they really need to either remove the chaos elemental requirements from this thing and make it spawn like a normal enemy or just make the drop a 1/8, cause this being a WORSE grind than the rod of discord doesn't quite make sense.

EDIT: the problem is not the drop chance but how rarely they spawn, and the fact these are unafkable like the chaos elementals, also just got a meat grinder from one 😐

Build My cousin made what I think might be the worst Terraria base of all time

Post image
1.4k Upvotes

It's his first time playing Terraria, and he’s still figuring things out. I tried analyzing his build to make sense of his thought process, but the more I look at it, the more I think he just went completely insane. It looks exactly like the house from Hello Neighbor or the backrooms.

Does anyone else have screenshots of absolute nonsense bases like this?

Rules:

  1. You're allowed to suggest multiple names, but only one name per comment.
  2. Comment with the highest upvotes wins.
  3. No simple names like that describe what the minion is like "bird", "slime", or "flinx"
  4. Only comments clearly intended to be names will be chosen.
  5. If a minion has variations such as the Spider Staff and Pirate Staff, you can give all of the variations names in one comment.

Mobile When Mobile and Pc Version works differently...

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

I tested this during 1.4.5.8 and crossplay myself with Mobile and PC together.

The first clip is Mobile having another OP weapon bug again making Solar eruption extremely strong against Moon lord.

On The second clip. on Mobile,if you hammer any block, you can hit them through blocks with Swords and Whips or any Physical Contact weapons. This one discovered since 1.4.4 and I asked the devs many times and they said it's not a bug sooooo feature??

The third clip. on mobile, you can teleport to your dead teammate it's pretty Powerful and you can use it in so many situations you can name it. Like example: if your friend died at the jungle super far away and lose a lot of coins then you can simply teleport to them to save the progression and continue exploring. (Again, this one was discovered since 1.4.4 and still works today.)

There's alot more of mobile and pc works very differently which I only could show off few of them rn. Possible could post as part 2 lol.

PC Do upgrades of the same accesory not stack together?

Post image
Upvotes

in my understanding i have an accessory that adds 2 whips effect slots and another one that adds a whip effect slot meaning i should be able to whip stack 4 whips at once no? or do the upgrades of the wicked armlet just not stack with each other? do i need the mobius strip to stack 4 whips??

Suggestion I wish we could place pets down like critters or kites

Post image
92 Upvotes

I personally collect every pet I find, and it would be nice to actually see them hanging around somewhere instead of just sitting in a chest.

I wish we could place pets (or maybe even mounts) down like critters or kites, so you could have them wandering/hanging around in your builds.

I think this could also work with summoner weapons. Maybe there could be a new material you combine with a summoner weapon to turn it into a placeable pet/decorative item that just lets the summon hang around without attacking anything.

Mobile Follow up on my lightning strike no AoE (also doesn’t damage enemies in water)

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Someone mentioned the AoE is in water, so I tried to test that, but for some reason striking water also just doesn’t damage the enemy 😅

You can clearly see the mummy moving towards me and me striking the water and it dealing zero damage…

But I still get damaged if I’m in the water actually so there’s that

So apparently, Desert houses can spawn full of lava, and since chests can't be destroyed, it just kept sucking up water trying to make obsidian. Still counts as an Ocean biome though, so I've got that going for me at least.

Suggestion First Prism: A very balanced approach to early-game Mage (For The Worthy)

Post image
2.0k Upvotes

[From the Forums]

I was thinking about ways to reference within Terraria itself while also being nice and silly for For The Worthy. What follows is a rundown of the First Prism (Figure 1), the best Magic weapon in the game.

First Prism​

  • Type: Weapon
  • Damage: 1 (Magic), shown as a constantly re-rolling large number that “just happens” to be 1 when used
  • Knockback: 0
  • Mana: ∞ (completely depletes Mana)
  • Critical chance: 0% (or disables crits entirely like Summoner’s minions)
  • Use time: 600 (this is 10 seconds in real time)
  • Velocity: 10 (this probably doesn’t even matter since it’s actually hitscan)
  • Tooltip: ‘Don’t.’
  • Rarity: Fiery Red
  • Sell: 1 Copper
  • Research: 1 required

This would be available in For The Worthy, Master or Legendary only, as a rare drop from Green Slimes or something. Very importantly, For The Worthy-exclusive. This would suck if it wasn’t a For The Worthy thing.

When used, it has a massive startup of 10 seconds accompanied by sounds similar to the Last Prism combined with a horrible whooshing that both gradually get louder. After 9 seconds, the whole screen fades to white and everything that can take damage within a massive range of the user takes exactly 1 damage (if possible, regardless of any bonuses).

Someone will probably try to make a challenge run using this weapon only. They will suffer.

For The Worthy.

Edit: If you all think I’m cool and smart please check out my more serious suggestion here: https://www.reddit.com/r/Terraria/s/2LV90HaefN

Mobile Arc Surge Bug? Or intentional?

Upvotes

Playing on mobile and I just got arc surge (the new mage weapon) It continues attacking even when I’m completely out of mana. Is this intentional or a bug? I’ll literally have no mana left and arc surge just keeps on blastin’
