This is the worst idea in the story of balance.
Firstly, a nerf to the best and coolest Summoner weapon in the game.
Second, it will make Expert Drop Normal when people are complaining about it anyway, which will end up breaking the Solar Insignia.
Third, making regular wings an expert drop when soon there are better wings and Moon Lord drops the best wings in the game as an expert drop.
A hopeless idea and may it never end up in the game.
Basically what MasterworkStone said. Also, I never suggested to nerf Terraprisma (and honestly I missed that in the initial suggestion- I personally think Terraprisma does
not need a nerf, and making it a regular drop is a straight
buff because it makes it obtainable normally).
"The coolest summoner weapon in the game" is a joke weapon because of how it's implemented, it's up there with the Star Cannon and Super Star Shooter, no one uses them because their ammo is completely impractical, and no one uses the Terraprisim unless they're going for some kind of challenge run because the effort required to obtain it is obscene.
This, but also the fact that EoL's current daytime drop is
useless to anyone who is not using summoner weapons. Making Soaring Insignia her daytime drop not only makes Insignia an actual challenge to obtain, but it would be
worth that challenge. I don't care
how powerful you make Terraprisma, it is
not a worthwhile reward for defeating daytime Empress.
People complain about it because it's easy to obtain, if you give it the obscene challenge of killing EoL during the day, then people would complain less because it'll become a rarity to see.
Yeah! And also see what I stated above; moving Soaring Insignia to a daytime drop gives
all classes a reason to fight daytime EoL. It also gives an indirect nerf to Soaring Insignia
without reducing its usefulness. Honestly, it's probably the best way to nerf the accessory imo.
The only reason it's suggested is because Leinfors can't do much on is own outside of small coding, such as what is suggested. There is no better item to replace her expert drop with that wouldn't require adding an entirely new item to the game.
Exactly. If it was up to me, I would add a brand new Expert item. But we can't do that, and since the
only other alternatives are weapons (which would break consistency with every other expert drop
and be useless to any player who isn't using that particular class) or
vanity items (which I think you can see why those are a terrible choice for the expert drop), there isn't anything
better to fit the role of an expert drop than Empress' Wings. If the wings
really aren't good enough to be an Expert drop, then just buff them slightly or something. But I don't think that's necessary here.
