PC Portfolio with suggestions for Journey's End

[The Star Breaker]

Welcome to my suggestions portfolio!

I wanted to add some finishing touches to the game.
I'm striving to make "vanilla style" changes to the game, things that feel right in place in the game. But I also include some modded-style items that I just find fun.
Even though Journey's End is the final content update for the game, I enjoy coming up with ideas and will continue updating this portfolio from time to time.

Does not pierce. Sticks to enemies inflicting a DoT effect dealing 12 damage for each card (Like Bone Javelins and Magic Cards). After sticking for 5 seconds the card explodes, dealing AoE damage and attaching a DoT dealing card to near enemies.​

Crafted with the Magic Cards, Magic Dagger and 10 Ectoplasm.​

Soul Drain

Works similarly to the Life Drain but works only at close range (up to 20 blocks away). When it kills an enemy they drop a life recovery heart and a mana star.​

Crafted with Life Drain, 5 Souls of Fright and 5 Ectoplasm.​

Looks like a glove with a red palm.​

Lesser Force Wave

Used to push enemies away from you in a straight line, 5 block range​

Can be charged by holding the click, increases knockback.​

Tooltip: "Hatsu"​

Dropped by Dark Mage from the Old One's Army, or sold by the Witch Doctor for 10 gold after defeating a Dark Mage.​

Force Wave

Deals damage to all enemies near you, 8 block range.​

Can be charged by holding the click, increases knockback and damage.​

Tooltip: Insert Dark Souls reference. I suggest "Try finger, but whole!"​

Sold by Wizard after Queen Slime is defeated for 30 gold.​

​

Psychic Wave

Best knockback dealing magic weapon in the game.​

​

Defiling Domino

HIgh mana cost​

Releases a black spiral, if it kills an enemy, another spiral/another part of the spiral is released for free - for no mana.​

Dropped by Demons in HM - 2%​

Magical Finger Guns

Rapidly shoot lasers from the tips of your fingers! Upgrade to the Laser Rifle.​

Tooltip: "Bang"​

Moon Sword

Hold the sword to charge the attack.​

Consumes mana upon unleashing the attack.​

​

Psychic Energy Balls

Shoot purple energy balls, they home in on enemies.​

​

Psychic Forcefields

You create circular forcefields where your cursor is, they're bigger than the Electrosphere Launchers projectiles and last longer.​

Enemies get trapped/slowed down inside simillar to the Lightning Aura Staff.​

Post-Martian Madness​

​

Spellbinding Circles

Similar to the Psychic Forcefields.​

Acquired at the start of HM.​

​

Fighting Music

Swith between instruments with right click​

Each instrument/melody has a different attack (slash, explosion, shot)​

Tooltip: "Check it out!"​

​

Spear Staff

Crafted with Diamond Staff and Magic Missile.​

Created a big magical spear projectile that deals high damage and pierces 2 enemies.​

​

Tormented Cry / Spirit Screams

Consumes both health and mana. Because of this, it deals more damage than its usual tier of magic weapons.​

​

Cursed Skulls

Consumes health isntead of mana. Slightly homes, and deals very high damage.​

Big Hat's Tome

It's magic damage is always equal to your maximum mana​

​

Time Daggers

Like Magic Daggers, daggers have an afterimage which stays for 1-2 seconds dealing damage.​

​

Mana Drainer

Cost 0 Mana​

Gains more damage the more used up your mana pool is - deals 0 damage when your mana is full​

Attacks grant mana regeneration​

​

​

Scrolls - new mage items: Grants a powerful/useful buff for a limited time (5 minutes) but uses large amounts of mana (~300) and decreases its duration while you're using a non-Magic weapon (but accessories that deal damage, like the Spore Sac, will not decreas the buffs length). Has a cooldown of 10 minutes (Scroll Sickness).
You can only use 1 scroll at a time.
Counterpart to melee weapon imbues

Revival Scroll

Uses 350 Mana​

If you would die, your max hp becomes 1. Your max returns to its original value after you die and respawn.​

This synergizes with items that work when you're at full hp, since when you're at 1 max hp, you're always at full health.​

Healing Scroll

Uses 300 Mana​

Grants a Healing Over TIme (HoT) buff for 30 seconds. 1 minute cooldown. It heals you for 5 hp/s​

This is NOT health regeneration! This HoT heals you instead of regenerating health.​

This bypasses Bleeding and any DoT effects that prevent you from health regeneration, and this heals you while you're also take damage from that DoT.​

This does not accelerate health regeneration.​

Fairy Scroll

Uses 250 mana​

Call forth a special fairy to reveal treasure and rare creatures.​

​

Soothing Scroll

Uses all your mana, heal the lowest health player on your team by that much health.​

Scroll of Pain

Gain a buff for a few seconds, all damage you would receive is reflected towards your mouse cursor instead and it's doubled. You must hold this scroll to reflect the damage.​

Short Cooldown.​

​

Summoner:


Antlion Staff

Mirage Serpent Staff

Summons a single serpent that gets buffed the more summons you gve it​

It attack separates the summon into multiple summons, each in a different color attacking the same enemy.​

Cannon Sentry

Shoots cannonballs, just like the actual Cannons​

​

Scorpion Tail Staff

Summons Scorpion tails attached to your body. Each tail does very high damge, does not pierce, and attacks in a Chain Guilotine style but more rapidly and farther.​

Scorpion stings inflict an upgraded version of Acid Venom that deals double the damage.​

New sentries that create a circle, enemies in that circle are focused by summons and gain bonus tag damage and crit. Example:

Venn Dia Gram Staff

Places a circle sentry. It does not attack enemies but any summon damage dealt inside this circle has increased tag damage and enemies inside the circle are targeted.​

When you summon multiple circles which overlap - damage dealt inside the overlapped sections is increased even more.​

Black Hole Devourer Staff

Summons a black hole sentry.​

Sucks enemies into it. / Hands come out of the portal and drag mobs one at a time into the portal.​

While a mob is inside the portal, the portal begins "eating" them, dealing damage at a high rate.​

​

Desert Shepards Cane

Minions follow your mouse cursor as you hold this item​

Spoiler: Miscellaneous ideas

There are so many weapons to use in a playthrough that i'd wish i could use more of them while not cluttering my inventory with 5+ weapons to use at one time, i'll only use 3 of them at most. I suggest adding more tiers of progression - more content around mech bosses to golem, so players can have more opportunities to use different weapons.

They don't need to provide many drops in term of weapons, but just some useful equipment, potions or delving more into some unexplored parts of the game like Cannons, Musical Items, Upgrades to NPC weapons/expanded shops/ more options to click when talking to some NPCs etc.

Here's suggestions for more fights/content:

Lava Sharks in the Underworld
New Post-all mech bosses invasion, The Troupe. It will always appear at the beginning of the next day after you've defeated your third mechanical bosses.
It unlocks a new Joker/ Jester/ Clown NPC.

• He sells buff stations, musical instruments, music boxes, toys, some magic and range gear.
• Has an Entertain option. He performs a magic trick - granting you a buff for 10 minutes.

Skill Trader NPC - takes in gems as currency for a trade.

Desert Mimic (opposite of the snow mimic).

Artificial mini biome - Junkyard

Windy day + Heavy raining = Storm Event

Hallow

• New plant: Rainbow Root
• New gem: Quartz
• New enemy: Leprechaun - same as the gnome, in sunlight transforms into an item. Shoots a rainbow similar to the rainbow gun and moves through it.

  • Make it work similar to the Chain Guillotines.
• Smoke Bombs
  • You throw them and they explode upon tile collision. They won't break tiles, and they'll just spawn a lot of smoke in one place.
• Use Shell Piles at an Extractinator.
  • Extracts Coralstone, Seashells, Starfish, Coral.
• Binoculars
  • While standing still, right click to look further away with them.

