Those weapons did not get reworked into peak, fun, powerful items to be slandered like this

Shrimp seems very powerful unless I’m missing something

calamity mod

knotty siren
#

The sunken sea is still being updated eventually right?

Only asking because the biome is one of my favorite areas in the mod but after hardmode I almost never go there

hasty tangle
#

yes

#

but its not gonna be the next update

knotty siren
#

Yay

Because I know at one point they were gonna get resprited right?

#

Unless I’m remembering wrong

tropic jolt
#

sunken sea is still planned to be reworked and that does include giant clam

#

but it probably wont happen for a while

knotty siren
#

Alr

tropic jolt
#

calamity fables on the other hand is releasing their version of the sunken sea relatively soon

#

The sea when it's sunken

knotty siren
#

Well it does have the slam but my point still stands

dusty tinsel
#

I may give fables a shot one day

#

When I get back to playing terraria on my own lol

knotty siren
#

And I’ve been sick

dusty tinsel
#

I think I have a playthrough for calamity I started after brainstorm that I made a world for did some stuff and haven't played since

#

The last time I played it was vanilla with my brother and I kept getting rare drops

#

And he didn't

knotty siren
echo pier
#

There is an issue with skeletron in multiplayer, when in death mode the fight and AI of it are basically vanilla

#

in singleplayer it has death mode changes as it should be

#

but skeletron when in multiplayer, does not get revengeance, death or malice changes

#

this is happening since the brainstorm update, i want the devs to check this out

lyric trellis
#

That’s known and intentional

echo pier
#

why though?

tropic jolt
#

its calamity ai breaks in multiplayer

#

causes it to despawn usually

thorn pier
signal imp
#

i believe it was desyncing really hard

#

bc of ai reasons

#

client vs host conflicts

polar tide
#

not even desyncing

#

it would just fly away

#

making it impossible to kill on tier

muted cliff
# echo pier why though?

as 20 other people will say after this, and has been said, programming a boss to work on multiplayer is very difficult, it is a pain in the ass to do and make it work as flush as possible to be as close as it would be to singleplayer

pulsar cobalt
#

was there a specific reason it wasnt reverted to like

#

2.0.3

muted cliff
pulsar cobalt
#

yea

#

mp ai was broken in 2.0.4 iirc

solid badge
#

Do we have any idea when tmodloader itself will update to 1.4.5, therefore allowing calamity to get the changes as well? Sorry if this isn't relevant, I couldn't find an answer online

spiral jewel
#

Usually takes a while

solid badge
#

Dang, do the official devs help the tmodloader devs or do they just have to do it on their own?

spiral jewel
#

I wouldn't have a clue, sorry but there's no telling when it'll update

earnest jewel
#

tModloader is not made by Relogic.

solid badge
spiral jewel
#

They've probably had communication in the past but I seriously doubt the official Devs help with tmodloader development and updates

dull heart
#

They do

#

At least two tmod developers got hired by relogic

#

I think

#

I know for sure ChickenBones was hired by relogic and helps manage tmod

sand dome

Tmodloader is

i do im trying to deposit into it

are there storage units connected to it

stiff totem

uh no i thought u only needed a storage heart?

hasty tangle

no

the storage heart is just how you interact with the things youve stored

Hey question

thorny fjord

#

when something says an items stealth strike damage modifier is, say, 30%, does that mean the stealth strike projectile only deals 30% of the original damage or does that mean it deals an additional 30%

@oak niche Were you aware of this? and is there a particular story behind this? Nvm, looks like you already knew, sorry about the ping!

#

fun fact brainstorm removed the first 2 coral piles in this image.

