[wraith swallow]

It is the purple chests in hell, they need a shadow key from the dungeon to be unlocked, one key can open all chests.

[stoic maple]

[warped shadow]

[stoic maple]

and a charm

[wraith swallow]

Well it is the end of pre-hardmode.

[stoic maple]

it's like the 8th time I am repeating that

[stoic maple]

and i said i got nothing 😭

[paper spruce]

break more pots

or also open shadow chests

also which difficulty ?

[wraith swallow]

Maybe the real pots were the friends we made along the way.

[stoic maple]

just normal

[mint fog]

is there anything good about a solar eclipse pre plantera

[stoic maple]

i got some potions at home

imma go back down

[wraith swallow]

You can obtain Death Sickle (after all mechs) which is a ok melee for plantera, also Moon Stone from vampires.

[paper spruce]

Well the chance is about 1/600 from pots
Or 1/10 from shadow chests
Or you could get the obsidian rose at 2% from imps + ash wood armor
Or go lava fishing
Or craft the potion with water leaves from raining and the herb from hell

[stoic maple]

i already just got like 19 potions

[paper spruce]

obsidian skin potion ???

[stoic maple]

i have 4 of them mb

healing potions are 19

[paper spruce]

[languid juniper]

[cosmic totem]

Wait my guide is gone

[paper spruce]

Yes but it is available pre boss

[fresh crescent]

the guide dies when WoF spawns

[cosmic totem]

[paper spruce]

I am just telling you, blade of grass destroyes both brain and eater

[trim elbow]

Wait.

[languid juniper]

[trim elbow]

For the Guide.

[fresh crescent]

[cosmic totem]

Bri

How long is that going to take

[languid juniper]

typo

[paper spruce]

so ?

[languid juniper]

so i should get a blade of grass jungle armor and an amazon?

[fresh crescent]

npcs spawn during daytime

[cosmic totem]

Okey

[warped shadow]

Rotted fork is also easy

You get it from orbs

[languid juniper]

what orbs

[paper spruce]

blade of grass + platinum armor or jungle armor or ancient shadow armor

full warding

[sharp spindle]

only get jungle armour if you are a mage

[languid juniper]

i do not have enough money for that nor am i gonna bother to make a inf money farm

[paper spruce]

no

[sharp spindle]

??

[warped shadow]

Crimson hearts

[languid juniper]

i figured

[sharp spindle]

jungle armour is a mage set

[paper spruce]

jungle armor is the best pre boss armor regardless of class

[languid juniper]

yea

[sharp spindle]

??

[paper spruce]

as I said, no

[languid juniper]

"pre boss"

[cedar brook]

really really hot question, I'm pre-hardmode pre-skeletron (I've defeated queen bee, king slime, eye of cthulhu, and brain of cthulhu), and I notice that all of my NPC happiness levels are not going below 89%, even though some are in biomes they love with NPC's that they love. Did anything in the new update affect happiness?

[paper spruce]

?

[cedar brook]

(Their discounts aren't going below 89% mb)

[paper spruce]

give an example

[stoic maple]

natural walls in this bedroom need replacing even though i already changed them to wood what do i do

[languid juniper]

i think only 2 npcs go below 89 iirc

[cedar brook]

dryad and painter in jungle

both dryad and painter at 89%

[languid juniper]

its good pre boss

[cedar brook]

discount

[languid juniper]

im not pre boss

[paper spruce]

didn't you say you are pre evil ?

[languid juniper]

when

[paper spruce]

didn't you wanted to beat brain ?

[languid juniper]

yes

that doesnt mean im pre boss

i killed eye

[paper spruce]

that's pre boss

[languid juniper]

hows that preboss

[paper spruce]

eye doesn't unlock anything

[languid juniper]

thats still a boss

also shield

[paper spruce]

sure

but it doesn't unlock anything except yea sure the shield

which means that jungle armor is still the best armor

until post evil

[languid juniper]

aight man

[cedar brook]

Are you playing through as a mage?

[paper spruce]

or well

[languid juniper]

melee

[cedar brook]

Ooo okay

[paper spruce]

second best armor after platinum i guess

if your world has gold, you should go for jungle armor regardless of class

if your world has platinum, go for platinum armor

[languid juniper]

alright

[cedar brook]

Honestly I would do gold for your first brain fight, then make crimson/corruption armor

depending on your evil

(or platinum)

[languid juniper]

but i cant use full jungle i have a gi

[cedar brook]

Sword or yoyo user?

[paper spruce]

prehardmode mage has this weird gimmick where lots of stuff that are mid to end of prehardmode are unlockable pre boss like jungle armor or demon scythe

[paper spruce]

don't use it, use jungle or platinum

[languid juniper]

both would be fine whatever is the best

[paper spruce]

or gold i guess

[paper spruce]

blade of grass is the best

[languid juniper]

the fuck you mean dont use it it litterally buffs me more then +3 defense

[paper spruce]

wdym

[cedar brook]

You can make up that defense via shackles and ironskin pot

[languid juniper]

gi gives 4 defense i get buffed and jungle gives 6 defense i DONT get buffed i dont see why i should use jungle

[languid juniper]

i have +8 defense from my accesories

[paper spruce]

platinum armor has a set bonus that gives 4 def

[cedar brook]

damn-

[languid juniper]

i dont have it

gold world

[paper spruce]

if you can get 17 def from armor alone then sure

[languid juniper]

i just got lucky lmao

[cedar brook]

Gold would also work since full set gives +3 def

[languid juniper]

jungle doesnt even give 17 youre litterally contradicting yourself

[languid juniper]

oh yeah that could work maybe

[cedar brook]

And then personally I would go with your evil's armor set

[paper spruce]

it does ?????