• Strange Brew
  • Rework it to heal 120 but has a shorter cooldown ( 52 seconds for example, 39 with the Philosophers Stone)
  • HM only

  • Change the recipe to Avenger Emblem + Magnet Flower. Let it also grant 10-15% mana reduction, but does not retain the auto mana potion consumption. +20 extra mana?
  • As it is now it's just a slightly better Magic Emblem - my idea with this buff is that it becomes a worthy counterpart to the other similarly tiered acessories for the other classes: the Sniper Scope, Molten Glove and Papyrus Scarab
• Arctic Diving Gear
  • Flipper potion-like movement in water
• Diving Helmet
  • Increase drop chance to 3-5%
• Obsidian Water Walking Boots, Molten Charm and tinkers

• Staff of Earth, Stynger
  • Dropped post-Golem by Lihzahrds - Golem has a very big pool of items.
• Grappling Hook
  • Instead of being sold by the Goblin Tinkerer, let the Merchant sell it. By the time you get the Goblin Invasion, you've already most probably got a gem hook.
• Obsidian Rose
  • Immunity to On Fire! - tinkers do not gain this bonus

  • The sentry stays on top of your head, just like the Chlorophyte Armor's Crystal Leaf. Additional sentries summons buff the first sentry.

• Obsidian Torches
  • Make them brighter, they're very dim
• Portal Gun
  • I see no point in Moon Lord not dropping another Portal Gun while you already have one in your iventory.
• Flesh Knuckles, Putried Scent
  • Craft each one into the other via Ecto Mist
• Finch Staff
  • Make it obtainable in any wooden chest, this way it feels like a counterpart to the Wand of Sparking. But still keep it in the Living Chest Pool
  • Or Craft this from the Wand of Sparking vie Ecto Mist and vice versa
• Wand of Sparking
  • Conversely, make this also obtainable in living wood chests. This way Living Wood Trees/Chests are useful for both Summoners and Mages in the early game.

  • Increases flight time by 1 second
  • Increases movement speed by 10%
• Staff of Regrowth
  • Hold click on grass blocks to grow bushes or vines.

  • Grants On Fire! to Whips.
• Magma Skull and tinkers
  • All attacks inflict On Fire!
• Molten Skull Rose
  • Grants immunity to On Fire!

  • Phaseblades gain 5 armor penetration
  • Phasesabers gain 15 armor penetration
  • Phasesabers obtanable post 1 mech boss
• Adamantite and Titanium Pickaxes and Drills
  • Pickaxes one tier lower can mine all the ores these pickaxes can mine, there's no point incrafting these really.
  • Make them much faster, faster than the Pickaxe Axe/Drax but slower than the Shroomite Digging Claws
  • Digging tiles smooths out surrounding tiles just like the Drill Containment Unit.
• All Early HM Ore Swords
  • You gain immunity to knockback while swinging any of these swords.
• Cool Whip
  • Make the Snowflake projectile be affected by damage modifiers.
  • Increase the Snowflakes damage in Expert Mode to 20, and in Master Mode to 40. Summon up to 2 Snowflakes at once.

  • Improved buffs in Expert Mode and in Master Mode
  • E.g. +12 defense in Expert and +24 in Master

    • Extra Set Bonus: Whips summon bees on hits
    • These bees inherit weapon imbue buffs

  • Tiki Armor
    • Extra Set Bonus: Increases whip range and speed by 15%. Whips grant 15% tag critical strike chance.
  • Spooky Armor
    • Hallowed Armor is currently really good compared to this armor even though its defensive - give it some kind of additional buff rivaling Holy Protection, but make it offensive instead of defensive - maybe a buff for crowd control, similar to/synergizing with Dark Harvest
    • Extra Set Bonus: + 25% whip length and summon weapon autoswing
    • Attacking with whips increases defence/ damage reduction/ life regeneration/ grants a unique debuff effect
  • Stardust Armor
    • Extra Set Bonus: 30% increased whip speed and range and makes all summon weapons autoswing.
    • Stardust Leggings: +15% movement speed - all other luminite leggings have speed modifiers and so does Spooky Wood, why doesn't the Stardust set have it?

  • Extra Set Bonus: Summons addiitional Tornados where your sentries are and grants 1 more sentry summon
• Toolbelt
  • Change to: Increase block placement and mining range by 2

  • Give it a double jump
• Disco Ball
  • Sold by the Party Girl instead of the Merchant
  • Give it better visual effects, something like the 1.4 EoL effects

• Bananarang
  • Increased drop rate to 5-10% and drops in stacks of 2-4
• Shurikens, Throwing Knives, Javelins, etc. (but NOT Grenades!)
  • Make them melee - this makes melee a little bit more effective at the start of the game, and ranged already has tons of stuff like bows and guns
  • Endgame throwing weapons are melee (Daybreak, Vampire Knives, Scourge), boomerangs are melee
• Tiger Climbing Gear and tinkers
  • While grabbed onto a wall and moving in the direction of the wall, automatically climb up the wall.
  • Effectively you "Run up walls", to climb walls while perserving your moment, and continue running/flying fast.
    • This also works when you run and bump int oa 2 block high wall, you continue "running on the wall" and you keep the Hermes Boots sprint afterwards!
• Arcane Flower
  • Change the crafting recipe to Mana Flower + Putrid Scent + Mana Regeneration Band and let it inherit the effects of the latter
• Rifle Scope and tinkers
  • Enables autofire for ranged weapons. Or critical strikes ignore 25 enemy defense.

  • Material for new items
• Clentaminator
  • Make purifing an evil biome last long

  • Make the sharks home slightly on enemies.
• Add a placeable functionality to some accessories, similar to the Rock Golem Head
  • Lucky Horseshoe
  • All Boot accessories
  • All Quivers
  • All Gloves
• Pearls
  • Increase the drop rate of all Pearls from Oysters - it's almost impossible to get Pink Pearls.
• Place Piggy Banks, Water Candles and such on blocks, not just on platforms.
• Wet bombs, unique ammunition - Flares, Nails, Styngers, Candy Corn, Jack O'Lantern Explosives etc., any consumable item that can be added to an NPCs shop, "mass produced" by an NPC, just by having the item in your ivnentory.
  • Add a tooltip to all these items or the weapons themselves that you can go to X NPC to mass-produce this item/the ammunition for this weapon.
  • For example, for the Wet Bombs it can write "Can be mass produced by the Demolitionist while carrying this.".
  • Maybe mass produce certain building blocks as well?
• Common materials (Mushrooms, Stingers, Jungle Spores, Vertabrae, Rotten Chunk, Pixie Dust etc.)
  • Stackable to 999
• Mining Helmet
  • Make wearing a Mining Helmet without a full mining set increase the spawnrate of Undead Miners
• Dye Plants
  • Auto select doesn't really work with dye plants, since they're just 1 block. Make it easier for auto select to detect dye plants/other 1 block things.
• Signs
  • Currently you cannot move with arrow keys through typed text in the sign
  • I'd like there to be a way to save changes to signs faster. For example - sign saves the changes when you click Esc
  • Make it so only one person can edit a sign at a time.
• Chlorophyte Armor's Crystal leaf
  • Make it home in on enemies and ignore defence.
• Hovering wings
  • The acceleration from dashing and hooking to fling yourself is interupted just like the Celestial Starboard

Miscellaneous changes:

