[late eagle]

That would be my donor weapon if I could have one

Much cooler than

Urgh

Marksman bow🤢

[distant raft]

marksman bow is a joke

[agile latch]

🐖

[late eagle]

Do not care😤 I hate that weapon with all my might

[late eagle]

THE PIGGY

Omg it's real chat he revealed it's real the piggy the piggy

[main falcon]

Tier 4 food item

The golden bacon

[late eagle]

Pigging my hog till I swine

[main falcon]

Exactly

[severe coral]

She sunk on my sea til I overhaul

[late eagle]

It's over man sso was all a crypto scam

Get over it

[solemn crest]

Sso tomorrow

[severe coral]

SSO Soon™

[late eagle]

We're now in the hog timeline

The hog is coming

[agile latch]

If you watch to the end you will see its a jump mobility accesory

Super vertical jump

[empty yarrow]

Marksman Bow is the best Bow to ever Bow

[late eagle]

Explode you with mind

[empty yarrow]

I mean look at the damage, the effect, you can’t pass this up

[late eagle]

It's shiiittt

[still bluff]

Dont you want more jesters arrows

[late eagle]

Noooooo😭

[still bluff]

The best arrow type for that stage of the game

Clearly

[molten ibex]

diet bow from joost solos btw

dirt

[cunning sequoia]

diet bow

[late eagle]

Every time I'm happy and excited about calamity I remember the existence of this cursed weapon and start to cry

[molten ibex]

it’s so good for its point in the game too we all love getting 2000 dirt right guys

[molten ibex]

play melee then

they got all the cool weopons

[late eagle]

But ranger is cool

I like ranger

[molten ibex]

summoner and melee got the coolest shit in calamity

ranger was my og so i’ll give it that

[solemn crest]

Mage and Ranger top 2 classes

[late eagle]

The new swords are awesome and all but it's obliterating my fps

[solemn crest]

The only thing I like about melee tbh are vampire knives

[strange cargo]

Ranger and mage bottom two classes

[solemn crest]

Boo

👎

[azure oak]

signal of the end

[strange cargo]

Summoner is the best

[empty yarrow]

Unironically if they just changed the Jester Arrows for Holy Arrows this thing would be 200% more useable

[solemn crest]

You can’t say bottom two classes when rogue exists

[empty yarrow]

I mean- Damn, Marksman Bow is peak

[strange cargo]

Rogue is insanely broken?

[solemn crest]

Spam and stealth are the two worst classes

[late eagle]

Our wretched fate is imminent

[solemn crest]

Rogue just feels like vanilla melee

Just boring

[strange cargo]

Boring ≠ bad

[solemn crest]

Yes

Because boring = not fun, and not fun = bad

I don’t play to be good, I play for fun

[strange cargo]

Oh wait you’re a chudfernum person, this is a waste of time for me to argue

[cunning sequoia]

i find rogue fun

[vivid hemlock]

this conversation vexes me

[late eagle]

I don't really like the state of the rogue weapons too

[solemn crest]

I sentence you to 1 hour of pre-providence rogue

[late eagle]

But it will be fixed with time

[strange cargo]

Tell that to the guy who beat cal with a cursed dagger

[solemn crest]

I imagine when they fully implement flurry strikes it’ll feel a lot better

[solemn crest]

Ok cursed dagger is actually fun

I will give rogue that

Idk I did two rogue runs and I just could never vibe with it

[late eagle]

I think the most fun that I had with rogue was beating plantera with spear of destiny

[empty yarrow]

Wtf-

[solemn crest]

It always felt like I could just be doing more with another class

[solemn crest]

Yeah, pre provi rogue is a rough spot for the class

The only thing I found viable at that stage was alpha virus, which isn’t even listed there

[pseudo vector]

those class setup pages aren't up to date

[late eagle]

And then reality rupture with polter

[solemn crest]

AV hasn’t been listed there for a while now though

Like pre-brainstorm

[late eagle]

It was a really cool fight

[pseudo vector]

alpha virus is dead anyways so its not like it can be listed now

[solemn crest]

Wait AV got removed?

[late eagle]

I never rely too much on the class setups, it's good to always check the weapons page for the class too

[solemn crest]

Hmm it did

[empty yarrow]

I stopped relying on it as much, but I like checking to see some cool weapons I could use and pick a few

[late eagle]

I played rogue before 2.1 so it's probably better now

[empty yarrow]

Specially if I don’t know a class that well

[solemn crest]

Yeah I only really check class setups for things like melee or summoner

Bc I’m not too familiar with those clssses

[strange cargo]

I prefer to ask here rather than relying on outdated stuff

Here as in this server

[solemn crest]

But also pre-exo rogue felt rough

Like I felt that there were zero options

Seraphim is way too much visual clutter for me

[late eagle]

Seraphim is cool tho

[late eagle]

Oh

[solemn crest]

Yeah but it makes a lot of particle effects so I can’t really see what I need to dodge

At least imo

[strange cargo]

I feel like pre exos or pre scal is always lacking in weapons that feel good enough because those bosses are designed to take forever

[late eagle]

Yeah other than that maybe... Wrathwing?

