Items Epic Equipment

[Ghostly!]

I love Terraria (otherwise i wouldn't be playing it ) , what i love even more are the weapons.

I really like the sprites, you did a really great job! The only problems I can see is that the Omni claw will cause multiple debuffs but enemies can only have one debuff at once. Also the solar ring seems a bit weak and most enemies hardmode onward are immune to On Fire! Also none of them really have recipies or descriptions of how they would be obtained. This thread does need some work but I still really like it so far!

These are all really great, especially the accessories. I have just one problem with the weapons, which is that they're all melee. If these got added, there would be some serious class imbalance at hallow and Moon Lord tiers.
P.S. Amazing spritework, srsly.

 

[anonlineuser]

Don't worry at the moment i'am thinking of fun ranged and magic type weapons

Cool! I've got some ideas of my own if you need some help.

I think you should change the Zodiac thing to something else, Melee already has too many weapons.

Hello Vladimier,
This is currently the first post I have seen since joining the community. The ideas you have are truly astounding and I think all of them should be added but the one thing the developers might do if they do add them is make them less OP. Aside from that the question I have for you is what did you use to create the pixel art? Because I have a lot of ideas as well.

 

[Pro_Skidzo]

Thank you for your astounding comment, I see that the weapons are not quite balanced as i thought . As far as the pixel art goes i use the default paint program on the mac/pc .

Thanks Vlad

Holy hell those sprites are amazing.
I really love the Granite Rune and Zodiac, and all of them are really original ideas.

The only thing I can say is that hoping a crimson counterpart of it.

Otherwise, nice work!
