Huh, just had a thought. They've nerfed most cheese tactics out but not some. Wonder if they remembered to nerf the cheese tactic of standing in weak mob statues (jellyfish, slimes, crabs), tossing in a timer or bouncing on a pressure plate, and absorbing damage while the Star Veil or Cross Necklace give you extended iFrames so that you last longer when farming or fighting bosses. For that matter, do they even know about the extreme cheese tactic of using The Horseman's Blade on those weak mobs you're spawning in? There's almost no higher form of damage in the game depending on your setup, and it kills everything offscreen so you can just go pick up drops later.

Dumb Lowtax posted:Rehashing a major derail several pages ago, but no, it's not. Corruption only overtakes the surface jungle at worst; it cannot spread effectively in the underground jungle. No one has ever had their underground jungle get replaced by corruption no matter how long they let it spread unchecked. There is no screenshot of this happening, among the huge playerbase. The mechanics of spreading are nerfed. You don't have to worry about your jungle, and the other biomes aren't hurt by it anyway. I have a corruption above a jungle and when I went to hardcore I got, and continue to have almost no underground corruption. For surface stuff I'll just clentaminate it later if it bothers me.

Sorry for the crap picture. 3 pumps set up in the little box as In Out In, connect the Out and one In to a 1/4 second timer to cycle fluid, connect the other In to an Out in your Vat and use a 1 sec timer. Apply your bucket to the T-section in the blue wire. If it's your first bucket of honey, let it cycle into the system, then just hold right click with your bucket. Works with lava too, and also water with a little fiddling.

This started as a desire to protect the western ocean from corruption's vile influence, and morphed into something bigger.  Now to do the same for the other two corruption areas in the jungle.   This snapshot feature is pretty cool. edit: for best viewing, r-click, open in new tab and zoom in edit2: have some more First house, gradually morphing upwards. So many chests.. organization is really nice.

The way armor in Terraria works, it reduces damage by half/three-quarters/all of your defense value for every hit you take, depending on your difficulty mode. It's a flat reduction, so enemy damage needs to go up in a linear way to keep up with it. If hardmode enemies didn't do almost as much damage as boss enemies do, they wouldn't be able to harm you at all. If bosses did much more damage than standard enemies do, they would splatter you on contact.

yeah i know how armor works, but when attacks that are telegraphed and slow from the 6th or 7th hardmode boss is only a little bit stronger than an enemy you encounter in masses, and have a way harder attack to avoid, immediately upon entering hardmode it just feels completely out of whack. like bosses feel more or less the same as they did in expert just a bit more punishing when you make a mistake, but invasions and just general trash mobs feel extremely difficult even with shroomite gear

They hit really hard, but everything dies quickly enough that I usually don't think it matters much. The problem with bosses for me tends to be damaging them fast enough to stay alive while my healing is on cooldown. Regular enemies don't come after you in the same way, so you can more easily just take care of the immediate and then hunker down a little. It's not just about the numbers.

watho posted:other biomes are definitely hurt by it, desert and snow biomes are highly susceptible to spread which will make your towns inhabitable Snow biomes are a real bitch to maintain now since according to the wiki they require 1500 blocks rather than the usual 300.

Even after getting the clentaminator and going crazy with it there are still a few patches there where it shifts to crimson.

Almost finished with a run of 1.3 with thorium mod. It's really fun! The pre hardmode stuff is perfection. The beholder boss and sets are awesome too. Unfortunately post plantera the game sort of implodes. -Abyssion is a very poorly designed fight -Magic users have even more tools to become death stars -Bard and thrower are bad -healer is functionally immortal Using fallen paladin armor, silk scarf, the golem regen trinket and a few other defense and regen boosts you can achieve like 60 hp/s with 120 defense and 50% damage reduction. We beat moon lord in a trio with me standing perfectly still the whole fight. Abyssion also drops a trinket that makes you immobile and immortal but do no damage. For the above setup with less work get +aggro and use that. Apparently for 1.4 they're redesigning the mod entirely so I cant wait for that. Some of the designs and gear fits seamlessly into the world.

In the past 5 ingame days, despite not having the sextant yet, the Angler has given me 3 duplicate fishing lines and 2 earrings (I have all other accessories, and made the Tackle Bag as soon as I could.) Made a bug report since this seems grossly wrong.

So, there was that discussion a while back about how hallow won't affect things like desert pylons, but does the same hold true for fishing? Since my hallow sorta... And I'm not sure if I'm just having bad luck doing the Angler's daily or if the oasis counts solely as fishing in hallow. And while there's another oasis on the other side of the map, that desert got nailed by corruption. I might just have to make a new lake in the bit of desert by the dungeon.

If this is actually true then my zero regrets starting over in Journey mode has hit negative value.

Just went to my snow biome for the first time in hardmode and it seems the corruption "V" pattern completly consumed it. Besides having to put the NPCs who like snow in another biome, will I have to worry about anything else like eventually losing snow biome enemies?

random question: if I somehow managed to wall off the entire world (no background walls that aren't player placed and no gaps), that would stop all mobs from spawning except for invasions and bosses, correct? There's infinite glass(sand) from antlions / sand guns with ammo buffs, infinite stone from gem trees, infinite obsidian from infinite water+lava.. it's doable, but would it be worth it.

to everyone who's using the 05162020 seed, are you also having trouble finding adamantium/titanium? I've been digging around like a maniac with spelunker potions active and only found enough to make a titanium forge and an adamantium pick smash more altars? I guess since you have to smash six altars to get all the ores to spawn I'll need to smash 12 to get the same amount you'd normally get from 6?
