comet quasher
I like ion blaster it's yummy
Back reading and I like the fact that this is a frankensprite. It’s just 3 eocs merged
Yes this, comet quasher is great
I looove new apoctosis array
six months but its sunken sea overhaul
bro 😭 a meteor still hasnt landed
kill evil1 again
Beat evil 1's ass
get to it yuh
take the precaution of killing evil 1 several times to increase the meteorite payoffs
Yo anyone know any money glitches?
Now you're in the wrong channel.
installing cheat sheet is a pretty good one

Like actually just glazing me to the max. 😭
?
whar
What
Like I talk in 3 different channels and you went to each one
Just tell me I’m in the wrong one
...I did?
It’s a open chat I can talk about what I want to talk about
you don't need to ask in multiple channels
What are you talking about?
also yeah i'm looking at every chat and that didn't happen
I’m only asking in different chat cause literally the only person who would respond and someone telling me it’s modded
i mean if you were in #general-talk you could
but youre not in general
youre in a chat about the calamity mod and discussing its updates
Am I gonna get banned now?
no but youll probably get verbal warned and that just kinda feels bad im gonna be real
Probably not, but people will think you're a lunatic.

Why would I get a verbal warning 😂
I haven’t said anything wrong
i mean if you want me to go through the rules i can tell you rq
rule 7, keep on-topic in channels
Do not be disruptive, etc
man jus ignore them, I'll send u a couple youtube guides in dms
Thank you bro
youtube guides 
maybe ask in the correct chat if you don't want that to happen then 
It doesn’t matter the chat dude
Anyway, about atenizer
It does. That's why there are multiple. Not sure why you're trying to be a nuisance.
yes it does a lot actually
Atenizer summon weapon..
antenizer dev pet when
reskinned stormjaw staff that's just ants
Atenizer pet is pretty good
carny thats your dev item now sorry i make the rules
Antenizer summon weapon that spews ants at enemies
We're making a real difference for the future of the mod
Can you explain how?
Don't bother Xzier, it's intentional.
It’s not
1: keeping on topic is nice for everyone involved
2: different people are active in different channels, so you're more likely to have responses from people that know a solution in the correct channel
If different people are active in different t channels wouldn’t it make sense to ask in multiple channels to get different opinions?
not really no
How
Your question is entirely unrelated to this channel, and all evidence points to this being an intentional attempt to derail prior conversation.
Also the purpose of multiple channels is to spread out conversation so that people don't talk over each other or that a single subject dominates all of the server. Bringing the same thing up in multiple channels entirely defeats the point of why there are multiple channels
Hmm okay I see what you mean
Your actually giving me a reason
I apologize for using the channel in a wrong way I still do think if I just got an answer instead of like just saying it’s the wrong channel it would of been a faster way to resolve the conflict
Quit with the trolling, it's gotten old.
I don't think this is trolling, just headstrong and unaware of big server etiquette. Let's just get back on topic bc the problem is resolved now anyway
I've seen enough trolling to identify it.
I'm against plantera next and need to gear up for her. I forgot how much I struggled against mech bosses lmao
I wanna melee her but man she vomits so much bullshit
Kinda disappointed there isn't much new stuff to use against her
What are you using rn?
Pwnage hammer is my plan, but is there anything new post-mech to use? Reworks?
i only recognise this individual's pfp from compromised accounts

Mage and summon are also on the table
Any 1.4.5 concepts for calamity portraits?
It’s a new one because my pc doesn’t have a mic but a headset so I wanna use a mic and a headset in a call
Hellkite for post-Plantera
ahhh 
Is it normal that animations randomly break in multiplayer? Haven't had this issue prior to the update
Sneak peak at Calamitas portrait.
welcome back Burgerpants
Hmm you could use the brim lash that’s what I used
she's trying to kill Plantera tupid
tupid limzard
killing you
that one weapon in the biome blade line that you can get post plantera
O right yeah true biome stink
I will try that bc I've used pwnage to death in previous runs
just want to let everyone whos wondering know theres an updated ranger guide on Clotz youtube channel
all classes except rogue have an updated guide currently
You want us to trust a YouTube guide!? A bold assertion.
those tend to suck yes
Guides are for fools. Craft every weapon and brute force testing
use weapons that are cool :thumby:
number 1 way to play the game
100+ weapons playthrough...
Hello KiriBlue

Nah I am an angel
I have added 50 electrons to you without you even knowing
Enjoy
In the past like 2 months
what the fuck
fucked up
anyways theres a potential of atleast 4 new mage accessories in the fture!!!!
