no mine wouldn't target the enemy when it fired it would just fire in whatever direction it was already facing

That's dynamo stem cells job

tired adder

turn it into the draconic swarmer

unique warren
#

Make it look like an actual golden eagle

dusk bronze
#

that one minigun

tired adder
#

maybe even break them

#

someone should make this as donatorslop for some mod (because there will no more donator items in cal)

dusk bronze
#

why wouldn't that be a slingshot though

tired adder

#

Turn golden eagle into a sardine

#

That summons a folly airstrike where it hits

blazing field
#

mighty eagle ..

dusk bronze
#

TRUE

tired adder
#

how good dragonfolly would be as angry bird?

unique warren
#

On par with the eagle for sure

tired adder
#

oh, I just remembered

dull heart
#

It's crazy how hard mobile games fell off

tired adder
#

there is perfect weapon to turn into angry bird spam

#

swordsplosion

dull heart
#

Like why is jetpack joyride still one of the best mobile games ever made

unique warren
#

Truth nuke

#

we need to kill swordsplosion

Fuck no

Ty for the new block sheet

cunning sequoia

#

i will not tolerate swordsplosion glaze in the same house as burning sky slander

unique warren
#

Some of y'all just hate silly istg

dull heart
#

I had a swordsplosion rework idea

dusk bronze
#

they're the same weapon

dull heart
#

One of them is cool and the other is cooler

unique warren
#

Burning Sky should be slandered but it's still cool

dull heart
#

burning sky is so peak

unique warren
#

Like, the whole idea is a joke and it's kinda funny so I fw it

unique warren

unique warren
#

Uhhh close enough

tired adder
dusk bronze
#

i don't think burning sky should be a joke

#

it has potential as a real weapon

dull heart
#

Idk what folly feathers attack even does

clear pine
#

Also I'm pretty sure the mire block is meant to be somewhere in-between desert and shores bc code had merges for all the vanilla sands

tired adder
#

folly surrounds you with feathers
they float in place for a bit then home onto you

unique warren
#

i should do a musket/sniper only run of cal ngl

tired adder
tired adder
#

what else fits the sword swarm and dragonfolly, though?

dull heart
#

swordsplosion isn't even a folly drop

#

why would it need to be folly related

unique warren
#

But it's not like Aegis Blade is very golem themed either

dull heart
#

None of the legendaries specifically match theming of their boss

unique warren
#

Wait I'm mixing up rare drop variants and legendaries

tired adder
clear pine
#

Most of golem drops don't make sense anyway like why does he drop beetle shell

dull heart
#

swordsplosion but it's Bomb Blitz from btd6

tropic jolt
#

👀

unique warren
#

Ehhh I would sooner make that a rework of Red Sun

dull heart
#

nah

#

Swordsplosion is literally about exploding in the name

unique warren
#

I feel like atp it would just be a cooler looking red sun

dull heart
#

Good

#

Red sun deserves to suck

no I have no reason at all

I'd think more like you throw the sword and it explodes into rainbow swords that explode into more rainbow swords

Y'know

Rubico Prime and the Garand are really similar

unique warren
#

Sorry why is Vesuvius still dropped by ravager

#

Why did y'all not change it back to Betsy

fathom girder
#

because betsy fucking sucks

unique warren
#

And Ravager doesn't???

clear pine
#

I forgot who Betsy even was

unique warren
#

Betsy is at least not an annoying piece of shit

fathom girder
#

I don't have to spend 15 minutes doing something else to even get a chance at ravager

unique warren
#

At least I don't have to fight ravager to fight Betsy

fierce nebula
#

Kill betsy

clear pine
#

I mean it feels like a waste of effort locking a weapon behind a boss most won't even fight

fathom girder
#

betsy is a duke clone

#

ravager is a golem clone

#

I prefer fighting a golem clone

unique warren
#

Do you like Golem more than Duke???

fathom girder
#

yes

#

because golem is easy

vesuvius + chaos stone = win

that's why it still exists

I'M SORRY I PREFER TO FARM THE EASY BOSSES

I'm not spending HOURS UPON HOURS going for a vesuvius

"I HATE well designed bosses let me fight more SLOP"

