Terraria - Dig, fight, explore, build

Keep running left or right (on the surface, not below ground) until you find weird grey looking grass and unique flying enemies (eater of souls or something) and make your way down one of the many holes in the floor. They are usually very deep though so have a grapling hook before you try it tbh. Also you need to have dynamite with you (50s each from the demonlisionist) to destroy the ebonstone blocks in the way of you and the shadoworbs, but watch out as their blast radius is massive. When you destroy a shadow orb you usually get demonite ore and a blue grade item.

Main aim is to get the best gear you can (iron or gold armour + weapons) and then go to smash a few shadow orbs. If you summon the eater of worlds boss (giant multisegmented worm) and die in one of the pits, don't worry as you can continously fight it even in your house, unlike the eye of cthulu which despawns.

If you manage to kill the worm, you get demonite ore and a piece of the shadow armour + shadow scales. With the ore you can make demonite bars and with the scales + bars you can make weapons and armour, most notably the nightmare pickaxe, which allows you to mine the ebonstone which you currently need to use dynamite on.

Also when you destroy shadoworbs, you can have a meteor land somewhere near it which creates a hole nearby filled with ore that kinda looks like its on fire. Get as much of that as you can and you can start making some truly great items.

Thats a lot of hours though worth of gameplay there :P Enjoy!

Thanks, I've got full Molten armour and the masamune blade thing and a molten pickaxe so I don't need dynamite thankfully.
 
I found what looks like a big heart under water but I can't collect it, any ideas or is it just scenery?
 
Potential SPOILER to newbs like me!






I went to the far right of the world (medium) and found a red/pink brick castle 'thing' and decided to go down in to it depths... skull attack! WTF is that all about!? Lost a shed load of coins that I now can't retrieve. :x

That's the dungeon, there's one on every world and it's full of high level enemies and loot.
 
is the dungeon on the ocuk sever on the right? I spent about 10 mins going to the left but I reached the sea and no sign of dungeon :(
 
I vote yes. Also if people find stuff in chests that they already have and the same with hearts, leave it there. Makes it more fun for everyone. :)
 
I'm finding it hard to find iron and gold ore, even after 11 hours of furious digging!

I need better weapons, my iron shortsword takes ages to kill baddies. I don't even have a grapple hook yet.

Took me HOURS to get a hook to drop from the skeletons for the grapling hook lol. Seriously, at least 5 hours or so of grinding.... :|