#

they did add a new one tho

blazing field
#

I find it a bit odd how basically every rogue weapon ever was turned nonconsumable

#

for some of them it makes sense but

#

its specially odd with something like plaguenade

#

theyre a direct upgrade to beenades and are crafted from an extremely common material (plague fuel canisters)

#

so its not like,

#

them being consumable was really a issue

#

and it's just rather odd to have a consumable weapon turn nonconsumable

#

the same can be said for nasty cholla like

#

really. the cactus weapon. that you craft with cactus

#

the only one tat seems to remain consumable is throwing brick

kindred night
#

Throwing brick is still consumable btw

blazing field
#

yeah which is so odd to me

kindred night
#

what goes on in the mind of a calamity dev?

blazing field
#

iron tomahawk or whatever too. you craft these with iron bars that's a incredibly common material

barren nacelle
blazing field
#

Wulfrum knives too like

#

they don't even use energy cores it's just scrap

#

I really don't get it

barren nacelle
#

Awesome sprite

blazing field

(100 + 25 + 25) * 2

#

Cuz like

rough vine
#

rogue's consumable niche was like draedon charge

severe coral
grave geyser
#

where are you getting 2.75 from

barren nacelle
#

Or multiplicative for some

severe coral
#

Wait a second

barren nacelle
#

But they stack

grave geyser
#

the only multiplicitive debuff booster is natural weakness/resistance

barren nacelle
#

That's what I mean

severe coral
#

Oh ok so...

#

Irradiated doubles damage normally

#

But Scions makes it 2.75x if an enemy is sick and irradiated

#

ok ok ok

#

Then that is doubled if the enemy is weak?

grave geyser
#

yes

severe coral
#

dayum

#

So sickness debuffs are...

#

9.625x more effective than with no buffs and on a normal enemy

severe coral
#

I'm pre-golem

barren nacelle
#

+50% sickness

severe coral
#

But yes that can add to the levels of straight re

#

(100% (Default) + 50% (Toxic Heart) + 50% (Evergreen Gin) + 25% (Corrosive Spine)) * 2 (Weak to Sickness) * 2.75 (Irradiated by Corrosive Spine and with Scions Curio)

#

1237.5% effectiveness

dull heart
#

no

severe coral
#

Oh?

dull heart
#

irradiated is additive

pulsar cobalt
#

no its *3

grave geyser
dull heart
#

if they're weak and you have irradiated with curio and toxic heart

#

50 dps

severe coral
#

Ok so uhh...

dull heart
#

50 * 2 * (1 + 1.75 + 0.5)

#

all debuff boosters except natural weakness/resistance are additive to each other

severe coral
#

2 from weakness, 1.75 from... Curio?

dull heart
#

yes

#

+175% sickness debuff dmg

severe coral
#

Oh

#

Yeah cuz

dull heart
#

Increases its sickness debuff multiplier from 2x to 2.75x
this wiki link is not really right

dull heart
#

2.1 changed it

severe coral
#

fuuuck

dull heart
#

now they're all just additive +100%

severe coral
#

I mean kinda fair but also >:'(

#

I love my debuffs

#

Irradiated normally adds 100% but Scions changes it to 175% got it

#

SO

#

My summoner buddy, Pre-Golem...

#

Let's say 10 minion slots

grave geyser
#

oh wait are you using sage poison

dull heart
#

25 viral sprout dps per slot?

grave geyser
#

that only gets 25% of natural weakness

dull heart
#

Sage Poison gets less effect from weakness and reistances

#

1.25x instead of 2x

severe coral
#

Only resistances

#

I checked

dull heart
#

it is both

#

i coded it myself

grave geyser
#

no its definitely both

severe coral
#

What

grave geyser
#

if it wasnt both analev would have exploded when I used it

severe coral
#

It literally started dealing 1.5x damage

#

And also lame

barren nacelle
#

what was that

dull heart
#

which is it being unviable on golem and aureus

#

and only viable on levi/ana

grave geyser
#

but yes

dull heart
#

true

severe coral
#

I just think the small item-specific exceptions are kind of bs

grave geyser
#

also yharon would get turned to ash by virid

#

so lol

dull heart
#

as a whole the system needs to just be reduced in power

severe coral
#

Like how basically all PML bosses take %s of damage against weapons that would normally be great against them

dull heart
#

or be removed entirely

severe coral
#

No fun allowed 💔

#

Fun detected
Exterminating

dull heart
#

well, specifically weakness/resistance on enemies

#

types would still exist for boosters and burrower and such

grave geyser
dull heart
#

^

#

many weapons with resists still explode thanatos

severe coral
dull heart
#

like dragon rage does what, 40% dmg?

