I'm running into an issue of banner buffs suddenly disabling when the banners are in personal storage(piggy bank). They'll work for a couple minutes then the buff vanishes.

@Belge I had a feeling something was up, I told everyone as much Some people are just impatient. Glad your back though! Thanks for the update too! (Mod worked fine for me regardless of the update)

Hey everyone,

I’m really sorry for not keeping this mod up to date. A lot has been going on since 2022, and honestly, I can’t even remember the last time I played Terraria. 😞

This mod includes features that are quite difficult to maintain with ongoing Calamity updates. Every time Calamity adds new mobs or changes mob names, I need to update the mod accordingly. The longer time passes, the more bugs are likely to appear. To find these bugs myself, I’d have to manually test the mod with every mob in both vanilla Terraria and Calamity, which is quite a challenge.

I've just updated the mod so it can be used.
If you’re playing with this mod, please let me know about any bugs you come across, better through the Forum [forums.terraria.org] or email studiokomagiko@gmail.com. That way, I can fix them much faster. Thanks for your support!

@Keplerk Have you done it yet? This looks like a gem, but if it's incompatible with what I'm running? Well..... :/

tModLoader v2025.1.3.1

好家伙，万魂幡

I think i'll just unpack the mod and do the proper updates, it will be easier than wait for author to take action or such.

@Neobunny the mod still works, so until its no longer compatible with the current or future versions of tmodloader, it shouldn't say "discontinued". Also, Belge probably has irl things they are dealing with too. It could be any reason, we will never know unless they feel the need to tell us.

It would be nice if you'd put this as discontinued if you don't plan to do anything else with this.

This bug is still present :( Is the author still active on the mod development ?

Hey I'm just letting you know that the issue I mentioned before regarding the banner buff disappearing occasionally (commonly due to dying) is still persistent in the latest versions of tmodloader and the mod. Hopefully you can patch this in the future.

How to disable "Defusal Mark" effect? I am already disable "Lure" buff, but enemies still spawning with enormous rate.

Can you add certain storage on point number 4 above?
I want the effect still applies when banners are stored in Banner Box from Quality of Terraria mod .

This mod just broke today or yesterday, likely from a tmodloader update. Enemies don't do damage when I have a banner in my inventory. I just walk right through them.

can you make this a thing so it includes all researched banners

is there any chance that this could be made to search the banner box from the quality of life mod? it is a whole lot of work going through it over and over to sort out which banners go into which upgrade.

Also it might be a good idea to send a chat message when the spawn rate items are enabled/disabled for better clarity.

Seems like the banner and trophy buffs disappear and don't reappear at times on death. I've had to take out the items of my inv/bank and drop / pick them back up all at once for the buff to come back. This is the 1.4.4 version for reference.

@PlayfulPiano if you set the multiplier to 4 that means it gives you a 400% increase (aka x4). Each multiplier adds 100% per multiplier (Multiplier of 10 = 1000% increase). Hope this helps

Oh one last question: Is the multipliers additive or multiplicative? Example, if the multiplier is set to 4, does that mean +400% (i.e. 5x) or 4x?

Good ideas = future update

Oh and one other idea: Could it be possible to add a toggle that overrides all boost behaviors and only has it mimic vanilla banner multipliers?
i.e. as per the terraria wiki with only one max banner/trophy:
- 1.5x damage in normal mode
- 2x damage in expert/master mode
- 0.75x damage taken in normal mode
- 0.5x damage taken in expert mode
- 1.1x damage to ooa enemies in normal mode
- 1.2x damage to ooa enemies in expert mode
- 0.95x damage taken from ooa enemies in normal mode
- 0.9x damage taken from ooa enemies in expert/master mode.

Might it be possible to also backport the new toggle for 1.4.3 as well?
And do you know if it's possible to showcase the boost mechanic on non-combined trophy items, or even potentially mention what the current boost is based on the item stack tooltip? (e.g. if you have the config set to 20 for 4x, then if you have a stack of 5 it'll say the current boost in the tooltip "Currently gives a 2x boost", assuming the 4x is additive to the base 1x)

And yes you are totally correct)

@PlayfulPiano, Great idea, I can add that option to the config

So to understand this correctly, there are two separate boosts in this mod: The one from having multiple of the same banner in your inventory (up to 18 for max stats with default settings), and the multiplier that's preset based on crafted banner combinations (which is *always* 18 for "The Banner" and "The Trophy"). Is this correct?

If so, what is the possibility to add an option to allow for crafted banner combinations to not have any added multiplier, so the player has to get (in default settings) 18 of the banner and 18 of the trophy for the maximum effect?

❤️

The fix is up. Enjoy!

Oh, yes. I reproduced that bug. Fix is on the way

After opening the mod, the damage caused by the player and the enemy defense effect become doubled, for example, 15 damage Amethyst Staff attack 6 defense zombies can deal 24 damage. Master Mode.Modlist:Ultimate Banner Merging;cheat sheet.

@Belge no problem, I'm glad I was able to help you :)

@RedLink1029, It was holding back tear xD

Ultimate Banner Merging is ported to Terraria 1.4.4!
Thank you to all who waited for it.
Special thanks to LtAppleJuice who made a big impact on that update's existence ❤️.

For any bugs feel free to contact me anywhere.

@Belge That sir is a square xD I don't know what that's supposed to be :3

@RedLink1029, 🥹

Yes, I'd love to see an update :3 I wanna use one of my favorite mods again!

Someone ? we are 7k subscribers :D

Wow, I am so happy someone uses my mod. It is now on the way to be ported. Thanks for notifying me

update to 1.4.4 please

Will this mod be receiving a 1.4.4 update?

@Truelle It all depends. Bosses (and sometimes other NPCs) tend to have more unique behavior and coding methods. I have to take into account all these possibilities, maybe even hardcode these enemies one by one. If I will have time, I would try to do that.

@RedLink1029 Yes, no problem, I'll wait

@Truelle I can't imagine how the coding works in the mod, that would be something Belge would be better suited for talking about. But more than likely they will probably look into the matter whenever they have the time.

@RedLink1029 I thought that a banner is a banner and a trophy is a trophy, so regardless of whether it's from a mod or not, it would work. It's not easy to make the connection between a banner/trophy and a npc/boss ?

@Belge Your very welcome, I love your mod and I thought I'd share my knowledge of it to those who needed it xD

@Truelle I'm not sure how many mods are compatible with this mod (I'm pretty sure calamity mod works), but if Belge does indeed get back into the modding game, I'm sure there will be compatibility updates someday.

On the other hand, as much as it seems to work for modded npc but for modded bosses not :(
I tried with the Trojan Squirrel from Fargo's Mod and it didn't work.

@RedLink1029 Thanks for your assistance, I really appreciate that)
I might return to this mod soon😄

@RedLink1029 Thanks for the precision !

@Truelle Yes, 3x forest banner equals 9x blue slime banner. If you want it better than blue slime get 4x or more forest banners. But either way they stack, so you can have both 10x blue slime banners AND ?x forest banners and the effect still stacks.

@RedLink1029 Yes, a Forest Banner has a 3x multiplier, so 10x Forest Banner are obviously better than 10x Slime Banner xD
But, if the N+1 banner of Forest Banner has a multiplier of 3x for example, the final multiplier is 3 * 3 so 9x ? And therefore equal to 9 Slime Banner ?

@Truelle 1x forest banner is just 1 of every banner that created it (plus a small bonus I think). But a 10x forest banner is better than 10x blue slime banners if thats what your basicly asking xD