[languid juniper]

ahem ahem you need brain for evil armor set ahem ahem

[paper spruce]

gold gives less than jungle

[cedar brook]

🥲

oh yeah pants give 6

i forgor

[cedar brook]

full gold gives 16 def, and you can make it up via ironskin pots and your accessories

I would say gold just because it's easier to obtain and you won't have to like... traverse through the jungle and get beat by the things in there

[languid juniper]

so uhm one thing
i dont have enough gold for full gold nor enough spores for full jungle

[cedar brook]

You got splunker pots

?

[languid juniper]

jungle isnt that much of problem honestly

[languid juniper]

nope

[paper spruce]

time to either farm, shimmer a few stuff so you have enough, or use gi

[languid juniper]

mf talkin bout sum shimmer 🥀

[paper spruce]

you could shimmer your gold pickaxe or other gold stuff so you have enough

[cedar brook]

have you even like... located your shimmer yet?

[languid juniper]

no

lol

[cedar brook]

I don't mean to sound sassy sorry I came off like that 😭

[languid juniper]

ill find it once i find a compass

[languid juniper]

dw its all good

[cedar brook]

I kinda guessed based off of a tip on the wiki when I was finding it 😭

[languid juniper]

i just use the shimmer location finder

[cedar brook]

... those exists?

[languid juniper]

yes??

[midnight shore]

there's a chart in the pins that helps you find it

[tame thorn]

how do i make the steampunker move in

[languid juniper]

theres a few websites that let you know the location of the shimmer based off your first guide name side of your jungle and the size of your world

[burnt pivot]

why is my dryad saying that theres 11% hallow if i purged it all?https://imgur.com/a/VMhTPp3

[languid juniper]

beat a mech boss and have a vacant house

[tame thorn]

damn it

i havent beaten even one

shit

[languid juniper]

theres... so much underground hallow

[languid juniper]

lmao get to work then

[cedar brook]

ohhhh

[midnight shore]

there's probably hallow elsewhere, that or you need to reopen the world for it to update

[cedar brook]

defeat ~~all ~~ one meche boss. good luck soldier 🫡

[burnt pivot]

where? if ur talkin ab the pink thats just crystals which dont spread hallow

[languid juniper]

erm actually its 1

[languid juniper]

right of desert? or is that corruption?

[burnt pivot]

aight i restarted it and now it says 1%

[burnt pivot]

thats just purple moss cuh

[cerulean plover]

You could use a biomesight potion to see highlighted blocks

[midnight shore]

yep, now good luck looking for that tiny smidge

[languid juniper]

😭 mb

[stoic maple]

@paper spruce i got the full set pickaxe and sword are you proud of me xD

[burnt pivot]

i think ik where to find it

prob sky island

i knew it

raaah

[languid juniper]

hallow? in sky island??

[cedar brook]

niceeee

[cedar brook]

it can happen

[languid juniper]

clouds can turn into hallow??

damn

[burnt pivot]

when the world enters hardmode the V shaped corruption and hallow can hit sky isalnds

[cedar brook]

not clouds but the land above the clouds can

[languid juniper]

damn i didnt know that

[paper spruce]

🙂

[cedar brook]

yea my sky islands are screwed lmao

[burnt pivot]

ive seen it in a vid where a guy tries to purify 100% b4 dryad moves in

[midnight shore]

no but the grass does

[stoic maple]

and i got nights edge now too

[languid juniper]

ohh

[midnight shore]

the V spreads from underworld to space

[burnt pivot]

now just 23% corrupt and 1% crimson ://

welp i got crimson closed off

unless thorns grew and spread it over to the corruption

[cedar brook]

also anyone know whether your boss defeats affect happiness for NPC's?

[burnt pivot]

nope

[midnight shore]

it doesn't

[burnt pivot]

just neighbors and biome

[cedar brook]

I have both the dryad and painter living in the jungle but for some reason price discounts won't drop below 89%... theoretically it should be lower?

[languid juniper]

how do you have both

[cedar brook]

shimmer crimson seeds probably

[languid juniper]

you can do that?

[burnt pivot]

artificial crimson, u can buy seeds in graveyard biome

[cedar brook]

that too

[languid juniper]

wow

[burnt pivot]

its wayyyy better to afk crimson than corruption for souls of night

[languid juniper]

cool stuff

[burnt pivot]

cus corruptors fly away from the lava and theres no nasty clinger mofos

also ichor>flames

imma clean up the corruption tmr

aight im off to play some apex

[paper spruce]

how many npc near by ?

[cedar brook]

3 NPCs total

witch doctor, dryad, painter

[burnt pivot]

it can go above 83?

i think there would need to be 2 loved npcs

cus my demo with tavernkeep and mechanic underground also has 83

[midnight shore]

loved NPCs is automatically max happiness right

[burnt pivot]

nah

[paper spruce]

solitude bonus is no more than 2 NPC within 25 tiles

[paper spruce]

min is 75%

[paper spruce]

no

[burnt pivot]

i think thatll drop it cus all npcs have 2 favs

so at least 3 npcs needed for likings themselves

[paper spruce]

no

[cedar brook]

so basically spread them out more...?

[paper spruce]

try to move away doctor for now

[burnt pivot]

whats the range of towns?