• Make it so you can't equip accessories that don't stack with each other and which are the same or ones an upgrade to the other
  • E.g. : Celestial Shell with any of its tinkers (Moon Charm, Neptunes Shell, Sun Stone, Moon Stone and all tinkers inbetween)
  • E.g. : Monk's Belt, Squire's Shield, Huntress's Buckler, Apprentice's Scarf
• Friendly NPCs
  • Make Fairies reveal rare mobs too
    • This makes them useful in early HM, for locating Mimics and such
  • Be able to place furniture and blocks even if town NPCs are in the way.
  • If 2 town NPCs are in the same spot, either make a way to move one of them or to talk to whichever one you want.
    • I suggest two speech bubbles pop up - one for each npc - you click the speech bubble of the npc you want to talk to
    • Or you can emote and one of them will be forced to move towards you. The other one won't move
  • Guide
    • Keep items favorited after you've asked the Guide about using it for crafting.
  • Merchant
    • Make some often used materials and items sold by the Merchant post-HM
    • Maybe sells specific materials based on the biome he is in, or the can sell copies of materials you have in your inventory, similar to how the Arms Dealer sells unique ammunition when you hold the the corresponding weapon, or how the Demolitionist sells you more Wet Bombs.
  • Tax Collector
    • Make him give you more money the more the game progresses, similar to how the Nurse charges more
  • Angler
    • Double the droprate of all quest rewards.
    • Doubled them once again in HM and he gives 2 fishing quests each day.
    • New rewards.
• Enemy NPCs
  • Possessed Armor spawns Wraith/Ghost on death
  • Endgame boss progression seems a little off - after beating Plantera, Golem and Cultist pose no real threat, so in a way after defeating plantera you can just go straight to Moon Lord. Id either make them more difficult or add another manditory step/boss before Cultist.
  • Golem
    • Make him jump more often, and when eh lands he makes shockwaves similar to Queen Slimes.
  • Lunatic Cultist
    • Make him more difficult
    • Phase 2 he can periodically use 2 attacks at once.
  • Give archer cultist icons on the minimap.
    • After hitting archer cultists accidentally you know where they run off to.
  • Slimes
    • I don't know how to explain this but the slime hitboxes from specific angles are very weird, you don't hit them with whips and other weapons when yo uthink yo ushould. Maybe its because of the sloped blocks.
  • Wyverns, Harpies
    • They won't spawn during boss battles.
    • They spawn at higher altitudes.
  • Truffle Worm
    • Spawn only post-Plantera
  • Improve multiplayer boss battles
    • As it is now multiplayer boss battles are quite hectic. When one player is targeted by the boss, the other players cannot predict the what the boss will do, the pattern they're used to is totally randomized because the boss is after another player. Projectiles fly everywhere, it's chaotic. It's pretty cheesy how respawning changes the battle so much, it's like a safety net and makes the battle easier. I have no suggestions to fix this yet.
    • A separate idea i had is what if bosses gained back health after killing a player
  • Dark Mage, Ogre
    • Double all their drop rates
• Thorn Bush Hazards/Damaging tiles
  • Most other hazards deal very high damage, but thorns don't. How about increasing their damage so they become more of a threat?
  • Maybe double their damage in each difficulty, x2 in Expert, x3 in Master, x4 in for the Worthy (base damage for Evil Biome thorns is 10, and jungle thorns is 25).
• Weapons
  • Minions
    • When you're running away from a boss, some minions will quit attacking the boss and attempt to return to you instead, even though the boss is right next to them.
    • I think this is by design and this might actually be a bad change but i'd like more high-tier minions to be able to attack the bosses even while they're coming back to you.
    • Add an option for minions to focus specific types of minions that you prefer, similar to the additional option in the cheat sheet mod.
    • Make all minions knock enemies AWAY from you.
  • Sentries
  • Spears
    • They're rather underused past the early game
    • Give them an alt-fire - throw them, or spin them like the Sleepy Octopod
    • Or give them more crit chance and or armor penetration and longer range.
    • Or give some the ability to pass through walls
    • Increased size increases the range/length of the spear even moreso
  • Flails + Autoswing accessories = Alternate Attack
    • Hold right click to constantly throw and attack with the flail
  • Boomerangs
    • Increased speed instead increases the range and size of the boomerang
• Overhauls
  • Marble Biome - Underground Marble Coliseum. Large biome, comparable to Granite. A few more enemies.
  • Granite Biome - Hanging lights. Lights from cores, and from cracks in the background. A few more enemies.
  • Floating Islands - 1 more mob and 1 unique flotaing castle structure, in sky, positioned between the Snow Biome and the Dungeon.
  • Lihzarhd Temple - More enemies, and a few more challenges in the temple aside from traps. As it is now it reminds me of hoe the Eclipse in 1.2 had only a few enemies but then got overhauled to something completely different.
  • Ocean
  • Post-HM Underworld
  • Post-HM Desert
  • Post-HM Snow Biome
  • Some NPCs
    • Skeleton Merchant - His only point in HM is to get the Yoyo Glove + Counterweight and maybe the Slap Hand for fun.
    • Angler - Give accessory rewards for fishing more consistantly + he's rarely utilized in HM
  • Fishing in post-HM doesn't have as many items in Pre-HM
    • Fishing line wont break when you fish enemies up (Blood Moon Fishing mobs, Duke Fishron)
  • Extractinator
• Remove starter items (throwing knives, lesser healing potions, glowsticks) in endgame chests (Lihzahrd and Biome chests) and instead replace them with high tier potions (Lifeforce, Rage, Wrath so you can get them in Crimson/Corruption worlds, Greater Luck Potions, Potion of Return, Golden Delight, and more Gold Coins)
• Change auto select while mining blocks such that it ignores blocks you have insufficient mining power for
  • This makes mining Spikes in the Pre-HM Dungeon and in the Jungle Temple much easier
• Quickstack/Deposit/Restock from Money Through/Void Vault/Safe/Defenders Forge
  • When you pick up an item which you alread have in your void vault and it is stackable, quick stack the picked up item to the stack in the void bag
• Make it so when you pick up a duplicate of a weapon that's already in your inventory, if possible, make it not go to your hotbar.
• Make Water Chests more common.
• Add a message in the middle of the day to remind that the travelling merchant is waiting for the player. Sometimes I forget he arrived.
• Items that have fallen outside of the edges of the world are moved into your inventory, just like how banners are put into your inventory.
• Make the names of the items you're holding, that appear above your hotbar, have the same color as their rarity.
• Sprite updates
  • All torches, unicorn horn, shurikens, daggers, Pharoahs Set, feral claws, rubble and decorative skulls in cavern layer caves, minishark
  • All torches and unicorn horns look like sticks - it's not really aesthetically pleasing - they can look better if they look like cones.
  • Many leggings/boots in the game look like triangles, but Leinforses leggings/fancypants look like actual boots. This is a pretty big change that isn't really worth it, but i'd like more boots in the game to look like Leinforses.
• Change or add to miles per hour and feet distance blocks per second and the distance in blocks
• Sandstorm and Snowstorm
  • Snowstorms and Sandstorm happen simultaneously. When they begin and when they end appears in the chat.
  • Deactivate during a boss battle or invasion
  • Common during blood moons

Minor inconsistancies

• Change all instances of "minion damage" to "summon damage", since whips and sentries also benefit from so called "minion damage"
• You can only move your map up with "space", even if you've changed your "Up" button.
• If you unlock your hotbar in multiplayer and save and exit, this change won't be saved the next time you enter multiplayer.
  • It stays locked in single player.
• You can fall through liquids while water walking.
  • There are times when I fall through liquids even with water walking on. I think it's because of slanted blocks.
• Sometimes Life Fruits disappear after hitting them.
• Yoyos sometimes glitch through walls if they are too close to you - the yoyo goes through the wall and comes back to you.

Spoiler: New QoL Features

Accessory Swap

I'm fine with the recent change to the vanity accessory slots, but I think it would be best if there's a new feature to replace it, just like how Torch God was added so you can automatically place the correct biome torches.​

Add a new feature that lets you swap out accessories better than before, here are my solutions:​

• Swapping out accessories/armors by having them in your hotbar and clicking on them.
  • What if you want to replace an accessory in a specific slot? I suggest the order in which you swap out accessories is backwards of your hotbar, hotbar's slot 0 = 1st accessory, slot 9 = 2nd accessory, slot 8 = 3rd accessory and so on.
• Previously mentioned Switch Gloves (New Content -> Items). Swap out however many armor pieces and accessories that you desire with just 1 click! Or instead of an item, make it a feature in the game.

Low health signaling

An easily noticeable but not distracting way of signaling low health. The player closing their eyes slightly isn't the most noticeable thing.​

Here are some suggestions I came up with:​

• Players health bar or a exclamation point appears above their head at low health
• The player starts flashing in red on low health or during invincibility frames
• Colors change near the edges of your screen/ make it red or maybe even customizable
• Make the health bar much longer/larger

Improve the gamesense in general​

When you're not paying attention and for new players expecially it's difficult to register when you're getting hit and how hard you got hit, from where did the hit come from, seeing projectiles, assesing the danger of situation, keeping track of your health constantly.​

Auto-buff

• When your buff potions wear off and you're still in an event or boss battle- the buffs are automatically consumed without you needing to press buff.
• Avoids lose of max health from the Lifeforce potion and despawning of a minion from the Summoner potion.
• No more forgetting to drink potions with short durations like Magic Power and Ale.
• Enable/disable option for auto-buff during bosses and another option for events in settings.

