HUGE TIP PLEASE READ this is just something Id like to say about the water walking potions for WOF tip, if you don't want to build a bridge sure do that but the bridge may come in handy later in hardmode if your like me and want fire wings really early that bridge will make fighting the red deamons so much easier and they will have more room to spawn. also the bridge (depending on the size you built it) can spawn lots of hell mimics which are also really good for early hardmode so I recommend building the bridge and if you don't want to you could also use water to make the top of the lava obsidian and gain the same benifits

[@kentlab3850]

1-use a sticky bomb to fight queen bee on the surface. 2-how to get to the temple without killing plantera ( 3 hammered stairs in the direction of the door) + bring a wire cutter to disarm the traps. 3-use planter box instead of platforms, he says it's cheap but really it's quite expensive if you compare it to platforms. 4-use menacing accesories when summoning then switch to warding accessories when using a summoner build, only usefull for pure summoner. 5-tip for getting rid of water usign a chest and lava, you put the chest in a 2x2 space under the water, put an item in, and put the lava on it, 6:15 for visuals 6- you can move the golem altar before the fight by placing acuators on the 3 blocks under it, then connect them to a switch and it's done 6-bis- you can also use actuators to flatten the terrain in the temple if you wnat to stay a bit fair. 7- instead of doing hellbridges to fight the wall of flesh you can use a water walking potion and an obsidian skin potion, the second one isn't necessary but just in case you can take it. Just don't forget to get rid of some building walls on the path to avoid getting stuck.

Tip* if you want to reforge your weapon or accessories but you dont have much gold just save the game log in then turn off the auto save then set your spawn near the goblin tinkerer then reforge and if its bad and you dont have money close the game and dont save but make sure to save before doing this or else things you did before you do this trick will be gone what will happen is when you loged in and reforged, when you closed the game without saving the reforging you did wont be saved, meaning you will get your money back and the old modifier so contenue doing this until you get the modifier you want :D

[@thecosmicjester4024]

I remember the Red's wings "life hack"- using 4 stacks of 10 dirt blocks in a chest to get Red's wings easily. That's probably the best one so far

[@bbarcus9144]

I may have already known all of these, but it’s cool to see you raising awareness for them. Anyway, here are some life hacks I use: 1. Set your quick mana hotkey to right click, which lets you basically have a mana flower without consuming an accessory slot (only one magic weapon has a special right click ability, and it’s utterly trash.) 2. ACTUALLY USE THE FACT THAT SUMMONER IS NOT BOUND TO ONE CLASS LIKE THE OTHERS. My god people, you can’t call summoner trash if you clearly don’t know how to play it. Red himself said that summoner was balanced around the fact that you can use both a swarm of minions AND a weapon. 3. Menacing and Lucky are both a 4% increase to your dps, so when reforging for menacing, treat lucky identically unless you use summons.

When it comes to the Wall of Flesh, I personally prefer to build a long railway. They're easier to build if you keep your mouse in the right place and the minecart gives to a fairly consistent speed so you can keep the Wall of Flesh at a constant distance away from you as much as possible. Another advantage to making railways is it's very easy to get up to make a skybridge with rails. I also use rails for my skybridges too.

[@csikocska]

These tips are really useful. Though I know the Water Walking Potion, I didn't use that buff potion so much. Now I see this is helpful when I feel like I am prepared to fight the Wall of Flesh boss (in vanilla and modded worlds). :) I hope the devs of Terraria will polish out the content of 1.4 Journey's End Update until 2020's Summer.

[@juhanipolvi4729]

Another nice thing about using planter boxes to build bridges is that liquids (including lava) will go through them without removing them. So if you use planter boxes to build a hellbridge (for WoF farming or whatever) you can easily bomb blocks above it to make some more room if needed and if there is any lava stored up there it will just flow through. Also, if one wants to farm lihzard power cells before killing plantera it is easy even in pre-hardmode world even without entering the temple. If there is an alcove in the jungle temple before the door the PC can make lihzards and flying snakes to spawn by standing in front of temple wall outside the door. Some of them will spawn outside the temple and can be easily taken care of with a lava trap. By equipping a treasure magnet the PC can then easily collect the drops from the alcove below. I also increased the effectiviness of this by pouring lava inside the temple using bottomless lava bucket (you can do that from outside the door) so that any lihzards and flying snakes spawning inside the temple would quickly die. Got absolutely loads of power cells and solar tablet fragments. Oh, and I also found a nice easy AFK mimic farm netting lots of mimics and around 10 platinum/hour.

