yes
But also why did the movement dash accessory have a ton of debuff immunities instead of like an actually a defensive focused accessory
i think the plan is to have a post ml ankh upgrade that actually focus on being defensive eventually rather than just
having one big do everything fuck you acc
trying to decentralize progression and just give the player more build diversity and all that
dont quote me on that tho but it's what i remember
That would be a lot more logical for a gameplay standpoint
accs that have a lot of random stuff glued to them is a product of an era where accs were designed like that sadly
amalgam is like that ngl
the debuffs come out of nowhere
Its from its materials but is a little odd
like if you look at other mods at the time of asgard valor introduction other mods had similar items, one example that comes to mind are thorium very late-game accs (the rainbow material ones)
Like the different random ingredients each correlate to one of the debuffs it applies
yeah but none of them do that
it also has the 200% buff thingy which is uh
I wish it had been put into a buff duration/permanence after death upgrade
wdym
eh sometimes you dont want it
remove it and add an alchemy flask upgrade 🚎
2023 UPDATE this video is 10 years old and Phoebe the pig is still alive and eating cookies! We will post updates soon. Until then, join us on Facebook! www.facebook.com/pigoinks
Since i can no longer unsee the hearts are off centered
hi there napoleon
calami tea cup pig
🐖
does the horrible hog drop disgusting meat
i'on think so
this is so funny out of context
Idk, it could
i think there should be a better way at getting scorched bones
are they gonna nerf the moonshine
it's like exactly where it should be
It's niche for specific setups
it's possible the honey dew changes might make it goated though
cant wait for hyperoptimized regenerator oneshot setups to be even funnier
top 10 glass cannon builds of the century
I forget if regenerator takes into account natural regen, but if it doesn't that would probably be a good buff to counteract all the other life regen nerfs going around
it does take into account natural regen
it actually accelerates natural regen by like 400% which just isnt listed on the tooltip lol
its actually a bit of an annoying balancing aspect about the item bc atm raw regen is basically never worth investing into
whats the diff between raw regen and regen
raw regen is stuff like band of regen and regeneration potion
+1 hp/s
natural regen is similar but is well, innate, but can be amplified
i thought raw regen was why facetanking was so incredible
where the amount of natural regen you get is based on how long you go without taking damage and your max health
eh
facetanking is strong atm because nothing exists to punish it
max health damage !!!!!!!!!!
raw regen is very rarely worth in a facetank over defense
doesnt cal punish def
no
because defense damage doesnt fucking exist on most things
which is why facetanking is so strong right now
ah
imagine an acc that reduces your damage if you get hit instead of your def
thatd be funny
damage damage
buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo
watching a yardis video: is the death valley duster line meant to not work with chaos stone
will john pork be in hog wild
i just dmed kai cenat and lost all my money
tragic
NOT AGAIN
how bro 😭
kai cenat promised to double my money but he gave it to the next person
doubled it too much the economy crashed
Why do mods keep banning all the nice people giving out money
no, it's a very odd bug
and i have no idea how it happens
does chaos stone change how the mana bar works to remove the concept of it being full
it changes how CheckMana() runs
but like
that's not being hit by the DVD line for the max mana check
the what line
death valley duster
because theyre secretly evil
iirc it's statMana >= statManaMax2
Which is correct
And chaos stone doesn't touch
i mean chaos stone does modify the bar
it allows infinite usage and also causes negative mana
is dvd checking that bar for max mana
That doesn't modify the bar
All it does is it tells items you have enough Mana to use the item always
And then raises Mana if it's below negative max mana
does it say that the mana bars full though? having enough mana for it vs having full are i think different
this specific description (which may be a paraphrase) seems that the weapons being told that it has enough to cast it but is Not being told that the mana bars full
^
It literally just checks if your Mana stat is greater/equal to your max
chaos stone does not mess with either of those valeus
no idea
since it plays the mana full sfx when you’re full i think
keyword i think
so id think that if the code for the mana full sfx playing was duped to dvd line i think itd work
unless the mana full sfx playing code Also doesnt run with chaos stone in which i dont know
This is like
You fix the door opening animation
The food on the table opens instead
You fix that too
But now toilet lid opens instead
coder walks into bar
sits down
neighbor flies into the ceiling
okay i know this is from like august last year but is there a somewhat up to date version thats public
this is latest one (maybe)
The hog ate them all
are u sure????????? gemini decimation still listed as laser redshift moonlight lmao
yes i know its really outdated
@dusk bronze
im asking for an up to date one
yea the guy i just pinged has one last i checked
if nobody got our back xzier got our back
basically the same but with the finalized names
nop
have the devs stated if they're working on an update to migrate calamity to 1.4.5 once tmod updates?
