This Terraria mount is incredibly awesome...

[@sockrteez]

This is one of those additions that I'm so glad exists, but will probably never use again lol

[@GelatinIsCool]

Superheated blood is one of my favorite mounts but I barely go fishing in the underworld and never get it

[@LavaCreeperPeople]

nice

[@joha_21]

Lava shark is hot like really hot! But not as your face reveal The living reference of Lazy Town :D

[@IMAVG]

This is actually really useful for Master Mode FTW Wall of Flesh because the final parts of the fight he can move so unbelieveably fast but the superheated blood was the only thing fast enough to let me and my friends beat it

[@E12345E]

we used golf carts on the legendary zenith seed playthrough, pretty standard but it works too ig

[@CastCreator]

Personally I used the horse from the zookeeper but I prepared my entire arena with the shark in mind and I am in pain

[@marinmizu]

Yes, this and the golf cart are extremely good for dealing with master mode+ wall of flesh, since they have enough speed that can keep up with the wall of flesh, although I think the golf cart works much better when you're using night's edge and the lava shark when using summoner, ranged, or mage

[@Palemis]

I blew my entire hell in getfixedboi to use this mount against WoF

[@CastCreator]

@@Palemis did it work?

[@FunnyMantf2353]

I surprised not many people are use ing this mount, it literally nullifies the giant lava lake in the drunk world.

quite a bit why I love this seed the dungeon tho...is why I hate it pain to get the skeletron outa there and I ain't planning on digging out an arena for him

[@seDrakonkill]

@@somedude4087 I kinda enjoy the digging. But also Dynamite BALLIN. Demoman STONKS on that seed.

[@Kingdaboi8]

I agree this made my drunk master mode run easier

[@Grebogoborp]

The issue is all the buildings and terrain that interrupts that lava combined with the annoyance of acquiring it making it just not really worth the effort a water walking potion and an obsidian skin potion fill the same role and take about 1/50th the time to make yeah they are not reusable but you really only go to hell for hellstone shadow chests and the WOF so spending the time to get the required gear to fish in lava and then spending the time to actually do said lava fishing is just very inefficient compared to making 3-4 potions or a big platform

[@somedude4087]

@@Grebogoborp well if you got terraspark boots in interest you'll get plenty of those at least they're quite alright cost wise

[@bialex8083]

BTW, you don't have to fish in the underworld for these crates, any large enough lava pool will do the job.

​@@Izzythemaker127just use normal buckets

[@Izzythemaker127]

@@metal_pipe9764 I know you can, but I was mainly responding to @guardian696 because they said to get the infinite lava bucket, which requires lava fishing to get. And then all I did was clarify that I didn't mean the infinite liquids glitch, but yes, regular lava buckets with or without the glitch would be the most efficient.

[@nikisan4506]

For Legendary mode (Not Zenith seed but FtW) it is insanely good against the hemoglobin shark and dread nautilus. The mount allows you to quickly get away if anything bad happens and allows you to stay safe. I encourage anyone to try it and see how well it works!

[@metal_pipe9764]

I'm going to do that

[@Ic1clez_]

I unironically use this to fight the mechs and Duke in the ocean. Cool tip but if you use the endless water bucket under you with this mount equipped you can move extremely fast anywhere. Reaching 70mph in pre-hardmode (just beware of the water cleanup) Additionally you can technically get this pre-boss if you get the golden bug net from angler quest. Which can make every pre-hardmode boss a breeze.

[@alexanderlea7882]

Also golden rod. Hilariously, hotline fishing rod is way harder than golden rod to get, they really need to remove the hardmode and 25 quest requirement

[@wqfled]

@@alexanderlea7882 unless they changed that in 1.4.4, the golden rod never was able to lava fish without bait or the accessory. i definitely tried when i went on my fishing spree for supreme helper minion

[@aceofconquest5745]

I can confirm that this is true. You can place a endless bucket of lava/water on your character while on the mount to fly anywhere. Flying at 70mph pre-hardmode.

[@DinnerForkTongue]

I remember the Lava Shark mostly from Wand of Sparking's "lava-flooded world" series. It was so good there that people thought it was a broken item.

[@bluecube9515]

A fellow man of class I see.

[@PythonzFire]

I see i wasnt the only one lmao

[@wedmoke8856]

when me and some friends started a new world to play on around when lava fishing was expanded on, we found this mount by complete mistake and the whole server became obsessed with it. we all got our own superheated blood and dyed our sharked different colors. this obsession lead to the removal of water in our right ocean, and the creation of a huge lava ocean with a charred degraded stone bridge remaining over the ocean. we even fought duke fishron on the shark mounts. probably made things harder but was awesome nonetheless. whole thing was completely pointless but we did learn that the duke can be summoned from lava fishing with truffle worm.

[@dragoknight589]

Terraria: where fighting a mutant dragon pig fish with a lava shark and a gun you found is an extremely viable tactic.

[@damienhall2039]

This actually tends to be my mount of choice pre hard mode, and I plan on using it against WOF in my zenith seed playthrough

[@IMAVG]

Very recommended with the lava sea on both sides of spawn its basically meant for it. also try building a roof or something to block the lasers. those and the For the worthy amplifier to the WoF that makes it spawn fire imps that shoot indestructible super fast fireballs at you are going to be the main source of damage for the zenith seed Me and my friends like to call them giga imps because they are the reason it took 20+ attempts it beat it. And no, it’s not a skill issue I have like 700 hours prepare for a terrible but relieving fight once it’s done

[@hydroneeon119]

Its extremely useful for that seed where you have an humongous lava pool in the underworld stretching for thousands of blocks

[@sco0t26]

Drunk seed?