[solemn crest]

Which one was that

[late eagle]

Yharon weapon

[solemn crest]

Oh that one?

[late eagle]

The sprite is really cool

[solemn crest]

Idk I couldn’t feel it

[late eagle]

I agree that pre exo is very lacking

[empty yarrow]

The thought of True Melee Exos makes me wanna cry

I loved Brainstorm for True Melee but it only having Murasama and Dragon’s Rage for Yharon and Exos/Cal is criminal

[solemn crest]

This is kinda just how rogue feels and I don’t really like it

[late eagle]

I loved this weapon, and spear of destiny too

Other than that uuuhh

[solemn crest]

wtf

[late eagle]

Idk, supernova?

[solemn crest]

That is not what I posted

My discord tweakin

I saw a random map from the server I pulled that image from

But yeah even the rogue exo weapons feel weird

Supernova is fine, but the other one?

[late eagle]

Yeah, compared to the other classes, rogue is lacking. At least before 2.1

I haven't tried the class after 2.1

Doze is finally making sealed singularity peak too

[strange cargo]

Thats because by nature it is at a disadvantage

[solemn crest]

I’m still doing my brainstorm mage run and the mana changes are making me love the class even more

[late eagle]

?

[strange cargo]

Its a class added by the mod — the others have stuff from vanilla

[late eagle]

It doesn't matter for me tbh, I never use vanilla weapons in calamity

[strange cargo]

Kinda hard to do that with summoner but yeah I get what you mean

[solemn crest]

With the stat reduction that’s gonna happen vanilla weapons are gonna feel much better I imagine

I think something that could help rogue though is another ML drop

Since every class has two except rogue I think

[lean relic]

okay this is getting harder
red one is Polyp Forest, brown one is Shores, the cactus colored one might be kelp, so it's Burrows

[dull heart]

RAVAGING???

[late eagle]

Sunken archeology

[lean relic]

what the fuck is yellow-green one

[late eagle]

The hog biome

[dull heart]

lemon nade save us

[drowsy reef]

Wait that one step stool gif I saved wasn’t a joke?

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1021598579611144253/1361533311381405716/IczEN7H.gif

[late eagle]

Lemon😋

[drowsy reef]

I don’t remember where I got this it musta been from a dev

[late eagle]

Iirc It was doze

I'm not sure tho

[tawny spear]

how do i beat astrum deus? I got him to half health

[young notch]

Deus is technically tiered after cultist but right before moon lord

Weird I know

[strange cargo]

Infected jewel would help

[tawny spear]

bruh

[young notch]

So a pillar fragment weapon could help

[tawny spear]

let me search it up

[young notch]

But I’m not sure how good they are in Calamity

the summoner ones I mean

[tawny spear]

The stardust dragon is easy to get

Let me try that one

And then some infected jewel

[strange cargo]

Pillar fragment weapons arent the greatest

For summoner

[young notch]

Anyways I just wanted to point that out. Lemme actually look at accessories

[tawny spear]

I got that plague minions they're pretty good

[drowsy reef]

Worth noting Astrum Deus’s summoner weapon drop is ass

Don’t use it

[tawny spear]

Ima just kill it for the trophy

[strange cargo]

Plague viper engine if ur using plague stuff

Unless thats luminite

[tawny spear]

let me see

[strange cargo]

Nvm tactical plague engine takes luminite

[tawny spear]

Bruh why is astrum deus so cancer

wtf is that health

[strange cargo]

I think I just used vengeful sun staff

And dreadmines

[tawny spear]

no way that shit still viable

lmao

[strange cargo]

Yeah its getting another nerf

[young notch]

If the pillar weapons are ass and deus’s weapon is also ass then what’s a summoner gonna use for moon lord lol

[distant raft]

did cells get nerfed or smth

[thorn pier]

terraprisma or cells 🤔

[strange cargo]

Vengeful sun staff

One cell is enough for it tho

[solemn crest]

Terraprisma

[strange cargo]

One cell all vengeful sun

[solemn crest]

That too

[thorn pier]

oh hey fuel bundle cell is good for ml with hive pack

[deft lily]

summoner 🛌

[solemn crest]

I forgot where cell staff lies in terms of strength

I normally run dragon

[young notch]

Stardust cell staff is good in Calamity?