[paper spruce]

wait no

weird

so you only have 3npc within 120 tiles @cedar brook

?

[cedar brook]

yea

[paper spruce]

you should be under 70%

[stoic maple]

how do i make an arena in hell do i just build platforms like normal?

[cedar brook]

(let me actually double check to make sure it's within 120... that might be my problem)

[burnt pivot]

is the 25 block thing real?cus if i need to move 1 npc further from demolitionist get more than 5.2 plat from selling a stack of threads i would happily do that

[paper spruce]

oh wait, it seems that dryad doesn't actually love painter

@cedar brook

[paper spruce]

long bridge

[burnt pivot]

ye shes neutral

[stoic maple]

alr bet

[paper spruce]

this explains why

[burnt pivot]

id use full blocks so only 1 eye can lob lasers your way

[cedar brook]

true, but the witch doctor and dryad have a relationship, along with the painter loving the dryad

[stoic maple]

is there a specific level i need to throw the vodoo doll in or any lava in underworld will spawn him

[paper spruce]

then tell me the values you see

[paper spruce]

it will

[burnt pivot]

but painter is neutral to witch doc, dryad doesnt love him. tough luck painter

[stoic maple]

alr

[lunar remnant]

Can I just pop a spelunker potion and search anywhere underground for rubies?

[cedar brook]

so basically move the painter for now

[trim elbow]

Yeah.

[lunar remnant]

Ok

[burnt pivot]

id you want full dryad sell / buy price move in truffle and witch doctor, if you want max painter then dryad and party girl

[cedar brook]

I'm just tryna get lowest pylon price 😭

hate travelling through crimson just to get to jungle

[burnt pivot]

u in hm or phm

[trim elbow]

Back in my day, if we wanted to go to the Jungle we had to make teleporters, and to make them we needed to go uphill both ways during a blizzard while being invaded.

[languid juniper]

blade of grass or godly tentacle spike for brain?

[cedar brook]

phm

[cedar brook]

lmaoo

[burnt pivot]

then painter with dryad and party girl, painter will be the cheapest

[languid juniper]

??

[burnt pivot]

blade of grass, spike is small

[paper spruce]

as I said, blade of grass
also tentacle spike is awful, don't use it

And venom staff

Ye

Still, what's q1

[sinful ocean]

trivia

[burnt pivot]

Ah

I haven't looked there in a few years

I instantly muted the channel

[sinful ocean]

I used to try it but then I remembered I knew nothing

[burnt pivot]

I looked there sometimes when i had like 30 hrs at the game

I came to the fundamental conclusion that I may be using too many qol mods when playing tmod, I had infernum runs where I finished the whole thing -{boss rush} in like 26 hours, now I'm playing master mode vanilla, got to hard mode in like 10 - 11 hours and now I'm pre golem at 30 doing side quests like fishing for potions or purifying biomes

[sinful ocean]

Definitely, though if you're having fun, no harm done. Just won't be fun for long

[burnt pivot]

I rage quit 2 times bc of Santa nk1 healing himself or despawning or dropping nothing but now that I got my Venus magnum and elf melter it ain't so painful to do

[short ginkgo]

can teleportation potions tp you to places you're not supposed to access early like temple, or are there restrictions? (ik u can just hoik there but im curious abt tp potions)

[burnt pivot]

Only when u unlock it, it also can't tp you in lava

[nimble wing]

what's the best way to get platinum

[burnt pivot]

Ore or coins?

[nimble wing]

Ore

[burnt pivot]

Mine

[sinful ocean]

Pickaxe

[twilit perch]

how important is the emblem from WoF?

[timid cipher]

do you have gold ores in your world

[sinful ocean]

Very important

[nimble wing]

yes 😭

[timid cipher]

its a quite good offensive accasorry

[burnt pivot]

It's +15% damage of any class so it's kinda important for time restricted bosses

[timid cipher]

well then no platinum ores spawn naturally

[twilit perch]

ok

is it worth fighting the WoF again bc idk what happened to it

[burnt pivot]

U can always grind slimes or extractinate for 5 hrs straight -w-

[sinful ocean]

Yeah, should be easy with new loot

[timid cipher]

in case you rly want platinum for some reason (gold gear is rly close in strength to it), you can either shimmer cobalt ore, or extractinate silt of fossils for a couple ores

[nimble wing]

where can I find extratinator

Like the seed

[sinful ocean]

Everywhere you don't want one

[nimble wing]

or some stuff like that

[worthy pasture]

underground dessert, in houses

[burnt pivot]

Gold chests, spawning in houses or wooden crates

[nimble wing]

k

[timid cipher]

either rarely in gold chests or inside underground desert houses

or rarely in wood crates

[burnt pivot]

Just use gold or tungsten man it ain't that much worse

[timid cipher]

if u want it for gear

[nimble wing]

but the 20 armor points bro

[timid cipher]

gold is 18 iirc

[nimble wing]

I need it

[timid cipher]

whats the issue with that

[sinful ocean]

2 defense is not going to kill you

[timid cipher]

why lol

[nimble wing]

and the still didn't find the goblin guy

in the dungeon

[timid cipher]

huh??

[burnt pivot]

Did u kill the army?

