fuck ass boss ngl. some of these death mode bosses are fucking awful

brittle escarp
#

Plaguebringer, deus (sometimes), aureus (not hard just annoying), plantera, golem, the twins, skeletron prime, signus, storm weaver (sometimes), and, of course, CV

#

my least favorite boss by far

radiant sparrow
#

so far the bosses ive had real trouble with was eoc. twins, plantera and now goliath

brittle escarp
#

Twin are the hardest mech boss and I am tired of pretending they arent

#

they are so much worse than skeletron prime

#

They are just slightly faster than you can be, so they always jsut graze you for like 450

personally I enjoy longer boss fights so I don't use them

but Rage does suck tho

It's a winmore mechanic that feels inextricably linked to Cal's nohit obsession that it has never truly grown out of

no Rage

Rage is worse than Adre 😭

Isn’t that just how everything in video games go

If you’re good at it you beat it faster

I think that’s valid

yeah Adre is fine, it's valid

rage and adren should be axed true

If you did a perfect play

You get perfect damage

Kiri I'm watching your all bosses video rn you're doing a great job showing off all the reworks

Personally I just don't think it really adds anything except a quick dopamine rush and an easy trivialization of a boss, idk. It's funny but ultimately I don't like what it adds to the game, but I also am bad enough at the game to still use it when it comes up ;-;

The thing about adrenaline's design is that as it stands it's a core mechanic. The game is balanced with players more than likely using it, so now we have a nuke button that's just part of the core game, and that's just Fine, I guess. If you ignore it, that's a decision that goes against the core design of the mod rn, even if it's an easy thing not to do.

watching empress fight

#

btw rev+ empress pretty good imo

runic charm
#

i think adrenaline is sick but rage is such a relatively small boost, and it doesnt require nohitting like adrenaline, so its pretty redundant. i think just combining rage into adrenaline would be ideal

rotund venture
#

will it get a full rework or just a little polish, what do yall think?

hushed crown
#

I never understood how rage even worked anyway

#

Does it increase the closer you are to the boss/projectiles?

lapis oak
#

yes

#

I think only bosses count not projectiles

runic charm
fierce hearth
#

Can rage and adren entirely, or make them accessories

rotund venture
#

they are kind of integral to the mod's identity at this point

runic charm
#

i enjoy adrenaline personally, its fun to be able to master phase 1 enough that it gives you an edge for phase 2

rotund venture
#

having existed for so long

hushed crown
#

Wouldn’t adrenaline fit better as a damage multiplier when you’re close to death or is that already a thing somewhere else

runic charm

also doing crazy damage just feels rewarding. its kind of a junk food mechanic, but like, i cant deny that it does feel satisfying

reddit is just a swarm of pestilent children anyway there's a reason no feedback is taken from that place

hushed crown
#

Although some bosses are massive so it wouldn’t really be a tradeoff

tribal isle
hushed crown
#

I’d imagine rage working something like that cause it kinda makes sense for the rage mechanic to have you just flailing your weapon around like a maniac

lapis oak
#

reminded me that

amber furnace
#

what if the rage meter is extended for the duration and damage based on how much you're attacking the enemy

lapis oak
#

Dia "leaked" something a while ago

#

that looks like some kinds of Rage rework

final pine
dusk bronze
fierce hearth
#

My gripe with adrenaline is more or less that it's a winmore button that's presented as a core mechanic that players are implicitly encouraged to use (and implicitly told that not using it would be putting themselves at a disadvantage with the increased difficulty). It's extremely overturned at that, providing stupidly high damage if utilized correctly, to the point it allows for easy trivialization of certain bosses or mechanics. Players should be rewarded for playing well, yes, but could we possibly do something more engaging with "playing well" than "nohitting"? Rage sucks, but at its core it at least encourages you to do something you wouldn't otherwise try to do, which is stay close to the boss.

That's precisely what I'm talking about. If you're nohitting already, then you're playing well.

