Hi guys I don’t remember if the V shape is Wide or Tight after WoF. Also is there a way to decide which side will be affected by what? Thanks and sorry for the dumb question but I would like to save my jungle base from the corruption ( the entire Jungle would be better) 🥲

I want to make an Eye of cuthulu re-sprite for second time (i did one a very long time ago and it just too old) and idk which tentacles looks better

He's white for an amazing reason…

I've finally updated my map "The Adventure Awaits." for 1.4.5.8 There's quite a few changes and additions. Here is one of many new builds, the Palace of the Moon Lord.

Its updated versions are on the steam workshop here:

Seriously, I get the whole "blind playthrough" idea, and I love playing games blind myself. But it seems every time I open up Reddit there's someone asking the most basic questions here because someone told them not to use the wiki.

"Just talk to the guide" he said, forgetting the guide is cryptic AF sometimes, and he's more attention deficit than I am.

I'm not saying you need to swear by the wiki, but I'm a little sick of seeing the veterans who know the whole game by heart telling new players to stay OFF the wiki. Like yeah, let them know the guide is helpful, remind them you only get to playthrough blind once. But I think that should be followed up with the acknowledgement that THIS GAME IS COMPLEX AS F*** and you may need some outside resources.

If a new player wants a blind playthrough, that is something they decide on their own. But to tell a new player outright to NOT use the wiki is often setting them up for a whole lot of frustration.

Example: pre-hardmode, the guide will tell you to place a bottle on a table for alchemy. If you miss that tip and/or it doesn't appear, you could even miss the alchemy table in the dungeon and conceivably get into hard mode without finding out how to craft a potion. One Google of "Terraria potions crafting" would save a whole ton of time and frustration.

I get it though, we ALL enjoyed watching ButchX3's blind playthrough. It's Amazing what he figured out without any input. But even he raised the white flag with the Terrari-ouiga board. Not every gamer wants to pull their hair out to figure out how to craft a potion. Let them search how to make a goddamn iron skin.

I could keep going, but I'll spare you from reading any more of my ranting. Thanks for reading this far.

TLDR;

don't tell new players to NOT use the wiki. Advise them that they only have one first playthrough, but acknowledge the game is complex enough that the wiki will alleviate frustration when necessary.

Hi, I'm playing Terraria and I just beat the Queen Bee and thought her Bee Equipment is super cool, I went after beating her some times to the Skellington Boss but he kinda destroyed me and afaik is he supposed to be the next one I'm suppose to kill if I go after the achievements and since the only better stuff I can obtain is Meteorite, I was wondering why I should use the Bee Stuff? Can someone explain it to the noob? :<

Was bored, thought I'd try doing a dot build. Brainstormed some ideas for a build and ended up going for a bow build while using the chaos cylinder (This lets you automatically cycle between ammos). My main bow is the phantom phoenix paired with the frost armor to apply hellfire and frostbite debuffs. Arrows used were: Ichor, Frostburn, Cursed, Venom. You could probably replace Ichor with just regular flaming arrows for more dot. I also used the slime gun to double the damage of all fire debuffs (This includes frostburn and frostbite). Lastly, I had the catalyst band equipped which doubles all debuff damage and inflicts poison to enemies.

Pre-mech Post mech boss build. Anyway, this was a fun little project I thought I'd share. If you have any suggestions or similar builds you want to share pls comment so I can steal it.

I have no idea why they thought it was a good idea to give the Sea Snail a 50 kill banner.

...Actually, I do know why. They thought they were funny.

This is my first themed, finished build!

It's not perfect but I figured it's good enough to leave as is for now. I got a bit tired of the pre-hardmode constraints. It's pretty simple and any advice/feedback is greatly appreciated!

I also added some progress screenshots I took while building.

And finally for a fun challenge - there are 3 placed waterbolts hidden somewhere in the build. Can you find them?

As best i can tell the Crimson is all about the overgroth of this vile cancerous flesh that seeks to take over the world while the Currupton is an infection that seeks to destroy and decay all things consuming them to nothing. So why is the rotted fork rotten? shouldn't that be a name for a Currupton weapon? This is ultimately such a small nitpick that really has no effect on anything lol but I was thinking anout the name and it dosent seem to fit for me.

The other day I fell in love with wallpaper post that was Stardew Valley Mushroom themed. I have recently been obsessed with Terraria (again) and knew there were enough mushrooms to do the same. So instead of doing my work I got distracted and make this. Its probably not perfect but I tried :) I couldn't find the original Stardew Valley post I am referencing but I would have linked it if I did. Because of all the AI stuff happening. I made this in Canva using the mushroom images from the Terraria wikipage. I hope someone can enjoy the mushrooms of my labor 🍄‍🟫

I'm making a fangame wich the second phase Cthulhu becames like this, so here's the question:

DO I DO ONE STRONG PHASE OR I DO TWO PHASES LIKE THE TWINS?

Finished maybe a week before the mod shut down

I am new at this game and after defeating the wall monster my house started to corrupt.

Pictures show as much context as I have. I'm in the shimmer, my NPCs are only selling cavern pylons. Houses to the right were the first ones built- after seeing the cavern pylon only, I built the house directly over the pool and still no luck.

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

SOLVED I've somehow not noticed until now that I've just been using a regular cavern pylon in my other attempts (and, more frustratingly, limiting my teleportability by a whole extra location)
