dull heart

It'll orbit and fire a few times

fathom girder
#

I see the logic

dull heart
#

But the tag lasts longer

high scaffold
#

DoG realy is an actual challenging boss now

fathom girder
#

Isn't it wonderful

dull heart
#

hear me out

#

Void Concentration active is just rod of discord

pulsar cobalt
#

does sand cloak not work with default dash

dull heart
#

It doesn't for some reason

fathom girder
#

it does not

dull heart
#

I need to fix that probably

high scaffold
#

I have gotten to a point where I get him into second phase before the first laser wall

pulsar cobalt
#

yea im doing weaponless so i was like "oh right sand cloak that might help"

#

but nope

fathom girder
#

yeahhhh

#

I had the same logic when I tried that run

#

thankfully SoC isn't hard to get

high scaffold
#

I would do more tries on DoG but my hands are not feeling it anymore

fathom girder
#

sand cloak's damage is actually helpful once you get a dash

high scaffold
#

In my best attempt so far I have been hit only 3 times

fathom girder
#

ooo nice

#

dmode?

high scaffold
#

Ye

#

Banshee hook and Ambergris are doing wonders

ionic geyser
#

y'all the removal of items like the trapper bulbs and cores had me so confused. just read the changelogs on the removals. honestly they make sense.

fathom girder
#

yeah, the removed items were utter fluff

#

they saved you a lot of time in the crafting menu mostly lul

ionic geyser
#

I thought there was something wrong with my Tmodloader. Didn't even know there was a big update

high scaffold
#

I have learned how to coil DoG into an ellipse

#

To maximize damage from ram dashes

fathom girder
#

if you wanna do coil tech

#

I recommend spiteful candle

#

cuz that damage boost ignores DR, so you can make more use of the fact that you're surrounded mostly by his body

tropic jolt
#

how long do snails sleep

high scaffold
#

If this is how good reworked DoG is, imagine reworked Yharon

lean relic
tropic jolt
#

nromal

spark kiln
#

can holy collider only hit back providences projectiles or does it work on other things

dull heart
#

only provis

lean relic
fathom girder
#

and they said ultrakill references aren't in calamity

#

but we have feedbacker right here

tender yew
#

why is the Nucleosynthesis only shooting the nebula beam instead all 4?

high scaffold
#

Because it uses only nebula fragments instead of all 4 and is also resprited?

#

Honestly idk

#

Preparation for rework

misty wren
#

no its still supposed to shoot all 4

misty wren
tender yew
tender yew
#

so i just wasted my time

misty wren
#

no

tired adder
#

oh, so they didn't recolor other beams

misty wren
#

it still should shoot all 4 the beams just work really fuckily with pierce

high scaffold
#

Its a bit weird to see weird to see it resprited but not reworked

west ledge
#

so hypothetically how high is 25k dps pre polty

tired adder
tender yew
west ledge
#

legion of celestia is dogshit imo

high scaffold
grave geyser
#

its fine

west ledge
#

honestly no

tired adder
#

yes, but it has no rizz

west ledge
#

even at its stage theres several better options

tired adder
#

it's just a PNG

west ledge
#

TPE is like infinitely better

grave geyser
#

not being litterally the best option does not make it dogshit

west ledge
#

yeah i used flowers + TPE

west ledge
high scaffold
#

Out of 11 elemental weapons 4 are reworked rn

west ledge

tierlist server

west ledge
grave geyser
#

no

west ledge
#

do you have a link

grave geyser
#

no

west ledge
#

awesome so where exactly can i find it

grave geyser
#

ask one of these people

west ledge
#

oh so its a closed server

#

wouldve just ben easier if you started with that but thanks anyways

desert garnet
#

but

#

iirc there is a document

west ledge
#

i see

desert garnet
west ledge
#

why is it not just open for others though atleast the tier list part

solar hare
#

that server accepts no one because its funnier that way

west ledge
#

i mean i guess the doc would contain the info but idek the location of it

solar hare
west ledge
#

I accept that answer because I like elation

solar hare
#

if youre chill and want to be there youd likely get in

desert garnet
#

i see

west ledge
#

thats weird to read

#

im not exactly sure how to parse it

grave geyser
#

in what way

polar tide
#

i love baby cats so much

west ledge
#

i take it not every weapons on there

#

and that its in a lot of testing due to new update

grave geyser
#

yes

west ledge
#

why is old lord claymore so high

grave geyser
#

big damage :)

