Weapons & Equip Pumpkin Tools

[SzGamer227]

Why do we need these? Because Cactus gets tools for one thing, but more importantly because of the wordplay opportunities.

These are all balanced around Gold equipment in power, since under ordinary circumstances they require you to defeat a boss in order to obtain.

That's it for the suggestion. Feedback is appreciated!

You had far too much fun with the naming didn't you?

Anyways, I would deck it down to around silver, because I don't think Halloween players should get that much of an advantage. Also EoC isn't that hard to kill, even in wood armor.

Szgamer, I have noticed you make a lot of suggestions, and they are all great, I think one of yours is gonna make it into the game, btw make sure that pumpkin pickaxe can't break Ebonstone. I'm not sure if it can.

Takes a nightmare pick to break ebonstone. (NM pick = 65% pickaxe power.)

actually, one of his suggestions did make it into the game.

Lom2 thanks, I wasn't sure.

Someone's been on a thread making spree, huh? Anyway, +1 Support!

 

[Anthony the boss]

+1 support here too!

 

[divebat]

Cool idea! Id love to see more. Seems balanced.

Those puns carved a smile into my face.

@SzGamer227 Aren't these a bit too OP?

Limit natural growth of Pumpkins during the Halloween event to worlds in which at least one boss has been defeated, and viola, all of the balance issues magically disappear.

Agreed.
Those puns though...

Balanced against Gold - but when Halloween hits, it's unfair.

Meh, so your saying that they should nerf the christmas present loot too? Candy cane sword does higher damage than platinum, and heck, shadewood/ebonwood is just as good as iron. So I don’t see a problem.

 

[The Ohmega Blue]

Support, but what about a bow? All pre hard mode materials have em

 

[Pumpking]

I support, because of these reasons:

• Amazing punny names
• Balanced
• Pumpkin = Pumpking

 

[Anthony the boss]

Hahaha nice pumpking. But shouldn't there be a bow? In pumpkin tools? Other than that still support!

Let me repeat myself: natural growth ONLY in worlds in which at least one boss has been defeated. Yes, during the Halloween event. Are we clear?

I sense hostility. Anyway, not really...
