>>558369723
I like the dungeon weapon for corruption more, when I had less options for lighting up caves and the map (temporarily), by making every projectile flaming
corruption was first therefore its better, etc
verticle and horizontal shafts are much less annoying than the diagonals the crimson has

Lava shark arena is legit now

>>558376023
the vertical speed is lacking but the horizontal one brings me back to the glory days of the pirate ship pre nerf

>>558407241
Nonsense, mana accessories highly overrated. Mana regen potions are free, and using damage accessories instead means you kill things in less shots, which is the same as not spending as much mana on them.

I'm a bit late, but I share your pain, anon from last thread who was lamenting that they removed shimmering ale glasses into glass. Was this change really needed? You can extractinate obsidian into sand, which still makes glass renewable, it's just infinitely slower and more tedious. I don't understand the reasoning.

>>558407241
are you in normal mode or something? with 6 accessory slots in hardmode you should have plenty of room. with melee you should be using at least a glove accessory, and maybe even your emblem. That's 2 accessories you can swap out for magic accessories, like the mana cloak and the emblem. If you only had 1 melee damage accessory you can swap it out for either the mana flower upgrade of choice or your emblem or other damaging mana accessory, and sip mana pots manually or just sip a mana regen pot and take a short break from firing during boss fights.
Alternatively alternatively, you can swap out movement for damage. With a good mount (like roller skates or chillet) you dont need boots, so that's a free slot. With chillet you'd also not need a dash accessory, but you'd pretty much need bundle of balloons in hardmode for the vertical.
You have a lot of options for accessory setups, especially during bosses, you just need to be a bit creative to fit what you want in (a mix of damage, survivability, and mobility) or git gud and drop some of them in exchange for others.
>>558409908
>I don't understand the reasoning.
That anon here. I really think Red just has a god complex about certain things and gets irrationally mad when he determines people are playing his game 'wrong' or in an unintended way, even if that means making people do a much more annoying method compared to something that was perfectly fine before. Or in the case of food buffs, just never ever having an easy access to large food at all ever again. And hardly medium food except for the traveling merchant.
This was most exemplified with the torch luck fiasco though, of course.

i was expecting skeletron to rape me the most on my legendary world but somehow the bottleneck were the twins, the destroyer only took attempts (i got too cocky) and i killed skeletron first try, meanwhile the twins took me over an hour and in the end i was closing and opening the game to reset the night and not have to wait that much, i defeated them with less than 30 seconds for the night to end

>New player
>Beat the game on classic

>Die repeatedly
Wow, maybe I suck at video games

>>558412861
Expert is the sweet spot for difficulty for most people.
Master is for masochistic veterans

>>558412861
you were supposed to play expert at least 3 times then play master mode, and never play classic.
master mode is ball busting, even if you're good at video games a single slip up usually means death for a long time, it'll come to you eventually, hopefully. expert teaches you a lot of things and master makes you put it all into practice, is what i like to think

>>558413048
>never classic
not even the first playthrough just to see what everything does?

>>558412861
It's not you, master mode genuinely just sucks. Expert is a proper difficulty jump and what you should try next.

>>558413418
>not even the first playthrough just to see what everything does?
Truly, I think expert mode is better for a new player than classic. I got into terraria super late, on my xbox 360 after expert was released and before moon lord existed, and i just hopped right in and was fine. The boss patterns are much more interesting, increased health on everything makes it so fights last longer, you're more incentivized to scrape the entire lands for resources and upgrades, fish for potions, that sort of thing.
though i guess it's not entirely the worst to start in classic if you then play a full expert playthrough at some point later (even/especially if its not right after you finish classic, to prevent burnout). you get to play terraria twice and have fun each time. that's a good thing.

>>558413418
Classic is for people who aren't gamers, or young children.
Expert is for gamers
Master is for autists who played classic 6+ times already

>>558410280

Toss all those recall potions in the shimmer.
Otherwise, fishing in the desert yields the best food materials.

>boulder rain starts in the middle of old one's army

>>558413418
The amount of exclusive loot in Expert Mode alone makes it worth it, IMO. Master Mode is mostly just higher numbers + the same changes Expert Mode has, not really harder in an interesting way. Master Mode's only exclusive content are the relics (gold boss trophy things), a bunch of pets AKA chest bloat, and like one mount that Expert Mode didn't have (The Black Spot) which gets you infinite flight a little earlier.
I'm going through my first Master Mode run right now with the new update and it doesn't seem significantly harder than my Expert Mode run back in 2022, it's just slightly more punishing in all the same ways. I'd echo the other anon saying Expert will teach you what to do for Master. One of the biggest things is potion/food buffs actually mattering, needing an herb farm. Even when I have gear from a few bosses later in progression, killing the mechanical bosses without my potion buffs is very very difficult, they're a game-changer. I chug like 12 potions before any boss fight or otherwise challenging expedition. I'm pretty sure you don't ever need potions to beat anything in Classic Mode even if you're of average skill levels.

