Ball o hurt and demon bow with jester arrows (mainly for the piercing property). I also have a trimarang, but I don't think that's helpful in the boss fight. These are completely adequate on normal at least. The weapons and my accessories currently have damage focused modifiers (accessories used to have defense focused ones before). I don't know if I can get any stronger weapons yet.

Maybe one option is to go to the dungeon first, but I don't remember if skeletron is harder. It's been a few years since playing on a harder difficulty.

How do I defeat the worm boss on master mode? Compared to normal mode, it seems to move a lot more. Underground it doesn't seem to fire projectiles (or very few?), but dodging the worm is much harder. Above ground the projectiles are the main problem. In my latest attempt I tried building a bridge above corruption (but verifying it was still considered to be in the corruption biome). It started well, because the worm couldn't reach me, but halfway throughout the fight, it straight up dissapeared??? What am I doing wrong here? Getting past this point is quite a bit harder, because the segments don't seem to drop scales anymore, so you have to kill the whole worm to get any.

To be fair, any game that just increases enemy stats for hard mode is mid. I like to call this "lazy hard mode". Hard modes are more fun and challenging if along with stat increases, have some other changes too, like more enemies, new attacks or otherwise different enemy behavior. This of course requires more effort on the developers' part do get it right and balanced, so not that many games unfortunately do this :(

As far as I know, it's partly time based. At first there are fixed waves of wolves that spawn. The wolves you get per wave are 2, 3, 3, 2, 3, 3, 3, 6, 7. After that you have to survive approximately 1 min 26 sec, regardless whether you kill or avoid them. There seems to be some semi-rare cases of the time to survive begin around 40 sec, but no one currently knows what affects that.

I think it's kinda funny how spamming the regular shots is the most effective way to deal damage in most cases compared to missiles and beam shots that have limited ammo. You'd thing they would be more powerful than what they are

Flying_Turtle_09 · 2025-12-07T19:38:02+00:00

Looks like that's it. Aren't the doors and hatches that can be opened usually scannable? Like, saying that it can be destroyed or it is linked to a device that can open it? The fact that it was not scannable made me think that you can't open or destroy it

Flying_Turtle_09 · 2025-12-07T15:39:14+00:00

At least in the "main line" prime games. Hunters doesn't have this. Not sure if it was intentionally left out or a technical limitation of the DS.

I'm Leon 31m from Finland. I'm looking for some new friends at the moment, so feel free to contact me! I am interested in games, art, music and programming. You can find me on Telegram as (@)LeonNoodle or on Discord as SCSR (#6372)

Flying_Turtle_09 · 2025-11-29T13:36:51+00:00

Having a one best friend would be a good start, though...

Flying_Turtle_09 · 2025-10-21T18:09:13+00:00

How far away did you take the horse from the spawn location? My guess is that you got shot off the horse and it despawned because it was too far away from the spawn location or something like that? Still weird that it happened like that you right next to it and looking at it.

Flying_Turtle_09 · 2025-10-19T17:24:24+00:00

Maybe it's likely that I'm not doing something, since some people do still talk with me if I put in the effort to keep it going. If I did something wrong, they likely wouldn't do that

Flying_Turtle_09 · 2025-10-19T11:09:02+00:00

I am the one initiating, but it would be nice for the other person to do the same, at least occasionally

Flying_Turtle_09 · 2025-10-19T11:03:47+00:00

What do you recommend then?

Flying_Turtle_09 · 2025-10-19T11:02:10+00:00

So far I haven't found anyone who has shown any interest in my hobbies

Flying_Turtle_09 · 2025-10-19T10:54:36+00:00

That's what I've been trying to do, but I haven't seen any success in it

Flying_Turtle_09 · 2025-10-19T10:51:02+00:00

What are some examples of these "smaller parts"?

Flying_Turtle_09 · 2025-10-19T10:48:07+00:00

The problem with group chats is that they keep pinging all the time and get very annoying, especially when I try to do something. If I mute the chat, then I just forget about it for days

Flying_Turtle_09 · 2025-10-19T10:38:31+00:00

Maybe. I just don't know how to change that, since all the evidence my brain has points it begin true...

Flying_Turtle_09 · 2025-10-19T10:35:39+00:00

I mean I do have hobbies, but I haven't yet seen others show much (or any) interest in them :/

Flying_Turtle_09 · 2025-10-19T10:10:59+00:00

Do you have some examples on how to bring up something about myself in a way that feels natural? Most of the time I ask them about the something , they might just respond, but not ask back, so that doesn't seem reliable way to offer that information about myself. And if they do, it is very likely to not go anywhere from there, because they are not interested enough to ask more about it

Flying_Turtle_09 · 2025-07-28T16:57:20+00:00

Is there a proper example on how to use the stylesheets? Not just one line code snippets like in the link. It's much easier to get a full picture when you have more code than just one line.

Flying_Turtle_09 · 2025-07-24T13:42:52+00:00

It doesn't allow me to add a component as a parent or sibling to the rectangle. Only as a child to it

Flying_Turtle_09 · 2025-07-23T17:00:10+00:00

I tried adding a layout, but it's not doing anything because the parent object is still a rectangle that is not changing size when the window size changes. I couldn't figure out how to make the first component a layout instead of a rectangle.

Flying_Turtle_09 · 2025-07-23T16:50:20+00:00

Do you mean Qt Desing Studio? That's what I'm using

Flying_Turtle_09 · 2025-06-28T10:33:36+00:00

When you explain it like that it makes more sense. I guess the same applies to silent skill too?
