Any suggestions on blocks to use for scourge nest section of desert? still got detailing to do on previous sect anyway

bottom block is runestone btw

prob gonna do a stormlion area just before this tho

[fathom girder]

Put some ice in there

[stone zephyr]

are you manually building sso

[clear pine]

pretty much

[stone zephyr]

that sounds fun and cool and silly

[clear pine]

my process is build big blocks of hardened sand and carve it out with drill

[stone zephyr]

i will watch this unfold with interest

[lapis oak]

the SSO was among us all along

[clear pine]

instead of complaining abt when SSO just make it urself they gave us the blocks for reason trust

[stone zephyr]

sso aint allat😴

[dull heart]

the evil GitHub history

[stone zephyr]

i trust jeff bazos with sso

[dull heart]

Good morning cut

[stone zephyr]

also the nefarious malice dog fight you posted

lol i didnt realize after the name change its now cut

[dull heart]

today I learned that rice krispies and Dr. Pepper go really poorly together

[distant agate]

anyone got reconmendations for mech boss melee weapons?

[dull heart]

yeah lol

[stone zephyr]

rip who wouldve knew

[dusk bronze]

gee how unexpected

[dull heart]

it was worse than I expected

[distant agate]

well there goes my saturday plans

[dull heart]

Like I ate my rice krispies and then went to have a sip of my drink after finishing and

It was so bad

[stone zephyr]

what about coke and krispy

[distant agate]

well dr pepper tastes much better than coke so if dr pepper didnt work idk why coke would

[stone zephyr]

i see

[dusk bronze]

i already killed dog in my current playthrough but now i'm refighting him just because it's so fun

[solemn crest]

YOU KILLED A DOG???

[dusk bronze]

yeah

[solemn crest]

[dusk bronze]

the giant purple variety

[solemn crest]

Clifford’s sad cousin?

[dull heart]

Now do it in Malice

[distant raft]

i adopt dogs from the shelter but every night they keep getting killed and eaten by wild coyotes so i just adopt another one whenever it happens

[distant agate]

i understand that reference

[dusk bronze]

it kinda sounds like you're just feeding shelter dogs to coyotes

[distant agate]

sounds like you're just feeding shelter dogs to coyotes

[solemn crest]

I buy hamsters from petsmart and grill them in the parking lot

[distant agate]

mother of god

[pulsar cobalt]

what the fuck

[stone zephyr]

a lovely update talk

[solemn crest]

Yall never saw that post???

[pulsar cobalt]

fishbowl doesnt work with victide

[distant raft]

ive not seen it but i assumed it was anoher bit

[fathom girder]

because fishbowl takes the helmet away

so you can't

...use the set bonus...

[stone zephyr]

vanity question mark

[solemn crest]

“You know what’s unethical but not illegal? Buying hamsters at a pet store and grilling them in the parking lot”

[pulsar cobalt]

it has underwater effects on stuff other than the set bonus

[fathom girder]

blegh

[distant raft]

yeah thatll definitely get you weird looks and maybe the cops called on you but they cant do anything

[stuck kite]

fish bowl probably doesn't work with victide because victide has been reworked before fish bowl ever did anything

[dull heart]

yeah

[stone zephyr]

game breaking still i cant play this

[fathom girder]

why can't I use the worst universal armor with the fish bowl

[stone zephyr]

is that victide hate

[pulsar cobalt]

do you know how fucking peak it would be if you could use the 30% movement speed anywhere

[tulip hornet]

yo, my freind cant download new calamity version. what should he do?

[pulsar cobalt]

itd be so fucking peak

[fathom girder]

I mean YEAH it would be sick but

that's at the cost of rather terrible stats everywhere else

[lapis oak]

become a dev and change the world to your vision

[fathom girder]

is that wooorth it

[pulsar cobalt]

+5 def and 10 dr too

[dull heart]

You can with fathom swarmer in the rain

[pulsar cobalt]

thats not even counting the other stuff it has normally

like

[solemn crest]

Just change the bowl to be an accessory and you’re good

[pulsar cobalt]

victide isnt bad

[pulsar cobalt]

THEN WHY NOT WITH VICTIDE

KILLS YOU

[strange cargo]

Mmm fathom swarmer

[dull heart]

Altix already said why

[strange cargo]

You stay away from goatze

[dull heart]

We reverted victide changes due to no sso

and then nobody cared about making it like, actually work

[strange cargo]

All roads lead to summoner

[tulip hornet]

do you know what to do?

[stone zephyr]

unsubscribe resubscribe from steam workshop?

[strange cargo]

Have you tried turning it on and off again

[tulip hornet]

still doesnt work

he even deleted the file

[stone zephyr]

if that dont work then on steam “validate files” or something i forget what its called

[strange cargo]

Im gonna suggest you go to #help-advice-read-pins it’ll be easier for you there

THANK YOU

[unique warren]

Sorry I'm still on this but ts so funny

[solemn crest]

What’s pre provi true melee?

Stellar striker?

[dull heart]

That, Lightspeed, Gilded Proboscis

[solemn crest]

Lightspeed is elemental shiv right?

[unique warren]

Yeah, it's funny how it reverses the usual range stuff

Lightspeed, the shortsword, has the most range, spear has the least, and sword still has the middlemost

[dull heart]

I should allow proboscis to get melee size tbh

It has no reason to not

[unique warren]

Honestly I feel like there's no reason for nearly any melee weapon not to

[dull heart]

I agree which is why all of mine except proboscis get it

[unique warren]

Except like, fuckass burning sky

[dull heart]

idk why I didn't let proboscis get it

[dull heart]

Nah it should get it to make the projectiles bigger

[unique warren]

I mean... eh why not lmfao

[solemn crest]

Ok I’m reading it, I swear I’ve seen Elemental Mastery somewhere before

[dull heart]

Genshin

[solemn crest]

Yup

Who put that in lol

[slim pendant]

are you able to make piggy a town pet?