>>558419476
that works in solo yeah, but for multi you usually wanna save those recalls to turn into wormhole pots. even then though, you're only getting some of those fish back, and it takes 2 of them to make 1 seafood dinner that lasts what, 8-10 min? seems kind of inefficient

agreed on the desert having great catches, but they're spread out between flounders and lobsters, and i don't wanna be carrying two types of food if i can help it
>>558419935
i always make a dirt roof about 24 tiles up just because of that now

Ah those pylons, yeah I played with them. Shame you cant put one in a corrupted biome. I thought you were talking about the Obilisks that change the biome background or whatever, the Monoliths

Also more NPCs for housing

>>558428941
I think it only shows the connecting lines if you interact with the Pylon. If you instead just open your map while near one you can still click one to teleport, no lines shown.

Hot take : You should be able to put on display pets you found the same way you can display armors.

I kept jobbing to twins as my final mech boss in master mode they might already have a banner for my terrarian.

My strat was to kill spamtism first and I kept eating the cursed flame breath (skill issue)

>>558437175(me)
Finally beat it the next try lol. The fishing armor cost me 2 potion sets of the buff potions + a major food. After spasmatism is dead retinazor is a joke and easily facetanked.

What's a good way to set up artificial places to fish in every biome close to the angler?
I'm getting ready to enter hard mode soon but I'm going to spend a lot of time grinding items and stuff in this world instead of simply doing a quick boss rush, and I intend to do lots of fishing. Setting this up properly before I enter hard mode would be a great idea. Maybe it could be even good / big enough to farm regular enemies of each biome too, what are my options?

>>558454502
You should have as many biomes covered by your npc outposts with pylons. Every npc village I make has a fishing hole. That covers a lot of bases already. The rest you can do artificially by placing enough biome blocks, or maybe setup a minecart track/teleporter if the related biome is close enough

>>558454502
well usually I just make a 15x21 open-air box, filled with water next to my pylons, so I can quickly teleport to where I need to fish. that's 15x21 on the inside of the box, 16x23 for the frame. an example is in >>558403345

obviously you can make it look nicer than that, i just threw that together for convenince

>>558414110
Then what is legendary?

Is there a strat or something or some key item I'm missing for fighting the Deviant in Fargo's Souls? Right now it doesn't even feel realistically possible, unless I were to intentionally overgear with mid to late game hardmode items or something.

>>558420974
It definitely becomes pretty manageable once you can build for defense yeh but that doesn't change the fact that its a boring difficulty which does nothing but bump up the numbers to a somewhat unreasonable level, and this especially matters for the start of the game where you have no gear. EArly game master mode is just dying to any enemies that show up while you scramble to find something that lets you survive and its just not that fun.

How do dungeons work in skyblock? I made a platform in the caverns layer round about where it would be on a regular map with the cursed dungeon wall but nothing's spawning
Do I need to connect the surface dungeon where the clothier spawned to it?

>>558471985
I used to share this opinion, but I just started a MM playthru after doing a few expert ones, and I barely notice the difference - I'm not even good. The only difference I noticed is that I under-prepared for the first night and got my shit pushed in by zombies, because I didn't build a (good) house beforehand, there were no surface caves between my jungle and my forest, corruption was blocking off my snow, and there was nothing worth using in any of the surface chests I found besides a wand of sparking, which has no knockback. As soon as I had iron armor and sword, it was basically the same as expert.

>>558472650
you need 250 dungeon brick nearby
the mobs need to spawn on dungeon brick with an unsafe dungeon brick background that's 3-high, and you need to be in front of unsafe dungeon brick walls 3-high as well, 62-84 blocks away from the spawning platform

>>558471985
I've long wanted a custom difficulty that puts bosses at master or legendary level and common mobs at expert

>>558473065
That's kind of my point. The extra numbers add almost nothing to the experience except for a really dogshit experience the first few nights trying to gear up and hardmode contact damage chunking you like a truck.

