[vivid hemlock]

its more barren than the desert

[blazing field]

no genuinely

the ocean IS more barren than the desert

[drifting rune]

did the game get easier?
i havent played in a year or so and i only played on reavengance and back then it felt like a bit of a challenge(i suck at terraria)
but now it feels WAYYYY easier

[blazing field]

with all the changes the desert got its objectively more lively

[lyric trellis]

Reminds me that apparently there was some old pre-22 cal plan to add a trench to the normal ocean? Which sounds funny when the Abyss already exists

[blazing field]

generally yeah

mod isnt trying to focus on difficulty

[earnest jewel]

It seems Fabsol yearned for a deep pit to be flung into.

[blazing field]

I think the abyss originally was going to just be in the normal ocean

but then uhh sulphur sea was manifested somehow

[drifting rune]

yeah it was either that or rangers really good cuz this is my first time playing calamity on it lol

[urban cloak]

sounds wack

i wouldn't mind cal doing something to the regular ocean tho

[lyric trellis]

Damage numbers were lowered access the board, arguably too much but that’s being dealt with

[urban cloak]

but like another trench would be boring

[blazing field]

anahita caverns

[urban cloak]

abyss exists for that

[blazing field]

where you fight hit boss anahita

tbh a series of tunnels that lead to a big open cavern where you fight analevi in actually sounds kind of awesome

[earnest jewel]

Coral reef?

[high scaffold]

I kinda wanna do anahita as first boss

[earnest jewel]

You can.

[terse dew]

I remember

😁

I was there when the ancient texts were written

3000 years ago

[lyric trellis]

Merkalto would’ve saved the oceans

[vivid hemlock]

confirmation that merkalto was there when the sphinx was built

[terse dew]

I would've made sulphurous sea piss yellow again

[dusk bronze]

google getfixedboi

[terse dew]

Base game

🙄

[hushed mountain]

lord and savior merkalto

why did the sound for switching difficulty modes get changed

[deft lily]

hi

[blazing field]

merkalto dosen't know

[hushed mountain]

dangit.

[deft lily]

because the previous ones sucked

[hushed mountain]

it woulda been funny.

[deft lily]

boom

[blazing field]

merkalto is merkalto

isnt that right merkalto

[lyric trellis]

I forgot how ugly the sea used to be, I mean the enemies and blocks are still brown and messy but the piss really was bad

[dusk bronze]

[hushed mountain]

but merkalto is our lord and savior #evil

he would know everything... (totally)

[blazing field]

but the piss really was bad

great sentence

[deft lily]

me when enabling revengeance: 🎸
me when enabling death: 👿

[earnest jewel]

You mean our tyrant and murderer? #evil

[dusk bronze]

wasn't the death activation sound the exact same as demonshade enrage

[earnest jewel]

Put some respect on our overlord.

[deft lily]

i think

idk

[hushed mountain]

yes our lord and savior!

merkalto would never be so cruel..

[deft lily]

thesound for enabling death mode tho is sick

makes me feel evil and malicious

[hushed mountain]

he ensures that my eidolist tablet drops arent garbage (ill now get them every 10 kills instead of 20)

[blazing field]

merkalto healed my grandma 😊

[hushed mountain]

merkalto hides my speedrun timer

:(

[earnest jewel]

Merkalto is my landlord.

[lyric trellis]

It’s true

[vivid hemlock]

i thought she died

did he revive her

wtf

impossible

[blazing field]

yep thats just how good merkalto is

[hushed mountain]

yeah merkalto made permafrost good for reviving people irl

[vivid hemlock]

merkalto please rework all bosses and deliver punishment to the sinners

[blazing field]

merkalto is just a funny man

a funny little guy

[deft lily]

merkalto is evil and wants to kill everyone

[tropic jolt]

merkalto and good in the same sentence

nice try fed

[deft lily]

u cant fool me....

[wide raven]

Honestly I want to see more Plague versions of jungle enemies

[dense sundial]

yes, and the rev one was cultist summoning phantasmal dragon

[blazing field]

personally i want to see the plague be good more

[vivid hemlock]

^^^^^^

[blazing field]

just adding more plaguefied jungle enemies won't really make it more interesting or fix any of the issuess wtih it, if anything id argue itd make them worse

[earnest jewel]

Plague should infect enemies directly.

[lyric trellis]

Plague that infects hive blocks when

[earnest jewel]

Plague Hive would be a cool structure actually.

[vivid hemlock]

seeing plague enemies kill and infect other animals would actually b cool

yk

u see them doing what theyre said to do

[wide raven]

Yeah honestly making the plague kinda like a mini corruption would be cool

[vivid hemlock]

biome spread...

[wide raven]

Not a full blow corruption

[blazing field]

the plague right now is extremely ouf o place (a bunch of plague enemies just spawning in the jungle with no sort of plague worldgen or anything else to reflect the plague's consequences on the enviroment)
all of the enemies are largely uninteresting with no complex or fun behaviors
and despite having so many diff enemies all of them ust drop the same shit which coupled with their lack of interesting behavior makes their existence largely redudant

like you could make it so its literally just plague chargers and itd essentially be the same

[vivid hemlock]

plague also kinda like bloats jungle content even more especially when most of the items are not great, so many weapons for one area...

[blazing field]

yeah plague is the

textbook definition rn of quantity over quality

in every aspect

a bunch of shitty enemies, way too many items

[earnest jewel]

You get access to Jungle stuff which unlocks Jungle stuff which unlocks Jungle stuff.

[wide raven]

Yeah the jungle basically has everything

[fierce hearth]

There isn't even a particularly good lore reason for plague showing up. Like... you beat the jungle's protector idol deity and that makes Draedon's bioweapon show up? Why? There's nothing indicating that Golem was keeping Draedon's weapons suppressed.

[earnest jewel]

I think it'd make way more sense if it was post-Plantera, or earlier.