When you are in the early game and dont have any wings or lucky horse shoes then you might take fall damage because an enemy hit you off of something or you’re just careless. But you can use a grappling hook when you are about to hit the ground to save yourself from a potential death or take damage. Keep in mind that the grappling is a little faster when going straight down then you falling

[@phoenixd2863]

Extending the summoning hack: You can seriously pump up the damage of your minions with a full reconfigure before summoning them. The wiki page on summoning weapons has a routine for max power, but even if you're not a capital-S Summoner, you can switch to a summoning armor set as well as swapping in accessories. It's not just the modifiers, there are several accessories that boost summoning damage or "all damage", and it all lives on in your minion. And once you have a Bewitching Table, you can get *two* beefed up minions, and keep them as long as you remember to refresh the buff every 10 minutes. My general routine is: B-table, Food, Wrath potion, various accessories forged to Menacing (basically the best I have from the accessories listed on the wiki), and best summoning armor I have (currently Tiki), summon, and then go back to my regular loadout. And take the staff off the hotbar, so I don't accidentally re-summon them later. ;-)

A tip regarding summon damage- vanilla summons will all determine their damage on initial summon, but *not all modded summons will.* Some recalculate as they go, some will 'reset' when your damage changes, etc. Do not assume that'll work for everything!

Honestly the water walking potion was a mind blower.

On the flip side, if you use frostspark boots and royal gel and make your hellbridge out of ice, you won't have to worry about lava slimes being a threat, you get extra speed on the ice for expert wof, and once the hallow takes over your ice bridge, you can easily run along it and farm the crystals on it

The only life hack you need is "git gud"

[@nksuke5988]

How to make a bridge in hell like a pro: get frostspark boots build the bridge out of ice only remove at least 5 blocks of ash under all of the ice optional: make another row to make a tunnel and use a weapon that goes through walls, remember the ash block removal from top as well This will make you fast enough to escape the wall, it will stop the bottom eye from ever hurting you since it only goes on top of the ash blocks and not anything else. If you make a tunnel you keep yourself save from the top eyes lasers which only leaves the hungry's, leeches and the mouth part to deal with. On top of that when entering hardmode some of the ice will turn hallowed allowiong for a pretty good crystal farmming spot. I'd suggest adding walls into the tunnel as well sp mobs don't spawn in your way.

“When you’re playing summoner you’re going to want a lot of defense” As a person with 3,000 hours on the game, summoner is not a defense class. If you’re playing solo summon, you need to put all focus on your character, and use summons like a passive HP drain. Instead of focusing on defense, focus on damage and avoidance. Menacing accessories, ninja gear, and lots of other related things. Along with that, you want to have two summoner accessory builds. One for when you’re summoning, and the rest for when you’re actually playing. Summons get boosts from when they’re spawned, meaning that once they have been summoned, they have their effects placed. This is also why people use both Spooky and Tiki armor, as they have different effects and switching between the two before and after summoning is extremely important

[@usern4metak3ns]

Yup defense won't really help a summoner in expert mode. Need avoidance and damage.

[@nivdy]

Emerald Hunter it really doesn’t. Summoner doesn’t have any ability to get enough defense to matter. You’ll do better getting avoidance than defense, because even if you do get the 20/24 defense boost, you’ll still be extremely low with defense. At the beginning of the game 24 defense is good, but for the rest of the game it’s such a little amount it won’t have an effect. Compare that to menacing, where you can get 20/24% damage boost you’ll do much better. The second accessory combo would do better focusing on avoidance, to help you dodge the damage, because playing summoner is like being made of glass, no matter the defense boost you give.

[@usern4metak3ns]

@Emerald Hunter when your Dragon is doing 6 to 10 k dps and you can die by most bosses in one or two hits you end up realizing defense won't really help a summoner.

[@nivdy]

Emerald Hunter and I’m explaining that 20 defense isn’t enough to matter unless you’re at the very beginning of the game

Because she doesn't has spawned

I like how all of these are common sense LOL thanks man.!

[@ajhintleman215]

300 hours on terraria and I didn't know about the planter box platforms...also nice advice on the hellbridge!

[@jamesroberts497]

So...I saw this video, and the first thing I thought..."Hmm...that's a neat world he did the into in..." so naturally, I made a replica, by hand, in an un-modded 1.4 journey mode world...based off of the first 42 seconds of this video... Keep it up Chip!!