[unique warren]

I think that's an upcoming thing?

[slim pendant]

o ok

then ill banish it to magic storage

[unique warren]

Y'know, while I do hope they make Murasama more interesting, I really hope they don't make it anything too crazy lol

I'd prefer they just limit it to being inspired by the mgrr moveset

[slim pendant]

i wish for a redesign of the tentacle weapons but thats just imo

[unique warren]

Uhhh which weapons are those

[slim pendant]

off the top of my head shadow flame hex doll and the eldritch tome

[unique warren]

Ohhhh you mean those yeah

[slim pendant]

rn its just particle spam and it looks ugly asf

[unique warren]

Not really much that cal could do about the former but yeah others they could

[slim pendant]

yeah im not surprised there isnt much

but its a wish i would love to see from either terraria or calamity one day..

[hardy scaffold]

why does eow plush cosat 720

[unique warren]

Calamity probably will but like, I think cal devs try to avoid significantly altering how vanilla weapons work

[solemn crest]

It’s canon size

(I actually don’t know)

[hardy scaffold]

😭

[hardy scaffold]

ill try to find out

[slim pendant]

oh no no not how they work just a redesign

[unique warren]

Still, I doubt cal would do that

[slim pendant]

anything is better then particle spam imo..

[unique warren]

It's only 720 if you buy enough for every single segment

It's around 10 bucks per segment

[solemn crest]

Yeah bc the normal one comes with like 3 segments

I do get paid Thursday…

[unique warren]

Keep in mind they did just do this for one of em

[slim pendant]

which one?

[unique warren]

Apathanull, previously known as Tome of Fates

[slim pendant]

im still playing the update so i am still finding the new stuff

[unique warren]

Yea, just know that they probably agree with your sentiment

[slim pendant]

OH THAT LOOKS SO MUCH BETTER

and it fits the color of the weapon

oml i love it

yeah i will gladly take this then current

[dull heart]

A full eater of world's plush costs $720 btw https://t.co/zHHpmo8rIR

[slim pendant]

thats... actually not that bad of a price..

[tropic jolt]

together we will eat the very worlds

😋

[wind niche]

Entity limit eow plush for 2k

[dusk bronze]

how much would invoked stargod cost

[pulsar cobalt]

considering its meant to be a light year long

_ _

yeah.

[grave geyser]

priceless

[clear pine]

prob gonna go over alot of this later bc i just wanna get to the timeless shores but heres progress so far

[pulsar cobalt]

anyways dont go tank on weaponless

[tropic jolt]

one

[pulsar cobalt]

it was prety chill ngl i just couldnt regen enough cuz i dont have buffs

[grave geyser]

scions practically kills eoc for you

[pulsar cobalt]

is scions that good

i havent used it cuz i didnt wanna bother diving in the sulphurous sea

[cunning sequoia]

i do like how the base one is long enough to work as a head pillow

[grave geyser]

the thorns explosion is super broken

[lapis oak]

just bonk him

[high scaffold]

U building the SSO yourself?

[clear pine]

yep

[pulsar cobalt]

you barely have any opportunity to do so

sob

[grave geyser]

imagine if craw thorns was an explosion that also inflicted iradiated

[pulsar cobalt]

plus the bonk only does like 50 damage

[lapis oak]

L

[pulsar cobalt]

actually i lied its 30 damage

which is basically the same as one hit from fungal clump

[grave geyser]

and just for fun
craw thorns is 40 damage
scions explosion is 45

[dusk bronze]

fine

why did getting hit by the body take out a third of my health

[dull heart]

malice raises contact dmg considerably

non-ftw master is 3x classic, legendary is 5.33x classic

i think

[dusk bronze]

PHASE 2

WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS

BWU

😭

how

[dull heart]

lol

[dusk bronze]

yeah that's not happening

genuinely what is dizzy made of

[dull heart]

dunno

[rare tinsel]

what the fuck

[tropic jolt]

balanced!

[grave geyser]

Tbh after learning the fight more ramless doesn’t seem that bad, awful yes, but I see how someone could do it

[hoary edge]

holy bloat

😭

[tired adder]

it was even worse pre-1.4.4

there was just a multiplier

no difficulty increases

and I think that multiplier was applied twice in journey?

do you like
flesh?

[hoary edge]

lol?

[grave geyser]

Journey stat scaling was fucked up in general

[hoary edge]

atp i'd rather bloat boss health than bloat the entire stats

[surreal spire]

Calamity still getting updated? i got into it for the first time recently, thought the mod was like 7 years old already

[unique warren]

Got updated… last month? Right?

[grave geyser]

It’s approaching 10

[unique warren]

It was last month and not the one before right

[grave geyser]

Yes, almost a month exactly

[unique warren]

Something something master and FtW bad, something something eternity and masochist GOOD

[tired adder]

fargo has its own goofs in FtW, right

[unique warren]

Like, a handful

[strange cargo]

Mods, obliterate her femur

[tired adder]

the one I know for certain is that Betsy infects you with Twitch Chat

and Mutant shows his ass after final spark

[pulsar cobalt]

ugc goated

[unique warren]

[polar tide]

I FUCKING FORGOT ABOUT THIS

you can tell hes evil because of the man bun

[unique warren]

Yeah he looks exactly like vsauce michael (smart) but with man bun (evil)

[dull heart]

the crazy part to me is ramless + defiled both together

[unique warren]

What does defiled mean again?