it will be done as soon as possible, according to them
kkayyy
they can't really do much right now since tmod has yet to update
but i'd wager a guess they've probably started planning for balance changes or whatever the fuck to 1.4.5 content
i hope Tiamat is dragon themed
calamity addons will also have to update to 1.4.5 and whatever changes in calamity too
1.4.5 has no content
silly Greasy Pete
😁
This is true, 1.4.5 actually removed all content
except fishing
Oh yeah except that
i bet the nidhogg is inspired loosely by railgunner from risk of rain
yep
reason why i won't update my game till most mods/addons are up to date
you can update terraria to 1.4.5 and tmod will still run on 1.4.4
i cant wait for pulse dragon to be obliterated
i know that part but i refer to tmod
wom
scooter
wom
wommy
It’s worm from calamity mod!
try unsubscribing and resubscribing on the steam workshop
make sure you dont have it in Documents/MyGames/Terraria/Tmodloader/Modseither not it being from a modpack with Tmod's modpack feature
hog today for sure
I have a feeling that hog wild will actually release on the 23rd of may 2026 at 13:61pm
Alright Apollo. If you're wrong we hill have you pecked to death by birds.
One must imagine piggyphus happy
what if I buffed dragon rage
That thing is aready broken
if true melee wants melee they're gonna use uuh
they got grand dad
yes but make it unusably small
I did make it 15% smaller you're right
in what moment did you nerf Dragon rage?
Smaller=Nerf
not in this case
Dragon Rage should be reworked into a Pdao (however its spelled, that Chinese weapon), Glaive or smth and have you swing it, atm its quite boring and has no range leading it to be busted as hell since it needs to match killtimes yet hits once in a blue moon unless its thanathos or hearts
What do you mean?
:(
did you reduce the amt of projectiles
yes
No
Tbh less projectiles but they deal more dmg is good
less lag
altho it does nerf Armor pen and Ichor's boost on them
Oh no! Sharpening station matters less!
Dragon rage is broken against worm bosses
its 12 ap
thats al ot of ap
thats like
6 whole defense ignored i think
yeah
RtN and Badge of Bravery also are armor pen
but for melee armor pen doesnt do much
unlike ranger and rogue
counter: no one uses badge of bravery
and mage
Badge of Bravery is extremely good
i cannot name a single person who uses badge of bravery at least ot my knowledge
Lategame ofc you get RtN
Maybe by exos you drop it
but like it's the best option post provi
besides gauntlet ofc
only because you dont use, it doesnt mean nobody uses it
what is this preboss acc doing in mid pml
That's way stronger than anything in pre-Hardmode.
Pre-boss 😭
that's better than fire gauntlet on a good amount of melee weapons
There are Hardmode accessories that are notably weaker than that.
pardon ?
i thought gauntlet had 15%
or weapons that go fast
bob totals to 20%
Gauntlet is 15% dmg and speed
but some weapons cant benefit from speed
- theres the fast hitter weapons that like armor pen
It also has 10% true melee, but a lot of weapons don't get true melee
Melee doesnt have that many but it has some that spawn a lot of projectiles on hit
or that shoot projectiles that spawn projectiles...
Badge of Bravery is just a common go to offensive
it's basically reaper tooth with 10 less AP
idk i have not seen basically anyone use it unless they're actually out of other options
same
then you haven't looked very hard I think
i did use it
its better than Celestial Shell offensively
i feel like its not that niche ngl
and most times you can bulk harder or just use smth like sand* shark tooth necklace
when it's obtained it's literally beaten only by fire gauntlet
SSTN is WAYY weaker
10% dmg vs 10% dmg 10% crit
Crazy niche option: just a better destroyer emblem
im feeling your over valuing crit chance. i am a lucky ambassador but 10% is not That good
10% crit chance is stronger than 10% dmg
Like
Mathematically
yeah thats why im a lucky ambassador
10% chance for x2 damage or 1.10x damage im pretty sure
Its such a small amount that it's negligible, so really just 10% crit = 10% damage
so like
SSTN
10% dmg, 10 AP
BoB
20% dmg, 5 ap
okay then why doesnt it say +20%
i know. why doesnt it give +20% (more realistically +15%) damage
great question
for making more dmg
red number make monkey brain go o ha ha
there IS difference in dmg and crit
but a baseline rule of thumb for measuring accessory value is 1-1 conversion
This breaks if using crit dmg modifiers
if you use eye of the Golem, now 10% crit is 10.75% damage instead of 10%
(actually even more because crit dmg is not a saturated stat)
we can start hunting and killing hogs?
i do
it can be a good accessory
Random Question: What is the current plans for the Cryonic, Perennial, and Scoria Item sets? Are there any planned changes to these honestly quite boring weapon sets to like make them less i guess formulaic with like the same exact weapon kinds in each set, such as all of them having a yoyo, a spear, a sword, a bow*, a spell tome, etc.
they'll be changed eventually
I assumed as much they are quite boring as is
why do u need a mythril anvil for wings
not for all wings
again, not all wings
oh my goooooooooooooooood why
its just progression
its always good to check how something is crafted before grinding for it
magic storage and recipe browser should both show you any changes to the recipe
harpy wings have always been like, completely beginning of hardmode
I will say that does feel a little odd to only tier-lock it via its crafting station instead of like an actual ingredient
Like it is way harder to miss like an ingredient you can't get yet than the text saying a mythril anvil
In vanilla you get all the ores instantly
Thats why it was from the beginning
i realize that but i think its silly that u can make angel wings and whatnot but not harpy wings which are the same tier
I'm pretty sure at least in vanilla harpy wings are slightly stronger than angel/devil wings
i still fight with either triple balloon or aerialite wings 
yeah but u gotta grind a little more for them
until those same can no longer keep up with any fight
i mean im debating using wap butdunno
Yeah they're as good as frozen wings actually!