severe coral
#

It seems so...

grave geyser
#

trippling the health does the second problem

severe coral
#

idk

dull heart
grave geyser
#

where anything that doesnt melt him is just ass against him

severe coral
#

Ok then don't use them idk

dull heart
#

DoG doesn't need resistances as bad as thanatos because of his segment DR

severe coral
#

I wouldn't want to use Arataxia anyways

pulsar cobalt
#

ok but now u have like 6 items that u have to use on thanatos now

dull heart
#

imo segment DR is like the best way to balance worms out

#

specifically the not-100%-dr

grave geyser
dull heart
#

yeah

severe coral
#

Dragon Rage would be wildly more balanced if it didn't summon like a billion splash damage projectiles

grave geyser
#

and then on non worms if they get a resist its usually because that weapon was a warcrime on that boss in particular

severe coral
#

It still deals an insanely higher amount of damage than all other Post-Yharon items

#

Regardless of target cuz it's "True Melee"

dull heart
#

it also can't hit the bosses normally

#

so it needs that dmg to balance it out

#

if it didn't do so much damage it would be entirely useless

grave geyser
severe coral
fierce hearth
#

Having weapons with specialized roles is what makes them fun and unique. I don't mind if some weapons are braindead obvious choices for certain targets as long as they aren't completely polarizing (which tripling a boss' hp to remove weapon specific DR would do)

dull heart
#

^

dull heart
#

resists are the best way to get that system

severe coral
#

Thanatos 8MHP

dull heart
#

if we didnt' have reisist it wouldn't be just specialized roles

#

it would be you must use this weapon

fierce hearth
#

Yeah precisely

grave geyser
#

I wonder what the funniest case of a resist removal would be at this point

severe coral
#

That's better than spamming a single weapon the whole time I think

grave geyser
#

probably corrinth or drage

fierce hearth
#

Dragon Pow being the obvious Thantos killer is fine because it's not the only way to kill Thanatos

dull heart
#

so

#

well, ignore orderbringer

grave geyser
#

very few weapons are good on all 3 exos

severe coral
fierce hearth
#

Weapons being unbalanced in a way that's fun and engaging! Wowie

grave geyser

It's fun bc it can also be used as a support weapon if you don't like the m2

grave geyser

#

severe coral
#

No offense but how do matchups that unbalanced slip through testing

grave geyser
#

the funny

severe coral
#

Bro like WHAT

#

WHAT IS THAT

grave geyser
#

tbf

#

this weapon was bugged on release

dull heart
grave geyser
#

and didnt do magic damage

dull heart
#

and bugged on release

grave geyser
#

it was not this strong pre bugfix

fierce hearth
#

I liked using HDRS as a pocket button while primarily using MoI as my primary damage

#

Since the m1 portal stays open after swapping weapons

dull heart
#

HDRS is like, pretty balanced on yharon

grave geyser
#

rn I believe the exos speedkill for this patch is like, 48 seconds using hdrs for 2/3 of the mechs

grave geyser
dull heart
#

oh

#

did the bugfix give it the ability to crit and it didn't before

#

that'd make sense

grave geyser
grave geyser
dull heart
#

yeah but that's pointer being silly

fierce hearth
#

Lmao

severe coral
#

Does HDRS not lose a lot of damage on hit with enemies?

grave geyser
#

its subject to pierce resist yeah

fierce hearth
#

I also realized I messed up things in my brain and was referring to a different weapon sorry for contributing less than 0 information to the conversation

severe coral
#

Seems like a pretty good fix

#

Wait I thought that was already a mechanic in Cal?!?!

dull heart
#

yeah

severe coral
#

It's just...

