Biomes & Nature [Granite Mini-biome Expansion] New enemies, armor, and more!

[lilTuck]

I think the Granite Biome is pretty bland on it's own; it needs new enemies, weapons, and armor, so feel free to leave suggestions below. The Spider Nest mini-biome had armor and weapons; so why can't Granite have some love? Here are my propositions to what should be added!
​

Spoiler: Armor

Granite Cloak



80, 55 (/)

+3 Defense
+3% Increased damage
+2% Increased movement speed

Granite Breastplate



120, 75 (/)

+6 Defense
+4% damage
+3% increased movement speed

Granite Leggings



90, 35 (/)

+5 Defense
+4% damage
+3% increased movement speed

Set Bonus

+4% increased damage
+7% increased movement speed
+2 defense

Spoiler: Weapons

Granite Spear

"Stab your enemies with (pretty) granite."



18 Melee Damage

20, 30 (/)

Granite Shardshot

"Launches a deadly shard at your enemies."



42 Magic Damage
Uses 25 Mana

1 , 25, 20, 200 ()

Spoiler: Enemies

Granite Bat



"A small bat that flies within the depths of the Granite Biome."

65 Health
7 Defense
(1-2) 100%
(2-5) 100%

Granite Slime



"A Slime that lurks inside caves of granite."

85 Health
12 Defense
(1-2) 100%
(4-6) 100%

Spoiler: Update Log

8/19/2015 - I have added a new sprite for the Granite Cloak. The Granite armor set is now weaker, but not underpowered.

8/19/2015 (2) - The Granite slime has been added. The Granite set is now all class, focusing more on movement speed and damage; a great combination for starter players.

8/19/2015 (3) - Added the Granite Spear and the Granite Shardshot.

I really like that armor, good work.

If you want you could think about some hardmode stuff too.

 

[Shaedric]

Lower the defense on the armor. It is Hellstone tiered defense.

Done. It now has 15 defense; however, I'm planning to add a Granite Helmet, Granite Mask, and Granite Crown for the other 3 classes.

Why don't your granite enemies drop granite blocks?

Oops, totally forgot about other granite enemies doing that. Fixed, thanks for noticing.

 

[Matador]

Woah. Cool. Support.

EDIT: Maybe Granite Trees? Or maybe a Granite structure?

 

[lilTuck]

Woah. Cool. Support.

What if the granite slime dropped a mini granite boulder that would fall and then roll into the direction of the player?

I might add that as an enemy on it's own. Maybe a Boulder Mimic that rolls into the player.

or you could have the current granite golem disguise as a rock/boulder.

Maybe; I'll think about it. Thanks for the feedback.

 

[DarthEnderX]

Like I said here, I want to see the Granite used as the basis for creating the Mountain biome people have been requesting.

Neat idea. I think it would be neat to have mountains like that.

The defense and craft requirements are too high.

 

[colDelay]

Then the Granite biome should also be more common, since I'm only finding marble. And speaking of marble, that should get some stuff probably.

Nerfed.

 

[FireChaos]

Nerfed.

As I see it it's like an almost improved Demonite/Crimtane version. Minus 2-3 defense overall and you'll be fine, even keeping the bonuses.

Suprise, @lilTuck!
