3DS Terraria is BROKEN (in the best way possible)

[@RaphaelStar7]

Having over 750 hours in Terraria on the 3DS, I found the infinite heal trick only way after the 700th hour, which is still earlier than finding that you can *make* potions yourself, as I never thought about filling a bottle with water, thus never getting the recipes for potions... I had to wait for PC Terraria for that one.

Two options. 1: He was a kid, and got it and played it then. As a kid, your options for games are pretty slim. You make as much fun as you can out of what little you get. Or B: He was a Terraria Veteran/Mobile player, and thus wanted a nostalgia high. Because 3DS is forever outdated. Like, pretty sure its the only way to fight Ocram levels of outdated.

[@slainlogix6153]

Fun fact: In older versions of the 3ds version of terraria, if you got a spear and held down the attack button, the spear would keep extending infinitely toward wherever you were aiming it allowing you to hit things really far away from you.

There was a glitch on Xbox One that could do the same thing during 1.3, but patched in 1.3.1-4. selecting items with the d bad was broken, allowing items to be rapidly used in combination with the magic mirror, and weapons to shoot other weapons projectiles, vortex beater shooting meowmere cats being my favorite. This worked with spears too, but the other weapons were just way more broken compared to a long spear. Also, heart arrows stun LITERALLY EVERY ENEMY IN THE GAME EXCEPT FOR DUKE FISHRON

[@samkeiser9776]

In more words, it was like the hit box would never disappear, and also never fully retract, so if you for example started attacking right, then then started attacking left without stopping attacking, an invisible spear hitbox would extend from your right from the first attack you did and from the left from your second attack, and every time your spear did its motion, those attacks would move further away from your character. Theoretically you could have an invisible surrounding barrier of spear hurtboxes around you but it’d lag your game.

[@dacrystalcreeper7300]

One oddity I found when I played this version recently, is the clockwork assault rifle is broken, like legitimately it’s broken, instead of being a burst that shoots 3 bullets, it shots like 30 a second, so it actually does like 2x the dps of the megashark.

[@Stibly]

I remember using the Clockwork rifle throughout my entire hardmode playthrough as a kid because of this. I thought I was remembering things wrong but no it turns out it actually was that good. Thank you for confirming that I'm not crazy.

At one point, I wanted to see how quick I could kill the Eye of Cthulu with it, and managed to completely melt it in just a few seconds.

[@bariumselenided5152]

This has me nostalgic not only for old terraria, but also for the ds era of nintendo. The dual screen layout was so useful for so many games. Even if a game didn't want to use it fully, it at least acted as a second monitor with a map or menu always up. I still miss it

[@klpliper]

also loved when the games used dual screens creativly

[@Gamer3427]

Being able to use the second screen in various games for stuff like inventory or just tracking extra data you'd normally have to open a menu to see was great. Plus depending on what you were doing in games, having the touch screen allowed for more precise control than you'd normally have in PC or console games. It also allowed for a lot of inventive games that'd be a bit awkward to play with more normal controls, like Pokemon Ranger where you had to rapidly circle pokemon with the stylus.

[@rockman7005]

have you seen the patents for the supposed switch 2? its looking like dual screens will be making a return

[@weepgamer]

@rockman7005 I don't think those patents will actually become a final product

[@renakunisaki]

It's actually an idea they had toyed with for quite a while. There were GameCube games that could use the Game Boy Advance as a second (and third, fourth, fifth) screen. That was even planned to be a feature with the Game Boy Color and Nintendo 64, but never made it to release.

the best part of mobile is how due to some added stuff from later updates like duke fishron, pumpkin moon and frost moon it would be a tremendous challenge (duke fishron is downright a superboss, the events are brutal since even with the best items you'll be shredded if not careful, mostly on frost moon, ocram felt like a cakewalk in comparison)

[@PLASBEZ]

​@@reginangel_officialAnd the heart arrows on a shotbow just solos about everything, miss those times

[@aseldesu]

the reason for the drax being in shadow chests is that back when mobile released, there was a wall of flesh but there was no hardmode, so they sprinkled some hardmode things throughout the game, then i guess they forgot to remove it once hardmode actually got added Also ocram was a thing before all the 1.2 content including plantera and golem, he's a final boss in a post mechs way

