Terraria

Cheat Codes:
------------
Submitted by: David K.

Easy Money Music Box Glitch:
----------------------------
This only works in single player. All you need is a music box and 2 wooden platforms.
Place the 2 platforms 2 squares from the roof of your house. Try placing the music 
box on the platform. The music box will explode into hundreds of boxes. Then just 
sell the extra. easy money and free music boxes.


Sky Islands:
------------
* All randomly generated worlds feature at least one island floating in the sky, but
  they're difficult to access normally and you still need to find where exactly the 
  islands are!

* One way to find the islands is to construct pillars that reach far into the sky 
  (100 to 200 blocks in height), then use vines and grapples to scale the pillar (or
  simply make really tall ladders) and jump in various directions from the very top.
  With luck you should catch the telltale signs of the floating islands in the form 
  of the vines that often extend below them.

* Or load up a gun with Meteor Shots and begin shooting at the sky at random 
  locations; if the shot rebounds back toward you, you've likely hit a floating 
  island. Crafting Grav Potions are also another way to help you navigate maps 
  in special ways.

* If you don't mind gaming the system, you can also create a new and separate game
  in Hardcore mode, purposely kill yourself to become a ghost, then fly around the 
  entire map to eventually discover the islands. Then reload your usual save file 
  and make your way to the islands with the knowledge you've just earned.



Infinite Items and Money:
-------------------------
Open 2 copies of Terraria. Log into a world with the character that has the items
you want to duplicate. If they are in a chest, get them from the chest and save 
and exit, then log back into the same world. Login as the SAME character on a 
different world. On the first character, put whatever you want into a chest, then
save and exit. On the second character, save and exit from that world, then log 
into the other world that has the item in the chest and grab the item. Now you 
should have the item in your inventory, and a copy would be in the chest. you 
can grab that copy and now you have 2. This is useful if you want multiple grappling
hooks for friends or even gold/armor. You can repeat but remember to save and exit,
THEN try it again as it wot work in one long run.


Infinite Life Crystals and Chest Items:
---------------------------------------
Here's a way that you can cheat the system and get as many life crystals and as
much stuff out of a chest that you want by using the multiplayer feature.

1.Go to Terraria.org and download their dedicated server program. (Just scroll 
  all the way down at home page.)
2.Use it to start one of your worlds or make a new one. (To join your own server,
  just type "localhost" into the IP address [without quotes]).
3.Search for a life crystal or chest that has something you want to keep getting
  and save the game through the server command window BEFORE you pick up the item.
4.Pick up the life crystal/chest item and close the server window. You should lose
  connection In-Game.
5.Re-open your server and join it. You should still have the life crystal/chest 
  item in your inventory.

If you rush back to the spot where you found the stuff, it should still be there.
All you need to do is take the item and close the server without saving, and you 
can just pick up whatever you want over and over again.


Item Duplication:
-----------------
Remember to SAVE your progress and make a backup of your save. Alter game files 
at your own risk. Deposit the item you want in a chest. Save the game and exit.
Go back in the game and withdraw the item you want to clone and put it in your 
inventory. Wait 5 min (Very Important). Close the game via Alt-F4. Go back into
and there is your cloned item. You should now have the same item in the chest 
and in your inventory.


Red's Alternate Armor:
----------------------
Equip the gold helmet, a frost chest plate, and frost leggings, with black and blue
flame dye on all armor pieces. You will receive special vanity effects, which is a 
reference to Red's armor as depicted in the 1.2 Random Happenings trailer.


Floating Islands:
-----------------
Each randomly generated world comes with at least one floating island. These contain
a chest with unique loot and are interlaced with gold and silver ore. Finding a 
floating island can be tough as the altitude depends on the size of the world you
created, but building a "sky bridge" can help. On small worlds, building the bridge
at about 200 blocks above sea level will put you within sight of an island. Keep an
eye out for vines floating in the middle of the sky, because that's the bottom of 
your island.


