Cooldown Rack

From Calamity Mod Wiki
Jump to navigation Jump to search

The Cooldown Rack is a mechanic added by the Calamity Mod which mirrors 'cooldown' type debuffs such as Potion Sickness and Chaos State, or flat out replaces them with versions that no longer take up space in the player's Buff/Debuff Rack, such as the Dodge Cooldown. This is most commonly used for the abundance of custom cooldowns that some of Calamity's most powerful items have, such as Auric Tesla armor.

The Cooldown Rack is positioned directly underneath the player's Buff/Debuff Rack, which is located in the upper left hand corner of the screen below the player's hotbar.

An example of the Cooldown Rack dynamically adjusting its position below the player's buffs, as well as examples of different types of cooldowns.

Universal Cooldowns

Universal Cooldowns have a variety of sources, typically Vanilla items or mechanics. They are commonly tied to a Vanilla debuff, such as Potion Sickness or Chaos State, though Lifesteal Cooldown is not.

Dodge Cooldown is unique in that it is used to prevent the activation of any other Dodges, despite Vanilla typically separating these chances between items. For example, Cerebral Mindtrick works as a cooldown for Brain of Confusion, and Black Belt and its upgrades have no buff attribute whatsoever. Dodge Cooldown being universal helps get around this in order to prevent dodge stacking, due to the number of additional dodges that are obtainable.

Unique Cooldowns

Unique Cooldowns are those typically only shared between two items, or not at all, often a single line of items that upgrade into each other. These shared cooldowns prevent the stacking of these powerful effects.

Notes

  • The Cooldown Rack's display can be made compact or disabled in the Configuration options, however this does not change its affect on gameplay.
  • Although Chaos State and Potion Sickness have cooldown icons on the Cooldown Rack, they remain as debuffs which take up buff slots. Their appearing on the Cooldown Rack can be toggled in the configuration options.
  • Several of the effects on the Cooldown Rack also have sound effects paired with them.
