He said he was connecting to my IP, it didn't even occur to me he was looking at the external IP but that's exactly what was going on. Working fine now. Haha don't worry, I'm pretty sure everyone has done that at some point.

Sjonnar posted:So I've been experimenting with an idea for a base sunk into a lake, and during the construction of said base, i have discovered the most annoying creature in all of Terraria: the duck. Is it just because they never stop quacking? I wanted too make my base over a huge lake originally but didn't want to bother setting up a pump system or go into hardmode for the bottomless bucket.

Verviticus posted:so whats the trick to events like halloween and frost moon other than "cheese it with vamp knives and spectre armor" Nothing that plantera drops would really perform all that well at pumpkin moon. If you're good at aerial dodging, you can harvest a few pumpking / mourning wood kills with a megashark, but you won't make it to the final phases, which means they won't be guaranteed to drop anything. Still, if you're lucky, you'll get a bat scepter, and that plus spectre armor will get you to the final phases so you can farm all the drops.

A simple stairstep water duplicator with an opening that the excess water can flow out of will fill even a decent-sized lake while you build your base. Gimme a sec, i'll rebuild one as an example and post a screenshot. E: Here's the basic design for the duplicator. Excess water overflows from that hole above the inlet pumps at the bottom. And here's the full base (still a work in progress) showing the size of the lake that it filled. It was full long before i got this far - i basically just built the outline of the base and started filling the lake around it, and i've been filling in the space since.

Twins I was able to take down with wings, a good bow and hallow arrows. Fly up above the twins while shooting down so the falling stars hit them. When your wings run out juke around the twins and shoot up while they come down at you. Works best with the stormbow but I never needed a potion so I imagine other bows could work. the hallow arrows are absolutely insane with a fast fire rate and large enemies

Then I did halloween after moon lord and got 70+ pumpking trophies.

The Frost and Pumpkin Moons are balanced to be done with Spectre/Shroomite/Beetle tier gear on Normal difficulty, but you'll need an arena with traps and whatnot. On expert you want Fishron+ gear.

I made my own, and with a teleporter to the nurse it's perfect for farming Expert Moon Lord. Especially after you get the Star Wrath! Hey cool, glad I could help. Thanks for trying it out in expert mode, I've been meaning to give it a shot but I just haven't gotten around to it yet. Honestly the fact that visiting the nurse is required on expert is slightly disappointing to me, I don't have a base built on my expert hardmode world because so that's gonna be a pain in the rear end. Evil Fluffy posted:This works in expert? He hits like a truck filled with trucks made out of other trucks, or does going full beetle armor + warding accessories make it bearable? Even on normal mode if you're only in beetle armor and have the listed accessories all warding the moon lord can kick your rear end if you don't have potion buffs (I haven't tried it in the defensive version of the beetle armor yet, though I don't imagine it'd help enough, you may just need those buffs). I guess it might work in beetle armor on expert if you have a teleporter to the nurse. Unless you don't want to bring in gear from non expert worlds I recommend you kill him on a normal world a couple times and get Solar Flare armor, because taking 30% less damage on a hit occasionally helps a lot.

Syndlig posted:This base is nuts! Did you just dynamite out the area surrounding it to make the lake, or did you manage to find a natural valley to fit it in? Also, what material are you using for the blocks/backwalls? It looks really nice, and I'm tempted to steal the idea. I believe that's stone slabs, which are made with stone at the heavy work bench. Also I agree that base is badass and makes me want to nuke half a world to make a big rear end lake.

I always told myself that when the next big update came I'd make a proper giant skybase, so now I'm making a start with an obligatory Way Too Big Tree Still need to round out my critter and painting collection, but I'm mostly happy with it. I particularly like how the painter's little art project turned out.

Well. poo poo. I updated to Windows 10, and now this is more or less unplayable. Thanks to everything suddenly stopping reading my mouse inputs after I hit any key. On the upside, my desktop isn't upgraded yet, so I guess I can play there. Edit: Ah, there we go. gently caress you Windows 10, tell me when you implement stupid "features" like a delay on mouse activity after using the keyboard. Or better yet, just be sufficiently not-stupid enough to turn it off while playing a game. Supremezero fucked around with this message at 13:37 on Jul 30, 2015 |

Man, since they're adding a few bits and pieces here and there I'd love for an accessory that lets you place blocks in midair without needing a backwall up . That and, like, a standing closet that'd let you swap styles and clothes colors whenever you want since we can already mess with hair.

Also, what material are you using for the blocks/backwalls? It looks really nice, and I'm tempted to steal the idea. Both, kind of. I found a natural valley, brought my previous character (the one in the pictures) over with his drill mount to make it bigger, and used the dirt and poo poo to reinforce the left side of the valley/lake. And most of the blocks and backwalls are indeed stone slabs. Thyrork posted:You forgot the imitation quack, which redeems them in so many ways. It really doesn't.

Thanks to whoever suggested to start fishing ASAP. Started a fresh world did some spelunking the first day and found a Snowball Launcher, built a house for my Guide and a Merchant, got the bug catching net, and spent the next night gathering fireflies and wrecking zombies with snowballs. The next day I traveled out the an ocean with an Iron Rod and Fireflies as bait and got a Reaver Shark, Sawtooth Shark, a couple Wooden and Iron Crates and one Gold Crate in about 30 minutes. Also the basic fish are great to just collect and sell off and I have had no money issues.

Building time~ This is the first base I ever made, back somewhere near when goblin invasions were first added. I was so proud. Compare and contrast to my current base, though I haven't finished the Big rear end Tree yet, and I still need to fill the pond near the bottom.

I had some neat water and cave features near my spawn, so I tried to build into it more than my previous efforts. Nothing super-fancy, but I think I made some fun choices. I built my mushroom farm too close to my witch doctor's house though, so it's showing up as mushroom biome instead of jungle. I particularly dig the mechanic's house and my alchemy lab (inspired by a post earlier in this thread!).