Harvesting Fallen Stars:
------------------------
Every night time stars fall from the sky. Collecting ten of these lets you increase
your maximum mana. On normal terrain this can take a long time and can be a risky 
proposition in pitch-darkness. By creating a Sky Bridge (by making a ladder about a
hundred or so blocks in the air and then laying down stone or dirt in a straight 
line) you can create a long stretch of easily-traversable land for the stars to 
land on. With a speed-increasing item such as Hermes Boots or Necro Armor equipped
you can travel the length of your bridge collecting stars relatively uninhibited. 
Zombies will still spawn on the bridge and you might get the occasional harpy or 
demon eye, but you won't have to contend with rough terrain, chasms, water or 
anything that spawns from the corruption.


Hard Mode:
----------
You can enable Hard Mode by killing the Wall of Flesh. To summon him, throw a guide
voodoo doll into some lava. Once you slay the Wall of Flesh, Hard Mode is permanently
enabled and cannot be disabled on the file unless you modify it with a third-party 
program. In Hard Mode, a new biome (The Hallow) is created, and you will encounter 
additional new bosses, items, and monsters.


How to Summon the Queen Bee:
----------------------------
* Queen Bees most commonly can be summoned inside a Bee Hive. These dangerous hives 
  are located in Underground Jungles. Each world can contain several of these hives,
  so it’s possible to fight the Queen Bee multiple times by invaded the hive.
* To make the Queen Bee appear, you’ll need to destroy Larvae. The Larvae appear as
  large (about player-sized) bees stuck inside semi-transparent crystallized shells.
  Destroy them to summon a Queen.
* Some hives can contain two Larvae. Don’t break both at once, or you’ll have to deal
  with two Queen Bees at the same time.


Infinite Money with Lizarhd Doors:
----------------------------------
After you have a Picksaw drop from the Golem go to a world where the temple has not 
been unlocked with a key and Plantera has already been defeated. Make your way to the
temple and mine the blocks under the door and it will break the door but the locked 
door will remain and 3 to 12 doors will drop at a time. Just replace the block and 
re-mine, wash-rinse-repeat. This has been tested on 1.2.1.2 on both P.C. and Console.


How to Get the Nights Edge:
---------------------------
Written by Asome Man73.

-=Lights Bane or Blood Butcher=-
Lights Bane: This Weapon can be achieved by geting demonite ore. How to get demonite
ore is by slaying the Eye of cthulu or by Slaying the Eater of worlds. Then you have
the right ingediants. Next forge your ore into bars. Then get a anvil and craft the 
lights bane. Blood Butcher: how to get the blood butcher is a lot similar like the 
lights bane but the lights bane, but it do's more damage. How to crimtane is facing
the Eve of cthulu or the brain of cthulu. Then make it into bars and done!

-=Murmasa=-
The murmasa is a little harder to find requires a LOT of keys to find a murmasa. First
go to the dungeon at night. Then talk to the old man. One of the options are Curse. 
Press curse. You will summon the skeletron. Beat skeletron. Then you have permission
to go to the dungeon. Without faceing the dungeon gaurdian. Then you can gather 
golden keys. Unlock golden chest to find a murmasa.

-=Blade of Grass=-
How to get the blade of Grass is a lot of farming to do. To start off is to travel 
to the jungle. When you arrive, you want to go to the under ground. You at least 
want to get 15 hornets stingers and a LOT of jungle spors to craft the Blade of Grass.

-=Fiery Greatsword=-
The Fiery Greatsword is a lot stronger than the other swords. How to get this sword 
is to go down in the under world and get some hell stone witch is your main ingredant
for this sword. While your still in the under world, grab a hell forge because the 
hell forge is how you craft hellstone bars. Then go to a anvil and craft the Fiery 
Greatsword.