[lyric trellis]

Should definitely spawn from Plantera probably that’d at least make a bit more sense

And or you unleash it yourself but that’s more effort

[fierce hearth]

God I'm thinking about boss order in HM again and getting sick

[vivid hemlock]

guh

vanilla alr makes hm progression funny and calamity kinda makes it even worse 😭

[dusk bronze]

does anyone have that old drataliornus art by i think mihaii?

[fierce hearth]

The pacing of HM is so momumentally fucked because bosses were added with only 1 mechanical boss actually being relevant since you'd unlock mats to trivialize the subsequent 2

But then the early-hm rework got added as did Queen Slime

[earnest jewel]

The what?

[fierce hearth]

So now we went from effectively 4 pre-plant bosses to 8

And it's sooooo crowded

[dusk bronze]

it was shaped like an s and had a wing

[wide raven]

Also the plague mini boss is so annoying. Like oh your trying to mine in the jungle

Nah random queen bee

[vivid hemlock]

if you were to fight every single boss, itd be:
qs (depending on if you consider her a seperate tier), twins/destroyer/prime/cryo/aqua/brim, clone/plant (these might be considered a different tier but like wtv), analevi/aureus, golem, pbg/rav/duke/empress, cultist/deus, ml

[dusk bronze]

why are you mining in the jungle post golem

[fierce hearth]

Ppl have brought up that Aureus feels like it should be pre-plant mechanically and I agree, but then you have to reckon with how many bosses are already pre-plant

[lyric trellis]

Jungle Scoria

[wide raven]

Honestly I dont remember what I was doing.

[urban cloak]

flashback to pre-brainstorm pbg drop pool

[vivid hemlock]

11 weapons...

[hollow harness]

biggest drop pool before and now its plantera I think?

or queen bee

[vivid hemlock]

pbg was like the most egregious example of the plague being just 1 million weapons

[hollow harness]

that's it? all the plague content?

[lyric trellis]

I’ve thought about Aureus being pre-mech or mech tier and moving Brimmy to post-plant but that’s kinda like eh

[hollow harness]

bloat the boss with all the weapons ever and with an extra material for even more items

[wide raven]

Honestly Aureus needs a rework

You can literally farm him for his drops like really early in hardmode

[urban cloak]

its kind of staggering just how much content the plague has when you take a step back and actually analyze it

[fierce hearth]

Brimmy is nothing but I do feel like an elemental should be stronger than a failed attempt to artificially replicate a mage

[earnest jewel]

You know what, just make PBG post-Moon Lord. Make the Jungle important every stage of the game. Make the people suffer.

[urban cloak]

barely any in-world presence and it fades into obscurity right after you beat its signature boss which you're expected to fight right after golem

[vivid hemlock]

all bosses need reworks i dont care what people say about provi or scal theyre gonna look dated when the other bosses get reworked even if they get new visual upgrades 🙂‍↕️

[urban cloak]

yet it has a ton of items for some unknown reason

[hollow harness]

and then a random item upgrade in post-ML for some reason

[fierce hearth]

If she gets better lore maybe brimmy being post-plant would be nice. Also if you did that maybe she could gatekeep scoria instead of golem, which would make more sense imo

[urban cloak]

you could argue the enemy count is crazy too cause the calamity regular enemy economy sucks balls

[earnest jewel]

To be fair, that Elemental got its teeth pushed into its stomach like 15 years ago.

[urban cloak]

something like the plague having like 5-6 unique enemies is wild

[hollow harness]

are they really that unique though

[wide raven]

Honestly wulfrum needs some new stuff

[dusk bronze]

nah

[blazing field]

eh i think wulfrum is fine

if anything i just think the enemies themselve,s

[amber egret]

wulfrums pretty good

[blazing field]

could be reworked

[earnest jewel]

Wulfrum biome.

[blazing field]

the actual items and blocks and such are pretty good

[hollow harness]

enemies could be better yea

[vivid hemlock]

yeah its just the wulfrum enemies theyre kinda

[amber egret]

i would personally like hardmode wulfrum but the issue is What The Fuck Do You Make It Do

[urban cloak]

well no im just more referring to the count

[wide raven]

Fables kinds did that

[earnest jewel]

Fables did what!?

[hollow harness]

Wulfrum structure*

[blazing field]

fables has a wulfrum structure but its not really a biome

[urban cloak]

they're all basically just reskinned jungle enemies with the exception of viruling

[blazing field]

its just a bunker you go in to fight a bunch of wulfrums and get some loot

[urban cloak]

i still do not know what the fuck viruling is

[proud plover]

I think a plaguebringer goliath with transformer like phase transitions would be cool.
Animated by code

[wide raven]

Not a biome but a structure

[dusk bronze]

wulfrum scrapyard/bunker structure

[blazing field]

which instead is a reskinned eater of souls

[hollow harness]

yea and its like the intended way to get the cores as well

[fierce hearth]

Wulfrum enemies got love a few years ago and are better than most calamity mobs, so I think they ought to be pretty low priority when we still have Scorn Eaters

[urban cloak]

true yea

[wide raven]

Fair

[blazing field]

fables wulfrums <3

[hollow harness]

because well you actually need to interact with the structure prior to wulfrum nexus spawning rarely

[amber egret]

man fuck scorn eaters....

[urban cloak]

i need to rework the wulfrum enemies ive already talked about it in dev

[amber egret]

fables <3

[urban cloak]

they all kinda suck rn

[hollow harness]

fables wulfrum is so good it works so well and has so much cool stuff

[wide raven]

I find it funny that wulfrum were literally created to troll Yharim

[amber egret]

i saw the spirit + fables boss fight and its so fucking peak

[vivid hemlock]

fables rover supremacy

[hollow harness]

the enemies are genuinely amazing because they all collaborate into killing you

[blazing field]

itll be interesting seeing what basecal does with their designs

i remember i think triangle had somd ideas

[proud plover]

they do </3

[amber egret]

with Wulfum?

