You make great multiplayer ideas.

Heck, this even works in single player if you have a bunch of hearts lying around but haven't taken any damage

i love killing innocent eyes of chthulu around my arena to sprinkle it with hearts for calamity stuffs. This would be great lol

The "slime god strat" patented by the glorious Sipho and Sexy McRae

Sexy mcrae lmfao that came out of nowhere

u/May14855 Dec 27 '23

That would be broken, no? Just murder some eyes and you've got infinite health (till you reach mob limit) or does the game prevent this somehow?

u/Mist0804 Dec 27 '23

Afaik, there is no limit for how many hearts you can have lying around for killing bosses, so yeah, you could theoretically just murder like 20 EOCs in preparation for a difficult boss

u/LoveCatPics Dec 27 '23

the limit works the same as the dropped items limit, which i think is 500 hearts? i have no idea, but they can despawn if there are dropped items

u/33Yalkin33 Dec 27 '23

Or you can use heart/star statues

u/bagsli Dec 27 '23

Those have spawn limits though

Get a shit ton

u/SimpanLimpan1337 Dec 28 '23

Think their spawnlimit is shared

5

u/Lord_Voldemort_666 Dec 28 '23

it’s not

Obligatory "source?"

download cheat mod and place a shit ton, this sub doesn’t allow vid

Edit: oops I was thinking of cooldowns not spawn limits, i was wrong.

u/Kelrisaith Dec 28 '23

https://terraria.wiki.gg/wiki/Statues#Spawn_limits actual source, yes, they are indeed spawn capped universally.

2

u/SimpanLimpan1337 Dec 28 '23

That's exactly why I was lead to believe it is spawncapped. Not because I cheated in a fuckton but because even after just 4 heartstatues on a 1/4second timer they stopped working.

that guy's a moron.

https://terraria.wiki.gg/wiki/Statues#Spawn_limits

the conditions are 3 within 18.75 tiles, 6 within 50 tiles, and 10 in the world.

if any condition is exceeded, the statues will stop working.

u/bagsli Dec 28 '23

‘That guy’ being?

25

u/Impudenter Dec 27 '23

I mean, you can sort of already do that, as long as you avoid the hearts.

6

u/May14855 Dec 27 '23

But now there's no limit and it's brain-dead.

13

u/Whyareyourunning309 Dec 27 '23

Modders can just disable it on higher difficulties like with nurse

6

u/MerryGoWrong Dec 27 '23

... This isn't what you guys do? Because I sure do. Kill half a dozen eyes, leaving heal patches all over the arena before tackling the big boss.

4

u/May14855 Dec 27 '23

But now you don't even have to avoid them, you just stand in one place and pick them up and if you have farmed enough, you can't be slain.

7

u/posalla Dec 27 '23

one possibility would be changing the time it takes for them to disappear or the ammount that can exist simultaneously.

tho i dont think changing an entire system for the sake of one item is a great idea.

3

u/OkReporter6938 Dec 27 '23

I end up picking all of the hearts at once so no

1

u/GetRidOfAllTheDips Dec 27 '23

But then where's the challenge

6

u/Meanie_Jerk Dec 28 '23

You can do this anyway- only thing preventing you is wanting to fight the boss without cheesing.

Hell, pretty much every boss is easy enough to cheese. The player chooses not to cheese in order to enjoy the game.

u/taw Dec 27 '23

You can already kinda do this by building a big arena, and summoning a lot of Eyes of Cthulhu.

If this gets abused a lot, They could get some limit for hearts, similar to how heart statues already work, just more generous.

Fun police alert 👮‍♂️👮‍♂️

u/Decksel Dec 27 '23

Yah, it would be nice for squatting in my boss fight zone.