It is weird how fairy wings which in vanilla are harpy/frozen wing tier strength aren't locked to a hardmode anvil while the others of its tier are
Wait they just require a work bench?
no they need a iron/lead anvil
Oh
because calamity makes mythril/orichalcum post mech-1 (or technically several other hardmode bosses through shimmer)
I feel like that's another extremely weird thing like how spider armor only needs spider fangs and can otherwise be crafted without hardmode stations
I know your talking about calamity but like 1.4.5 made spider armour require hardmode anvil
that's an absolute ass change
its kinda irrelevant in vanilla
I don't like the change either since like your not using metal so like why at an anvil
but cal might change it back
craft spider armor at loom 
It does kinda make summoner have to wait a little longer for their armour but like its only a little
I guess only for extremely specific challenge runs ig
yeah cuz as early hardmode summoner in cal
spider armor is one of your few options iirc
relevant xkcd
its your only (actually on-tier) option at the start of hardmode
Calamity will definitely change it since locking all summoner armours to post 1 mech would be insane
also even in vanilla it does kind of force summoners to like immediately interact with hardmode ores which like either means fishing or breaking altars, with the latter like having downsides like enabling random annoying pirates which often doesn't feel fun
I wonder does calamity do anything regarding the chlorophyte extractinator to make it useful before you get chlorophyte?
it requires chlorophyte why would it need to be good before you get chlorophyte

Calamity does add some new extractinations for it though, mainly just purifying astral stuff, including turning astral ore --> meteorite and astral bars --> meteorite bars
Well the way it works currently in vanilla is kind of like exclusively for people who need to like collect all ores, I thought maybe it could've been renamed/repurposed in calamity because I honestly stay like 10 feet away from that
it also does let you turn shadow scales into tissue samples so like it has uses
Shimmer makes getting all prehardmode ores easy
And hardmode ores both generate anyway
like maybe making it so that it is used for calamities evil biome items to convert between them could expand it but like calamity makes the other evil biome available all the way back in prehardmode so like there wouldn't really be a need
I do actually now wonder if in the 1.4.5 port if any calamity items will be made renewable through extractinator like how sand was handled so like skyblock could obtain otherwise unobtainable blocks
shimmering shimmer should give craftjuice which upgrades stuff instead of decraftong
Looking through calamity's blocks like there are a couple that would be unobtainable I'm pretty sure in skyblock: Abyss Gravel, Vernal Soil, Eutrophic Sand, Scorched Remains, Infernal suevite & Draedon Lab items, as well as stuff made from them, and also Navystone and Brimstone Slag because while they're renewable I'm unsure if the mobs that drop them can only spawn on them too, and maybe the other abyss materials since I'm not too certain of the requirements of the enemies that drop them. Additionally I guess maybe auric ore could be an issue since skyblock+fortheworthy has no shimmer island and like no auric ore would realistically generate so like idk how'd you'd get any
Actually interesting calamity will end up making silt available in skyblock worlds thanks to how novae slag gets converted since it can turn slush (which is obtainable) into novae slag into silt
No it should actually give "dimmer" when shimmered which also causes some items to become permanent stat decreases
can someone help me. this happen when i click update vfx+ recently
Hi chat Crispy loves you
Hi
Thank you crispy
I love weaving my clothes made out of Spider Fangs at a Loom!
I guess, point is what crafting station would logically make sense to craft armor made out of Spider Fangs?
I don't doubt there are plenty of other examples like that in the game, though it doesn't really matter
It 100% doesn't make sense at the hardmode anvil because its not a metal and its not an inherently magic material which since like some recipes involving souls are made there magic recipes at hardmode anvils are kind of a thing but again spider fangs fit neither of those groups
Solution: Spider crafting station.
true also make spider furniture crafted there
does calamity have 1.4.5 or nah
not yet
that won't happen for a while when both tmodloader ports and then calamity will take a bit to port
Not yet
Try again in
Uhhhh
2 or 3 months?
Since
Bigger and boulder isn't in tmod yet
Hog boulder when
in 4 seconds
probably More
death mode twins are really hard....