I know no wings but it's gonna be more than that

[dull heart]

yeah it's no wings

[unique warren]

Are there no mounts that are good enough

[lean relic]

guys there was one more backgound thing hidden in files
Basalt Gully underground background

[ivory lark]

almost nothing about sso was actually removed except for the generation, enemies and weapon reworks

these are safe to post but i would prefer if u guys did not like make an addon to readd sso gen or smth

[lean relic]

wait
is it fine to make a addon that removes the sunken sea underground background

[ivory lark]

sure

just dont get in the way of dev process since thats annoying

[grave geyser]

On paper yes but given it straight up prefers defiled out of preference and not out of challenge it’s not a huge difference
The most it would change is maybe a slightly harder laser walls

[dull heart]

yeah

laser walls is mostly it

[grave geyser]

But also walls are featherfall victims so

[pulsar cobalt]

victide rework also got removed !!

[grave geyser]

Amedias pendant also wasn’t exploded

[lean relic]

mmm okay

[grave geyser]

Reminds me

[arctic cliff]

man i wish they added the seashine sword (hilt) rework tho...

that looked awesome

[grave geyser]

Sorry usestyle 1 forever

[stone fiber]

Bro what is this world generation

[lean relic]

rude man

he manually made it

[stone fiber]

Will it also work with the tungsten enchantment?

[dull heart]

yes

if i do that

[main estuary]

dude imagine that

giant gilded proboscis

[fathom girder]

Omega Proboscis

[main estuary]

gilded jaw

[stone fiber]

There's lore behind this emote that our brains can't even begin to understand

[main estuary]

actually would tungsten work on the tmelee weapons that got changed?

like
giant holy collider or something

[dull heart]

the ones i made yes

not the ones xyk made

[main estuary]

which ones did they make?

[fathom girder]

grand dad

[pulsar cobalt]

quite a lot of them iirc

[main estuary]

mmmm
community remix tmelee weapon called great grand dad

it never existed and was merely a figment of your imagination

[dull heart]

most of the melees tbh

[unique warren]

Damn, that really sucks lol

[fathom girder]

eh

no screenwide "true melee" for you

[unique warren]

"Screenwide" and it's like 20 tiles max

[rare tinsel]

grand dad can hit the entire screen

[dull heart]

i do agree it kinda sucks to just Ignore a whole class stat

grand dad is the best true melee in the game

[main estuary]

i still have badass 3000

that thing has like
crazy ass tmelee weapons

[rare tinsel]

new true melee tech just dropped and it's a localized air strike

[fathom girder]

Grand dad is whole game viable

[pulsar cobalt]

doesnt xyk melees also ignore melee speed

[dull heart]

no

[fathom girder]

They don't ignore melee speed

[pulsar cobalt]

oh ok

[fathom girder]

grand dad on violent gets funny

[dull heart]

go my best true melee https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/711268703991365642/1478255105563168879/143granddad.mp4?ex=69a7bbd9&is=69a66a59&hm=1382984024515bf6e944083ea61d6ded258d25ff5f33ff88a374fcac3da7956c&

[main estuary]

i think xyk melees also ignore accessory size buffs

[fathom girder]

thwunk

[main estuary]

what the hell

[wary crest]

That also includes ale right?
Cause I’ve been wasting an alch slot all game cause of that

[main estuary]

why is gd over there

[dull heart]

i wanna post that video to reddit but i'm a dev and i don't wanna post it with the dev tag lol

[fathom girder]

you will be killed for doing that

[grave geyser]

I have to say
This is about as much true melee as infernia cutter is

Which is to say

[fathom girder]

Fluffy

Crit

quill

It's a true melee sentry

[dull heart]

yeah

melee is every class

this is the melee sentry

[unique warren]

Anyways yeah I hope they change things and make it so all true melee weapons are affected by size with few exceptions

[fathom girder]

it's fucken genius is what it is

[wary crest]

Every class is mage every class is melee

[wary crest]

I just wish it was clear which was were and weren’t in game

Literal gambling

[grave geyser]

I mean he litterally updated the mechanics to specifically make it work

[unique warren]

I wish it was that and also it made any sense which were and weren't

[fathom girder]

yes that's generally how the dev process works

things get changed to be better

hopefully they patch the size issue

[stone fiber]

Where are the pixels Statis

[unique warren]

Wow yeah the melee size situation is crazy

[fierce hearth]

Melee is a vibe

[unique warren]

Omfg bruh it doesn't even work for Hellkite

[fathom girder]

Honestly I don't understand the true melee size issue

[dull heart]

someone should post a suggestion to give Special Melee melee size support

[fathom girder]

I did boss rush with just grand dad and the strat is um

flying up to the boss

[dull heart]

it doens't work for any xyk melee weapon

[fathom girder]

Exo twins were a little tricky but manageable

[unique warren]

It's just kind of a "why wouldn't this be the case lmfao"

[fathom girder]

ares used the tp trick

[dull heart]

i've already talked about it before in dev but like, if there's a shown strong community demand for it

it might happen

[unique warren]

Okie

[boreal pewter]

[fierce hearth]

The reason it doesn't work is because they didn't program size into the attack

[unique warren]

Then program it into it

[dull heart]

it was left out intentionally

we did consider it

[fierce hearth]

That simple. Now for particularly fancy animations, like Ark, that does make a lot of sense, but it should be (fairly) straightforward for things like Hellkite and OLC

[lean relic]

using Tungsten Enchantment from fargo to test
hellkite sorta works

[dull heart]

what does galileo look like with tungsten

[unique warren]

That's an odd thing to leave out

Intentionally or not

[dull heart]

melee scale messes with the visuals of things

[timid moat]

why are alll of my worlds and characters besides the cloud ones gone

[lapis oak]

AotC doesn't work because

AotC code

[dull heart]

i could make aotc get it

[lapis oak]