[distant raft]

cells are quite strong yeah

[strange cargo]

I think its good with one cell, dont need more

[thorn pier]

idk how it is after 2.1 but theyre rlly good

[distant raft]

their bonus attack makes em worth unless they got nerfed in 2.1

[strange cargo]

Like it scales bad with more summons or smth

[pulsar cobalt]

considering dragon isnt blatantly overpowering them in every way, yes

[young notch]

Wow

[thorn pier]

didnt dragon get buffed

or smth

[pulsar cobalt]

no its nerfed in cal

[distant raft]

ok unchanged in 2.1 cells are still strong

[thorn pier]

im talking about 2.1

[pulsar cobalt]

has anyone tried cells + vodka btw

[thorn pier]

goated

[distant raft]

but ever since they lost their best partner (30 local terraprisma) you probably need a different minion

[young notch]

Also yeah this was a change introduced in the latest hotfix and I’ve been loving it

Donor item plus the mini plaguebringers

with hive pack

[thorn pier]

yeah theres so many working items with hive pack now

[pulsar cobalt]

actually would it even be better? summoner has a lot of innate elemental debuffs that are inflicted onto ml that hes also weak to

like irradiated, astral infection and shadowflame

[young notch]

Plague-themed upgrade to the hive pack

[tawny spear]

what cell

[vocal kelp]

you might want to sit down for this one

[strange cargo]

Stardust cell

[tawny spear]

should i use hydrotherma or plague

[tawny spear]

the dragon?

[distant raft]

dragon sucks iirc

[halcyon seal]

Dragon is good but falls off hard in scaling iirc

One dragon is about as much value as you’re gonna get from it

[strange cargo]

Same as the stardust cell

Two different summons

[tawny spear]

ok ima get one dragon, all in on sun staff

and all my elemental huzz

[hoary meteor]

Step stool upgrades we're so cooking

[proper tundra]

I, hate that you said that

[tawny spear]

wait my bad it's stardust cell not dragon

[thorn pier]

u can do 1 dragon 1 cell rest sun

[tawny spear]

But they said it's bunz so why waste on a bum ass dragon

[thorn pier]

they said its scaling is bad

so u can still make use of it at 1 slot

[proper tundra]

Didnt dragon give a ton of i frames or did they change that?

[dull heart]

it's static so it doesn't interfere with other minions

[dull heart]

This is probably worse than straight sun

Sun gets more value per slot the more slots it has

[thorn pier]

isnt its formula kinda weird

[dull heart]

not really

25% more attack speed 25% more dmg per slot

[thorn pier]

ic

[distant agate]

does tedit work with tmodloader?

if anyone knows

[dull heart]

No

It doesn't

[distant agate]

bugger

just made a nice large base only for world gen to put crimson about 20 blocks to both sides of the base

should have checked first

really want to just move it over to a new world lol

[tawny spear]

bruv i almost beat it the sunstaff shred that worm so nicely

[young notch]

I always had an aversion to the summons that just stay above your head

I guess I was foolish

[tawny spear]

The fact that i have to live knowing i spent 18 stardust on a bum dragon

[rare tinsel]

WHAT

BE NICE TO HIM

he is very delightful

I'd use it regardless because it's literally a dragon

And that's cool as fuck

[tired adder]

where did all go wrong?

why post-mechs summon is more powerful than pre-ML options, that are intended for ML?

[young notch]

Shimmer!

[tawny spear]

u right

the slime staff is kinda good

[silk pebble]

@rare tinsel this is crazy bro (yet again one of those four image bois)

[fathom girder]

snipe this mfer

thanks

[tawny spear]

Oh my god mista beast

where

[rare tinsel]

MISETR BREAST

[dull heart]

Getting a ton of slots post plantera/golem

[thorn pier]

hi im mista beast

i will give you money in exchange of all of your information

[tawny spear]

YOOO I BEAT ASTUM DEUS OH MY GOD

holy shit i beat epstein

is the only good thing from astrum deus is the hide?

[distant raft]

astral ore

[dull heart]

astral armor

Deific Amulet

[tired adder]

aren't probes also good?

[lean relic]

deus rework when #1

[twin juniper]

Ravger

[rare tinsel]

the pet

[severe coral]

Lots o stuff

Basically every single thing I think

[tawny spear]

I go unlucky

[rare tinsel]

Well fight it again

The pet is MANDATORY

[tawny spear]

hell no

[distant raft]

deus dies to basically any piercing weapon :hms:

[wary crest]

Dues is the only boss that’s lagged my game so far

He really doesn’t like piercing weapons

[tawny spear]

lol

[thorn pier]

deus when vulcanite lance

[tawny spear]

what sentry should i use? should i still keep the dreadmine staff

that shit is op

[thorn pier]

yeah

or rainbow crystal staff after ML

[tawny spear]

i see

alright time for moon lord

[thorn pier]

hive pod is also decent

[solemn crest]

calmity mod

[tawny spear]

idk if i should make astral armor or keep the hydro armor

[thorn pier]

for summoner?

[tawny spear]

yea

[thorn pier]

u got plaguebringer, spooky or hydro to choose from

or valhalla...

