What Calamity Mod Class Should You Choose? (2024) 

If you disagree with my opinion you are wrong (comment why I'm wrong atleast) if you agree you gotta like and subscribe tho

summon damage is actually fucking insane i was genuinely confused at how long people took fighting infernum devourer since my whole ass fight according to boss checklist my battle took 1 minute and 52 seconds to finish.

I agree ranger is kinda boring since you can only do so much with a gun/bow/crossbow/laser… But the calamity overhaul mod does alter a variety of weapons but especially the ranged weapons.

I would say Mage is batter than Rogue but other than that I agree

I am still going to play whatever class I feel at each stage of the game lol. I constantly have a full build for every class for all stages of the game.

Cnnt agree more on the ranger class. Just finished my playthrough as a ranger, but switched classes in the very late game because i couldnt take down scalamitas as a ranger, the damage is just way to low and the ranger auric armor ist just inferior to others

i just started calamity and have no idea what's going on. most calamity videos are outdated so your a life saver😅

Ive always played summoner in every mod just because its nice to have a companion while playing (i even mained it before it was cool (before whips))

I’m gonna do my first infernum playthrough soon since I’m almost done with my first calamity playthrough, this video helped a lot, thanks!

I have recently played as every single one of these classes. In my opinion ranged was definitely the worst. Damage was the lowest. Defense wasn't the greatest and most accessories toward endgame seemed to be adding things you need to concentrate toward doing like the quiver of nihility. Then it was rougue the defense in that class wasnt good. And i felt that the damage was pretty good toward the end but that was because you had to have accesories to help the stealth strikes do more. Then it was mage. The defense was all right and the damage was amazing for the time you were attacking and the accessories actually gave stats like good defense and good damage and extra mana and other stuff like that. Then its summon. It has terrible defense but I've been playing the game a long time so that wasn't much of a problem for me personally. The damage is great and focusing on dodging can help build up adrenaline to put in that extra bit of damage. And you wouldn't have to worry about getting in every last hit on the boss while your adrenaline is draining because your minions are already attacking the boss as well as they can. Then its melle. There isnt much to say about this one. Your defense is high your damage is high and closer to the end of the game your weapons lose the one thing that makes melle challenging and that is the short range of swords.

I like how the example image for swords is a rogue weapon

Also, defense is useless endgame as there are too many DOT debuffs that bosses inflict later on

As a ranger main, i just find myself doing significantly less damage than my peers playing other classes. In my opinion, the fact that most of its weapons dont seek, have a big hit radius, or even do aoe, is what sets it a line back from the other classes. Dare i even say that ranger is ultimately the class with the highest skill ceiling to an otherwise low reward, since you're mostly having to focus on targeting a fast boss while having to dodge every single projectile to get your only source of good damage through adrenaline.

i personally have done both ranger and melee playthroughs on expert and imo melee was more painful around pre providence, maybe thats cause i was just only using the hammers, but i personally had more fun playing on ranger and feel that it was easier, i feel like you still have high defense and can focus more on dodging attacks, but melee got really fun after DoG and was more fun than ranger after DoG

hey man, I'm playing summoner in a world with a friend who's playing true melee and we just beat the exo mechs. I was looking for some advice. Even though summoner is supposed to have the best dps, my friend has more than me. On a dummy, I get around 180k-240k dps, but my friend gets like 300k-350k (I can get 450k with Universe Splitter but I don't count that and neither did he). I know a dummy isn't really always an accurate way to measure your dps in a boss battle, but in boss battles his dps is higher too (forgot the exact numbers). I've tried pretty much tried all combinations of all recommended summoner gear I've seen for this stage of the game, and landed on my current one for highest dps (ok, maybe not entirely true because I saved some accessory slots so that I can actually stay alive lol). All of my reforges are for DPS too. Is there something I'm missing? Here's my current gear in case you're not actually too lazy to read it: - Full demonshade armor - Asgardian Aegis - Papyrus Scarab (crazy to still have it this late I know but genuinely didn't find a replacement that gave me higher dps) - Nucleogenesis - Profaned Soul Artifact - Huntress' Buckler - Angelic Alliance - Dark Sun Ring The Summons I use are: - Mirror of Kalandra (all 5 pieces) - Endogenesis (the one that shoots ice spikes seems to have the highest dps on single targets) - Metastasis - Endo Hydra Staff (4) - Cadaverous Cannon (3) My Buffs are: - Ultima Cake (From mod AlchemistNPC Lite) - Universal Combination (From mod AlchemistNPC Lite) (they give me +2 minion slots and +1 sentry iirc) I hope youtube doesn't flag this as spam and delete it lol. Also if you really did read it all thanks I really appreciate it lol.