@pulsar cobalt

[dull heart]

it would be easy

[lean relic]

give me sec im enabling dragonlens

[lapis oak]

that's good

[dull heart]

like melee size is really not that hard to implement

[lapis oak]

Galaxia can get Legendary now so

[unique warren]

Should I do the suggestion or nah

[lapis oak]

AotC should too

or the Ark line in general

[dull heart]

it's just a case of if we actually want to or not

[lean relic]

oh dear oh god LOL

[dull heart]

there's both benefits and downsides to using melee size

lol?

that's a great example of the downsides

high melee size can make things look quite janky

[fierce hearth]

You tuned them to very specific ranges so having the possibility of reforging for a toothpick or up to a log sounds funny

[dull heart]

it can also mess with balancing of items

[boreal pewter]

Well simply making the hitbox and item sprite scale with the melee speed multiplier is easy, but the hard part is making sure all visuals are also scaling correctly and still look fine if expanded by a larger melee size. Some times it can take a lot of tweaking to make everything look right

[unique warren]

That is true but also like it should still be affected even if it isn't that easy to implement

[dull heart]

moving forward we could use rendertargets to make visual scaling really easy tbh

but that's not worth backporting

[lapis oak]

SSO feature?

[dull heart]

what

[lapis oak]

what

[unique warren]

Anyways should I or nah

[lean relic]

here the hellkite

[lapis oak]

you said backport

[dull heart]

up to you

[unique warren]

Hmmmm uhhh I mean I could I guess

Like I already wrote it

[dull heart]

none of the current weapons draw via rendertargets in a way that would make melee scale easy to implement

but a lot of them could

[dull heart]

what the

@boreal pewter that's not meant to get melee size at all right

[boreal pewter]

they probably manually implemented it

either that or because of the gfb easter egg it ends up working

[dull heart]

ah maybe

i doubt they manually implemented it for hellkite specifically

[unique warren]

Ah, great

[stone fiber]

When it's equipped in the vanity slot, right?

[stone fiber]

Wait, it got reverted?

[dull heart]

do you know if terra blade gets melee size by chance

[fathom girder]

preeeeeeetty sure it does

[dull heart]

ok

[lean relic]

both

[fathom girder]

oh that's even more interesting

[lapis oak]

idk why it shouldn't it's a vanilla broadsword

[dull heart]

well

it spawns a projectile for the swing as a fancy melee

it's like the primary vanilla precedent for fancy melee

[fathom girder]

I seeeeee

[lean relic]

heres the Blighted Cleaver

[timid moat]

why are all my characters and worlds gone??

[fierce hearth]

Did you change devices or storage drives?

[lean relic]

average terraria save file experience

[fierce hearth]

[fleet agate]

Oh I did it backwards. Poots.

[pulsar cobalt]

yea normally its happy face and frown face

[dull heart]

Why does it begin at C:

[lapis oak]

ahhh that's why

A and B were for floppy disk and outdated stuff

[dull heart]

I see

[fierce hearth]

Yeah, internal storage on PCs was a cool new phenomenon

[lapis oak]

I think if you try to change C to A or B it will have some issues I believe

is the linux file system super different or is it simple enough to pick up anyone know

[fierce hearth]

It's structurally very similar to commercial operating systems

It has its own basic level of organization and takes some cues from Mac, but I think it's a pretty comfortable transition from either

Generally speaking your primary concern with switching to Linux should be if the programs you use are Linux compatible

Because setting up more than a handful of compatibility solutions can be a nightmare, and even if you do succeed, they can severely hamper performance

(This is why Linux is unpopular among 2d visual artists)

Anyway, they told me to give you some advice. Do NOT look directly at Foveanator. Turns out, its paint absorbs light in such a way, that what it reflects back increases eye cancer risk by a small margin, around 1800% or so.

[fierce hearth]

I JOKED ABOUT THAT

[slate folio]

full size

[fierce hearth]

but that was specifically when I proposed it for GFB

[slate folio]

Foveanator shoots cancer lasers at the player

[fierce hearth]

Doze wanted Master Mode for it to specifically reference the glorpshit boss' original intention

[slate folio]

"Doze said"

[lapis oak]

you could say he was dozing off when saying that

[fierce hearth]

I have no credibility

Doze does say a lot of things

[young notch]

Such as "play roots"

[distant raft]

how common even is eye cancer

[tired adder]

I tried to search for fovenator

[rare tinsel]

very rare

[tired adder]

https://www.reddit.com/r/CalamityMod/comments/1fcupq7/triplet_foveanator_has_been_revealed_for_master/
found this

was this seriously planned?

[rare tinsel]

the rate at which cancer appears in an organ is proportional to the rate at which cells in that organ divide

[dull heart]

can we get this as a sticker please

[dull heart]

prikki you should ask the admins to give us that sticker

[rare tinsel]

so cancers in cells that grow quickly, like in blood, stomach, and the skin are way more common

[rare tinsel]

sure

[dull heart]

goat

[pulsar cobalt]

wait huh

[fierce hearth]

It was developed enough to be playable, I am exceptionally curious how it was stopped, though

[pulsar cobalt]

why does it say that terraprisma got -1 local iframes

wouldnt that just fuck it over

[dull heart]

no

[fierce hearth]

The funniest answer is "it never saw the light of day before we dumped the horse"

[dull heart]

It has -1 in vanilla

The code resets iframes whenever it begins an attack

[pulsar cobalt]

oh

[dull heart]

The 30 local it had before actually caused it to double hit lol

It attacks once every 40 frames

so it would hit once, hit 30 frames later, then reset 10 frames later

[tired adder]

me when I misunderstand the code

[dull heart]

I don't know why it was changed to 30 local like

I genuinely have no idea what was trying to be done

[rare tinsel]

when you summon it it can attack once and it will never hit again

[pulsar cobalt]

let it hit whenever it wants to is my assumption

[pulsar cobalt]

thatd be fire tho

[distant raft]

minion that you need to dispel for it to do anything

[tired adder]

what else could be hiding in sea of secrets that is Calamity's source code?