Create a few, new unique prefixes for minionss and sentries, for example

• Perfect: +20% damage, +5 armor penetration, decent knockback
• Primal: +5% damage and a lot of knockback

Middle click on a material to narrow down the crafting menu to items that only include that material.

Smarter Void Bags

• Quick Stack and Deposit All to chests automatically works with items inside your Void Bag.
• Picking up a stackable item thats already in your Void Bag gets put in that stack automatically
• Be able to open the void bag while already having an NPC shop open or a chest open

Spawn enemies from the Bestiary in Journey Mode

• You must have revealed all information about the mob before you can summon it AND you must have defeated Moon Lord
• You can also summon NPCs and bosses this way

Overbuffing signaling or increase the cap to 30 buffs

One giant storage chest - crafted and expanded with Books from the dungeon.

Hints for events, items, bosses for new players.

Thank you for your time.

 

[Scratch Lunin]

There is so much I like about this, but I can't even list them all. This is really cool, especially the items. I'm not sure if these will be in the game, but I don't want them to go to waste. Perhaps you could join my mod team and help us with a mod we're planning to start, so we could add these to the game?

 

[J Bame]

Gliding Cape - Accessory

• Hold UP while falling to glide and fall slower.
• Hold DOWN while falling to fall faster.
• Obtainable from Sky Chests and Crates

Explorers Spacesuit

• Nullifies the effects of low gravity in space, makes you fall faster while closer to the ground and combines the abilities of its materials.
• Crafted with: Gliding Cape, Night Vision Helmet, Pharaoh's Robe, Arctic Diving Gear, Obsidian Horseshoe and 20 Meteorite Bars.

Fun idea, but why does it have a downgrade accessory (falling faster over time is a downside with an effect like this) that is made with that many items that are almost completely unrelated to each other?

Head of Hades - Accessory

• Double tap DOWN to turn on permanent stealth, enemies are much less likely to target you. Even if you are hit you are still invisible.
• Defense is cut in half.
• Dropped by Medusa in Crimson/Corruption
• Does not work in PVP.

Weird item here. With the way enemy targeting works in this game it has 0 impact in Singleplayer, and also comes with a rather big downside that'd make you never use it. It's also got a weird way to be obtained (why Medusa, and why evil biome?) and for some reason it's locked in the only mode where it'd be kind of interesting.

Frog Carpet

• Crafted with Frog Leg and Flying Carpet
• Combines both effects of the Frog Leg and Flying Carpet
• While you are riding the carpet you can jump into the air and continue riding the carpet
• I just love the frog leg and want to be able to use it later on as the game progresses, but using it as a separate accessory seems like a waste sometimes.

I don't think the Frog Leg is made for this item, really. You always use it with Balloons and Wings, and the Carpet doesn't exactly work too well with those. I'd just add the new effect to the base Carpet, since that's really how it should work already.

Sandstorm Scarab

• Grants the player 2% Summon damage, 2 defense, 1% damage reduction times your maximum number of minions. For example you have 5 maximum minions, the accessory will provide you with 10% Summon damage, 10 defense and 5% damage reduction
• Obtainable from Pyramid Chests
• Material for Demon Contract

Interesting idea and it's exactly what summoner needs, although increasing minion damage like that wouldn't work the way you think it does (A Minion's damage is set the moment it's summoned, it does not update unless you summon again), unless they fix that of course.

Cerberus Leash

• Increases your max number of minions by 1.
• Obtainable from Shadow Chests in the Underworld
• Material for Demon Contract

I love this one, it's simple and it's yet another thing summoner needs for PHM; a good general combat accessory.

Demon Contract

• Grants the player 2% Summon damage, 2 defense, 1% damage reduction times your maximum number of minions.
• Increases your max number of minions by 1.
• Regenerates life while a sentry is summoned.
• Crafted with the Sandstorm Scarab, Cerberus Leash, 1 Forbidden Fragment, 5 Chlorophyte Ore.
• Material for Purified Scarab

I think you can get away with making this Early HM and dropping the random Chloro Ores in the recipes. There may also be a different material you could use instead of the Desert-Themed Forbidden Fragments (Living Fire maybe?)

I also don't think it needs the Extra regen with a sentry thing, it's already doing enough as it stands.

Purified Scarab

• Grants the player 2% Summon damage, 2 defense, 1% damage reduction times your maximum number of minions.
• Increases your max number of minions by 2.
• Regenerates life while a sentry is summoned.
• Crafted with the Demon Contract, Pygmy Necklace and 6 Beetle Husks.
• My idea for this accessory is the Witch Doctor exorcised the Demon Contract using his own jungle voodoo via the Pygmy Necklace.

Busted and unnecessary. 2 minions is huge and it'd be used for that alone, plus the previous accessory was fine already.

Mushroom Glowfish

• Light Pet, Better lighting than the Shadow Orb and Crimson Heart
• Acquired by fishing in a underground mushroom biome

Yes, we need more places to fish, even if it's just for cosmetics like this.

Even Claws

• While you have accessories ONLY in EVEN numbered accessory slots, you gain 22% damage
• Obtainable from Locked Gold Chests in the dungeon.
• Material for the Balance Bracelets

I kinda see what you are trying to do here, but Demon Heart being a thing makes this broken as hell since it'd just be a much better Emblem unless you really don't want that 6th slot for a most-likely-not-objective reason.

Odd Helix Shell

• While you have accessories ONLY in ODD numbered accessory slots, your defense is doubled.
• Obtainable by converting Desert Fossils through the Extractinator. 1 in 300 drop chance
• Material for the Balance Bracelets

Let's not double player stats please, especially in an item that'd have 0 drawbacks in the stage of the game where defense matters.

Balance Bracelets

• 8% damage to all damage and 8 defense
• Crafted with Even Claws, Odd Ancient Shield, 1 Light Shard, 1 Dark Shard.
• One bracelet is black with a white gem on it, the other bracelet is white with a black gem on it.

That's really cool, but the stats could be a little better (and its downgrades need to be better designed)

Cursed Nail Mask

• Cannot be willingly removed after being equipped. Accessory slot will be colored in dark purple.
• Breaks after 10th death, curse will persist even in mediumcore.
• Increases all damage by 15%, 5% critical strike chance and provides life regeneration 3hp/s
• Increases spawn rate
• 10% to be dropped by Red Demons and Nailheads
• Tooltip: "Voodoo nails are drilled deep into your skull. The curse fills you with thirst for blood."

Yeah, this is not the kind of game where stuff like this would fit.

Funnily enough though, this literally doesn't have a downside as no one would ever unequip this insanely overtuned accessory, so why did you even bother making it.

Royal Scorpion Saddle

• Summons the Giant Scorpion Mount. It's similar to the Bunny Mount in speed
• Mines blocks horizontally. Useful for making your own underground rail line!
• Found in Desert Chests

Desert Chests? You mean those in the Underground Desert or a new Biome chest? In the first case it's a bit too early to get a strong mining tool, in the latter it's way too late in the game to be useful.

Engineering Armor Set

• Instead of just having the Engineering helmet as a vanity hat, lets make it an armor.
• Increases block, wall, furniture and wiring placement speeds by 25% and range by 5 blocks.
• Sold by the Mechanic.

• Crafted with an entire Mining and Engineering Set
• Increases placement and pickaxe/hammer/axe speed by 75% and placement and mining range by 8 blocks.
• Provides light.
• Increases movement speed by 10%.

Really cool ideas, but 75% on that upgrade is way too much. The 50% from Builder Potion + Gizmo pack is already very noticeable.

Solar Whistle

• Spawn rate is decreased during the day, increased during the night and greatly increased during events. (Events include Forst, Pumkin, Blood Moon, Solar Eclipse, all invasions, all weather events)
• Works by having it in your inventory, just like informational accessories
• 25% to be dropped by Mothron.

I like it, but maybe better as an accessory? This is way too helpful for grinding to allow you to use it for free. At least it'd cost you a slot.

