Terraria 6-C Tiering

[EmbalmerMaster9000]

Where did the island-level tiering for the WoF and the other pre-plantera bosses come from?

because the terraria world is about the size of an island.

Do the backgrounds change when the world gets corrupted? Because if I recall, you can see other islands in them, which might give a slight buff to the WoF.

Makes sense, so that means any of the bosses superior to the WoF will obviously have the 6-C scaling.

Does it also account for minibosses to possibly have 6-C due to the amount of hits they can take from the terrarian alone?

 

[Amelia_Lonelyheart]

I'd say any boss (mini or major) after the Wall would likely scale.

If you mean the Islands in the Ocean Biome, they aren't big enough to be worth a tiering, as we can clearly sees trees on them.

I think the current "At least Island level" rating fits best. As the Terraria world is at least the size of an island, but we don't know if it is bigger (Note that it can't be the whole planet, the Merchant mentions "over seas" places, implying Terrarian is an Island, a Country or a Continent)

@Zany Which bosses? The Pumpking and Ice Queen would likely scales to 5-A more than 6-C. Maybeee things like the Martian Sauceflyer or the Pirate Ship could scale to At least 6-C, likely higher. I don't think tough regular enemies like Mothron or whatever to scale however.

 

[Amelia_Lonelyheart]

Ahh, I see. Its been awhile since I played so I must've exaggerated the size in my head.

I never got very far in hard mode so I can't offer much help regarding the scaling of other bosses. Pumpking and Ice Queen being 5-A sound fine though.

 

[Saikou_The_Lewd_King]

I also think that Skeletron and Queen Bee could potentially partially scale to the WoF. "At least (Insert the Eye of Cthulhu's rating here), possibly at most High 7-A" for Skeletron, "Likely at most 6-C" for Queen Bee.

I meant the minibosses like the ice golems, biome mimics, paladins,etc. Otherwise, some of the late-prehardmode bosses could be 6-C due to them being able to contend with the terrarian in molten armor, and possibly High 7-A if they fight the terrarian in shadow/crimson armor.

Well those enters under the "tough regular enemies" in my book, so they probably do not scale.

Like I said, Queen Bee and Skeletron could be scaled, but Eater of World and Eye of Cthulhu are way too early to be scaled ot a mid game boss.

Pirate ship can be 6-C, being that it can harm the terrarian in early, alongside enduring hits. But the martian saucer could be 5-A, considering that it's a post-golem boss that is capable of enduring a large amount of hits from the terra blade (and heavily harming the terrarian in beetle armor).

Makes sense at the least, but wouldn't EoC or EoW be 8-C or higher?

 

[Amelia_Lonelyheart]

EoW is huge, like really huge, maybe High 8-C?

 

[Saikou_The_Lewd_King]

I'm planning to calc the KE of the EoW and King Slime with the lighting speed.

I except Tier 7/High Tier 8 for it.

 

[EmbalmerMaster9000]

Apologies for the extra post here, but would Ocram be 6-C or High 6-C (Considering that it's stronger than the rest of the mechanical bosses)?

 

[Saikou_The_Lewd_King]

Probably the same as Plantera, if it's considered "after" the Mechanical bosses. So At least High 6-C, possibly far higher

 

[EmbalmerMaster9000]

Anyway, decided the tiering for Ocram, being High 6-C due to it exclusively being after the mech bosses. Also, I wondered if any of the post-mech bosses should get a buff to 5-A due to them being capable of taking hits from the Terra Blade. Or, would this be an outlier due to the Terraria not having the Celestial Tower/Moon Lord feat yet?

 

[Saikou_The_Lewd_King]

That's just gameplay mechanic. Any boss can take several hits from end-game weapons, but we don't scale them to 5-A.

Thanks for replying, I shall keep that in note.

 

[MrWarnerTheGreat]

Are there any teir 6 remaining calcs? Or have most of those been deleted or forgotten?

This is a very old thread. I will close it.