[earnest jewel]

More eyes.

[lapis oak]

I'm just gonna blame CIT for every Cal's problems

[rare tinsel]

necrosteocytes

[tropic jolt]

🦈

[pulsar cobalt]

wdym how it was stopped

they kicked fab and then immediately killed it

[dull heart]

BeginSuperEpicPhotonRipperZenithKnockoffAttack()

[tired adder]

...what was Destroyer's idea?

[fierce hearth]

That's what I meant by the funniest possibility being "we dumped the horse before it was released"

[tired adder]

was he going to get a friend as well?

[pulsar cobalt]

pretty sure destroyer was the only one that was done in the horses eyes

in terms of the mechs i mean

[lapis oak]

wait wait wait

[pulsar cobalt]

not all md bosses

[lapis oak]

was MD Prime gonna be summoning Fov too...

[pulsar cobalt]

no

[lapis oak]

oh alright

[pulsar cobalt]

md prime summoned exp rev ais

[fierce hearth]

dude imagine MD mechdusa

2 skulls, 3 eyes

[tired adder]

yeah, but the theme of mechs seems to be extra entities in each fight?

[pulsar cobalt]

no the theme was whatever the horse thought was cool

[fierce hearth]

5 worms

[pulsar cobalt]

[fierce hearth]

worm 5x as long?

[tired adder]

astrum destructio

[lapis oak]

welcome back gold purple Astrum Deus

[pulsar cobalt]

anyways heres a vid of foveanator if u havent seen it yet

[fierce hearth]

that was 8 worms wasn't it

[lapis oak]

around that

[fierce hearth]

did the number of worms scale with difficulty

I'm going to the wiki

[lapis oak]

I vaguely remembered it reached 10 at some point

might just have dementia

[fierce hearth]

I never played when Deus was just flat out Destroyer 2

having fucking probes and everything

9 worms

it was

fucking 9 worms at first

WHY DID IT INFLICT GSI

[tired adder]

because when defense blocks head hit

[earnest jewel]

Something something worm?

[tired adder]

debuff will finish them off

[tired adder]

this doesn't look good

what he is even doing half the time

[lapis oak]

bro was trying to aura farm with super speed

[tired adder]

it looks like fusion of calclone brothers

[fierce hearth]

also you say goldworm era but Deus' fight wasn't changed to 2 worm era until nearly 2 years after the introduction of its current sprite

[dull heart]

hmm

I feel like I'm going to have a peak idea soon

but idk what it is

[tropic jolt]

the age of the worm boss

[fierce hearth]

it's gonna be the fov cameo

I believe

[tropic jolt]

so you havent had the idea yet but you think you will

[dull heart]

I should give roots influx waver the ability to inflict yourself with electrified on right click

[tired adder]

throwing draedon's pristine potion at one of exo twins will make them pink

[dull heart]

and make it inflict electrified on enemies if you're Electrified (alongside the no mana cost)

[tired adder]

and pink twin will help you to kill other exos for a duration of debuff!

[lapis oak]

first 5 weapon ranking in tierlist page looking good

[dull heart]

That Z will go to SS once evil smasher is reworked

maybe S

or maybe not

[tired adder]

the twin kill time number reminds me of Earth boss rush run I watched a day or two ago

[dull heart]

evil smasher rework so peak

[tropic jolt]

"what kind of animal is that"
the humble snake: 🐍🐍🐍

[lapis oak]

I think it has been decided that doze's reworks won the most broken reworks

[tired adder]

where the person killed 40 of bosses in first 10 minutes

then the last 6 minutes was them chasing SCal with Earth

[dull heart]

I had 4 top 1 items in 2 weeks

[tired adder]

have you made Superradiant Slaughterer?

[dull heart]

No

[tropic jolt]

so thats what SS stands for!

[lapis oak]

you figured it out

[tired adder]

it doesn't make sense anymore

as Superradiant is no longer the strongest pre-DoG weapon

[tropic jolt]

☹️

[rare tinsel]

good

rang*r can’t have anything good

[tired adder]

to be fair

for some reason it had on-tier DPS with no armor and accessories

[rare tinsel]

classic SS tier

[blazing field]

doze is being reworked. dozezoze's crafting recipe no longer uses chlorophyte bars

[deft lily]

yeah idrc tho

im still in the patreon server lol

[fierce hearth]

I finally locked in and beat Calamitas

[grave geyser]

4?

[fierce hearth]

all invig using only saros, kaleidoscope and claret cannon

oh and guidelight of oblivion, I didn't bother killing OD for a better sentry

[grave geyser]

this seems fairly normal

[fierce hearth]

I felt like a god every time I got hit and it didn't really matter

With all invig there were a lot of times I got hit and didn't even bother using a healing pot

just wasn't worth the trouble of the cooldown

For a non-summoner build is Vigilance competitive with Saros? I know Saros is absolutely cracked rn but I don't know if that's just for builds focusing on summon damage

[dull heart]

starbeam rye, blazing star, spider, dreadmine

[dull heart]

You'd want one slot Saros the rest vigilante probably

[grave geyser]

spider wasnt really top 1 material tbh
it fell off pretty hard after like, golem

[dull heart]

It's top 1 in my heart

[fierce hearth]

I hate exos

so much

argh

projectile poopshit

I was locked in against Ares solo but then I coiled Thanatos the wrong way and turned bullet heaven into bullet hell

The mecha mayhem sections just aren't fun!