Iron Bone Potion

• Negates knockback.
• Crafted with: Bottled Water, Iron Ore, Bone and Daybloom.

RIP the only reason to equip a Cobalt Shield + upgrades.

Stardust Armor

• The additional minion slots become shared with sentry slots. Or straight up give it 5 extra minions and 5 extra sentry slots.
• Make the Stardust Guardian lure mobs near it in a 30 block radius and inflicts the Slow Debuff.
• While the Stardust Guardian is dispatched you will also gain a buff similar to the Putrid Scent, making enemies less likely to target you. While the Stardust Guardian is not dispatched it provides you with 3% damage reduction times your max number of minions.
• You can double tap DOWN to teleport to your last summoned sentry. Your last summoend sentry's edges will be highlighted.

How to make the ML sentries good: Multiply them by 5. I never though it'd be that simple to buff Stardust armor.

As for the second change... well that's what the Guardian is supposed to do already, it's just glitchy as hell because messing with enemy AIs is a bad idea. The DR is actually pushing it a lot now that it also gives that many more sentries, it's endgame so no one cares, but keep that in mind.

The new ability is unnecessary and also conflicts with the Guardian's activation, so i'd just drop it.

Solar Flare Armor

• Make it so you always have a dash and it doesn't depend on having a shield.
• Increase Damage and Defense so it's the best end game melee set.

Why isn't it like this already?

Auto-buff

• When your buff potions wear off and you're still in an event or boss battle- the buffs are automatically consumed without you needing to press buff.
• Avoids lose of max health from the Lifeforce potion and despawning of a minion from the Summoner potion.
• No more forgetting to drink potions with short durations like Magic Power and Ale.
• Enable/disable option for auto-buff during bosses and another option for events in settings.

Yes. Especially if you can turn it off so you don't accidentally waste potions while farming.

 

[ShivTex3]

Some of your ideas are really cool, And I would love to see them on game, But I would like to see images, Idk I cant imagine these items xD, You should consider adding some sprites For your ideas, It would be really nice to see some nice animated stuff here

 

[THE EASTER CHEESE]

Cool very very cool

 

[The Star Breaker]

Fun idea, but why does it have a downgrade accessory (falling faster over time is a downside with an effect like this) that is made with that many items that are almost completely unrelated to each other?

I thought it would be a fun idea to play around falling faster depending on something, but just straight up accelerating the more you fall might be good enough.
The idea for this accessory is an accessory that combines multiple others that help while you are exploring the world. The Gliding Cape helps with mobility, Pharaohs Robe stops the Might Wind debuff while you're in a sandstorm, Diving gear helps with underwater exploration, and Obsidian Horseshoe helps with exploration in the underworld and finally makes this particular accessory viable. I can change around some of the accesories so it's better suited for all kinds of exploration.

Weird item here. With the way enemy targeting works in this game it has 0 impact in Singleplayer, and also comes with a rather big downside that'd make you never use it. It's also got a weird way to be obtained (why Medusa, and why evil biome?) and for some reason it's locked in the only mode where it'd be kind of interesting.

After the invisibility part i wrote that enemies will be less likely to target you, similar to how putrid scent lowers enemy aggro. I wanted to play around with the idea of permanent stealth, you stay stealthed even after taking damage.
You obtain it that way because of it's name "Head of Hades", the underworld god in Greek mythology. God of the underworld/evil => evil biome, greek mythology => Medusa. Then again, a marble biome must be near an evil biome for this to work, since marble can't be converted to an evil biome.

Interesting idea and it's exactly what summoner needs, although increasing minion damage like that wouldn't work the way you think it does (A Minion's damage is set the moment it's summoned, it does not update unless you summon again), unless they fix that of course.

I know about the damage, thats why i worded it in a specific way, perhaps I didn't word it correctly. My intention with this line "Grants the player .... times your maximum number of minions." is that it already knows your maximum number of minions you can summon, not the amount you have summoned. So for example, you can summon up to 5 minions, that means that it'll give you 10% minion damage right away to all summons, not this: giving 2% damage, then 4%, then 6% and so on.
But now that you brought that up again you reminded me about something, i totally overlooked the potion and bewitching table buffs, the moment you use those buffs you have to summon your minions all over again, which is a pain but it isn't something major.

I think you can get away with making this Early HM and dropping the random Chloro Ores in the recipes. There may also be a different material you could use instead of the Desert-Themed Forbidden Fragments (Living Fire maybe?)

I also don't think it needs the Extra regen with a sentry thing, it's already doing enough as it stands.

Comparing it to the Necromantic Scroll i think it's better to be a post mech boss accessory, hence the Chloro ore. But i do like living fire as a material for this.
I just realized that all other classes have class specific accessories early hardmode except for summoner (yoyo bag, magic quiver, celestial magnet/mana flower), so that's an argument for making it early hardmode. But i think that if you have both materials it will be enough for early hardmode.
The regen is because i want to make sentries more viable, rewarding the player for having sentries out.

Busted and unnecessary. 2 minions is huge and it'd be used for that alone, plus the previous accessory was fine already.

After think about it 2 extra minion slots on a single accesory really is a lot. Might change it to providing an addition minion and sentry instead.

I kinda see what you are trying to do here, but Demon Heart being a thing makes this broken as hell since it'd just be a much better Emblem unless you really don't want that 6th slot for a most-likely-not-objective reason.

I didn't understand the last part. Could you please explain it?

Let's not double player stats please, especially in an item that'd have 0 drawbacks in the stage of the game where defense matters.

Drawback is you cannot use 2 accessory slots, 1 slot is used by this shell, this leaves you with only 2 other accessories you can use.
Either way, the idea of this accessory was ODD accessory slots only, i agree the effect it has to be rebalanced to something else.

Yeah, this is not the kind of game where stuff like this would fit.

Funnily enough though, this literally doesn't have a downside as no one would ever unequip this insanely overtuned accessory, so why did you even bother making it.

The drawback is increased spawnrate.
I made it because i liked the concept of a cursed accessory and that's the entire ide behind it. The buffs/debuffs can be modified so it becomes balanced. No need to throw the idea in the trash just because i overstated it now, I can always change it.

Desert Chests? You mean those in the Underground Desert or a new Biome chest? In the first case it's a bit too early to get a strong mining tool, in the latter it's way too late in the game to be useful.

Yeah underground desert, specifically the new desert chests that are in the Journey's End trailer.

How to make the ML sentries good: Multiply them by 5. I never though it'd be that simple to buff Stardust armor.

As for the second change... well that's what the Guardian is supposed to do already, it's just glitchy as hell because messing with enemy AIs is a bad idea. The DR is actually pushing it a lot now that it also gives that many more sentries, it's endgame so no one cares, but keep that in mind.

The new ability is unnecessary and also conflicts with the Guardian's activation, so i'd just drop it.

Yeaaah i was thinking about Balistas when i was writing that. My bad. It can still give extra sentries but just less, like 2 more.

What is DR?

I actually really like this teleportation ability, i think it makes sentries more viable even if it's just a tool to teleport and dodge a Moon Lord Laser. Theres a little bit of synergy too, the sentry will kill minions around it, so its safe to teleport. Well, it won't always be safe, but there's still synergy there.



Thank you for all your suggestions!! I really appreciate it!

 

[J Bame]

I didn't understand the last part. Could you please explain it?

Turns out I misunderstood how these items worked, i thought it only worked when you had an even number of accessories equipped (So it would always be active with the 6 you have in Hardmode Expert mode), not when they were on even slots. That's actually really, really bad. 22% extra damage is never worth dropping 3 entire slots.

What is DR?

I actually really like this teleportation ability, i think it makes sentries more viable even if it's just a tool to teleport and dodge a Moon Lord Laser. Theres a little bit of synergy too, the sentry will kill minions around it, so its safe to teleport. Well, it won't always be safe, but there's still synergy there.

Damage Reduction.

I called it unnecessary, because you are never keeping track of where you placed your last sentry to know where this exactly where this will take you. This is just a cheap "get me out of here" card in practice.

This also doesn't have a range limit, so you could use it to potentially teleport an incredibly long distance any time on any situation, or just use it as a RoD with no downside by just resummoning the sentry where you want to go.