@ sunny savior
I still need to backread all those stuff since last time I went offline for a bit
feather and moonstone crowns, flesh totem and the hallowed bangle 🥹
and update the chart
this doesnt look right
wtf is this lmao
the horrors of custom structure
Chrysonai oil rig.
Oil
wild
They should add the United States invasion event where the US invades your terraria land for oil.
🤩
OMG WAIT
Rancor's Lava effect got changed????
holy shit
it doesn't look like total glorpshit anymore that's peak
xyk will rework tears of heaven one day 🙏
this one’s so much more fucked up bc it’s not like you can move the structure to a different spot during worldgen or anything
it has to be specifically above the shimmer
calamity biome and structure devs are in Hell's Kitchen
trying its best
loving this new update 👌
he made an extra drone of himself
You know what would be cool, imagine if the layer 4 abyss enemies dropped thier weapons at any time
I think a massive sequence breaking weapon would be a great reward for somehow managing to kill one early
moooooooooore mage accessories that dramatically alter the way mana functions
I think thats already planned
i need even more
The feather and moonstone crown along with the flesh totem are planned to be reworked into mage accessories
(Though we have no idea what theyre gonna do)
Can i send videos in here?
Okay ty
what you need to do is upload, not send. Copying a file here doesnt get the embeds.
For instance, in order for me to embed and share this oddly familiar dancing 8 gif, i had to upload it myself
real and true
this is how mage will enter heaven
Where do these guys even come from anyways
probably stock stuff
Maybe the sigil of calamitas and Etheral talisman will get reworked too
cant get malice to show when world is in legendary mode
i think theyll stay as the mana flower upgraded and thats fine i just dont want them to be the only option
also basic stat sticks
they arent inherently bad its just that theyre usually the only mage accs and its really stale and boring because of that
Fair
who the fuck is that
your cousin
I just think they could have just a little somthing extra
Like the sigil of calamitas making magic attacks occaninally burst in brimstone blasts, like an upgraded Batholith Bangle
he advised me to let him in, lest i lose my access to volcano facts
an extra thing would be nice tho yeah
i do agree with that
makes them feel more mechanically like an upgrade and not just the same accessory but with higher stats
Speaking of accessoires there is somthing I would love to see
So we have the amalgamated brain and bloody worm scarf being combinations of the evil bosses expert drops
Yet only the amalgamated brain has an updrade, I think it be cool if the bloody worm scarf has one too
The Bloodshed
Although I wouldnt be suprised if they are planned to get a rework with the boss shift of evil 2 bosses
i mean they still could have amalgamated brain and like
fluffy worm scarf
since dragonfollys gonna be there
fluffy worm scarf goes hard
I mean thier base drops, the rotten brain and bloody worm tooth
yeah
All thier drops are gonna get completly reworked to feel closer to endgame
you just have the brain/tooth be used for the amalgam/whatever scarf is gonna be
i honestly want a big combination accessory thats just a combination of various movement accessories i like
slagsplitter, gravistar sabtatons or whatever they're called now, as well as whatever will inherit the godslayer dash (which ive headr is nebulous core but that could change)
get lijke this funny movement set that allows you to do multiple kinds of empowered dashes
and you have amalgamated brain/bws be using a dragonfolly expert drop (thats maybe a feather of some kind)

like whats up danger
As much as I love combination accessories, I think calamity is not planning to do that
Thats fargos specilty
So anyone have idea why terraprism now droped by day Eol? like its not suiting calamity mod, its not best summoner weapon in game
Oh it is now?
it used to just drop all the time, which was good for overall balance
the issue was that its really really good and balanced around a challenge
Didnt terraprisma get nerfed compared to vanilla?
But not that good like yeah its one of the best slots pre moon lord but its only slightly better than alternatives
And some minion mixing can get even better result
Like in ideal condition yeah but terraprisms have so good targeting
I understand if its got nerfed like now its dropped like 10% chance but its now locked with boss harder than moonlord and its worse than moonlord weapons
im not really able to spend all my time on terraria so yeah they help for sure
that's a calamity rework yeah
its also fucking busted, too busted ngl
okok
yea
its ridiculous
it kills inf WoF faster than the nights ray
like sub 60 seconds
but then again, slime god isnt a fun fight unless you do like addon difficulties
yikes
slime god?
magic missile is from dungeon chests
guys I found another bug (mod conflict)
i know, but thats the boss you're probably gonna use magic missile and other dungeon stuff on
do I post it in #1052323733961977947
no its the best pre hm mage weapon
like
period
you use it for WoF
magic missile is like by far and away the best dungeon weapon
Did magic missile get buffed this update?
