The increased drop rate for antlion mandibles is nice. All mining potion all the time.

Every map has a few Enchanted Sword shrines now, you can spot them by looking for a one block wide shaft beginning at or a few blocks below the surface. Some of the shrines will have fakes but there's always an Enchanted Sword on the map. There's also a chance you'll receive a new low level sword I forget the name of.

The Space Gun and Meteor Armor combo make normal a breeze, I usually try to cheese it out with sticky bombs before I even have a gold pick.

An elevated length of mine cart track a few screens wide with bumpers at either end is my new favorite way to deal with the hardmode bosses. I managed to punk the random Skeletron Prime spawn unbuffed with the Shadowflame Knives that way. As far as ammo goes, exploding bullets are easy to make, cheap, and drat effective against pretty much everything up to the mechanical bosses. It's easy to farm up a Clockwork Assault Rifle from The Wall and make a few stacks of bullets with the gold drops that will keep you covered for blasting stuff. If you still have trouble with bosses, do some fishing in the caverns and Crimson / Corruption. Endurance and Rage / Wrath potions are amazing.

The Shield of Cthulhu dash can be fun to play around with as melee before hardmode. Aside from that, if you intend to play with minecart track, grabbing the mechanical cart bits from the mechanical bosses is worthwhile, 102mph is fast. Otherwise yea, make an alternate expert world and just use it to grab what you want.

The Necromantic Scroll is nice if you want to do summon stuff but yea, you can pretty much ignore the moons. As far as potions go, the Endurance and Wrath / Rage potions are really good and can be fished up pretty easily. If you're having trouble with bosses they make a difference, especially if you're already buffed up with ironskin and regen (you should be buffed up with ironskin and regen).

i am tim! posted:You can also reforge your weapons and trinkets for better affixes. Speaking of, what are the kind of affixes that I should be aiming for on my trinkets?? The lifesteal on Vampire Knives is tied to damage, I've taken to reforging all my stuff to menacing (4% damage) and haven't looked back. Short of the Moon Lord you can facetank almost anything, Expert stuff included, if you're running a Flask of Ichor.

No, you can fish up crates in regular then open those crates once the Wall is dead and get hardmode ores though.

symbolic posted:The dynamic water looks dope, but I'm trying to figure out what that thing could be related to. Maybe the renovated desert? The water is going to get a bunch of settings for performance sake that dictate what specifically interacts with it, just players, player projectiles, etc. I'd be all on board with more hardmode desert stuff. The flame animation kind of reminds me of the border of the sigil the dungeon cultists gather around.

Evil Mastermind posted:Soooooo yeah, I was not ready for The Destroyer. That kinda sucked and was not fun. Get a set of Adamantite / Titanium armor with the melee helmet and run the Wall until you get a clockwork assault rifle. That combo + exploding ammo should tear The Destroyer to bits, doubly so if you spam buff potions.

Otherworld got farmed out pretty much immediately and looked stupid so count me as a "whatever" I'm still looking forward to 1.3.6, the few teasers they've shown mostly consist of fairly minor tweaks but they're all good. As far as mods go I've only messed with Thorium. I liked it, especially since some of the later progression removes a lot of fiddly poo poo like having to farm up early game materials in hardmode. The sprite work is pretty good too.

Exploding bullets and the Clockwork AR are a fantastic combo in early Hardmode. The bullets are cheap and easy to make (explosive powder from the Demolitionist & empty bullets from the Arms Dealer) and have enough knockback to deal with pretty much anything, just be mindful that the AOE can hurt you too,

Expert mode is pretty rough and I wouldn't recommend it if you're just coming back. If there's expert stuff you want you can just make a small expert world for killing bosses etc. and take your spoils back to your primary world. Large worlds are a bit much for solo play. The Terraria wiki has a pretty comprehensive list of the pros and cons here.