I say this in reference to duke not betsy

fierce nebula

if ravager was a REAL FIGHT I'd still farm him more because I just hate betsy

Betsy is still better than the worst modded boss ever tho is the thing

the worst modded boss isn't in calamity

it's in tremor

The worst boss in a good mod

You should be playing trove more

#

The old crossover content in terraria is so mid ngl

fierce nebula
clear pine
#

At least the new stuff like dead cells and maybe dst crossover is good

unique warren
fierce nebula
#

Dungeon defenders was and still is the best crossover

unique warren
#

That's the only old crossover stuff I can think of

unique warren
clear pine
#

Old ones army is so boring and tedious

desert garnet
#

you can skip the timer

#

but its kinda boring in multiplayer

fathom girder
#

can I skip the entire thing

#

so I can fight betsy

fierce nebula
#

Kill betsy

unique warren

You only have to do the event once if you have fargo mutant on

I don't like having bad mods installed sorry

Considering pillars and ooa are the only actively unique ones lol

fierce nebula
cunning sequoia
#

theyre uniquely boring

clear pine
#

The only one I slightly enjoy is pumpkin moon

dusk bronze
#

pillars are uniquely shit

cunning sequoia
#

terraria events in general kinda suck i wont lie

unique warren
#

Moons are worse

fierce nebula
#

No

unique warren
#

Worst is martians tho

dusk bronze
#

yes moons are turbo shit

unique warren
#

By like, a lot

fierce nebula
#

Moons are the only good events buddy

cunning sequoia
#

i like pumpkin and frost moon for like 3 minuted

vivid hemlock
#

martians are so ass

cunning sequoia
#

and then they just devolve into miniboss spam

#

and it becomes unfun

lyric vortex
#

Imo goblins are like kinda well designed

fierce nebula
#

Because they’re really fubny

unique warren
fierce nebula
unique warren
#

That's not an event anymore atp

clear pine
#

Pumpkin moon is like something I do once for a weapon mildly enjoy and never touch again

unique warren
#

It's just slop lmfao

fierce nebula
cunning sequoia
#

i dont interact with any other enemy when pumpkings and ice queens start spawning

tropic jolt
dusk bronze
#

the problem is that regular terraria enemies aren't interesting
at all
like you're not even supposed to think about them, they're all just fodder

cunning sequoia
#

which sucks

lyric vortex
#

Where you have to focus on the archers doing the most damage and the warriors pummeling through but the peons would break down your doors and sorcerers would attack through walls so it's a nice good amount of variety

unique warren
#

Martian Madness is so mid aside from saucer tbh

#

Saucer is great but the enemies are AWFUL

lyric vortex
#

The only problem is ninjas serve like no purpose

deft lily
#

Uruurjffhggh

clear pine
#

Events only rlly work in like pre-hardmode

cunning sequoia
#

honestly dutchman is the best event miniboss because it doesnt completely take your attention away from the enemies

unique warren
#

I'd say Saucer is fantastic too

cunning sequoia
#

ehh saucer is VERY polarizing

#

but its pretty fun

unique warren
#

Saucer is great outside of all of the fucking enemies in the event

cunning sequoia
#

it just takes away from the event itself

unique warren
#

You could place it in a fun event and it's peak

clear pine
#

Saucer should have just been a sly boss spawned by the probe

cunning sequoia
#

ok

#

saucer is a good miniboss

#

dutchman is a good EVENT miniboss

unique warren
#

True

cunning sequoia
#

warlock is pretty decent too

unique warren
#

Saucer is more of a thing where it's there every once in a while, but isn't spammed like moon mini bosses are

clear pine
#

It doesn't rlly help that events are placed pretty awkwardly in progression as well

cunning sequoia
#

although goblins are pushovers at that point without it

clear pine
#

Like the pumpkin / frost moons

cunning sequoia
#

so its just warlocks with occasional fighter AI enemies

unique warren
#

Fargo Souls 2.0 Goblin Army is fucking fantastic btw

#

Like I can't say much but holy shit

cunning sequoia
#

hrrrrr i want to play fargos but javyz said to wait for the update

At least modded events can be better

@dull heart i've heard quite a few people complain that reaper sharks are too hard to see with the new abyss lighting, perhaps you could increase the intensity of their glowmask or something