[dull heart]

Hydro or Valhalla yeah

[tawny spear]

i got plague

valhalla is vanilla

idk if vanilla even good in here

[dull heart]

Valhalla is very good

So is Hydrothermic

Plague is fine enough but not notable, make sure to replace your dash with a better accessory if you use it

[tawny spear]

i'll just use the valhalla

[thorn pier]

good choice

u can keep using after ML aswell

[tawny spear]

i'll use the stardust armor tho

[barren nacelle]

Posthaste everyone, Abyss Rework ideas

It's dead so I can get away with asking here because I trust this chat the most

New items, new enemies, new critters, reworks to existing things, anything

Yes Doze I know, Abyss Secret seed

[wary crest]

Send calamitas on it and make a second desert

[fathom girder]

Give it more shit worth doing

[thorn pier]

stardust dies to air

[fathom girder]

currently it tries too hard to be a dungeon where you go in once and leave while also trying to be relevant for each stage of the game

it needs to be more of a biome as a place to explore, and less an oversized trench with a few enemies

[polar tide]

if i have anything to say about it the way breath works in the abyss will be killed because i hate it

[strange cargo]

I dont like the breath system, in order to get anything done you need amidias’ blessing and have to sacrifice acc slots for it

[lapis oak]

some enemies should be lured by your flashlight and attack that point rather than you

I'm just saying

[dull heart]

i think abyss breath should exist but in a way where it's not a timer for how long you stay in the abyss

[polar tide]

agree

[fathom girder]

there should be mario style bubbles to refresh your air

or somethin'

[dull heart]

but a timer for how long you have to find another "safe pocket" inside the abyss

yeah

[pulsar cobalt]

sunken sea alr has this

[dull heart]

bubble vents

[fathom girder]

you're right they can't ever do that again

[dull heart]

tbh the flashlight needs a ton of adjustment still

its basically a tech demo

[pulsar cobalt]

theyre also really useless since you only need like 2 gills potion to do whatevet you want in the sunken sea lmao

[polar tide]

it being a flat timer is so antithetical to the atmosphere of slow creeping dread that the abyss should have its insane

[dull heart]

yeah

[pulsar cobalt]

it should be that the lower down you go you find less safe zones

[polar tide]

i've said it before i'll say it again make amidias' blessing part of the abyssal diving suit

[pulsar cobalt]

maybe safe zones dont last forever either and the further down you go the faster they dont become safe anymore which forces going on the move more

[lapis oak]

excited to hear

[lean relic]

Shift-⚷ Open / Activate in your inventory to wear Abyssal Diving Gear/Abyssal Diving Suit

[barren nacelle]

right now our system is moving to be more pressure related than breath related

You're punished for rapid ascent / descent

[barren nacelle]

We actually have tweaked it a bit!

[grave geyser]

pockets of "silva energy" or whatver
a litteral spot of light in endless darkness

[barren nacelle]

I'll see if shadey can get me a vid of it working but you can "focus" the flashlight

Further the cursor is from you the more concentrated the light in the flashlight is but the less the player's radius is

[dull heart]

the main thing with the flashlight is I need a different texture if I wanna make the length dynamic

[barren nacelle]

I also designed some enemies that interact with the flashlight

Like Mirage jellies distorting the beam

[fathom girder]

wait are you a dev now crispy

or is this for something else

[barren nacelle]

I wish 😔

[dull heart]

RoY right

[barren nacelle]

Nope

Separate mod!

[dull heart]

or wait

[barren nacelle]

I've been doing hella Abyss Enemy concept art

[lapis oak]

Crispy dev no way

hello new dev

[dull heart]

wait a second

[lapis oak]

👋

[barren nacelle]

I was doing it for fun, you can catch me designing stuff in Calart some nights

But then someone saw it and picked it up

I'll dump some of my concepts here

[dull heart]

I got a question about how the abyss lighting worked forwarded from sagi to me

probably related

[barren nacelle]

That was probably related yeah

We've been mutilating Calamity abyss code

[halcyon seal]

Phantasmal Dragons spawning in layer 4 tbh

[dull heart]

if there's any questions about the lighting system or ways it can be better for crossmod lmk

[barren nacelle]

okey dokey! I appreciate it

[lapis oak]

DraeGPT generate me Abyss Phantasmal Dragon sprite

[halcyon seal]

Imagine a Phantasmal Dragon but make it look like Old Duke

[lapis oak]

horrible

[barren nacelle]

Image dump time, hold onto your hats

Concept art for the 3 abyss subbiomes and 2 of the existing ones

Tiles and such

So many enemies and critters

Oh and seashell managed to wiggle its way in there

And omega blue Sailfins

3 quest fish

More fauna

New accessory concept

[azure oak]

is that a pyrosome i see

[barren nacelle]

Oh shit I don’t have my colossal squid rework on hand

[barren nacelle]

mayhaps

Calamity hire me I'll make you guys slop

[fathom girder]

sorry my hat got blown away by the image spam

I like this

[azure oak]

goku?

[barren nacelle]

I told you to hold onto it dude

[barren nacelle]

idk what you're talking about

[pulsar cobalt]

sorry crispy but u gotta be banned now for spamming chat

:/

[barren nacelle]

Kills myself

[fathom girder]

Sorry I only had one hand free

[dull heart]

banned

[lapis oak]

Crispy the space is still not enough please separate them more

[barren nacelle]

I know I know

[lapis oak]

🥹

[azure oak]

simply make a row just for tractis' true palidinian mage-hammer of might

[rotund venture]

No Silva corpse/cocoon?

