He is hardmode only, but other than that it sounds like you should have him moving in.

It needs to be an above ground mushroom biome, not something you find in the caverns.

If you just started hard mode break some altars to make the new ores appear. For me he always has appeared after breaking some altars.

My base is pretty high up, which is both good and bad. Good because the Destroyer had trouble getting to my sky bridge. Bad because wyverns and harpies kept bothering me during the fight. I managed to make a Masterful Crystal Storm, which basically meant I could poke my head over the edge of my bridge, rain death on the Destroyer, who couldn't shoot up at me, then run along my bridge to kill the orbs for mana. Made the pick from the Hallowed bars, went to get the jungle ore, almost got a full armor set + sword made. Going with magic helm first because magic seems like it's gonna be most useful. Got a Mana Flower made, too. I've got a Mechanical Eye, so I can summon the Twins whenever I feel ready, but I need more Daybloom for potions. I hate the gravitation potion change. I can't use that poo poo in boss fights. Completely screws me up, so air battles aren't gonna happen. Gonna need to look up boss arena designs for the Twins. I only vaguely know what they do (One does fire, one lasers, right?) and I've heard you want an arena with walls of some type to block the shots. What do you fellas use?

I just jump around and dodge (almost) everything the bosses shoot. Wings and lightning boots are required. e: except for the Destroyer, which I facetank because the drones drop enough hearts to survive and I get to pierce more of it that way.

Demon Wings, since it was all I had the mats for. My jungle is being rapidly devoured by the Crimson. It kinda angled straight through it. Should I be worried? Also, while I beat the Destroyer, the Destroyer still managed to beat me. My keyboard's D key died not long after my last post.  Even in death The Destroyer is an rear end in a top hat!

I'm new to the game and I found something that looked cool when I was exploring underground, so I hit it. First with a pickaxe, and when that did nothing, a hammer. It then hit me for 50 health. It was some sort of red glowing thing that, upon close examination in torchlight, looked something like a red face sticking out of a wall. What is this thing, and is it going to eat me and/or destroy my base because I have angered it?

It has further use after you've beaten the big hellboss; the Guide will tell you when it's time for that. It's not dangerous, save for cutting your health in half if you try to break it.

I don't even have a real base yet, just a small room made of stone with a rope up to it.

I'm currently replaying the game and am almost back to the end of the 1.0 content (i've just built an obsidian generator and will grab some hellstone to make the Hell armour), but what do i do after that? I know i'm to kill a new boss in hell which then activates hard mode and spawns the new biomes. I've read that these boims spread and wreck your base, so i've separated it from the rest of the world by a 3 block wide layer of wood (i'm sure i read that's what you're supposed to do. I also read that there are base destroying clowns that appear and that I should shield my base with a 3 block deep wall of dungeon brick, which i'm going to do now. Is that right though? Can someone summarise the next steps? Like which ores/armors do i build, then which bosses do i kill and how do i summon them and in which order does it need to be done? Also, my lava duplicator seems to have bugged out. I'm using the inlet/outlet valve trick and the "flow" of the lava has frozen in midair and isn't producing any more. IS there a way to fix this?

Clowns don't blow buildings up any more, so dungeon brick is unnecessary. The new biomes can spread, both on the surface and through underground stone or sand, and a 3-block-wide barrier will block it. However, only Corruption/Crimson will actually break your base; your base can exist in Hallow just fine. Once you've beaten the hell boss, use the item it drops on demon/crimson altars. This will spawn the new ores. A Hellstone pick will be able to mine one of them, then you'll need to make a pick (or drill) of that to mine the next tier. There are three tiers. In Hardmode, the three mechanical bosses will sometimes attack you at night until you defeat them. Summoning items for them will also occasionally drop randomly, again until you defeat them. You can also craft summoning items yourself - ask the Guide about lenses, rotten chunks, vertebrae or bones to see how. Of the three, the Destroyer is probably the easiest because it has many segments and is susceptible to piercing. The Twins are probably the hardest because they are highly mobile. You can fight them in any order, though, and you'll be able to make useful gear from the drops of any of them. The third tier of the new ores is reccommended to have a fighting chance, as well as other items and equipment from the new content across the world.

Kin posted:Can someone summarise the next steps? Like which ores/armors do i build, then which bosses do i kill and how do i summon them and in which order does it need to be done? The Wall of Flesh boss in Hell will drop a new hammer. In hardmode, use that hammer to destroy demon altars. Every time a demon altar is destroyed, veins of one particular hardmode ore will spawn. In order of increasing power, the ore will be cobalt/palladium, mithril/orichalcum, and adamantite/titanium. Start with the weaker ores and work your way up, focusing on improving your drills first. The Destroyer is probably the first boss you'll fight and defeat, although all of them will randomly spawn from time to time. http://terraria.gamepedia.com/Hardmode

It's also worth noting that beating a hard mode boss will slow the spread of hallow/corruption/crimson to almost nothing. Plus you can easily undo any environmental changes with a special gun you can buy from a certain NPC.

Actually, beating one of the old mechanical HM bosses (Twins, Destroyer, Skel Prime) apparently speeds it up, whereas killing Plantera or Golem is what slows it to an inconsequential state.

Big post about pretend sword bases incoming! Here's the entryway, where the hilt meets the blade. I'm gonna be lining more cool banners along that ceiling. Once I run out of room, I'll be picking and choosing but for now, if it's not already up there, it goes up! You can see my EoC trophy from this shot, too. The blade is made of Tin Wall, the inside is Grey Brick, and the hilt is made of Green Brick and Green Tiled wall. Knocking down the above-ground portion of the dungeon gave me almost all the material I needed for that. (Which I had to find in another world, this world's is pink.)  Rest of the hilt. I'll be putting more trophies along the hilt with the EoC one, once I start getting some. My "rare/valuable items with no immediate use" tend to go into the upper chest, sorted by category. (Paintings, materials, clothing, furniture, etc.)  The World Spawn dumps you in the big room. The sign says "Welcome to the BFS! Help yourself to whatever you need from the chest. Exit's up above." The chest has some iron armor and tools, and a few stacks of torches and potions. It mostly exists in case I ever decide to take this world online.  Below that, empty space! I've been focusing on the outer parts of the blade more, so this area still lays mostly neglected. Not sure what I'll do with it. Some of it's almost certainly gonna be storage, but aside from that...  More empty space! It's called the Big loving Sword for a reason.  My base at the base. Also, more empty space that I don't know what to do with. You can see the blade-in-progress really well here.  And here's the whole thing for scale/the OP.  It's also really starting to look pretty fuckin' sick on the minimap. Work to still be done Finishing the Blade is priority 1. Which means I'm gonna need a lot more tin. After that, I'll probably finish the inside, get everything solid, so I can go hardmode without worrying about contamination. Once that's done, I'll slowly be converting each of the generic apartments to match its occupant. For now, though, I've got enough to do.

I put a reasonable amount of effort into getting something and if the RNG fucks me then I just add it in via TEdit. I put AFK farming and such on the same level of 'not doing it right' so at that point I might as well just save myself the effort. I spent like 4 hours trying to get an Inferno Fork and then just added it in, gently caress it.

I'm the same. I admire the ingenuity of some farming setups, but I hate the fact that they are necessary (in any game) Some things are plain daft too. I've just edited in some leaf wings rather than engage in the pointless busywork of moving the wizard to the jungle at night time. That's either terrible design, or the wiki is trolling me.