I'm also on mobile I probably should have lead with that

But yeah that's what I kept picturing in my head

dusk bronze
#

btw for auric slammer to work in the lore, it would need to be crafted from raw auric ore

#

because adding the yharon soul fragments disables auric rejection

Only thing I don’t really care for in rev exos is that Thanatos is just kinda… there

I haven’t fought vanilla exos in a good minute

wary crest
#

True melee hunters is an experience

solemn crest
#

That’s why Infernum is more fun lol

sterile moss

All I remember is that flying and falling diagonally got me stupidly far

solemn crest

True melee can actually do something

solemn crest
wary crest
sterile moss
#

Haven’t used infernum in a while either

solemn crest
#

Infernum is like all I play lol

sterile moss
#

I’ve moved to using the standalone eternity fight mod

sterile moss
solemn crest
#

I’ve thought about using that bc it looks cool but at the same time it’s like 90% particle effects

wary crest
#

I gave up on 2 different Infernum runs, then went to death and finally got to exos on a playthrough

sterile moss
#

Then it just got too bullet hellish

solemn crest
sterile moss
#

It became way too difficult to keep track of everything

#

Because there’s just so much getting thrown at you

solemn crest
#

That’s the best part though, you don’t have to keep track of everything

#

Infernum bosses typically have gaps so that several attacks can be dodged at once

#

If that makes sense

#

Like with exos, if you’re fighting ares and hunters, you dodge all of their attacks at once with just one motion

sterile moss
#

I never studied that far into the patterns

#

However I did find the crystal phase where she sheds the shell a really cool idea

fierce hearth
#

Me against base Cal Exos when I move Thanatos slightly wrong so 10 trillion little laser poots block my path to avoid every single one of Ares' projectiles at once

solemn crest
#

If you ever get back into it, my best advice is to like chill out during bosses and try to focus on only what’s near your character

#

You’ll find that a lot of projectiles will weave their way around you if you do that

solemn crest
sterile moss
#

It’s a different playstyle than how I usually go about it but I may try again in the future

solemn crest
#

I’d say try to beat it at least once

sterile moss
solemn crest
#

The bosses feel less random I guess

#

They feel more like souls bosses in the sense that you learn to recognize certain things happening

sterile moss
#

Polter was really fun

solemn crest
#

Like the Provi attack where she sends out a million crosses?

sterile moss
#

Asgore attack at the end was neat too

solemn crest
#

He skill checks me every time

sterile moss
#

Polter works for me because my playstyle is to never stop moving

#

Hell I use moab for the majority of my playthroughs

solemn crest
#

Maybe that’s why provi was a bit of an issue then?

sterile moss
#

Absolutely

solemn crest
#

Infernum, especially later bosses, you wanna be slow and precise with your movement

#

Took me a while to learn that lol

sterile moss
#

Only slightly related but I’m not a huge fan of the infernum music pack

solemn crest
#

Oh they made it so you can toggle certain boss themes in the Infernum config

#

I like most of the Infernum themes but there are a couple that don’t really do it for me

#

Infernum Scal theme mainly

Infernum is cool but it has entirely different vibes to calamity

clear pine

only reason i rlly use it anymore is for the abyss generation

but the main thing for me is that its unbalanced as hell

not that I think that base cal is balanced well, in fact I think infernum makes it worse

Most vanilla bosses don't need fundamental changes to have engaging attacks like BoC did, so I doubt we'll see consistent total overhauls like that. Case in point, Skeletron has a good enough base concept that attack patterns and spice can be built on top of him, rather than from needing to revise it from the ground up.

