Gyrusens+ [v1.8.6]

"The jyin have become more than a pestilence, they have evolved into one of the most, if not the most devastating force gyrusens have ever encountered. Four generations of evolution have made them stronger and much more adaptive, which is why we need to strike, before it's too late."

- Anonymous, GSF.​

Eiloh Starbounders! As promised, the halloween update has finally release, and boy do we have so much for you in stock!

Additions:

+ Jyin Planet:

A brand new planet, a brand new threat! The Jyinku planet is a planet that houses a unique biome, house to the mutative living virus that is the Jyin. This planet is extremely dangerous as it only appears from Tier 7+, as well as it contains a highly corrosive rain that cannot be blocked by normal means! Of course, high risks, high rewards! The Jyin planet contains all ores available, in very abundant amounts! Tread very carefully, as no evil corrosive biome is complete without...

+ Jyin Monsters

The Jyin, scourge and bane of the gyrusens, inhabit the planets corrupted by them. They can alter and adapt to a multitude of climates and take on various shapes, so be careful! The deeper you delve into their home, the more difficult things are going to be...

+ New Armor sets!
New armor sets have been developed and found for the sole purpose of facing the Jyin and drive them out of the universe!

Note: The Voidum set has been rebalanced to compensate for these new sets, and will now take the role of Tank/Melee. Additionally, it has been given Voidum Radiation status, which will cause an on-contact multiplicative damage the longer the enemy remains affected by it along with armor reduction.​

+ Radiant Armor set (Gunner)

The Radiant Armor set is a special kind of armor that only ever few have heard of. The suit grants various buffs, however most noticeably is the Radiant Step buff, which upon falling from a certain height, you engulf yourself in bright-blue flames, and any that comes in contact with it will be dealt armor-ignoring damage!
*The Radiant Armor set is obtained through searching their recipes the Sleepy Dimension, and crafted in the Gyrusenic Altar.

Additionally, 3 "Special" weapons have been made official as part of this set!

+ Seething Ouron Lance: A Spear/Gun with high damage, with Broadsword capabilities with incredible knockback. An excellent tool for keep-away strategies.
+ Drilling Ouron Bow: A powerful bow that will shine the way, whether through empty space, or through enemies.
+ Instilling Ouron Buster: A high-caliber Buster that will annihilate with vehemency.​

+ Corruptor Armor Set (Hybrid)

The Corruptor armor set is an unholy fusion of metal and Jyin flesh, using their own elements to combat against them! The set in all includes buffs against status effects, such as poison and tar, however most of all it can withstand the corrosive rains of the Jyin planet, with Jyin Burn Immunity!

Alongside the new Corruptor set, there's also a new weapon set to go alongside it!

+ Javelin of the Corruptor: A javelin that throws out infinite phantasms of itself. It flies with ghostly appearance, and is not affected by gravity.
+ Knife of the Corruptor: A knife that splits into 5 ethereal daggers, which fly in a cone-shaped trajectory.
+ Staff of the Corruptor: A staff that summons a small obsidian obelisk, creating horrendous images and pulsating crushing gravity fields in a large area.​

+ Special Armor-themed Backitems!
Special aesthetic back items can be bought at Kraego'ne, for each of the three sets (Voidum, Radiant, Corruptor)! Stock on some cash and get them while they're in stock!

+ Second branches for main guns!
Taking similar concept to the Buster, I've included new branches for the remaining other 3 guns!

+ GSF Pulse Rifle: The alternate branch to the Assault Rifle, this gun shoots an excessively quick beam that, to the naked eye, it might as well be continuous!
+ GSF Bow: The alternate branch to the Sniper, this energy bow is exceptionally good for both hunting AND sniping!
+ GSF Drone Console: The alternate branch to the Cannon, this console will summon beams of energy raining from the sky! Aim high!​

+ Jyinku-based followup missions!
Followup missions have been added in addition to the Jyin arc! You can activate these by either completing the Vending Machine quest or by simply picking up an Ouron Coin!

