Terraria - Dig, fight, explore, build

I do! :(

Kill Eye, get purification powder, smash orbs! The musket is indeed always the first item from a Shadow Orb. Logged in to SP, then had to go afk for half an hour. Came back to find all my NPC's dead, a Red hat on the floor, and lots of goblins attacking me! Killed them all and got two spare pairs of rocket boots, if anybody needs them just ask when I am online (game name is Aradroth).

Any particular thinking behind the design?

I read in a guide, and watched a video that said the rooms need to be 10 spaces wide, and 7 spaces high with a door, torch, table and chair per NPC to move in, and there are meant to be 6 NPCs that move in altogether, so I thought I would make 3x2 NPC rooms, plus a layer underneath for my chests and crafting stuffs. Also the house needs to be built from house materials (wood or stone) or NPCs wont move in, and I liked the look of wood platforms with stone walls.



The work bench / anvil and NPC tables were placed as stepping stones with platforms above them so I could jump up and down from the room.

I originally built the walls around the edge to make it really difficult for Zombies to get in with spots where I could jump in from with as much distance as possible, but now that I have the grappling hook I can make the house completely zombie proof (I read that Zombies can open doors later on in the game or something).

Shaddap :p

I had about 20-25 gold coins before I smashed a Shadow Orb (bloody expensive Dynamite), got the Musket (seems to be guaranteed first drop) and the Vilethorn. Don't wanna break the 3rd till I get Jungle armour for fighting the Eater of Worlds. Least now the Dryad is here so I can buy Purification Powder and save on Dynamite.

Just seemed everytime I went near the Corruption I'd get slaughtered by the Eaters. Now I've built a stone tunnel with lots of doors across the entire length of it and can simply run over the top of it now because it blocks most of the Eaters (if they even spawn anymore...).

You can do the eater with really rubbish armour. Unlike the other bosses, it doesn't despawn when you die. Quite painful when it spawns and you don't know this. I spent about fifteen minutes being killed over and over again the first time it spawned :)

I was hoping to avoid dying to kill it. It makes me feel more like a man :D

I could probably take it now given that Vilethorn is supposed to be really good for killing it, but since I'm 1 Emerald away from a full set of Jungle armour which will make Vilethorn even more spammable I figured I may as well just wait. Then stock up on Purification Powders and go hunting for Shadow Orbs, kill the boss and start hunting for others to try and trigger a Meteorite.

Btw Bhavv, you're missing a table w/ bottle on it for an alchemy station.

Probably makes it pretty Goblin proof too. I should probably do the same.

Was digging for some Gold/Silver to make some armor on my SP map and a monster dropped a Whoopie Cushion \o/

Those are really rare - I've had one in around 60 hours playing and accidentally threw it into lava, whilst trying to attack with my inventory open. (Lost 2 Ivy Whips because of this also.)

Pretty sure they drop from worms.

Edit - that time lapse video gives me a weird ant farm vibe. :D
 
Argh, epic fail.

I finally got hold of the last Emerald I needed (thanks powelly)... and I've just noticed I don't actually have any Sapphires at all so I need to find 10 of those ><
 
I got owned by a Lava Slime :(

I was trying to build a ladder to hell, killed a Lava Slime above me... it released a block of lava and burned its way down the wooden platforms, killing me in the process and ruining my ladder :(

It may be a bug, but the Eater of Worlds now despawns if I die on my Single Player World. I remember in 1.0.4 it would not despawn until killed. You can kill the EoW with iron armor, and a silver broadsword without dying if you can dodge him well enough. Just make a suitable arena in which to fight it. :)

E: I'm online on the OcUK server now with two pairs of rocket boots free to a good home. Ask if you need them.

Save me one please for when i get home! (about 7pm) My char name is creo :)
 
I'm starting to think travelling to Hell was a little pointless. First thing that happened was I bounced off the Hellstone and landed in some lava :p