[blazing field]

yeah the sinergies they have are awesome

plus i really like how silly they are

[lyric trellis]

The Brimmy stuff is kinda eh there’s no much reasoning besides wanting less mech tier bloat and maybe she should be a bigger deal by being post-plant with her other elemental sister, Aureus at mech tier would make a lot more sense especially after 2.1 and needing to decrypt a schematic to craft his spawner and yeah that just makes sense

[blazing field]

big hand, magnet

[urban cloak]

wulfrum hovercraft and wulfrum drone when they get stuck in tiles and stop functioning entirely

[blazing field]

so whimsy

[hollow harness]

also they can kill eachother (granadier robot)

[wide raven]

Also they make a really good early pre hardmode summoner set

[urban cloak]

wulfrum rover just gets stuck on half tiles too its really fucking sad

[vivid hemlock]

wulfrum is an actual threat compared to the slimes that spawn constantly and they actually link up and shit its amazing

[dusk bronze]

i love the robot that just fucking throws other robots at you

[blazing field]

wulfrum hovercraft and drone when they have so little identity i barely remember what they do different

[lyric trellis]

One hovers the other drones

[blazing field]

the magnetizer

[wide raven]

Also wulfrum drops an item that later becomes one of the best defensive items in the game

[hollow harness]

despite the sprite difference its like the only thing is that one shoots big laser when it gets core enhanced

[urban cloak]

yea thats basically it

[blazing field]

sprite difference that also contributes to their lack of identity too

[hollow harness]

the other idk gets stuck in tiles

[blazing field]

the wulfrums in general have no identity at lal beyond that

theyre different shapes

rover is flat and wide

gyrator is a ball

hovercraft is flat nad flies

drone is, idk shape ad flies

their designs are just Different Shape

[lyric trellis]

idk shape 🔥

[hollow harness]

rover and gyrator are the only ones I remember well because uhh idk they're the ground ones

[urban cloak]

gyrator is genuinely the only good one rn cause it's ai doesn't break easily and that bar is 🥀

[hollow harness]

rover more because funny!! roverdrive reference and the accessory

[lyric trellis]

Skyfin bomber ai

[dull heart]

hi

[main estuary]

tbh hovercraft and drone are similar but the drone attacks more often

[dusk bronze]

wulfrum discussions

[lyric trellis]

John wulfrum

[fierce hearth]

The thing about the wulfrum rover is that I find its helplessness extremely amusing and befitting of an enemy from the very beginning of the game, but I feel like it should at least be able to handle a half-block

[dusk bronze]

yeah i love how the rover runs into walls like a roomba

[fierce hearth]

I don't want to lose some of the clumsiness of wulfrum enemies

It's charming

[main estuary]

when does rover get trojan squirrels ai

[fierce hearth]

But the fact that they break almost every single time you encounter one is Bad

[hollow harness]

dude I've seen them spawn on living trees and they all get stuck and never come back to fight

[barren nacelle]

They’re so bad in multiplayer dude

[rare tinsel]

theyre so funny

[urban cloak]

justice

[rare tinsel]

OUGH

everybody run we’re so fucked

[dusk bronze]

BEAT

aw

[rancid pagoda]

only half tiles? so if it's unhammered they still get stuck on it?

[urban cloak]

oh no they can travel up single blocks now too

[rancid pagoda]

oh so that was just inconsistency fix

[vivid hemlock]

the first of many

fryzahh you will save the enemy economy...

[pearl sentinel]

fryzahh you will add the feastiary to calamity

[urban cloak]

i guess???
for some reason they just never had the functionality to travel up single tiles and half tiles for all this time and no one seemed to bother questioning

[grim pecan]

making a pr to revert this

no justice

[vivid hemlock]

demonic

[dusk bronze]

flay sunny

[halcyon seal]

New PR replace all wulfrum enemies with wulfrum hovercrafts and let them move through walls again

[stone zephyr]

keep wulfrum rovers incapacitated!

[urban cloak]

Square up.

[stone zephyr]

just kidding. let them roam

Wulfrum Cnidrions

[dull heart]

youre welcome i approved it

[hasty tangle]

making a counter-pr to allow them to go up 1-block-tall cliffs

[lethal kraken]

Wulfrum Hogmongus new enemy (this message will be a candidate for the worst calamity discord message of 2026 award )

[lethal kraken]

Actually no it would be a boss and i now actually wanna make a sketch of it and write ideas, wanna do that in general for my ideas for calamity addons or tmods even if i dont ever sprite or code

I’ve gotten more and more ideas for the idea of a fables like mod where its calamity based on really old versions and planned content for old versions like the void biome or whatever but also some new stuff like exo mech versions of bosses that aren’t the mech bosses which would like also fit because the final boss would be Andromeda

[dusk bronze]

not even close

It's not astral

[vagrant wind]

is it 🪱

[amber egret]

despite tofu being a fan of astrum vermis, they are not defined solely by that

[dusty tinsel]

vermis

[vagrant wind]

"fan" is not an adequate description

[dull heart]

Yes

[dusty tinsel]

so you are a worm fan? name every worm

[dull heart]

okay I name them all Jean

[amber egret]

i had a

Discussion

with some people abt astrum vermis and i have devised to minimize problems to call them "space worm" instead of "space god"

[dusty tinsel]

who is vermis

[amber egret]

Astrum Deus

[dusty tinsel]

why is he vermis

[dull heart]

Sorry space god go brr

[amber egret]

they are not Auric enough

[vagrant wind]

worm related but not astral related 🤔

[amber egret]

its burrower

[dusty tinsel]

what does vermis even mean

[amber egret]

vermin, aka worm, rat, rodent

astrum (space) vermis (worm)

[dusty tinsel]

space vermin

[vagrant wind]

is it not just latin for worm

basically yaeh

thatd be useless because i dont see what needs fixing

as far as im aware its just an extra non-serious bit of content so that people can have fun with the dev weapons

[tawdry kettle]

Wait can someone explain something to me?