Omg it's been so long since I last heard of yomi

gloomy grove

the game can be funny tbh, you get fun matchups like sukuna vs red ant

gloomy grove
#

hell nah i lost by like turn 4

runic charm
fierce hearth
#

I understand there's scaling difficulty through boss fight phases, but then the design fails to make sense to me. If you nohit phase 1, then that means you're maxed on hp and have no pot sickness already, you're already in a good position for phase 2. Now you add adrenaline, which only serves to reduce the difficulty of phase 2 further, on top of your already good position.

misty solstice
runic charm
#

maybe? ive never felt like adrenaline screws with the difficulty curve of bosses. usually my process of fighting a boss will be:

suck at the whole thing
get decent at phase 1, am able to barely make it to phase 2, die instantly
master phase 1, am able to take adrenaline into phase 2 now and get farther, but still lose
practice more, now my mastery of phase 1 + my adrenaline + getting good at phase 2 gets me the win

fierce hearth
#

I think the simplest way I can put my argument is: you shouldn't reward players for things they were always going to do

#

It doesn't add anything that valuable to your game, it's just Fluff.

runic charm
#

if adrenaline were removed, i would lose the actual real life feeling of adrenaline as i feel it charging up, the satisfaction of using it, the disappointment of hearing the sound that plays when you lose it, etc. just go with a defense build, chug healing potions, and you dont have to worry about mastering a phase. "good enough" is all you need, theres no reward for mastery

fierce hearth
#

The reward of mastery is itself, dunno what more to say

runic charm
#

a lot of the fun and memorable moments of astrageldon and infernum dog and such were me mastering their first phases to the point where it gave me an advantage over what felt like a crazy difficult second phase. that was an extra layer to the fight that i appreciated having. i didnt just have to get into phase 2 infernum devourer with decent health and my potion off cooldown. i had to do it without getting hit, otherwise i would have to spend more time against the deadly second phase

runic charm
# fierce hearth The reward of mastery is itself, dunno what more to say

if you only need "good enough" then mastery isnt much of a reward. once a person just barely manages to beat a boss, they open the treasure bag and start crafting and gearing up for the next boss. they dont go back and master it. but with adrenaline, now youve given the average player that incentive to actually truly "master" a phase. not just stumble their way through it, but understand it deep enough to keep adrenaline throughout it

I’m curious about why the devs wanted to rework the boc of all bosses, any chance of any other vanilla bosses getting changed or is boc the only planned

the only boss I know that people actually memorize is scal

That’s fair enough

Yeah in the doc scal seems to be one of the only bosses being left untouched

Scal will probably get a rework eventually

Not a massive one but

desert garnet

they prob gonna give her original ai

cuz she uses retinazer ai

runic charm
fierce hearth
#

I'm tired and do need to go to bed, but I wanna close out by saying that I do understand where you are coming from. There is a lot of feel that comes from the reward of surmounting that difficulty, and cashing in on it to use it to help you teeter over that edge to victory. It's a really potent feeling, and I felt it a lot, too. But after a while my feelings changed. I already wanted to avoid all attacks, so I could use more aggressive strategies to further simplify the boss. So what does adrenaline serve, then? If that motivation is already there, it's just there to occupy design space. Sure I can be "good enough" at a boss, but if I'm excellent, then the boss becomes easier. The challenge is lessened by my excellence. I'm fighting an easier boss by playing well. Am I even surmounting the same challenge I was just "good enough" at now? It's a design philosophy I fundamentally disagree with, and that's just that for me.

rotund venture

runic charm
# fierce hearth I'm tired and do need to go to bed, but I wanna close out by saying that I do un...

that is fair, and i appreciate the thoughtful response. it depends on the person i guess. maybe there could be some kind of challenge mode that disables adrenaline and rage, while still keeping rev/death difficulties, for people who would feel more satisfied beating bosses without it

to me, adrenaline is just fun. fighting really hard bosses feels like a story, and adrenaline adds a new depth to that story. its not perfect, but its far more thoughtful and engaging than potions and damage accessories. it feels satisfying, it symbolizes mastery of a phase, etc etc. also, i really really prefer short fights over long ones, so i would much rather have a 1 minute long ultra hard glass cannon adrenaline fight than a 5 minute long, no adrenaline, defense build fight

rotund venture

the devs have already decided

maybe this is a weird nitpick but I’m kinda saddened by the lack of Hardmode Ore weapon effects

#

Christ.. either I’m blind or I don’t even see the change to remove the effects from the weapons that they used to have in logs

spark kiln
#

what weapons

open arch
#

Oh uh

spark kiln
#

i don’t remember hard mode ore weapons having special effects

open arch
#

The cobalt, palladium, mythril, orichalcum, adamantite and titanium spears and swords

spark kiln
#

u sure that was calamity

distant raft
#

cobalt sword and naginata decreased defence by 25% for 10 seconds, titanium sword and halberd had up to 1.15x damage based on kb resist

