So just got done placing about 4k dirt blocks in preparation of building a castle in the sky. I think that's enough for today.
My hard drive got corrupted. I had my OS on a different drive than all my games, music, videos etc, but I forgot that my steam saves were all on the OS drive so I lost them all : ( So I'm starting Terraria as new again. (Skrym too but that's for another place). I was up to having a molten pickaxe and basically everything I wanted from the last patch, so it'll be interesting starting again. I need a new idea for my house.
Still on the early stages of the game, got full silver armor and tools and searching for gold now.
I have a nice garden of plant pots filled with moonglow, blinkroot, firebloom and a few other things, endless spelunking and lava immunity potions working on adamantite armour at the moment
as for my issues with multiplayer, I found a very detailed guide showed me but on the very last step it says 'Invalid Port' when I know for a fact it is a valid port.
it would be fine since my friend is a better option for host but I cannot connect to his games and hamachi will not ping, a yellow explamation mark next to his name (and my name when from his PoV) says something about 'tunnel' Im afraid we just gave up after hours of trying to find solutions, none of which worked.
Edit: If you are having trouble finding gold ore try close to lava pockets, I need it for my potions and chandeliers, I find it in abundance down there aswell as cobalt and bits of adamantite that I need.
There is a far, far, far easier way to get a server going than using Hamachi now. Just use the official Terraria server tool, it's very user-friendly.

Giving it a shot now, thanks very much herecius
Edit: Update it does not work at all we can run and join our own server but cannot connect to eachothers, I cant find any information about this any help would be appreciated

You have to have the port opened up properly on your router for someone to join using Terraria's server program. It's a pain to setup though >< Sometimes it seems like it works(for me) when setting it, and others it's like FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU. But after getting it to where your friend can connect to you, you really don't have anything to worry about.
I got bored and decided to drain an ocean into Hell. Made lots of obsidium that way.
That is neat as heck, I'm going have to make something like that. I need a ton of chests for my current project, and getting them that way would save a lot of time. Crabs as a way to constantly trigger and separate circuits that way could also be very useful. Currently any timer-activated traps in my security system have to be rigged in very specific ways to not just turn the whole circuit into a mess.

It's rather simple. You can do it with one crab or 3(or two even). What you do is, spawn the crab(s) and then trap them on the pressure pads with the active blocks beneath the statue. Then profit assuming you have it hooked up right(the chest is also sitting on active blocks). When you're done, you'll need to kill the crabs with a ranged weapon(that's what the hold in the wall there is for) or else they'll dupe the chests endlessly.
also, any chests will do. I only used shadow cause they're worth the most(and moneys are fun ^.^)
Hello guys.
I made this thread to ask a question about the EoW hardmode (the Destroyer). People say he is the easiest boss, which he seems to be but i still can't kill him.
I got full adamantite melee gear and the adamantite sword. i also got an arena which looks like this one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yg4XSZhaFcI
i Normally seem to die to the lazers and i dunno how to avoid them.
ANyone got any good, working tactics?
Thanks in advance
If your having THAT hard of a time, here's a clever way to beat it.
Get the charm that increases the invincibility time you get when damaged, replace the entire floor of the arena with meteorite, DO NOT USE the obsidian skull and you will continually take 1 damage ticks from the meteortie and avoid most of the damage that the destroyer does to you.

In other words, stop breaking shit with your fat ass.
I used to use a Hamdrax because it was the highest damage weapon i had and low and behold, Goblin invasion came and i fought them off. Needless to say, my house was utterly destroyed by the time it was over D:
I just started over, new character and new map because i went on a server and ended up getting alot of stuff that i shouldn't be getting for quite some time ;p
That and the map was made before 1.1 so none of the new stuff was being generated.
Also debating on what to build once i get things going again.