west ledge
#

oh its tier/progression point

#

okay

polar tide
#

but its good without that too

west ledge
#

and none of the summons are on the list yet

#

yeah it was fixed

grave geyser
#

I mean
theres definitely a few on the vanilla one

west ledge
#

i understand that but im on calamity so

#

it doesnt really do much to know the vanilla one

grave geyser
#

wait nvm theres a whole 3 (three) cal minions listed

west ledge
#

Okay yeah my bad I should clarify that none of the summons for my progression point are on there

grave geyser
#

ah yeah
where are you atm

west ledge
#

Post providence pre polterghast

#

like 25k dps which ik is super high for this level

grave geyser
#

hmm
there actually are a few that got tested at that tier but one of them is stabbers which is lmao and the other idr if it got changed last update

tired adder
grave geyser
#

funny

west ledge
#

stabber just got changed too

grave geyser
#

mhm

west ledge
#

so its void by now until its retested

grave geyser
tired adder
#

crimson rod

#

it wasn't even changed in 2.1

grave geyser
dull schooner
#

wait i wanna know the timds for molotov cocktail

#

theres no way

tired adder
#

is every "setup" weapon considered broken by this group?

grave geyser
#

no

#

stuff like squirrel squire is only c for instance

tired adder
#

molotov cocktail was always nasty

#

also why does rain matter

grave geyser
#

it matters for rain armor not for molotov

tired adder
#

that feels like cheating

#

ah yes, a weapon is SS because my armor did half the work

grave geyser
#

I mean
it wasnt ranked based on the armor

tired adder
#

sure

patent orbit
#

Did Supreme Cali get her DR nerfed? I feel like she melted even easier this time (I fought Exos first and used Exo Blade)

tired adder
#

...but still, why?

#

is it to showcase, that molotovs are so goddamn busted that busted rain set can't keep up?

grave geyser
#

no its just for the sake of having rain armor numbers since nobody had really checked it since its nerf

#

if you notice theres also a set of times that dont use rain armor at all which were the ones actually used to rank it

tired adder
#

yeah, molotovs are really cool

grave geyser
#

fire :)

tired adder
#

still

#

that choice looked bizzare

#

is it because there is no tier lists for armor set bonuses?

grave geyser
#

pretty much?

tired adder
#

also kill times aren't on the doc

grave geyser
#

yeah last update times weren't added to the doc until much later

tired adder
#

feels like they should be adding times now

#

to not search them across entire server

dull heart
#

honestly

#

The entire doc is a little outdated of a system probably

#

there's certainly a better way to record it that's more sortable and analyzable

dull schooner
dull heart
#

my thought is to store it on a GitHub repo and use a GitHub site to display the data

#

then all the formatting and everything can be done automatically

#

@lyric trellis would you be interested if I was to set up something like that

tired adder
#

I did tell Gps to add testers commentary to the sheet

#

but they haven't responded

mystic eagle
dull heart
#

I could even set up my testing mod to be able to automatically export test data in the format the GitHub wants

These used to get added but weren't really worth the extra effort adding them to the doc

Pre 2.1 testing was done really fast in order to get a good class setups revamp out fast

what ranger weapon you anyone reconmend for prov?

grave geyser
# tired adder

(I think its funny that the message gets posted places but the context you have to actively go looking)

distant agate
#

im using the golden eagle and the onyx chain blaster rn

west ledge
#

is there any weapon that does damage based on how many other minions are currently summoned

tired adder
#

but idk where else it exists on a server

grave geyser
#

just a bit

junior obsidian
dull heart
#

ughh if I wanna make tierlist website

#

I need to use JavaScript again

#

ughhh

grave geyser

fate worse than death

dull heart

I could probably figure out how to like

#

use blazor or something

dull heart
#

time to retest spider

grave geyser
#

true...

