Why.
same
in my humble opinion silksong improves on hollow knight in every single way
<- unable to finish any game ever
That’s not enough of an excuse, go finish it!!!
I think I got a little bit into act 3 and then “took a break” indefinitely
Skong genuinely rules
I have no actual excuse I just didn’t finish it
WRONG!
Tied with AC6 for my number one game ever
Dung Defender isn't on it.
AC6 being there is in direct spite of a lot of complaints though 
Ok but it’s hard and wounded my ego so it sucks
i just took breaks from silk song and just sorta have not properly got back in even tho i can face the final boss
I'd say Grimm isn't on it too but i still have
i love silksong so much i could throw up
ok true actually silksong sucks
Some semblance of belief that Grimm Dlc Two Electric Bogaloo could maybe happen
idk if i need to say what my fav game is
I feel like the grimm troupe nad nightmare bullshit is something that could be expanded on
And not only that, it'd actually
make sense
I love silksong so fucking much it makes me want to merge without looking
their whole thing is travelling between kingdoms
unlike alot of other characters from HK
grimm troupe could actually make sense to return
also yeah trobbio
I think like half of the bosses are at least as good as Grimm so it’s okay
i think it's entirely plausible that trobbio isn't connected to the troupe in any way and just has vaguely similar aesthethics and i think it's more likely if anything
But also if he HAD some sort of connection to then i also wouldn't be surprised
You don’t understand, *the Troupe invented running a show and being red!
im so fucking biased because i love grimm but i'd love to see grimm in silksong. i thignk he would show up in pharloom and trobbio would IMMEDIATELY become #1 grimm troupe follower
if we ever get a grimm troupe dlc i can see trobbio getting involved purely out of his love for theatre not really cause there was any pre-established deep connection that we dont know about yet
nowadays not as much
yeah what carny said
but i still do really like him and his lore
my exact line of thought
i think he's a cool character :)
Yeha this would make alot of sense actually
i dont think he's actually inherently connected to the troupe i think he'd just be like bffs with grimm
I’d say the troupe could canonically show up but (Silksong endgame) ||Pharloom does not die||
Yeah it'd actually be interesting if they come in || expecting it to already be a dead kingdom only to be greeted with one that's slowly rebuilding ||
wonder what the results of that would be
||reminds me that i really hope in a future update or dlc or something you get to see pharloom after you free it from the void in act 3 it makes me sad that you dont get to see it go back to "normal"||
Grimm walks into Hornet’s room with his big speech about his role in destiny and she just takes one look at him and cuts his horns clean off
|| i am praying taht we get a epilogue dlc of sorts. fuck it act 4 ||
🙂↕️
Yeah
ambitious tc has been with silksong i genuinely am not putting it out of question
they have literally all the resources they can do anything
they said they have ambitious plans for dlc so hehe
its only a matter of if they want to or if they think it'd be good for the gmae
i mean lets be real
they should let you smoke weed wtih lace
|| i feel like its almost guaranteed we'll get a dlc dealing with pure vessel and shade lord and their current state in the world ||
YEAH WE NEED PURE VESSEL
god i really want to see pv again
Er, sorry, I want PV, but whatever
||i mean specially pure vessel like. the cliffhanger on the godhome ending would be FAR too big for them NOT to address it and also
the game STILL has hollow knight in the title, but the main story has a grand total of zero (0) hollow knights in sight or notable connections to them ||
oh right hk survives the shadelord ending
sorry im not a hollow knight lore buff the "canon" ending is tghe one where radiance dies righ
big guy literally just walks out of the egg and the screen cuts to black like
🥹
there's GOTTA be smth they're planning
|| it's implied godhome is the canon ending , since in the act 3 cutscene we see ghost briefly appear as shade lord ||
i sea
my terrible confession is that i never finished godhome dlc and i also never fought the radiance 😭
i really want to see pv just get to enjoy life for once . let them just be a npc somewhere in town that is just chilling and existing
that would be so cute
wholesome family moments with hornet and her big sibling and her wife
woke family
woke family
woke family
actually i wonder what happened to all the other bugs caught by the infection after the godhome ending
like are they free or part of the void now
the cutscene just showed the infections vines growing black and silksong's showed us that the void can influence regular bugs in act 3
they die
godhome ending is not the same as act 3
||the infection is gone and the knight probably just went and fucked off to the void as the shade lord||
||act 3 the void latched onto the silk of gms||
||because void eats soul and silk is soul||
i probably should put all that in spoilers
it depends
most bugs taken over by the infection are husks
yeah
they're reanimated corpses
but some are semi sapient, like the colosseum bugs
i imagine those guys' minds snapped out of the infection's influence
but the husks and all just came back to being dead
its likely most of them die unless they are in very early stages of infection
If the state of infected bugs is anything like the state of haunted bugs as described in Underworks journal entries, they wouldn’t be alive without it
they're somewhat similar yeah
as in they keep doing what they were doing before being taken over on autopilot
(like Myla)
but there's also characters who managed to shake themselves out of the infection's influence, sly and bretta
yeah but those two seemed to be in the really early stages and i imagine the knight being present at the time may have also assisted in waking them up and its just not directly shown in game
so i think its as you said before
most of em would just die with a few rare cases
yeh
I was referring to this
They’ve been worked so far below the energy they could live on that they’re literally falling apart
right, i forgot about that
I've probably asked this before but I forgot
(When) is Brimmy getting a resprite to cut down on that... uh... you know?