[@Beepers559]

[@Atrau-]

i too remember that mobile version when there wasn't any hardmode but Wall of Flesh still existed for some reason. If you compare it to the PC version, it was basically mixing some things from 1.1 (like WoF) while staying pre-1.1. Maybe some exclusive content existed but I don't remember any of it :| I tried searching for this version on a wiki few years ago but couldnt find any match, so i just called it a day edit: nvm just found it, ver. 1.1.92 on Google Play (Android) or older. On IOS it's 1.1.935 or older

@Jedericdotzip iirc, it had something to do with the ichor debuff. I think the way me (and a lot of other people did it) was to get hit by ichor (or any debuff that reduces your defense), then go to the inventory and remove your armor (if you take your armor off first you’ll just die). Pretty fun oversight, although not too terribly useful.

I played on those controls and I could basically never use healing potions because I would have to take my left hand off of the movement stick, go to the hotbar, select potions, use the potions, go back to whatever I was holding, and then start moving again. You’re going to be taking more damage than you’re healing in that time. Also the quick buff button is great, and, although I’ve never played mage on mobile, I could only imagine how nice the mana potion button is, because you’d have to do that same process with mana potions.

Old Mobile was truly a gem, also Crimson was super rare at one point for worlds to spawn with, and same for the alternate Hardmode ores There was also a point where on character creation they gave you 50 of all the base ores (up to gold and platinum), so you could farm infinite of them by just making new characters. Also Lepus and Turkor were insane for pre-hardmode bosses. Turkor has more health than WoF, and Lepus can basically lock you into a VERY long (potentially infinite if you're stubborn) fight. Though Lava deals with it well. And man, the Tizona was always a fun weapons, as well as the Tonbogiri and all the old weapons and armours. And I miss all the old alternate enemies, like the Arch Wyvern, the Hornet alternative and the Orca Oh also being able to use a chest so long as it appears on your screen (you know, given the touch screen), also touch controls for placing and mining blocks makes a lot of sense...

[@godofseals5039]

Spit facts 😂 I loved how the tonbogiri hit through walls and the tizona was the king of true melee. Back in the day I played on phone and ipad, and the ipad was so much better because you had a massive screen and access to all 10 hotbar slots, phone only had 5. My favorite build was tiki armor with the twins summon and vp knives cause whips weren't a thing. Most of all, I miss the countless glitches wether intentional or not. Like the taking items out of a chest at the same time, or infinitely spawning chests, or even when you got the 1000th platinum coin and accidentally put it with a stack of 999 platinum coins, you got a plain singular falling star. This is such a throwback to how the final bosses were ocram and duke fishron. Maybe we could also get the events like frost and pumpkin moons.

[@Epicwatermelondotzip]

This is the first version of terraria i ever played, and I am just now realizing how many things about the game were broken.

[@prodqrn]

the "*NPC Name* would like to settle down" text is so nostalgic for me oml

[@MinerDiner]

Dude just casually gets a lucky uzi drop without intentionally farming for it. I don't know if I've EVER gotten an uzi in any of my regular Terraria playthroughs even with farming

[@alexmacic5955]

The Paladin's Hammer was busted on 3DS. Autofire, range, piercing, and high damage! Loved it so much

[@dopevaporeon]

Fun thing I found out in my playthrough. After defeating just one mech boss, it's possible to get the Terra Blade as Broken Hero Swords drop from Swamp Things in this version. You can also keep exiting and reentering the game right before morning to reroll until you get a solar eclipse.

[@TheSilverLeaf79]

There was a glitch on the first versions where if you take the Twins to the top of the map, if they went passed the world limit, they would despawn, so if you "deleted" one of them then took down the other, it would count as defeating both so it made them by far the easist hard mode boss.

[@BasementDweller_]

I love how it has both the console and mobile exclusive items and bosses.