[wary crest]

He’s beautiful

[lean relic]

Holy shit

[barren nacelle]

I haven't done the void yet

[rotund venture]

ah I see

cool concepts regardless

[azure oak]

so what are brine crystals meant to be

just salt?

[barren nacelle]

look now

[wary crest]

That took 10 minutes to figure out and was far too much effort

[barren nacelle]

Yeah pretty much just noxious salt

They're meant to be an environmental hazard in a way

since no liquids in tmod

they create clouds of brine that hurt you

[azure oak]

neat

[barren nacelle]

They generate in the Tenebris Marsh which is the area between the Thermal Vents and Murky Waters

[lapis oak]

omg so awesome thank you

[lean relic]

Its 2030
tmodloader still haven't added the custom liquid support

[barren nacelle]

I just realised the weapon page is missing hydraulic volt crasher fsr

I think it just got missed when the weapons page was restructured

[azure oak]

i see no carnivorous sponges 😔

[barren nacelle]

Wait true...

Hmmmm

Marsh enemy

[azure oak]

i recommend the chondrocladia or "pin pong ball sponge"

[late eagle]

Can I see...?👉👈🥺

Water mod I want it PLEASE

[barren nacelle]

It's very heavily indev I'll see if my superior officer (the programmer who liked my concepts enough to make them) is opening invite

[azure oak]

hmmm this makes me wanna revisit my cave stuff ideas (though tbf i did not get that far with it anyways)

[late eagle]

🙏🙏🙏

[late eagle]

Oh, but please answer me this, is it a standalone mod or an cal addon?

I would like whatever it is but I'm curious

[barren nacelle]

Cal Addon

[late eagle]

I see nice

[barren nacelle]

Since it's supposed to expand the abyss

And the sulph sea to a degree

#replacingoldduke

[late eagle]

Expansion of my favorite biome😭🥹

[azure oak]

you should add radiodonts somewhere deep in the abyss

[late eagle]

Finally abyss fans are eating good...

[barren nacelle]

I'd prob put them higher in the abyss tbh

Since the acid rain is the one with the prehistoric theme

[azure oak]

there were some funny radiodonts

[barren nacelle]

true...

[late eagle]

Okay I'm finally hyped for some water content after sunken delay and EE disappearing

Today is a happy day

[azure oak]

Can't wait for "SSO on April 2nd"

[azure oak]

i think that amidias image genuinely gave people brain damage

i do not regret making it

[late eagle]

Evil

[mystic eagle]

No it made us brainstorm on how to get brain damage

[azure oak]

devs should hire me as lobotomy specialist

[winter grotto]

what's the opposite of brain

[mystic eagle]

sso to celebrate calamity's 10th birthday 🥳

[strange cargo]

Sunken swine overhaul

[steep path]

additional stepstool functionality feels like a doze thing

[barren nacelle]

I think it was Sagi's idea

[steep path]

I see 👀

[lapis oak]

doze too busy making whimsical bombs

[lean relic]

Lemonade

Grenade

[fathom girder]

Doze was the wheel that started the motion at least

With his controversial +5% crit while using stool buff

[arctic cliff]

the brains are storming

soon [2.2] will be (verb)ing

[tropic jolt]

soon worms will be storming

[arctic cliff]

im worminating on this thought

[fierce hearth]

I want Noita Matosade in Calamity

[fathom girder]

no...

no you don't...

[fierce hearth]

(creates a point in space where 9 giant worms spawn and immediately target)

[fathom girder]

I want the loved by worms trait personally

[fierce hearth]

Matosade goes well with that

[fathom girder]

yeah but like

I choose loved by worms to feel the rush of fear and adrenaline of not knowing when a worm will instakill me at mach chicken

matosade gets rid of the chance entirely

[fierce hearth]

Matosade is also significantly easier to implement

[lapis oak]

Noita?

[fathom girder]

apotheosis rework

[lapis oak]

True Orbit

[dusk bronze]

apotheosis rework?

[lapis oak]

that's what I wanna see

[fathom girder]

LMAO

yeah we all got the same idea

[fierce hearth]

LMAO

[fathom girder]

ooh this would be fun as an accessory

[fierce hearth]

However, Worm Attractor would be a really funny item

[fathom girder]

technically, thinking about it

wulfrum lure does attract burrowers

so we do have that

[dusk bronze]

@austere scaffold thoughts?

wait what the fuck

[fathom girder]

LOL

who were you trying to ping

[dusk bronze]

i didn't think that'd work

[fathom girder]

wait is terry the

is he the apotheosis guy?