It's hard to balance a concept like this, and the armor is already doing more than enough after your buffs, so it's really not needed.

I know about the damage, thats why i worded it in a specific way, perhaps I didn't word it correctly. My intention with this line "Grants the player .... times your maximum number of minions." is that it already knows your maximum number of minions you can summon, not the amount you have summoned. So for example, you can summon up to 5 minions, that means that it'll give you 10% minion damage right away to all summons, not this: giving 2% damage, then 4%, then 6% and so on.

Misread again, no problem here.

The regen is because i want to make sentries more viable, rewarding the player for having sentries out.

Actually yes, this really is better than Papyrus Scarab, so keep it Post Plantera if you are not changing it. However, Summoner already has a lot of Post Plantera Accessories, while it has exactly 0 in Pre-Mech outside of the Emblem, so I think tuning it down for that tier will be better for the game.

Also, sentries are viable enough. Queen Spiders are much stronger than people think, and if the Hydra was more accurate and more powerful it would also be very good for its tier, and with OOA stuff these things destroy.

The drawback is increased spawnrate.
I made it because i liked the concept of a cursed accessory and that's the entire ide behind it. The buffs/debuffs can be modified so it becomes balanced. No need to throw the idea in the trash just because i overstated it now, I can always change it.

The idea of a Cursed accessory is fine if you don't make it too polarizing. The part that needs to go is the "you can't ever take it off lol". That's the kind of thing you see in a roguelike, not a sandbox/adventure/action game like this. Imagine misclicking and putting it on by accident, and then have to die 10 times just to take it off.

Also, is increased spawns really a downside? I'll take easier grinding any day, especially if it comes with an above average accessory on top of it.

 

[The Star Breaker]

Turns out I misunderstood how these items worked, i thought it only worked when you had an even number of accessories equipped (So it would always be active with the 6 you have in Hardmode Expert mode), not when they were on even slots. That's actually really, really bad. 22% extra damage is never worth dropping 3 entire slots.

I was mainly thinking about using it pre hardmode/early hardmode since there aren't that many damage accessories pre-hm. Might give it another spin since i like the idea of having accessories only in even/odd numbered slots.

It's hard to balance a concept like this, and the armor is already doing more than enough after your buffs, so it's really not needed.

Thanks for the summoning armor advice! I'll try to see if i can think about something entirely different than just 2 extra sentries and better Stardust Guardian distractions.

Also, sentries are viable enough. Queen Spiders are much stronger than people think, and if the Hydra was more accurate and more powerful it would also be very good for its tier, and with OOA stuff these things destroy.

Yeah i really love the Queen Spider Staff, i want more sentries like it. But most other don't don't do as much. Balistas and the Frost hydra just shoot, but i'll admit I haven't focused on using the Aura staffs from dungeon defenders.

The idea of a Cursed accessory is fine if you don't make it too polarizing. The part that needs to go is the "you can't ever take it off lol". That's the kind of thing you see in a roguelike, not a sandbox/adventure/action game like this. Imagine misclicking and putting it on by accident, and then have to die 10 times just to take it off.

I wonder what else can make a accessory cursed.

About the spawnrates, if you're farming yes it's an absolute benefit, but what if it's at a point of progression where you can't effectively farm hoardes of enemies and it's overwhelming? Or it has another limitation that makes it so you cannot farm multiple enemies effectively?


Take this, it lowers your invincibillity frames and grants other benefits.

 

[Scratch Lunin]

Yeah, I have to agree with Bame on the cursed accessory one. If it's like the Curse of Binding from Minecraft, then that doesn't really fit the game. I'm not sure what would make it cursed, but physically binding it to you may be too much.

 

[The Star Breaker]

@Jota Bame I updated some stuff, take a look

Balance Bracelets

• 6% damage to all damage and 6 defense, 6 armor penetration and 6% damage reduction.
• Crafted with Even Claws, Odd Ancient Shield, 1 Light Shard, 1 Dark Shard.
• One bracelet is black with a white gem on it, the other bracelet is white with a black gem on it.

The thing about this accessory is, when i compare it to other stuff it seems a little too good early heardmode. For instance the Ankh Shield, it provides only 4 defense, while these Bracelets give you 8 or 6. Or compare it with the Avenger Emblem, 12% vs 8 / 6% damage. That's why I think 8% damage and 8 defense is more than enough.

I also thought about another possibility, making this accessory into 2 accessories. For example, Bracelet of Light = +8 % damage and +8% DR, Bracelet of Dark = +8 defense and + 8 armor penetration. And later on, post Planthera, I can combine both into the Balance Bracelets.

Cursed Nail Mask

• Increases all damage by 10%, 5% critical strike chance. Melee and ranged attacks have a chance to inflict Shadowflame or Oiled + On Fire!. 5% reduced mana usage.
• Cuts invincibillity frames in half and enemies are more likely to target you.
• Weakens a little bit upon each death, until it eventually becomes too weak and breaks entirely. Each death reduces the following stats -2% damage, -1% critical strike chance, -1% mana usage and the debuff changes from Shadowflame / Oiled + On Fire! > Frostburn > Venom > On Fire! > Poisoned. Breaks after you die while you have it equipped with +0% on everything.
• After acquiring this Mask in your inventory another Mask cannot be dropped until the first one breaks or is trashed.
• 10% to be dropped by Red Demons and Nailheads.
• Tooltip: "Voodoo nails are drilled deep into your skull. The curse fills you with thirst for blood."

I'm not too sure about the debuffs and mana reduction. Other possibilities I've thought about are healing you with 5 / 10 hp every other enemy you kill, and another downside, the Mech bosses spawn as early as possible.

 

[J Bame]

The 4 defense on the Ankh Shield never changes anything and it could straight up be removed from the item and people would still use it for the same reasons. Celestial Stone is another item that gives 4 defense, and that is such a small bonus that almost everyone considers it on par with the 2% crit boost (this is mostly because Defense sucks in endgame, but still), and we have Flesh Knuckles that give as much as 7 defense, and no one uses that because that's the only thing it does and it's super small.

The Avenger Emblem is already a rarely used item that you only ever equip when you want to max out on DPS and don't have access to anything else, it's not necessarily a problem if something gives the same or a bit more value than it.

So, with the celestial Shell ratio of 1 defense = 0.5% crit/damage, the new version is pretty much 12% worth of stats (same as avenger emblem) + a bit from the armor penetration, which is ok but could be better.

I like that second idea more, but it's bit similar in concept to the Putrid Scent/Flesh Knuckles (as stat booster weaker in value than an emblem) and Celestial Stone (this Defense/Offense mix). Also, wouldn't it be better thematically if the Light one only had the defensive stuff, and you kept the offensive ones on the Dark version?

I'm not too sure about the debuffs and mana reduction. Other possibilities I've thought about are healing you with 5 / 10 hp every other enemy you kill, and another downside, the Mech bosses spawn as early as possible.

Yeah, you are gonna have to simplify this one. There are a lot of small pluses everywhere (the tiny stat ups and the random debuffing) instead of a clear major one that makes you want to take this item's risk. Also that risk...

The downside of "gets weaker every time you die" is so unlike everything else in the game that it just doesn't fit, and technically speaking it's not even a downside since you are not guaranteed to die. Just forget about having something every time you die, it won't work.

Same for the second "Mechs spawn as early as possible" idea. The general rule for effects is "if it doesn't have a direct impact when it's equipped, forget it".

 

[The Star Breaker]

The 4 defense on the Ankh Shield never changes anything and it could straight up be removed from the item and people would still use it for the same reasons.

The Avenger Emblem is already a rarely used item that you only ever equip when you want to max out on DPS and don't have access to anything else, it's not necessarily a problem if something gives the same or a bit more value than it.

Thanks for the insights on the Ankh Shield and Avenger Emblem. Looking at the accessories this way, 8% damage and 8 defense really isn't that impressing, at least in the endgame. But wouldn't it used too often in early hardmode if the stats were better, like +12% damage / 12 def?

I like that second idea more, but it's bit similar in concept to the Putrid Scent/Flesh Knuckles (as stat booster weaker in value than an emblem) and Celestial Stone (this Defense/Offense mix).

