i suck at dodging so i like this

does this mod remove potion sickness??? I dont have it after this???

Btw still works and even works with fargos dlc (at least from what I’ve played so far (king slime)) so if youre planning to play the dlc too then :)

if you're accepting suggestions i think it'd be cool to have an option where defense damage still exists but is just heavily nerfed (regens like 3x faster, can only affect up to 75% of your defense, and can't affect damage reduction since normally it is able to for some reason)

2024/10/18 Calamity 2.0.4.004, it still works.

@ุReshy Yes. Does it not work in the latest version? I haven't checked on it in a while, but whenever Calamity updates and breaks it, I try to fix it.

Is this still being maintained?

@the Child of Night It's a mechanic in the Calamity Mod where certain enemies and bosses when they hit you will temporarily decrease your defense. Which is a stupid mechanic as there doesn't need to be a penalty to being hit because being hit is the penalty. It was added seemingly so the Calamity team didn't have to balance their strong bosses or high defense armors and items. At least in my opinion. I hate the mechanic so I made a mod to remove it.

I'm sorry, but what is Defense damage? this is my first time hearing that term. to me it sounds like it is one of two possibilities:
>it is a mechanic that uses the users defense as a means to calculate the users attack or damage output,
>or it uses the Target's defense to do the same thing, witch one sounds like a cool gimmick while the other sounds like it was intended to one tap stuff, which would be a good reason to use this mod.
so what is it exactly?

Might be that the mechanism defense damage is operating by changed

Just fought Astrum Astreus with the same exact problem. I could only get him down to about 15% when I tried him before this mod, and with it installed, I get stomped at the same exact point.

The defense number isn't being reduced, so the mod is definitely doing *something*, but its not affecting damage for some reason.

Just downloaded the mod and it appears to work. Empress of Light was reducing my armor by 100 before the mod, and not reducing it now.

But I can't figure out why the damage I'm taking is still the same. I have 286 armor. Empress of Light should only be able to scratch me. But certain attacks are dealing 70 damage to me now, same as before adding the mod (yes, its active).

Master + Revengeance mode btw.

Np and thanks👍

Alright, I have that version too and the most recent version of this mod. I will try and see if it is specifically the Exo Mechs and Calamitas causing the issue. Thanks for the response.

I’ll have to try to see if any of my other mods are causing it not to work when I can get back to playing the game. I’m using version 2.0.4.002 of calamity, the most recent version of this addon, and I tested with several of the exo mechs’ and Calamitas’ attacks, both of which still cause defense damage.

@SirLagsALot At this current moment I am unable to recreate it not working. Could you describe the situation a bit more? What version of Calamity are you using, what version of the this mod are you using, is it all sources of defense damage, or just some of them that are not working? Those questions will go a long way into helping me figure out why it isn't working for you.

I will investigate and attempt to get a patch going.

It doesn’t seem to work anymore.

thank you

im gonna kiss you

Perfect, exactly what I was looking for. Defense damage by some special and very well-telegraphed attacks I could tolerate, but a delicate touch breaking your uber-badass armor is preposterous~

@Denver Thank you. That helps. As it turns out, my own Calamity Mod was not updated and thus it still worked on my side. I'll start working on a fix.

Cal 2.0.3.8 and No Defense Damage 1.2

@Denver it doesn't matter what world you are in and the integrity of tmodloader's files also doesn't need to be taken into account here. What version of the defense damage mod and the Calamity mod do you have?

I'm doing a different world rn in multiplayer so I can't check, but since I verify file integrity often (almost always updates your mods for you), it should be the newest, and I have logged in multiple times since then

@Denver what version of the defense damage removal mod do you have and what version of calamity do you have?

I'm taking defense damage again, first time playing after the december update

@Cap'n Crunch As far as I can tell, it does work in December stable. I've got it enabled and Calamity, and I don't take defense damage. What exactly is the issue you are running into?

Any chance you could get make it work for the December stable release?

I think he may deserve awards

Thanks you!

This man deserves many awards... Thank you...

Thanks you are amazing

thanks for update

hells ye. thanks m8.

Thank you so much!

To all of you, that are asking for a 1.4.4 port:


👍

1.4.4 update would be nice

Update please

update to 1.4.4 please

yeah ilike it this mod great a 1.4.4

Is this Mod going to be Updated for 1.4.4?

i dont know who's the genius mind thought of " oh defense damage sounds good, it should balance the game "

at least add an option to disable it

i know they do it in their own time , i appreciate that

I guess Defense damage makes it so if you tank you die faster which ruins the point of even tanking in the first place and it weakens true melee Because if you get hit you lose defense which you need to not die

Great mod! It actually got me interested in Calamity again.. And I completely agree.. The punishment for taking damage is TAKING DAMAGE.. Not losing defense from my "regenerative armor"

I completely agree.

@Scrumpyknight Why? The mod corrects the Calamity mod's mistake in adding defense damage. A mechanic that punishes you for getting hit. But wait a minute, isn't that what taking damage is? The punishment for getting hit should be taking damage, not decreasing your own stats.

why

Hi, I was wondering if you have a version of your mod for Calamity 2.0.1.1, that would really help me out!

Thank you so much for making this mod!