not even gonna ask how this turned into Hollow Knight
I think Brim is bad enough that she should get a placeholder
If not that, hopefully whenever there’s a big crag overhaul update
Never finished the godhome dlc? I can very, very easily see why, that gets super difficult. Never fought the Radiance? Hardly even comparable to not having finished Godhome in difficulty, especially since finishing Godhome would necessitate fighting them anyways
For some reason Silksong didn't hook me like the original did
hungry knight
Tormented Trobbio on his way to serve the Nightmare Heart and permanently leave Pharloom:
its not because of difficulty. like believe me im literally doing a steel heart run in silksong rn. i just never got around to it lol
Still understandable
steel heart gave me nightmares in hollow knight im never doing it in Silksong 😭 😭
I also never finished Godhome, since beating the first 4 boss rush things with the increase difficulty things sounded more annoying to me than anything
what
all bindings is time consuming but it was pretty fun and satisfying
except pantheon 3.
I HATE ZOTE I HATE ZOTE I HATE ZOTE
not even gonna bother
thats like at least an hour long attempt every time you make it to abs rad
plus it has buffed collector
I love bosses unpredictably and quickly jumping into you!!! Glad Calamity bosses probably won't have anything like that once they're all reworked (if they even have anything like that already)
And it took 4 hours
every single P3 boss has a pattern or is easy to deal with
Post draedon update aureus
just follow the precepts
this is so calamitous
can we replace boss rush with hollow knight pantheons
yeah aureus up until like... 2.0? was dogshit
now its fine
🙂↔️
Fine as in doesn’t do anything, but yes!
A calamity boss that's boring and doesn't do jack? Call that a normal thing
a ** ** boss that’s boring and doesn’t do jack? call that a terraria thing
Deus. Hive mind and perfs( dont @ me) dog pre brainstorm obviously polterghast. Imo like signus and weaver too. Oh My God Leviathan aureus obviously. Normal Mode Crabulon
Terraria's best bosses are better than calamity's best so it doesn't matter that the lows are in the same level
This is my wisdom
and both have a total of two good bosses
Exo Mechs do everything but nothing. Infinite boss but no boss
Neko I’m sorry but Duke and Empress are NOT beating 2.1 Brain
okay i haven't fought 2.1 brain..i did dog but not brain
💔
🥀
2.1 brain is cool
idk empress is pretty cool and fun
Neko I’m sorry again but being better than vanilla Empress is not a very high bar
It’s a noticeable bar, yes
have you looked at tmodloader bosses man
??
But also idk i think empress is good
I didn’t say she’s not
I definitely would say most modded bosses don't get there
vanilla empress is better than most cal bosses besides like, dog, brain, providence in 2.2
She has like attacks which puts her a couple levels above what most people were doing until the quarantine
Idk i think providence is bad
2.2 Provi, huh?
providence in 2.2?
Two minor tweaks made her fight way better
its a minor tweak dont get your hopes too high
it's not huge
Is one of them her not having ice queen ai
unsure if doze wants to say what it is though
The ice queen ai is totally fine for her tbh
why
I mean in theory itd be fine
But it makes the player chase after her in a really awkward way for short ranged weapons I don't rlly think works gameplay wise
Like it obviously doesn't make it impossible but it's awkward and I'd just describe it as straight up not fun
it works for close range weapons once you understand what to do with them and imo it's actually my favorite boss to true melee
Makes fire themed boss.
Gives it Ice Queen AI.
What was he thinking?