I didn't say Skeletron is a good fight, just that the foundation we already have is good enough to build off of, unlike BoC which had basically nothing to work with except There's Creepers and It Has Shadow Clones

i think something that should be in the next major update is a resprite to the set bonus effects

i was thinking specifically about bloodflare

I will admit some of the post-ML set bonus vfx are lacking

Especially that one, yeah.

ashen pivot

but all of them (that need them of course) would be sick asf

cuz i don't mind stuff like the aerospec summoner set's valk

because that's a pre-HM set

Hey devs any updates on multiplayer death mode being fixed?

clear pine
#

life or death for fish man

#

heres the layers i made for the build

#

what layer to build.... hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

#

other than clamland and cnidrion bc i hate lots of building structures

rare tinsel
#

Hydrothermic heating vents!!!

dull heart
#

cnidron layer could just be part of the shores probably

#

i doubt it needs a whole layer if you dont wanna build that

clear pine
#

just gonna be full of barrel cactus and mire

#

only dont wanna bc i dont like building the arenas

dull heart
#

also i think it might be more interesting if you had the layers not only with vertical layers but with horixzontal variation too

#

at least for the underwater ones

clear pine
#

ye mostly gonna do that with polyp thats why its so thin

dull heart
#

makes sense

clear pine
#

mix it with reef and burrows

frozen horizon
clear pine
#

basalt gully and polyp forest look very similar to lava zone and grassy area in safe shallows

#

i love that the hue of the basalt gully is implemented just not the background it just looks like evil sunken sea now

#

ik what ima do for the basalt gully.

clear pine
#

no the biome with red grass

#

apparently they called the grassy plateaus

frozen horizon
#

Grassy Plateaus.

clear pine
#

ye

#

polyp forest got the exact same grass lol

#

devs should make a purple glowing mushroom biome generate underneath polyp forest

frozen horizon
#

Pretty sure canonically there is a glowing mushroom biome near the Sunken Sea because Crabulon went from SS to GM when it died.

clear pine
#

im onto u calamity devs ik ur just making subnautica 2

frozen horizon
#

Calamity is Unknown Worlds?

clear pine
#

wait is the basalt gully an actual half implemented biome? ive got basalt gully lava and lighting

urban cloak
#

it internally counts as its own biome yes, it's just the most barebones when it comes to having its own dedicated content

dusk bronze
#

how are people seeing this shit

urban cloak
#

?

lyric trellis
#

Make your own sunken sea!

urban cloak
#

all the blocks are in the latest public release

#

you just need to cheat some of them in manually since they dont have obtainment methods for regular gameplay

clear pine
#

ive almost done building a rough prototype for gully setpiece

dull heart
#

wait what ones are we missing obtainment for

#

we should 100% fix those

pulsar cobalt
#

the ones that dont have items dont have obtainment methods

clear pine
#

ill do it now

pulsar cobalt
lyric trellis
lyric trellis
#

How is sea prism wall of all things not obtainable when it’s a wall of an obtainable block, someone just didn’t implement the recipe ig?

urban cloak
#

never had an item implemented

#

heart was the main person doing worldgen at the time so i imagine she would've implemented the tiles just to generate them in the world and planned on doing the items later once she was satisfied with generation

#

though that obviously never came to fruition cause she left

fathom girder
#

many such cases

clear pine
#

this is the one and only thing ill ask from devs. pls implement a block like the bubble block to generate inbetween pools so we can have subnautica the lava zone

urban cloak
#

i dont think anyone ever considered that there were tiles without item counterparts either because some of these were committed directly to the main branch

clear pine
#

underwater lava is such a cool thing to see in games

#

could be like a steam block or something

clear pine
#

btw is the mire block supposed to be like a hazard block or something, ik the barrel cactuses ar meant to be just arent done yet

#

bc if i remember mire is supposed to be a quicksand type thing

urban cloak
#

mire was just additional flavor for the transitional zone

clear pine
#

okay good i already felt afraid enough seeing barrel cactus were gonna be like the rolling cactai

#

i think thats how u say cactai atleast

urban cloak
#

(cacti)

blazing field
#

just make superheated obsidian crafted with like 10 obsidian and a lava bucket lol lmao

clear pine
#

also here my little prototype for a gully setpiece

#

its based on subnautica lava castle

#

i resused some crag assets bc theres only like 3 blocks to work with

urban cloak
#

looks good so far 👍

clear pine
#

thinking of removing the water tho

#

or atleast some of it

urban cloak
#

unfortunate it forces that background throughout the entire thing but nothin you can do bout it ig

clear pine
#

ye and i cant use dragonlens to force spawn walls like the obsidian so i cant cover it

urban cloak
#

you'd be making it more accurate to the whats in dev by removing the water lol

fathom girder
#

great minds think alike, right there

clear pine
#

just imagine this is background

urban cloak
#

or well, whats on the github would be more accurate ig since its all technically public now

fathom girder
#

oh wait

#

ooh i love basalt

fathom girder
#

do we really have access to beta SSO generation??