im not sure ive never looked at it until now
I used it in bh and it was pretty good but nothing incredible
yall are kind of losers ngl
?
not u
most yt guides are riddled with incorrect info
Guy who replies to a conversation from 2 hours ago
its been kinda strong yeah
theyre fine as a baseline
RIP Oynx Drill. I'll miss my speed tunnels
but if you want actually good class setups you gotta look elsewhere
yeah i was reading through it whats the issue ❓⁉️
I mean, still faster than any pre-boss pickaxe can get
Def worth picking up if you’ve got big excavation plans
It's fine. I'm happier that Skyline Wings are pre Skeletron now instead of post
@dusty kayak Like this SS from the most recent clotz guide has no mention of the batholith bangle.
the batholith bangle gives you an avg of 65 dps for free which is wildly broken all the way through early HM and he cuts it out after Evil 2
okay that doesnt do justice
youtube guides 🥀
so if you want some generic setups then yea
Batholith does 600+ damage per burst
those yt things or the wiki
like in pre-hm that shits obscenely op
on any mage weapon
Do we know if the Atherium Structure in the Jungle always means the Shimmer is below it or is that only Large Worlds?
swear he was just making stuff up
Below it no matter what
yeah it means that sorta thing
That's handy
I think the aetherium structure is on the exact center of your shimmer
i dont think he tested anything, just looked at stuff you unlock as you progress
Just uh, make sure you don’t accidentally bring any water down
YEAH
idek what that is but its useful getting a general idea of whats decent at least lol, vilifying information just pushes people away esp when its easily accessible and (afaik) no "great" guides
Sponges exist though so meh
Mine spawned in the ocean on my mage 😭
or buckets
this is like my 5th calamity run
yea thhats what i mean
yt guides + wiki are good to get a general idea but they are by no means correct setups at all
they just get you through
Personally I think if a guide isn’t going to be optimal it’s just more fun to ignore it
If you want to make a guide you really should include the most boring and no fun ways to play if they’re the best ones
i mean theyre fine to learn the game?
And if you don’t want to follow a guide like that, just play the game how you wanna play it lol
i mean gallerium you kinda started this by saying "yall are kinda losers"
Calamity is not a very hard mod on its intended difficulty you can kinda just pick weapons you like and go from there
that was hostile but its not world ending
also no mention of the sea spirit amulet
+42 dps avg
on any class any weapon
if you are above 50%
lol!
wow yeah thats really good pre hardmode
its literallypost scourge and you use it up till WoF
like, i get what you mean, you're probably unhappy about people being overly repulsed by youtuber guides
i havent done HM comparisons with it yet
but you can just say instead "ya'll are kinda mean"
yeah thats prob what it was lol i think i felt insulted cause i usually follow a general guideline as to where i should be
we got shroomble before yharim
goat
dont follow guides man. go in totally blind and eat shit for 5 hr until u figure it out ✌️
(dont do that lmfao
at least they work somewhat well lol
LOWKEY THO
def keeping in mind theyre not the best tho
Kinda real
honestly man. whatever works for u
the guides don't tell you about niche item number five that you secretly know how to make op
if u like following guides, by all means follow em
if u dont like guides, uhh idk. fuck around n have fun ?
Lowkey I think the terraria community as a whole has become WAY too dependent on guides but that’s a topic for another time
honestly i never really got why this community loves guides alot
i dont see why thats an issue really, im probably biased but at the end of the day its single player or multi with friends lol
i icant be assed to pull up a guide i just do fuckin whatever and then if i get stuck i just go to bed
a mimir
tbf some content mods are fucken huge
what about it
Astrum Deus what bed size do you use
fargos feels like I'm going into a noita run
i pull up hero mod and look at EVERYTHING until i put broken stuff together
i sleep on the floor
i feel like just fucking around and finding out is very fun
honestly. yeah man
my only frame of reference for progression that i can bother to actually pull up is fuckifng boss checklist 
how's it going
if im following a very firm set of instructions on what to obtain/do/get in my game i dont think i would find that fun
I don't follow guides and end up killing aquatic scourge pre wof in like every run
because I just can
and it makes wof easy
nod
We’re discussing how we should throw a coup on the mod team why do you ask
it depends on the individual honesly
at the end of the day its a subjective topic yeah
doesnt hurt to use guides but i guess the thing is likeee. if ur overly reliant on them it takes away from gameplay
if ur overly reliant on them it takes away from gameplay
which i find alot of people in this community do
i think it's usually more fun to play the game without a guide and just see what happens
you aren't exploring and experiencing the game as you should, and instead kind of going thru it like instructions to assemble furniture
update was out for like 2 days and people already asking for when the class guide is updated or if theres a new guide to follow..