[dusk bronze]

the dedicatee yeah

[fathom girder]

damn alright

surprised to see that a donor's actually still here

especially the apotheosis one

that weapon OLD

[dusk bronze]

oh he came back after the fabsplosion

[fathom girder]

oh huh

[fierce hearth]

Random chance to randomly be hit by any Calamity worm boss' signature attack (DS arcing jump, AS venom cloud dash, SW's lightning charge, and DoG's Dimensional Drive)

[fathom girder]

badass tbh

good on him for keeping an eye on the community

[arctic cliff]

awesome bio he has btw

[fathom girder]

oh huh

terry's a cool guy too

this guy fucken rules what

[dusk bronze]

iirc he programmed current hive mind

[fathom girder]

well I thank him for making hive mind preboss difficulty

hehe

[pseudo vector]

hive mind did get neutered over the years

terry’s hive mind was at its craziest all the way back in 2017-2018

[dusk bronze]

damn that's old

[lapis oak]

I'm old

[rotund venture]

2017 is crazy thas before I started playing

[solemn crest]

Dude 2017 I was a freshman in high school

[deft lily]

[rotund venture]

[blazing field]

[barren nacelle]

[blazing field]

everyone younger than me is a baby and everyone older than me is one foot in the grave

such is the way

[rotund venture]

you have little baby hands how could you kill me?

[dull heart]

[rotund venture]

anyway ravager rework tomorrow

[tropic jolt]

you are the youngest person ever

[strange cargo]

Sunken swine overhaul tomorrow

[lapis oak]

YOOO WTF

[blazing field]

this will be storm weaver in 2015

[barren nacelle]

voltaic climax rework?

[tropic jolt]

calamity mod tropical freeze tomorrow

[strange cargo]

Magnet sphere?

[azure oak]

pixelated effect spotted

[lapis oak]

I just got one recently wym 😭

[tropic jolt]

who reworked kiri

[rotund venture]

doze making peak?

[tropic jolt]

new kiriAI

[barren nacelle]

no???!?!

😭

[strange cargo]

Is that the reason for the 67 jokes

[lapis oak]

YEES

BH is recent...

[tropic jolt]

possible

[barren nacelle]

all the jawdropping brainstorm changes

[lapis oak]

BH!!!

[rotund venture]

I'm pretty sure the voltaic climax/void vortex line has no been reworked ever

[barren nacelle]

it just got nerfed 😭

[lapis oak]

Your passage of time is fucked

[barren nacelle]

OOOH baleful harvest?

[fierce hearth]

Bountiful

[lapis oak]

Bruh

[rotund venture]

it's been the same ring of magnet spheres since I started playing? I think?

[barren nacelle]

bountiful sorry

[dull heart]

it got a minor rework

[barren nacelle]

That wasnt a rework that was just a readjustment

[lapis oak]

the whole line got reworked in BH but just because the changelogs don't mention it it got forgotten forever

[barren nacelle]

Yeah it got electrified and some pierce changes

[lapis oak]

This is all @CIT's faults

[dull heart]

it changed from being ring of magnet sphere to ring of one time use magnet sphere

[amber egret]

oh yeah i heard they made a cool Hellkite change on Gfb and then they removed it in 2.1.2

whyd they do that

[strange cargo]

For fun

[rotund venture]

ok thats no a rework though

[amber egret]

but it was funny

[dull heart]

it was a rework but a minor one

same caliber of rework as Igneous Exaltation

[strange cargo]

Doze do you have $648 I can borrow?

[barren nacelle]

I think the two Voltaic weapons are the only ones that use Magnet sphere ball no?

[rotund venture]

a rework is plasma frog turning to the awesome and epic shrimp

[barren nacelle]

other than magnet sphere obv

[lapis oak]

They have their own balls

From submissions

[amber egret]

but he kinda sucks :(

4 minion slots in phm when i can just mash Imps is not very nice

[wide raven]

A pistol shrimp pistol

[rotund venture]

arsenal weapon slander spotted

[rotund venture]

👊 👊

[amber egret]

dude i love arsenal weaponry

moreso arsenal weaponry disappointment

starts infiltrating

[strange cargo]

Shrimp actually has good killtimes

[barren nacelle]

Right, so does magnetic meltdown

[amber egret]

yeah but i want like

[wide raven]

Entropy weapons are so good

[amber egret]

three of them

[rotund venture]

if arsenal weapons have 1 fan it is me if world against arsenal weapons I am against world etc etc

[dusk bronze]

how do you even get 4 slots post evil2

[amber egret]

bewitching table, summoning potion, and any okay summon armor

[dusk bronze]

without temporary buffs

[solemn crest]

Bewitching is post skele no?

[dusk bronze]

also that

[amber egret]

is it? i thought it was qb

anyways yeah you just dont

[dusk bronze]

in dungeon

[wide raven]

To the arsenal weapon scale well to calmility

[lapis oak]

Bee armor and accs

[dull heart]

obsidian armor, voltaic jelly, summon pot, one base

[barren nacelle]

That's technically post qb

[barren nacelle]

aerospec also works

[amber egret]

obby armor gives summon slots??

[dull heart]

...

