I really wish you could convert bars back into raw ore. All my meteorite ore has been converted into bars because I didn't think I'd have any use for the ore, and now I want to build a mini-meteorite shrine to summon meteorheads at will. Same with wanting to build a golden house and realizing all your gold has been tied up in ingots already. lenocinor posted:I play with a couple other guys and they got all the shadow chests, so I dunno. I did start numbering my farming worlds a while back in pre-1.0 days, though, and personally I've farmed 49 so far, heh. (Yes I know about TerrariViewer, but I only use it when the game screws up and loses one of my items, because the game really loses something for me when I -- or one of my buddies -- don't earn the items.)

Wait what happens if you equip two sets of wings? Can you fly for longer?

Specter boots definitely increase flight time when paired with wings. Honestly, I would have a hard time not using specter boots and wings as two of my accessories for pretty much any character.

Adding spectre boots does increase flying time, by about double.

I am loving this new patch so much, but it made me think: Where can they go from here? I'm thinking it would be best of Redigit started making plans for a Terraria 2. However, I did think of one idea that could expand the usefulness of biomes: Seasons. The idea would be that Terraria would have 4 seasons, and each season last a total of 30 game days. During the season, the biomes will be affected either slightly or dramatically. The normal forest biome would have little effect, but have certain graphical effects like yellow/red/brown trees with falling leaves for Autumn or bits of snow for Winter. However, other biomes could be affected like this: Spring: Daybloom, Musrooms, and other plants have an increased growth rate on all biomes. The jungle biome now has new enemies that will appear only in spring that can net you materials for new items. Summer: Being so hot, fire damage is increased along with the debuff. The desert areas, including normal and hallow, now have new enemies spawn to supply new material. The beach could also have new enemies/materials. Autumn: This would have only a slight graphical effect on other biomes. However, the corruption is completely changed to look extra spooky, including Halloween-esque enemies with new materials. Winter: Like Autumn drastically changing corruption, Winter would drastically change the hallow, turning it into a winter wonderland. Any water in the hallow is turned into ice with slippery walking physics as well as being able to be mined and used as material. New enemies/material would of course be present. These seasons could also be used to input additional bosses that could be summon only during those seasons and the proper location. If you feel that the length of the seasons are too long, another idea would be for a new NPC, The Chronologist (because using Time Lord would probably cause legal trouble). With this NPC, you could pay him or her to turn day into night, slow down time to extend day/night for one or more days, or automatically jump to a specific season. The NPC could also sell items to make weapons and accessories if needed. I know I am rambling, but after this great patch, it makes me wonder what they'll do next.

Considering the game is loot-based, he can just keep adding new zones, etc. with stronger equipment. I'm imagining he'll eventually have it where one creates a portal to various realms/dimensions where really powerful poo poo is.

Seasons, weather and alien worlds are all on the to-do list at some point. In any case, I'm hoping the decreasing gravity as you climb is preparation for a later space biome.

Jumped into hard mode for the first time yesterday, have to say, I'm disappointed at how easy it is to get the new tiers of ore. The progression in the original ores was brilliant, and I loved the challenge of mining out hellstone for the first time, required some entertaining mining antics. Cobalt/Mythril/Adamantium are basically just thrown at you. We had the new drills and full sets of armor in no time flat. Kind of a wasted opportunity  Oh well. I do like the progression from lovely copper pickaxe and a sword to drills and chainguns though. I hope we're walking around in steampunk mining suits in the next big content patch.

I agree, there didn't seem to really be much of any kind of "progression" between the three new ore types. Activate hard mode, smash a dozen altars, and they're all just lying around pretty easy to find.

I felt the same way, I smashed some altars and found cobalt in the same area i was smashing the altars. Had a full cobalt set before really even seeing any of the new enemies other than the corruptor. I used the first mithril I found to get a drill for adamantite. People in this thread made it sound like hard mode was murderous, but really the only enemy that has given me cause for alarm is that wyvern thing. I think the experience is mainly influenced by whether you killed the wall with murasama or night's edge. The latter cuts through the hard mode enemies almost as well as the adamantite sword.

Why, you stroll into a black hole and invade The Singularity, of course!  vvv Given the devteam's apparent fondness for pop culture, if they put in a new biome underneath Hell it would probably be Scarytown.

The final boss can be Ra. Hell you don't need to go any further. Having Ra be a five part boss is already good enough if you play it along with a small bit of text and fight him in the forest, Hell, the Hallow/Corruption, the Moon and finally back on the now Supernoving Sun. Complete with some music from BGC if all else can't create something good enough.

Equipping Sunglasses while standing on the Sun should do something awesome. I don't know, or care, what, but it has to do something. Even if you just see your world floating around in the "sky" and when you put Sunglasses on then your planet is wearing sunglasses too. I never get tired of seeing the Sun all chill with its shades  vvv Okay that's a better idea, fighting the Sun God with sunglasses on is suitably rad to unlock a Nightmare Mode boss vvv Angry Diplomat fucked around with this message at Dec 7, 2011 around 20:50 |

EDIT: Goddamnit now I want to make my own Terraria focused more on having some semblance of a plot even if corny as hell just so I can have a Scarytown, Hell, Moon, and Sun biome including version, but now I don't know how to do it without ripping them off

I was thinking you keep digging down through hell into a layer of obsidian and slade. At the very bottom of the map is another boss- some sort of Great Old One. He's so big, he acts as the floor of the whole map. I also thought about a boss that takes up the roof of the map, high in the sky where gravity is low.

Ever since I tried the wired explosives, I've been completely unable to get this out of my head, but just a little bit too lazy to actually try it out: Couldn't you easily cheese all the bosses by rigging up a bunch of explosives, kite the bosses into it and detonate the fucker? Seems like this would easily obliterate the Destroyer in particular, just cover the ground with explosives, wait for him to dive into it and jump to a safe spot covered in pressure plates. Hell, you could probably do a completely weaponless hardmode fight by just rigging several screens worth of boulder traps, explosives and arrow traps. Certainly seems like it'd be a fun challenge.

I know I'd feel dumb for not using it if the boss kills you with something stupid like 50 hp left. My general thinking is if you're not entirely sure you're able to kill a boss, you might as well give it everything you've got. In other news, the Megashark is hands down the single greatest thing since sliced bread. Or Crystal Storm + autopot for mana users.

I'd love to see him play around with what the ice sceptre (?) does, as it strikes me as a mechanic that would work well for a boss fight. "Battling this ancient horror over a pit of lava? better stay on these platforms that despawn after a few seconds!" "Ohshi-... you stepped on the wrong platform while fighting the sky god? Well gently caress you're on fire now!" Obviously that could be a bit unforgiving for melee players, so it's not necessary just the thing in the lava/sky you are fighting, but I digress.
