Thread will be updated after "The Glade" is releasedThey really need this added. It is a really good idea for an alt hallow. The ammunition I really like, because we have homing bullets, so why not arrows! Bouncing and leaving around clouds that damage people sounds like it would be really fun to use.
EDIT: Now that we have 1.3, I would love to see what you come up with if you make the whimsy mimic. That is, of course, if you want to update this thread.
Oooh the glade! Sounds interesting.Thread will be updated after "The Glade" is released
EVERYTHING IS AMAZING! Only one thing though, I think the fang should be something other than the light shard (like a pet summoning item with a lower chance of dropping, like 1%) because the dao of pow has a light shard and a dark shard on it, not a fang. Also for the Crimson, there are dark mummies like the corruption, so I recommend just sticking with the light mummies for the light shard, not hyenas. Every thing else, though, is truly magnificent. 10/10.The Whimsy is an alternate Hallow biome inspired by folklore, magic, and fairy tales. I intentionally made The Whimsy as a sister-biome to the Hallow; they are thematically similar but overall are still very different. Hopefully this allows you to enjoy The Whimsy more so. Like all of my biome suggestions, you can expect a lot of pop culture references and a hidden goodie or two providing insight for the next biome suggestion. Welcome to The Whimsy!

It was by choice that I purposely replaced mummies. So it wouldn't make sense to revert that decision just for another's preference. Sorry.EVERYTHING IS AMAZING!

oh ok, sorry.It was by choice that I purposely replaced mummies. So it wouldn't make sense to revert that decision just for another's preference. Sorry.
You can still get Light Shards from Ghouls though
Do you mean The Infestation? It's not supposed to counter The Infestation (or anything else really).It's a good idea, but...
I think a direct counterpart to the Infection would be better. This doesn't seem to oppose it in any way.
I see what you mean, but I feel it rather breaks the pattern of counter part biomes and popular counter part biome suggestions. For example, corruption vs hallow is light vs dark, crimson vs cyber is life vs no life, contagion vs covert is rotten death vs bountiful life, and confection vs sensation is sweet vs spicy.... and then here's this one stand alone biome. I highly recommend you create an evil counterpart to this, probably one that represents darker and more serious myths/stories.Do you mean The Infestation?

It is a stand alone alternate, still standing thematically as "light" in opposition to "dark".

there is already a counter to The Infestation in the works.
Yep. That would be the one.is it the glowing/flashing green leaf button thing in your signature? (6th from the left)
No offense, but....I have no intention (at the moment) of introducing a counter to The Whimsy.
However, the trend of countering pairings has not gone unnoticed by me -- and there is already a counter to The Infestation in the works.
No offense taken, since it's not hypocritical at all.No offense, but....
You do realize that's kinda hypocritical, right?
It would be hypocritical of me if I believed counters were wrong, and yet still decided to make 2 countering biomes.hypocrticial
1.
of the nature of hypocrisy, or pretense of having virtues, beliefs, principles, etc., that one does not actually possess
2.
possessing the characteristics of hypocrisy
I do.No offense taken, since it's not hypocritical at all.
It would be hypocritical of me if I believed counters were wrong, and yet still decided to make 2 countering biomes.
But that's not the case. I like counters (my two faves are The Contagion and The Covert). And I think they're alright to provide, if that's your deal.
I am merely stating, that an alternate of the Hallow or Corruption does not necessitate the need for a counter alternate, as that is not something the game specifically outlines as a requirement to the "light" and "dark" biomes. So making a counter for the Whimsy is unnecessary because the suggestion/biome does not require a counter to be accepted as a game device or a suggestion. It's perfectly acceptable to suggest a Hallow/Corruption alt without having to provide a counter. You just don't see it done often.
Counters are a trend and an expectation. Neither of which dictates that counters be provided.
And just because I choose to keep The Whimsy as a standalone alt suggestion, does not bar me from making a counter biome to any of my suggestions in the future.
I imagine you understand now.
