      while ice is corruptible, snow is not, so, since ice is fairly rare on the surface, corruption can't really spread from ice vein to ice vein, so snow biomes are pretty much safe from corruption. jungles used to be too but you know what happened to them

    Small but EXTREMELY helpful lifehack that I feel like should be known (if it already isnt known enough) is to ALWAYS pick up the chests you loot. It's good to grab more chests as it saves so much iron/lead and especially is helpful early game when you fill your inventory with tons of items.
    It may seem like an obvious thing to do but I have over 1.5k hours in the game and I still forget to do that most of the time.

    Hey chippy, I just want to say that I met two of my best friends because of you. Two years ago I wore my small chippy shirt and one of them recognized it and gave me his steam and the other guy noticed and we all started talking. Since then they’ve been the two best friends I’ve ever had. They’re headed off to college next year but we’re playing terraria feather worthy before they head out. TLDR: thank you chippy for indirectly creating the best thing that’s ever happened to me :)

    A trick I learnt using the armour swapping from 1.4.4 is that you can equip hallowed armour in one of them to give you a way to dodge attacks every 30 seconds, as the cooldown for the buff to reactivate does tick down even while you don't have the armour equipped. I found this really useful for dodging moon lord's death ray, as he doesn't use it very often and its usually easy to tell in advance if you're about to get hit by it

    A trick that blew my mind is one related to the duplicating water trick.
    If you put a floating block below the liquid that's falling down, that liquid will also duplicate.
    So you basically can actually build a pyramid of floating blocks and as long as they don't touch each other and they're bellow the sides where the liquid is falling... You can make it generate a tob more liquid (kinda like those champagne glass towers where you pour the champagne and the liquid also falls to the glasses bellow).

    Halloween is the best moment to start a new playthrough. Not only do enemies drop goodie bags, but also pumpkins spawn in the overworld, which can make for a really potent armor starting out. Plus the goodie bags have a chance to drop a good starting weapon. Which makes all the difference in master mode.
    Alternatively, speedrunning for a bucket of lava in a corruption world can allow you to farm for ancient shadow armor. Which skips all regular ore armors starting out.

    You can make a one-way passage with platforms. Placing 3 platforms against a wall, then hammering them to be stairs facing the wall will completely remove collision for that wall face, allowing players, entities and projectiles to pass through, but not BACK as the other side is still solid. This is useful for kill chambers, as the player can use weapons like spears or ranged weapons to kill enemies from complete safety

    a couple simple ones that i learned from the wiki but are pretty helpful are that meteors won't fall if there are already 401/610/801 blocks of meteorite in the world (small, medium, and large world size respectively) or anywhere within 35 blocks of a chest or player, and that on the map, plantera bulbs take up a 4x3 space of pixels, with a green base and 4 pixels of pink at the top, which makes it a lot easier to find them
    another few i learned in my experience is that you can double click on the map to set a marker so that you don't forget where you're going, especially in very windy caves, and also that the celestial pillar enemies drop banners, so putting some of those down could help make beating the pillars a little easier

    Quick mining for falling blocks (ie. sand, silt, slush) use block replace to place a solid block 4 blocks up from your feet replacing a sand block with a pile of sand blocks above it, leaving 3 blocks below it for a tunnel, mine those 3 out, place a minecart track down, mine out the solid block you used to replace the sand, it will fall into the track and break allowing you to mine out huge amounts of sand extremely fast.

    A tip for the very start of the game, hit trees as you go for fruit to get the minor improvement buffs to increase early game movement speed before hermes boots.
    Also, acquiring an early Ancient Chisel found in underground desert chests is a worthwhile investment, the 25% mining speed increase is essentially a permanent mining potion, this can also later be turned into the hand of creation which is a very good QOL accessory to use outside of fights.
    Additionally, featherfall potions are very underrated even when spelunking or traversing the jungle but especially during boss fights, waterwalking potions work on lava - useful for the wall of flesh fight, and lifeforce potions should be used before other potions since the added max life has to regen.
    By hammering platforms once onto a wall you can make 'one-way' walls which you and projectiles can pass through but can't come back through - useful for event type scenarios or mobs that can't move through blocks.
    You can buy opposite evil seeds from the dryad in a graveyard biome to get corruption or crimson exclusive items (such as wrath potions or rage potions respectfully).
    A tip for fighting biome mimics: If you get the biome mimic off screen it will fly after you, stopping its pattern of attacks and making it much easier to hit, also easy to do by fighting it on a row of platforms which you and the mimic drop off and land back on.