[dusk bronze]

not a fan of required potions

[dull heart]

it's a summoner armor

[amber egret]

i thought it was for whips

[fierce hearth]

Yeah it's whip focused but it provides summon bonuses

[dull heart]

yeah but summon potion is required anyway

not using it cripples your dps

[amber egret]

+1 minion slot

[wide raven]

Summoner class is somehow the best and worst class at the time

[amber egret]

aka a whole summon acc prehm

[lapis oak]

You don't need pots

[dusk bronze]

for using aqueous hunter drone

[fierce hearth]

Imo shrimp is more post-QB than post-Evil2

Which isn't a big deal

[amber egret]

why not have it cost three

[lapis oak]

Yes you don't need

[amber egret]

like 99% of all other multislot consuming summons

[fierce hearth]

Bc they wanted it to fuck like hell

So it's stronger than 3 slots

[amber egret]

but it dont fuck

[lapis oak]

Kill QB and then pot is not required

[wide raven]

True mele is best class

[amber egret]

thats the prob

[wide raven]

We just dont talk about the exo mechs

[amber egret]

it gets in bed and goes to sleep

[rotund venture]

thats it, I'm putting you in the broth

[lapis oak]

Me when I lie

[amber egret]

it just dont from my limited testing

tried it on qb, didnt fuck

tried it on sg, shat itself

swapped to herring, monstrous dps compared to like

i think 96

[wide raven]

Honestly i want more magic guns.

[dull heart]

hunter is like just fine

not notable

not weak

[amber egret]

yeah but arsenal stuffs meant to be like

Awesome

and hunter is just Cool

[barren nacelle]

of all the summon weapons in phm I think Staff of the Nercosteocytes is the most in need of a buff

grounded summons just suck

[rotund venture]

?? doesnt it instakill wof?

isnt that one super busted?

[lapis oak]

No it needs to be killed

Balancing it is futile

[barren nacelle]

I think it needs to be better

[rotund venture]

I could have sworn it has insane stupid killtimes for sg and wof

I may be misremembering

[lapis oak]

I kills WoF in seconds yes

Required extreme baby sitting

[amber egret]

make the skeletons instead shoot water bolts or whatever

daedalus golem

[barren nacelle]

Man this bait is so good I could die

[lapis oak]

Crispy the incident was 6 years ago you have to let go

[rotund venture]

I'm gonna pour hot honey on you

with a ladle

[dull heart]

agreed

[strange cargo]

From today lol

[amber egret]

whats this

[strange cargo]

Thats shrimp

Testing times

[amber egret]

mm

[rotund venture]

vindication for my boy!!

[amber egret]

whys it so dogshit on grounded targets

[strange cargo]

I wouldnt call it dogshit on grounded targets unless im reading the deerclops times wrong

[amber egret]

if ( unnamed other item ) gets 30%, its doing 70% of the damage for that 1:06

otherwise it gets a 2:03

[dull heart]

the % is the amount the missiles did vs the main attack

[amber egret]

aaah

[strange cargo]

So the missiles are very essential to it’s efficiency is what I’m gathering

[fierce hearth]

Yes

They are huge burst damage

Paired with rage or adren will nuke bosses

Even if you don't like shrimp, if you have a proper summon setup for WoF it's probably still good to bring just to spend your resources on the missiles alone

[dull heart]

eh not really

a proper summon setup on wof kills it in 15 seconds

[fierce hearth]

Sigh, true

[strange cargo]

Oh my gosh if its AoE and you pair it with rippers it could fry some of those multi-entity bosses on tier

Thats why its so good against skeletron

[fierce hearth]

What summon nukes WoF? I forgor

[strange cargo]

Its all coming together

[strange cargo]

Necros if they have a good arena

[fierce hearth]

Ahhhh

Tbf investing the time into an optimal arena for WoF is almost never worth it

Unless you're going for high scores lmao

[strange cargo]

Yeah necros did fine with an unoptimized hellbridge on my last playthrough

[rotund venture]

or if you find building fun : )

[fierce hearth]

What's the fastest WoF killer for summon that doesn't require you to terraform the underworld and just needs a loosely cleared path like most players would do

Is it still Necros?

[strange cargo]

Prolly so long as you can keep them out of the lava below to keep doing damage

[fierce hearth]

True

I rarelly properly hell bridge bc I have terraspark boots almost always

[steel pike]

What day is it

Btw

[fierce hearth]

So necros was never an option I meaningfully considered

[strange cargo]

But dank, hornet w/ hive pack, and shrimp prolly work

[amber egret]

i just dont like having to spend 4 Summons on One Shimp

[fierce hearth]

Yeah I think I did shrimp with uh... maybe dank staff? I might've used the summoner night's edge

[amber egret]

i should be allowed to have at LEAST One Shimp and like Three Fish

[fierce hearth]

OH WAIT I WAS USING FISH

[strange cargo]

I mean I have 6 slots without the bewitching table

[amber egret]

(3 fish as in one fish summon)

[fierce hearth]

But I swapped to mage bc my summons kept despawning

[amber egret]

what stage ?

[strange cargo]

Pre skele

[amber egret]

where are you getting 6 i can barely make 4

barely make 3 then

[fierce hearth]

Bee armor, pygmy necklace, jelly

[strange cargo]

I have bee armor, summoning potion, pygmy necklace and voltaic jelly

[fierce hearth]

Pot

[rotund venture]

I think you're playing summoner wrong sticker

[amber egret]

i might be .

oh right bee armor exists .

