Yeah I was kinda debating whether shimmer should be allowed, but shimmer is cool and allows for interesting strategic plays like this, so I'll probably allow it.
In the future, you could use stacks of 100 gold coins as platinum. In a chest, I'm pretty sure you can stack coins up to 100, its only in your inventory that they auto-craft. That way you could buy the clentaminator or something.
I think they autocraft if they reach 100 from picking coins up off the ground, however, you should be able to manually craft them back to the other currencies. But, that may break the rules since you have an invalid item PERIOD, and you can't craft using one.
Happy to see Mana Regeneration Potion getting some use, it's so much nicer than spending an accessory slot on a Mana Flower and constantly burning through potions.
You should see the exact number of items banned and not banned, it would be interesting to see the split of items banned and items not banned, as well as a percentage. (Mostly just want to see how luck or unlucky you are)
@@liamd3484 "perfectly balanced" "murders half of the members of an ecosystem instantly destabilizing it" thanos probably couldn't count very high either so he probably wouldn't have an issue with it
If it's something you'd be interested in, I think I could make a script to generate a texture pack based on the banned items list that would overlay a red x over the item if it is banned. Let me know!
Was any of the gladiator armor banned? Just 2 pieces can bring you close to the 10 defense benchmark if it wasn't banned. Not to mention the drop rates from hoplites are a little more forgiving at 5% per drop. I'm glad you got the armor and tools you needed to progress in this challenge though, can't wait to see part 2!
I am glad that you finally realized mana regeneration potions are the only thing you need for mana regen. It always pains me so much when people use or rely on mana potions, as the mana sickness debuff is actually crippling and nobody seems to realize that it's entirely unnecessary.
yep, same ive always felt that the mana flower was a bit unnecessary to take up an entire accessory slot at least until you ACTUALLY need it (last prism is sad without mana flower) the downtime isnt too bad with just a mana regen potion, and weapons like razorblade typhoon hardly even care about the downtime
And not only that, Wall of Flesh is one of the worst fights for it. If any fight actually gives you the opportunity to stand stilll, you can get all your mana back basically instantly with Regen active.
Mana sickness isn't that big of a deal. It's not "crippling" as long as you don't guzzle down potion after potion like a madman. Assuming you drink 1 potion every 5 seconds (worst-case scenario), your DPS averages out to 7/8 of your "real damage." There are only a few instances in Terraria where mana can be used up too quickly, such as with the Last Prism, but that's kind of its quirk. Besides, losing out on 1/8 of your damage just to be able to spam mage-style seems worth it in the end.
If you can, I think a real-time mod to fetch the item ID and crosscheck it against your spreadsheet to display a little red X icon in the item window if something is banned could be really helpful not just to viewers but also to yourself so you don't have to keep switching out to ctrl+F a spreadsheet. Or just change the banned item's text to a strong red color, idk.
Yeah that would be great, if someone wanted to make that, that would be awesome. Idk how easy it would be to check the spreadsheet, but it would probably be better anyway to just set the mod to ban a random half of the items when using a world. Then you could make different seeds and play it again with different items.
@@WandofSparking looking up information in a dataset is easy; taking action based off that information is the tricky part and where the mod comes in. In psuedocode, it would look like this: 1. When Item is in inventory, check item ID 2. Look up item ID in Ban List and return adjacent cell 3. If lookup returns BANNED, then display Red X 4. If lookup returns ALLOWED, then end. Repeat for all It'd be easier if you aren't using Google Sheets lol but I'm sure a workaround could be created
I think it would be more useful long-term if it wasn't based on this specific spreadsheet anyway, and just banned a random half of the items for any specific world seed, if that's possible.
@@Bombedrumbum It's possible to download the google sheet into a file that a mod can then open and read. I believe it even supports exporting as CSV, which is an extremely easy to parse format. But, it would definitely make sense to just randomize the allowed/disallowed items based on the world seed.
@@WandofSparking I agree with you both that syncing it to the world would be best going forward. Only problem is that your current playthrough already has a set list for what's disallowed
It is similar for sure, but this one I can expand it to include all types of items instead of just weapons, armour, etc. and we might still be able to pull it off.
@@yeeterdeleter0117 Dude, banned items can be in his inventory as long as it isn't used physically. Otherwise almost all craftable items would be banned just because one common ingredient is banned.
@@yeeterdeleter0117 I feel like you didn't even watch to halfway through the video. Even banned items can be useful by his rules, so auto trashing banned items would be detrimental. And stupid.
honestly major props to you for adding a list of all the songs you used to the description, you have no idea how many times i've heard absolutely bangin music in a youtube video but never been able to find it
hey- hey, hey you, yeah you, the one who's about to write a reply telling me to use shazam. yeah, that's right, i'm talking to you. in most cases shazam isn't an option because either the song is from a video game or the person in the video is talking over it.
High quality content as usual, and a very original challenge idea as well. I'm a big fan of how you make and adapt the rules of your challenges, and this one is no different. Thanks!
