last update 2024 is crazy

maybe let us customize mod weapons!

What about CALAMITY compatibility?

this is genius! will probably upset the balance of vanilla+ mods too much though...

So cool mod, i love melee and magic but dont love range and summon. this mod compatibility this class!

What about mod compatibility?

This mod is really interesting, I'm playing it right now.

there should be an option to tweak the amount of mana that sword projectiles use

I thought I made an exception for ranged/magic weapons using ranged/magic ammo, but let me double check.

Any chance of removing the mana requirement from ranged/magic so it's not double dipping on resource usage with ammo and mana?

or----- make armor interaction toggleable and blacklist/whitelist.

Sorry, the first time I read it, I didn’t see the part about summon.

Similar thing with nebula armor not activating on weapons with an added magic type and stuff like whips or bubble gun not getting the frostburn effect from the frost armor, or whips getting the burn from the fire gauntlet.

Probably fair to make the zenith or vamipre knives not proc the healing from the spectre armor, yeah. If you do something like that though you should add a little bit of text on the weapons that says like "Won't cause healing from spectre armor set." just so it doesn't seem like a bug.

Understandable! It'd just be neat if most of them could benefit properly from Spectre armor's set bonus, like the melee/magic weapons and ranged/magic weapons. I've been really loving the concept of this mod and have been planning a playthrough with my friend, so I'm looking forward to future changes!

I can do that, though I'm not going to apply it to every weapon. Giving the vampire knives more healing from spectre armor, for example, would be too much.

Would it be possible to make the weapons that were originally not magic class, but gained magic damage benefit from the Spectre armor set bonuses?

I noticed that the weapons that were originally magic that gained ranged like the Charged Blaster Cannon still benefits from the set bonus as normal, but the Terra Blade, Eventide and Holy Arrows wouldn't trigger the healing effect or chaser effect from either Spectre set bonuses.

I assume this is because they were originally Melee/Ranged class weapons, so the Spectre set bonus doesn't read them as Magic damage being dealt for its condition.

I think you'd have to ask the developer of Summoner Prefixes about that. My mod doesn't change anything about whip functionality, only the damage class.

I've noticed that it doesn't work well with another mod, Summoner Prefixes. Specifically the "Spritual" prefix. It says that whips with this prefix will be used alongside other whips, but deal 1 damage. The whips won't even swing when used with another whip. Can you see if you can fix this? -A summoner main

What do you mean by nothing for summoner? Minions got the most direct improvements out of everything.

wow, nothing for summoner....

No. It just shows error text

will this work on other moded weapons?

YES I WANTED SMTHN LIKE THIS FOR AGES

would you consider dual class armor sets? I can imagine hallowed armor being more mage-specific while still keeping the class-specialised helmets (because of the magical nature of the armor)

Maybe I missed something, but "Beam Swords", when there are no mana, do not do damage in true melee. Is this intended?

This is a really interesting idea, I'm gonna give it a try.

I didn't really crunch the numbers on how much more damage everything could do. I picked 75% because it makes sense that it can be stronger than normal if you build into both damage classes, but having to do so means missing out on other benefits like defense and mobility accessories, so I thought it was fair.
As for things like zenith being usable on a magic build, yeah, it's probably overpowered, but that's also part of the fun. Now you have more options for how to play, even with mono-class builds. If it ends up being game breaking or overcentralizing, I can always nerf the base damage or something.

This is what I had in my mind for so long it's like a dream come true, Thank you for your hard work and contribute.

would be tough to implement each individual weapon by manually assign them but if the focus is on vanilla-friendly then go ahead I would still continue to play the mod regardless.

In my humble opinion mixing dual classes already make weapon completely broken by it own even if the rule is to reduce estimate damage by 25% for making it less viable for one-trick class but imagine what interaction these weapon would actually does for certain class.
For example easiest one of all imagine you hold Zenith the end-game weapon that already has ridiculous DPS and you're wearing nebula armor which to be fair it give your Zenith less mana cost plus nebula armor set's bonus apply on top of you are able to use both the melee and mage accessories.

This was made with a vanilla-like experience in mind. Even if I automated applying these changes to big content mods, it would likely not work from a game balance perspective.

Good idea but horrible realisation in the future if you can't auto assign these changes to every modded weapon/item/etc

I decided to manually assign every weapon, but I used some pretty basic rules to do so. I think it does make sense to list all the changes, though. Thanks for the suggestion.

It would be nice to have a list of all affected items, or is it just the ones mentioned in the description? btw love the idea, I will try this mod <3

How do you determined what weapon is dual class like for instance does it automatically detect if for example a sword that shoot projectile (beam or whatever) will auto-convert into melee/magic hybrid or you (mod author) need to manually put the stuff to each categories?

yeh what that guy said >:)

Honestly amazing mod now do it for calamity and thorium >:)
