The Missing Link - Summoner

Description
The Missing Link - Summoner mod aims to fix two stages of progression for the summoner class:
1. Starting point - all summoner weapons require you to first be able to kill for resources, not anymore!
2. Post-Plantera - Spooky Armor is the only crafted yellow rarity armor except Turtle that doesn't have a variant, but Turtle is Melee that also have Bettle armor.

Item's added:

Pre-Underground Ice:
Sapphire Watcher Staff - an early game summon equivalent/weaker Finch Staff, crafted with Tin/Copper, Sapphires and Lenses.
Silky Whip - a No killing required whip, slightly weaker than the Leather Whip, crafted with Iron/Lead, Silk and Wood.
after getting those you can easily scale the depths of underground ice to continue progression like any other class.

Post-Plantera:
Spooky Crown - a healmet varian to th spooky armor, sacrificing quite a bit of damage for sentry slots and Minion Lifesteal.
Tamer's Gauntlet - a combination accessory for the Power Glove to give it a summoner variant that apply the size boost to whips.
those should give you enough choice to change your playstyle around the moonlord fight and other post-Plantera content

Post-Moonlord:
The Ulta Whip - a Meme Whip that is designed to be broken AF while still maintaining the vanilla feel.
the echo damage is similar to the firecracker's effect but is single target and is WAY bigger.

Update 1.02
Buffed the Range of Silky whip 2->3.

Update 1.03
Fixed some bugs.

Update 1.04.3
Back again after constant TModLoader Changes to Whip Code(DamageClass.Summon to DamageClass.SummonMeleeSpeed)
Rewriting the Whip code based on the TModLoader ExampleWhip and reimplementing the Collision and CutTiles functions(may be redundent in the future).

Update 1.05
Source Since last update is now available at https://github.com/Dimanari/GetToTheSummons
ported to 1.4.4
hopefully nothing is broken.

Also, Tamer Gauntlet works, but has no tooltip. Are you going to update the mod some day ?

Seems like the Wrathful Optic Staff doesn't work

That is better

I wouldn't have updated the mod if it wasn't fun. Just no longer have passion for making content.
Just can't get myself to make more content.(issues from other mod)
Though vanilla changes like slime and finch staff recipes, same for leather whip, might still be in store for the mod.
Crit overhaul was something I played around with but it's a big code change if I want everything to fit properly and scale CR the correct way(additive stacking with vanilla).

damn dude hope you get better. No need to update the mod any further :) focus on what you love

fuck my life, 2 hours of sleep the past 3 days, schedule so busted, but I managed to remember to port and fix the mod.
I would likely not be adding more content unless someone makes a suggestion or request for something specific.
I'm playing other games now.(Cosmoteer is awesome)

I'm really sorry, but I've been mostly away from Terraria for the past very long time.
I'll try to remember and create an updated version, I accidentally broke the original source code because I confused it with my playground environemt.
I can salvage most of the 1.4.4 code from stuff I made for floral fauna, I'll scale down to only the original content so I can release it soon.(maybe tommorow at noon)

I know its been a year, but when are you porting this mod into 1.4.4? I've been kinda struggling in my early pre hm progression of thorium cause I'm unable to acquire a finch staff and there are no early whips besides the leather whip for me to use :/