>>558473229
>62-84 blocks away from the spawning platform
That's what fucked me, shit
Made it too compact

>>558473546
idk i've been liking it so far. the extra mastermode drops are neat and it's nice to not be melting through every boss like they're made of butter
>>558475404
that's 62-84 away horizontally btw, vertically you have to go somewhere between 35 and 47 blocks away

>>558471289
>underground ocean
Ocean is exclusively a surface biome.

I've been struggling with moon lord on death mode im kinda out of ideas. Took me a while to finally learn to use discord for the ray but then i googled how to fight him and people have like 5x more speed than me and just run with him entire map.
Im stuck basically between his 2 hands making it insanely hard to dodge the bullets. Is the fight an accessory check and i need full MS? Im a glass cannon mage

>>558488110
>Why is the solution always longer or better arenas in general.
Terraria is not just about the combat, the building isnt just there for show its the entire other half of the game. Its like asking why the solution to a hard fight is getting better weapons or grinding more levels

>>558491323
I get that but when the arena makes the difference between "practically" impossible and insanely easy its kinda lame.
Probably my biggest issue with the game so far, i found plantera, golem and the clone of calamity to be the most fun fights because of the somewhat fixed arenas.

>>558491323
NTA, but it does get a bit tiring to see every Terraria world just become 40% platform arenas since they're the easiest to make.

>>558491658
>>558491671
Admittedly yeah the most efficient option for the least amount of work is just long platform, sometimes multiple long platforms in the sky but its not like thats the only option, that arena is the shoebox of combat. You can get more creative with it if you looked at all your other options and made something better, but you dont HAVE to. Mess with teleporters, put up bubbles for honey pockets, set a bunch of heart statues around on timers, etc etc. It doesnt have to end at the long platform if that's too boring for you

>>558492267
I'm personally a fan of using a lance with minecarts. Not effective in the slightest, but really funny.

No it does randomly at certain points as well but its been forever since I've played, the wiki probably has an article about it. But if you haven't manually converted your gold, chests will do it automatically when you put more in.

Just a regular moon mask, nothing odd about it.

What's the best pre-hardmode mage armor? Is it Wizard Hat/Diamond Robe/Jungle Pants? is it full Meteor? Is it some shit with the Magic Hat or Gypsy Robe?

Is Deadly Sphere Staff better than Desert Tiger Staff?

>>558538542
I got more skeleton miners in lava caverns than in my cavern farm, so...

>>558551498
If you have big summoner levels tiger is better.
If you have have 2 summon levels (base+bewitching table) I think sphere is better.
I could be wrong my last summoner run was 2022

>>558549831
>tim's wizard hat, mystic robe, meteor pants
however, since the mystic robe is gated by RNG, the diamond robe makes a decent substitute. you could also just stick with the jungle pants instead of the meteor ones since they're pre-boss. truth be told, even though jungle armor is less offensive than the robe set mentioned prior, i still prefer it for the defense and mana cost reduction
>>558551720
probably got more tims there too

>>558514450
Foxsparks, not kidding, you can even use it as a Flamethrower like the game it came from. It does only 25 damage, but you can actually use it beyond it being an overglorified projectile spammer.

b-but fargo is a cheat mod!

>>558387249
It got a lot of balance patches and less tryhard bullshit and a while ago it dragged down the ridiculous number scaling because of the knock-on effect it was having on other mods.

>>558563361
Who the hell calls it a cheat mod if i makes everything harder so it balances itself
Its like calling calamity a cheat mod when fighting vanilla bosses.

>>558567973
If it removes gameplay for the sake of making things easier, it is a cheat mod.
Also, Fargo's is a cheat mod because of the stupidly overpowered accessories. just because it has to balance itself and fuck over Vanilla, doesn't change that fact.

>>558568869
Pots are a complete nuisance when everything is balanced around them in the modded content.

>>558569091
That's why Calamity and Fargo's always fall into an endless cycle of "convenience" and then rebalance to not make that OP.
It's a seesaw that ended with adding more and more difficulty options, until the whole system got bloated beyond belief.
Pots in vanilla are convenience, but there isn't a single boss that absolutely require one, while every encounter in Calamity and Fargo's is balanced around yourself having every single buff.

>>558569502
Well they balance vanilla bosses around them so its only fair for me to cheat the pots in a way that doesnt just make them stay permamently and still have to be farmed.