    Some great tips for early game:
    You can get Demonite/Crimtane Ore with bombs, or a pickaxe greater than 55% power. (like the Gold/Platinum Pickaxe)
    You can sit on a toilet, stay in water with a Inner Tube and/or have the Tipsy debuff for some easy fishing power.
    The Sonar and Fishing Potions are craftable with Waterleaf. Coral (for Sonar Potion) and Waterleaf, Crispy Honey Block (which can also be crafted with regular Honey Blocks at a Furnace) (for Fishing Potion)
    Also to expand some of your tips:
    4:02 You can do the same thing for honey to get Honeyfins and Bumblebee Tunas (quest fish) much easier
    8:40 Town Pets (including Town Slimes), the Old Man and the Travelling Merchant can also be used to get the Painter and the Party Girl much easier.

    example:

    Might be obvious to veterans but I’m pre-WoF on my fourth playthrough and it just occurred to me that you can use the piggy bank (and I’m assuming every other inventory item) as a storage you build from, exactly like a chest. Put a few crafting stations in your piggy bank along with some material that you don’t want clogging your inventory (wood, stone, gel) and you can craft a ton of stuff on the go using what’s in the piggy bank (or safe, void bag etc..)!

    The magic conch is super nice in legendary mode. Make SURE you get it pre hard mode though because hardmode desert is death. Also get something that can trigger cacti from a distance

    The Wand of Sparking may not hit very hard, but in early game it's anything BUT useless! While spelunking, you can fire it at the wall and the falling sparks will illuminate a small area around it. Very helpful for finding nearby caves and ore deposits instead of mining around aimlessly (which is slow going at first).

    I'm sure most people know this but there's always those few who don't! So you can actually walk and shoot through one-block thick walls. Take some platforms and put them on the wall vertically. Hammer them each once, and you can now shoot through the wall. If you hold DOWN as you walk into the wall you will walk through it.

    A bonus about King Slime, fighting him in underground hallow or corruption/crimson in hardmode can help you if you are struggling to get souls of night or light, as his slime spawns drop a TON of them, about 50 per king slime killed on average, perfect to craft plenty of night or light keys easily if you want to farm these mimics for powerful items
    Edit: damn they nerfed it after 1.3 this sucks

    • @WizardCraft-ox4pe
      @WizardCraft-ox4pe 11 місяців тому +1

      It may not work for the SoL/SoN, but it still works for farming out the Amarok in Hardmode, which is a fantastic melee weapon and Yoyo (with the right accessories) since it inflicts a good amount of damage AND inflicts the Frostbite debuff, which almost no enemy outside of the universal immune ones are immune to.
      Combine it with Hellfire and maybe a flask and you can have 2-3 separate damage over-times dealing damage to the mechs AND Plantera depending on which exact Flask is used, maybe Ichor for that extra defense debuff.
      It's seriously a fantastic weapon that doesn't really require much effort to get, so this tip is still very valid, just for a different purpose.

    7:57 i use the loadouts early game to store random accesories or armour or whatever I find when my inventory is full. Its really handy when you have found somethings but your inventory is full. Just put the random accesories in that you dont need at the moment. Dont forget to take them out tho. It is maybe 3-4 extra slots (early game because you can just wear and use whatevet you find but its still better then having to go back or trowing something out)

  • @dirtprime1379
    @dirtprime1379 Рік тому +2

    These are two tips that I found really helpful from another guide when beating Duke Fishron. The first one tells you to make an arena with around 80 blocks of distance between each level of platforms because this way the tornados won't reach you if you stay in a higher level. The second tip is applied to the third phase and it tells you to use a dash accessory and fly up in the sky to slowly drop down while dashing left and right the charges of the boss. These tips made my fights against Duke Fishron so easy that it's pretty unbelievable.
    Note: I don't remember the exact distance needed for the first tip to work but I think it was around 80 tiles and the second one works for sure since I use it all the time.