This would be really interesting for multiplayer/co-op. If you both had a different set of banned items, you could work together by giving each other things you cant use but the other can
For the next challenge of 33% items: If you can't use a necessary item, you can randomize which other item to delete from list so you can manipulate this (on the beginning of the challenge)
Bone Torches were allowed and you could have bought those from that skeleton merchant you found. the torches in his stock actually swap from regular to bone depending on if you talk to him in the first half or second half of the in-game minute, which is one second. so basically if you click on him like 3 times you'd see bone torches
The cat (Felis catus) is a domestic species of small carnivorous mammal. It is the only domesticated species in the family Felidae and is commonly referred to as the domestic cat or house cat to distinguish it from the wild members of the family. Cats are commonly kept as house pets but can also be farm cats or feral cats; the feral cat ranges freely and avoids human contact. Domestic cats are valued by humans for companionship and their ability to kill rodents. About 60 cat breeds are recognized by various cat registries.
I think basic crafting stations should be included regardless, otherwise it’s kind of hell to do a run like this. And only half of the items will be craftable if that, so I think it’s more than fair
please continue this, it's a very interesting concept for a playthrough, especially for you having to come up with substitutions for even the most basic of items
This challenge looks interesting due to being forced to use different things you’d never consider, but it looks so inconvenient and absolutely demented to play, can’t wait for part 2
Do Terraria, but you can only attack if you're standing inside a suitable housing If you leave housing area, your summons and auto attacks have to be turned off, so you're gonna have to be building a lot.
Wand of sparking back at it again with banger content! Thank you for all you do, your videos always brighten my day, is what I would say if it weren’t 1:40 am right now. Oh well.
really cool concept, just something I noticed was, by your logic, you could craft torches into ice torches, and therefore your lighting problems could have been solved much easier
I have nothing to comment really except: I would love to see part 2. This is quite an interesting challenge. It made my heart wept for you every time you got something and found out you couldn't use it. If heart crystals were banned, I would say ignore that just for the sake of your sanity.
funny how i can watch it now, great first episode, i can finally watch one of your challenges without it being finished, and if i recall pumpkin armor isnt in the list of not allowed, and i know about reaven shark being banned but what about the other fish tools so you know....(did anyone else realise the moon looks like the one from majoras mask)
A mod that deletes half the items at random (they don't drop, can't be crafted) would be so cool. You could even adjust recipes to just not use the item (so like, if gel was banned all torches would need is wood).
i would love to see a version of this where the banned items are completely removed from the world; and maybe only 25% instead of half to balance it out. rolling, say, "no dirt" and having everything be hollow and dirtless would be really interesting looking (and would make the dirtiest dirt way easier to find, probably) you could probably do the bulk of it with tedit but getting some mods to ban certain mobs from spawning/changing their loot pools and automatically delete banned items from your inventory would be nifty
This is a super cool challenge! I have an idea for the golem alter and power cell dilemma if it comes up: since YOU are prohibited from using those items, have someone else in multi-player spawn it but you have to solo the boss with its multi-player hp :) that way you can't get softlocked or have to restart
I'm excited to see what shenanigans you use to get hardmode ores since fishing is limited and the molten pickaxe is uncraftable. I'm excited for a part 2!
I find the glow tulip pretty much every play through, I’m surprised it’s so rare! It’s one of my favourites aesthetically despite not really knowing what game it’s a crossover from
i hzave an ideo for a video : you can try a playthrough were you equip the accesoire paint gun which instantly paints everything and do a challange were everything you place is with echo paint.
The sheer amount of extra items that end up banned is rather fitting, given that thanos absolutely, 100% killed far more than just half the population. After all, if you kill a pilot mid-flight, or a surgeon mid-operation, you're going to kill extra people as well.
Honestly props to Wand man, I would've quit this challenge as soon as I saw the Scalemail drop 😂! Love your videos man, keep it up. The challenges are always so interesting
At first I was disappointed that clearly more than half of the items would be banned due to crafting stations or materials being unavailable. Then I remembered that while the snap only killed half of all life outright, it also caused a lot of secondary deaths. So it's kinda on point.
hardmode will be possible, since ancient hallowed armor exists, assuming demon altars arent banned. There's a high likelyhood you can at least get one of the headpieces since there are 4, and probably at least 1 other piece. Hardmode has a lot of weapon options so I don't think it should be that difficult, especially when you realize how many different types of wings there are. If all else fails, you can always try for a set of dev wings! Edit: Ancient Hallowed is actually a really strong option, you can shimmer it into regular hallowed armor, bypassing the requirement of a hardmode anvil Edit2: I checked the spreadsheet and actually only the ancient hallowed hood and helmet are banned, you can totally just use the ancient hallowed melee set for a dodge and a ton of defense. Also, premech, you can fight queen slime (bag isn't banned) to get the crystal assassin hood (14 defense 5 crit strike) ,and gelatinous pillion
It would undoubtedly take a while, but it would be cool to somehow use a texture pack to show which items can't be used. Like an X on their inventory sprites, or something. I haven't finished the video yet, so don't be too hard if he did that.