Version 2.1.0, does that include all 700+ changes that haven't been released yet?

And is that not released yet?

I thought those nearly 1000 changes were Brainstorm

[polar tide]

2.1 is brainstorm. it was released on february 6 and contained 3000+ changes

[polar tide]

i dont know what you mean by this

[tawdry kettle]

Did YuH just forget to update the changelog?

[polar tide]

yes

[barren nacelle]

No Sand Dollar rework

[polar tide]

you should not be looking at the changelogs channel for information on current versions of calamity

[tawdry kettle]

Then where? The changelog was always reliable.

And it was a great way to see individual changes.

[desert garnet]

Wiki

Search for calamity versions

[polar tide]

the changelogs are reliable. the changelogs channel isnt

https://calamitymod.wiki.gg/wiki/2.1.2

[desert garnet]

And there you can read all changes

[polar tide]

we also have a newsletter on the calamity website

[tawdry kettle]

Alright thank you. In any case, I think something should be done about the changelog channel. Maybe add a message at the end of it being like: "Hey, this is not being written in anymore, you can keep up on the update information here: link to wiki place"

[polar tide]

much better source of information on what we're doing currently

[polar tide]

i've been thinking that it should be archived since it's essentially defunct now

[tawdry kettle]

Exactly

[desert garnet]

You can make a ticket to modmail

[tawdry kettle]

I mean, I'm talking to a dev rn XD

[polar tide]

i'll bring it up internally i've just been forgetting to

[tawdry kettle]

Alright :) Thank you for the conversation

pepsimax iv for the sorrowful sow

im happy to see another person who thinks its an iv this picture is fascinating because i think the intent was probably that the pepsi max is being pumped out of the pig but i and a nonsignficant amount of other people see it as an iv drip

[fierce hearth]

It's definitely extractive as depicted but the idea of it being an IV is so much more funny to me that I will it into being

[wise bolt]

also,

To liken the plagued deity to that of a verminous maggot is no less than blasphemy of the highest degree.

You wish not to refer to it as a god, so be it, but you will do so with reverence, rather than dragging it through the muck with something so utterly tasteless and tactless.

Astrum Deus is fine a title as is, but if you insist on a differing name, you'd do well to refer to it as Astrum Tabidum, or Sidus Tabidum, after its sidereal form and the rot that befalls it.

Else, do not refer to it at all.

Do not let me catch you enacting such folly again.

Truth nuke

Sorry John CDMusic, the music's a banger but the event is fundamentally ass

[high scaffold]

Future content doc needs an update

[vivid hemlock]

about what

[lyric trellis]

The future

[vivid hemlock]

😨

[high scaffold]

The hogs

[lapis oak]

updated with your demise

[vivid hemlock]

i already wrote down about your final hours

[high scaffold]

The hogs are going wild

[vivid hemlock]

what hogs

[high scaffold]

Terrible

Or are they horrible

[solemn crest]

Can’t wait for the hogs to say “it’s hogging time” and they hog everywhere

[twin juniper]

You feel a horrible presence watching you…

[solemn crest]

I found a draedon hate image that feels like it was conceived in this discord

[polar tide]

this picture sucks ass

[solemn crest]

I think that person does not like exo mechs

[polar tide]

i am familiar with this person they have a weird hatred for draedon specifically that i do not understand

real classy

[solemn crest]

Eww politics

Ngl I read like 4 lines

[polar tide]

"eww politics" is what you took from that?

[tropic jolt]

I see these a lot in fables discord

[hasty tangle]

exos are pretty bad tbf

[tropic jolt]

bendraedon exoyahu

apparently some people really do not like infernum exo mechs

[hasty tangle]

its a shame really

[solemn crest]

I don’t really have a problem with it tbh

[hasty tangle]

inf exos are really cool

[solemn crest]

I think it’s fun enough

[hasty tangle]

but thats infernum for you

every single boss is absolutely hated by at least some people

and loved by others

[solemn crest]

This is true

I am a certified profaned guardians hater

[urban cloak]

wonder how many people are actually aware he was voiced by gianni matragrano once

its been nearly five years since reign of lords first released

[solemn crest]

There’s no way reign of lords is that old

[hushed mountain]

its been a minute

[urban cloak]

it came out like a month before the draedon update yea

by october 14th this year it'll officially be 5

[solemn crest]

Oh my god

-# trial of the insane is two years old???

[tropic jolt]

🥹

[hushed mountain]

[tropic jolt]

t1e is a year old already this cant be real

[solemn crest]

t1e?

[hasty tangle]

tier 1 encore

[hushed mountain]

the extra thingy

the encore mix yeah

[solemn crest]

I have not heard of it

Wait why tf am I not subscribed hold on

[hushed mountain]

fake fan??!!?

[solemn crest]

There we go

[tropic jolt]

this is funny

[solemn crest]

“0 times he’s washed his butt”

[urban cloak]

time flies ig

[tropic jolt]

save me!!!
lucille karma!!!

[halcyon seal]

THIS ISNT FUCKING FUNY. THAT IS LITERALYY MY DAD

[urban cloak]

the mod hasn't really gotten any huge major updates like the draedon update before brainstorm so its understandable why so much time has passed so quickly

[hollow harness]

YUP another Gao classic

[solemn crest]

Gao is known well?