Yeah I’ve seen so many people in this community be physically unable to come up with builds unless someone gives some to them
Terraria is... an IKEA game..?
One thing I’ve been doing, if someone asks for help outside of the help channel, ask them if they’ve actually used their build
i can understand maybe class guides for cal or terraria but if its for gameplay/progression/where to go and whatnot its like hmmm. okay
hey man i found a cool lamp for the base. do u want it
i dont know who asked me a couple days back but someone here asked me if i never looked up a guide for silksong when i brought up that people should rely on wikis less.. 😔
i think the story quests are usually guide enough but some of the later game stuff can be confusing to find
couldnt figure out whhere the hell widow was for a while so i just spent ages running around doing everything else instead
i guess thats kinda the point tho. cant find it ? run around, smack some walls, do some quests
yeah
don;t just like, rush thru all of it
also the big ant that gates hunter's march filtering people
very big sign saying that if you cant beat this; come back later when youre stronger
!!! yhea
but people insist that the ant is too strong
its the kind of non-linearity that i love tbh
big enemy early game
visually telling that its aggressive and very strong
also really hard to actually kill
"this things too tough :/"
brah
People scorned Silksong for that and turned around to say that's why elden ring is the best
people are stupid
end of story
i need to get map markers and use them except every time i go to shakra i go hmmm,. nah im not gonna need it and then dont get them
if you refuse to mark things on your map backtracking is soo much harder and my friend got punished for that while going for 100%
YEAH
a lot of my struggles with the game are entirely self caused. honestly. im also just generally bad at games
but i like playing like that. its fun to me
lmaoo yeah its fine
Silksong is the Dark Souls of metroidvanias and I hate that it sounds so corny when I say that because it’s literally true
There is no way team cherry wasn’t inspired by ds1
It’s all over the place
My argument is that silksong is fundamentally solid and not janky as shit
unlike dark souls
though that does kind of make me wonder though, like, i seem to have no problem breezing through the ori games but things like hollow knight and silksong i'll have some pretty substantial struggles with at some stage, even though both are the same genre and overall fairly similar...? (i think so anyway, idk actually
It's just a hard metroidvania
It is a hard metroidvania but it feels so dark souls esque in its exploration
Way moreso than the original HK ever did
hm
okay. so its a skill issue then 
Yeah
I can see that with silksong's buncha routes yeah
That’s why I hate it when people use “the dark souls of x” as a generic name for whatever hard thing came out
non linear yea ?
Because like, Silksong is an actual dark souls of x and it’s fucking awesome
Yeah
non linearity is nice.. though it can sometimes be overhwhelming
starting off at least
I'm so dogshit at exploring metroidvanias that I still don't know how to get to the alternate routes in silksong
do yall think we will ever be able to see a yharim boss fight?
yeah
how many years?
pros: flexible progression, go to whoever and learn whatever whenever. come back later if you are struggling
cons: where am i
5-7
minimum of 5
wow
yharim is the last thing they will ever add to top off the mod main content wise
i hope to be allive until then
i find ori harder honestly, i'm so bad at exploring that map and finding random little hidden secrets
oh really ??
hollow knight makes so much more sense in my brain
what is going to come?
and the combat isn't nearly hard enough for me to counter that
that's interesting to me
i know theres like three but i dont remember the last one
im not gonna lie i thought you were talking about silksong and was abit confused for a seccond
first or second game ?
1st
ohh
what are the calamity mod admins working on right now?
okay, that makes some sense
john wulfrum & the wulfruminator
haven't tried the 2nd yet, want to do the 1st beforehand lol
is that a joke?
OH NO DEFINITELY.
it's a struggle tho i don't know what's going on or where to find literally anything 😭
non-zero chance to be true
i'm worried i'm going to take an item, use it somewhere across the map, then never find the one i was meant to sue
<so. mentally ill about ori
uhhh i cuold probably stream it at smpoint it's been a bit since i played proplery lol
oh the key and mapstones are flexible af
a variety of things
They worked on SSo/brainstorm for three years
let em breathe a little
there's no really like, collectibles so there's nothing you're going to use too early on which'll lock you out of something later so it's not something you need to be worries about
SSO fornever
i mean that's good at least
also wait are u playing base game or definitive edition
definitive
HUZZAAH
Everyone is stuck in the endless water pit until the end of time
EXTRA ABILITIES AND LORE LETS GOOOO
XD
Wait are you guys talking about ori and the blind forest?
