No
but you're all rehashing your point without trying to consider any benefits at all too one MEASLY little armor set that sets a restriction and changes things up.
Tell the TC to stop the same, why don't you?No
Normally i'd agree the tc can chill too, but seriously the idea of style specific ore doesn't excite you? Imagine what could come from this, spellcaster ore, gunner ore, ranger ore, that sounds sweet no?
Funnily enough, no. There are only so many places they can generate post-golem after all.
out of you. Just pointing that out to avoid pointless replies.
No support. I like my Terraria without restrictive gear, and melee works well until Frost and Pmpkin Moon - both of which are optional content.
Yes I've read all the back and forth on previous pages. No, I don't care how other games are "fun" because they restrict the
The problem from that is that, once it´s armor set is made, it becomes vendor trash. It isn´t helped by the fact that none of the materials used to make endgame armors, except for Beetle Husks, has no other uses. Ectoplasm, for example, is also used for tools and to summon two events, while Shroomite is used for a VERY fast digging tool and the Hoverboard.
Correction, Beatle husks can get you beetle wings... but meh
Before HM was introduced, flails already existed. In fact, they were usually better than swords of the same tier both due to their mechanics and their longer range. And they didn´t even truly dominate the game, as the Phoenix Blaster, which is currently overpowered, was EVEN MORE powerful back then. In fact, the only reason it was anywhere near practical was because there were few ranged enemies back then.i actually have the same problem with summoner gear, its too weak to survive the moon events, and by your logic, the entire game is optional. the only 'restrictions' in terraria is that it forces you to either use vampire knives and other ranged melee weapons, or not be a melee character. my point is, simple melee weapons like the sword get vastly overlooked, but some of us like to use it. also, i added the ranged and magic debuff as a tradeoff for the extra defense, which is neccesary for actual melee,as enemies deal tons of damage close up, i could remove it, but then people would call it OP. and since some people already say it's OP, and others say its too limited, that seems to suggest that its well balanced
"melee works well before pumpkin/frostmoon"
on normal mobs, yes. bosses, no. try killing plantera with a keybrand. youll get stomped and chomped. this armor gives you an OPTIONAL new playstyle, one that dominated the game before hardmode was introduced.
But your damage isn´t limited, and Beetle Armor can provide a lot of dafence.
and thanks!