[nimble wing]

no

[timid cipher]

goblin guy isnt in the dungeon wtf

[nimble wing]

Ah

[timid cipher]

goblin tinkerer only spawns after defeating the army

[sinful ocean]

Dude you need to send me $20 to start advancing in the game

[nimble wing]

how do I spawn the army

Shadow Orb

The Shadow Orb is a background object found deep in the chasms of the Corruption. A world generated with the Corruption features several Shadow Orbs, and destroying at least three of them (in a single world) is usually a crucial step in game advancement. This can be done using any hammer or [explosives](<https://terraria.wiki.gg/wiki/Explosives_(class)…

[burnt pivot]

Fishron, empress or beetle if ur too lazy to kill em

[rancid drum]

but empress, betsy, or steampunk are ok

[normal fiber]

Betsy, especially if using soaring insignia

[crimson frigate]

are they all the same?

[timid cipher]

Fishron>Betsy=Empress>Steampunk iirc

[timid cipher]

nop

[crimson frigate]

ok

[timid cipher]

wiki it tbh, thats simpler

[burnt pivot]

Different flight times, speed, acceleration, abilities

[nimble wing]

those scouts goblin are annoying

[crimson frigate]

im lazy

so fishron?

[timid cipher]

its not any slower than asking ppl here

[timid cipher]

yes, the best pre moon lord wing

[normal fiber]

Only if you aren't using soaring insignia

[crimson frigate]

can i get it in classic tho?

[burnt pivot]

I need a new pfp, if yall got any good ones slide it in my dm

[timid cipher]

even if u use it, its the fastest

[timid cipher]

yeah

[crimson frigate]

ok

[timid cipher]

fishron wings at least

[normal fiber]

It's not.

[nimble wing]

how to i access journey mode?

[timid cipher]

then whats faster

[crimson frigate]

welp i got to get grinding

[timid cipher]

create a new charachter and select its difficulty mode

[nimble wing]

k

[burnt pivot]

You make a character with journey mode and a world with journey, you can't mix journey with other modes

[nimble wing]

k²

[burnt pivot]

I/m

[normal fiber]

The first percentage is horizontal speed multiplier; the 2nd is vertical speed multiplier.

Plus, betsy has hover & empress has vertical accel boost

[timid cipher]

hm

[burnt pivot]

betsy is so annoying to get tho

ooa is so booty

[timid cipher]

nice, i thought fishron was faster than those

[sinful ocean]

You wouldn't be able get me to do Slop One's Army even if you had a gun to my head

[rancid drum]

fishron has 3s flight time

[timid cipher]

so its actually balanced, thats sick
fishron for time
betsy for hover
empress for vertical speed

[rancid drum]

not even a level 1 ooa in early hardmode?

[sinful ocean]

Not even that

[burnt pivot]

is there anything worth it?

[rancid drum]

featherfall potions:

[pine valve]

just wanna ask im tryna get foxparks/cattiva so ive made a artificial forest biome but just wanna know if goblin scouts are spawning does that mean its working

[rancid drum]

defender medals for level 2

[versed vault]

I just defeated the mechanical destroyer for the first time what do I do with the Hallowed bars I have 29

[timid cipher]

yeah, they spawn nearly at the same place as scouts

[sinful ocean]

I always beat the game just fine without touching that event

[burnt pivot]

scouts spawn in any terrain in the outer part of the world

[rancid drum]

armor, weapons, save them for a pickaxe axe

[sinful ocean]

Make a weapon or save for armor

[timid cipher]

ask the guide for recipes

[normal fiber]

Also why fishron falls out if you can use insignia.

[burnt pivot]

i used mine for a repeater

[timid cipher]

nice, thx

[sinful ocean]

Big mistake...

[timid cipher]

also a nice option

hallowed stuff isnt too bad

nice for twins and even prime, yeah

[burnt pivot]

how do yall get them colored ranks

[normal fiber]

id:customize

[sinful ocean]

You need to beat the Moon Lord a certain number of time

How do I get hell stone

[burnt pivot]

mine it hell with a nigthmare/deathbringer pickaxe

Terraria Wiki

Hellstone Bar

The Hellstone Bar is a pre-Hardmode bar. It is used to craft some of the most powerful equipment available pre-Hardmode, and remains useful, if not necessary, in dealing with the shift in difficulty upon entering Hardmode. Notably, the Molten Pickaxe is the only pre-Hardmode pickaxe…

[heavy chasm]

Alright thank you so much I was lost

[burnt pivot]

weapon itself is like ~80

or is it 60?

was hellstone 3 ores per bar or 4?

[normal fiber]

3

[burnt pivot]

aight so 60 for da volcano

[twilit perch]

so im working on a mage build. i want the emblem for my class. what do i get rid of? i have fledgling wings (going to get hardmode wing asap), magiluminaecense, terra boots, celestial cuffs, mana flower and the singer necklace

[rancid drum]

tsparks are irrelevant once you get rollerskates or good wings

[twilit perch]

ah ok

[twilit perch]

i mainly use the liquid walking tho.

[rancid drum]

no you dont

[twilit perch]

ok

[sinful ocean]

You can have it in vanity and use it for exploring, then switch for emblem during fights

[twilit perch]

fair enough

[burnt pivot]

I'd say the necklace personally

[analog knot]

i dont think stinger necklace would do much

you could also swap to amphibian boots for more ascent speed with wings during bossfights if you need that

[coarse wyvern]

There's no need for amphibian with roller skates

[rancid drum]

no need for boots*

[burnt pivot]

Are skates really that good?

