I mean, there's an absurd amount of yoyos compared to the other three melee weapon types (other than swords).
Most of them fit into progression points that already have been filled.
Like take the Terrarian, or the Malaise, or the Artery, or the Valor. If these four didn't exist, progression would not be harmed at all; there's already weapons for those points.

Well, they could become a separate class considering the number and variety of them

Yes they could, but then people afraid of change will say that its a dumb idea. Like, we can take boomerangs and yoyos and make them throwing but then people will cry and scream "mY MeLeE bUiLdS" despite it making sense.

Also, flails might also fall into that kind of class and it feels like the flail subtype needs some love

No, flails don't count. They don't leave your hand when used. They're basically maces on a string.

Boomerangs fly.
Yoyos are only attached by a small ring on your finger.

But wouldn't the flail still require you to throw it?

I love flails. The Sunfury is my go-to weapon as soon as I defeat Skeletron.

No, flails require you to swing like you're using a sword, but only with much more force.

Also, maybe throwing would be a viable class if it allowed for a glove based system

They're gloves already in the game. There's the Ale Tosser and the Bone Glove. If we expand on them, and convert the two aforementioned weapon types and expand on those too, we'd have a complete throwing class.

And also armor sets. Maybe the final one can allow for multithrowing or something

They would also have to add hardmode throwing weapons in the first place

Alright, you've got me interested. I'm gonna develop this into a full suggestion. And, who knows? Someday I might mod it into the game. Anyone want to help out?

Sorry, but I don't know how to make mods. Good luck though!

Sadly, I can't since I have zero programming skill whatsoever

No, I'm not talking about modding, I mean about making the suggestion

Oh, sure, I guess

What were your ideas?

Yeah, I'm fine with that

Cool! So, what exactly can you help with? Sprites? Ideas? Balancing?

Probably ideas for me