I thought it was just some random guy hating Draedon

[halcyon seal]

Inf exos would be decent if Ares wasn’t there

[urban cloak]

the name sounds familiar

[hollow harness]

Gao is known they're in various servers

[urban cloak]

ive definitely seen them before but i cant remember much

[tropic jolt]

he was a serial killer that bragged about killing people

[grave geyser]

storming the brains

does bh really not count

[solemn crest]

[halcyon seal]

How do I just Know that ares calls azafurians “THOSE people”

[white aurora]

they draw calamity characters as project moon characters i think, they've posted their stuff here im pretty sure

[urban cloak]

i do not like bountiful harvest it kinda fucked up parts of the mod that were pretty enjoyable for me

[lyric trellis]

From the Ashes 🙂‍↕️

[urban cloak]

that and the pr distster that is the pumpkin

[hollow harness]

They're a bit active everywhere really

[grave geyser]

I dont like it either but I dont think that makes it not a big update

[urban cloak]

the weapon reworks were nice thats about the only praise i can give it

[hasty tangle]

was bh really that bad, if you ignore the boss reworks

[lyric trellis]

Xyk scal changes my savior

[hollow harness]

bountiful harvest more like bountiful industry plant 🙂‍↕️

[grave geyser]

no but but the boss changes were also like half the update

[pseudo vector]

https://giphy.com/gifs/wJD3qiNjSeHS0dP28T

[solemn crest]

BH happened like shortly after I got into cal, what exactly did people hate about it?

[tropic jolt]

😭

[urban cloak]

i distinctly remember getting genuinely hyped when fab was posting changelogs and talking about unique changes to bosses in master mode and allat

[solemn crest]

Like I did one cal playthrough before it came out I think

[hasty tangle]

main thing was the boss reworks

[tropic jolt]

nobody cared about that stupid pumpkin!!!

[urban cloak]

was quickly corrected

[hasty tangle]

bosses were made miserable in master rev/death

HM and PBG were also ruined

[pseudo vector]

i did not intend on the gap between t1e and t2e being this big but its honestly entirely on me

[lyric trellis]

Majority of boss changes, many contact damage changes, and the whole master-rev shit ass difficulty system

[tropic jolt]

t2e will be so peak it will be worth it

[hollow harness]

not expanding the BH page boss changes take up at least 1/3 of the documented changes

[lyric trellis]

Master system so bad I had to write up a whole doc with over a dozen points to explain “hey this sucks” and it somehow worked

[urban cloak]

could be me looking at it more from a developer perspective now idk

[hollow harness]

1/3 is actual boss changes, another 1/3 is just rebalances and the rest is whateverr the update added

[urban cloak]

there were parts of it that were good and i liked, but the parts that i dont like feel louder

[solemn crest]

So here’s another question I’ve got, why do people hate the pumpkin?

[white aurora]

[tropic jolt]

WHO is this bum

[urban cloak]

was the entire trailer and branding for the update and then it fell off after a week

[tropic jolt]

why do they exist who is that

[hollow harness]

Industry plant

[urban cloak]

idek if anyone uses harvest staff nowadays

[hasty tangle]

(literally)

[pseudo vector]

pumpkin was sorta shoehorned in as the mascot for the update

[tropic jolt]

its like some sort of hazardous harvest

[lyric trellis]

Harvest staff is limited by everything else just being broken (and you can only have 1 so it’s cooked iirc)

[hollow harness]

harvest staff is kinda good last time I checked but it falls off after you get an OOA sentry (ballista/aura)

the only reedeming quality is the sfx they have which is silly

[lyric trellis]

Lend me a 1 damage buff cal devs, this is RBP and Polyp Launcher we’re up against

[solemn crest]

Why not tie it to pumpkin moon? Seems fitting

[hollow harness]

because pumpkin moon is Serious Stuff

[mortal tide]

new leaked feature: sacrifice the pumpkin creature in hardmode to spawn the pumpkin moon

[hollow harness]

or halloween season related stuff

[dull heart]

RBP needs to stop doing what it does

[solemn crest]

RBP cannot be found anymore. Needs auric bars to be crafted. Everything else remains unchanged

[vivid hemlock]

this is the dog that ate up all of the other good changes in bh as a fat bird told me

[dull heart]

Finally balanced

[solemn crest]

(You cannot shimmer it to get the auric back)

Daniel
The cooler Daniel

[grave geyser]

shroomble is also an industry plant dont let them fool you

[tropic jolt]

industry plant 2

we need industry hogs

[solemn crest]

Shroomble is awesome look at that little guy

[hollow harness]

yea these are all industry plants

like literally and figuratively

[solemn crest]

I could never hate shroomble

They make a funny noise

[vivid hemlock]

you need actual enemies in your life to be fulfilled

[urban cloak]

if you're referring to the jump sound then i hope you know its the same one harvest staff uses

[grave geyser]

should've kept shroomble dying every frame

[solemn crest]

I have never used harvest staff ngl. I don’t play summoner

[mortal tide]

ong i had no clue this guy was a summon

[grave geyser]

he used to not!

[urban cloak]

🥀

yeah its a sentry, was previously a mage weapon before it got reworked

[hollow harness]

the weapon used to be a mage weapon that still went unnoticeable tbh

[mortal tide]

WHAT

[hollow harness]

like I don't even remember this weapon being decent at all it was like unnoticeable really

[solemn crest]

Wait so BH’s main selling point was a pre-boss weapon rework?

[mortal tide]

why in the world was it a mage weapon, it's literally a creature what

[hollow harness]

Pretty much

[urban cloak]

well it wasn't the little pumpkin creature before

that came with the rework

[solemn crest]

Summons used to be magic damage back in like early terraria too

[urban cloak]

pre-rework it was just a staff that shot small pumpkin projectiles

[solemn crest]

mid-terraria?