urban cloak
#

if you know how to use github and dig through commit history yes

iron dew
urban cloak
#

multiple people have already accessed it

fathom girder
#

well that's rather interesting

clear pine
#

id say gully is prob my fav biome bc i think that needing a hardmode pick to mine it would make traversal earlygame rlly intresting

fathom girder
#

Betcha kiri's already combed through it then

urban cloak
#

ive never seen it showcased publicly here though

fathom girder
#

@lapis oak have you dug into the SSO generation from old github commits

clear pine
#

wonder how well the generation would work if at all

fathom girder
#

you can kill me for the ping later

#

this is SCIENCE

#

or uh. engineering ig cuz you'd be throwing yourself at it

pulsar cobalt
#

no kiri cant do that because hes stupid

fathom girder
#

mf

#

I thought kiri dug through commits the other day

lyric trellis
#

So evil

clear pine
#

ima start looking just to see if theres any more gully blocks im missing

urban cloak
#

outside of missing basalt walls im pretty sure you got all of em

pulsar cobalt
#

the only physical tiles in the gully are superheated obsidian, basalt and volcanic sand sadly

fathom girder
#

I will say

#

whenever sunken sea gets all those biomes

#

I do hope it isn't just layers upon layers

fathom girder
#

what why not

ivory lark
#

Don't

fathom girder

why not...

pulsar cobalt

itd give people the wrong idea

fathom girder
#

aw c'mon

surely people aren't THAT ignorant

pulsar cobalt

theres a reason why i havent shared anything drastic

i find it funny that the biome with the least blocks is the only one with an actual functioning biome

#

fathom girder
#

it was only in effectively an alpha, not even a beta probably

clear pine

cause like for example it isnt even 100% decided on where polyp generates

barren nacelle
#

Yeah it’s very very very messy rn

#

I’ve been reading the code and there are some really neat things in there tho

#

Like scrapped behavior with Burning Revelation where it would also fire healing stars

clear pine
#

feel like its best if nobody wastes hours tryna move the code only for ur world to corrupt

fathom girder
#

Given the pure resentment syrup seems to have

barren nacelle
#

It’s probably best we don’t touch it with a 40 yard pole

fathom girder
#

I'm a bit more intrigued as to what sunken sea's really gonna look like once it eventually gets reworked

barren nacelle
#

The tiles are gorgeous though I’m really excited to see them in game proper

#

I’m really intrigued as to what 2.2 is gonna be

#

Ozz has stated the aren’t really going to disclose anything until they’re confident with it so we must wait and see

fathom girder
#

I've got some guesses

#

in faaaaact

#

I betcha it's gonna have another boss rework

#

and I think it'll be lizard scourge

barren nacelle
#

100%, what’re your guesses?

#

Lizard scourge? Daring today are we

pulsar cobalt
#

its gonna be eow obviously

barren nacelle
#

Idk I feel like they won’t do that without scourge nest which they won’t do until the SSO

pulsar cobalt
fathom girder
#

I doubt they'll be touching any of the vanilla bosses till they fix up the modded bosses

#

like brain was a great proof of concept

#

for what they can do with vanilla bosses

#

but fuck me if the sentinels aren't the most abysmal horrendous things to ever have laid eyes on

clear pine
#

next update gonna called spine readjustment and give eow revamp

fathom girder
#

Though y'know

#

the team loves to hide huge stuff from us

clear pine
#

tho geninuely i hope they continue with the brainstorm updates features of adding a little content but mostly revamping and cutting bad stuff

fathom girder
#

if we REALLY wanna hit a home run they'd pull out a yharon or exo rework

#

but that's almost impossible

#

at least for 2.2 lul

clear pine
#

i feel like most of calamity is focused on pre-ml rn

#

with some attension to post-ml

vivid hemlock

yharon animation hell

fathom girder
#

earnest jewel
#

Next update WILL be Slime Overhaul, obviously.

