Thanks to pots and treasure chests I generally have the spare coin more often than I have an extra 5 iron/lead bars to burn. It does require you building a home for the merchant before you have an anvil though.

Yes, u can put one Bar in the crafting menu of the Guide to check how many you need. #5 Cyborgt View Profile View Posts 15 Jun, 2014 @ 7:08pm

Yeah, i'll do the same sometimes but that depends on what I find while spelunking and whether I feel like rushing it. I generally like playing a fresh run by exploring then spelunking for a while before pushing through the corruption/crimson bosses so I usually end up with enough ore to make at least one of the sets of armor before i've moved on. At the very least the iron/lead for the anvil can often mean the difference between a pre-spelunking metal broadsword and having to go down there with a wooden one or a pick for a weapon.Iron/lead in particular has so many uses in both ore and bar form that burning 5 bars of it before you've even begun using it seems like such a waste to me. I rarely find I miss the coin more than the bars after making my choice but there are times when I find enough early metal to make it more worthwhile to craft it myself.

Yup, you always need all the materials on you to make something before it is visible in the crafting menu. It would be pretty difficult to find what you wanted to craft even with the relatively new quick select button if it didn't filter options like that.

That's good advice in general. It can save you having to refer to the wiki as often if you make liberal use of the guide. Dropping any item that can be used as material in crafting into the box that pops up will list everything it can be used to craft and the crafting station needed to make it. I still use that feature myself when I forget the exact requirements to make something. #6 Chaossealer 夢 View Profile View Posts 15 Jun, 2014 @ 7:16pm Well, it's not like I'm rushing or anything...I just don't like the very Early-Game, so I usually just explore a little bit to get some accessorys and money, get enough wood to build a few npc houses, and then start slapping the Brain or the EoW in the face :DAlso it's quite challenging, killing the Brain with almost no Equipment ^^ #7 Cyborgt View Profile View Posts 15 Jun, 2014 @ 7:26pm

Eh, that depends on your luck breaking orbs/looting chests leading up to the Brain fight. If you happen to get a spear (of any kind but a rotted fork is certainly nice) and crimson rod then he can be pretty easy to beat, or at least to take out enough eyes to make better gear for the second try.I just like exploring my newly generated worlds for a while before pushing it to that point though so I often end up with more than enough ore to make whatever I want. I'd advise making a deathweed farm ASAP though. There's little more annoying in this game than finding yourself in need of deathweed after having wasted a half dozen early game blood moons on other things. #8 Dream_777 View Profile View Posts 15 Jun, 2014 @ 7:32pm thanks everyone for the help and tips :) #9 Chaossealer 夢 View Profile View Posts 15 Jun, 2014 @ 7:33pm Yup, Rotted Fork and a Crimson Rod vaporize the Brain, but if you want a challenge you simply dont have to use the Crimson Rod and/or the Fork, but well personal preferences :)As for the Deathweed, thats actually quite a good idea, though I didnt really used it in my previous playtroughs. On the other hand I dont have a Mainworld, where I would have needed it. Should do one in the near future I guess :D

Yeah, it's pretty easily possible to get through this entire game without making a single buff potion but they can be a lot of fun to mess around with. I used to make rather extensive herb farms but as i've played the game more and more i've put less and less effort into that part of the game. I still haven't bothered with Terraria's fishing on any meaningful level because of how little there is to gain from what is otherwise a pretty boring bit of gameplay.

You're welcome. Feel free to ask whatever questions you like. They just won't always be answered quite so quickly due to the nature of a forum... #11 Chaossealer 夢 View Profile View Posts 15 Jun, 2014 @ 7:53pm I do some fishing if I have nothing else to do or am waiting for night and stuff life this.Basically the fishing is just for some collectibles.But a few Buffs you can create trough the catched fish are quite good, like the Warmth Potion, Endurance Potion, Lifeforce Potion and Heartreach Potion for Frost Moon.Anyway, I'm going to sleep now, was up way too long for the past few days O.oSo cya :P #12 < > Showing 1-12 of 12 comments Per page: 1530 50 Terraria > General Discussions > Topic Details Date Posted: 15 Jun, 2014 @ 6:07pmPosts: 12 Discussions Rules and Guidelines