thinking? we don’t do that here
it was either that or ice golem

the trick is to not chase her too much and focus on making her turn around to come to you
Yeah i know that
Do you play any other mods
I'm specifically talking about cal only here
Right
But that's just not rlly fun to do it doesn't nicely tie into her moveset at all and it just feels like oh i gotta game the design because it's bad
which yeah it's not a high bar
I don't enjoy brain true melee much, it's a lot of chasing and a lot of downtime
Yeah phase 1 is fine
P2 is what kills it
but 2.2 provi will actually fix ash globs being evil
I sadly have a lot of issues with p2 in general
P1 being awesome makes it hurt more
2.2 provi will also finally discourage rungodding her
Vanishing Point will be dead sorry
Does she accelerate sooner and turn further ahead or something
holy inferno actually matters now
Honestly I think I enjoy Ceaseless Void more than vanilla empress
but I don't think it's a better boss at the moment
Ceaseless derangement syndrome
ceaseless is potential boss
The one boss in calamity that actually forces players to learn it and play it's game and not run away without using physical obstacles
give ceaseless deerclops shadow border
infernal catharsis
give ceaseless void the foxy jumpscare
wat does this mean for the lore
fnaf is canon
withered foxy does scream freedom🤔
It also sucks and is unintuitive and
NO
the strat or the weapon 😥
give ceassless something like Providence border but opaque
NO
It's called dungeon walls
yes
Make bosses not need arena auras but also CV is underground
Sir nautilus proves 99% of people will not modify a given natural arena if they don't need to even if it'd be very easy
Got it, will now be replacing everything with Infernum CV
unless its the jungle temple in which you should remove all pressure plates (because the traps are gonna be an issue)
Because the arena sucks balls that's why
yeah true
Jungle temple worldgen sucks
CV needs something that says "leave this area and he moves"
Shadow border would do that
The arena
Person who fights Golem with traps because he’s too easy and deserves it
The physical arena he's in
It's already kind of a circle
Just make the bound a little bigger
That's all
doesn't solve the problem
Plus the size of the arena would be too large and would break other parts of the moveset that then would require changing
leading to needing a lot of changes
Well isn't that the point
so I could do that
no
It's literally just to tell people "stay in this area"
that's what CV mostly needs
Fix CV to the middle of the archive and just extend the orbiting range of its attacks where necessary and that alone would probably work fine
Here i thought he mostly needed to be like good and completely overhauled
that would be true if it was bad
Well duh, but it could be made less bad for the moment, like Provi
You gotta kill your fabsols as they say. Although I don't think he's anyone's darling
It is though
I will just sit down and wait because complete code rewrite is needed for most bosses anyways
No matter how long it takes
it's funny how CV is the most polarizing boss in calamity
if he was just bad he wouldn't be so polarizing
But it sucks ultra balls
Not true
That is not true whatsoever
Because there's so many bad things that are
Lots of people like lots of bad bosses
Because badness is such a broad thing
Also yeah just subjectivity
It's polarizing because people who get it think he's fine vs people who don't who will hate it forever
of course some people will like it regardless
yeah that's true
CV is a huge "learn this boss" check
People don’t understand it because Calamity Mod never asks people to understand anything until CV
calamity mod why did you create that guy
Yeah but it's also really not intuitive
Gah
Another readAbility mod situation
2.2 provi will already ask people to learn the boss way more than she does right now
Uh Ask fabsol
Also it could be argued (rather easily imo) that what ceaseless asks u to do is not particularly fun gameplay even if you understand it perfectly
that can be argued for any gameplay tbf
you're hyping up 2.2 provi a lot
2.2 provi is not a major change provi is just already a pretty good boss
At least for cal standards
it just fixes her two most glaring flaws

Yeah but it's especially true for ceaseless i thi
- easy to rungod
- ash globs
I'm not sure something as subjective as that can really be argued either way
I can't really comment much on most other calamity bosses because they don't ask u to do anything
I think ceaseless is more fun to people who enjoy microspacing / precision movement and less fun to people who don't
Well terraria is not rlly made for that
because CV asks for a lot of precision movement
So it could be argued most terraria players don't because they're playing terraria which isn't made for that
Precision movement works totally fine in terraria; it's just never asked for
😬
precision movement works fine in most anything
because it can look like a lot of different things
precision movement is definitely harder in terraria than say, undertale
but it still exists fine
What
see I'm grimacing because i would say things but I don't think it's a good idea to delve into this right now so it's like a physical representation of the idea I'm forcefully closing my teeth so as to not speak
I think the best example of asking for precision movement is dog phase 3 walls in death
In cal
Something at his tier gives too much accel for it to be very comfortable but I do like it
Is it elysian wings?
Panic?
Depends on what you use
Elysian are pretty high accel
But it's especially Elysian paired with like, boots
For my dashless dog nohit in death I had to use starboard for decel
Because I needed the accel for the other parts of the fight
I had wings plus boots plus soaring insignia o think
maybe it was aero stone
Come on, spit it out… in DMs or something at least
WHY
I DID NOT HOLD OUT HOPE FOR A REWORK FOR YOU TO DECIDE OTHERWISE!
CURSE YOU, (unspecified dev who suggested removing the spear)!!
genuinely what weapon even is vanishing point
elemental spear
It's not being removed
It's dead because the strategy that makes it broken will no longer function
On provi at least
what other boss is vanishing point good on
God, this spear is so powerful, it hard countered a boss into being removed
Unfortunately calamity has to remove all bosses weapons are too strong against them
Exos
Exos are gone 😔
Reduced to atoms
Crusty Amidias grin image captioned PLEASE
Lmfao
But for it to happen you aren't allowed to play the mod anymore
Can exos have no resistances
It's so funny
You just pretend it's all fine because the boss is worthless anyways
Vanishing point is barely usable on half the bosses
Obliterates provi
And does good on exos except Thanatos
Five microsecond seraphim thanatos kill or whatever
I was balancing dragon rage the other week
Thanatos actually managed to use T Hanos beam
Thanatos takes 1% damage from Seraphim’s lasers.
Yeah that's why I'm saying
wth
Thanatos is so funny
if fabsol had committed to the gimmick it has it wouldn't be so meltable
If only fabsol made good bosses!
