4:41 Every Iban concept art unfortunately got scrapped due to him leaving the team during the infamous dev split. That means no eel devourer of gods for us

Wait, he left?! I didn't know that, he was so good at his arts

[@beeleav]

@@GitGudWO Yeah. It's quite the loss for the mod.

Fun fact, the music originally used for the old Devourer of Gods fight was a song from a game called “Cave Story” titled “Last Battle” remixed by DM DOKURO, before it was changed to the new music!

4:40 I’d like to point out that the concept art on the right wasn’t made by Iban, but by Inanis. It was for the Devourer of Universes, and even had some extra art for Yharon’s future boss variant. (Both artists are no longer apart of the Calamity team, sadly)

[@Scazoid]

I still can't believe Yharon is using the same sprite since its release

[@TheRealWalt]

I was introduced to Calamity mod through DoG through sheer boredom as I was looking through different Terraria wiki articles. I found a link to the Calamity mod's old wiki and saw that it had unique music, so I looked it up on KZbin, and the rest is history.

[@brub1384]

For me it was providence. had me in awe

[@yggdrasil9692]

The music surely does a huge part in the calamity mod.

i saw a playthrough from chippy, i just thought it looked neat

I still remember how fun it was to race the DoG on a world length platform, pelting him with projectile while I engage in the terraria equivalent of a speedster duel

[@Jera2271]

ahhh, I remember the days when Death DoG used to instakill you if you get hit by the head, which was pretty annoying but then I managed to master the ai of the time(was like early to mid-2018). Oh how far it has come, great video as always my dude.

[@sonicundertaleterrariamine5258]

It was that until 1.5

[@asandkittysmatter7574]

The fact that you made this video when shortly after I kill Infernum DoG after 563 attempts is amazing timing.

[@Imf4ke_gd]

can u tell me how hard it is and how fun the boss is from your experience?

[@asandkittysmatter7574]

@@Imf4ke_gd I just beat the infernum today and I would say the bosses are pretty hard but nothing impossible. with each attempt getting me closer and closer to kill the boss. If I would rate the bosses on a fun scale it really depends because I hated some of the and had a lot of fun with others. supreme calamites is pretty hard but also very fun. DoG is very hard and not that fun in my opinion, and yharon was in between. Only the last three bosses and poltergeist I ever really got stuck on and majority of the bosses I could somewhat easily do.

[@overseer9724]

Well another big fact is since 2016 to this day, Devourer of God is still "Perfectly Balance."

[@Gameboy-kl8br]

Would actually love to see the Devourer go from Worm to Wyrm

That either means Germanic dragon or Sea serpent, sooo

Ok wow infernum devourer of gods is on another level compared to other really well designed worm bosses (void leviathan, erebus, etc.)

[@realhydrogenbomb7702]

what mods are those from?

[@exquisicy5429]

it's the worst designed imo (as of the last time i fought it, which was in late 2022) the gimmick of having to ram through every attack and abuse s is not good design. you either cheese the boss with the momentum capacitor or break your fingers spamming dash

[@Spooky90097]

The boss is Terrible. You either run into clouds which was never an issue until you had to ram while flying up. Aswell as the terribly unreadable attacks that give barely warning. Boss is good, the game design is terrible.

[@renarduwu]

Wow, its so good to remember all those sprites, ive been playing terraria since 2011, was my first steam game, and this was also the first terraria mod i played, there was another mod too, obsidian or omnir dont quite remember. Seeing these give me a lot of nostalgia, including the purple destroyer sprite and the edgy dialogue he had before.

[@TheRealWalt]

Calamity mod just so happens to have a reference to the mod you reference in the form of the Omniblade. It's not really a good weapon, especially since it is around Moon Lord when you get it and it doesn't have good range, but it's the thought that counts.

[@Telgin]

​@@TheRealWaltIt also has reference weapons from Avalon mod, another early classic.

[@TheRealWalt]

@Telgin Astrageldon Slime was even a reference. Many, many things are in Calamity that reference many games, most notably Touhou and MGR.

I remember DoG being a post-Golem (?) boss and using the Destroyer theme. This was before Calamity did post-ML content.

[@__8120]

I remember messing around with terraria calamity boss rush and hero mod. I had god mode on and was just killing everything with a super op weapon, just to see the cool designs. *And then I died* The "devourer of gods" lived up to its name and would indeed one shot kill you no matter what even if you were in god mode. Additionally, NPC butcher straight up didn't work, and he even mocked you in chat for it

[@Spooky90097]

I remember that. I wondered why they removed the “YOU CANNOT BUTCHER ME!”