YES
Its so beautiful
hang on i'll install it on the other computer i can't run it on the craptop
guy that really likes ori
helloo everykitty
YOU FUCKIGN UNDERSTAAAANDDD
Bonjour
i love the ori games so much uuhhuhuohougugghghjkg
was it 3?
is this ori talk
it was three
the hk clone?
celeri
SSO was meant to release in 2024
you are on thin fucking ice
meaning it was in the works since before very likely
Mods, obliterate them
IM SORGY
rend their flesh from their bones
wait ori?
yaa
holy fuck 2024 was two years ago
SOBBING
indeed
TRUE??
LMAO
this dudes gonna get nuked by tofu
PEAK ragebait
It still feels like late 2024 lowkey
i cant say that ill get jkilled by mods actually
is this a justified crashout
aren't you a dev?

Tofu c'mon
yea but i need to keep it pg
fair
laame
plus there are younger kids here
boeingg!
I just now noticed, is that power from CSM?
sinetgubg something .setting an example. not that i gaf but i'd like to not be publicly scolded
-5 aura
alr i'm going to play more ori
yes it is and she's eating a pop sicle
Dope
im at uniiii i cant watch :(
just out of frame
damnn
I am watching JJK rn, but plan to watch CSM after since they seem pretty similar
lmk when you can i'll stream it somewhere 
tbf. incredibly biased also
i need to figure out what i was doing rn anyway
Same, I can only watch TV during breaks 😔
they are similar because both of the authors are the worst people ever and want you specifically to suffer
ori does share some similarities to hk like the shard/charm system but that kind of just feels like, a general mechanic
My favorite kind of story
nine sols utilizes jades which do the same thing
happy stories are missed potential
huge disagree 😭
it's just a super effecitve way to do equipables in a metroidvania
but like i don't think sad stories are bad
No but you can get so much more emotion out of sad stories
silksong's the other way and it isn't as flexible
you need a good balance of happy and sad to make an effective story
i think it depends on the story, happy stories can be very very impactful as well
Happy stories are just (Thing is good), (Thing is a little bad I guess), (Wait it was all fine), at least imo
maybe I need to watch more
Like it kinda feels like it never mattered and there weren't any consequences
hi
overwhelmingly bad is not good. it loses most if not all meaning if it entirely like. wow my life fucking sucks i have 19 million mental illnesses and was abused and 2lklr;2h3#
idk there's no point simplifying it that much
I don't think it needs to follow a tonal pattern it just needs to have something for people to chew on like a theme
hi doze :D
Well yeah
all bad is also bad
but like it needs bad that does actually have a lasting effect
anyway I have a bad headache so I'm going to go watch a show now bye
! bad events need to have a lasting impact
Like I hate when dead characters just get revived for no reason just because people are sad. Like then it just never happened
exactly
otherwise it undermines the narrative significance of it
it depends what you mean by "happy story," a generally happy outcome does not equal a story with zero conflict or consequences
Ok fair
yaa
originally a comedy was just a show where everyone didn't die at the end...
I should be more specific. I mean like "I know everything will be fine at any point because of either infinite plot armor, lack of lasting consequences, or overall tone not being conducive to any real emotional moments"
ya comedy just meant a "happy ending" but happy ending back then was very warped
hahaha it's so funny that everyone except you died
tragedies they kill 90% Of the important characters
comedies they kill Less Than That
i think a resolution and happy ending are probably the terms ur looking for (says the guy that doesnt write
well yeah but this is just bad writing not really specific to a happy story
Like idk, I don't think JJK goes so far in being sad that it starts to desensitize you from the sad and lose impact, and there are still hype/happy moments
that is true
I am trying to think of an example
probably
resolution feels like. okay, the problems solved and things have calmed down but thats it
'happy ending' feels more like oh yeah we had a disaster but its fixed and like nothing happened so weee dont care
actually. really bad explanations
ignore that
Like I don't like overly happy endings where "everyone lived happily ever after" becase
a). That would never happen
b). Nothing that happpened before that really has any lasting impact
i mean like
there can be happily ever afters i think
Well yeah but Spongebob isn't really aiming for emotional beats
i wanna use ori as an example but. spoilers and idk if its a good example anyway
I guess my beef is more with unearned good endings that feel like they kinda wrapped up too neatly when they realistically shouldn't have
hm.