After early

[mortal tide]

me thinking it was a brand new item but then i got reminded it's from the calamity mod

[urban cloak]

everything is 100000 years old

[mortal tide]

it's true i was there

[solemn crest]

[hollow harness]

yea no it was just a random projectile staff which just exploded on hit

[lyric trellis]

Harvest staff was kinda cracked when it was a mage weapon which is funny

[vivid hemlock]

calamity is characterized by senile weapons

[solemn crest]

Now I wonder what cal weapon has gone the longest without a rework

What’s the least-recently updated weapon…

[lyric trellis]

Slag Magnum hasn’t gotten a real change since mid 2017

[mortal tide]

rip my goat terra edge 🥀

[lyric trellis]

Only resprites and a velocity buff lol

[pulsar cobalt]

no its an industry fungi smh

[solemn crest]

Exactly, he’s a fun guy

[hasty tangle]

there's fungi in pvz, so they can count as honorary plants

[vocal kelp]

They never renamed it to slagnum

#tragic

[mortal tide]

slopnum

#whatdatmean

[solemn crest]

The real slop is the friends we made along the way

[mortal tide]

it's true

[twin juniper]

Guess who else eat slops

[solemn crest]

No…

[dull heart]

Slag Magnum is a name that makes me sad

Why is it not just the Slagnum

[solemn crest]

Is there an official release date for Hog Wild or is the newsletter more of a “here’s what’s going on rn” kinda thing?

Or did I just miss it?

[mystic eagle]

Hog Wilds or Outer Hogs?

[solemn crest]

?

I’m behind

[distant raft]

i was more thinking Hog Hunter Wilds

[solemn crest]

Hogframe when?

[solemn crest]

I mean… what’s stopping you?

[dull heart]

Too much else to do

Hog Rider when

[solar hare]

[urban cloak]

hm

a hog rider attack on horrible hog WOULD be kinda funny...

[wise bolt]

caldevi mutrim etc etc.. artist

[urban cloak]

ah

i think ive seen like one mutrim piece from them

caldevi is a ship ive never seen before tho

[wise bolt]

not fond of caldevi tbh,

[azure oak]

real

[solemn crest]

I have no idea what those words mean

[wise bolt]

mutant x yharim & calamitas x deviantt

[solemn crest]

Interesting

[grave rock]

Explode

[wise bolt]

idk. i would prefer my aroace characters 2 stay aroace unless the artist is specifically trying to explore that spectrum aspect of aromanticism through connections with others

but that is just my preference

[vivid hemlock]

truthful

[rotund venture]

I had no idea people are shipping Cal

thought it was well known that she's aroace

[solemn crest]

People ship anything

[wise bolt]

it is nice when the ships have substance and background. sure, xyz lesbian or gay or straight couple is cute or something but i cannot find it in me to feel anything in particular for them when they're just conveyed like slice of life characters

nice, but not the most interesting

[rotund venture]

I'm just confused as to how ppl can ship a character that's aroace

[vivid hemlock]

not really idt

[grave rock]

They should be stabbinh eachother

[rotund venture]

am I missing something? am I not woke enough to understand?

[wise bolt]

no i just dont think they care

unfortunately

[grave rock]

Fwiw i dont remember seeibg any art of them being romantically íntimate
My good faith take would b that its a queerplatonic relationship but that just might be cope

[solemn crest]

Unfortunately, the internet

[wise bolt]

if memory serves gao has mentioned their cala is lesbian but idk if we're still talking about them

[grave rock]

Im mainly talking about tje one caldevi artist

Yeag
Is it gao

[wise bolt]

that is gao yea

[grave rock]

Idk their name sry

[dull heart]

no

[grave rock]

Idek if theres another caldevi artist

Can we get hog yuri

[rotund venture]

henlo doze

[solemn crest]

[wise bolt]

why is it always yuri

[grave rock]

Women are awesome

[halcyon forge]

is the slime superboss still ment to be in my infurnem world i cant find him on the wiki?

[wise bolt]

i may just be less inclined towards yuri in general tbh but also every time something like this comes up its always yuri

[grave rock]

And

[rotund venture]

#calamity-addon-talk

[halcyon forge]

oh poop wrong channel again mb

[wise bolt]

lack of variety makes the subject dull,

[urban cloak]

pop culture just kind of swayed more towards it ig

[dull heart]

tbh think it's because the average straight cis man is more interested in seeing two women kiss than two men kiss

[wise bolt]

[mellow spade]

this world needs more yaoi

[grave rock]

Lesbians are never dull

[urban cloak]

be the change you want to see in the world

[grave rock]

But sigh

Fine

Hog hetslop

[wise bolt]

nothing against yuri but it does feel like it is getting shoved in my face a lot

and there is, usually never substance to it

[twin juniper]

It’s kinda random at a time

[wise bolt]

its just girls kissing ,

[rotund venture]

be less online internet is cigarette for brain

[dull heart]

yuri fans vs yaoi enjoyers

[grave rock]

Stop shoving these LESBIANS in my face!!!

[mellow spade]

a true yaoi fan never speaks ill of yuri
a true yuri fan never speaks ill of yaoi

[wise bolt]

maybe i'm strange for wanting something with more thought put into it

[solemn crest]

Yuri, yaoi, whatever, I just like my gf

[wise bolt]

both can be good. but without anything to grasp onto outside of same sex relationship it is just completely uninteresting to me

[mellow spade]

i kinda get that

[twin juniper]

I liked the old lesbian couple in caroline

[dull heart]

fair

[grave rock]

Ship art has existed forever and tbh this Is just a weird reaction to have to someone bringing up yuri

[wise bolt]

it has existed forever and i draw do draw it on the occasion

[grave rock]

I literally just said hog yuri lol and u went "why is it always yuri" like ??? cuz im a lesbian and i like making things into lesbians for fun???

[wise bolt]

i just it find most shipping content dull

[grave geyser]

its not that weird to have opinions on things and to want to share said opinions when similar topics are brought up

[dull heart]

yuri is peak because it's in Cosmic Princess Kaguya that's all I have to say

[mellow spade]

i just like seeing any depictions of same-sex relationships
even if it's two girls and not two guys it's like "yay! gay people!"

[dull heart]

if it's in Cosmic Princess Kaguya it's gotta be peak that's the rules

[wise bolt]

i ask because i notice it's a frequent occurrence in a lot of places. am i doing something that's upsetting you ?