Yay! The Vanishing Point didn't
He did make a couple good ones
like make hitting armored segments give shared iframes to all segments and double them
suddenly Thanatos no longer explodes
I think PBG is an awesome fight
🙈
PBG has some flaws but is definitely one of the better ones
Provi is pretty neat from what I have seen
I'd say his strongest work is absolutely providence
Bar is so far down it escaped orbit through the north pole
there is no such thing as nuance it's all ass they all suck delete the mod
I completely and totally disagree
TRUE!
Tbh Provi is like actually solid
Okay I am deleting you from the server sorry dove
shes green for an amazing reason
The harvest was lacking bro
I think it's so funny bountiful harvest was just like "what if I made almost every boss worse"
did any boss improve from BH
was scal changes in BH
But you don’t understand! Pumpkin summon!
then that's the exception
Bountiful coughs and dies and bleeds out
I’ve come to not like new bros very much but every change was a strict and major improvement regardless
New bros movement bothers me
what if they just put the quality in the bag
new bros teleportation bothers me
it makes them so incredibly hard to hit with anything that isn't huge or homing
Constantly snapping all over the place while sitting well out of range is a great way to enforce homing weapons
At least they have phases they sit still and let you get in range
You guys should give me embed perms i can't post boss design gif right now which is kind of like a huge violation of human rights
Only if they're files i have downloaded
Wouldn’t call it a phase, but yes, but they’re firing a stream of pretty large projectiles during that so it’s still very risky
Yeah even bosses like CalClone give you the chance to do True Melee damage if you move in a certain way fairly often, that's sad in comparison
Catastrophe’s slashes especially come out like right next to you
why is lynel evil doze now
Dove is a type of bird
doze
Done
Dove
YOU TAKE THAT BACK, DOVES ARE PURE CREATURES
its funnier to think its evil doze instead of the birb
^
Ykw I might as well make a suggestion about bros movement
I'll star it
i havent had a problem with bros movement
my aim against them specifically is goated
how
idk
how do you hit them with small weapons at low health
That I can remember atm, bros movement is the one boss issue affecting weapon viability that’s bad enough to be worth changing here and now instead of waiting for an overhaul
bros movement singlehandedly makes the pointer goated
(Not counting hunters 🥀)
the pointer should have unlimited range and let me rungodslop every boss
Overhead as in over the head as in bring a hammer over their heads
Another round of lobotomies to the exo mechs
what if I buffed exos what then
nerfing dragon rage on Thanatos is basically an exos buff so
How many cassowaries do you want?
Actually, I guess your bandaid changes to drage will make it way better at hitting hunters secondarily and not completely melt multitarget, so never mind that
you should buff dragon rage to compensate
Make it better at chip damage / worse at sustained damage, make it better on hunters
I did on specifically exo twins
And scal I guess
Drage when it doesn't instantly evaporate every heart and now takes 5 seconds to clear the phase instead 🥀
That’s okay because sepulcher isn’t bad anymore
Now all it does is chase Scal around, firing a big ring of darts from her if it collides
It’s weird, sure, but I wouldn’t know much else to do with it without killing it
oh that
clearly it should delete projectiles again
i thought there was some more recent change i didnt know about
Sepulcher should die
The most recent change is just the different arena sizes
But not die on the technicality of Metastasis
sepulchre should live but be good
i think it's already dead
I think it'd be cool if Sep 1 was hearts and then Sep 2 you kill sepulchre itself
irt's like bones and stuff
Hearts are so dumb and weird
Hearts really should not be all in a row
Needed it
like now it's normalized cuz it's been so long with it
Idea: calamity but good
but it's kinda hilarious really
the mod that already has the worm boss allegations really went and added a worm boss to the final boss which previously didn't have a worm boss on it
The boss fight which already spends way too much time making you not fight the boss, at that
i feel like on an alternate reality sepulcher
would be a fnadom wiki shitpost
it sounds like one
we're adding a worm boss to the calamitas fight
Calamity is not beating the worm mod allegations with tired tail 🙏
Calamitas puppets all of Yharim’s dead clones to create Yharim Worm
it's also why i think otfu's worm boss town pet idea would genuinely be really funny
just embracing the allegations at that point
what if sepulcher took you outside the arena to throw hands personally
worm item, check
worm boss, check
worm enemy, check
worm critter, check if you count burrower
worm weapon, check
worm text, check
worm event?
that's called boss rush
no wait thats t3 acid rain isnt it
also worm critter already existed before burrower and its the bloodworm
I forgot bloodworm exists
why doesnt scal just throw on of sepulchers hearts really fucking far? is she stupid???
