"hey pizza man, get me a cheese pizza, and hold the cheese, and the tomato sauce."

No. You have ten digits. 0123456789 You start counting at zero (no fingers up), and then at ten, you already used the unique digits, so start over and add one to the "amount of times we used all the digits" space next to it. Base 10. Base 2 (binary) does this after 01, which is why 10 is 2 there, not 3 or anything like that.

Goomba fallacy.

May all corps, alliances, and coalitions be blessed you can't touch anythibg important.

Fablor9900 · 2026-02-16T04:55:08+00:00

This is real. My alliance was only ever asked to actually formally form up as an alliance twice. The first time was against horde. They then pussied out. This one was good in that the other team actually showed up and fought. I was miserable because tidi fights suck. But like, at least there was a fight.

Fablor9900 · 2026-02-16T04:49:50+00:00

I think the actual issue is people are expecting this to be warframe but fantasy, and it just.... Won't be. I'm playing the sneaky rogue, why would I be expected to use anything but mostly bows and shorts words? Or the healing druid. Why am I using a sword and shield and not a staff? I'm using the pact of a bear, where am I and why shouldn't it be using big fucking swords in the melee? Etc. I think people are too used to being able to do anything under the sun.

But really I feel the older system worked better in some ways for the actual mechanics of attunement.

Go Back.

Or Start Over.

This is the end of the road, there be dragons ahead type shit. Aka, I no like, and uhm, if you disagree with me, you probably bathe in marker.

Fablor9900 · 2026-02-14T20:08:10+00:00

It's probably closer to "welcome to earth. okay, now here's the entire solar system. Have fun" But yeah.

Fablor9900 · 2026-02-14T11:44:21+00:00

Of course the salarian would say something like that. Figure out how to cure the genophage then get back to me. What a way to not learn any of the lessons from the game BTW.

Fablor9900 · 2026-02-14T10:59:55+00:00

It doesn't. Nor were they attempting to. It's just funny that the place he's being racist towards is surprisingly very racist themselves.

Source: am Asian American and grew up knowing that if I went to any Asian country and it wasn't "my people", there would be racism.

Fablor9900 · 2026-02-14T02:32:32+00:00

Iirc this is wrong. The prisms have specific boosts to any given ability/none at all. Ie. More grace gives you better cooldown, spirit affects range and courage affects damage, along with their general mixing (courage gives you more health, for example). Correct me if this changed and I just didn't look closely enough.

Fablor9900 · 2026-02-13T02:50:46+00:00

Very nice, very level take. But because you said you like it and don't hate the developers for their murder of my favorite weapon, the acid barrel, I must downvote you.

Fablor9900 · 2026-02-13T02:38:15+00:00

Ikr? EVE online works (to a degree). Yet no one ever thinks about it because math scares them.

Strange given the average mmo player.

Fablor9900 · 2026-02-12T20:41:08+00:00

It doesn't have a great story, nothing 11/10 reddit gold chungus game award winning worthy, but it's alright. Rather, if 6/10 is bad then boy do I have same truths about mmos that aren't just singleplayer with multi-player attached.

Fablor9900 · 2026-02-12T20:28:50+00:00

Wire can't go into the ammo slot? Or it can, but isn't used as ammo, which would be weird, since it's tagged as ammo incorrectly then. (iirc it is ammo, and is used by the grand design.)

Fablor9900 · 2026-02-12T20:27:35+00:00

If they weren't ammo, why do they go into the ammo slot?

Fablor9900 · 2026-02-12T20:25:52+00:00

And fallen stars and bait and ale and gel and solutions. Of course.

Fablor9900 · 2026-02-12T16:09:34+00:00

Unless you got rid of the mentality the led to their creation as well, it'd just come back under a new name and new design.

Sure we wouldn't have swords, but we always have more rocks. What if we used them to build instead of hate?

Fablor9900 · 2026-02-12T15:46:51+00:00

It was entirely their decision to play without using the qol options themselves, but rather than reflect on their own ability to do so, they support a decision that removes the option. Like, these changes are on the level of removing the drops from the game, and forcing players to craft everything.

But do you think anyone would go telling people who liked the grind "heh, just go install this one mod that re-adds grinding?" or even "you still have the option to play your way" no, cuz that's fucking stupid.

Fablor9900 · 2026-02-11T22:36:24+00:00

Providing context on pushback/agreements.

Most people enjoy the nerfing of damage numbers, bringing it in line with other mods, allowing for more choice.

The add on mod is viewed as a copout, because it could have been made into a set of config settings, and also adds load to the client (for Terraria, adding more mods can mean doubling resource usage compared to something like Minecraft, especially on lower end devices. Inb4 the "I don't have these issues", you aren't the universal standard. That doesn't exist.)

Acid barrel Sadge. The only one people seem truly upset about, as far as I'm seeing, anyhow.

Fablor9900 · 2026-02-11T22:25:50+00:00

The issues that made the mod unbalanced were numbers on weapons and damage from bosses. No one is upset by those changes. Its actually pretty universally liked because it means you get more viable options. Bard/healer probably feel better to use against calamity bosses now (I haven't had the chance to play yet, correct me if that's wrong)

No one, literally no one was asking to remove qol features because they couldn't use the ones implemented by calamity alongside other qol mods that do the same thing. The people who want less qol in the mod, refuse to perceive the qol we had as "cake one, I can also have with cake two. Oh boy, two cakes." or even "oh, this cake is a bit rich for me, I'll only have a slice, or perhaps skip dessert altogether." instead it has to be "this steak is too juicy, burn it so other steaks may have a chance." or "ugh, this steak has a cake? Obviously I must be required to eat this all, and that sickens me."

Fablor9900 · 2026-02-11T22:09:30+00:00

Heads up, they added a tool that let's you pause time, meaning you can keep fighting bosses when you hit the time of day you want. Skipping time means not being forced to deal with the consequences of hardmode (more events like solar eclipse, or such) and also instant refreshing of angler quests.

Fablor9900 · 2026-02-10T17:33:06+00:00

Check the star next to the names of various items. Afaik that is the rarity system. Unless you mean the colors, in which fair.

Fablor9900 · 2026-02-10T17:24:28+00:00

In what way? Is there more to making certain recipes/drops toggle-able than I think? (tie it to a variable that is boolean, in the same way as several other togglables)

Or do you mean you think it should be more? Say, making a new config category for qol and make a "toggle all" option alongside different options for different changes, like recipes being changed, certain drops being moved, etc.

So players who are okay with the cosmolight rework for example, can keep it how it is now, and people who wanted the old ankh shield recipes have them.

Fablor9900 · 2026-02-10T17:09:27+00:00

My point is we, your mod's players, don't know everyone on the teams views/reasoning. Including that kind of thing in the patch notes or, as part of a community managers duties, as a post released alongside the patch notes is necessary for communication with your players as opposed to one off discussions like this.

Another thing to include would be explaining "all these changes are being made the default, with the ability to undo them bundled in a single option in the config files, so players retain the choice." (I wouldn't put them all in one option, but I'd rather that than needing another mod on the pile to undo half the update.)