[strange cargo]

I find bee armor to BEE the best pre WoF

[fierce hearth]

Bee is a mandatory kill for summoner prehm pretty much bc pygmy necklace is so valuable

[amber egret]

i forgot they're pre skele i put them mentally on the "you're gonna fight skeletron within 5 minutes" tier

[fierce hearth]

And bee armor is v competitive with aerospec

[strange cargo]

Yeah im doing a playthrough with others and we only do bosses on weekends

[dull heart]

with necros you need like 2 screen widths it's really not bad

[amber egret]

ahh

[pulsar cobalt]

thing with wof is that u dont really need to terraform, u can just build instead, since wof will just compress in that area instead

[strange cargo]

This weekend is deerclops, crabulon (bc we forgot about it), skeletron, slime god, and then any prepping before WoF, then next weekend will be WoF and early hardmode

Oh and ooa I think

[amber egret]

consider. 3 double insta hellbridges

thoughts?

[strange cargo]

Its on a server so we get to play whenever, just no bosses

[pulsar cobalt]

u can make it really tight, go full warding with a couple tank accs and just kill him before it can do enough damage onto you

[rotund venture]

sounds like a ton of fun actually

[tired adder]

can skele boys be turned into something more exciting than "moving explosive trap"?

[amber egret]

it Sounds fun but like i play calamity for the Hype Moments and Aura since i dont really like building

so i would Dislike It

[rotund venture]

[amber egret]

i am here bc DoG tore a hole in spacetime and then tried ramming me down for 30 seconds

and that was cool

[tropic jolt]

building is hype moments and aura

[amber egret]

its a required staple of any multiplayer server, but for me its snooze moments and insert sleeping sounds

[strange cargo]

I dont like building but I like sinking time into mostly pointless shit

[amber egret]

idk i dont like having to gather a ton of random materials then some paint

[strange cargo]

(Like scouring for rox because im bored)

[amber egret]

you should get all the shrines

[rotund venture]

the whole boss rush mentality old calamity has given the Terraria player base has done irrepearable damage

[amber egret]

sin terminus

[amber egret]

see this is because i lack any Fun Things to do instead of boss rushing

theres no Whimsy beyond pre-hm, once i get my stuff i am good until i get my Next set of stuff

[rotund venture]

I understand that a lot of enjoy the boss fights, and some of them are good, but Terraria is a gigantic game with a lot more to offer

[amber egret]

yeah and thats reserved for pre-hardmode

[rotund venture]

strongly disagree

[amber egret]

once i hit hardmode, any attempt to try and make me have whimsy feel like solving the enigma code

or trying to evolve my galarian yamask

"yeess put this doohickey in the thingy at SPECIFICALLY a fortnight..."

like no. im gonna go mine, im gonna go kill Twins now

[strange cargo]

We’ve gotten most of them if im not mistaken

[amber egret]

outside of void?

[strange cargo]

Oh no, someone made it down to terminus

[rotund venture]

in prehm?

[amber egret]

oh damn !

[rotund venture]

damn nice

[lapis oak]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KpQq5SE93bw

[amber egret]

i dont believe you .

[lapis oak]

using my blue privilege for a cool video just popped up

[rotund venture]

soon that'll be calamity too!

[deft lily]

woag

[amber egret]

wait no i wasnt playing terraria when this came out

[rotund venture]

also wow congrats to spirit

[strange cargo]

I wouldn’t be lying when theres two people in chat who could go fact check

[amber egret]

i started playing mobile in late 2016, moved here in early 2017, and got my playstation in like

2018

[lapis oak]

2026 big year

[amber egret]

then beat the game on that

[lapis oak]

🐦

[rotund venture]

I forgot spirit is one of the older new mods

[arctic cliff]

shit, spirit is older than calamity? wow

[amber egret]

okay yeah i wasnt playing modded terraria until like 20 i wanna say 19? 2020?

[strange cargo]

We’re missing both the evil biome shrines, rox, marble, and mushroom

[rotund venture]

right? seems crazy

[strange cargo]

World got genned with Fargo’s best of both worlds

[tired adder]

put the image from regular show, that has dude and friends and then dude and like 6 graves

[rotund venture]

nah spirit is still from the new generation of mods

even if it 10 years old

[amber egret]

rox is a shrine ?

[strange cargo]

Yeah

It has a whole shrine to it

[fierce hearth]

Yeah idk why it's both a shrine and craftable

[rotund venture]

so it's shimmerable

[tired adder]

so the low% cultists can enjoy breaking their legs with unenjoyable, limited and stale run

[amber egret]

okay found it: i got terraria on pc in late 2020, so i was technically around when spirit was in there

[amber egret]

hater mindset

[tired adder]

...that sounded too mean, isn't it?

[amber egret]

yes

[fierce hearth]

Now now the thing is for most players extremely esoteric challenge runs are unfun

Trashbox is speaking a truth, just not everyone's truth

But it was pretty harsh

[rotund venture]

terraria players love to pretend they do extremem insane challenge runs