Acid rain 3 is just slime rain
new gfb idea
There's a box in the way
Doesn't mean the hearts can
bloodworm
you on't even need to count burrower and you still have a critter
counterpoint
Bloodworm doesn’t have segments
fair nuff
Worms in your blood, check
What does this mean for
Calamity update
they're adding a post moonlord upgrade to the gender change potion
Best cal,update
Gender Ascention potion
new boss transitions obviously
how does it work
asking for a friend
you become both
idk it like changes your gender irl or something
you get half and half
by drinking the potion again you can change which half is which
Does it unlock the enby options
Gender change potion but it had a whole menu for selesting like your gender and pronouns
Gender change potion but it gives you the option between all 20K+ that one mushroom species has


The hwat?
search up schizophyllum commune
thats like almost as much as the amount of pokemons
I think its a bit above that buddy
almost there
close
Its the woke mind fungus
Misclick
I think sep 1 should die and sep 2 should last longer
I think he’d be a great final summon for scal
banned from friend
I think the funniest thing was when I got a friend request on April Fools when I was pretending to be sunny because they thought I was sunny
is anybody here named greg
if I had rename perms you would be
It’s talking to me
what the fuck is that
bear i think
Is that made of wood or is that like ivory
until i looked at it close i thought it was a weird potato or smth
Cal devs add the bear amulet to calamity mod now that speaks to you
I wonder if calamity has any plans to add any actual major content to vanilla events post-moon lord, not just increasing the stats and adding a singular drop like it does to the eclipe and holiday moons, like would it add like new content to at least like the blood moon post moon lord where there is a new unique fishable enemy, or like a new enemy to the goblin army like what happens at the start of hardmode
Goblin God.
Old One's Army Tier 4 where you fight another boss from Dungeon Defenders 2 at the end
You are
You have to fight the final boss of dd2
he's greg for an amazing reason
Hello greg
He's Greg because he can be gregged there
Also I do remember hearing that the plan is to replace the post-Devourer seasonal moon drops with distortion materials I think so I do wonder what will happen to the things crafted from them that are very heavily tied to the seasonal moon materials
Albeit I guess it would be fairly simple if the endothermic energy replacement was still distinctly cold themed but nightmare fuel and I guess darksun fragments would be pretty hard to replace while letting weapons themed around them still fit outside of their current identities
there's literally two dark sun items still post dog anyway as of 2.2
it's not a big deal
Eclipse Mirror and Dark Sun Ring
The only thing Nightmare Fuel is thematically important for is the Fearmonger set
So Fearmonger armor, Endo Hydra, and Corvid Harbinger
I guess yeah it wouldn't be really too big of an issue with how few things are really tied to the themes
and tbh fearmonger doesn't NEED nightmare fuel to exist
although I don't really know what we're gonna do with the fear set
fearmonger doesn't even use nightmare fuel in its recipe even it uses ascended spirit essence so like it already doesn't really use it to justify itself
ASE has nightmare fuel in it though
also it uses souls of fright so like that also lets it have the fear theming
Although tbh Fearmonger really should just use Endothermic Energy + Nightmare Fuel
truing
do Endo Hydra and Corvid use fright..?
according to the wiki neither use souls of fright no
Sigh
just frost hydra staff/raven staff, cosmillite and endothermic energy/nightmare fuel
why is Endo Hydra even in the fearmonger set at this point everything else is a pumpkin moon thing
well
I guess it's the frost moon one
and frost moon has nothing summoner
wait are fearmonger endo hydra and raven meant to be a set of items
okay I never really realised that but yeah I see it
It does feel weird that staff of the frost hydra was given an upgrade thats in the set whereas the other two parts are from the pumpkin moon
Instead of pumpkin + frost moon mix
the concept for the fearmonger whip upgrade of Dark Harvest is fun
literally driving yourself insane
peak?
Also I'll say the raven minion for corvid Harbinger Staff does kind of feel a little silly cos it is kind of just a little raven guy and not really fitting of enducing fear but like idk it could get like a redesign to make it more fear-themed
I want to replace it with a desert tiger upgrade personally
rename raven staff to magpie staff and make corvid harbinger to raven staff
real
surely this will work
There really should be at least be some kind of desert tiger staff upgrade post dog cos like its pseudo counterpart of frost hydra kind of got kind of an upgrade i guess
don't see why both can't exist
simple: there's no reason for both to exist and that'd be more required assets when fearmonger is redesigned
Corvid living is fine, it should just be separated from the fear set
fear set being
- 1 armor
- 1 minion
- 1 whip
- 1 sentry
would make sense; (either make Endo Hydra a sentry or make Desert Tiger upgrade a sentry)
although I don't think Corvid needs to live at all but I'm not against it living on its own
I kind of feel like keeping it with the fear set would kind of work since like if it has 2 minions if they're different general kinds of minions it wouldn't be like too redunant, like a minion that gets stronger with each summon and a more traditional one
it's not really a particularly interesting item
I don't think it'll have a "get stronger with summons" minion tbh
there's too many of those around there
Sirius, Mechworm, Saeos
Now, desert tiger upgrade being a sentry that gets stronger on resummon... I'd be for that
Well it does already with frost hydra kind of thats kind of desert tiger's main gimmick so like it would make sense to haev one
the roles of Hydra and Tiger swap in fear set would be chill
hydra being the minion and tiger being the sentry
I don't really know if a sentry that get stronger with resummons would really be that good in terms of how it'd have to be used
It'd be fine, the last spot one was summoned at would be it's position
So you can still reposition it
I guess yeah but like it would have to either gain more range with more summons otherwise it'd end up hitting way less than other minions
it's a sentry it's expected to not hit constantly
unless you play around it's range
That's like what a sentry is for
I know yeah but most sentries you have a couple and mostly they'll be at least a bit spread out and at least some will probably be hitting it whereas a single sentry would be very infrequently hitting
doesn't matter because in that case
Only one of your 2 sentries is hitting, even if it's more consistent
This would just be like placing both sentries in the same spot
I guess yeah it wouldn't be that bad yeah
I do wonder though if all the biome key weapons got post-dog upgrades like would they each be parts of groups of post-dog gear like this idea for frost hydra and desert tiger being in a "fear set"
all of them already have upgrades
Except tiger
actually maybe the rainbow gun lost it's upgrade
With the cosmic rainbow rework
Heavenfallen Stardisk:
doesn't have a key and isn't post plant so it doesn't count
It's an imposter
You even said biome key
oh right yeah
we should dispose of the impostor
can you make it real cos its dumb as is that it for some reason acts different
you should kill it and make the rogue biome key item maybe a crimson themed knive that maybe has lifesteal or something that'd be really cool 
also with post dog I actually am now wondering if there are really meant to be ant more "sets" of items outside of the fear set and I guess cosmilite set
elemental gauntlet and the elemental quiver right?