-=Nights Edge=-
Great, now you have collected all four swords to craft the nights edge. Now you 
want to go to the evil part of your world to craft this blade. Find a demon / 
crimson altar. Craft the nights edge and done.



How to Defeat Expert Calamitas:
-------------------------------
Written by Taystuho1000

This guide explains how to defeat expert calamitas in detail.

-=Before Starting=-
First of all, ranged is perfect because you can outrun and shoot him from far-away.

-=You need=-
* Unreal Chlorophyte Shotbow.
* Unreal Speed Blaster.
* Unreal Barinautical.
* (Optional) Legendary Terra Blade.

-=Potions=-
(Many!) Recall Potions.
Greater Healing Potions.
Archery Potions.
Thorns Potions.
Ironskin Potions.
Rage and Wrath Potions.
Regeneration Potions.
Swiftness Potions.
Night Owl Potions.
Inferno Potions.

-=Armor=-
* Chlorophyte Helmet Armor.

-=Accessories=-
* Warding Ice/Flame Wings.
* Warding Flesh Knuckles.
* Warding Charm Of Myths.
* Warding Lightning Boots.
* Warding Worm Scarf.

Note: You can use Demon Heart to get one bonus slot.

-=The Fight=-
Start shooting Calamitas and fly to right side of map, when you´re in sticky situtation, 
use recall potion and wait for Calamitas when you see lasers start shooting at right and 
fly to left. Repeat this until, Calamitas summons Cataclysm, but focus still on Calamitas. 
Do the same with Catastrophe. When he says "Most Impressive Child, Most Impressive", 
Start using Recall Potions more commonly. When Cataclysm and Catastrophe awokens, start 
focusing on Catatrophe, then focus on Calamitas again. Do this until Calamitas dies.

Note: You should kill Plantera before Calamitas, because Plantera is way much easier!



How to Upgrade Copper Pickaxe (Fast Method):
--------------------------------------------
Written by The Pioneering Pixel

Are you tired of using a copper pickaxe for 20 minutes straight, nonstop mining ores 
until you finally get that one upgrade... To lead or iron? Well guess what pal, you've 
been doing it wrong this whole time!

So, In order to upgrade your copper pickaxe to platinum really freaking quick, you'll need 
to head underground. Now, the reason why it takes so long to get a pickaxe upgrade is 
because you stop at every single ore vein possible. Only stop at lead, and get 15 of it and 
then make an anvil or get a merchant to move in and buy the anvil or(the least reliable method) 
try and find an abandoned house that has an anvil in it.

Next up you'll need to find chests. Do not mine ores! Do not be enticed to mine them, That's 
why it takes so long to upgrade, you mine them with the slow freaking copper pickaxe that 
takes so long to mine. Only find chests (and life crystals while you're at it). 

The chests will always have bars in them by default, surface chests have either tin/copper 
or lead/iron, and gold chests have silver/tungsten or gold/platinum. 

Highly recommended you try and find gold chests. You'll need 12 of any bar if you want 
yourself a new pickaxe. If you have somewhere around 8-11 bars and can't find anymore chests 
with bars, go ahead and start mining the ores for the rest of the bars. 

Don't bother with copper and tin unless you're making armor/bows.

After finding 12 bars, get yourself your new pickaxe!



How to Duplicate Any Item (Journey's End / Update 1.4):
-------------------------------------------------------
Written by obama gaming

This guide will tell you how to duplicate any item of your choosing in Terraria 1.4+. 
I recommend not doing this excessively as it can ruin the Terraria experience.

AutoSave

Make sure to turn Off the AutoSave feature in settings.

* Get items you want to duplicate and leave them in your inventory.
* Save and Exit out of your world.
* Click Multiplayer.
* Click Host & Play.
* Start up a local server.
* Once in the world put the items you want duplicated in a chest and close out 
  of the chest menu.

* Load up your world in Singleplayer.
* Your items have been duplicated.