#

Still that good?

grave geyser
#

yeah

dull heart
#

yes

severe coral

#

hmm

Add jojos things for next update 😜

severe coral
fierce hearth
#

Some weapons do experience pierce falloff but not all

dull heart
#

can't wait for ToE critting to be busted

grave geyser
#

anytime you think balance should be really simple you get shit like this

dull heart
#

actually ToE is going from no crits to all crits

severe coral
dull heart
#

yeah it doesn't

severe coral
#

Yeah lol

grave geyser
severe coral
#

Am I the only one who's like a complete psycho about the debuff system and loves the fuck out of it???

fierce hearth
#

Is pierce resistance going to apply to most high-pierce weapons or is it gonna be very selective

dull heart
#

but like

dull heart
#

it'll probably die

grave geyser
fierce hearth
#

I think it's nice flavor but it's ultimately just kind of weird in how it affects balance

severe coral
#

I wouldn't really say overtuned, just wrongly tuned

dull heart
#

no it's very overtuned

severe coral
#

I'd love for it to be exactly as viable as, say, a regular damage build

dull heart
#

to the point we need to make debuff weapons mostly ignore the system for them to be viable

lyric trellis
severe coral
#

Rn it's definitely better in certain situations but I don't want it to just die and be forgotten forever and debuffs are never an option again

grave geyser
fierce hearth
#

It's supposed to be based on logic but progression and weapon tiers are not designed at all with boss order at all so it ends up making balance really random with debuffs

lyric trellis
#

Lmao

dull heart
#

If anything it means they can become better

severe coral
#

It's kind of like 1.4.5 summoner imo

lyric trellis
#

Debuff weakness and resistances really falls apart when you look at how many things are actually weak to stuff that isn’t sickness or fire

severe coral
#

There's like a very loud minority of features introduced in the debuff system that make all of it insane

grave geyser
#

the biggest losers of weak/res dying are items like magma stone that massively benefit from its continued existance

severe coral
#

Like the fact that almost all amplifications are multiples of 25%

fierce hearth
#

Especially with instances like Plantera unlocking a bunch of plant/poison themed stuff, but the bosses immediately after her are all poison resistant, so the weapons need to have special balance considerations because of the debuff system

pulsar cobalt

#

?

#

Where would you say it lies?

dull heart
#

It's specifically the fact that the system is entirely matchup specific

severe coral
#

ah

dull heart
#

Which is why I said weaknesses and resistances are likely to die

severe coral
#

So the 50%/200% system of NPC-specific resistances/weaknesses?

dull heart
#

The system as a whole won't

severe coral
#

Ahh

grave geyser
#

chaos stone holding vodka hostage and preventing any of the other typeless debuffs from being allowed a real synergy

severe coral
#

Yeah no I'm just Post-Plantera and slightly dreading Golem and Deus knowing they're resistant to this whole setup I just made

dull heart
#

Go my glaive shred

fierce hearth
#

Yeah that specific aspect is what makes balance weird and probably needs to go because to make it unintrusive to balance would require it to be lessened to a point where including it at all comes into question

dull heart
#

Blazing Star shred is 240 dps just saying

lyric trellis
#

Instead of removing the resistance and weaknesses, it’s time to readd 5x effectiveness for weaknesses

severe coral
#

Yeah but I'm doing ranged and a bit of a purist

dull heart
#

wait or is it 120 and 240 regen

#

I don't remember anymore

Daybreak with slime gun on moon lord was 8000 dps from debuffs

Was that a Fabsol thing

if we kill debuff weakness/resistance I probably will

best not to question it

You should make Celled

Electric

Because I like Electric

And the cells look like little lightning balls

And Electric is starved rn

I remember when I played it was before I really understood the mod and just found the bazooka baffling

Of course I still used it

urban cloak

everything that's not fire is starved im ngl

But it was so strange to me

i mean yeah thats probably what happened

Like wtf other types of electric or cold or water themed debuffs

"Frostbite 2"

Doesn't exactly y'know

It's not as cool

Is yharon gonna be the last boss added to calamity or will there be more stuff inbetween him?

