Terraria Expert Ep. 1 - Scary New World

[@ramirez9317]

Reminder! In expert mode, you drop 75% (instead of Classic's 50%) of your money on death, And enemies can steal your coins! Not to worry though, enemies that have grabbed coins will not despawn until you exit the world (unless they're 'rare enemies', which will despawn if they get too far away) and killing them makes them drop the stolen money, so as long as you track down where you die and kill the enemies, You will get your money back!

Hey Captain! The different tiers of metal ores go like this. Pre-Hardmode: Tin = Copper Lead = Iron Tungsten = Silver Gold = Platinum Demonite = Crimtane Hardmode: Cobalt = Palladium Orichalcum = Mythril Titanium = Adamantine FYI they're not exactly the same. they have slight statistical differences, and some of them have different set bonuses, but I don't have them memorized. PS: someone let me know if I got something wrong of if I missed something. It's been a while since I last played Terraria, so I might've remembered something wrong.

Tips & Tricks: >This time make sure you *pick up all chests* you find in your travels. Using different types of chests for different types or qualities of items can be *very* useful when building your sorting system!! For example, one of the vine-wrapped chests from inside the giant trees for nature stuff, one of those blue underwater chests for fishing stuff, gold chests for ores and bars, etc. Having named chests is great, but having named, visually distinct chests is _much_ better. I always know where my stuff is; "Oh, good gear is in the 2nd shadow chest from the left", etc. >Use Spelunker potions as soon as you have access to them. They *dramatically* speed up the process of grinding for ores, heart crystals and treasure chests. >You'll want a place to grow Daybloom, Waterleaf, Nightbloom & Blinkroot for potions, since you'll be needing a lot of them. Daybloom & Nightbloom should only be harvested when blooming (or you won't get seeds), and Waterleaf should be placed just submerged in water (or you won't get seeds when harvesting). You can use the planter boxes sold by the Dryad, or just plant them on regular dirt/grass. >It's also very worth buying the Miner's Helmet from the Merchant (aka "Meatball"), as it acts as a constant light source, and for early game exploring (until you get a light pet) it's low defense value isn't that big of a deal since most armors won't be much better anyway.

[@Micboss1000]

Waterleaf doesn't require being submerged anymore, it now blooms during rain. Fireblossom blooms around sunset for a few hours and no longer requires lava. Staff of Regrowth is amazing for herb farming (tip: you can craft it into a very good axe which retains the staff's function).

[@beeftips1628]

I think he was told to do all of this already, still good to reiterate though. Also water leaf doesn’t need to be in water, and he also said he thinks he might want buffs in expert mode so here’s to someone teaching him farming and fishing.

[@captaindanger13]

To ppl who dont read descriptions. This was his 1st episode of expert uploaded on the main channel over a month ago. Only 2 episodes were made, because while terraria is basically the best performing series on this channel, on the main it didnt perform well enough to justify the cost of editing.

on expert the only differances to really note is enemys have more health and do more damage and bosses drop "treasure bags" that have loot in including expert exclusive stuff (1 main one to note is the shield of Cthulhu dropped from the eye of Cthulhu as it gives you the ability to dash which is a life saver at times)

Reminder that when using smart curser, it's better to have your mouse away from the centre of the screen. I usually have it close to the edge of the screen. This is helpful for things such as mining, planting trees and building with platforms, and speaking of building, unless you're placing walls, it's better to have smart curser off when building tbh.

[@timelesspoultry8849]

im busy with doing a master mode playthrough, and i can only wish you the best of luck, even for expert because it's a step-up from classic. There are benefits to choosing anything above classic, such as special drops from bosses that are harder than what you are used to, also can you try digging down in the little space between your jungle and beach? i heard there is some special liquid hiding there that could make some things such as crafting the PDA and the Ankh Shield less of a painful experience.

Finding an aglet and not equipping it, depositing recalls and health potions, buying a pylon when it's still useless but not buying a piggy bank... At least he learned to keep the recalls on him but the health potions are still in the chest. The umbrella can be useful this early on in the game as it is a weapon and it gives you slowfall when holding it. Surface slimes won't aggro during the day unless provoked. At night they get mad tho, and underground slimes are always mean. "Lifeform analyzers are kinda cool." Kinda? It's rather essential actually, for finding rare creatures like NPCs and mobs that drop rare loot. Though I understand not buying it this early when you have barely any money, just gotta hope RNG is nice to you later on. "I have a terrible feeling the bosses are going to be significantly harder." *laughs in Master mode* P.S. That one bit of missing wall in Meatball's house is really bothering me. ...I realise my comment may not seem like it, but I really do enjoy watching Jardon play Terraria :)