>>558569784
Anon, you don't have to justify yourself to anyone but yourself and your waifu.
Do whatever the fuck you want.

the morality of cheating is retarded, it's a video game and you're playing it solo
here's the actual question

>if you cheated/used a "qol mod" for pots would you like the game better?
>yes
>no

simple as.
Keep in mind that many people think yes but it's actually no because problem solving is part of video games, but that's their own problem with being retarded and having no sense for delayed gratification, not with the qol mods itself

You can see how literal cheats are often tolerated in high IQ communities because people understand this dynamic. A lot of noita players use the "edit wands anywhere" mod because it's just more fun than having to run back to a mountain 10 times and it adds nothing but tedium past a point. Is it cheating? Yes. Does it make the game better? Also yes. It's not mutually exclusive, even if it sometimes is

>>558570245
>A lot of noita players use the "edit wands anywhere" mod because it's just more fun than having to run back to a mountain 10 times and it adds nothing but tedium past a point. Is it cheating? Yes. Does it make the game better? Also yes.
No, it absolutely does not make the game better, in any way shape or form. If you want to edit wands anywhere you explore enough mountains for it or beat the master of masters. Keeping holy mountains in tact and having a way in and out of them are vital gameplay elements. Cheating is retarded in all shapes and forms, especially terraria "qol" mods, and anyone who uses them should be shamed vigorously.

>>558570462
>Keeping holy mountains in tact and having a way in and out of them are vital gameplay elements.
lmao

>>558570245
I was with you until you brought Noita into this.
You're just plain wrong.

Why doesn't empress bitch of fuck ever drop her goddamn magic weapons, I've got like seven Kaleidoscopes.

>>558574858
If you're a certain class the drop rate of those weapons or accessories goes down at least 50%. It may not say that in the code, but it does it anyway.

>>558575003
So, what, it drops me summoner weapons, because I'm a mage?

>>558575269
Absolutely. And if you ever play summoner, you'll only get the mage weapons. :3
(the wiki may or may not disprove this notion, but in gameplay it is always true!)

>>558575269
he's talking about the mythological "desire sensor"
it's like how when you're finally in the middle of a deep expedition with no potions of return, and the traveling merchant shows up, or how he never shows up when you actually have enough gold to buy something from him

>>558575528
Desire sensor is true in a way.
If Empress dropped the weapons I wanted right away, I wouldn't have paid any mind to it, but because she didn't I have confirmation bias that it must be true.
It's like gambler's fallacy

>>558492982
You probably placed some coins in a Piggy bank or something and when you auto stack it goes in it.

kind of a dick move on the old man for not giving me a couple seconds headstart before transforming and just letting skeletron take the free hit

I wanted to play mods and i played calamity for the 7th time, and i don't know if is boring because of the nonsense changes the mod have or because i played 7 times already

>>558580007
7 times is a lot, especially if you mean you beat scal and/or exos each time. maybe try spicing it up, death mode (+ master mode if you're retarded), infernum mode if you havent already, add wrath of the gods. maybe some funky class restrictions, or swapping classes each boss. take it slower, or take it faster if you usually take it slower.

What's the best biome to get junk for the Extractionator to turn into fishing bait?

>>558600237
I don't think it's really worth doing that as there are way better ways to get bait, but if you want to fish junk, biome doesn't matter at all, you just need a small pond and low fishing power.

>>558600919
I just seem to be getting way better luck with that than running around swinging my net.
Except in the dessert, but Scorpions are only 10 and 15 power.

>>558600237
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ARDg4XwfIa0
just build a bait farm instead

>>558600237
Not biome but minimum amount of water that you can fish in with the shittiest equipment you can muster
I learned that the hard way in skyblock

Like the others say though, there are better baits. I would recommend grubbies in the jungle, you break a background foliage and they are pretty much guaranteed to spawn

>>558569502
So many mods for so many games just spiral into an arms race with themselves.

>>558605012
I don't mind, if it was just the mods themselves, but Fargo's and Calamity have no respect for the vanilla. Especially Calamity, it just feels like the people who made Calamity just want to make their own game, but are stuck with Terraria.

i was struggling to defeat plantera in my legendary skyblock world, the strategy that worked the best was to circle around the artificial underground jungle and avoid enraging her but at times she moved too fast on her second phase and ended up killing me, then i accidentally discovered that at the right distance she can't get to you but will also not detach from the blocks and fly away, using the barrel launcher and onyx blaster worked best since those projectiles can't be deflected, i didn't even had to dodge because the spores burned away on the inferno circle.
i can't believe how easy the fight was after that.