[analog knot]

#NERFROLLERSKATES

[coarse wyvern]

Faster than hermes boots, ascent speed, good for building and thry don't use an accessorie slot

[coarse wyvern]

Agreed

[obsidian epoch]

Wait how do I get roller skates

[analog knot]

skeleton merchant sells them for 10 gold

[obsidian epoch]

Is it rare

For him to sell it

[analog knot]

im pretty sure he always sells it

okay let me check

[pallid spear]

ur at low health, surrounded by monsters and u want to not lose ur money when u die? js get some grenades and blow urself up :3 (cuz it will count as if u dieded from ur own grenade insted of whats attacking u)

it worked for me

[burnt pivot]

or have chester/void bank?

[pallid spear]

wth is that

lel

[analog knot]

or you could just

[pallid spear]

also its for early game

[burnt pivot]

basically a portable piggy bank

[analog knot]

void bag or money trough

How do I not die to lava like is there a potion because I can’t mine

[coarse wyvern]

You can get it from hell pots

[obsidian epoch]

Kk thanks :>

greedy bastard wandering merchant

[coarse wyvern]

He's gotta pay the traveling fees somehow

[burnt pivot]

what do i do? im too sleepy to play fps games and im burned out with terraria

[analog knot]

he gets enough money from me while im trying to craft cell phone no?

[burnt pivot]

a dead guy, underground, where there aint many humans, especially skaters, sells it cheaper than the guy who wanders the whole world exploring everywhere?

[coarse wyvern]

I mean whats he gonna need the money for down there

[burnt pivot]

melt it down into armor and weapons for self defence

https://imgur.com/a/WbPPVbj can i become a developer now?

peak architecture imo

[solemn ingot]

Low demand = low price

[burnt pivot]

i got the high rollers elsewhere

[solemn ingot]

Aka "there's no one down here for the love of god can someone please buy this shit"

[paper spruce]

you can also get it with 1/10 chance from shadow chest, 1/600 from pots in hell, and 1/300 from pots in hell in expert

rent is way cheaper here than in this ineffective thing housing only a handful of npc, also took me a wee bit long to build while i whipped this up in less than 5 minutes https://imgur.com/a/QabwNBg

Yo bro so I'm stealing yo build idea, thank you

[burnt pivot]

no problem?

[fervent prism]

[coarse wyvern]

How's the dual dungoen challange going so far

[keen flax]

would use a bit more concrete

[burnt pivot]

is that a play on my name or not?

[keen flax]

umm clearly, it has nothing to do with the name, has it?
Were I you, I'd put concrete in the build as a watermark of sorts, so that it'd be clear that it was Beton who made it

[burnt pivot]

it does, beton means concrete in like 15 countries

including russian, german, french. turkish, swedish to name a few

[keen flax]

Good
means the watermark would be clear and undeniable
your name would spread

[uneven nova]

Hello resplendence

[ruby zenith]

Do anyone have a tip to kill duke Fishron as melee

[coarse wyvern]

Dodge

[woven notch]

terrablade probably

[plain gulch]

Hate, let’s me tell you how much I come to hate dual dungeons, since I began this run. There are 34 to 100 billion miles of dna coiled up to fill my complex. If the word ‘hate’ were engraved on each nano-angstrom of those hundreds of MILLIONS of miles, it would not equal one, one billionth of the hate I feel for this challenge at this micro instant. For this challenge, hate, HATE

[ruby zenith]

Well I have it but the problem is the sharks from tornados this what kill me I got hit by every shark but first try I got him to like 17k or lower

On expert

[woven notch]

what wings do you use

or mount

[burnt pivot]

https://imgur.com/a/u6mjdQr

[plain gulch]

On the bright side 6k sand

[burnt pivot]

oh no

[manic drift]

@solemn ingot Dumb question but is magic dealing summoner a thing? Like using magic weapons plus summons

[woven notch]

theres an armor set that boosts both

[plain gulch]

Welcome to hybrid classes lad

[robust sparrow]

If you stack damage

[warm pike]

Anyone need help with anything, I’m kinda bored

[ruby zenith]

Idk what they are named but it got them from golem and I ask Google about the name but it says golem dont drop wings

[robust sparrow]

U will want to wear the mage armour with summoner accessories. Reforge them for damage. It will apply to spells and summons

[woven notch]

beetle wings those r good

those with shield of cthulhu or master ninja gear is pretty good

[ruby zenith]

Not beetle I saw wings drop right after I kill golem

[woven notch]

hmm

[wraith tusk]

dev set then

[ruby zenith]

It's wings not attached to me

I will just join the game and see them

[woven notch]

i think theyre a dev set like nebula said

[minor brook]

What do the pixies do?

[wraith tusk]

attack

unless small

then they lead u to stuff

[ruby zenith]

Yeah it's for Devs it's ghostar's infinity eight

[wraith tusk]

theyre all decent iirc

lemme see what direct comparison is there

[coarse wyvern]

https://tenor.com/view/caffeinecaravan-cogito-ergo-sum-i-am-therefore-i-am-gif-9299504362544689271

[copper ravine]

Pixies don't lead to treasure, that's fairies

[coarse wyvern]

The real treasure is the manliest set of wings known by man kind

[warm pike]

Potato, tomato same thing

[wraith tusk]

nearly identical to jetpack

buut thats early hm

thus theres a lot better options

[woven notch]

yea beetle wings would be an easy upgrade to get

[coarse wyvern]

There's no wings manlier than fairy wings

[woven notch]

butterfly wings maybe

[plain gulch]

Yeah

[ruby zenith]

Trying to get wings is not that important for me bec I will change wings for cute Fishron

[blazing spear]

Guys should i chose tp be a specofic class or just go on being a rango-summo-melee-magic-er?