urban cloak

dot is the easiest debuff to make
fabsol gets the idea to make an elemental system that buffs certain types of dot debuffs cause thats all there is
we are here

yes Yharon will be the last boss ever

lovely evolution

is yharim the human?

yharon is the dragon and is in the mod

yharim is The Guy

ohhhhh

Since I started modding I realized all the devs have to do is take a currently fire debuff and just resprite and reword it and tadaa it's not fire

Like there's absolutely no real connection between DoG and fire

urban cloak

and yes he's the only boss planned rn we don't plan on any other new ones

grave geyser
#

one day

severe coral
#

DoG could totally use cold debuffs since he's from an alternate dimension

#

And it might be really cold there

#

Or he might carry foreign contagions and GSI could be a sickness

these worms are pissing me off

Very likely to remain a big purple worm tho? Thats like what dog is?

But like

It doesn't have to be 😭

lyric trellis
severe coral

It can be so much more

rotund venture

Anyway I was talking about the fight itself

urban cloak

he'd remain a segmented enemy mechanically but it'd be nice to see him redesigned to look more alien

rotund venture
#

Fights really good now

severe coral
urban cloak

the terraria worm with mandibles design gets boring after a while and dog has a lot of potential to be something different

severe coral

potential 💔

nothing is set in stone yet tho obviously so Plans For The Future

severe coral

The new laser walls attack is fucking fantastic so I really hope that stays

250 (10 Sage Spirits) * (175% (Corrosive Spine + Scions Curio) + 100% (Weakness) + 50% (Evergreen Gin) + 25% (Corrosive Spine)) * 125% (Reduced Amplification Effectiveness)

dull heart
severe coral
#

This is correct I think?

dull heart
#

Also why is there a +100% for weakness in there

severe coral
#

There what about that

severe coral
#

Right?

dull heart
#

that's not an additive boost

#

The *125% is the weakness boost

#

Or *1.25

rotund venture
#

Add the pbg item

severe coral
#

I'm Pre-Golem

rotund venture
#

Another 50% sickness buff

severe coral
#

I'll do that later

rotund venture
#

Ah nvm then

severe coral
#

ey

dull heart
#

250 * (1 + 1.75 + 0.5 + 0.25) * 1.25

#

If the enemy is sickness weak

#

If they're resist instead do

#

250 * (1 + 1.75 + 0.5 + 0.25) * 0.875

severe coral
#

Waiiit

dull heart
#

Sage Poison only gets 25% of the effect of both weakness and resistance

severe coral
#

So Sage Poison gets full benefits from item effects?

dull heart
#

yes

severe coral
#

Since that's separate from the weakness and resistance system OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

dull heart
#

it's just weakness and resistance

severe coral
#

Ok

#

Ok wow way different calculations

rotund venture
#

I love the whole elemental system

dull heart
#

250 * 3.5 = 875 dot

#

And then 875 *1.25 or 0.875

severe coral
#

Excellent

rotund venture
#

Too bad fire has a gorillion things and everything else doesnt

severe coral
#

Sickness is (as you can see) a very good contender

#

And sickness has its unique gimmick of usually reducing contact damage

dull heart
#

1093.75 DPS on weak enemies

765.6 DPS on non weak enemies

severe coral
#

yummers

rotund venture
#

Those are absurd numbers for pre golem

severe coral
#

I mean not too much

rotund venture
#

On a friggin debuff

severe coral
#

Since the item is kind of ass without it

dull heart
#

the sages do damage besides it so

#

It is a lot

#

But it also is taking every accessory slot you got lol

severe coral
#

Yeah if I was using another summon with a damage build it'd probably be about on par

rotund venture
#

Isnt it just curio and spine?