[tropic jolt]

draeplush is approaching ...

[grave geyser]

chat what would you say are the best/worst designed accessories that cal adds

designed as in function not visuals

[tropic jolt]

his time is coming

[dull heart]

yharims gift for both

[grave geyser]

ehhh

I dont think it falls under either tbh

[dull heart]

shh

[grave geyser]

I think you can do worse than a boring stat stick

[grave rock]

No, its fine just have an averse reaction to people reacting like that to lesbians being brougjt up cuz a lot of the time its borderline misogyny
Its fine ur fine lol

[rotund venture]

it will no longer be a boring stat stick in the hog wilderness

[dull heart]

The worst is camper

[grave geyser]

camper is definitely down there

[grave rock]

I like camper in concept

I havenr ever seen it

Be used

[dull heart]

The very core idea is fine

But everything about it sucks

[grave rock]

Uhhh i dont like the bloody worm scarf

[grave geyser]

bwsc would be like incredibly normal if it wasnt an expert item

[grave rock]

Nothing wrong w it, im just not super fond of a stat stick like that yk

I use it all the time

[dull heart]

bws is... Average

[grave rock]

I kinda wish it had atleast a minor gimmick like how rotten brain does

[dull heart]

Actually

[lyric trellis]

asa 💔

[cinder mural]

The only version of a working camper is the original one, being in tf2 xd

[grave geyser]

hote is another one

big glob of other items that just results in visual clutter

[dull heart]

Spectral Veil kinda sucks

ASA oh

[lyric trellis]

Rotten brain pre-2.1 was down there

[wise bolt]

ah...ic, condolences
lesbians & gays are both good imo for me it just comes down to writing

[dull heart]

Yeah it's ASA

[grave rock]

Oh i agree

Brainstorm gave it a big glowup tho

[grave geyser]

asa has like
an idea if nothing else I feel

its a bad idea but

[grave rock]

Whats asa

[grave geyser]

auric soul artifact

[grave rock]

Ahh

That

Is it the one that synergizes with a specific minion

[dull heart]

Yes, and in a bad way

[wise bolt]

hell torture

[mellow spade]

not only does it only affect one minion, the minion in question sucks

[lyric trellis]

Actually made it kinda unique instead of just an optimal pick for the majority of the game, thankfully

[rotund venture]

best btw might be AFR

[grave rock]

Would an accessory that gives a minor refund on any of ur multiple slot minions be good and or balanced

[urban cloak]

what did asa do before that change again?

[dull heart]

The issue is it's basically a stat buff

To one minion

[mellow spade]

wait did asa get reworked?

oh, no it didn't

[lyric trellis]

asa used to just summon 2 nuggets

[dull heart]

5 -> 4 slot cost

[urban cloak]

right yea

ty

[mellow spade]

All the soul artifacts kind of... suck ngl

PSA is kind of good I guess

[dull heart]

Meaning it's entirely dependent on the minion to be good

[grave geyser]

if it actually did this it would be better because at least then you could get a 4th one with minimal investment

[mellow spade]

ESA is just pure dogshit

[grave rock]

Mhm i kinda wish worm tooth/scarf also had a gimmick like brain

[mellow spade]

DSA is only good for full glass cannon

[dull heart]

Nah DSA and PSA are fine

[grave geyser]

esa is also bad yeah

[lyric trellis]

ESA 😭

[mellow spade]

I forget what the fifth one is

[dull heart]

ESA just chose terrible stats to give

[grave geyser]

oh actually I have one

all the other ones at least have ideas that are not that horendus

[dull heart]

ESA would be ok if it picked good stats

[grave rock]

I like any accessories/armors tjat buff ur hook

[mellow spade]

bloom stone, then

[grave geyser]

dark matter sheath's primary idea is fundamentally awful

[grave rock]

Brainstorm bloom stone is so peak

I love it

[dull heart]

Eh

I think DMS issue is actually really easy to fix

Make it still always consume all stealth

[lyric trellis]

What makes dms unique compared to the downgrades again, or are you just saying the entire line

[dull heart]

You can stealth at 50%, but it's weaker

[grave geyser]

dms is the first part of the line to get the strike cost to 50%

[grave rock]

I dont like tje quivers

[lyric trellis]

Stealth calculations will go to hell

[grave geyser]

what quivers are you refering to

[mellow spade]

Rogue doesn't need accessory nerfs
There's a few weapons that are way overtuned but the accessories are fine

[lyric trellis]

Equiver with less crit than deadshot lmao

[grave rock]

Elemental gauntlet Is also very boring 😔
Though ig its fine for there to be stat sticks

[grave geyser]

realistically most rogue accessories have some reasonable argument for worst

[mellow spade]

Stealth rogue as a whole feels a bit worse to play after brainstorm

[rotund venture]

OH I have a question about stealth I've been meaning to ask and forgot

[dull heart]

Eh

I don't think so

[lyric trellis]

Venlocket my goat

[dull heart]

Their issue is usually numbers more than concept

[rotund venture]

are the mechanics in molten amputator and Nblack a sort of test for the future Focus thing?

[grave geyser]

I mean I think numbers are still a part of the items design

glove of recklessness is a good example of the numbers just inherently having stupid design

[dull heart]

Yeah, but I think it has to be more than a numbers issue alone to be in the running for worst

[amber egret]

notted

[dull heart]

Like feather crown sucks but that's only bc it can't hit / does 0 dmg

[mellow spade]

i feel like the candidate for "worst" accessory can be found in some random boss expert mode drop

[wise bolt]

(dont actually im fuckin with u

[mellow spade]

those are usually pretty dogshit

[grave rock]

Tbf idk if its even a good idea to have every accessory have some special gimmick attached to it mayb its ok for stuff like elemental gauntlet to be like that

[amber egret]

fully aware lel

[amber egret]

also Yes

[wise bolt]

but seriously astrum vermis is. bluntly, not a great name for such a grand beast

[dull heart]

Not all accessories need gimmick yeah

[rotund venture]

yeah stat sticks do have a place

[dull heart]

Ok hear me out for worst accessory design

Asgardian Aegis

[grave geyser]

hmmmmm

[grave rock]

Kinda real

[dull heart]

Back when it had Elysian Guard

[amber egret]

i mean it Is as of current a space scourge. once we purify it itsnprob Good

[lyric trellis]

Elysian guard lmao

[grave geyser]

elysian guard is just kinda there

[mellow spade]

Here's one. Scuttler's Jewel.