Closer to 6-7 months
also pretty sure vulkan needs to be buffed
its single target is worse than death valley duster which is preboss
mana use is way too high for its dps
plus its pretty much single target which is bad for mechs
whats vulkan again?
magic gun
LIKE THE FUCKING VOLCANO CALLED VULCANO
anyway
oh the new arsenal magic gun thing
Zix Zevennn
Hi
boooooo 💥 💥 💥
Wait random thought I wonder how dramatically chillet and roller skates will be nerfed when 1.4.5 calamity eventually happens
honestly since calamity does actually increase your base movement speed stuff iirc skates might not be like as broken but like chillet is a pre-boss ram dash with +10% damage so like they're getting nerfed into obliteration definitely
what if there were like bug untesters and their sole job is to undo the progress of the bug testers
hold on your cooking
thats me
for every true report someone makes in dev i make 3 false ones
morning midnight
yep
I do think some people think it's worse than it is because they're just using the right click and then holding M1, so it's suboptimal
But also it might still be too weak then for a weapon that you kinda need to manage a lot
how am i supposed to uyse it?
which ones vulcan
is that the burst fire harpoon
because it doesnt feel very good compared to its contemporaries
yeah
It's just right clicking before the gun winds down fully to extend how long it's firing, here's an example
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/452207242574299146/1478687589249843241/Terraria__This_is_a_message_to_my_master_2026-03-04_01-32-22_Trim.mp4
oh that is Not explained at All
i thought it was harpoon to make the projectiles home then hold lc
I mean
the damage is actually decent but it maybe should have one pierce
and lower mana cost
yeah implicitly i expect "if a harpoon is out, the burst mode will last longer while the harpoon is active"
not "the action of launching the harpoon causes the burst to extend"
Could use some wording adjustments to make it more clear
yeuh thatd be good
even with mana cuffs its just unreliable to continue to use for a long time because of the mana drain
also the fact that it makes shots home does also make it feel like you're supposed to launch then fire rather than fire and launch
ugh i wish mana was good
this is the best idea ive ever heard ever
calamity needs 200 bug untesters
i think the mod would actually go viral if they did that
I volunteer my services, I am amazing at being stupid
viral as in... viruses
the mod installs viruses on ur pc
someone should make a mod that installs a virus on your pc every time you die in game
this is a great idea
surely nothing could go wrong with that 
where did the yharon roar come from
u ever think about that
cause its sampled like 20 times across the mod
and its iconic
what if its like someone's cat yawning
Programmers!

is there an evil middle ground that neither tests nor untests but instead makes the tests and untests confounding
I kinda wish fishing was easier to get into as calamity has a lot of cool fishing exclusive items and generaly just nice things
Star fish for early game mages, sea spirit amulet being one of the coolest pre hm accessories, some fish weapons
I hope SSO will do something about it
I forgot about enchanted starfish they're very interesting but like do kinda feel a little weird since like they stop being useful after you've maxxed your mana
As there will be a lot of water and fish involved
Getting bait early game is quite a chore
You either need to find a can of worms which you arent guaranteed at all or get 50 silver, get a merchant, buy bug net and begin a slow process of braking background objects in hope of worms and grasshoppers
There are wulfrum fishing rod and wulfrum bobber which can make it a bit less painful
2.2 tomorrow
lie
Imagine if he announcement will be "Check Steam"
that'll be the announcement for the yharim update
Yharim is canceled
I never got to try the weird fishing bobber accesories tnat add like a minigame
why
Yharim is cancelled we will actually be fighting his superior jharim
I think Fargo's giving hooks more bobbers broke it
Turn it off then
I didnt think to do that
And then I got the Dreamcatcher from WotG which is just a free win on all fishing forever
Still cant believe they added that and Interstellar Bait and just hand it out to you
Wotg is a weird ass mod
As long as you start catching bugs from the start, you should be set
Expecially around town during the night/day
Sometimes big amount of bait fly around
Also you can also shimmer herb bags into cans of worms for a ton of bait
You want me to find shimmer on the very first day of the playthrough?
Also herb bags are also rng
shrine
makes it easy
Not the first day but like its not hard to find it in the first couple days in game
guaranteed herb bags in the space draedon lab
Jungle
The shrine on the surface does make finding it easy
Trivial even
even easier way
Also like even without it just breakimg those small rocks and catching worms is fairly easy
With all listed above its not realistic to do all this on the first day of a regular playtrough not aiming to do exactly that
50 silver is like nothing and 100% possible day one to get bug net
What about pure calamity
Wait doesn’t cal even add a recipe for bug net
No
I’m pretty sure it does or at least did
i tried doing that and i didn't enjoy it
but the shrine near the edge of the world on the same side as the jungle is pretty easy to find
unless it's on a fucking living tree like it always is if i don't disable generating living trees
Prisma juicebox is just alchemist npc in a trench coat
Ok it did it was removed in brainstorm though
except the trench coat was freshly cleaned
alchemistnpc lite is alchemistnpc in a dirty stinky outdated trench coat
Alchemist npc is still alchemist npc even if its in a trench coat
Also alchemistnpc has like actually just cheaty items like ninja potion
But you definitely can start fishing day 1 even in vanilla since like merchant only needs 50 silver which is like 1 wooden chest at worst
Sure but for that you need to focus purely on trying to fish on the first day
Not really its just build 2 houses and start exploring
It doesnt occur naturaly that "oh, I want to fish today"
I only get to fishing when I want to play terraria without playing terraria
Thats more of a fishing issue rather than it not being like easy to fish day 1 or whatever
That what I was talking about from the start
I guess fishing can be better in multiplayer but its multiplayer
Oh I was confused It seemed like you were having issue with early game fishing ability to at all do it
Fishing loot: goog
Fishing process and all steps that you need to do before fishing: not goog
Like sunken sea has some cool fishing loot but I doesnt provide you with any places where you can start fishing without prep
Okay yeah that is an issue but like SSO will definitely be the time when they’d fix that
Calamity makes it more easier, by making the angler quests rewards after specific amount of quests
Also an issue with early game fishing for me is that to be ready fish anywhere you need to take up at least 2 inventory slots which fill up realy easily in early game due to simple exploration
That means you are fishing too early
If you dont even have piggy bank
But the quests still suck pretty much
If you mean bait and rod like you can just put your bait in your ammo slots
But if I start fishing later the loot will have nearly no value to me
Then why are you taking underground loot when you want to fish it up?