if you have an overarching narrative then yea events need to have impact whether the outcome is happy or sad
But again thats mroe just bad writing
I just don't think there could be a well written "everyone lives happy and everything was solved" ending
I'm down for more ori
in some media there are very few actual events and you're moreso just experiencing the world after the fact
Yeah, but its been a minute
fair nuff
valid
the ending to the second game kind of feels like those like, happily ever after endings but i feel with the way the narrative is done its quite nice
well again it depends because a staple of storytelling in general is character development, whether or not a character dies isnt important but characters do generally need to change over time which necessitates events with lasting effects
Well the game overall isn't very happy, so I think it balances out
,true
i do like the way the game kind of bookends itself from the first game. ending where you started, or in similar circumstances anyway
-# plucking at my heartstrings. sob
whether or not that's via the death of a character or just the characters having some sort of conflict and then learning and healing from it isn't strictly important
imo
and the latter case is a very happily ever after outcome
Like idk, I like stories where its "put this man in a situation" and he just gets put in the blender for a while and has to earn the happy ending, but is still kinda messed up afterwards because of the stuff that happened
ya that's character development
i think also the other thing is like, part of that ending is showing the antag's demise
You can also have sad stories without people dying
ya
one way of going about it at least
trauma does not go away !!!
Ok, have y'all played E33, and can I mention spoilers?
and now theres a general feeling in the air that the devs dont even want to do SSO (at least, for next content patch)
have not played it, dont mind spoilers but it might be good to put them with a spoiler on anyway
yea
every1 tired of fish mines
no one's interested and frankly no one has the ideas. sso is a remnant of before 22
what disorganization and the fabsolution does
||text||
|test|
no
two lines
||test||
my bad og
lmao
ah
||HERE||
I figuerd it out
Any idea when I fight brain it says it’s no longer after me when I’m about to kill it?
this is why the next update should be the deus update 
in part but the reasoning like, now at least. again. is that its a remnant of 22 and most of the 22 people were the guys behind sso
hence
sso death
im kinda worried tho because my mind has been waiting for the next update to be SSO, and not even whatever yeah
wait, what does that even mean
wdym
E33 SPOILERS:
||I have a problem with one of the endings, because after all the trauma and family disputes and 70 years of fighting and literally being at war, everything is jsut suddenly fine? Like the husband and wife that were literally at war and trapped each other in super hell for 70 years are just perfectly fine now and they process things and move on normally. Like I would prefer to see more of the aftermath||
not reading any of that but fr
pretty sure its one of the major reasons for 22?
Like this kinda thing is weird to me
the people behind SSO were 22 folk? what does "22 people" mean?
people who left in 22? Because that was like, 22. that was BEFORE yknow fabsolution
i remember sir nautilus was pretty much a complete thing and the horse rejected sir nautilus even when it was almost complete which ticked off alot of the devs that were working on the update
sso planned
sso dev commenced
22 dev exodus. devs pulling assets and concepts
sso continued post 22 with different ideas
22 refers to a mass leaving of devs sometime in 2022 or like 22 people left
i fogor
about 22 people left
dont take my word for it i might be spreading misinfo (i have bad memory
iban talked about it in fablescord i thinkk
i think it was actually 23 in total but 22 initially or something
I think that the amount that has been done by the dev team is genuinely incredible considering the amount of shenanigans that have occured lol
imma be real
I keep seeing your (astrum deus) pfp as a guy with a glowing mouth instead of astrum deus coiling around golden star thing
i cant see it but fair nuff
yeah ie do NOT see that 😭
both iirc
wtf
ill be so fuckign real with u it was kind of scary joining dev and asking for sso concept art to use as ref for future work and just being handed like, 2 actual concept pieces
like okay. yeah no wonder they wanted an environmental artist 
attack on titan?
it was actually 21 iirc but that's close enough
and yea dec 2022
like all the old concepts got pulled since they were from iban iirc
oh oops
ILY GINSO TREE
can you leak these 
no everyoone says its' 22 because that's funnier
i take it you haven't ascended the tree yet
no
but then why is "22" posted alongside queen bee concept art
i just found it and opened it
shit, that little?