[wraith tusk]

with prismatic dye

[plain gulch]

Lwk tho slime dd

[coarse wyvern]

What stage are you at rn?

[wraith tusk]

add mage

theres a lot of stuff there thats lingering hitboxes

[blazing spear]

Done

[coarse wyvern]

Atleast you can use beenades for WoF right?

Having to sandgun WoF is painful. Possible but painful

[blazing spear]

(forgot magic weps existed but i still use them.)

[woven notch]

good mobility is important for fishron tho so they might help

the queen slime mount is decent for him too im pretty sure

[blazing spear]

So is it better being a general fighter or a specialized one?

[brisk bison]

sandgun does great against wof, it's just messy

[wraith tusk]

https://tenor.com/view/loona-helluva-boss-this-kind-of-shit-gets-messy-messi-sport-gif-9272424835432947052

[brisk bison]

it also does much better with crimsand or ebonsand

or pearlsand if you have access to it for some reason...

[woven notch]

space gun is the solution to everything trust

[solid crest]

Space gun worse zapinator

[ruby zenith]

What accessories should I use for duke Fishron I use fire gauntlet and berserker gloves and destroyer emblem and idk other 3 I will see later and no wings or terraspark boots bec I will use chillet mount which don't use wings or terraspark boots and it's more dmg and a free dash with invincibility so what is other 3 items

[brisk bison]

meh choice if post skele

[ruby zenith]

Should I try get frozen shield

[woven notch]

its easier to get tbf

its 1.4.5 buff def helped it out a bit

[brisk bison]

that was hard to read 🥴

yeah get frozen shield if you can

celestial stone/shell would be great too

[ruby zenith]

Good bec I have celestial shell

[plain gulch]

Hell

[brisk bison]

and since you're gonna use chillet, maybe spend a slot or two for double jumps

[plain gulch]

By that I mean jungle

Cause i forgot hell actually exists in terraria

[coarse wyvern]

The Chungle

[plain gulch]

Smart

[ruby zenith]

Wait I will see if I can jump without terraspark boots or bundles of balloons

[woven notch]

a shield will help and if you need more defensive things then worm scarf or brain of confusion is good too imo

[half venture]

Throw spikey balls along your hell platform too

[coarse wyvern]

Hells easier to explore than the chungle atleast

[plain gulch]

Well I'm still gonna use it cause 6 fucking thousand sand

[opaque snow]

I hate blood moons

I got 3 bloody tears and a momey trough before a shark tooth

[brisk bison]

so 6 total slots, right?

[half venture]

You ever gotten 2 back to back blood moon/solar eclipses?

[opaque snow]

Yet to progress far enough to get a solar eclipse

[coarse wyvern]

I wanna try a challenge I'm bored :p

[plain gulch]

Honestly I would rather go through hell without any weapons while being chased by wof and 178 demons than go through this jungle

[half venture]

Wya rn?

[opaque snow]

WoF

[half venture]

What class

[opaque snow]

Trying to get stinger necklace

Melee

[half venture]

W

Based

[ruby zenith]

I can use hook but I will lose momentum

[half venture]

Use the star fury for WOF

[opaque snow]

Running the twin maces since my Night’s Edge is… mediocre rn

[half venture]

It has piercing

[uneven nova]

❌

[coarse wyvern]

Dual dungoen chungle must hurt more no place to hide from bees

[uneven nova]

Night's edge

[coarse wyvern]

Or hornets I guess

[coarse wyvern]

Show them accessories

[ruby zenith]

I hate hornets in hard mode as hell

[brisk bison]

assuming you're using terra blade, i would do this

celestial stone/shell
fire gauntlet
a single good double jump or bundle of balloons
cross necklace/star veil (or destroyer emblem/mechanical glove if more damage is preferred)
worm scarf/brain of confusion
frozen shield

[uneven nova]

Is it due to reforges?
Like do you have terrible on it or smth

[ruby zenith]

Is 4 warding 2 menacing good?

[uneven nova]

That is pretty solid

[brisk bison]

yea sure

[plain gulch]

oh they aren't the worst enemies

[opaque snow]

Nah, it’s superior, but starfury has godly and blue moon has legendary

[plain gulch]

I forgot the shits name hol up

[coarse wyvern]

The eaters?

[brisk bison]

other way around i guess..? blue moon cannot get legendary

[coarse wyvern]

Best reforges for flails are godly or demonic

[plain gulch]

Yeah

[coarse wyvern]

Legendary is locked out of flail reforges

[plain gulch]

Man eaters are a PAIN

[ruby zenith]

Star veil is brain of cthulthu but lower invincibility but more dmg from buff right?

[opaque snow]

Yeah sorry

[ruby zenith]

I mean opposite

[opaque snow]

So… i can’t post pics here -_-

[coarse wyvern]

Hmm I guess they aren't much of a problem in normal runs becuase of mud covering themm all the time lol

[opaque snow]

So…
Warding SoC
Warding BoC
Menacing Claws
Warding Spectre (no anklets in jungle)
Menacing Blue Horseshoe balloon

[uneven nova]

Starfury is NOT good for wall
If you need range, use the stylist scissors

Unless they were nerfed

Which I would see lol

[brisk bison]

completely different effects

[opaque snow]

I meant sunfury -_-

[uneven nova]

Fair enough

[brisk bison]

star veil extends the duration of your invincibility frames after you take or dodge a hit

[ruby zenith]

Lets say cross necklace it has more invincibility but no dmg buff after dodge

[brisk bison]

well, thats the effect of cross necklace actually, the star cloak effect doesnt do much usually

unless you facetank

[brisk bison]

uhh yeah sure, cross necklace's effect is guaranteed though

[brisk bison]

starfury is alright for wall, pretty annoying to aim though

its a very safe choice

[ruby zenith]

I will use star veil I don't want to waste the last 2 duke Fishron baits and dont want to look for more again

Celestial shell
Fire gauntlet
Bundles of balloons
Star veil
Destroyer emblem (bec I am not finding more mimics and feral claws)
Frozen shield

[latent void]

Moon lord is final right?

