That's crazy lol. Well, no problem, I use the Terraria overhaul only for the "graphical" improvements and ambient sounds, I'll look for alternatives for that for now.

@Katora Noku AFAIK, Terraria overhaul makes enemies disappear when hit by guardian pavises.
I have no idea why!
Katora Noku 12 Oct @ 3:44pm 
Are the Terraria Overhaul mod and this one not compatible? Or is there just some conflicting setting?
DickGamesh 11 Oct @ 9:32pm 
I just saw that calamity isn't compatible. Based

You can totally make cross content by yourself if you wish to!
I'm just personally not interested in creating Calamity content

Wonderhoy 22 Sep @ 9:12am 
it was probably already asked, but is the mod Calamity compatible?
Verveine  [author] 21 Sep @ 11:32am 
I'm sorry, I do not like to add people I do not know on discord/steam
If you want to discuss with me, you can talk here, on the orchid mod server, or DM me directly on discord

Guard charges do naturally regen by default, they just don't regen past 1
Kuchai 21 Sep @ 7:31am 
I love the class so far but I do feel like Pavises need some sort of overhaul or self-sufficiency to make them on par with the other Guardian weapons because despite being the "big" thing highlighted in the video they do feel very clunky.

perhaps if Guard / Slam charges just naturally regen albeit slowly by default or being able to still "slam" with the Pavise with zero charges at the cost of damage, knockback and not having its unique effect proc and/or slams from the shield give some block charges back to facilitate a loop of slams and charges assuming you never wiff them.

Just want to bonk things with shields man.
Mohe®oωψ Ninjα 21 Sep @ 12:57am 
I get that but really terreria is the type of game for me that without something like a wiki or atleast a class progression chart i just dont want to play so maybe someone could atleast update the weapons and accesories for the guardian class and add the new class because until then i probably wont play the mod):
Verveine  [author] 20 Sep @ 4:13am 
the wiki's user driven. you could contribute to it yourself if you really want to see it updated
Mohe®oωψ Ninjα 19 Sep @ 12:36pm 
UPTADE THE WIKI I BEGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG I DONT KNOW HOW TO FIND STUFF AND IF I WANT IT THE MOD IS SO COOL BUT THE WIKI IS SOO AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
Fenrisúlfr 17 Sep @ 5:35pm 
from my experience it doesn't cause conflicts, but it won't scale late game

Im having a problem in my guardian playthrough, where enemies I hit with my shield will just disappear and drop nothing, is there a way I can fix this?
salty bread 12 Sep @ 5:29am 
alright, sounds cool! im excited for the next update, and cant wait to see what you guys have in store! thank you :)
Verveine  [author] 11 Sep @ 4:47pm 
@jebusauriorets
Thank you for the feedback!
Gauntlets and Pavises have kinda been powercrept by the quarterstaves, and recent changes to warhammers
We'll be improving both of these subclasses in the near future
for pavises specifically, we're looking at allowing the player to slightly move them while parrying (rotating around the player, but slow) and charging them like other guardian weapons to either get a free slam, or a free block (if that feels good during testing)
Verveine  [author] 11 Sep @ 4:45pm 
@salty bread
Thank you!
I'd like to finish shapeshifter content before I make a video on it, covering the entire game progression
Regarding the thorium Soul Link, it will likely be discarded as 1.5 releases, adding some transformations to the vanilla game, in which case I should be able to "absorb" some thorium wildshapes and use them as orchid cross content so they still exist in some form(I am in good terms, and friend with the thorium dev team)
jebusauriorets 11 Sep @ 2:45pm 
I've been playing guardian class in master mode multiplayer (about 3+ hours) with orchid + thorium and so far the early game feels great especially with thorium weapons. I will probably make a comment about the overall experience once me and my friends finish the playthrough,

I just wanted to make one personal comment about the class, and it could just be my skill issue but I feel like enemies being able to pass through your shield before activating parry, or the parry locking your shield in place ruins the fantasy of the class a bit. (happens a lot to me with tiny enemies).

