the trident iirc in stats is just a little better than the spear AND ITS main function is underwater exploration

tribal isle
#

Will they add the fargos npcs to items thing to vanilla with the palworld collab

main falcon
#

Maybe it focused in stats that benefits the minions

hollow harness
#

and also stops you from reforging anymore I think unless you kinda force it (??????)

dense sundial
#

as little as you need to interact meaningfully with the abyss, i think it does a pretty good job of exploration balance

hollow harness
#

stats that benefit minions rn are

lapis oak
grave rock
#

i saw minion size get tossed around a bit thatd be cool

hollow harness
#

damage, minion knockback, minion speed (?)

main falcon
hollow harness
#

yea I was trying to express over clicking

minion velocity and acceleration would be pretty neat

I wonder if npc portraits change after you shimmer them

grave rock
#

minion aggro

amber furnace
#

finch staff, slime staff and wand of sparkling should have been craftable items

dense sundial
#

minion size would be neat too, but i strongly suspect the effect would be way too small to ever be worth or even visible

#

like with melee size

#

hollow harness
#

increased size is not noticeable yea

grave rock
#

make melee size bigger!!

You're stealing from Game Freak

whoever made the models doesnt own their work, nintendo does

pulsar cobalt
#

also yea no ur stealing from game freak who are overworked and underpaid

#

๐Ÿ˜ญ

grave rock
#

cuz thats how copyright works

hollow harness
#

and the Pokemon Company

blazing field
#

its not about copyright

#

its about morals

misty wren
#

the person that gave the proof directly stated later that they specifically changed the pal models to look closer to pokemon models

blazing field
#

ur stealing someone elses work

dense sundial
#

i don't support theft regardless of who it's from

#

i think

blazing field
#

it wouldn't be acceptable to do it to random john artist ya find online

#

It shouldn't be acceptable to do it to artists who worked on pokemon either, they're not the company

#

And frankly palworld knows what theyre doing

#

theyre not #based #gamers who are going on an awesome anti corporate move against nintendo

blazing field
#

theyre just lazy and want money lol

#

they specifically designed the game

#

to be as immediately attention-catching as possible by having like

#

OOOO OOO

#

you can hunt ENDANGNERED POKE - i mean PALS

#

oooo you can ENSLAVE THEM AND PUT THEM IN FACTORIES

dense sundial
#

correct me if i'm wrong again, but i recall that the creator said palworld has Guns and Animal Labor in it specifically to make westerners gawk at it

blazing field
#

they did this because the shock value is eyecatching

grave rock
#

my actual thoughts on palworld itself is its just ark survival evolved slop ith pokemon paint

dense sundial
#

-yeah

hollow harness
#

also didn't nintendo patent the creature caching mechanic

blazing field
#

I think they tried to at one point but didnt succeed

vestal osprey
#

Pal world is NOT a Pokรฉmon ripoff...

Its an ark ripoff

hushed hazel
#

to my knowledge the whole reason they made the character designer as wacky and zany as it is was to appeal to western audiences who like making their characters ugly

blazing field
#

But yeah palworld kinda sucks and is using nintendo also sucking as a scapegoat to be shitty and steal from artists

dense sundial
#

all that instead of going after something they actually should (like traced models)