How to Find a Rainbow Slime and Beating The Wall Of Flesh:
----------------------------------------------------------
Written by Radium

-=First Step: Beat The Wall Of Flesh=-
Tip: I recommend using Molten Armor, Hermes Boots, Cloud / Blizzard / Sandstorm / 
Tsunami in a Bottle or Wings, Buffs (Iron Skin, Regeneration, Swiftness) and the 
most important item in this fight is the beenade. 
Beenades are obtainable by defeating Queen Bee.

* I recommend having at least 100+ beenades.
* After you killed Queen Bee a few times, and you have over 100 beenades, go to 
  the Underworld and search for a Voodoo Demon.
* After you found a Voodoo Demon, kill it, take the Guide Voodoo Doll that he drops.
* Use stone / ash blocks to build a long platform in the Underworld.
* Drop the Guide Voodoo Doll into the lava and run while spamming beenades.
* After The Wall Of Flesh is defeated, the Hollow and Crimson / Corruption biomes 
  should start to spread.

-=Second Step=-
Search for the Hollow biome and wait for a rain to start.
It is recommended to get a Lifeform Analyzer from the Traveling Merchant for 5 Gold Coins.
Now just wait until it spawns.

-=Bonus=-
Rainbow Slime Drops: 1 - 20 gel, 30 - 60 Rainbow Bricks and the rarest item it can 
drop is the Blessed Apple that has a 0.5% chance being dropped.

Blessed Apple is an item that is used to spawn a Unicorn that you can ride.

How to Dash on Mount:
---------------------
Written by Terraman

An easy way to instant accelerate on mounts (If you have the proper gear).

-=Prep=-
Before doing this get some kind of dash item (Either shield of cthulhu (Not possible 
in classic mode), crystal assassin armor, tabi, master ninja gear, or solar flare armor
 (In order of progression)).

-=Config=-
Set quick mount to a button you can easily press while using WASD (I prefer to set 
it to an extra mouse button, but you might not have one).

-=In Practice=-
To instant accelerate press quick mount, double tap the direction you want to go 
in, & press quick mount again as fast as you can.

-=How to Use with Jousting Lance=-
Do the steps mentioned on "In practice" & point the Jousting Lance at about the 
level of your feat for walking enemy's or point it at them for flying enemy's.

Note: I started doing this when i got a shield of cthulhu & it's helped a lot in 
short distance transport, tho a mechanical cart & sky bridge is best for long 
distance transport.




How to Mine Gold & Location Guide:
----------------------------------
Written by noottey7

Gold ore is an early game ore which can spawn naturally as well as in treasures, and can 
be used in crafting. Its primary use is to make gold bars. Now lets move on to how we 
can actually mine it. Note that you will need to have a pickaxe with you before you can 
attempt to mine gold.
 
 
Step 1. Getting ready
Now this might be a little difficult for some new players, as they may be busy getting 
bullied by slimes near the spawn point. If you are having trouble with this, make sure 
to check out a guide on how to kill slimes. I’m sure there are relevant guides in our 
community.
 
 
Now that you’re ready to go mine some gold, you should know that gold may be replaced 
with platinum in some worlds. In this case, you may have to obtain it by some other means. 
If you’re still adamant about wanting to mine it, hop over to another world that has 
naturally generated gold ore.
 
Step 2. Locate gold ore
In my view, this is the most important part of mining gold, as you cannot mine it without 
finding it first, even if you knew how to mine it. For this step, I would recommend that 
you get some help if you want to get that gold ore fast. You can either co-operate with 
a friend to find it faster, or use a spelunker potion (which i prefer).
 
Step 3. Mining gold ore
Good job on getting all the way to the gold ore. Now its time for the final step. Hack 
at the gold ore with your pickaxe until it drops as an item which you can now pick up.
 
Congratulations!! ?? You’ve mined your gold ore, as i mind my own business. Hehe… 
Now go ahead and mine the rest of the gold ore vein.

