Mystic Library - Update 3 - The biggest one so far

It was about time I put myself down to work in order to make some important changes in this map. Some are WAY overdue, but are here at last. One of the most abused weapons is finally nerfed as well, and a new weapon is getting introduced. Let’s have a look at the table of contents.

*DV= Damage Value

Adjustments

Celestial Runner (summoner)

Ballista Rod

I moderately fixed the damage values in this weapon so it can be more of a choice when thinking what to build.

1 15 20
2 35 40
3 70 80

7 230 230
8 330 300
9 465 480

Stardust Dragon Staff

I increased its damage in many early tiers and reduced in last tiers, which also prevents some abusable early point farming while also having its knockback value removed for the first 5 tiers

Nerfs

Aerial Bane

  • If you guessed this was it from reading the intro, then nicely done, you are either an abuser or have plenty of knowledge about maps.

  • Specifically for this chest from now on, each tier will give 20 Wooden Arrows instead of 50 like the other bow chests.

Buffs

This category is quite big, grab a snack.

Tome of Infinite Wisdom

From personal experience, this weapon doesn’t feel very strong at specific parts of the game, so here is an attempt to make it a more lovely choice for mages because knowledge always wins.

Weapon change

This is probably the biggest excitement of this update, the first weapon change of the map. Some might say “Unfortunately it isn’t a hardmode bow” or something like that, but hey, it’s a start for a better setup in the future. Perhaps this could add some more spice in the class and map.

Removed weapon: Molten Fury

New weapon: The Bee’s Knees

Tier DV Cost
0 4 2500
1 8 5000
2 15 12500
3 30 25000

7 250 162000
8 350 250000
9 450 355000

These are all the changes for now, I hope most of you will enjoy these (not talking to you Aerial Bane + Dual Wield abusers). Go ahead, try them out and let me know if anything is wrong, bad, good or generally whatever. Have fun!

:frowning:

I do agree that it was way too unbalanced to oneshot all mobs though lol

dual bane is still very busted
it still does a truckload of damage, and gives more points per enemy
though its nice that it cant be used solo, the ammo chest still gives well enough arrows to keep it going, and bane is a very low-effort farming weapon
maybe change its kb, so that enemies dont get knocked into the air after the first shot

with nerf to Aerial bane it’s easier to get more points with it and ubgrade it quickly so pretty much it’ll stay the same