[dull heart]

use 143 grand dads

[fierce hearth]

I COULD

[dull heart]

Problem solved

It's about 179 if you're on death

[fierce hearth]

I should probably figure out a better weapon for the twins bc violence's damage output is dookie on them

[dull heart]

violence right click?

I don't think you'll find anything better

[fierce hearth]

it didn't feel very good, but maybe I'm using it wrong

[dull heart]

The thing is

[fierce hearth]

Do I mash it or is it something you leave in?

[dull heart]

you literally just hold right click

[fierce hearth]

ok

I was using it wrong lmao

[dull heart]

what were you doing

[fierce hearth]

Tapping

[dull heart]

tapping works the same if you time it well but like

[lapis oak]

just play WotM version you don't need to go through this glorpfest 🙏

[dull heart]

no reason to tap

it'd be like tapping to fire terra blade

technically can but no reason to

The thing with exo twins is

[fierce hearth]

yeah I was tapping against ares to proc it when I wanted an arm to leave me alone because for some reason it reduces speed so dramatically he just leaves his arms behind

[dull heart]

Ares and Thanatos both are ultra meltable

So finding a good weapon for them melts them and twins feel slow in comparison

[fierce hearth]

I was not melting Thanatos despite what I was told about Tainted Orderbringer

[dull heart]

Because there's no such thing as a twin melting weapon

[grim pecan]

burning sky is probably the closest i can think of

[dull heart]

I'd just use violence right click for like the whole fight tbh it's really good and easy to use

Burning sky isn't a twins melter it's just strong

In general

[grim pecan]

hehehe

[fierce hearth]

Yeah I was thinking of doing Burning Sky for Twins before I remembered Violence m2

But yeah it's really funny how Violence m2 just sticks Ares' guns where they were when they got hit

[dull heart]

Yeah that's bc Vuln Hex is a boss slow

[fierce hearth]

Reminds me of shooting random npcs with the crossbow in hl2

[dull heart]

It'll also slow twins too allowing you to true melee them for about 5 seconds

if you wanted

[fierce hearth]

I also don't want to make my arena stupidly long so I can't do walk in a straight line strat for mecha mayhem :(

[dull heart]

I just travel diagonal for mayhem

[fierce hearth]

There's another option I've yet to consider...

I already beat Scal, who is fun

I have not beaten the exos, who are not. There is nothing after the exos because I'm not really big on seeing how fast I can melt bosses with postgame gear

I could just.......

stop....

[tropic jolt]

😨 stop playing terraria?

impossible

[dark quest]

exo is genuinely this bad

[fierce hearth]

Critically acclaimed MMORPG Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn with free trial up to level 70 including award winning expansions Heavensward and Stormblood has finished updating...

I could also start another run to try the new ranged and rogue gear because I skipped them entirely this run

[tropic jolt]

people I promise this fantasy will be the final one!! I swear!!

[fierce hearth]

this joke is so trite literally the creator of the franchise has made it

[tropic jolt]

its just depressing

how much money can we suck out of this beloved franchise this year

[lapis oak]

play with WotM 🥹

[fierce hearth]

Can I just plug it in now or will it do anything weird to my world/character

[lapis oak]

yes you can just enable it and go

[fierce hearth]

https://youtu.be/xuWkvyeAu0E?si=KYLkYdcYGO6NeVph [Mega64 video staring Sakaguchi]

[lapis oak]

it only modifies Exo fight

[fierce hearth]

I will give it a go!

later

I actually do wanna play XIV

lmao

[wicked halo]

WoTM is great.

I love it.

[lapis oak]

glad to have WotM until the fated Exo rework

[dull heart]

lame

[wet flicker]

does anyone know how to fix dazzling stabber bug?

[dull heart]

wait for a hotfix to come out

[wet flicker]

i’m doomed 💔💔💔

[dusk bronze]

use virid vanguard

[dull heart]

Can just use another minion until then

[distant raft]

you can use virid vangard in the meantime

its not like youre locked outof everything except dazzling stabber until post polter

[wet flicker]

let me look into that

[dull heart]

virid Vanguard needs some whip swap tests it's probably absurd with that

[distant raft]

hell im pretty sure snake eyes is just as easy to use and is stronger

[wet flicker]

i was trying to use stellar torrus staff bc i’m following this guide but it was so bad

[dull heart]

probably not stronger

Stabber is pretty strong

[distant raft]

S tier strong?

[dull heart]

video guides in general suck

[grave geyser]

torus vs what, dog?

[dull heart]

I think it got a slight nerf though

[distant raft]

oh damn

[dusk bronze]

reasonable scal time

[fierce hearth]

Oh I should actually go back at some point and test if post-nerf igneous still does over 50% of Aquatic Scourge's hp in a single adren+rage m2

[distant raft]

2.0.7.2 was like what mid B right

[wet flicker]

so what’s best summoning against dog

[dusk bronze]

there is no best

[fierce hearth]

Sirius is a really solid choice still I believe, so long as you have enough slots or bring another stratus weapon

[hoary edge]

viable*

[lapis oak]

I should

I should do a nohit DoG with Virid

sounds fun

[clear patrol]

Did they buff infernum dog? Last phase feels different but idk

[distant raft]

inf is unchanged

[clear patrol]

Feel like the dashes gets faster and faster the lower hp it has

[distant raft]

that was a thing before

[clear patrol]

ah

[distant raft]

though usually not seen due to often beating p3 in one cycle

[clear patrol]

got caught offguard 3 times with the timings

low dmg on rogue

so took a few of t hem

[distant raft]

are you using the old reaper

[clear patrol]

nha

Sealed Singularity

[dull heart]

