Have to agree with you on that one. The attacks are based on where and how you move, though I still find them to be way too hard.Secondly I found the Polarities boss fight far too complex and difficult, the boss log tells me I did 22 attempts without beating it and I'm honestly no closer to understanding it than when I started. For most of the attacks dodging them feels more like it comes down to luck than any actual skill on my part. If by some miracle I survive until they start firing the death rays I just instantly die to those, since they seem to track my movement perfectly except on rare occasions when I luck out and one of them fires somewhere I'm not. I like to think I'm decent at the game - the only other boss that took me multiple tries to beat was Eclipxie (my favourite in this mod!), and I've played terraria for nearly 1000 hours.
This is just my personal experience though, maybe I just suck at this fight in particular!
it's called "blowing your expectations" and breaking the normal of circle strafing and running away lol.Love the mod! One of the most creative and in detail mods out there for science nerds like me. I have a couple of pieces of feedback though based on my personal experience playing on expert mode as a melee character. Firstly - the caliper blades are really OP when combined with any modded training dummy, since you can farm the spinning blades fairly easily and this results in 100,000s of DPS and easy cheesing of events and boss fights. This could probably also be achieved using a slime statue and bird machine. I'd say nerf the duration of the blades and reduce the number that can exist at any one time.

You don't have to talk to me like I'm a child. I understand the boss is designed to be different. All I'm saying is that for me, after 20+ tries, I was no closer than when I started. And I don't think I'm alone in that.it's called "blowing your expectations" and breaking the normal of circle strafing and running away lol.
You definitely aren't. I watched Cataclysmic's video in its entirety and I'm still struggling.You don't have to talk to me like I'm a child. I understand the boss is designed to be different.

Turing posted this in the discord, he suggests backing up to this: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/724088498272993282/879851193667575838/Polarities.tmodUh.. The latest update in the Mod Browser says it fixes the mod from disappearing in the Mod List, yet when I updated it, it actually disappears, and after updating it, I can't find it in both Mod Browser and Mod List, which is ironic, based on what the update log in the description said. Once reloading the mods, it reappeared in Mod Browser (which supposed to be in ModList), tried downloading it again, same thing happens, strange...
Luckily I had the previous version on back-up, so I just reverted it back.
Is there anything new to it other than a fix? What's his discord on this mod anyways? I wanna check what happenedTuring posted this in the discord, he suggests backing up to this: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/724088498272993282/879851193667575838/Polarities.tmod
I don't know how well they would work together. Probably not very, mixing content mods usually doesn't work that well. The mod does have some worldgen (the salt and limestone caves) so I would recommend making a new world for it.@turingcomplete30 Quick question as I'm a little new to content mods. I'm currently using Thorium and was wondering would Polarities work well with it?
My second question is, I couldn't find it mentioned anywhere, but once Polarities is downloaded, would I have to start a brand new world for it? Thanks in advance
The version that uploaded to the browser got corrupted for some reason, should be fixed now.I updated this mod but now my mod is gone help plz fix I want to play this cool mod