If you are instantly fishing before even having merchant
Then you most prob dont have good amount of bait and gear to protect yourself
But when I have all the gear I dont need to fish anymore
I love joining conversations about fishing when I’ve done about 30 minutes of fishing in my 2000 hours of playing terraria
Before trasher strat was removed people were going for it because how easy and competitive with exploration it was
Trasher stacking was just bummy though
It completely removed any fishing progression till post moon lord
Wdym you get to skip all the way to pre evil 2 minus some boss loot
Even then probably so few people even know there are even post-moonlord rods
when would you consider it "too early" and "too late" for yourself
fishing kind of always has good loot in a sense cause there are many fish that are required to craft useful potions
Imagine if there was a fishing hut near one of the oceans so you could start fishing early but not as op as trashers were
Wrath potions are literally just avenger emblem level boosts which is crazy good
accessories and other stuff can def get outclassed at some point tho but i feel like a lot of them are useful for a while unless you're fully maxxing out before your first boss
i would probably do it at least after i get a good armor set, accessories, and a halfway decent weapon first...
I love buying these potions
logically speaking wrath potions are better for more classes than rage potions because summoner exists
Only reason I’d prefer corruption over crimson if I didn’t have potion vendors
VAMPIRE KNIVES!!!!
Honestly is there anything that like corruption has over crimson in terms of which is better as the actual like main world evil
You can get most of the content from the other evil but like vampire knives are like 10x better than scourge if the corruptor and like I feel like most crimson mimic loot is better than corrupted so them being easier to fight is nicer too
hey i havent checked since the update about the brain of cuthulu
anything major thats new?
the Hog
putrid scent, i guess?
+5% damage is ass compared to flesh knuckles
Reduced aggro is such a bad thing since like it would be so much less useful than having 1 player with increased aggro
but hey it's 5% damage and crit
Emblems outdo that though
They inherit the ass decreased aggro right
chain guillotines is cray
Fetid bagnakhs are my beloved though
The true-est melee
But like generally in pre-hardmode crimson is easier since theres actually space underground for a decent boss arena
And in hardmode most evil-biome specifics don’t matter as much since you can make the opposite one
The only things that matter for hardmode main evil is I guess which is easier to contain (neither is both suck), biome chests (crimson is objectively better) and like biome mimics since the main evil’s one is easier to spawn
Cnidarian is actualy slept upon
Both fun and effective weapon
Also got sea spirit amulet on tier
A bit underwhelming
I would want to use it but stat accessories are just more consistent
just fought provi for the first time since 2.1 and damn, her visuals are good
the spawn animation is absolutely gorgeous
imo it's the best visual effect in calamity
dev team cooked
yay
And the new visuals make attacks more readable
Especially the crystal
Old crystal was such an annoyance
DoG may have gotten the biggest glowup but I think Providence still has to be my favourite fight visually
Wouldn’t Brain be the biggest glowup given that DoG is still essentially building off of the same base
the brain and dog had the biggest glowups
DoG is basically damage control
true
but the brain needed the rework
bountiful harvest boc was so ass i would fight the eater instead if i wasn't so stubborn
hive and perfs are mid tbh
2.1 Hive Mind is. Okay
but that's because they've essentially been unchanged since idk
I'd say DoG because it's a post-ML boss so you expect more from it
From a purely mechanical standpoint I think Brain needed it more
In other respects DoG needed it more
BoC rework is still peak tho don't get me wrong
it's almost like the new fight works with any music pack
which one, BoC or DoG
boc
ah
I still have my minor issues with 2.1 Brain, but I think it’s one of the better Terraria bosses out there period
i accidentally found my favorite soundtrack for death brain while playing rogue
That’s an incredibly far cry from Fabsolian Brain
I think the BoC nerfs were a bit unnecessary tbh
Yea it actually has ideas for a crimson boss beyond ichor
The Ennway glaze is real (and deserved, I think)
i wonder if the eater will have a similar roar like the brain
Ennway made Wayfair King Slime so I have to agree
There a couple p2 attacks that arguably still need more nerfs
Everware eoc is pretty damn good
I don't find BoC to be too difficult
Namely the random ichor rain, and only because of the blood spreads in it
never heard of everware
Maybe the one where it teleports around and shoots the blood scythes but that's kind of it
Ichor rain is the lamest attack boc can do rn i think
I do not like when boc is given ichor just because muh crimson
But idk maybe I've just gotten very good at the fight
GANONDORF TENNIS IS NOT LAME
TAKE THAT BACK
I do find a lot of the p2 attacks oddly… static and uninteresting
Find Luigi is really funny tho
why do ichor rain’s bombs not bounce
Ichor rain is Ganondorf tennis? It's been a while since I fought them, and I didn't fight them much, but I feel like I should remember that
I love the Find Luigi attack
Like it has Ganondorf Tennis and Find Luigi and the illusion dash and then it has. Spread of projectiles. Ring of projectiles. Row of projectiles
i never saw that during my play though since i used Basher
which was Pretty Fuckin Good
It's called Dead Man's Volley!!!