Probably Virid Vanguard

[clear patrol]

but just beat it

[dull heart]

Especially if you use the secret tech of

Use the active thens wap to a whip mid active

Then swap back to vanguard as soon as the active ends

[clear patrol]

damn they changed the sell value of cosmilite bars

bruhhh

[distant raft]

i just assumed the active needed it to be constantly used

[dull heart]

pretty sure it doesn't force you to keep holding the item

Once it's started

[lapis oak]

you can swap to whip mid active the hell

didn't know that

[dull heart]

I think so

[clear patrol]

Is there anything else that i can but and sell to make a few hundred plat lol

since cosmilite doesnt work now

[kindred night]

Get a bunch of mana flowers and sell them to m*ge players

[distant raft]

moons

moons give money FAST

[clear patrol]

?

what moons

[dusk bronze]

pumpkin and frost

[clear patrol]

ahhh

alr

[distant raft]

especially when you pop a ceaseless hunger potion once a minute or so

[clear patrol]

have the mod where 30stack is perma so thats nice atleast

[wet flicker]

yo the virid vanguard is sick lmao

[fathom girder]

it's weirdly viable for a long time too

thanks to debuff focused setups

[lapis oak]

(2 out of 4 final bosses are weak to Sickness)

[fathom girder]

and that

[wet flicker]

is it supposed to only have one summon going toward it though? like the main dps is off the ability or what?

[fathom girder]

wdym

the axes hover around you

the swords go out

and then the spin uses everything

it kinda wants you to play close

[lapis oak]

you should have an even split of Axe and Sword

[dull heart]

If you only have 3 minions then yeah only one sword

[lapis oak]

if the initial summon is off balance then after you use the active attack it'll reset to the even split again

[dull heart]

if you have 12 like a full summoner build then 6 are swords and 6 are axes

Virid gets a lot of bonus damage from being close to enemies and of course from the active

[wet flicker]

i see i see i thought it was only one but it’s all the swords going after it now

[dull heart]

yeah

That's what it's supposed to do

The active attack does add a ton of damage though

[lapis oak]

oops

equipped sprite for Moon Walkers is still the old one

it didn't change

[dull heart]

oop

[lethal trail]

okay

[fathom girder]

well go get it

[lethal trail]

casually clips out of the bounds of the world

[lapis oak]

damn many are still missing their pages

[fierce hearth]

Furniture lowass priority

Fucking bossrush mod

[polar tide]

im sleepy

[lapis oak]

hmmm cactus

they so round

[fierce hearth]

Livks them

[barren nacelle]

They technically exist in game but can’t be placed

I wrote the code to place them down, I posted it somewhere in here

Look up BarrelCactusEcho

[solemn crest]

Dang I am not used to the abyss being on the right side

Would be really silly if profaned temple could spawn on the left in Infernum

Mirrored profaned guardians would be so cursed

[amber furnace]

get item magnet

[lethal trail]

its a bit late

[proud plover]

@barren nacelle is the future content doc still being turned into a website?

[barren nacelle]

Eh prob not, since brainstorm released its need has since kinda diminished

[echo pier]

Does hand of creations increased mining speed stack with archaic powders mining speed?

[lapis oak]

Yes

[echo pier]

Nice

[lapis oak]

Mining Speed has a cap tho

[echo pier]

Like?

[lapis oak]

I'll assume that you will reach the cap pretty quick with those items

[tropic jolt]

the cap depends on the speed of the pickaxe

[rancid pagoda]

well, ancient chisel and by extension hand of creation were nerfed by Calamity

[deft lily]

wake up

[polar tide]

euwahuheh

[deft lily]

harry how could you

😠

must've been the wind

[echo pier]

The stronger the mining power, the more mining speed buffs it can contain?

[tropic jolt]

the opposite

but its based on mining speed not mining power

[eager zealot]

yo does anyone know if theres a mod on tmod that adds the new summoner reforges

[dusk bronze]

extremely wrong channel

[fierce hearth]

So I just had a thought

Why did we make Old Duke if Yharon was already Duke Fishron 2

[tropic jolt]

🐴

[lapis oak]

🐴

[dusk bronze]

🐴

[fierce hearth]

LMAO

[tropic jolt]

the horse

[ivory lark]

more concept artists would probably be accepted. i havent seen your art around tho

necro

[fierce hearth]

It's just so funny how his dedication to vanilla AI made so many bosses just clones, which made bosses that were more explicit references even stranger

[rancid pagoda]

mining speed has a hard cap of +70%, it's not too hard to reach in Calamity

[obtuse hawk]

I'd have to fulfill a standard too, most likely

which I'm unsure if i'm there yet

[fathom girder]

Concept artists when they have to sprite

[obtuse hawk]

I mean I can sprite

[ivory lark]

idk if theres a standard. you just have to appeal to the existing concept artists

[tropic jolt]

concept artists sealed and betrayed in the fish chamber for 9999 years

[dusk bronze]

story of old duke:
fabsol wanted an optional challenge where fighting duke fishron in the sulphur sea was harder and gave you more treasure bags
a new sprite was made
he scope creeped it into an entire unique boss and told anyone who disagreed to go fuck themselves

[fathom girder]

that's funny

[fierce hearth]

You're fucking with me

[dusk bronze]

nope

[fathom girder]

very on-par with what fab would do

[obtuse hawk]

the fish is arriving

[ivory lark]

the fish tank has been drained and will not be refilled for a while

[obtuse hawk]

aw

[dusk bronze]

it's also why aquatic scourge exists

it was originally a desert scourge resprite

[tropic jolt]

does this mean amidias breached containment

[ivory lark]

yes

[fathom girder]

oh no

[tropic jolt]

oh no...