    • @mattemathias3242
      @mattemathias3242 Рік тому

      80 blocks is too much imo, usually what I do is just time the tornadoes to land outside the arena on the floor or at the top

  • @SkeleXon
    @SkeleXon Рік тому +6

    7:25 I thought of the same thing when the loadout feature was added. What I usually do is have the first loadout be my main class set for the world, then the second loadout would be my miner/builder set, and finally the third loadout would be my fishing set. It's such a game changer 🙏

  • @squashmvg
    @squashmvg 8 місяців тому

    Sweet video. Thanks. Didnt know the class loadout system was new. I used my second loadout for distancing and regen. So I really can't imagine the game without it. I have a couple tips to share, hope they help.
    When fishing, switching to a different weapon as opposed to reeling it in saves you bait. Paired with the thing that tells you whats on your hook, you can save a sliver of time when fishing in lava while you have limited resources. Bunny Cannons paired with Teal Pressure Pads make for a pretty reliable, janky delay for a switch. Eat food and use toilets often. Your character can carry stuff between worlds, this is especially useful if you just want to farm but are worried about corruption spreading on your home world. Finally, a good way to remember what shimmer can turn stuff into is to remember what is used along them to craft a certain item (Example: You can transmute any of the fisherman reward accessories to become the other fisherman reward accessory being that they're all used to craft one fishing accessory)

    The particles from rocket boots emit a small amount of light before dissipating, but if you use rocket boots and then switch to a mount like the slime mount, it will often emit a few 'longer life' particles that travel through blocks and momentarily illuminate caves, which you can see on the minimap

    This isn't necessarily a tip, but regarding the Sky Island tip, even if there are no small puddles I've always found a sky island between the beginner forest and the biome to the right (usually the desert) it has roughly a 90% success rate (on Large worlds)

    Hey Chippy a trick that blew my mine is how you can kill the dungeon guardian by making a hoik thats like 50X50 blocks make it go like a loop and it doesn't matter what class you are you are like equally likely to kill or get killed by the dungeon guardian for weapons of each class i recommend you use any type of weapon of each class as long as it can shoot projectiles or hit it like a whip

    I have a very good tip for fighting the twins, so after you have killed spaz and retinazer is in its second phase you can just bulid cower on your top and to your right an it wont be able to damage you and you can easly defeat it with whips

  • @magicalcapi9148
    @magicalcapi9148 Рік тому +1

    One tip that saved me a toooooonnn of time and I wished I knew sooner. So actually, Terraria devs must have known the struggle to make fishponds. Instead of using the dupe glitch, you can use wet bombs, which are WAY quicker to fill an area with water.
    You can get wet bombs by crafting it with dry bombs in the inventory in water. After that, if you have in the inventory, you can buy more from the miner. Same for lava and honey and even the dry bombs themselves.
    "How to get dry bombs?", it's a drop from obsidian crates. So you can't do it riiiiight away when you start a new world, but it still doesn't take too long. The water glitch still helps in a pinch, but trust me, as soon you can fish in lava, do it.

    As a old habbit, I never move arms dealer and nurse to snow biome, as pre 1.4.4 he wouldn't sell you the Pilon three.
    As for a "tip", more a personal preference, I always transform the world spawn in a Surface mushroom biome, mostly because I leave the Guide with all my crafting stations there, so I get the truffle to move there.

    In the 3rd phase of Duke Fishron, and easy way to avoid being hit is to fly upward and toward him just before he dashes, and you will go right over him, then use one of the slime mounts to quickly drop back to the ocean's surface when you run out of wing time.

    If you want to create an arena without using too many platform as an elevator, you can use the snake charmer's flaute for easier building. In hardmode you can switch it for the ice staff sold by the wizard.
    Also, you can use the rule tool to measure the length between each platform.

    When you start a ranger build early game... i always go to a snow biome to get ice forfrostburn arrows, they're more powerful than flame arrows.
    Also if you go on jungle early, i saw they added big trees that leafs to big honey biome. That's easy honey and easy heal.
    One great place to fish early on is the oasis. To get lots of food and pearls for luck potions

    During or before a goblin army you can dig a 1 block hole right before your houses doors and put lava in that 1 block area and then the goblins that can break down doors won't be able to break them down and they will also die leaving just the goblin sorcerers to deal with when hiding in your house. I use this a lot and it makes the fight quite a bit easier.