fathom girder
#

that's the main thing holdin' it back and we just haven't heard of any progress for that

barren nacelle
#

My guess is if they’re keeping it hush hush they’re doing some sort of content overhaul, maybe the acid rain stuff?

fathom girder
#

LIKELY because it's either

#

unfinished

#

OR

clear pine
#

i doubt we would get this but i would like something ANYTHING on what the scourge nest is gonna be like

fathom girder
#

they locked in and got it done and the rework is in production rn

rough ruin
polar tide
#

i love watching you guys speculate on this keep going

clear pine
#

also would like to know what layer polyp is gonna be (tho personally id rather it be more like a reg biome that generates throughout the upper sector)

fathom girder
#

There's so many things 2.2 could be

rough ruin
fathom girder
#

it's an exciting prospect

ivory lark
fathom girder
#

warning taken of course

ivory lark

don't fuck it up or i'll start force pushing edited branch histories to get rid of All of the evidence

so I'm leavin' it alone

hey rlly minor glitch i found

you've seen those spritesheets right?

clear pine
#

doesnt rlly matter not like anyone but me is using it

fathom girder
#

shit's huge

blazing field
#

I feel like it'd be weird for the next update to be another big rework/adjust update like brainstorm personally

fathom girder
#

It would be wouldn't it

#

but

#

BUT

#

here's the thing about that

clear pine
#

only thing i want is a couple extra blocks for the biomes that are lacking rn and some scourge nest news

blazing field
#

my humble self thinks they'd prefer to do a content update proper; Specially with their next planned content update proper, SSO, being put on the backlog

#

The community has been craving for one too

fathom girder
#

they're under proper management, not to mention they have an actual goal this time

blazing field
#

Like i feel like even there'd be alot of backlash

pulsar cobalt
#

id like to think itd be sky update but sky update would be too big

fathom girder
#

So it won't be remotely even CLOSE to brainstorm but it'll still have the same ideas

clear pine
#

bc most of the blocks are only going to the upper 2 layers

blazing field
#

If they did another brainstorm-esque update, regardless of how reasonableo r fair the backlash may be

pulsar cobalt
#

it could be focused solely on aerialite but idk

#

could be sulph sea/acid rain update

ivory lark
#

brainstorm 2 would be eternal hell torture forever

#

not ideal for anyone

fathom girder
#

hrm

blazing field
#

Brainstorm was a very unorganized update

pulsar cobalt
#

(skybombers)

blazing field
#

and that isn't a good thing

clear pine
#

tbh devs shouldnt feel pressured by those ppl whining that their boss rush mod gameplay was extended slightly

blazing field

It was only like that due to its development history and how it came to be

we're kinda the opposite of pressured

i saw the reddit for like a couple minutes. never going on that app again they are filled with hate

It was put in the backlog for now

blazing field
#

After years of people waiting for it

fathom girder
#

SSO fell to mainly scope creep

It's not that it's taking long, it's that it was put on the backburner

as long as gorthus is still on it everything is right in the world

fathom girder
#

oh that is very interesting

#

not something I even thought about

strong isle
#

Yeah Gorthus is still in, technically

clear pine
#

ah that does sound horrible basically had to make SSO twice

blazing field
#

gorthus was a new thing anyways wasnt he, since you came up with him

strong isle
#

Indeed

clear pine
#

though it does give me more time to build SSO myself knowing it isnt even being worked on

polar tide
#

i think once we focus on the sunken sea again the lore stuff might be the only stuff that doesnt get massively redone

urban cloak
earnest jewel
#

The lore...

urban cloak
#

there wasn't really any clear direction outside of a few base concepts and just "we gotta rework the sunken sea"

strong isle
#

Our new SSO was only really derivative of the older one in foundation (mainly worldgen concepts, which were also by me, though when I was a lot less experienced)
This kinda spoiled, to some degree, what came after, though it's far from unsalvageable

admittedly i am a little nervous that, once we go back to sso, people will be angry if it doesnt visually match what they expect or if it doesnt use all the sprites that have been made for it so far. i think if the artists on the team put our brains together we can make something that kicks immense ass i just hope people are open to the idea that it might not be exactly how they're expecting it to look