it's an older thing from fargos
fargos
mmm ionwanna
oh
22 hornet rounds
22 bullet theory
i know triangle and tobias did a fuck ton of fish sprites and concepts for those Sunken Sea guys to live in but yeeee
triangle and tobias had done a lot of fish
what the biome itslef would look like was impressively unclear
actually. no. im misremembering. my bad
i think in terms of like, entirely drawn concept art it was only a small handful of maybe like, 2 or 3 pieces but there were more things like drawovers from ingame screenshots
i keep forgetting about those 
are we done with writer talk
they were really good for implementation actually but admittedly they looked kind of disjointed
i think at the time tobias was the only active person who did concept art
now we get awesome scrimbly tofart
frankly speaking i am kind of glad we're probably dropping sso for another time.. it might just be better to redo it from the ground up. we have a foundation but trying to build off of what we currently have feels kind of difficult, just as well i think we could get a bit more wacky with the worldgen instead of having it just be a vertical stack like the abyss .and also in my earlier drafts
Ooh, what if it was concentric rings
i agree with the wackier worldgen
and then the giant clams only spawned in the center or something, or like the hardmode giant clams are locked behind hardmode digging level blocks in the inner core or something
i'd love to get a sunken sea overhaul done but when i (or the whole team for that matter) don't have the ideas for it, i don't know if i want to like... release an unthorough product
i mean u could probably look at actual underwater ecosystems for worldgen inspo
if it gets overhauled, i'd like it to be good. not just different
Make em circles
im not knowledgable on the topic but it could be a good place to start
Big ol circles
no wonder why triangle was all "the economical environmental visual isnt gonna be really a thing in sso"
exactly
i thought sso was gonna make the biome really wide along with getting taller but uh well 
the pill
ill have 2 think about it
no wonder why i only really heard actual stuff about SSO from those two guys
im assuming yall are also following the philosophy/idea just like iban's team now that if you were to release something it would be something you wouldnt have to revisit or rework in the future
not the biggest thing on my mind rn tho. unfortunately largely uninterested fish currently
fuck
idk im just goiung by my own thoughts. the team's might differ
ideally we wouldn't have to revisit it because it's just more work
but that's just me
none of the team wants to release stuff that we'll have to redo later unless the purpose is explicitly as a placeholder
like current dog
feels kind of redundant to plan a big change and then also say like, oh yeah we're probably gonna make it better again later
unless it's supposed to be a quick bandaid solution to something, it's counterintuitive
wasted work..
what the actual fuck happened with tobias that led him to leave tho
noneya business
idk if i can say
right fair
i really wish people didnt try and dig for reasons when people leave the team
from who
triangle and tobias
understandable to be curious but best not pry ya
ic
i do dislike that people try to dig up something, i think it also happened when HPU left
it happens pretty much any time people leave
for personal reasons rather than big public things
like dokuro
people speculate and gravity towards bad blood between the team as the reason which does get annoying
everything must be a conspiracy ooooh
though that was also quite public honestly
yeah this
thats not a good example
if i ever leave its because they cancelled deus redesign /j
i felt like it just because a lot of last-year's leavers were uh, controversial
most infamously fabsol, but even beofre him, there was bird
man people to this day debate on why dokuro "actually" left
Tobi probably has better things to do with his skills
i know tobias's leaving was due to drama tho
okay well tobias isn't a pedophile so
i mean people are still super nosy about it yea
backpack holding onto a few threads image
yeah thank god
ok i have to go back to work. have fun yall
cya
good luck
goodbye fofu!
dont get into too much mischief
peace tofu

☹️
im stealing your bugs and cooking them up
gets into just the correct amount of mischief
im going to kill you with my teeth and eat you in broad daylight
i sure hope no one cooks up a storm
no.
brains up a storm
AT LEAST I'LL BE HIGH IN PROTEIN IDK
anyway i will also be shrivelling up and departing goodbye!
Isn't that the one that used to give the buffs like the community but does the summons now?
it's ok
if i leave it's because of sunny btw you can blame her
it was not touched
programmers will duke it out in a brawl
as the prophecy states
you cant do that. who will i randomly send aureus info to then
wholesome
@cunning sequoia force developer role
?strange
ig it's becasue it'm streaming it from the other computer but like
nothing else does this
where even are you streaming
using steam's remote play t
Not too op or weak
ori sound shaped lump in my throat: huh weird
alex.
ok nvmit is an everything problem rn
its good for weaponless but otherwise yeah its just kinda mediocre
it's not just ori
whats in your mouth
alex
idk ive never used it
but probably
at the tier you get it at theres like zero reason to use it over anything else
i forget the elementals exist i cannot find it in me to gaf about them
TRUE
it used to be meta because fucking nobody tested it
i could say that for cal lore in general
the only thing i can bring myself to feel for the elementals is contempt
really good picture.