dull heart
#

goodness I have so much work to do on my test mod

west ledge
#

@dull heart do you know of any summons that scale its damage with how many minions you have summoned

fathom girder
#

Sirius

west ledge
#

yes part of me wants to see if the stupid dazzling stabber bug works

west ledge
dull heart
#

Vengeful Sun, Sirius, Void Eater Marionette, Saros Possession, Stardust Dragon, Abigail's Flower, and Desert Tiger Staff

fathom girder
#

Oh

dull heart
#

Oh

#

No there's none that scale based on other minions

west ledge
#

dull heart
#

Only themselves

fathom girder

Welllllllll

so i guess this is just the funny ss then

Techbuxally

Except Angelic Alliance

fathom girder

Void concentration staff

#

That 5% is meta i swear

#

I SWEAR

west ledge
#

fuck it time to test void concentration and angelic

dull heart
#

That doesn't scale based on other minions

#

That's just 5% always

fathom girder

dull heart
#

Crap

#

Now I'm split between

  • making tierlist site
  • updating test mod
  • making void concentration good
  • bugfixes for 2.1.3
  • doing anything else
tired adder
#

make other devs do 2.1.3

fathom girder
#

Void concentration rework would make CV slightly more enjoyable i think

tired adder
#

it's not your job to fix the toys others broke

Cuz at least the rewards would be good

my beloved

vivid hemlock
#

99% of its function is just ejecting a lightning bolt and not being a spear

narrow helm
deft lily
#

i can now post images again

blazing field
#

most melee weapon functions are shooting projectiles and not actually being melee

deft lily
#

steam happy

tired adder
#

also, right click

#

my favorite

pulsar cobalt
#

theres already a weapon in vanilla thats melee that shoots lightning its called sky dragons fury

#

like

blazing field
#

How does it actually act ingame

fathom girder
pulsar cobalt
#

this is a thing that already happens

blazing field
#

Bcuz that just sounds like

#

a spear

#

with projectiles

#

which

lapis oak
#

it thrust like a spear and the spear does damage

blazing field
#

most melee wepaons already have

lapis oak
#

along with a projectile

deft lily
pulsar cobalt
#

this isnt just a modded or calamity thing

blazing field

perfectly normal

pulsar cobalt

this is just how it fucking works

it's literally the same as vanilla

#

yeah

high scaffold
#

Skytide dragoon right click actualy has some true melee stuff

blazing field
#

๐Ÿ˜ญ ๐Ÿ˜ญ

#

it literally functions as a normal spear

#

it jsut has projectiles on it

#

when did we regress to thinking melee weapons r actually melee cmon ,,,

lapis oak
#

you can hit with the actual spear to deal more damage (good damage)

still cobalt
#

its right click does actually have a trrue melee spin with it

blazing field
#

yeah thats how most meleew eapons that arent tmelee work

#

they fire projectiles

west ledge
#

if you want melee you go true melee

blazing field
#

but if you get up close with the actual weapon

lapis oak
blazing field
#

it deals more damage

tired adder
deft lily
#

i think all swords should do summoner damage

lapis oak
#

it's literally a melee weapon with projectiles perfectly normal

deft lily
#

trust

blazing field
#

i think all swords should do sword damage

west ledge
#

if you want to play like a ranger feel like a mage and tank a shit ton then you go melee

dull heart
#

melee weapons use ammo and inflict tipsy and get ranger reforges

deft lily

#

yep

fathom girder
#

I wonder if skytide dragoon can work into endgame with the whole stats rebalance across the entire mod

deft lily

peak game design

drowsy turret
#

i should try fearmonger

misty wren
#

look ever since they gave burning sky ranged reforges class identity can be officially considered dead

dull heart
#

not yet

#

burning sky needs to benefit from summon tags still

blazing field
#

please

fathom girder
#

and also cost mana

blazing field
#

itd be so funny

lapis oak
#

Burning Sky needs a stealth strike still

blazing field
#

give it a stealth strikew hile you're at it ๐Ÿ˜ญsob

pulsar cobalt
#

ever since vanilla decided to make 3 different "knife" weapons be different classes, class identity can be considered dead