[grave rock]

Astrum Vermis sucks sryy it sounds like a mini boss name

[mellow spade]

Might legit be the worst accessory in the mod

[dull heart]

Jewel is fine

[grave geyser]

I dont think it really hurt the items design outside of making it messy

[rotund venture]

it is v much not a scourge

[wise bolt]

yeah but you couldve thought of anything slightly more graceful 😭

[grave geyser]

jewel is one of rogues best designed accessories

[dull heart]

By what metric..?

[grave geyser]

the bar is low but still

[amber egret]

scourge (adjective) not scourge (boss type)

[dull heart]

jewel is like fine

and very strong

[grave rock]

Its like the mini boss u fight between aureus and deus and its weaker than aureus

[mellow spade]

It does nothing
Especially for how weak stealth rogue is pre-boss

[wise bolt]

-# i really dont like astrum vermis good grief dont call deus that. ever

[dull heart]

no

[grave geyser]

jewel is a simple accessory done well

[dull heart]

It is genuinely very good

[wise bolt]

banned

[amber egret]

idk i thought vermis (worm)

space worm

[wise bolt]

yeah, i know

[grave geyser]

also jewel is one of stealths best prehardmode accessories

[mellow spade]

that can't be right

[amber egret]

my fault gang!!

[grave geyser]

I have a mountain of tests to prove this very thing

[mellow spade]

i've gotten nothing out of it before

[grave rock]

Jewel Is kinda nice for slime and scourge

[amber egret]

what does tabidum mean might i chance

[dull heart]

if you used crystalline maybe it would suck

[mellow spade]

I guess so, then

[lyric trellis]

Jewel from 2-3 years where it was useless lmao

[dull heart]

but most of the items are fine

[grave rock]

Which are the bosses id expect it to have a use on

[wise bolt]

vermis is the word for worm, it also shares the definition with maggot, just as well iirc the word vermin stems from vermis so its like

ough. alrigh

[grave rock]

Astrum Vermis would be the name for boss minions

[grave geyser]

the only bosses jewel is outright not good on are stuff like qb and skele

[dull heart]

Thought: what if jewel had no spawn cooldown but had static iframes equal to the cooldown duration instead

[wise bolt]

rotting/melting/decaying iirc

[grave geyser]

hmmmm

[amber egret]

fair enouh

[grave rock]

Astrum Deus Is a peak name imo

[dull heart]

So jewel isn't screwed by crystalline type things

[dusk bronze]

[grave rock]

Aureus less so, idk

[amber egret]

i call it that bc A Choice Few

i will call it tabidum instead

Smiley

[grave geyser]

would definitely be a net buff I would tone down the damage a little if you did that

but it would help with its consistency and give it a very clearly defined niche of weapons it works well with

[grave rock]

Astrum Smiley...

[grave geyser]

I think my main worry would be multitarget like evil1 or sg

[wise bolt]

sidus is the word for constellation im p sure and tabidum is decay, so it would have been called the decaying constellation

[amber egret]

that is actually a fire mame

[grave geyser]

maybe it could have pierce falloff? if that would even be applicable here

[wise bolt]

deus still suits him the most though i feel, and in lore too

[amber egret]

so astrum tabidum would be the rotting/decaying star

[grave rock]

Top 5 hogs

[amber egret]

thats what i said !!!

its not auric enough apparently so he cant be called god

[wise bolt]

thats silly

[grave rock]

Can someone send the image of tje hog w the soda iv bag

[strong isle]

https://tenor.com/view/feeling-so-wawa-rn-rain-world-rainworld-inv-enot-gif-14187650054940823122

[dull heart]

imo

Most rogue accessories are screwed bc of random cooldowns and limits

[amber egret]

misread that as “feeling so western”

[solemn crest]

His lore item says that he was referred to as a god even though he wasn’t one I believe

[amber egret]

thats what i said!!!!

[dull heart]

They seem to have a niche then the niche doesn't exist

bc of random limits to make them less ncihe

i have some written stuff in regards to deus and the gods actually but i....dk if its canon or public even

[solemn crest]

Why are there two deuses? Deusi?

[solemn crest]

Or he just splits?

[wise bolt]

dei

[amber egret]

gamplay machanic i think

[wise bolt]

i have lore for that too .

[amber egret]

or the infection and sidum are not the same creature

[grave rock]

Why do they split

[grave geyser]

I think overall if it was like

• pierce falloff
• slight damage nerf
• honestly just kill the crystal shards they dont need to be there and it tones down the visual clutter this would create

its probably coming out the other side more widely applicable less dumb and just kinda healthier?

but ofc thats the kind of thing that you would have to actually test to be sure

[grave rock]

Was there lore for back when there were like 12 small deuses

[wise bolt]

currently its just gameplay but when we do get to reworking astral i have some thoughts about deus splitting

[grave rock]

N the fight sucked more

[wise bolt]

-# i do like his split mechanic. its cute

[solemn crest]

Astral infection update is the thing I cannot wait for

[wise bolt]

i want to keep it if possible, but make it fun to actually play hopefully

[wise bolt]

for. real.

[dusk bronze]

i agree

[grave geyser]

though I think there would probably still need to be a cap so stuff like bile doesnt spawn like 20 jewels

but it could easilly be very high like 10 or so to the point it wouldnt really come up in normal gameplay