Step 18. Use the 50 stone blocks to craft the “3” statue.
Step 19. You did it!





First Steps:
------------
Created by GYO

-=Step 1: Create a Character=-
When you start Terraria, you will need to create a character. This character
 will be your avatar in the game world, and you can customize their 
appearance and name. You can choose to play as a male or female character, 
and there are different skin tones and hair styles to choose from.

-=Step 2: Start a New Game=-
After creating your character, you will be taken to the main menu. Here, you 
can choose to start a new game or join a multiplayer server. For now, let’s 
start a new game. Click on “Single Player” and then “New”.

-=Step 3: Generate a World=-
Next, you’ll need to generate a world to play in. You can choose the world
size (small, medium, or large) and the difficulty (softcore, mediumcore, or 
hardcore). The world will be randomly generated, so each playthrough will be 
different.

-=Step 4: Explore and Gather Resources=-
Once you’ve generated your world, it’s time to start exploring! Use the 
arrow keys to move your character and the space bar to jump. You can also use 
the mouse to interact with objects and attack enemies.

As you explore, you’ll find different resources like wood, stone, and ores. 
Use your pickaxe and axe to gather these resources. You can then use them to 
craft items like weapons, armor, and tools.

-=Step 5: Build a Base=-
As you gather resources, you’ll want to start building a base. This will be 
your home in the game world, and you’ll want to make it as safe as possible. 
Use your resources to build walls, doors, and furniture. You can also place 
torches to light up your base at night.

-=Step 6: Fight Enemies=-
As you explore the world, you’ll encounter different enemies like zombies, 
slimes, and demons. Use your weapons to fight them off. You can also craft 
traps to help defend your base.

-=Step 7: Progress Through the Game=-
As you continue to explore and gather resources, you’ll unlock new crafting 
recipes and items. You’ll also encounter bosses and other challenges that will 
test your skills. Keep exploring and fighting, and eventually you’ll be able 
to progress through the game’s different stages.



Celestial Pillar’s Tips:
------------------------
For the Stardust Pillar you can cheese it by luring some stardust cells away 
from the pillar to then kill them, let them grow again and repeat until they 
don’t give more red particles, or if you’re a man you can just kill all the 
enemies.

For the Vortex Pillar I don’t really know any strategies, just try to fly 
over the enemies that try to shoot you and movement is key with the fast 
proyectiles.

For the Purple one (don’t remember the name) I also don’t have many tips, 
the same as vortex just hover up the enemies that shoot proyectiles and be 
aware of the enemies that blind you.

And for the Solar Pillar just make a platform to don’t fly, because if you 
have the high ground you can just kill the enemies and those like “dragons” 
won’t spawn if you’re always on the ground, so just use a platform and kill 
the enemies, some of them can reach you but if you kill them quick enought 
they won’t.

You can also use weapons like the rainbow gun or the “Rain” rod to do constant 
damage to the pillar, that way you can even beat him all the way to the other 
side of the map! Useful if you want to prepare to the Moonlord with more than 
1 minute.

Note: Whatever class you’re going for, I would recommend doing that pillar 
first, that way you have some decent weapons to finish the rest off with.

* Solar =Warrior
* Vortex = Ranger
* Nebula = Mage
* Stardust = Summoner



Tips for Finding the Lava Charm:
--------------------------------
If you cant get lucky, then your best bet is to fish for it in the underworld. 
Naturally they spawn in any golden chest in the lava layer of the cavern layer,
but its still all down to luck, so you may have a better chance of getting one 
from fishing.

You can get it from Obsidian- or Hellstone Crates fished from Lava Lakes or 
from Chests in the Lava layer. You can also get it by tranforming a Magma Stone 
in the Shimmer, just throw it in there an a Lava Charm will come out.

Alternatively, magma stones can be shimmered into lava charms, so you could set 
up a farm for lava/hell bats.