dull heart
#

Realistically most people won't use scion

severe coral
#

It's just more fun

severe coral
dull heart
#

So you need the summoner accessories still

rotund venture
#

Oh right summoner

severe coral
#

Oh uhh and the uhh

#

Gin

dull heart
#

You should see Virid Vanguard on yharon it's so funny

severe coral
#

I think it's funny that the alcohols are where most of the debuff effects landed

dull heart
#

You get I think 15 slots

#

50 DPS each

severe coral
#

Oh dw I'm totally going to

#

AND

dull heart
#

And then amalgam

severe coral
#

The Amalgam™

#

YES

#

Lemme write it out

dull heart
#

Amalgam + gin = 3.5x dmg from additives

rotund venture
#

Amalgam is avlctually busted ngl

severe coral
#

Amalgam my beloved

dull heart
#

3281.25 dps from sage poison alone

#

On yharon

rotund venture
#

I was melting exos with it

dull heart
#

It was even more before amalgam nerf

severe coral
#

Oh yeah 300%

rotund venture
#

Btw when electric debuff booster item?

dull heart
severe coral
#

Ignition Tank headass

severe coral
#

Which hint hint wink wink

#

Early-HM electric flamethrower would be sexy

rotund venture
#

I know yharims gift is gonna apply auric rebuke

#

But das not the same as a boosting item

severe coral
#

You can deal like almost 30kdps to Ares with debuffs

rotund venture
#

Seems agreeable

severe coral
#

Idk if you saw my rant in the patreon chat but I was mathing hard

#

I think I don't even care how effective debuffs are I just love all the numbers

rotund venture
#

I did backread but I mostly skimmed evrything

severe coral
#

It's like RoR2's proc system

#

There's just

#

So many numbers I can look at and experiment with

rotund venture
#

I wouldnt call them ineffective really

severe coral
#

That's the best part

rotund venture
#

Needs minmaxing

#

But v strong

severe coral
#

Not even that much and it's super nice

rotund venture
#

On my most recent playthrough I had amalgam+devils devastation shred ares

severe coral
#

Dude WHAT is with the DD item line I used it and thought it was ass

#

Ig I just... swung it wrong or some shit cuz I hated the reworks, all of em

rotund venture
#

You need to use the right click properly

severe coral
#

No I did

rotund venture
#

It works ridiculously well against enemies with multiple segments

#

Since you can stick several of them and get 3-6 swings

#

Stupid high damage

#

Great for crowds as well

severe coral
#

750 (15 Vanguard Blades) * (100% (Default) + 200% (The Amalgam) + 175% (Scions Curio + Corrosive Spine) + 50% (Evergreen Gin) + 50% (Toxic Heart) + 25% (Corrosive Spine)) * 1.25 (Reduced Weakness) = 5625DoT

#

Yummers

#

WAIT

#

DUDE

#

That's like

#

100% stackable with Auric Rebuke I'm actually sobbing into my pillow tonight

rotund venture
#

+all the debuffs amalgam already applies

#

On its own

severe coral
#

Yeah no lemme forward this

#

With a mildly developed debuff build (The Oracle/Kingsbane/Void Vortex, The Amalgam, Hellfire Treads, Diamond of the Deep, Tequila, and Fireball) deal...
5152.5DPS per entity (If you're lucky, you can inflict an extra 720 if you can hit something with the Diamond of the Deep's Void Spirit)

#

So take off Fireball and Gin since they conflict...

rotund venture
#

Thats before weaknesses too right?

severe coral
#

I don't remember hold on I'm doing crystal math rn

#

The Oracle, Virid Vanguard, The Amalgam, Hellfire Treads, Scions Curio, Toxic Heart, Corrosive Spine...

grave geyser
#

what the fuck

#

what are you activating scions with

severe coral
#

Shit nvm u- WAIT

#

KINGSBANE

barren nacelle
#

Is there a full version of this image, I’m working on something dependent on it

severe coral
#

IT'S RANGED AND INFLICTS REBUKE

grave geyser
#

it doesnt have 100% rebuke uptime but it would work theoretically

severe coral
#

4 seconds, long enough to be op asf

grave geyser
#

can also replace one virid with viper engine with dryads tear/hyperius

severe coral
#

I was 100% thinking of that

#

Ok ok ok ok ok

rotund venture
#

What if you consistently let go just as it starts shooting? So youre only doing the auric bullets?

severe coral
#

Since you've specced so hard into debuffs with those accessories you'll probably not do well anyways

#

This is just for Fun™

#

What's hyperius do?