One of the patches gave the attack a bomb that you can reflect to the boss by hitting it
Cool
I didn’t know you could reflect the bomb
boc is a case where it has more attacks than it needs to
I don’t really mind the attack but it being ichor is like
Eh.
Half of the bombs can’t get reflected until you kill them for some reason?? But still
cant fuckin type
i agree, but its a good problem to have
eyes and hands hurt. i am n hell
more than likely caused by being pretty much concepted and programmed by one person
i like how unique they all are while still feeling coherent
That’s the other thing, and this might sound dumb
Brain being as good as it is is a problem 
A modded BoC starts firing off ichor and im like
Yeah you would
its literally The Crimson Material im not sure what else you're expecting tbh
It sets an insanely high standard for Cal’s vanilla changes that I think isn’t even generally desired in dev
erm… blighted gel….
i suppose brain doesn't really need to use it because its a prehm boss but like still
I mean theres more theming to crimson than ichor and boc has zero relation to ichor
no one cares about blighted gel be real bro
if i compare this to baldurs gate 3, does that comprehend
Blood
Organs
I have not played BG3
i guess thats fair
“if other bosses try to match the effort put into 2.1 boc, theyre just gonna burn out and not get made”
Perfs can have ichor ig
probably consequence of this again
it was a big discussion like. a year ago?
Especially pml perfs can have ichor
stuck with me
I don’t like both having ichor
eows got cursed flames
Esp with it being a hardmode debuff usually
The same applies to that i didnt think it needed to be said
Do you think it would be in the cards to simplify Brain a bit? Remove some of the p2 attacks, for example
i think this is a major sticking point for boc. boc is a really good fight but they also had like 2 years
it'll depend on how we tackle vanilla bosses in general in the future
brain only is how it is today cause people were just kind of doing whatever during sso cause no one wanted to work on it anymore
it should not be the standard it should be a notable outlier thats above the expected standard
They had less than one. Fabsol was removed last May.
BoC was done over about 3 months I think
present day calamity dev has some more structure in that i probably can't just start working on reworking like. moon lord. and have dev focus switch entirely on that
also yeah brain started like late summer 2025
whered i hear it took a year
idk lmao
like three people told me that
whoever told you that lied
Seems good to hear
okay well my point crumbles to dust and blows away then
idk cal devs should be tarred and feathered i guess??? whats the argument to make for make bosses cooler
on yharons auric soul we have gotta get eow with a cursed flamethrower
the argument is that they are all BORING and need to be sauced up
yeah but whats the argument that sm1 like nuclear terror needs souped up
we just need to like actually work together on them as a team cause brain was more the brainchild of big e before the decision to release brainstorm
what does nuclear terror even do
aside from looking cool
its a really big water skater
Look at acid rain as a whole dude
sm1 Like
i picked a random late game example
do you need like 12 superstars to rework king slime
You picked an unremarkable miniboss from a supremely boring event so
it dont feel like it at least
imagine if it was a shark
and had a chainsaw
the big thing we need is simply for that to be something the team is prioritizing work on
Ichor is blood.