[@__8120]

@@Spooky90097 yeah it was so cool!

[@flameblade3]

There’s a fun little note that the operator from the Alchemist NPC mod gives about the DoG where, if it had not gotten complacent while fighting you, it would have been a much greater threat. And now I like to imagine that the infernum mod upgrade to the DoG is the devourer at its true full power

[@MyraTerrariaOfficial]

Future DoG with golden Auric armor has already been scrapped due to IbanPlays leaving Calamity dev team.

[@GitGudWO]

Yeah I overlooked that part, mb

[@MyraTerrariaOfficial]

@@GitGudWO 98% of new concept designs are gone. Sad reality

[@bruhgod123]

let me guess next update DoG is just gonna be destroyer with slightly more lasers and having a slightly higher quality sprite

[@Lolero]

The Devourer hits close to home for me, he has a special place in my heart because he's the reason why I started playing terraria in the first place many years ago, I found his soundtrack and I immediately fell in love with it which led me to research more about calamity mod and terraria itself until my dad finally agreed to buy it for me, I beat the base game first and made sure to know everything about it before going into calamity, that happened 3 years ago or so, and to this day I've beaten calamity around 4 times and I couldn't be happier being part of the community

[@anwd8646]

I just noticed this, but Infernum’s devourer opens it’s jaws before it charges headfirst at you! Such, small, details, people will hardly ever notice due to trying to avoid the deadly attacks and yet they’re still awesome.

[@user-hg6jq4bo2o]

And it accelerates to dash at player when close enough. A ring also appears briefly to indicate that the boss is start(or ends?) dashing, though the dash is so fast you probably should start avoiding when it opens it's mouth instead of when the ring appears😂😂😂

[@Mantebb]

Till now, the song still gives me goosebump

[@anti-spiral159]

Seeing the community of Calamity, its really sad both the community being so toxic, not only against summoners, but against DM Dokuro and to the present day looking at the mod devs splitting. Crazy times are ahead of us.

[@theexiiedfeiiow4748]

if i saw infernum doggo back in 2017, when I first touched the game, i'd be gaslit into believing that i jumped between timelines

[@metrodas4284]

I honestly love the infernum devourer, but i still hate how much damage the head does even with a full tank build, which is basically almost no room for error

[@LuisAngel-sb8xd]

It's the head, of course it needs to deal max damage. It's not called the DOG for nothing, duh. It'd be better if you complained about the attack design, which is very uninspired outside of the worm movement.

[@ab72_s]

Would love a dragon based DoG, ngl. Though, the worm is iconic, I love the sick concept art of DoG. Maybe the devs add that as a shimmer variant of DoG that you can fight… put the cosmic worm in shimmer to make DoG something different.

[@Diamond-vp9je]

This boss history is problably the most extensive and the best thing I have seen in Terraria. It's amazing that how it started and how it was now. I am glad that I will beable to play this game and actually fight this boss. I hope to see how this mod progress in the future even with all the mistakes that happenend during production. I will keep on watch.

[@nomatyx5789]

Personally, I LOVE the Infernum version of the fight. Making dashing a requirement makes the fight so fast and brutal. You have to play extremely extremely offensively and I love how it looks like you're dancing with it, where it's essentially winding itself around you and you're dashing through it.

[@orikku]

Guess I need to play infernum at some point, I thought it was just a mod that added a malice mode back into the mod, I didn’t know it changed the visuals so much

[@Aniki1337]

I remember when Revengeance mode was still fresh and infinite DoGs spawned because you had to kill 2 of them almost simultaneously

[@mailcs06]

Nohitting Revengeance DoG was super fun, even though he took the most attempts out of any boss I have done. He’s my favorite calamity boss :)

The fact that Universal Collapse was a rushed song and yet is (in my opinion) the greatest DM DOKURO song shows that he is on par with Beethoven and Mozart.

[@pobyds]

When I started playing you had to fight all three Sentinels again between DoG's phases, and his head one-shot you no matter what if you were playing on Death mode

[@stargazer-elite]

I love this boss it really gives the vibe that it’s name gives off it literally consumes gods and I like to think that even gods feared it so when you the player defeat it even after it comes back in a 3rd phase the remaining bosses know your serious on trying to defeat calamity as no other creature had came close to killing it

[@glauberglousger6643]

Interesting is Enternity/Masochist mode (both are different) has a Destroyer that looks like old Devourer of Gods Also there’s a lore accurate mod that allows him to randomly spawn and kill you (lore accurate)

Probably checking GitHub calamity mod releases page along with the TModLoader GitHub releases page too.