Do remember that you can find an anvil underground, so as long as the upgrades and ore required to make one aren't banned, you should be able to craft the hardmode anvil to use (as long as that isn't banned either)
i enjoyed the stardew video, and this seems like an interesting challenge, especially becuase you can just reroll it again for a difference challenge. alternatively, you could do things like 'cannot use anything mined or fished, only looted from chests/pots or enemy drops' or the other way around, only mined/crafting items
From my understanding of the game. You could use the fiberglass rod and the worms from them buckets to fish for hardmode ores and make an anvil right? With the hellforge still allowed, you could get the bars and with enough luck, you could get all the ores. But that is if you can even get all of the bait required which could be tricky. There is a world in which the golden bug net could be obtained, but that requires bait and doing fishing quests which sucks. Another option is to use the extractinator for bait. Old shoes and tin cans will be extractinated into apprentice bait. There are so many options and this little though process may only work If the items weren't banned. I am very curious how the rest of the series is going to go though. Can't wait for part 2!
With very advanced algorithms, it could also check dependencies so exactly half of all items are banned, instead of the obvious issue of most crafted items always being banned. 2/3rds and 3/4ths could probably be settings too.
i undestand if you wouldn't do it because of the challenge being too similar, but maybe once you are done with this run, you could try an "reverse" one, where the forbiden item become allowed and vice versa ? i think it would be interesting to see the other side of the coin.
For future challenges if you are running low on money and you want to reforge, you could decraft the items with shimmer and then craft them again to get a new roll.
Terraria, but each time you beat a boss the inventory gets randomized (weapons only roll the ones obtainable at the stage, tools and expert bags unaffected)
It hurt to see you trash the Ancient Shadow Scalemail as it can be shimmerd into its non ancient version.
That would have been good to know. I guess I'll find another one next time if we can't get any Hardmode armour.
wouldn't that be not allowed since it'd be an over 50% banned recipe
Yeah I was kinda debating whether shimmer should be allowed, but shimmer is cool and allows for interesting strategic plays like this, so I'll probably allow it.
And that is not really a recipe in my eyes
shimmer transmutation counts as crafting according to the wiki

I did find one in the first cabin I found, but decided not to use it. I thought about it though, would be kinda interesting to build a base around it.
the best part of this was how you only got rid of 50% of items yet most sub pools of items were getting hit with 75% of them missing.
It's crazy that you happened to stumble upon the nurse but didn't have the petty change to pay for a heal. That's the game's own way of rolling NO 😂
Does a mod for item exclusion challenges like this exist yet? It’d be fun to have challenges like that implemented through gameplay mechanics.
i enjoyed the stardew video, and this seems like an interesting challenge, especially becuase you can just reroll it again for a difference challenge. alternatively, you could do things like 'cannot use anything mined or fished, only looted from chests/pots or enemy drops' or the other way around, only mined/crafting items
7:09 New MLG just dropped
Definitely would like to see a hardmode runthrough of this
Mana Regen Potions are amazing! I usually don't even bother with regular mana potions and just use mana regen potions instead.
NEW WAND OF SPARKING VIDEO WOOOOOO
From my understanding of the game. You could use the fiberglass rod and the worms from them buckets to fish for hardmode ores and make an anvil right? With the hellforge still allowed, you could get the bars and with enough luck, you could get all the ores. But that is if you can even get all of the bait required which could be tricky. There is a world in which the golden bug net could be obtained, but that requires bait and doing fishing quests which sucks.
Another option is to use the extractinator for bait. Old shoes and tin cans will be extractinated into apprentice bait.
There are so many options and this little though process may only work If the items weren't banned.
I am very curious how the rest of the series is going to go though.
Can't wait for part 2!
The problem is, hardmode anvils are crafted at pre-hardmode anvils, so even if I got any bars, we couldn't use them.
Hmmmm...
Yeah, that is a valid point haha
you can craft ice torches using torches and blocks of ice.
Love it when I wake up and see WOS uploaded :)
I wonder if a mod could do this auto-magically (while ensuring truely needed items are always in the green.)
With very advanced algorithms, it could also check dependencies so exactly half of all items are banned, instead of the obvious issue of most crafted items always being banned. 2/3rds and 3/4ths could probably be settings too.
Nice majoras mask moon you got there! Would have been perfect for that majoras mask run you had a while ago (unless I didn't notice it)
i undestand if you wouldn't do it because of the challenge being too similar, but maybe once you are done with this run, you could try an "reverse" one, where the forbiden item become allowed and vice versa ? i think it would be interesting to see the other side of the coin.
I have thought about that, it would be interesting. I'd have to see if people were interested, but it could be a possibility.
Not being able to use platinum coins, is like being the person with a coin jar,
Except their all gold coins.
SOMETHING is going to be a hindrance.
babe wake up wand of sparking posted
If any of hardmode anvils not banned, you can find some cans of worms and try fish necessary bars to craft it
For future challenges if you are running low on money and you want to reforge, you could decraft the items with shimmer and then craft them again to get a new roll.
Terraria, but each time you beat a boss the inventory gets randomized (weapons only roll the ones obtainable at the stage, tools and expert bags unaffected)
11:31 THE ONE PIECE
Imagine doing a run like this and getting a lucky rod of discord only for it to be Thanos snapped...
