Also, shouldn't this thread be under Suggestions/NPCs and Enemies?
bring summon friends if you find petrify that annoying.
So you're basically saying to ignore part of the game's content just because the enemy is unbalanced and requires SOME change to how they operate. Thats a really great argument there.Git gud, or just stay away from marble biomes in general.
Ermm... Summons fight for you while you are paralyzed. Right?So you're basically saying to ignore part of the game's content just because the enemy is unbalanced and requires SOME change to how they operate. Thats a really great argument there.
Also they hit through walls and they can freeze you from OFF SCREEN. Summons and yoyos won't help whatsoever mate.
I'm honestly fine with medusa's attacks and everything but would like to suggest a single change to them: Make it so they cannot hit you when you're behind a wall. aka they only stone you when in direct line of sight. The range is fine and the debuff duration is perfect in my book, but the "off screen freeze" and "hit behind walls" is absolute bull.
Not through walls-Ermm... Summons fight for you while you are paralyzed. Right?
How would a medusa reach you from the other side of the wall then? Even if she did get close, you can have your summons do the work.Not through walls-
Did you even READ the first page of posts?
She doesn't have to. Her stone vision can and will, leaving you totally susceptible to other monsters. This from offscreen.How would a medusa reach you from the other side of the wall then? Even if she did get close, you can have your summons do the work.
I'm aware this from offscreen, I've had it happen to me multiple times, your summons can deal with the extraneous monsters. Also, you can somehow use potions while petrified.She doesn't have to. Her stone vision can and will, leaving you totally susceptible to other monsters. This from offscreen.
Most of the poor soldiers and heroes sent after medusa didn't get a chance to even see her either. I'm not sure if I am comfortable with the whole "IT MUST BE NERFED" sentiment here though.
"It's OK if an enemy is stupid OP with very few effective counters because muh lore"
Going from full health to dead instantly because of a monster that spawned offscreen, without even any sort of projectile or means of avoiding it, is unacceptable. If you have any arguments as to otherwise, I'm all ears, because I cannot think of any.

Why even let this game exist, then? Just create a world, and instead of playing the game, you just get a message telling you that Cthulhu wiped the place from the time-space continuum a zillion gorillion years ago. Or, you summon the Eye of Cthulhu, and then the screen just goes crazy and you die instantly, because that's how it works in the Lovecraft novels.

Turtles try to fly in your face but are stopped dead in their tracks with even one small hit.If we want to get down scales to scales, I think the turtles are more OP than medusa.
