I can't believe that all these patches have been free updates. In most other games, stuff like these would have been DLC or something. Looking forward to jumping back into this after I get home from work.

Internet Kraken posted:My gear currently consists of basically nothing. I have some crappy metal armour and a tungsteen shortsword, that's it. I've been looking for gold to finish a new pickaxe since from memory you need it to break certain blocks. I found a bunch of tungsteen though so I was gonna make a suit out of that and then...I dunno. Keep looking for gold and hope a medusa doesn't come out of nowhere and chain stun me again. Seriously what the gently caress I was just minding my own business and suddenly this snake lady falls from above and turns me into a rock over and over. This changed a while back. You can make magic staves from 8 of a gemstone, and a few bars of low tier ore (Copper through Platinum). They fire projectiles at a fairly fast rate and don't drain too much mana. They're very decent to have early on, and it takes a while for the higher tier staves to fall off. I dunno if this is really gonna inspire anyone, since it's really basic (and quite frankly a mess), but here's mine. Gonna hollow out the middle to display all my statues, clothes, and armor.

DarthJeebus posted:Ugh, I forgot how burned out I get trying to contain the corruption/crimson after the wall. I should probably just stop being attached to my worlds and just loot them for what I can before moving onto the next. Using bombs to dig 4 wide tunnels to hell is easy enough but everything else gets overrun and there isn't poo poo I can do about it. By the time I have it all contained, my world will be practically empty from all the digging. If you kill Plantera, the corruption/crimson and hallow spread rates will slow down to what it was before you started hardmode. At that point, you don't have to worry about containing them anymore. And if things really get bad, you can use the Clentaminator to help fix things.

I've only just now discovered where my caves were and I'm in hardmode. https://terramap.codeplex.com/ Despite the fact that it says it's up to date with 1.3.0.1, it'll work with 1.3.0.3, though there might be some oddities.

Is there even a tell for her pertrification attack? I don't know when it's safe to face her and when it isn't. I was wondering what the big fuss about Yoyos were. They were pretty decent, better than swords, but I didn't think they were super powerful. Then I crafted a yoyo bag. That's just completely ridiculous.

Kly posted:does not facing her even work? that was the first thing I tried after one of them killed me for the first time and it didnt seem to matter if my back was to her or not. Somewhat? It might be a bit finicky, but most of the time, facing away from her usually prevents petrification. LightningSquid posted:About how long do super rare drops stick around for? I've got a farm set up for the Crimson/Frost keys, but I don't want them to despawn. Until there's too many dropped items in the world. I believe that's like thousands of items before they stop despawning.

So the fall damage from Medusa's petrification can actually be negated if you use a Featherfall potion. Guess that's one way to make them still relevant.

The Moon Monster posted:My dumb base is basically done. Is there any way to coax the Party Girl into my lair or do I just have to get lucky? You have to get lucky. She has a 2% chance of showing up every day once you have 14 NPCs. And an empty house. Unfortunately, that also applies if she gets killed, so if you want her item drop, be prepared to wait a while.

No Safe Word posted:No you just got lucky. Like when I fired up 1.3 and got a Slime Staff in like the first 10 slimes I killed only to then decide with my friends that we'd start up a Mediumcore Expert server, and in the interest of being fair I didn't bring the staff Oh. I'm happy I got the key, but I still think the way they were handled was dumb. At least they don't have to be crafted anymore.

Nuebot posted:As much as I like 1.3 I'm not really feeling most of these patch notes aside from the medusa one. It feels lot like those times in say, FFXI, when they had a super hard boss no one could kill they'd get mad and buff it any time someone did manage to kill it because they were "exploiting" the game to do so. Maybe the problem is that people have to exploit the game to kill your boss, because it's not fun to fight. The moon lord is kind of a poo poo boss especially if you're a melee character and the cool factor wears out quick because it has such a ridiculous amount of health. His attack patterns are way too complicated for a game like Terraria. The combat is horrible and has like no depth to it.

RareAcumen posted:I feel the same way! Those and Slime Rains. They weren't officially implemented before they got nerfed. I'm surprised Yo-yos in general haven't gotten nerfed yet. And I really hope they don't. They're one of the few viable melee weapons now.

It takes like 10 minutes even with optimal gear though(by optimal gear I mean SDMG+A ton of crit+A bunch of Stardust Cells). I tried using a hoik loop to deal with it, but I couldn't get ithe Dungeon Guardian trapped in the middle. (Please don't get rid of hoiking.) Thanks for letting me know about the Cosmic Car Key! Took a while, but he went down.

Apparently the Jungle decided to eat my Corruption that spawned from the Wall of Flesh. I didn't know that was a thing that could happen. The area in the red circle is the only bit of Corruption that survived. At least the Hallow spawned normally.

whiteshark12 posted:Is there any way to pull a 'seed' or something similar from a terraria world to create a fresh copy of the same map? You can make a copy of the map file. But if you're asking for getting a fresh version of a world you made a lot of changes to, I don't think there's a way to do that right now.

Internet Kraken posted:Do mimics have some different spawning than regular enemies? I'm trying to get the toy sled for my brother but I'm so sick of grinding these stupid ice chests when they spawn so rarely. I have a setup where I just drop through a ton of layers of an ice biome but mimics still only spawn once every 5 minutes on average which sucks. It doesn't seem like I can just wait in place for them too spawn offscreen like every other enemy though so I can't really afk farm them either. Try using battle potions or water candles. I find that rare enemies show up way more often when they're in effect. I even see double Mimics a lot when I chug a battle potion.

Jastiger posted:I had a blast with Minecraft, and enjoy a lot of character progression. But, maybe I'm spoiled by that. The idea of an "end game" is alien to me in these kinds of games. I walked around a bit, and had a really hard time actually building anything. It just wasn't' intuitive, but I feel like there is a lot I'm missing. I just saw there was an extensive WIKI so I'll check that out. That's probably for the best. I should say that Terraria has a really slow start, but its a lot better than it used to be, so you came in at about the right time.

SirSamVimes posted:Make shortswords able to poke in any direction. Bam, they now have a reason to exist. Faster stabs than a broadsword swing, but a swing has more damage per hit, a wider arc and better range. If you want to avoid players having a viable weapon from the start, give them a "poking stick" which functions exactly as the current copper shortsword. Isn't this basically a Spear? Then again, there's not too many pre-hardmode spears. e:fb