Ah yes.. Melee Mage creature from the depths and summoner!

I just finished a summoner playthrough that took me only like 20 hours of playtime (minus boss rush) and I thought it was very fun, it was my first time playing summoner at all and compared to my previous rogue playthrough a month ago at 60 hours was very fast. I could even feel myself improving a lot on dodging because of the glass cannon implication of the class, overall very good class.

Rogue really picks up after plantera, and honestly becomes #1 pretty much the entire way post-moonlord

Just finished a master eternity/death mode playthrough as summoner and I strongly dislike it. First: whips take away the main benefit of the class which is to focus on dodging. And you have to use them unless you want suboptimal damage. Second: having a loadout of several different summons (which is necessary later on for best damage) is horrible when you have to resummon them every single time you die. Third: screen clutter. Its better or worse at different stages but my god does it get bad. I dont care how good the damage is I'll never play it again.

nice video dude, helped me out quite a bit

thanks juto I just finished clamity mod for the first time as Melee and I didn't know what class to play with now Thanks to you I think the next time I play it will be Rouge seems "interesting"

I just started the Calamity mod recently. It doesn't sound like mage isn't doing anything I'm not already used to, so I'll stick with that. I enjoy it. Plus that staff looks sick.

I just realize solarflare and stardust armor have nipple on the thumbnails 😂

I think you did ranger dirt lmao. It's not as broken as melee, but its still pretty alright

Just got done with my Summoner playthrough, this video came in perfect lol gonna go with Rogue

No matter what class I use. I always use beenades to kill WoF(Works in Death-Master).

I just use whatever until hardmode then switch to summoner. I am NOT doing summoner pre WOF

Rogue is my favorite because I like the class could get killed easily but the reward for dodging attacks is a massive amount of dps. Summoner a close second because of the same reason but somewhat less dps.

Me only looking at the boss fights in the background: wow, uh YH RIGHT MAGE HELL YEAH...

Hmmm, yes. Waiter! Waiter! A thorium one now!!

I totally agree on Ranger. I did my first play through with it, but stopped post mech due to a lack of fun interesting items. I’m currently on rouge for my second play through and it feels way better. Although I feel like using stealth strikes aren’t really worth it until you’re like post golem. Is that just me, or is it more of a general consensus?

Ranger is my favorite calamity class

Imo summoner is 1st then mage then rogue then melee then ranged

Good informative video, job well done man 😎

I see people all the time complaining that Rogue is too weak and then you look at their gameplay and at best they use stealth stikes once when they have adrenaline. Like no shit sherlock the class is weak, you're not using the main feature of it...

hehe, I use hunter class from the metroid mod :)

What mod is the re-skinned desert scourge from? Or did it recently get a resprite?

Idk how rogue has 3d highest armor Currently playing w my summoner friend, and he outclasses me at dps (he deals like 1.5x more) and has HIGHER ARMOR because of warding accessories, which i can't affor bc i need +8% stealth at everything. We're at pre-moonlord rn, maybe later rogue will shine but rn he's weak af

Clearly people realise that seraphim is not a meele wepon but they dont talk about it

Not quite sure why but I cannot bring myself to enjoy the melee class (I main mage if that's relevant)

Currently on my first playthrough ever, which I'm doing with some friends and they forced me to play ranger AND it is on infernum. Honestly almost quit the game

Just finished Calamity mod, right now is 1:32 am i should go to sleep but i must say mage is my favorite class cuz all the variety of weapons it has, anyway i must drink my 3847373724th mana potion today i promise i will quit someday.

But isn't it depends which class you are master of?

Mage is the strongest class by FAR and ranger is the weakest class by FAR. SCal in master revengeance before the AI changes was easy on like every class but BRUTAL on ranger

i dont like rogue personally (i spam attacks and i am too impatient to wait for stealth)

stacking warding on melee actually makes an insane difference tbh

I am on a mage playthrough now, and I was really surprised in the way the mage shreds it's enemys once you get in hardmone, all 3 mech bosses were a walk in the park

Rogue if you have skill

I want a terraria or Minecraft RU-vidr class and you can use flame spells by negative comments the worst the comment the higher the flame, eventually unlocking explosive language in hard mode and a subscriber system to flesh out summoner class 🎉

You right bro

Summoner

What is the name of the game?

Melee on too

Can't wait to try the american freedom class🦅🦅🦅!

Calamity despises Summoner. Vanilla Terraria has more summoner content

You fotgot about true melee :(