[ruby zenith]

Yes

And is a water in big bubble arena with celestial shell for the Neptune shell which let me breathe underwater with cute Fishron good

[plain gulch]

Yeah but now imagine tight ass rooms

[unkempt belfry]

best whip for WoF

[oak kernel]

hey folks, i'm experiencing some really weird framrate slowdowns on PC that i can't really explain... Is this a known issue?

[burnt pivot]

i did it

the 1% is from a contained artificial crimson soul of night farm

[ruby zenith]

Is master ninja gear useless if I will use chillet dash?

[wraith tusk]

yes

[karmic raven]

How tf do I beat the mechanical bosses as mage in master mode? I have a ton of different hardmode weapons with the best modifiers, full adamantite armo, good accessories, I'm using all the potions (including ones like endurance and rage which you need fish for) and despite that I deal very little damage I die before getting any of the three bosses below 75% hp.

[ruby zenith]

And can someone answer this bec I don't want to make it and be a bad arena

[uneven nova]

Make a good arena
What weapons are you using?

[fervent onyx]

Anyone know why cultist isn't spawning? Skeletron spawned fine

[uneven nova]

For eyes and skeletron prime, I like sky fracture
For destroyer, nimbus rod and maybe crystal vile is good

[ruby zenith]

How did you send a photo

[burnt pivot]

id make them with honey cus of regen and i think it also speeds up baby ron'

[fervent onyx]

Terrarian role

[ruby zenith]

But if honey you can't see

[uneven nova]

#terrarian-role-info @ruby zenith

[ruby zenith]

How do I get that

[burnt pivot]

https://imgur.com/a/h0zABQf this looks quite satysfying, too bad i had to tear up my world

[burnt pivot]

wdym can't see

[ruby zenith]

So I just don't break the rules to get terrarian role?

[karmic raven]

Sky fracture is very difficult to obtain for me since I don't have a hallowed desert and I've already tried using weapons like the crystal vile, golden shower and life drain against the destroyer but I just get one-shot by the lasers.

[ruby zenith]

Wait I forgot if honey was transparent

[karmic raven]

I even swapped some accessories to more defensive ones like the shell from the ice turtles, I don't remember the name.

[burnt pivot]

you can just make small pockets in bubbles

[fervent onyx]

[ruby zenith]

Ok now I understand

[ruby zenith]

Me too

I will try killing golem again

[burnt pivot]

maybe they spawn at natural dungeon entrance height? your dungeon seems pretty torn up

[ruby zenith]

My dungeon is the same where old man was spawning

Idk about nitoreagan

I even stayed far from where they should spawn for in game day and they didn't spawn

[burnt pivot]

is venus magnum good against duke and golem? im using chlorophyte bullets and my 2nd weapon is the elf melter

[uneven nova]

against golem or duke?

[nocturne linden]

golem i guess

it hits more than 1 target doesn't it

for duke there's better options

@brisk bison Aguxz my beloved

help me decide something

[brisk bison]

what

[brisk bison]

both but against fishron it might be a bit difficult to use

[nocturne linden]

should i play hardcore expert summoner

or continue my playthrough that i lost the will to play a little after 1.4.5 released

[brisk bison]

new run

[nocturne linden]

i only remember it was pre hm

[nocturne linden]

so hardcore?

anything i should know b4 trying to kill duke?

[raven moth]

Crafting, or Biome Mimics/Hardmode bosses.

[unkempt belfry]

[burnt pivot]

post plant

[brisk bison]

build a small surface hallow farm and craft them

[unkempt belfry]

class?

[burnt pivot]

ranger

[brisk bison]

just dont panic on phase 3

use a mount with high vertical mobility if necessary

like gelatinous pillion

[burnt pivot]

all i got is da unicorn

[unkempt belfry]

megashark + cursed bullets + golden shower

[burnt pivot]

cursed for duke?

[unkempt belfry]

not that good tbh

[burnt pivot]

i planned on using chlorophyte with venus magnum

[brisk bison]

they have better weapons than mega

[unkempt belfry]

u can use either tbh

[brisk bison]

yea venus w chloro does alright

[unkempt belfry]

i forgot chain gun mb

[brisk bison]

crystal bullets would be better if aiming isnt an issue

[unkempt belfry]

meant chain gun instead of mega shark

[burnt pivot]

1st attempt got him down to 30k hp :/

my movement is too slow

[unkempt belfry]

venus, chain gun, or mega?