lapis oak
#

also 50% effective from melee stats and 100% effective from other stats

dull heart
#

ever since 1.2 class identity was dead

#

enchanted sword killed it

west ledge
#

the only class that has identity is summoner

#

deadass the other 3 classes feel way too similar

tropic jolt

#

infernum adds a new subclass for rogue

true rogue

#

they shoudl call it throwing

blazing field

  • click to shoot projectiles (but with ammo, sometimes)
west ledge

I think a "throwing" class would be pretty cool

  • click to shoot projectiles (but oyu use mana, sometimes)

๐Ÿ”ฅ ๐Ÿ”ฅ

tired adder
# tired adder because of hype backlash

people do not understand, that this game does not want you to hug the boss at all, therefore projectiles

as J Bame said on forums, 1.4.5 mandible blade is not greater, than other EoC options, but because melee's range options have been so dogshit, it looks OP

fathom girder
#

does skytide dragoon inflict a debuff

blazing field
#

"malicious thunder" debuff

high scaffold
blazing field
#

its like thunder,

#

but evil

#

kills everything instantly

#

(idk lol but i assume it inflits one of the new electric debuffs.???)

high scaffold
#

I think it applies the old electricity debuff

still cobalt
#

any boss that dashes you is typically fine for tmelee tbh

teal olive
#

i hope that by the time tmodloader and calamity updates to 1.4.5 we get a weapon that makes the new terraria lightning hit enemies

tired adder
#

bosses, that do not make tru meme a suicide mission

it would be so fucking funny seing Pre HM bosses instakilled by a lightning

wondering if i should submit this as a bug report - noticing something weird with archaic powder

genuinely why did desert prowler and snow ruffian swap

what was the reasoning

lyric trellis

2 ranger desert armors pre-boss is dumb

west ledge
#

thats herring staff with the same amnt of slots, way less than what it is with the stabber staff, so either stabbers bugged or the herrings bugged

@dull heart which one is bugged

#

im really hoping its the herring staff i like the 60 angel bug ๐Ÿ˜ญ

dull heart

herring is technically only one minion

it just looks like 3

so stabber is actually 3 minions

Whip stacking is largely problematic yes. We kept part of it though so it's still good if you want to do it

what part did you keep

#

just the faster atk speed or

Whip tag doesn't stack, but I believe the buffs do

Hardmode was acc free as ranger

There is no stage where summoner is anything less than excellent

#

Especially pre-2.1.2 when you could use spider staff on Providence

distant agate
#

so far ive done mage and summoner, obviously summoner was busted for a bit and got nerfed but they were easily the best, mage has much much much better damage than ranger in hardmode and also has insane amounts of life steal so they basically cant die, melee just seems good overall from what ive seen

#

and i dont care about rogue

mystic eagle
#

In the current from what has been tested thus far, Star Cannon is the only Ranger SS Tier

distant agate
#

but yea ranger could legit get their hardmode weapons' damage doubled and they'd be a bad mage for hardmode

brittle escarp
# distant agate the one that has less survivability and like half the damage as every other clas...

I know I am very late to the party, but I would argue that ranger is strongest in pre-hardmode, where it has a ton of good options. Its definitely the worst beginning of hardmode (I was literally getting 200dps against cryogen, no joke), but I was still able to beat leviathan on my first try with the holofibre immolator (like 800dps) so its definitely not impossible. It really struggles from plantera-cultist, but new gear like the arc nova diffuser really help fill in those gaps. Post ML it has the superradiant slaughterer, but it does struggle a little bit for DoG (unless the reworked Halley's inferno changes that). Yharon gives the flamethrower, which is incredible for mechs (40-80k dps), and while there isn't a super standout option for SCal, post SCal gives the soma prime, which is also incredible

#

the recent additions of things like the reworked daawnlight and even the storm bow from storm weaver or the reworked telluric glare also really help to close a lot of major holes for the class