Acid Rain Tier 3 is practically Slime Rain 2
if we're updating acid rain as a whole and people feel like nuclear terror could use some improvements then we work to improving it
alternatively someone could just present ideas and if the team's fine with it then it can be developed
There is one new enemy that makes up the majority of the event
And a specific miniboss that gets spammed
And it goes way longer than it feels any need to
rework terror and mauler into a single boss, with terror riding the shark csm style
Yeah you sold me
i (personally. my take.) think that centering a focus around one Large thing (events or main stage boss) means that bosses that dont fit either niche kinda get left out
this would kick ass as an addon
what doze said is also true though that it needs to be related to smth the team is prioritizing at the current moment as opposed to just showing up and announcing you're doing it immediately
i forgot the mauler exists
I can’t believe acid rain had a whole update shit was dire
when most often these bosses are also not problematic for like one or two people to hammer out instead of requiring the direct focal of the whole team
im sure half the community doesn't know mauler is real cause of how rarely it spawns ngl
isnt it just a really rocky shark
Brown Shark
big brown irradiated shark with some actually cool behavior
oh no fuckin wonder ive never heard of the sulph acid cannon
If it weren’t for Old Duke and my liking for fighting all bosses I’d never ever give acid rain my time
I think I've done acid rain 3 one time ever
i saw the mauler once
i think it functioned like duke and had only one attack
Acid Rain 3 is the event equivalent of scrolling instagram reels
the only reason i've done acid rain at all on any char is for the summoner acc from the first miniboss
Acid Rain 1 and 2 have good stuff in general
It's only 3 that feels really out of place
i do acid rain t3 bc its a good dps test
- im there alr for abyss shit
for example, right click grand dad 2.1.0
it kinda feels like filler content
Be. Gone. - me to a random ass nuclear terror
I'm not really sure what to do to make tier 3 feel more real though at the moment
Maybe add more than one enemy lmao
Well. Step 1 would be to make it actually threatening
doesn't it also add the gamma slime
and make it so the minibosses all actually spawn
i got this. have t1 be preboss, t2 post skeletron, and have t3 post as
That is the one enemy
that way, you never need to touch thre sea Ever Again
Other two are minibosses and Mauler is obsolete cause that mf not showing up
minibosses are fake anyway
Plus i know this is a known thing but all mobs have the same exact unappealing palette
Its a brainless, boring, droning event that you just sit through and take in nothing of it
Ok i killed nuclear terror
Wow heres another one immediately
Rinse and repeat for 10 minutes or so
tier three is victim of Calamity AoE Powercreep
Among other things
@ crit start testing all post ml weapons on acid rain 3
It’s arguably worse than moon refights cause at least there there is a threat

Being overtuned enemy stats
The threat of acid rain is falling asleep and dying to old duke bc you're asleep at the keyboard
post-dog moons and eclipse are so boring
Similarly to Calamitas Clone
the Warp, the Crush, and the Flare
how is that at all similar to clone
all gonna be in the distortion
i dont think so
Threat of falling asleep
L take
Brother she is just twins again
maybe pre 2.1
Sure she got a visual update wowie
but having limited space means you need to actually pay attention
Abd the visuals are great
i gan name three bosses that are teins again
Not really you just go up and down
scal (somewhat)
cclone
exo hunters
cal player when you move in a direction .
I prolly fucked up the what I was tryna say before so here
It's def case sensitive in terms of how many people actually need to work on that stuff yeah
What I was getting at was that we don't want stuff like that to randomly crop up while we're in the middle of developing a focused update. It nerd to either be planned out in advance or discussed before agreeing to put more focus on it
can we get young duke in new acid rain 3
/j.
Twins alignment chart
Twins - twins AI
Twins visual - not twins
cue the unique ai gif with ret, calclone and her brothers
This yeah
One guy could totally program a skeletron rework by themselves. I could prolly do that if I wanted to. But it still needs to be tested for bugs and feedback and all that
all bosses are either retinazer or biome mimic
Or brain of Cthulhu
Plus if you want any custom assets for it like sprites and sounds that's more to consider
calvin and hobbes meme
scal? retinazer. duke fishron? biome mimic
Current SCal and Calclone 
Shoehorning that into an already focused update is how you get updates like bountiful harvest and brainstorm cause it takes away from what were meant to be working on
despite ravager being a biome mimic, it is both
CalClone is literally Retinazer but on his own you cannot argue that
The border is a bandaid solution
they do funny attacks!!
This does not mean it's a "fall asleep" moment though
In my experience it really is
gfb should make it into flappy bird
it does depend on difficulty
2 minutes of the infernum prof guards p1
#suggestions-posting message go my cool suggestion
i hate how true this is
mid suggestion
everything is mid if it's not roots
Retinazer is in roots
i would hope retinazer is in roots it would be pretty weird for it to just remove half of a boss like that
The Single
doze can you give a highball estimate on roots’s completion
- Scal is like retanazer
- Retinazer is in roots
- scal is good
plot twist: roots deletes every single boss in vanilla and makes completely new ones from scratch
sure, by 2160
the temperature is 80 degrees
the temperature is rising
therefore, 80 is rising
glad you get it
sun lord will be real 🙏
star god
instead of brain of cthulhu you get to fight the liver of cthulhu
Dirt Lord
Is there even a dirt themed modded boss
King Slime ❌
Jungle Tyrant Yharslime ✅
one of the twins should be replaced with this guy
Spazmatism becomes him
Retanazer stays the same
Add fovenator
what does it do
True
isn’t that that one arcade game myth
new addon dropped, Doze's Calamity Boss Replacement
All bosses now are storm weaver with the right stats for their tier
Except dog, who stays the same
polyphemalus but theres like 50 of them attached together and they form a big circle around you
The Net of Cthulhu
calamity swap mod where i swap storm weaver with crabulon for no reason
i'd swap hive mind with ares gauss nuke cannon i think
pet him
worm steaver
it's a good thing storm weaver has good colors like blue and pink and purple because otherwise i'd have no reason to like him
storm weaver phase 1 design is peak
he gets ugly when naked
storm weaver should really put some damn clothes on in phase 2
when we get to storm weaver in dlc i should ask to give him clothes in phase 2
that can be the one and only emode resprite
add a mosaic blur filter across the whole body
😭
calamity dev threatens to rework boss
you forgot sadistic and surprise
calamitie
weaver (silksong spoilers)
this community isnt ready for the conversation about how wotg post ml is literally silksong act 3 /j
I cant believe silksong copied wotg
same
think about it

-literal apocalypse happens after you thought you were done
-need very powerful plant to go fight and end the apocalypse
-books for solyn's bookshelf are like mementos
||
I dont know if anybody playing calamity thinks they're done after moon lord
yeah but the idea that its like a false epilogue
say that again...