#

Just hit more targets?

rotund venture
grave geyser
#

but hyperius's intended usecase is damage amplification

barren nacelle
#

EEUGH

severe coral
#

You're using the kingsbane

#

So you'll already apply the bullet's debuff

#

So one CVE for GSI

#

You think I should add Diamond of The Deep?

#

I think that's a bit excessive

frail owl
#

meow

severe coral
#

I'm trying to stay somewhat reasonable

rotund venture
#

Does amalgam not apply gsi?

severe coral
rotund venture
#

What debuffs is it?

severe coral
#

Amalgam is Daybreak

#

You know what

#

I'm gonna remove GSI since a CVE will only target 1 enemy the whole time

#

And no Diamond of the Deep

grave geyser
rotund venture
#

Thats 2nd strongets of each type right?

grave geyser
#

2nd strongest other than heat yeah

rotund venture
#

Holy flames, gsi, vuln hex?

grave geyser
#

second strongest heat would be vuln hex yeah lmao

rotund venture
#

Not second

grave geyser
#

I can only think of one stronger

rotund venture
#

Whats stronger than vuln hex thats heat specifically?

grave geyser
#

banishing fire

severe coral
#

150 Cold, 150 Water, 3746.875 Sickness, 4200 Electric, 350 Heat = 8596.875 (Take this with a rather sizeable grain of salt)

#

You can, with a reasonable debuff build, deal ~42984.375DPS to Ares

rotund venture
#

Sure that seems fair

#

Thats debuffs alone, how much are you doing with summons+weapons?

severe coral
#

Uh

#

Kingsbane with God Slayer Slugs and 15 Virid Vanguards

#

Oh that number also doesn't account for how much Irradiated would deal

#

So like you can just round up to 43k

#

🤷‍♂️_ _

#

Then round to 0 because you'll probably have only Wings and Asgardian Aegis as other accessories and you'll get assfucked

rotund venture
#

Wings+dash+dodge from amalgam what more do you need?

#

Defense? CalWheeze

severe coral
#

Kingsbane deals like 5-10k??????

#

267 at 20RPS

#

Wait no

#

Idfk man

#

Let's just call it 20kdps with Kingsbane and Virid's actual damage

rotund venture
#

Seems like a lowball but sure

#

65k dps on ares would be insane so

severe coral
#

60kdps on Ares alone, in Death Mode that's still sub minute

rotund venture
#

All of that just to be worse than pre-nerf star beam rye

severe coral
#

💀_ _

#

You wanna talk pre-nerf?

#

30second all mechs dead with 5x debuff vulnerability damage

#

200kdps

#

One

#

MILLION

#

debuffs

rotund venture
#

Wait what if you did scal first and had aflame on kingsbane?

severe coral
#

hmm

#

oooh

#

Resistant to fire, weak to sickness and cold

grave geyser
severe coral

Means you can spec into cold way more

severe coral
grave geyser

anyway pre nerf star beam rye could do it in 17 :)

fuuuck

grave geyser
severe coral
#

Idek like

#

An amount that makes me want to use words I can't on a public server

#

That's 1332*3.5 and you can stack that with the numbers I got with 0 consequences

#

Then per arm and on the body

#

23310dps

#

At this point idgaf

#

23k+43k+20k

rotund venture
#

66k once we add vuln hex FallWithinMyCalculations

severe coral
#

Like 80k maybe

rotund venture
#

Its fated

severe coral
#

No that's with vuln

#

23k from vuln alone

rotund venture
#

?? Thats what I said?

severe coral
#

oh

#

Ok so like

#

At least 5dps with a debuff build pogfish

rotund venture
#

Why tf is absorber affliction 200 dps

severe coral

And then my friend can use Feral Bobber and Devourer of Cods