#

stuff like that

open arch
#

yeh

distant raft
#

yeah it was cal

open arch
#

hate to ask it like this but like

#

Were those ideas Fabsol had?

cobalt wharf
#

no

spark kiln
#

fabsol or not the point was to reduce changes to vanilla content

#

which is lame but whatever

open arch
#

fair ‘nuff

cobalt wharf
#

things aren’t removed only because they’re fabsol, if something’s removed it’s because it’s bad in one way or another
that just happens to overlap with being fabsol in a lot of cases

open arch
#

Wasn’t going on some soapbox about the guy but yeah

cobalt wharf
#

im perfectly fine with removing those changes since they were all really dull but i dont get replacing them with stat shuffles. thats even more boring and doesnt fix the vanilla change issue

cobalt wharf
open arch
#

plaguebringer goliath my once beloathed

it was supposed to be 10 seconds but nobody ever coded the ending of the effect actually removing the effect

they just don’t have inherit stats

?

cobalt wharf
#

yeah they still do

spark kiln
#

no they don’t

dull heart
#

Yeah

#

The ore armors all have calamity set bonuses

open arch
#

Some of them still do but weren’t some tweaked a good bit?

distant raft
#

the stats from pieces got removed, they still have the set bonuses

#

iirc

open arch
#

or am I having a elsterderp moment

cobalt wharf
#

yes

open arch
#

ah

spark kiln
#

they just straight up don’t bro

#

also like necro armor and stuff

dull heart
#

Copper is AP, tin is crit, iron is knockback, lead is knockback immune, silver is medkit, tungsten is hooks, gold is money based dmg, platinum is DR

what are you even talking about. where did you find this lie

you could verify this in 30 seconds by opening the video game

necro is the same meteor is the same

matter of fact more were added like rain

not completely but like

#

you can see the pinned message here for their new intended niches

#

i wish it was communicated better ingame since the wing stats are really confusing to read but they all are meant to have different purposes it seems

it’s still a lot better than just random 5% damage 5% crit on every wing imo

dull heart

wing tooltips got like 10x worse this update

cobalt wharf

I can answer that

It isnt

the 20$ tier has immense value tbh

dull heart

you should all always go auric tier so that calamity gets more money so that I get more money

dense sundial
misty solstice
#

you need 20 bucks or somethin

dense sundial

since it says "increases fall speed" and every other wing niche lies in the expanded stats

cobalt wharf

and bee i think

Whips without an attack speed buff receive the effects of other whips' buffs.

Just wait until tmodloader ports to 1.4.5

misty solstice

1.4.5 basically added my entire summon tag system into vanilla it's so funny

So stacking was partially in place back then

yeah cal didnt fully remove it

just stacking buffs and tag damage iirc

it'll die when tmod comes to 1.4.5 and cal updates for it

thing is item stacking skill expression still exists

#

it's just generally cross class

misty solstice

buh buh buh my class

dull heart

Like I've never seen anyone but myself talk about half of the great stacking items in terraria

proper thunder
#

ntm cal adds a lot of them

misty solstice
#

yuh

dull heart
#

And makes a lot of them better

misty solstice
#

it also makes it 1000x easier to do

dull heart
#

Like wasp gun becoming static instead of global

#

Wasp Gun is so underrated

misty solstice
#

especially with the fact there is classless weapons

lean relic
dull heart
#

Right now the best item in the mod is a classless weapon

#

claret cannon

rancid pagoda
#

wasp gun is good but bat scepter is available right after

dull heart
#

Because you can stack 10 different claret cannons and get a healing potion every 10 seconds

dull heart
rancid pagoda
#

it's not?

dull heart
#

Wasp Gun is much better for weapon swapping

#

Because wasps build up on the enemies so you can stop firing it and lose no DPS at all

rancid pagoda
#

oh is there a limit on that

dull heart
#

Meaning support weapons on it are entirely free dps

misty solstice
proper thunder
#

making it static makes it so it doesnt effect other weapons i frames right

dull heart
#

Even when it was global though

proper thunder
#

coolio

dull heart
#

You could use stuff like Betsy's Wrath

#

Betsy's Wrath and Wasp Gun is a crazy good combo

#

This is also why I hate the swarmer with a passion

#

It loses literally everything interesting about bee guns mechanically

proper thunder
#

wait thats so lame wtf

#

ive never seen this before

#

a late game usage for bees could be so cool because bee weapons are close to if not my favorite subtype of weapon

this is just magic shotgun
