Quick, post some lesser known mods to prevent the thread from going full ded again

what server do you guys mostly play on and what mods do i need to install to play with?

>>183654665
Reposting this from the last thread.

Haven't tried it yet but it seems great.

>Disappointed but not surprised melee is still nonviable
>All the bosses I've fought so far have been made 300% more obnoxious
>Not even in hard mode and I'm already getting sick of playing
Did Redgit just spend all this time doing nothing but nerfing everything pro-player, buffing mobs and making a bunch of cosmetic furniture? Because that's all it looks like.

>>183656574
>melee
You mean firing swordbeams and using yoyos?

>>183657772
No I meant actual melee like swords. But the yoyo felt pretty weak too. Had the controllability of the yinyang flail, but no size, no knock back, auto retract, and pretty short range even with the string accessory.

>>183658165
They probably realized that it's nearly impossible to stay at close-range with most bosses, so that's why they added all those "melee" weapons. I don't think they even can do anything about since this is an issue with the game itself and how enemies deal damage, so staying at a range will always be superior. And expert mode didn't help at all either.

>>183659527
I think that's my problem with Terraria. You end just default to ranged weapons/spells to kill bosses. Same shit over and over.

>>183659527
Now that I think about it, a simple shield feature would make a world of difference. Block an enemy's (boring contact) damage, they get stunned, then hit them with weapon. Implementing attack animations and such might be difficult, but adding blocking or instant dodging would be a step in the right direction.

>>183659527
It also feels like they rebalanced all the bosses for people that have map wide multilayer platform arena's with heart spawners. King Slime's teleporting is really fucking annoying and I couldn't even hit EoC late into it's second phase because it was spending all of its time underground.

>Cobalt shield
>new button lets you "block" then counter

>>183661594
>equip shield in accessory slot
>right click with melee weapon to block, which reduces taken damage depending on the quality of the shield
>if done with the correct timing, you block all damage and stun the enemy (making them fall to the ground if they're flying)
>parry window increases depending on the shield's quality and type as well
There, I fucking fixed it. Maybe it would be a good idea to bring this up with Redigit, not that I think they still care at this point.

>>183657772
>melee is so shitty, they had to make it ranged

>>183662035
Nice. Ideas for the new game.

Hey guys, videofag here.
It's been nearly a year and a half since the last time I've been here, but I felt like I owed you some requests. So, if the Anon that requested killing all the bosses without jumping is still around, here you go:

Welp, thats that world dead. Luckily it should be trivial to kill the WoF on a new world and get back to where I was. Shame about the builds tho

>>183667595
That's why I always close my games

>>183664239
>Yrimir comes back after a year and a half
>Videofag also comes back soon after with a very similar idea
Coincidence? I think not.

Question:
Does the massive V of hallow and crimuption always spawn in the exact center of the map?

Could I save myself completely by building past the dungeon?

>>183668521
Doesn't it spawn originating from the point where you first defeated the wall of flesh?

>>183668556
That would be stupid. Everyone would wait until he was right at the edge of the world to finish him so only one side speads into the world

>>183656284

>hook the EoC
>flying eye rodeo
Oh fuck this is fun

>>183666775
I doubt my playthroughs look any different from those of other experienced players.

>>183668239
Yrimir is back too? Shit, that's great, he's the only Terraria player that I used to watch.

Am I the only one who enjoys fishing?

>>183670441
Yes. Fishing is fucking shit, and the Angler is even worse.

Holy shit the cost to reforge bard weapons is ridiculous.

>>183670682
Speaking of which...
What would be the best modifier for Bard weapons?

If I build my base in the ocean biome, where will a goblin invasion happen?

>jungle grass seeds are rare as fuck
Someone here doesn't know about flower boot farming.

>>183669382
Yeah, I've decided. This is objectively fun.
Due to all the damage you'll be taking though, melee is probably the class that pairs better with it.

Can you stack artificial biomes vertically? I want to try putting all my mob farming into a tower with a biome per level, but I'm wary that it will just set itself to whatever's on top or something.

i run like 15 mods without any real problems. mostly QoL stuff like maxstack, autotrash, recipe browser, boss checklist, imksushi, what mod is this from, etc

i wouldn't really recommend thorium + calamity. it runs fine, but the calamity stuff heavily outclasses everything in thorium/vanilla, making it pointless to use anything not from calamity. not a compatibility issue though, simply an issue of item scaling.

>>183733386
I mean mods that add content that can happily be used alongside items from thorium without being invalid or too strong

>>183733386
Agreed. Hell, I have a character that has like 1400 HP and 650 mana right now and has a Akalis level sword with around 1.8K damage per hit with buffs

Why isn't there a desert biome key yet? If there was, what would you want? Maybe even an accessory or mount to not upset the melee-ranged-spell-summon dynamic? Maybe a crafting station used to make a thrown weapon?
Also, why isn't there more love for thrown weapons? Most "thrown" weapons are just spells or melee weapons with range, like the scourge or the magic dagger.

>>183735771
Because throwing is an even more halfbaked idea than summoning. It was honestly fine just being a subset of ranged.

>>183734504
sure, anything not calamity

>>183735771
maybe a worm mount?