#

I used to put it as the worst or second worst class and now I would say its like 3rd at the lowest (summoner on top, maybe melee in second just because its so hard to die with melee)

#

I think if they rework/buff all of the dozens of absolutely useless bows in hardmore (especially pre-mechs) the class will be in a really good spot

fathom girder
#

hoh lee jesus

brittle escarp
#

Sorry for the essay lol

tropic jolt
#

its certainly the most boring class

brittle escarp
#

I just feel like it doesn't have to be

#

it has so much untapped potential that is finally getting explored a little bit

#

More ammo types, more ammo conversions, more crit effects, more buffs to being accurate, more charge weapons, more weapons like the starmada which are mechanically interesting, more unique mechanics like the ontological despoiler which require switching and stuff

#

More things that arenโ€™t just the phantasm or the minishark for the one billionth time

#

Like what if certain onyx blaster upgrades made the bullets home in and strike multiple times if an enemy is hit by the onyx shard. It encourages you to get closer for way higher dps, but still allows for targeting

#

Stuff like that

west ledge
#

every class is like that tho icl

#

like honestly easily the class with the most untapped potential is summoner

#

its no other class' fault though really

#

its just how theyre fundamentally designed

#

they can never be too much different from eachother

fathom girder
#

the most fun class is yoyo

amber egret
#

me personally i think the best class is generally always summoner or melee, except preboss to like around evil1 where its ranger

fathom girder
#

y'know

amber egret
#

melees just got a lot of options so a lot of versatility, and you really cant go wrong with summoner

#

you just cant

fathom girder
#

now that debuff spam is a viable thing that a buncha classes can do

#

I wonder if classes are generally closer than we think atm

fierce hearth
#

I mentioned wanting a summoner weapon that requires upkeep, something that takes inspiration from the stupid batteries in the only place it could be any interesting. Like you need to slow down to "recharge" your minion to maximize its damage at risk of your own health

amber egret
#

i mean you kinda described Feral Bobber

#

but thats all class so it doesnt really count

fathom girder
#

all summons should have an energy meter

#

you need to feed your summons for them to do more

amber egret
#

oh

#

actually

fierce hearth
#

Not literally hurting yourself, I meant like having to potentially put yourself in harms way

amber egret
#

you described Sirius

fathom girder
#

and each summon should require different foods

#

and it gets harder to upkeep leading to a difficulty curve

fierce hearth
#

Like you can't move full-speed while recharging this prospective minion

Also doing optional challenges like pre mech 2 leviathan is fun

#

Leviatitan did like 4k dps to destroyer without reforged accessories or on-tier armor

#

I havenโ€™t actually played mage

distant agate
#

so far the balancing in post moonlord feels all over the place tho, the golden eagle has been out doing all the other bullet weapons so far

brittle escarp
#

Mage and rogue are the only classes I havenโ€™t played in full

fathom girder
#

mage is interesting cuz of chaos stone

brittle escarp
#

I really should try mage

distant agate
#

mage stars rough as hell but once you get past skeletron its pretty consistently strong right up until pre-cultist where it takes a short dip imo, then stays strong again

brittle escarp
distant agate
#

i dont like rogue so i have no opinion on how good they are

#

And like razor blade typhoon

#

Idk all of my mage knowledge is vanilla

distant agate
#

the issue for me was killing fishron, my damage for him was just awful

brittle escarp
#

And from like 8 years ago

distant agate
#

so i ended up just killing cultist and using the nebula blaze, which i then kept using for the next 5 bosses lol

brittle escarp
#

Fair lol

#

I just canโ€™t wait for the 1.4.5 port and all the new whips and summoner overhaul so I can do another summoner run

#

At this point summoner is so strong I feel like it would be kinda boring

Maybe FTW?

# twin mural how does it work

enable cheat sheet, open the paintbrush tool, select all of layer 2 from a new worlds abyss, enter your original world (still with cheat sheet on!) and then use the paste function to paste over your layer 2

thorny fjord
#

Sometimes pasting water will giga lag, so you could need to drain it first, but hopefully just doing one layer wouldn't be bad