[@ILikeCHEEZ9]

Whoa the planter box thing was super new to me. I usually just spam my hook diagonally downward to creep forward quickly as i'm building platforms so that I never accidentally create stairs but its a slower process. WATER REMOVAL, the liquid physics glitch can be super useful for creating biomes, farms, and arena but in exploration and building this is a life saver holy crap For the WoF fight I sometimes use potions but what I usually do is go through and break the walls of buildings and do some slight terraforming so i can actually run because expert mode is cruel and being stopped for a few seconds by an obstruction is lethal...also losing all the potions I prepped sucks too...

Ive been waiting for a new life hack videos cuz they are actually useful and fun to watch!😁

[@Smokey3j]

You can also use plant boxes for growing your plants on because you can't destroy them with weapons

[@theregularterrarian3933]

Chippy: 'references CRABBAR' Every Crabbar fan: Oh yes

[@aristocraticcthulhu3831]

Just wanted to thank you for making these videos. I've started playing Terraria with the 1.4 release and these tips are going to be very useful.

[@maurenfredrick1077]

You really don't know how long I've been waiting for this.

[@Dhalin]

One thing about building a hell bridge though is if you build it out of Ash, you will get a *ton* of those fire herbs if you go back down there a few game-days after you beat the WoF, lol. And it would kinda stink if your water walking buff wore off in the middle of the fight or something if you weren't doing enough DPS to actually kill the wall before the thing wore off. Also, I don't like blowing 2p on Leaf Wings, so after killing the Destroyer, I usually go down to the Underworld to get a Fire Feather (unless I get lucky with rain and get an Ice feather instead) and those towers are really, *really* nice for safely fighting the Red Devils because they hit like Mack Trucks (150-170 damage in _Normal_ mode!).

[@ParadigmZwei]

I've always fought the Wall of Flesh using that method. The simple fact is that the "Hell parkour" method of fighting it is just way more fun. It adds an extra layer to the encounter so it isn't just a run-'n'-gun fight.

[@hydroxiel7728]

I know some hacks I've learnt myself. When hardmode happens you can use the underworld to travel and not get killed by hardmode enemy's on the surface You can also find many hardmode ores in the underworld. The dart rifle or dart pistol is a bit more powerful than ranged weapons in the early hardmode. The grappling hook can remove fall damage when you time it right. The demon scythe can protect you from annoying hell bats in the underworld. The mechanical glove is better than the fire gauntlet with more damage for melee.

[@andrejz8954]

A tip for Chippy: Get used to the Shift button, and use 1 and 2 slots for something more usefull!

[@Shicksalblume]

I prefer building the bridge in the underworld because I prefer a level surface to fight the WoF on. To prevent lava slime damage, use obsidian platforms. Those aren't destroyed by lava, if I recall correctly. To get the obsidian you need, just make an infinite obsidian generator (plenty of viable designs).

[@matthewparson3879]

The water walking is good though I build stone bridges mainly to see where my underground hallow and crimson/corruption is to kill king slimes for souls of night/light respectively but good ideas. Will definitely be attempting these in a future playthru

[@alexchenoweth1265]

Question: Did you make that base with the original version of Terraria or did you use mods? I am new to thw channel so I dont know if you explained it already.

[@MineSlimeTV]

Goddess that castle that was at the begining of the game that you showcase was astonishing. Also is it me or i find it odd to having such a far and zoomed out game? It's the same with starbound watching its videos and it's bizzare for me to viewing them as the action and all is so far out. But I am still glad of seeing you whenever I can Mr chippy!

[@Anders-ps5wj]

This is my favorite series he has

[@ChippyGaming]

Thanks man!

[@dr.l.gladsonjose2285]

9:15 I actually used water walking pots my first WOF fight because I thought making a huge bridge is just... Too much hastle .

[@ShadeTheBade]

Building a hellbridge with blocks instead of platforms, with periodic holes is personally better than just a water walking potion. The reason I think it's better is because I can ensure I don't get stuck on any blocks, and I can get rid of the buildings entirely.

[@draftypuppy781]

I don't know if anyone has mentioned this one, but if you place a torch, banner, or anything that can be walked past you can protect your building during a blood moon since zombies and the like won't be able to open your door inwards.

[@abadgurl2010]

Do you place it inside or outside the door?