its so hard to remember that in a setting where the souls of extremely powerful beings matter so much that even the distortion has two beings that are trying to steal them, there's also these funny girls that embody elements and they're also supposed to matter in the setting
I still think Rev+ BoC is a really fun fight
cursor texture shaped lump in m
Im the next picasso
SDPIT IT OUTTTT
No, better
no you're not
like genuinely from when it lost all the extra stones to like bountiful harvest nobody fucking tested it it was meta for moon lord and deus and nobody fucking noticed
you're not ready man
i can make that infinitely better Light the dancer
ok i actuakly need to keep working. shit cultist animation wip last messafw gofbye
and then it got meta again once it got nerfed because old fashioned got added
-# if you can't tell this is satire dont take this literally you fucking MORON
you're not ready bub
strange, says my Calamity updated but the Hellborn is not reworked..
sure buddy
keep ragebaiting
I got adventure time to tend to
Did the one scoria gun get nerfed?
i think heart of the elements should be axed 
it used to be the best option on-tier and now its like the worst
uhh i dunno about that
no rage to bait here, i told you the truth.
here, B E H O L D
Well unless you do the contact damage consistently, which isn't really possible. its not like old hellborn where it gave you like 10 seconds of bonus
the elements make no weapon challenges actually bearable
Dear god it's a masterpiece 
new greatsword of judgement is cool but i noticed its hit range on ambient objects is really big for some reason but im too lazy and tired to submit a bug report rn
amazing answer
evil stinky aura that makes it have 2x reach for ambient objects specifically
aw cool new brim elemental sounds
I lowkey kinda wish brimstone elemental got a buff. She is kind of a pushover imo
not even like a rework, just some more sauce
people shouldnt be forced to fight her for more than a minute
?

Why is ozzatron a cosmic horror now
I don't think its a health issue, but all she does is a super telegraphed laser, cocooning into like single blasts, and like normal single shots?
I genuinely can't even rememebr because I kinda turn my brain off in that fight
btw somehow someone else made that even worse
Yeah, she's an all around just do it and continue on type of boss in pretty much every mode, death, infernum.
brimmy is in such a sad state rn i feel bad for her
like msot cal bosses are at least memorable for being bad
brimmy just happens
adn you forget you even fought her
I feel like part of the reason calamity can feel like a boss rush is because some of the bosses kinda just happen and then you forget about them
She got a nice chair though
exactly
I remember her for that
its just like signus
Both might need a redesign huh
how to get golden fishing rod easily after the update?
I would go feral for a signus overhaul. Make him an absolutely goated ghost shadow assassin man
Considering Signus is already getting one
Like give permanent blindness and then a flash and oyu have to dash in that direction to parry
Like the one guy in the resting grounds from HK
Give brimmy one too
I cannot wait for a CV rework in general
actually my least favorite boss by far
Then we'll just have the void
Limited void
Good one
Fully unrelated to calamity, but jusding by your name and pfp, I assume you have been keeping up with Modulo?
Yurr
I am a huge fan
Mahito treatment always puts a smile on my face
I can't wait to see Dabura pop off with his domain
TRUE
I want the reincarnated baby sukuna theories to be true
chibi sukuna
Just a little guy
Mr wheel man is gonna make another banger fight, as per usual 
True
I think Mahoraga is like actually my favorite "character" other than maybe Gojo ot Toji
I can't think about "baby" sukuna without seeing the cursed footkuna images anymore

It's just ingrained by lobotomy kaisen, what a time that was
anyways calamity
Uh


why he so compressed
devourer of brainstorms
what's brainstorm

what do you MEAN "what's brainstorm"
like
I've never heard of brainstorm before
like are we brainstorming new ideas or
you have to be joking
whats brainstorm
Didn’t you make the update
DON'T YOU KNOW WHO I AM
he wasn't team when the update came out
No he made the mod
yeah carny is john calamity

carn ee and carn ae do not..
I am literally studying in a university learning languages 
😎

well, what's brainstorm you ask?
w
overdone up to his money-making schemes again I see
Pay me $50 so you can tell me
send a $50 donation with an explanation
I've been tasked with translating The Speckled Band from Japanese to Russian
how is your day going
oh it's like
full linguist damn
are you learning every major language? that's cool
my major is Japanese
English is like the second major and it's lower in the hierarchy
but that's like a non-issue, not like I'm bragging 
what the fuck are you people talking about
Dawg I am so horrendous at learning languages. Did french for 6 years, can't do anything with it, ancient Greek for 2, also can't do anything with it
I am sticking to my astro classes lol
I passed spanish flawlessly for four years and still don't understand it nearly as much as I should
thanks american education system
My brain just does not compute it
My brain does not compute English well and it's the only language I know, so I dropped second languages after grade 9
Lol
thats so real
I am like unironically better at math than english