[@engineergaming6319]

This reminds me of when I would binge the StampyLongHead Terraria series in 2017

[@cerulean_games]

Did bro miss the jungle key mold at 20:03

[@LilSmiffy214]

I was really hoping to see the skeleton key get some love, you can stunlock kill a dungeon guardian with heart arrows and they drop a summon item for a mimi-dungeon guardian if I remember correctly

[@dadalikalama]

It still exist in the latest version btw, now you just can't cheese dungeon guardians with love arrows

[@animeloveer97]

@@dadalikalama it has been in the game for a very long time lol

[@traetonjarvis8748]

I played this version a TON with my 3 younger siblings through local multiplayer. Some of the best times I've had.

[@spectraldragon09]

So this os the main way ive learned terraria and its very strange going from this broken mess to 1.4 on pc. Terraria will always be amazing no matter how broken it might be.

[@Crit-Chance]

"Dude why am I actually enjoying the 3DS version of this game" bro that was me with the mobile version when Amazon gave it away. I got it just cause it was free, didn't really expect to enjoy it much because I'm not super into playing games on a touchscreen, but MAN did I have fun with that game.

[@calicogaming8313]

I loved the key molds, it felt good to have them already so you could get vampire knives way easier

[@b1oodzy]

20:01 He got a jungle key mold and didn't pick it up

[@godofseals5039]

Just saying, the reason why the there were specific recipes for the summons, weapons, and armor was because cobalt, mythril, adamantite were the original in the phone and ds versions, the other ores were added later on but the recipes were not updated.

[@CharlieDoutt-uw6kw]

at 20:00 a jungle key mold was dropped, and not mentioned, and in the corruption? odd.

[@totallykukri1427]

This is such a great video for me, I ended up getting almost 2000 hours on 3ds terraria back in the day. Endless new worlds and characters, so many playthroughs. Thank you for the nostalgia Gungnir😌

[@nutellasquid3373]

Ah, so many nostalgic features. Such as the drax pre-hardmode, that old classic terraria look, and the inability to place anything in the spot you want it

[@eoghangallagher843]

He missed a jungle key mold when he was farming for admantite

[@lordravenblade]

I love that the Holy Hand Grenade uses the Worms style “HALLELUJAH” right before it explodes.

[@naerolf09]

In older versions of 3DS terraria there was a exploit where if you rapidly click L and R to swap your weapons it would cancel the animation of the weapon you are using so for example you could use the boomstick or shotgun and rapidly shoot while canceling the long end lag animation to destroy bosses It is still possible to do this glitch however now you need to use the touch screen I dont remember exactly (because it has been multiple years) but i think it was either swap weapons rapidly or you needed to swap to the map and back to spam shoot the weapon

[@L1v1ngDeAdGirl]

I know it'll never happen but I seriously want the console exclusives to come back to modern Terraria. As someone who's only ever played the console version, both old and modern now, this video brings back so many memories. Ocram was such a cool boss and the seasonal bosses are great ideas and fun challenges for early game.

[@Ctmeb]

Hopefully in 1.4.5 or any coming updates they bring back old 3ds and console content

[@manachromeYT]

Very unlikely considering the poor quality of the old gen content

[@RandomghoulZX]

​​@@manachromeYTThat and the fact that the console-exclusive content was added by 505Games and not the Terraria devs. Not to mention how the Lephrechaun Pet is literally an early-game money exploit, and the other pets function the same as what are now summoner minions.

[@weskertambemjoga8261]

Legally speaking, re logic cant make ocram back, they arent the creators.

[@Entvari]

​​@@weskertambemjoga8261They are able to legally add him back, Relogic still holds ownership over the content added to console terraria, it was content added to their intellectual property and accredited to both Relogic and 505, by all means Relogic has full rights to what they want with Ocram. But just because they can doesn't mean they will.

I still play the 3ds version super often, and it makes me happy seeing someone bigger give it some love! It's personally my favourite version!

[@cheese_walker]

What a shockingly relevant video for me to find lol, I haven't played it in a while but that's the only version of Terraria I own

[@xxtechnocatxx916]

Mobile/3ds terraria was such a vibe man. Good times

[@Darkwing4L]

5:11 what’s funny is in my original play through of terraria on mobile I got the drax casually and used it my whole playthrough until the cloud save bug deleted my whole world

[@gamingshark920]

As someone who got Terraria on the 3ds back in 2017 used on game stop it's nice. Though I never could find a way to break it. I just compiled it up to Golam did try to fight Fishron but was impatient to find the worm. Maybe I'll return to it.

