Would you ever considered making unique staffs for the aquamarine and pearl staff in thorium mod?

im pretty sure mod compatibility is already perfect

or... (thinking about AC's comment and just as a general thought) possibly one could have both the vanilla versions, and these altered versions... just in case to help mod compatibility. maybe combo the original staff with the same large gem to upgrade it... that would maybe make them being boosted like they are also make some sense, and allow a bit more play in your effects.

eyy thanks for at least hearing me out, appreciated that...
well the ultrabright torch and other torches is what you may call understandable, but considering the hardmode magic weapons, the diamond staff and also the sapphire staff just makes them something you will get around pre or post mech. and the feeling about how accessible it is early game is what kinda messes up with the progression. makes them out of place that i cant use it, but hey if its that minor of a problem, i can't sweat that much, just take it or leave it scenario

i will be honest, i have not used that staff too much, not generally a shotgunner type, tho it did surprise me that the copper based staff had like no... zappy nature to it haha, though i guess that may be because you made the thunder zapper first

is the amethyst staff glitch still the damage thing? or something new?
infinitetech Mar 10, 2024 @ 7:03pm 
oo glad ya like the idea! yeah, i guess playing around with it first is probably the best option for deciding how you want it balanced. i mean, heck, just a torch (or the better variants) can already let you world scan almost 50 blocks down if you super click them on a spot. then you just map check to see if anything showed. there are even better options, but considering how easy that one is to get... well... light stuff is not exactly gated nor rare

I will check about the idea of a gem staff which combines the 6 or 7 main ones
As for the Diamond Staff, I'll see what I decide to do about it.

In the mean time I need to get the fix out for Amethyst Staff
infinitetech Mar 10, 2024 @ 5:28pm 
honestly, there are already a ton of items that give better wall check lighting already, its not worth changing it, and it gives a fairly unique slot in tactics that it covers, since its one of the few items to still do damage on the other side.

the diamond staff could just be an xray hack now, please limit its capability to pass through blocks, thanks

could you maybe add something which i thought always should have been in the game?: the gem cluster/prismatic gem staff, made by fusing all the other staffs (and maybe rainbow blocks? but probably not) into one, maybe even a "false" version (shoots out each effect separately) (maybe hardmode) and a true version (maybe late hard mode upgrade) that shoots a projectile that has all of the previous versions' pros and none of the cons? just a thought. it always felt like each gem item line (staff, hook, lightsaber, torch, and so on) should have a rainbow glittery upgraded super version that gets the benefits of having them all at once.

Really cool mod concept, but it could use some tweaking, some of the staves (especially the amethyst staff) do way too much dmg
KireLeag  [author] Dec 31, 2023 @ 4:46pm 
No, but please make sure that it is not another mod that is increasing the amethyst staff damage by a lot
Landen Dec 30, 2023 @ 3:15pm 
is the amethyst staff meant to do 30 damage lul
Kaptain Kebaggis Sep 17, 2023 @ 1:38pm 
@swag My thoughts exactly

Why do you need a world arena to fight king slime

very cool mod, and the ideas are very original, now using this mod i will have to consider early game which staff i want to use, rather than just craft the one with the highest damage
KireLeag  [author] Aug 27, 2023 @ 12:20am 
Should be fixed now