Would you consider some sort of accesory that makes it so switching to a pavise automatically activates a parry (with a cooldown of course)? Alternatively, I think pavises could use some type of curved hitbox to deal with flying or underground enemies. Just my opinion though, and it's limited to pre Brain/eater of worlds for now.
salty bread 11 Sep @ 1:44pm 
hey, just finished watching your videos on the guardian class
orchid, even outside the custom classes, is a really fun play and pairs well with thorium (because of the compatibility) but also with mods like consolaria, heartbeattaria, and rise of ages
i feel as though all of the mods compliment each other really nicely to deliver what is practically a vanilla++ experience, and it seamlessly fits into the game
orchid mod team did amazing, and i remember my first time using a custom class weapon, a shapeshifter weapon, which astounded me with how creative it was
speaking of which, are there going to be any future videos about progress regarding hardmode content for shapeshifter or any potential compatibility things between that class and thorium's transformations w/ soul link?
im super invested, orchid still holds up well today and is probably one of the best tmods out there, and i actually prefer it over something like calamity
you guys are awesome, thanks for this amazing mod
Verveine  [author] 10 Sep @ 6:21pm 
DR granted by orchid sources indeed has less value than the vanilla one, but we'll also be more generous with it when we give some. It simply doens't work the same way
for instance, obtaining 100% orchid DR will always reduce the "remaining" incoming damage by 50%.
200% orchid DR will reduce it by 75% (100% = 50% + 100 = 50% of the remaining 50% = 25%)
unsure if that's any clear? I'm sorry lol
My point is, I don't think it needs to be adressed, we just need to be generous with it, knowing that it won't cause major issues with the vanilla one :)

@Mullic Rav
Thank you for the feedback!

Gauntlets will definitely receive some love in the near future!
We've been thinking about having them give half a guard charge back on successful charged slam hits, leading to the parry - slam - parry - slam rotation you mentioned
(They should never give a full charge, as you'd be able to stay inside stationary enemies like plantera forever by alternating left and right clicks, effectively cheesing a ton of threats with no skill involved)
Mullic Rav 10 Sep @ 11:18am 
Decided to test out the Guardian class, after 120 hours of master mode with content to just past the moon lord with Thorium & Calamity, the short take on the class is; A bit rough, but still very enjoyable. For more specific details, a couple things I would make note are would be:

Gauntlets; As much as I like them, they are a bit lacking. The MOST I could offer is make attacks that successfully hit (Charge attacks and slam charge uses) give a guard charge, giving a sort of rhythm to punching & parrying while still having a use for Warhammers & Standards as a back up for incase you miss an attack or parry.

Damage Reduction; I've seen the recent video that addresses this, although I do agree with the Idea, I do think in it's current state it's a bit strict on how much it gives the player, think it just needs a minor tweak so the diminishing returns aren't quite as aggressive.

Overall; good class, hope to see more in the future, as it's currently my favored class for Terraria.

It's ok Mon Ami. Thank you for your time!😁
Verveine  [author] 10 Sep @ 7:08am 
Orchid does not currently implement mod calls, sorry
Jarl Dwarlin 10 Sep @ 6:19am 
Last question. I have a mod that add classes and some of them are complementary to others mods.

Does Orchid has Mod Calls? If yes, where could I get it?
Jarl Dwarlin 10 Sep @ 6:09am 
Thanks guys! 😁
Verveine  [author] 10 Sep @ 5:49am 
gambler and alchemist content can be enabled in the config.
It's very outdated, though
Fenrisúlfr 10 Sep @ 5:44am 
Gambler and Alchemist should still have content up to wall of flesh
Jarl Dwarlin 10 Sep @ 5:43am 
Orchid Wiki maybe is from an older version. The only classes available now is the Guardian and the Shapeshifter, right?

No Gambler or Alchemist?

@verveine oh yeah i definitely felt the powercreep when i got my hands on a quarterstave LMAO, got the wicked fang when i was summoning eater of worlds and i went from losing the fight to completely destroying the boss when i switched to it fdhsjkfshkj

excited to see what y'all got cooking tho! i've enjoyed a lot of additions to the mod i've seen so far, and even if it needs a bit of work i still think guardian is a really cool class that'll really shine when it's polished!
Verveine  [author] 9 Sep @ 5:53pm 
@Pawst Gauntlets really got powercreeped by quarterstaves lol
Pavises need some love too, and we're thinking about ways to make them better ;)
Pawst 9 Sep @ 11:07am 
tried out this mod for the guardian class and it's really fun so far! a lot of it's additions are really cool! I do wish that gauntlets were a bit more supported as a subclass, though I know these were recent additions so that'll probably be addressed in the future. if you ever add a kamen rider reference with them my life is yours btw
Trxj1k 8 Sep @ 5:51pm 
Guardian is the BEST CLASS in ALL of Tmod