[@tac9918]

Its worth mentioning that the version 3DS is on is a version before the spectral armorset recieved a damage nerf for the hood, meaning you deal full damage with the hood, as opposed to (like, -40%?) less. So you heal about 10% of the damage you're dealing (a lot)

[@Matuserrano59]

20:02 did he missed a key mold?

[@zmechanicog1535]

it was the jungle key mold

[@bellycar8702]

yep saw that too

[@stevenoobgod3280]

Yup! he missed the jungle key mold.....

[@karonzilla]

Bro this takes me so back. terraria on the 3DS is pretty much almost identical to the terraria on mobile devices before the 1.3 update, and thats the version that i used to play all the time, especially in the 4 year gap between me first playing on mobile and me finally getting the PC version. i mostly remember playing the 1.2 mobile equivalents altho when i started playing i prob played the 1.1 version before the update got added to the app store (also there was a version of 1.1 on mobile that had no hardmode content whatsoever). i remember i used to play it a lot as a young child but it was pretty hard and i never really made any progress (didnt know how to get NPCs moved in at first) and barely even engaged with my worlds, altho i got some skill after watching some youtubers. also you beating skeletron almost right away reminded of how skeletron was the first boss i beat (somehow). altho when i returned to the mobile version when i was a bit older it was a lot easier cuz i wasnt a little kid in primary 1/2 and i knew how to lock in. altho i never usually managed to progress past eye of cthulu i still have a lot of great memories ik there's a chance that you can get old mobile terraria back but its prob pretty hard. i miss those days

[@WeredogCanivir]

Hello! I still play Terraria on the Ps3 regularly! And the Sharanga can take you all the way to Plantera and even a little farther. Also the Molitov cocktail is broken, especially if your using frost armor.

[@nodachi2874]

20:03 imagine you miss a jungle mold, just imagine

[@snowthearcticfox1]

As much as i would love 1.4 on 3ds i love how its a time capsule. It was my first ever terrarria experience and i still enjoy it

[@julesvesparia4036]

I miss 3ds terraria. I spent countless hours playing terraria 3ds with my friends over weekends and summers and during road trips, I’m on my way to college and have upgraded to switch and now play terraria on switch.

[@narnianninja4964]

I love Terraria on the 3DS and Switch. I actually just beat the Moon Lord for the first time yesterday on my Switch!

[@streaky_6]

Honestly the 3DS edition to me is like the definitive old gen version. Old mobile stuff, old console stuff, classic zapinator; plus a bunch of fun jank. And I just really enjoy the controls, I swear nothing has beat it's lock-on system.

[@non_binary_deus]

Thank you for this video) it reminded me of how I started playing terraria from the old mobile version. I haven't played 3ds, but I played until version 1.2.4 on my phone. It was broken the same way 😁 I hacked biomic chests with a pine block, without molds for keys and the keys themselves)) Vampire knives conquered everything. I also loved fishing. And I remember that I could catch a lot of boxes and save them, and open them in hardmode. In this way, I had both armor and the ability to summon an okram. When I was upset with the new mobile version , because it was no longer so convenient to play, the original things were removed. I was very fond of the leprechaun, which could be bugged in the door and dropped coins endlessly. I loved all the exclusive bosses and still miss them. Sorry for my bad English, I'm writing with a translator)

[@Tmaster2006YT]

Ah… the days of getting the Drax before wall of flesh and using Lepus to farm the crimson key mold with a pool of lava. Me and my brother spent hours playing this version together trying to get all the rare items and finding exploits. Good times.

19:36 Sand is overpowered.

[@purplehaze2358]

This video gives me nostalgia for something I've never experienced.

[@drnpc1474]

Fun Fact before an update that came out on 3ds. There used to be very little to no item swap usage delay so you could indefinitely swap between weapons with no delay. So with 10 godly Sharkron flails. You could make a mass bubble beam of extremely high damage in that version (and add vampire knives to heal as well)