[@hydroneeon119]

@@sco0t26 correct! I used that mount actually for fighting WoF.

[@dummigummi353]

Via the same methods (fishing in lava) you can get the bottomless lava bucket, which when used with the superheated blood, and a little skilled placement, you can infinitely fly so long as you don't mind lava being poured everywhere

[@krimson5736]

I used to use him to build platforms because he is just perfect for building platforms by just holding the joystick to the left(I'm a mobile player) without falling

[@Vanguard_parlliament]

So it's very slow on surface( less than 10mph)

[@iratecastorcanadensis3971]

It's got comedic value in multiplayer, I'd always equip this mount away from my friend on land and slowly wiggle onto his screen

[@vortexian411]

This mount is perfect for the Drunk World seed because it makes the WoF battle so much easier and removes the need for a platform bridge.

[@bobdull3148]

Usually I just drink a water walking potion on that seed

[@nekomatagaming1]

The lavashark is pretty cool in my opinion. I find it to be a fun novelty item tbh.

[@kahil101]

Nobody is gonna talk how it moves just as good in honey as well? That is the only thing in the entire game that allows you to move pretty damn fast in honey

[@judearmstrong1260]

I just got this mount for the first time yesterday and I love hearing someone just geeking out about how awesome the concept is

[@Hunterofbones]

Lavashark helped me beat the first two phases of Fishron, third phase i had to dismount from it because i went so fast fishron ended telefraging me, really fast and useful mount

[@TheRealChangeOfPace]

PreMechs is definitely great to have this mount against Duke. But you could always wait until beating just one, then getting a Neptune's Shell from the T1 Solar Eclipse to get infinite breathing in water. Definitely going to try it out on my next run. I've never done Duke before Plantera.

[@NasusGamer]

I actually get this a lot because whenever my brother and i do a playthrough we would always finish in the underworld for Molten Charm for the Terraspark Boots, but that was before Shimmer was released, now you can get Magma Stone (That item that imbues your Melee & Whip attacks with Fire) and you can drop it in Shimmer for quick and easy Molten Charm.

[@Mallard_Games]

It’s one of those items I’ve never knew it existed

[@isaagamerplays]

On my 2nd playthrough of 1.4 I went lava fishing, very much reccomend this mount it is so fun.

[@therealjome]

I loved this mount the second I laid hands on it, it's an essential item in my terraria playthroughs. Its useful for traversing the underworld and lava fishing for some pre-hardmode terraspark boots. I'm also trying something out for my zenith seed playthrough, where I'll have a lava cave at the bottom of the world and I can use it as a way to get through the underworld quickly.

[@ferosythemobilegamer4505]

Already use this and boi, its sure is fun and also useful for pre-hardmode

[@ZtotheMills]

I both love fishing, and also tend to play with others as a sort of 'support', so I usually find myself taking stock of who wants the terraspark boots and fishing for lava charms until I get enough. Which ends up netting me a shark or two anyways. And man, I love this thing. I especially love if BECAUSE its a fishing reward, which I seem to be one of the few people who specifically prefers fishing over mining, so I always have the weird items nobody else even considers getting.

[@panzernerd8486]

This is actually really fun with the infinite water/lava bucket you can fly

[@venomousslime6797]

I imagine it's super good in the Drunk seed where there's a large pool of lava in the middle of hell & not as good, but still pretty good in the Don't Dig Up & GFB seeds where there's some decently sized pools of lava to the left & right of the island in the middle.

[@Muichiroskatanaaintthatdull]

This is amazing on the drunk world seed because there's a huge section of lava with no land, keeps you from having to build or mine away to fight the wall of flesh.

[@GhostHunterDipperPines]

I used this on my mage play through during late pre hardmode. (I was doing angler quests for cell phone and got the hotline fish hook, so I fished in lava and got this out of a crate) The lava immunity acting as a free obsidian skin potion was so useful for traversing the area. Definitely a niche mount for a specific part of the game but very useful then nonetheless

Best mount for the Drunk Seed which is my favorite seed so im more than happy to chase after this mount whenever i can!

[@petersusilo9588]

While fighting bosses in underwater, Hunter Potion, Night Owl Potion, and Shine Potion are recommended

[@flambrasd]

You can use endless lava bucket with the shark mount and fly, negating it's low jump but it floods the world with lava as a side effect

[@KaiteWDrey]

I'm an advocate for the lava shark and my best tip for using the mount efficiently pre-hard mod what i recommend is trying it out when playing in a drunk world seed! Considering the drunk world seed inverts generation, the middle of underworld is already flooded with lava and with very little work that can be done on top of the lava shark you have a perfect clean pool of lava for the wall of flesh

[@przedwczorajszyszprot9931]

shark mount + honey skybridge = ideal area for mechanical bosses

[@dink6530]

In my master mode ftw playthrough with my girlfriend this was the mount we used to beat wall of flesh by flooding hell with lava. Although it took forever to build, the fight was a breeze because of the shark

To add to this, in Calamity you can easily cheese the WoF on the Drunk World seed. WoF will do the same attack pattern over and over if you stay in a certain spot away and below it, far below the lava. I know technically it's not the intended way to play Calamity.