Ambaire posted:I read through some of the responses and the entitlement of some of those people is revolting. "When is this update coming out? Why haven't you updated it yet? blarglarbl" Terraria has always had an awful "community" but it seems like the devs shrug it off pretty well. I am impressed with how much support the game has received and I'm glad they just continue to have fun with the game. Probably helps that they've sold a bajillion copies. Pyrus Malus posted:Anyway, is expert mode even doable solo?? I'm about to flip the switch to hardmode again, but I remember it feeling borderline impossible. You can solo expert but the bosses generally require a lot more preparation like a full arena and a ton of buff potions. I'm playing expert right now and the difficulty spike of expert hardmode enemies isn't as dramatic as it is for things pre-WoF. The mechanical bosses are a lot harder, especially The Destroyer but Plantera and the Golem aren't as dramatic. The Daedalus Stormbow and holy arrows vs. The Destroyer makes a huge difference and the Megashark with crystal bullets turned out to be the best way to handle The Twins and Prime. bij fucked around with this message at 19:48 on Jul 19, 2018 |

It's been a while since I played with it but my experience was that Thorium makes most of the core content easier. At the very least, expert mode is going to shower you with gold and that'll make all the QoL vendors in the mod extra helpful.

Tin Tim posted:Are there any 3rd party tools that allow you to export a worldmap and check it out for specific things? I'm not sure if I cleaned all the crimson/hallow out of my entrenched area and look for simple ways to help with that. I've sprayed through two stacks of green solution but it's still hard to tell if I got everything. Like there is this red moss stuff that grows on stone sometimes and I find it tricky to tell that apart from crimson I like TerraMap Bonus 1.3.6 stuff:

Drink a builder potion and equip any of the block placing accessories the travelling merchant sells and you can lay down a bunch of track super fast. I'd suggest running it just low enough to see the surface so you can spot strange plants for dyes to use or sell. If you decide to set up teleporters later you can just sit in the cart to lay the wire.

The Thorium mod's got several higher iterations of boots above Frostspark which you can make pretty easily before hardmode with the QoL Cobbler NPC. I've been soloing a large expert map with Thorium on and off which I've been enjoying but can't recommend to anyone that isn't a masochist. I was kind of bummed that we didn't get 1.3.6 in 2018 but I can't say I mind that they're taking their time to add fun stuff like the Minecarp. drat I want a Minecarp.

I'd suggest using your titanium on Frost Armor. Farming the frost cores in the snow biome during a blizzard will also probably net you an ice feather which will set you on wings for the majority of hardmode. If you don't have one yet, kill the Wall of Flesh until it drops a clockwork assault rifle and reforge it until you get rapid. The clockwork rifle with crystal or explosive bullets will make scoring a Daedalus Stormbow and Shadowflame Knives much easier. A combination of frostburn from Frost Armor, shadowflame from the knives, and cursed flames from a flask is pretty brutal vs. everything. (edit: except The Destroyer, it's immune to debuffs / DoTs) Ichor flasks work too. bij fucked around with this message at 19:12 on Jan 16, 2019 |

The lore is unnecessary but it's bland and inoffensive enough to not matter. I can appreciate the Mechanic being responsible for the mech bosses I guess.

I grabbed Terraria when it hit Steam officially and I've sunk an obscene amount of time into the game since then. I default to Expert mode these days because I appreciate the drop rates and I think it's more fun but holy poo poo, Master looks brutal. 1.4 looks like a they've put some thought into it and whether it is the last release or not, Terraria has cemented itself as one of the best games ever for me.

If you aren't trying to rush I don't think you need to change much up for Expert. Get some bombs or fish up a Reaver Shark ASAP then smash a Shadow Orb / Crimson Heart before midnight. If a meteor doesn't drop, do it again the next night. Meteor Armor and a space gun will let you thrash the EoW or Brain pretty easily. If you pick up a trident and some Moonglow seeds on your way to the Ocean you're set.

The spear and trident are just extra useful in Expert because of the high knockback, they aren't necessary but if you snag one early it can be helpful. I don't know about the buff button specifically but for the first couple bosses I run Iron Skin, Swiftness, and Regeneration. I don't think you need Endurance potions running early on but you'll want them from Skeletron to the end of the game Turn any clay you snag into pots and use them to get an early Daybloom and Blinkroot farm going, get Moonglow going next for Spelunker potions, and find or create a glowing mushroom biome so you have plenty of shrooms for Shine.

You should be good, you can kill the EoW with a Harpoon pretty easily without much preparation. I like to get Meteor Armor because I usually play on a server with folks that don't have as much time to be a huge nerd as I do so I have a ton of time to kill before Hardmode. Meteor Armor is just handy for everything prior to WoF.

Frost Armor -> kitbash of Turtle Scale Mail + Chlorophyte Mask + Hallowed Greaves is the true Hardmode armor progression.