It really is close to the Putrid Scent, and that reminds me that i never use it. Yeah I'm buffing them.

Also, wouldn't it be better thematically if the Light one only had the defensive stuff, and you kept the offensive ones on the Dark version?

I was thinking about yin and yang / balance. Just like how each of them have a little bit of the other inside of themselves, i decided to make the accessories in a similar fashion, give the defense accessory armor penetration and the damage accessory damage reduction. But i don't know if they will be effective this way.

"if it doesn't have a direct impact when it's equipped, forget it".

Great advice.

@Jota Bame and bump in general.
I updated many parts of my suggestions, I've mostly added many new items, accessories, weapons, etc. I wanted to hear your opinion on anything that catches your eye and any creative criticism you have would be welcome.
I've also been thinking about making all of these suggestions into a mod.

Frog Cape

• Combines the effects of its materials.
• Crafted with Frog Leg and Glide Cape.

Cool concept here, ngl.

Frog Boots

• Combines the effects of its materials.
• Flight time is increased and flight is faster.
• Crafted with the Frog Leg and Rocket Boots.

Will clash visually with Amphibian Boots and isn't really needed; the Frog Cape is already good enough.

Exploration Spacesuit / Exoskeleton

• Decreases the effects of low gravity in space. You fall faster. Provides light.
• Combines the effects of its materials.
• Crafted with: Rocket Boots, Frog Cape, Arctic Diving Gear, Obsidian Skull and 20 Meteorite Bars. Alternate recipe is with Glide Cape and Frog Boots.

This is Terraspark boots design; take a good item and then slap some hard-to-get QoL items to it.

Head of Hades

• Double tap DOWN to turn on permanent stealth - Even if you are hit you still stay invisible. Enemies are much less likely to target you and spawn rates are reduced.
• Defense is reduced by half while active.
• Dropped by Medusa in Crimson/Corruption - 5%.

You know how invisibility potions are really easy to get, don't have a downside nor take up a slot, and no one ever uses those?

Psychic Amplifing Headgear

• At full HP your mana regeneration is greatly increased and you're immune to Mana Sickness.
• Rare item sold by the Travelling Merchant for 40 gold.

Mana Sickness immunity means infinite mana at full health. Honestly a really bad design since it's way too overpowered when you don't take a hit and literally useless otherwise.

Bloody Rose

• When mana is low (20 mana or less) you consume health, instead of mana, at half the cost.
• Dropped by enemies fished during the Hardmode Blood Moon.
• Material for the Bloody Puzzle.

So, you kill yourself if you keep attacking when low on mana, got it. Not too sure why I'd use an effect like that, though. A "Bloody Rose" is also kind of what Blood Thorn is, visually. They are even obtained in practically the same way.

Wizard Puzzle

• Mana consumption is increased by 30%.
• Mana regeneration is increased, even more the lower your health is.
• Sold by the Wizard after killing a Rune Wizard for 30 gold.
• Material for the Bloody Puzzle.

This really shouldn't increase mana costs, it's already probably worse than Magic Cuffs as a "recover mana as you take damage" item.

Bloody Puzzle

• Mana consumption is increased by 15%.
• Mana regeneration is increased, even more the lower your health is.
• When mana is low (20 mana or less) you consume health, instead of mana, at half the cost.

I can kindof see what you are going for here (lower your health with the Bloody Rose so you can increase your mana regen) and it would probably work if you change Bloody Rose to not be a suicide item, but it also feels too polarized. idk about this one

Decoy Trap

• Sentries gain a small circle that acts as a hitbox with half its damage.
• Sold by the Witch Doctor for 25 gold after defeating an Ogre.

We already have too much Sentry Gear from OOA, and too much Summoner content from Witch Doctor. Half contact damage also seems really meh.

Chimera Heart

• Grants an additional sentry summmon for every 2 unique minions summoned.
• Example: You have summoned 4 unique minions -> you can summon 2 additional sentries.
• Sold by the Wizard while in a Graveyard for 25 gold.

Probably raise that to every 3 minions, Sentries are really strong to be able to stack up so many with an item like this.

Mammoth Skull Shield

• Grants 3 defense.
• Grants immunity to knockback.
• For every 50 Aggro gain 0,5% Damage Reduction. (Turtle set grants 2,5% DR, Beetle 6,5%, Solar Flare 9%, Flesh Knuckles and variants each grant 4%).
• Dropped by enemies in the Desert post-all mech bosses - 2%.
• For the design of this accessory I was inspired by this YuGiOh card and by One Piece's Beasts Pirates Jolly Roger.
• Material for the Cross Shield.

Actually a really, really cool concept that gives Aggro some relevance in single player. This is what Hero Shield should do, honestly.

Granite Block

• Increases immunity frames. (By 0.11 seconds)
• Enemies are more likely to target you. (+200 Aggro)
• Dropped by Granite Golems - 2%
• Material for the Cross of Myths

Okay so, Cross Necklace doubles invincibility time and that isn't used very often. What do you think 1/10th of a second is going to do?

Granite Cross

• Increases immunity (frames) the more enemies are targeting you (For every 300 aggro grants an additional 0.11 immunity frame time)
• Enemies are more likely to target you. (+ 300 Aggro)
• Crafted with Cross Necklace and Granite Block.
• Material for the Cross Shield.

Even if you go all in on the aggro this is still worse than Cross Necklace, I think.

Cross Shield

• Grants 4 defense.
• Grants immunity to knockback.
• Enemies are more likely to target you (+300 Aggro).
• For every 50 Aggro gain 0,5% DR.
• For every 300 Aggro gain 0.11s of immunity frames.
• Crafted with Mammoth Skull Shield and Granite Cross.

And you are pushing the "aggro builds" a bit too far with this.

Springs

• All dashes deal (melee) damage.
• Double tap any direction to dash. If you have another dash equipped that dash will be improved instead.
• Sold by the Jester NPC for 15 gold.
• Material for the Tackle Rush.

Pigron Snout

• You gain invincivility (frames) while dashing.
• Sold by the Merchant after defeating a Pigron - 10 Gold.
• Material for theTackle Rush.

Tackle Rush

• Double tap any direction to dash. If you have another dash equipped that dash will be improved instead.
• You gain invincivility (frames) while dashing and you deal (melee) damage to enemies while dashing.

Way too similar to Shield of Cthulhu. Also broken since Shield of Cthulhu is already an incredible item and this looks even better.

Moon Walk Shoes

• All controls are reversed.
• Double tap to dash in ANY direction (backwards ofc).
• Dropped by Nymphs - 2%

Lemme just rebind my controls to get a broken omnidirectional dash for free. Also, let's not give incredibly rare enemies a 2% drop.

Jester set

• Set bonus: Increased critical strike chance for ranged and mage piercing and sticking attacks by 25%.
• Total bonuses: 30 Defence. + 100 maximum mana. + 15% ranged and mage damage. + 25% critical strike chance to range and mage piercing and sticking attacks. 20% chance not to consume ammo. Piercing and striking attacks have a 5% chance to drop mana stars. 8% increased movement speed.
• Crafted with Hallowed Bars, Silk, Fallen Stars and Souls of Fright.

Specific parts of the set:

• Jester Mask:
  • 6 Defence. 15% increased ranged and magic damage
• Jester Coat:
  • 18 Defence. Increased maximum mana by 50, piercing and sticking attacks (Nail Gun, Tarot Cards - click Weapons) have a 5% chance to drop mana stars.
• Jester Breaches:
  • 6 Defence. Increased maximum mana by 50, 20% chance not to consume ammo. 8% increased movement speed.

Horrible stats and a set bonus that wouldn't even be that good if it affected all projectile types.

Megalodon/Dinosaur Marrow set

• Set bonus:+ 8% melee and summon damage and 8% melee speed for each unique summoned minion.
• Total bonuses: 40 Defence. + 15% melee/summon damage and melee speed and an additional 8% for each unique summoned minion. 10% increased movement speed.
• Crafted with Hallowed Bars, Souls of Fright, Sturdy Fossils or a new fossil from the ocean biome (a fossil from the bones of a megalodon/dinosaur) used at an improved Hardmode Extractinator.