>>558577406
technically it's very possible to not get hit upon initially summoning skeletron, but I agree it's kind of a dick move. i wouldn't change it though, it lends to the experience and it doesn't oneshot you unless you're woefully unprepared

the pink water didn't tick you off?

>>558525278
Use the jungle shrine blocks to guide you instead. At least you'll have 50% of the data needed.

Let's settle this
Warding
or
Damage
?
In Legendary mode btw.

>>558662779
I usually go 1/3rd warding 1/3 lucky 1/3 menacing.
If I'm getting shlapped around I'll add another warding though.
I have not done the maths, this is done purely on vibes

>>558662656
doesn't that only give you the rough height it generates at?

>>558662779
Whichever I roll first at the goblin tinkerer.
That said, defense does become more effective on higher difficulties, so perhaps full warding is not a bad idea. I was really struggling on my mage playthrough until I rerolled all my accessories for warding, because even with full menacing or a 50/50 mix of menacing and lucky, I still felt like I wasn't doing the damage I expected, and I was dying from the enemies breathing on me.

I feel like I'm doing something wrong with hardmode Moon Lord as a summoner. (Tiki armor with Stardust Dragon) What should I be using?

>>558664401
1 stardust dragon summon with the rest being xeno staff UFOs + stardust whip
accessories should be like
>duke, empress, or betsy wings
>soaring insignia
>papyrus scarab
>necro scroll
>celestial stone/shell
>master ninja gear
>(if mastermode) worm scarf/brain of cthulu
if you're using a flying mount instead like the witch's broom or cute fishron, then swap out your wings and insignia for the pygmy necklace and hercules beetle/summoner emblem, and your master ninja gear for a cross necklace/star veil

reforge everything to warding, or at least armored

>>558665261
How does Martian Madness work again? Do I just look for a probe over the coast?

>>558670110
In/near space near the edges of the world

>>558670110
>>558670163
this, but be sure to bring a water candle - it doesn't just increase spawnrates, it has a special interaction that makes probes have a higher chance of appearing
when you go to fight the UFOs though, I highly recommend having either the SoC or the tabi/master ninja gear so you can quickly change directions to dodge its superlaser in phase 2

Spooky vs Tiki Armor? Should I stick with Tiki? I already made Spooky just in case. I don't really wanna lose my extra whip range.

>>558675969
Beetle.
>but-
Beetle.

I cant believe i choked devourer of gods at 1.1%

Is there a way to install AutoTrash without tmodloader? That's quite literally the only mod I care about.

>>558675969
it's personal choice
with the removal of whip stacking, spooky became more appealing than tiki, but tiki is still a solid choice

>>558677883
Is beetle better than turtle even though it lacks the thorns

>>558685246
nta but yes, specifically the defense oriented shell
however, that's only if you're DYING dying
the valhalla knight chestpiece paired with the tiki helm and pants might be the best middleground between defense and offense for you

>Died five times against King Slime
Bros, maybe I suck at video games.

Holy shit I keep dying against duke with chillet, I'm trying my hardest to not cheesing it with gravitation potion.

>>558689235
been there anon
it comes down to preparedness and gear a lot of the time
a grapple hook, a double jump, and a bunch of grenades are usually all you need
a platform arena with two layers that's ~24 blocks off the ground also helps tremendously
when you're on the bottom level, drop down momentarily and then grapple back up to juke king slime into dropping down below you
when he does that, clean up any slimes on the same level as you, and chuck grenades down at him

Why is Empress so fucking smug, i just killed her pretty butterfly she should be mad.

>>558662779

>>558694573
Why stop there, go fishing for superheated blood in hell and make a lava arena.

>>558696946
Because that is complete overkill and take too long.
For my lava pit set up you just need a little bit of wood and iron.
Lava is actually easy to find. You don't have to dig down to the lava layer.
When you know where the underground dessert is, there are lava pits at the corners.

I'm post-Golem, did Pumpkin Moon, have most or all of the good Dungeon drops now. As a Summoner, what gear would be important to get before Moon Lord? Is it worth fighting Empress or Duke first or should I just go fight Lunatic Cultist and then get Stardust Dragon ASAP?

>>558776380
Duke has a good summon drop and Empress has THE summon drop, assuming you are man enough to fight her during the day.
Id say do them unless you are bored of your playthrough

Building that automagic arapaima/everything farmer underground may have been stupid, but out of the 300 platinum I got with it, I only have 120 left, and it's kind of liberating being able to trash items I don't need, even if they might fetch a pretty penny.
And on related note, this new reforging system is great, it's not quite autoreforge, but it is close enough.