- Darksun Set
- Silva Set
- Fear set
- Cosmilite set
- Devourer ser
- Arsenal
- Ultima / Starmada / Starmageddon thing
oh I guess there is also (FOR NOW) the final tier of arsenal stuff (but that is getting retiered iirc)
is silva really a set isn't it just the armour and wings and nothing else
why just darksun
that's armor and wings
Fear set covers both pumpkin and frost moon
dark sun doesn't have an armor
no i know. in theory
it's not a solar upgrade
god slayer armor is part of the Devourer set
ah
darksun is weird cos its just the two accessories pre yharon but then the darksun themed weapons are post-yharon
source: it uses the Dimensional Drive name in it
but it's also recipe wise part of Cosmilite set
hi there don
this, fun fact, is an relic of its time
I do kind of feel like it could be interesting if the silva set got some weapons or something cos like there could be some cool silva-themed weapons, or maybe even being like braelor themed
darksun set has slowly been torn apart
- Dark Sun Ring
- Eclipse Mirror
- Eclipse's Fall
- Saros Possession
- Midnight Sun Beacon
- Event Horizon
event horizon isn't even considered part of the darksun set anymore
Saros is the only darksun item that's what the set is actually supposed to be going forward
legally speaking, the post-yharon stuff isnt anymore
hoenstly when the distortion comes around i hope i lock in and make a really good terraria mod so i can see that be devved
It's not the first set split across tier gaps
elemental
I do need to figure out what to do with the remaining darksun items
Eclipse Mirror, DSR, and Midnight Sun Beacon
isnt midnight sun a xeno staff upgrade
yes
And lunar portal
And doesn't even use dark sun fragments in its recipe anymore
it's special
I guess weird side thought is that if darksun fragments get replaced by an unrelated material you could put solar veils in their recipes I guess if you still want them to have the eclipse theme but idk
We re-retier and rework Event Horizon to be the darksun stratus sphere upgrade
i thought empyrean was post prov tbh
It is now
ah!
It was post dog before like the other dungeon key upgrades
DSR i think could be cool as like uuuuh.
do you know. that armor set. from the jojo stand. from fargos souls.
eridanus
Signus!
more stratus stuff would be fire
i could scrap a rough text description. my idea is kinda #cool
Cosmic Rainbow and Barragun in the corner
those should stay in the corner
Nah clearly the post-dog upgrade to the rainbow gun is clearly prismatic breaker it has it in its recipe so it must be
So true
Hear me out
All the dungeon key items should stop upgrading into things
And then all upgrade into one ultimate dungeon key item together
That scales with best class
nah we actually make it so that the dungeon keys themselves get the upgrades
how much damage does a crit strike do, normally
Cosmilite Key
like its multiplier
got it
+15% crit dmg = +7.5% total dmg to the crit
also side thought why does SDFMG specifically use enothermic energy like why does this duke fishron gun use the cold frost moon item

also its kind of odd that the duke fishron gun is like "stronger" than the kind of old duke gun with fetid emesis
the racist one
30 year old fit guy or 120 year old geezer
the geezer
both are racist in this scenario
the old one survived in a sea of like acid though so via powerscaling the old one wins
the geezer has predictive dashing so he mogs the one that doesn't
The answer is neither, they both get hit by a truck and wake up in a new land
Wait what if the old one had some kind of old one's army
This is actually the plot of "Me and My Grandpa Got Reincarnated As A Fish Dragon And Set Out To Find Our Souls"
i can't believe they got isekaid into calamity
Calamisekaity
"I Woke Up Named Jestream Sam And Now I Must Conquer This Cruel World"
"I Have No Damage Types And I Must Stat Boost"
"Me and high school crush got reincarnated as calamity Worm Boss's body segments"
That Time I Got Reincarnated As A Gamma Slime During Acid Rain Tier Three
So I'm a Dark Energy, So What?