yes i know
next your going to tell me hornet is a legend who suffers strife...
Biggest calamity update and still no murasama rework that was teased a year ago. 🥀
Because it's not a priority.
Why on Earth would updating a joke weapon be a priority?
They should just remove it at this point. Would do us a lot of good.
Earth calamity mod weaponreference
You will be boiled.
Muramasa more like muramassa
That's the blue one.

Such a bad weapon that its name is one letter off a different one
murasama is not a joke weapon
yes it is
Save us murasama
its like an eternal prank on the dev team to generate discontent over every update that doesnt rework it
so its a joke weapon, but the joke is on the devs
it's not a joke weapon it's the immortal snail
It may not be a joke weapon but it sure is a joke of a weapon or something
honestly I think it’s for the best of the community to get the mura rework sooner than later
1 update goes by and it’s “when’s the next murasama rework???”
i agree
as much as i dont like the murasama, i hate ppl constantly bitching about it more
five billion murasama reports
I just hope it’s cool when it does drop
it will be
Then I’ll be satisfied
now my wish for the murasama to be de referenced and become its own awesome sword is something I recognize to be a pipe dream
Missed opportunity for April Fools 2026 to rework murasama into a beam sword clone tbh
Especially since that would mean you could drop the actual Murasama rework on April 1st in some other year and people would think it’s a joke
And then they actually use it and go hey wait a minute
revolutionary new means of april fools pranks
That's April Fools 2026
idgaf about myassama look at kitty
tik tokkers wish they could have a fraction of your power draegpt
i thought that was horselamity
Kitter💗
Oh I didn’t know you’re a dev now
see it wobble
I know it’s passed but like it would’ve been a really good bit right
He will be baked soon
good thing because I can finally easily differentiate between gp and gpscorpion
with the breakneck pace he's going at? you'll never catch him
I will use my evil wizard magnet hands
Baby kitties are immune to Magnetism. ❌
I'd hope the difference in name length made that obvious
Done. ✅
The wobler
Oh, if only ye knew
Pirate vagueposters be like
Do we think shroombles deserve rights
no
you mean the one from dont build the torment nexus?
perhaps
Bnuy
He is a pancake because he is stupid
bnuuy...
I’m finally going to have internet tomorrow 🥳
yeah
stop this madness
very
if frigidflash gets nerfed because of you i am sending a horde of rabid apes directly towards your house
If you nerf frigidflash I'm genuinely like going into calamity hq and leaking everything
Nerf frigidflash = become hog food
Slop my beloved
you are the only sane person in my vicinity
meow
mrow
Pretty Pubby
genuinely one of the cats of all time
this is a dog
i love how calamity mech progression makes excalibur 100% obsolete
i mean dont get me wrong i love calamity mech progression but its a really funny side effect
Oh yeah ig you typically just upgrade it to true Excalibur immediately
actually iirc excal at a base is stronger than texcal
Is it?
i think so
Pretty sure True Excalibur still has a longer range, so it's not really a downgrade
of course, it's also certainly not a direct upgrade
oh how i love cryophobia
genuinely such a fun weapon even if its a little niche
its so fun to use against plantera
Cryophobia is stupid. Let snow get married
like, random as hell weapon i would never use in a normal playthrough
Longer range
Yes
this is why i do subclass playthroughs cause they give me a reason to use weapons that are otherwise overshadowed
Not to mention you have more options to increase attack speed compared to calamity
(Since excal benefits a lot from attack speed)
Someone do the math on the DPS
to whoever made transformer (assuming it was xyk), thank you so much
i've been using it since it was first available and im using it against plantera rn
this is the most fun accessory in the game
i also think plantera is one of the most fun bosses
next to providence
playing mage, my setup was gleaming magnolia for single target, then i'd switch to cryophobia for the second phase and stack up big waves
plus mixing in ion blaster for mana regen + cool strong burst attack, and transformer since she shoots a ton of projectiles and charges it up rlly fast
brainstorm is so good guys..,.
Hi guys
I wanted to post in suggestion posting channel but I don't know if my suggestion breaks a rule
you can probably ask people if it's good enough to post
now pair it with slagfire douser
i dont understand
lol
It’s not a bug it’s a feature
Thats gone but like wings were now given some more variety in their flight stats or something
bro
