The spawn-creation one included the hellstone brick, yes, along with the dungeon walls, which are also brick. Further testing would include both raw and brick forms~

An interesting, if somewhat hellish (heh) to set up, test would be to stone-brick a large area around one of those hell buildings, to see if hellstone brick backwall prevents spawning, particularly when turned into a room. 99.9% sure it doesn't, but it'd be an interesting thing to see, anyway.

Re: dungeon brick, though, does it require just a certain amount of dungeon brick (not backwall, just the brick) in an area to trigger dungeon spawning, or do you have a make a "room" of dungeon wall + backwall? If the latter, anyone know how large th'minimum size is, at least roughly? E: I had a decent-ish sized undergound room (Maybe 15x15 or so?) made solely from dungeon material, but nothing was showing up inside

... or just, yanno', build underground. Preferably past the dirt backwall. It's a pretty effective anti-goblin tactic.

But yeah, screw goblins. I've soloed 4-5 armies so far, no boots. Harpoons out th'arse, but those are bloody worthless if you've got a flail of any sort. I've mostly resigned myself to never having boots. Balloon and cloud helps fill that void in my heart.

I have never heard Friggin considered a bad word. Quite the opposite, it's a substitute for saying bad words :V

Same here.
I do not understand why.. more and more people think that they are actual bad words?

Um, mostly because what frig means. Friggin' is frigging, or, to frig. It kinda' is a bad word, just most folks don't bother to find out what it means.

With a 'rang, just two four-tile high walls on either side of my dude, with platforms between th'top two tiles, to keep black slimes out. Then I just fire th'rang upwards until the bugs stop moving.

For flails, what I showed here.

Then it's just a matter of turning autoclicker on and waiting.

Heh, watched th'interview. Regardless of the eventual gameplay, it looked absolutely incredible. There's also no way in god's hell my computer would run it, which is strangely hilarious to me. Go technology, go! Outpace my pocketbook!

I can't even see attempting to kill a human player in actual PvP with explosives Unless grenades are something special and I haven't noticed it yet, bombs and dynamite, even (especially, to a degree) spammed all over the place, are just tremendously easy to avoid.

Nix only sorta has to aim, really, especially if you've got meteor shot. Just turn on autoclicker and kinda' vaguely point in the target's direction. They'll die soon enough, unless they've also got a 'nix/s.cannon and are returning the favor (with greater accuracy).

The rawr-I-have-no-aim weapons are probably th'flails, 'rangs, and magic missile/flamelash. The first two have big hitboxes, so they're harder to dodge, and the second you just kinda' run your cursor over the target But actual bullets move considerably faster than everything else, so 'nix probably wins again. Th'nix is just ridiculous, really.

Grapple and vine jump are indeed about the only way to actually move quickly in a small space, though, I'll give yeh that. I guess necro and 4x amulet could get some decent speed going, but...

Flintlock pistol, musket, blue-book-water-thingy. Laser pistol. Keep forgetting the laser pistol is actually called 'space gun'

As for the armor, cobalt is apparently more-or-less shadow+meteorite, in terms of set bonus. It's about even in terms of tier to hellstone, though more annoying to get.