the whole plot is the main character was poisoned and reincarnated into one of CV's dark energies
Backstabbed in a Backwater Dungeon: My Trusted Companions Tried to Kill Me,
but Thanks to the Gift of an Unlimited Gacha I Got LVL 9999 Friends and Am
Out for Revenge on My Former Party Members and the World
wait oops sorry that was a real one
that's such a long name
it's so funny
my party tried to kill me
Reincarnated as the Terraria Guide
Hey has anyone brought up how the resprite for sea minnow (item) was kept by accident even though the actual critter wasnt changed
lol
Backstabbed by a Five Platinum Companion Cube: My Trusted Pet Tried To Kill Me, but Thanks to the Gift of Yharim I lived at 1 HP and Am Out Mining Auric Ore for my Party Members and the World
Calamitas 1/2
literally just ranma 1/2 with magic and war
the critter and the bug net sprite are just 2 entirely diff things
I did see it and it was very strange
mustve been smth like the bestiary where it was just forgotten to be removed from the branch before publishing
I think I remember that like the fish bowl might of also had the wrong sprite or something but I don't fully remember
hmm now I wanna watch more anime thanks to this isekai talk
isn't that literally what happened with the sunken sea lab
no
watch re zero
do they have it on disney+
weren't all the labs remade in the update intentionally
really good show its like what if we made a isekai but good
insane idea i know right
yeah
but the lab spawns too low (as if the sunken sea reached to hell)
I got isekaid as a non-canon joke character
doze talking about the anime talk making him want to watch more anime has made me want to watch anime too now
ohhh that actually makes sense why that happened I thought that was like an actual bug in its generation code not like an actual leftover
gotta continue watching re zero so i can catch up to s4w ..
funny how im watching dbs rn
and we're talking about anime
You're telling me that BiaBD: MTCTtKM, bTttGoaUGIGL9999FaAOfRoMFPMatW isn't good?
watch madoka magica and evangelion and chainsaw man and kill la kill and re zero and uhh what other shows do i really like let me think
dont awtch one piece
read the manga instead
one piece is really good but dont watch it
watch dungeon meshi
and bocchi the rock
i would watch those
but evangelion isn't on anything i use afaik
It's been hard to find a show I wanna watch atm this season's airing shows are killing my tastes
I Became Friends With The Second Prettiest Girl In My Class is genuinely so good it's making watching any other romance anime dull
kill la kill is funny
its the only show where the fanservice is genuinely the plot
and in like an actually good way
chainsaw man is chainsaw man i dont think i need to explain
senketsu the goat
is there such way to provide a damage boost that applies after all other damage boosts
Watch Inferno Cop
and awesome music
Yes
awesome
When is Calamity making its own anime which is like a slice of life anime for like calamitas or soemthing
Ryo is so me
calamity anime would just be aura farming action anime
like idk
unironically calamity anime would be like one piece
JJK or Demon Slayer or Solo Leveling idk
(I've never seen solo leveling I have no idea if that's true)
battle shonen with alot of action on the surface but with actual complex plotlines that act as critiques of elements of modern society and whatnot
one piece going in "haha funny pirates"
one piece going out the industrial revolution and its c
calamity anime would be SAO let's be real
I've been watching jjk and it's actually got alot more Plot than you'd think from looking outside
it's not like solo levelling which is just
aurafarming
hype moments and aura
I've been slowly watching JJK but it definitely seems over hyped so far
ok that's too far
you can't say that
yharim would be the one piece
we'll see him being mentioned over and over again but never see him ever
Would be SAO
ok well i was considering from the standpoint of adapting the story of calamity into a anime if we're taking account the overall quality of the mod we'd get like
yeah itd be like sao
or
the other one
solo leveling
i forgot the name in like less than 10 seconds
it's not bad but it's not really the best thing ever idt
like
Brainstorm itself leans towards solo leveling
its good, but its not one of my favorites so far
i think its at its best when its less hype moments and aura and more actual narrative tbh
I've gotten through episode like 13
so far my favorite part of it has been the uhhh || arc in the past with gojo and geto and stuf || (early season 2 spoilers. also that's where i'm at right now)
so far id give it a like
6.5 - 7/10
its good but i does feel overhyped yeah
I need more story dense stuff than it I think
It has story for sure
but it hasn't really had anything that's hooked me into the story
it still feels like it's just stuff happening
I think part of that issue is there feels like no real character development so far and I'm 12 episodes in
is the new update with calamity and terraria combined now?
if you mean Terraria 1.4.5 no Calamity cannot be played in that no and won't be for quite a while
no mods for 1.4.5 can be made for a while
ight
I wonder what the specific like armour plans are for Calamity because I remember that it is planned to be that less armours will have a helmet for each class and moreso more armour variety between classes is planed but like I can't exactly remember the plans
what is Shrimp armor
imagine this is real
This is real
imagine headless Rogue
Sunken Sea armor, the original plan was you would get it from trading with Scavengers iirc
It had like
oh neat
I cant remember if it was an enemy proximity bonus or if it was a stance change type bonus
those sprites n all are real?