[ivory lark]

amidias is real now

[barren nacelle]

I’m curious what kind of concept art do you guys need

[ivory lark]

we forgot to tell you guys

[fierce hearth]

Look Aqua's addition was far earlier in the mod's life and before a lot of like, more intentional design was being expected of it

[barren nacelle]

I know tofus taken the mantle of like environmental design

[fathom girder]

We need more concept art for yharim punching a table

[dusk bronze]

[barren nacelle]

True…

[ivory lark]

tofu is going to uni soon and idk if alex will take up environmental shtuff entirely

[fierce hearth]

Old Duke's addition was well into the "we might actually have a plan" era though they evidently DIDN'T have a plan, because if anyone had the sense to have forethought, the Horse would ignore the idea until it got too loud and then say "no"

[ivory lark]

well. tofu is In uni

and busy

[barren nacelle]

Yeah…

[obtuse hawk]

right now I don't have much to do

[fathom girder]

thanks OPM

[barren nacelle]

I’d love to join the team but I really do have to up my rendering like that’s my biggest issue

[obtuse hawk]

same

the grind must continue

[barren nacelle]

Like environmental and creature design are my specialty but Idk if I meet quality standards just yet

I gotta lock in chat

[ivory lark]

the cal team also shed a dozen devs who were inactive for years if you didnt notice so there might be openings for artists in general

[dusk bronze]

orios would be a goated concept artist tbh

[obtuse hawk]

interesting

[barren nacelle]

Orios would awesome dude but they’re pretty busy

[dusk bronze]

unfortunate

[fierce hearth]

I like drawing but I do not have the chops to do it professionally. Maybe one day I'll post some fanart but I couldn't tell you what of

[obtuse hawk]

looked through his recent stuff in the art server, actually not bad at all

[barren nacelle]

Im curious will the artist dev intro system change to like some sort of post on CalArt or are y’all sticking with the “hey you’re cool join the team” system

Simplified obv but you know what I mean

Are you setting up an application system there that phrases it better

[dusk bronze]

also these are sick

[obtuse hawk]

i agree

[tropic jolt]

woah

[obtuse hawk]

what's the third one

[dusk bronze]

dog

[obtuse hawk]

I see

kind of reminds me of new Desert Scourge

imagine fistfighting DoG

[dull heart]

There are no plans to do so that I am aware of

[fathom girder]

these go hard wtf

[obtuse hawk]

throw astronomical hands

[hard copper]

Is the first one a god? It has the aura thing

[dusk bronze]

slime god yeah

[fathom girder]

I wasn't expecting that to be slime god

thought it'd be an evils 2 boss or sumn

[hard copper]

Ah that makes sense

[obtuse hawk]

perforators but quirky

[deft lily]

do i get in

[fathom girder]

Not enough glue

[deft lily]

[fathom girder]

not an accurate enough image

[ivory lark]

what is that

[deft lily]

ares

[fathom girder]

You have no idea how much glue draedon has to put on ares to keep him up on the top of your screen

[tropic jolt]

such a beautiful... uhh... fish

perfect for sso

[deft lily]

^

[ivory lark]

ares blueprint

[deft lily]

true

[obtuse hawk]

slightly purple outline

it's odious warprime

[ivory lark]

draw fovenator next

[fathom girder]

NO

antenizer

foveanator should be truly lost media cuz it sucks

[craggy wagon]

dog with dragon-like elements >>>

[fathom girder]

antenizer is the real peak

that's just alatreon

[dusk bronze]

true

[barren nacelle]

Got it so I just gotta draw enough for someone to notice and reach out

To the mines

I go

[fathom girder]

don't break yourself

true art comes with time or whatever

[barren nacelle]

True art comes from yearning

I’ll simply adapt

[fathom girder]

okay that just sounds weird but

I get the point

did you yearn for the calamity as a child

[obtuse hawk]

calamity fungus update

[fathom girder]

calamity CHUNGUS update

[atomic delta]

hey guys, which is the best true melee weapon against wall of flesh? the guide of class setups says dark lance but it feels like it is kinda weak than Auger

[barren nacelle]

It’s been like a dream since I was 14 so I mean I guess technically

[obtuse hawk]

hmm

[fathom girder]

I used old lord's claymore vs wof

[obtuse hawk]

should I make a perforator redesign for fun

[fathom girder]

Oh oh I also used the uh

[surreal glacier]

Auger/Sausage Maker

[deft lily]

you're welcome

[fathom girder]

uhhhhhhhhhhh

[surreal glacier]

Night's Edge for comfort

[fathom girder]

the demon oathsword

or whatever

[atomic delta]

ty ty

[fathom girder]

I used that with the claymore and wof died pretty quick

[obtuse hawk]

Bladecrest Oathsword?

[fathom girder]

yes

[ivory lark]

awesome. exos rework is saved

[fathom girder]

that one

[deft lily]

w

[atomic delta]

okie, I think that Im gonna use the auger, tysm

[obtuse hawk]

new bladecrest actually kinda cool

[fathom girder]

Bladecrest is alright, it gets way better with the claymore tho

cuz they still do the combo

it's really cool

[ivory lark]

truthfully i expected there to be a harassment campaign around it because of youtubers but it didnt have that effect

[atomic delta]

old lord claymore is awesome

[ivory lark]

old lord especially i expected to have a harassment campaign

[fathom girder]

Does claymore still have the bug that deals 50% more damage when you hold right click

because it's just a reskinned basher

or was that fixed

[ivory lark]

wut

[fathom girder]

Okay so

[ivory lark]

report it #1052323733961977947

[fathom girder]

Old lord's claymore had a bug on 2.1 release where it kept basher's right click effect for whatever reason

oh doze already knew about it

[atomic delta]

I think that they fixed it

[fathom girder]