[burnt pivot]

venus, when he uses bubbles elf melter

[unkempt belfry]

chain gun is better than venus imo

[burnt pivot]

i killed 14 santas still didnt drop

ik its better

i feel like my loadout is kinda ass tho

[unkempt belfry]

mobility for cobalt

[burnt pivot]

im afraid of getting juggled

[unkempt belfry]

mobility for bundle

[burnt pivot]

what mobility

[unkempt belfry]

ram rune to juke dashes

[burnt pivot]

what potions should i use

im using the usual suspects, ironskin, swiftness, regen, lifeforce, endurance

[sonic pier]

At least upgrade the cobalt shield to an obsidian shield

[uneven meadow]

do you have an obsidian skull

[nocturne linden]

rage and wrath

[burnt pivot]

ugh making more artificial biomes cus i wiped all the evil off of my world

[nocturne linden]

make it on the sky btw

[brisk bison]

could get rid of lightning boots and use roller skates for running instead

[nocturne linden]

so its easier for it not to spread

[brisk bison]

also if you dont mind grinding, cobalt shield -> frozen/hero shield (preferably frozen)

[ruby zenith]

Should I farm crimson key for vampire knifes or desert key for tiger staff summon I play melee but I use blade staff

[burnt pivot]

aint that just dmg reduction when below half?

[ruby zenith]

I have terra blade tho

[nocturne linden]

and 6 defense

[brisk bison]

since roller skates are a mount you would have an empty accessory slot for extra damage or some extra survivability like cross necklace/star veil

[nocturne linden]

and knockback immunity

and since you are also using worm scarf the damage reduction also helps even though you're ranged

[brisk bison]

kb immunity, 6 defense, 25% damage reduction if below 50% hp

its a great survivabiltiy accessory

[ruby zenith]

How do I get frozen shield

[ruby zenith]

.

[burnt pivot]

whats the point of dr if he deals a fuckton of damage and can basically 3-4 tap me at 600 hp

[nocturne linden]

paladin shield

and frozen shell

[nocturne linden]

they are like whatever

not that op for you to go farm the keys

but if u want to try them go for it

[ruby zenith]

Frozen shells from turtles in snow?

[nocturne linden]

yes

i think the drop chance is 2%

[burnt pivot]

tiger staff is mid if u arent a summoner, vamp knives are kinda bad so id make a corruption and get scourge

[brisk bison]

you would last one extra hit at least, and its not like the accessory is only useful against fishron

[nocturne linden]

vamp knives are mostly decent

[brisk bison]

its super helpful for pretty much the entirety of post plantera

[ruby zenith]

How much health do vampire knives steal

[nocturne linden]

low hp

[brisk bison]

depends on damage dealt iirc

[burnt pivot]

basically every enemy deals at least 100 dmg to me, duke dealt 230 in 1 hit last fight and i already had 37% dr

[brisk bison]

Upon hitting an enemy, each knife causes a lifesteal effect that heals the player for 7.5% of the damage dealt (rounded down), signified by a red beam connecting to the player. The knives will eventually decrease in damage and fade after traveling a certain distance.

@burnt pivot look at this way lets take hero shield and frozen shield

taking 100 damage with frozen DR would mean it would be 75 damage instead

with hero shield (it just has 4 more defense) you would take 96 damage

damage reduction helps

more than simple defense

[brisk bison]

so he was enraged probably lol

230 in 1 hit is not possible otherwise

[ruby zenith]

So I should get ruthless for +18% dmg which is most dmg modifier

Legendary is +15%

[nocturne linden]

no

legendary is better

[burnt pivot]

nah he just rammed into me in 2nd stage

[nocturne linden]

legendary also gives crit chance and speed yknow

[brisk bison]

well yea he still does that when enraged

[uneven meadow]

max contact damage for duke is 210 in master mode so ye

[ruby zenith]

Oh I forgot

[burnt pivot]

its 310 in 2nd phase

[arctic copper]

Legendary mode?

[uneven meadow]

legendary mode prob

or enraged

[brisk bison]

so yeah unless you're playing legendary, no

[burnt pivot]

master

[arctic copper]

Enraged duke has no phases

[ruby zenith]

@burnt pivot use chillet and dash into him when he dash into you

Try idk if it works

But maybe

[brisk bison]

oh right

the wiki separates by phases for whatever reason

[arctic copper]

I really dk why everyone keeps recommending dashes against duke when the gelatinous pillion exists

[burnt pivot]

funky

[arctic copper]

You can just jump

Why dash and risk yourself

[brisk bison]

how do you have 37% dr though

you sure it isnt 27

[nocturne linden]

resistance potion worm scarf and idk

[ruby zenith]

Well idk what is gelatinous so I didn't say to use it

[arctic copper]

Queen slime drop

[nocturne linden]

aka king slime mount

[ruby zenith]

Oh this thing

[nocturne linden]

but better

[burnt pivot]

ye, i thought it was 20% for endurance

[arctic copper]

Astronomically better for dealing with 3rd phase duke since you're not ramming yourself into his face all the time

[nocturne linden]

the way damage reduction works is funny though

since it doesn't exactly stack

or maybe im just confusing things

[brisk pumice]

How big of a minecart track would I need to make if I were to beat daytime prime using the exploding daybreak trick

[arctic copper]

Why tho

[nocturne linden]

i think its easier for you to use flare gun

[brisk bison]

yea i find pillion easier to use too

less risky for obvious reasons

[arctic copper]

Pillion is always easier to use

[brisk pumice]

Wait but isn't the flare gun bad at dealing damage

[nocturne linden]

you see

[burnt pivot]

its not ab damage but filling projectile cap

[nocturne linden]

flare gun helps you to maximizs the projectiles limit

then empress can't attack

[brisk pumice]

Oh

[nocturne linden]

other than her dash

so you still have to look out for it