Yes
cuz if it is then holy shit
Of course subject to change etc etc
Wait hold on why are they swapping melee godslayer and summoner silva that feels weird to me cos like isn't silva kind of like a very summoner-kind of character with her being support to her "minions"
Its being redesigned
The melee is because Braelor
Since he wears a unique Silva armor
I know yeah I mean like braelor cos braelor kind of makes sense but like summoner makes sense for silva
silva melee boutta go crazy
Nature magic. It's not like you're getting a boon from Silva, it's just armor made from her essence
So like it's not like you can exert her will
It just feels like it would make more sense with her being the goddess of life to have the class who has armour made from fragments from the pillar formed from the dragon of life
Eh, themes and such
also will summoner like just not get any new armours between after providence to pre-dog like the other classes all get with bloodflare, polter and dragon hunter
wdym
It's not that it necessarily isn't there just isn't any confirmed
Since summoner is currently being
Uber rebalanced
summoner deserves nothing
Also Omega Blue is Summoner / Classless
using omega blue for summoner is funny
I moreso meant like more traditional armour set that isn't like very gimicky like omega blue but like it just feels a bit odd
It's bound to get one
Probably yeah
Also I do woner like if the Slime God - Cal clone swap does end up happening how the plans for armours would change since statigel would likely have to be moved to post plantera and I guess brimflame to prehardmode
Prob redesigns
I'm sure the armor won't be getting major changes until their respective bosses do
probably yeah that'll likely how it'll be done
I am also a little confused how some of the different class variants of aerospec an auric have different chest piece designs, like do they have different chest pieces or what
I think it was said somewhere that aerospec will have 2 chest pieces
It could be cool if like aerospec is actually kind of 2 seperate armour sets which share their materials if like they have different head and chest pieces and also leg pieces since the image up here only has the ranger one have visible leg armour
Godslayer is Summoner because whips look like worms.
Then will calamity have a calamity mode
It will be part of Calamity Mod HD.
Experience an all new story as Calamitas using her trusty surfboard.
what do you mean summoners are eating even better now
cue the image of the dad eating a lot of food

It just feels very weird for summoner, the most silva-adjacent class and the one tied to the actual dragon of life is for some reason no longer going to have silva armour
Like melee getting silva makes sense with braelor but like wouldn’t swapping mage and melee make more sense
Also like summoner even is kind of tied to statis through statis’ blessing and statis’ curse who is also tied to silva so like it feels like it really should remain silva summoner
Brainstorm update drops tomorrow
Rainworm update tomorrow
Bookworm update tomorrow
ringworm update
Wormstorm
Rainworld drops tomorrow
Brainworm tomorrow
Counterpoint: It is heavily implied that Distortion beings work like a hive mind according to Draedon.
Yeah but like dog isn’t at all like the ruler of the hive mind
So like the dog-themed armour doesn’t really fall into that
Its called god slayer armour It definitely is dog themed at least partially
But like silva still makes so much sense to be summoner armour and like changing that is weird
Putting aside that the name was made when 'God Slayer Knights' were a thing in the plot, God Slayer Armour is made from the Cosmilite from the Distortion, which while it's the same kind DoG uses is not unique to him.
Silva Armour is going to be themed on Braelor, Silva's champion who fought with melee weapons and was physically stronger than even Yharim, it makes sense for that to be a Melee armour given that it's the class themed around physical strength (even if the weapons don't always line up with that idea).
I know melee silva makes sense but like why not swap melee godslayer with magic silva
What do you mean by that?
Couldn’t silva keep a summoner armour and gain melee and have magic move to godslayer armour
Instead of melee - summoner swap have melee - magic swap so silva keeps summoner
Yeah, but Silva herself was also a mage and invented a new kind of magic.
Sorry This boss is gone now right?
Yeah but like silva is like the most summoner character in the mod like she is all about buffing her two teamates basically making her like one of the most summoner-adjacent characters in the mod
I'd argue that DoG himself is kind of a summon.
Also since stardust fragments are from the life dragon’s soul wouldn’t the armour for the life godess being summoner also make sense
"silva is the most summoner character in the mod" when calamitas and draedon exist is crazy
Okay fair point but like she is also very summoner themed
Also like calamitas when it comes to gear has a lot more mage-oriented gear
being a mage is just summoning projectiles
Also silvas like main thing is seemingly buffing others so like I feel like shes almost solely summoner-themed
Like isn’t she the reason braelor and statis are like really strong
clearly the solution is just to readd the missing sets to god slayer's and silva's armors so the classes aren't arbitrarily split like this 
Nah the real solution is to give each class a whole different armour each at that tier
i'd take that too
I did thought at some point someone had said that like silva was very often seen with both statis and braelor so I thought like she had buffed both of them
silvas main thing is being dead
Quite ironic for the life goddess
she’s very good at impressions
Silva is like the deadest thing to die
killing skeletron wakes her up a little because lore
But like I do definitely feel like the life dragon’s soul’s fragments being summoner feels like it already is enough reason for the life goddess’ themed armour to also have a summoner helmet
no not really
she's so not quite dead that she's been tossed in the abyss multiple times because it's the closest anyone can get to actually killing her and she's still working on getting out
if she was dead there would be no life of any kind left on the planet because she literally cannot die as long as there exists life
Silva is basically death blight confirmed?
as I said she’s very good at impressions
Well is it that if theres nature on the planet cos she is the nature elemental which like might be different
this is true except the buffing statis part
