Silva or God Slayer? (calamity btw)

[The Lemon]

Just crafted full silva armor. I don't know if the god slayer is better though, the wiki recommends both. If you could tell me that'd be great!

Ps: I'm a throwing class

[Shadow_Actual]

IIRC, Silva has better stats, but God Slayer brings you back from the dead once per minute and hurts anyone who hits you. I'd say go for whichever one fits your playstyle the best, at least until you can craft the Auric Tesla armour.

I see. You know, I'm currently struggling with taking down Yharon myself, do you have any advice regarding a good accessory layout and things to keep in mind during the fight?

well first things first, you'll need both of the elysian accessories (the elysian aegis and tracers). They boost your speed so you can dodge his fast attacks. Homing weapons are crucial so you can get around without aiming. Another thing to keep in mind is that the fire tornadoes don't do damage for a few seconds after they appear. This means that you can move through them if they appeared in the way. Lastly, you need to continue dashing midair. He has a basic charging ai so you have to be unpredictable in your movements, especially when he enters his invisible phase. I hope you're able to do it!

Hmm. I'll try that, then. Any thoughts on a good weapon to use? I... used to have the Galaxia and Devil's Devastation, but I seem to have... misplaced them, somehow. Later, I tried the Alluvion, which... didn't work either, although I got pretty close once.

And don't say the Soul Edge, I'm on an old install that doesn't include it.

Well the best thing for this is the scourge of the cosmos! A personal favorite, with tons of dps and homing capabilities! While I did use nanotech with mine, I'm pretty sure it should work with whatever class you're using. If you want to be extra careful, you could pair it with the empyrean knives for extra healing. Plus the silva armor affect adds healing orbs with all projectiles, so you should have it in the bag!

...right, remember what I said about using an old install? None of those weapons had been implemented yet when I got the mod, and I never got around to updating it. Also, the Silva armour is not available until you have defeated Yharon once, which I have yet to do.

How do you check a mod's version number anyway?

Depends. If you're using tmodloader, it pretty much just says the version in the title of the mod. That being said, you just need to install the latest version. Also, if you haven't defeated his first stage yet, I'd reccomend whatever cosmolite weapon you can make. I used exocutioner's blade for my first time.

The issue with that is that I don't like some of the things they've done with the latest version.

On second thought, I'm using version 1.2.2.007.

Unfortunately I can't provide tips on the earlier versions because I downloaded the mod rather recently. If you change your mind and you want to download the newer version, you should go to the mod browser and search calamity. It should give you the newest version. If that doesn't work, the only other thing I can think of is if you have an outdated tmodloader.

Yeah, I know. As I said, the problem isn't that I can't update, the problem is that I don't want to because I don't like what they're doing with the later versions.

Still, thanks for your help.

Well the version you said in your earlier edit is my version, so if you don't have the stuff I don't know what's wrong.

But if you really are using an older version, I hope you have the old polterghast theme! I prefer it much over the newer one

...that's odd. I downloaded the mod two years ago, and it literally wasn't implemented back then. I don't understand how you can have the same version number if your was downloaded later.

And I don't know about the Poltergeist theme, I think I've only ever had the one that DM Dokuro marked as being official.

Are you absolutely sure that the items are not in your version? Like, have you gone out and tried to get them?

They're not on the crafting list, so I'd say so. Like, I take the Cosmilite Bars to the Guide, and the items not on that list.

Ok so I think I get it, your mods are updating themselves and showing the version that they are, but without reloading the mods it still functions like the old one. So again, you could stay with your version or reload it to get the newer one. If you don't mind me asking I'd like to know what newer changes you don't like
