Started playing this last night. Man does this game has an insane amount of content. I have a couple of questions though. Do I need to worry about my house being attacked during a Blood Moon if I'm not there? Or do enemies just spawn around me? Are iron doors better than wooden ones, or is it purely aesthetic? And is Hardmode per character or per world? RatHat fucked around with this message at 13:38 on Oct 8, 2013 |

Is there really no way to pause without Auto-pause? That's really annoying. I guess tabbing out might pause it though.

So I know I'll die if I go into the dungeon without killing a certain boss first, but can I climb over it instead? I was trying to go to the ocean/edge of the map and it's kinda in the way.

Wow, Eater of Worlds was really easy. I didn't even need to heal since it seemed like every segment I killed dropped a heart. It was annoying having the goblin army spawn at the exact same time as when the Eater of Worlds spawned though. I didn't have to fight both at once but when I got home my house was being invaded.

Does Corruption/Hallow/Crimson spread downwards as well? Would the entire map be infected given enough time in Hardmode?

What's the easiest way to find Floating Islands? Gravitation potions? How many would I need to explore all of a small world?

If that's true then there should be a sky island right next to my house. EDIT: There wasn't RatHat fucked around with this message at 22:19 on Oct 9, 2013 |

Wow, I thought traps were merely annoying until I ran into an explosive one. Any easy way to notice those besides switching to an item that lets you see Also, does the Goblin Tinkerer spawn in alternate cavern layers, like Mushroom/spider/jungle ect.?

From what I've read of corruption/hallow/crimson, yes empty air will work. That's why making a sky house is the easiest way to protect your npcs from it.

goodness posted:Why does nobody ever talk about Meteor Armor + Space Gun? Its such a good mid combo and pretty easy to get. It's alright, but even at the level when it's useful it's outclassed by Jester/Unholy arrows at mid-range. It was nice having something to use mana for, the early game is really bare for spells and poo poo.

goodness posted:How so? It does just as much damage, shoots faster, uses no mana and is more accurate since the shots travel really fast. Jester and Unholy arrows can hit multiple times with a single arrow, the gun can't.

Huh, my Dryad thinks she's in a mushroom biome because of my small glowing mushroom farm. EDIT: Does the infinite liquid glitch still work with 1.2? RatHat fucked around with this message at 09:40 on Oct 10, 2013 |

Speaking of UI, is there anyway to use potions in your inventory without having to drag them to your character? Ditto with the Magic Mirror.

I'm pretty much done everything pre-hardmode(only need to explore a Pyramid and the Crimson on another map now), how much should I prepare before fighting Wall of Flesh? I'll probably put a barrier around my house to prevent it from being corrupted/hallowed, but that's all I can think of. Doing that won't piss off my NPCs right? And new ones will just teleport in?

# ¿ Oct 12, 2013 08:40 |

I thought you needed to have an entrance of NPCs to move in though. Wouldn't a barrier around my house cause issues with that? And yeah I meant the desert pyramid.

Cyberventurer posted:I just lucked into a Rod of Discord and there's no way this isn't getting nerfed at some point. There's absolutely no mana cost when using it and it doesn't require line of sight to your target, so you can basically zip around to any open area 3 times per second as long as your character can fit in the targeted spot. Eh, I dunno. It's a non-combat item and it's endgame, so getting to zip around anywhere you want when you're near the end of the game is fine to me. Ditto if wings that let you infinitely fly ever get released. EDIT: I wonder if it could be used to skip Plantera. Is there a guardian for the forest temple like the dungeon?

Ugh, there's no easy way to search for the Lava charm is there? At the moment I'm making small worlds and exploring the caverns with Spelunker potions.

Can anyone confirm if sandstone is immune to corruption/hallow? It seems like the easiest material to make my barrier around my house out of. EDIT: Also I just realized I should probably move my Deathweed farm and quarantine it too. RatHat fucked around with this message at 08:59 on Oct 13, 2013 |

I didn't use pots for my garden/farm. Much quicker to grow and much quicker to harvest.

death .cab for qt posted:Did Red seriously gently caress up the NPC AI again or something? Because I have a house filled with rooms that are all perfectly fine, and they all have wooden platforms that are easily accessible to everybody and should be extremely easy to reach, but this loving Dye Trader is refusing to go to his compatible housing and instead spends the entire night running around the main floor opening doors to the outside like he's the loving Guide V 2.0 NPCs won't jump up or down platforms unless they literally cannot move anywhere else. Either block him in with dirt under the platforms or go mining or something and he'll teleport to his room(and never come back down).

Is there no trophy for King Slime? I guess he's not considered a boss, even though he has a message when he appears and when he dies.Anatharon posted:What're the new NPCs? The OP didn't actually indicate any. A: You don't really need it since enemies only spawn near you, but what I did is set up barriers around all the doors, put transistors on them, and hook them up so I just flip the switch when a Blood Moon happens. A much simpler way is to just put something in the way of the door so it can only open outwards. Monsters only open doors inwards so they won't be able to get in; goblins can though since they just destroy doors. B: Only if you build your house high enough that worms won't be able to reach it. Worms can pass through all blocks otherwise.

Be careful when destroying demon altars. Each one you destroy turns a random stone block in your world into Hallow/Corruption so it can gently caress up a quarantine if you don't notice it.Cicadalek posted:is it possible to make a crimson biome in a world that didn't start with one? I brought in a bunch of crimstone blocks to my corruption world and filled an underground chamber with them, but no crimson enemies seem to be spawning Pretty sure it is possible but you won't have any hearts so it's kind of pointless.

Theoretically if you tore down every natural wall in the game and replaced it with your own, would it stop 99% of enemies from spawning?

I read on the wiki that it was possible but when I saw it I thought Assuming both drops are 1% and my math is right, it would be a 1/10000 chance or 0.001% for both to drop.

Wow, the Twins hosed me up. I barely managed to beat the Destroyer with the Uzi I found and tons of meteorite bullets but once the Twins got to their 2nd stage they roasted me with their flamethrower. I'm gonna build a skybridge and try that strategy.
