When I saw they updated summons to be able to direct attacks I was excited. Summoner was my favorite class but it needed a little extra something. Minion Direction has always been a thing I though the summoner should have in some form or another.
Whether the update is simply unimpressive on it's own merits, or I measured it too harshly against my own idea, I couldn't say which. But I was disappointed.
At LEAST make the command a right-click function that doesn't make the annoying summoning sound! Perhaps a short, dinging sound, if any.
Or rather, actually, it would feel more natural to have the summoning on right-click and then left-click for command, since you'll only use the summoning to call them up.
In other news, I was also disappointed with the Blizzard not getting it's own music the way Sandstorms do. I'm hoping that's just something you guys are having trouble putting a new tune to?
I think it does track your gaming progression with bosses. Did you beat plantera? Golem? Cultist? Pillars? Moon-lord?How do i access the harder waves? It only goes to wave 5. Do i need to kill certain bosses?
Nice.Summoners can now direct their minions to attack a specific target of their choosing. To do this, the summoner must Right Click over an enemy while holding a minion summoning staff. Minions with line of sight on that enemy will target it immediately. However, if the minions do not have line of sight, they will continue to attack targets at random.
I too am curious about this subject. So far, only tried it once, fought thousands of the same enemy and eventually logged due to time issues with the event unresolved. Post-Golem world here, not seen any rewards yet (albeit after leaving event unfinished; got the impression I was doing something wrong and was stuck in a loop), will be eagerly watching this thread and the wiki for more info on how this works. Pretty fun thoughHow do i access the harder waves? It only goes to wave 5. Do i need to kill certain bosses?
You didn't get a wave progression bar? Was your crystal at the same height the portals opened?I too am curious about this subject.

One of the portals opened a few blocks higher than the crystal/other portal. Wasn't a prepared area, just a flat bit of land near my house where I fight off goblins/solar eclipses etc. Used to be a tree farm but there are too many gravestones in the way now...You didn't get a wave progression bar?

I wish i had an infinite wave hahaha
I think perhaps you misunderstood what I was complaining about. lolThat's a bit harsh. Did you try this patch as a fresh newcomer or with your maxed end-game geared character?
There a 8 new armors( 2 tiers ) and they do (stats wise) compare a lot to near as strong as end-game gear is. As it is, you can finally combine melee, ranged and caster with minions. Insanely great imho.
You may have got yourself a multiplayer glitch. Did you try again on a fresh restart?One of the portals opened a few blocks higher than the crystal/other portal.

Did see a progression bar for the first few seconds, went away though. Was in multiplayer if that makes a difference (hosting); other player died lots...
Do I end it by letting them smash the crystal? Anything bad happen?
I will tomorrow. Its late....You may have got yourself a multiplayer glitch. Did you try again on a fresh restart?
I don't know about the minimum size but i use a built flat surface of at least 200 blocks total left to right with the crystal right in the middle of it.I started looking for places to start up the event. It's hard to find a flat area large enough for this, as I was often rejected. Before I start building a sky island or digging out a tunnel, what is the minimum size this needs to be in order for it to work?
About 2 screens-ish, mebbe 3 for safety, possibly goes wrong if a bit too smallI started looking for places to start up the event.

This is awkward because i've got through the whole event without an invisible monster a t all. Do you have a flat surface?ok i get to wave 5 or 6 wasnt paying attention and die from wyverns. ok ok i can stategize against them. BUT THE INVISABLE MONSTERS THAT DONT SHOW UP TILL THEY HIT YOU OR YOUR CRYSTAL AND JUST WALK PAST ALL YOUR DEFENCES!.................thats just bull.
I found him in my pre hardmode world. We are post Skeletron and I happened to find him while going down. I didn't even know what he was at first, but I when over to have a look. I don't know what the requirements for him to appear, but it's not hardmode I can tell you that.Can he be found pre-hardmode?
The requirement is the brain of cthulu or eater of worlds being beaten.I found him in my pre hardmode world. We are post Skeletron and I happened to find him while going down.