Specific parts of the set:

• Dinosaur Marrow Skull:
  • 15 Defence. 15% increade melee and summon damage.
• Dinosaur Marrow Rib Cage:
  • 15 Defence. Increased max number of minions by 1. 15% increased melee speed.
• Dinosaur Marrow Pant:
  • 10 Defence. Increased max number of minions by 1. 10% increased movement speed.

I actually really like this one. Set Bonus probably snowballs too hard, though.

Madman's Straitjacket

• Vanity Armor
• "Just another piece of Vanity... or is it?"
• Wearing this + Cursed Nail Mask + Djinn's Curse/Moon Lord's Legs unlocks a unique set bonus/secret armor set: A post-Planthera Generalist set, with low armor, but great mobility.
• Set Bonus: You gain Cursed Wings and autojump, increased: jump and flight speed, movement speed, fall speed, increased immunity frames, increased damage, armor penetration, critical strike chance, damage reduction, health regeneration.

"low armor" but half the set bonus is defensive stats?

Mana Magnet Potion

• Increases your mana star pickup range. (by 13 tiles, a total of 15)
• Crafted with: Bottled Water, Fallen Star, Obsidian, Moonglow, Waterleaf.

Poise Potion

• Increases knockback resistance. Has a 10% chance to poise through an attack(have knockback immunity).
• Tooltip: "Poise."
• Crafted with: Bottled Water, Silver/Tungstun Ore, Demonite/Crimnite Ore and Daybloom.

I'd rather not design potions that have a chance to invalidate/replace certain accessory effects.

Gargyole Potion

• Increases max number of sentries by 1.
• Crafted with: Bottled Water, Fireblossom, Deathweed and a new Gargoyle Fish.

Commander Potion

• Increases sentry firing rate and whip attack speed by 20%.
• Crafted with: Bottled Water, Shiverthorn and a new Coffee Fish.

Summoner has enough powerful buffs that can be abused by all classes, we don't need two more.

Unique armor pieces (Moon Lords Legs, Djinn's Curse etc.) still give you the set bonus of the rest of your armor.

That's not what a set bonus is, though.

Make the Golem Fist work like the Chain Guillotines.

Neat buff, assuming the visual is changed so that the fist's chain doesnt suddenly deattach from the cannon.

Move some of the golem drops to drops from the Lihzahrds (e.g. Staff of Earth, Stynger)

They already drop Power Cells, if anything just raise that drop rate.

Rework Star Cloak

• Grants a 5% dodge chance.
• Every time you dodge, even dodging with other accessories, debuffs cool down faster. (But Potion Sickness will not cool down faster)
• Synergizes with the Cross necklace - when you dodge you have even more invincibility frames.
• Synergizes with other dodging equipment.

Cool buff and helps Star Veil a lot, but at 5% the dodge will just never happen.

 

[The Star Breaker]

Mana Sickness immunity means infinite mana at full health. Honestly a really bad design since it's way too overpowered when you don't take a hit and literally useless otherwise.

Mana Sickness means your magic damage is decreased, not that you cannot mana drink potions. It just removes the damage penalty. You already have infinite mana if anything, provided you have the potions.

About the full health gimmick, i was inspired by DS3's Lloyd's Sword/Shield Rings, at full HP they increase your damage or defence respectively, i wanted to play around with the same concept. I think it rewards players for dodging and you can make a some meme glass cannon build with it.
But it might be better for an accessory with such a gimmick to be generic rather than just for mages.

So, you kill yourself if you keep attacking when low on mana, got it. Not too sure why I'd use an effect like that, though. A "Bloody Rose" is also kind of what Blood Thorn is, visually. They are even obtained in practically the same way.

By the time you kill a couple of mobs you'll likely get mana stars and you won't be killing yourself anymore. I just thought that the gimmick of using your health as mana is cool. It's like a "desperate measure" of sorts so you avoid mana sickness.
I was thinking about providing either a lifesteal mechanic or a cap to the "use your health as mana" thing when you reach 50% of your health or something like that.

Actually a really, really cool concept that gives Aggro some relevance in single player. This is what Hero Shield should do, honestly.

I actually agree about the Hero Shield, this would make it finally viable. But I still don't like tha part where it's locked to crimson worlds only. Maybe if the Flesh Knuckles didn't drop from mimics but were somehow obtainable in both worlds - Maybe from Hell, since it ties to the theme of the Wall of Flesh?

Okay so, Cross Necklace doubles invincibility time and that isn't used very often. What do you think 1/10th of a second is going to do?

I entirely forgot that the cross necklace increases the time from 0,66 to 1,33. Then I'd guess around 0,55 would be good enough for this accessory. But the idea of the accessory is a "cross necklace-like" item for pre-HM but it's also a material for a bigger melee oriented invincibility accessory. That bigger melee accessory can be something else than the Cross Shield, perhaps i mix it with the dash supporting accessories, such that i get an accessory that grants you invincibility while dashing (while you dash with another accessory) and it deals melee damage.

But i think I'll scrap the invincibility part altogether since stacking both the Cross Necklace and this would be too strong i think.

And you are pushing the "aggro builds" a bit too far with this.

Do you think 2 bonuses for aggro is too much? I was thinking about replacing the invincibility frames with HP regen, like 1HP/s x 300 Aggro.

Lemme just rebind my controls to get a broken omnidirectional dash for free. Also, let's not give incredibly rare enemies a 2% drop.

It's a meme accessory. If you're willing to change your controls to use it, sure! It's just an omnidirectional dash, i think Master Ninja Gear and Shield of Cthulhu are better.
Actually now that i think about it, idk if it would be a good idea to let it be able to dash upwards. Dashing downwards is cool but upwards is like a double jump, which isn't the point of dashing.

Horrible stats and a set bonus that wouldn't even be that good if it affected all projectile types.

Talking about the jester set, what if the set bonus also makes all non piercing arrows and magic stick to enemies, dealing a high DoT? I wanted thios set to focus on "piercing" and "sticking" magic and range weapons, I'll think about this set.

I actually really like this one. Set Bonus probably snowballs too hard, though.

Glad to hear you like it! Since it's just stats, if it's too broken i just need to adjust them, no big deal. It's not like thinking about a new set bonus for the Jester set.

"low armor" but half the set bonus is defensive stats?

half is a huge exaggeration - " You gain Cursed Wings and autojump, increased: jump and flight speed, movement speed, fall speed, increased immunity frames, increased damage, armor penetration, critical strike chance, damage reduction, health regeneration." - the defensive benefits are DR, immunity frames (which wouldn't be that useful to a glass cannon set like this one and i might even remove this) and health regen. Those are 3 out of 12 bonuses.

My idea with this set was to make a very mobile, jumpy and fun to use set, while trading your defense for all that. I was also thinking about making it a generalist set but i think it's better to have a separate generalist set post-plantera.

That's not what a set bonus is, though.

I know, but isn't it cool to be able to use some of these items gimmicky items and not have to lose your set bonus?
Also I personally like the gimmick of keeping the set bonus when you equip a unique armor piece.
And this only works for these unique items. it's not like you can wear the chlorophyte mask and 2 pieces of beetle armor and still ahve the set bonus, no. Just have this be a feature to these unique items.

They already drop Power Cells, if anything just raise that drop rate.

The thing is that the Golem drops the Sun Stone and Eye of the Golem, with so many drops from the Golem it's very tedious to farm these items, even more so in multiplayer when each player would like both of these.
You can argue "multiplayer expert mode everyone gets a bag" yeah but that doesn't change the fact that it's 1 in 7 chance to get just ONE of the accessories, and we wanna get both of the accessories for each player. I just want to farm him less.

Cool buff and helps Star Veil a lot, but at 5% the dodge will just never happen.

Yeah 5% is very low, but i think it's fair since when you combine it with Master Ninja Gear's dodge and Brain of Confusions dodge, you get 3 chances to dodge, which is a lot. The video "Terraria - 1.4 Maximum dodge" by Svings made me reconsider giving it a higher dodge chance, since i don't want to make it easy to chain-dodges one after another. 5% is a 1/20 chance, which is pretty rare, but when using more dodging equipment, it is good enough i think. If it really is too low i can increase it to 8%, which is 1/12,5 chance which is way more often.