+ Witch's Broom Tech Mount, Halloween Special Only!
For the rest of this month and November, there's going to be a special tech mount, in which you can fly on a magic broom at crazy speeds at absolutely NO ENERY COST! The tech will appear as soon as you redeem the Gyrusen Data Patch: for those that already have, you will simply need to go into Admin mode, and enter "/aicommand gyrmainquest" (without the quotes, of course), and it should appear in your tech library!


Fixes:

+/- Tweaked & Rebalanced various items:
So many items got tweaked and rebalanced, it's way too much to simply put on this list! However something noteworthy is that the Buster line's itemID has been renamed, so unfortunately you will get a PGI from the old one. I do apologize for this!

+/- Fixed Pink Rouki not showing up:
Fixed the lil bugger not appearing. Sorry about that!

+/- Tweaked Respawn animation:
Messed with the respawn animation files so now it doesn't hang forever on your naked character, and passes by a little quicker.

+/- Fixed recipes for Tier 1-4 Armors:
Thanks to the guys at the discussion board, we were able to point out certain inconsistencies in the recipe files. Basic ores have been removed from the crafting recipes and replaced with more appropriate materials to avoid getting stuck.

+/- Changed GSF Base into Biome-specific:
The GSF Base has received some small tweaks and now special variations will spawn in specific biomes, each with their own unique material treasures. These now ONLY spawn in Tundra, Jungle, Scorched, Volcanic, and Jyinku biomes!

+/- Tweaked GSF Base loot tables:
Loot and Treasure tables have been modified (and nerfed) to accommodate for this new biome-specific change.

+/- Fixed GSF Base merchants:
Snatched a little bug on the Merchants that would disallow players to buy and sell items from that. Fixed up now!

+/- Tweaked Microdungeon Mapping & Spawnrate:
Once more, thanks to the guys at the discussion board we found out that some of the spawnrate files had changed, and made the appropriate changes! Also messed with the mappings of them to help increase their sweetspot chance of spawning.

+/- Changed Long Shirts & Socks to color paramameters:
Made a quick swap to reduce the amount of files from these two items, and now they will use Color Parameters to swap between colors! Unfotunately, this means that any Long Shirt or Hip-high socks that you have will result in a PGI! You can re-obtain any of these items at the Clothier Merchant!

+/- Gsf Drone Console now craftable:
Much like the previous update said, the GSF Drone console is now craftable and no longer obtainable through Dimension loot tables.

+/- Voidum Armor less RNG-based + Sprite tweak:
Some hard thought came into this one, and decided to change how you can obtain this set: now, instead of having to find the recipes through the Voidum Dimension, you will learn all three Stable items through the Stability Orb sold by Kraego'ne, whom will ALSO craft them, so make sure you have all the proper items before delving to find Kraego'ne! Additionally, the sprites for the set have been prettied up some.

+/- Tweaked Random Dimension loot chances:
Increased the chances on both the Sleepy and Sky dimension just a tad, as to not make the hunt for the Radiant set too obnoxious; now there's a 1 in 10 chances for a blueprint (on Sleepy) or for a Radiant Weapon (in Sky) to appear in any of the loot chests!

+/- Fixed Backthruster on ship:
A rogue backthruster has been fixed, and now works as intended!


Removals:

- Removed some obsolete/duplicate files:
I've removed some obsolete, old, left-over, or simply unwanted files from the modpack due to alot of changes, as well as cleanup!

----

Thanks for sticking by guys, this mod has grown quite some since I started nearly 2 years ago, and I must simply thank you all for being here and supporting me with your feedback and criticism. While the Jyin Arc of the mod isn't complete, it's starting to feel like the final chapter of it all!

Perhaps, sometime soon, something more dangerous will come along... for now, stay prepared! And as always...

Have a good one! Happy Halloween, everybody!
