Beating Terraria in an invisible world...and finally revealing it

11:53 never thought I'd see triangulation used to find Heart Crystals in Terraria, lmao

[@Gamesaucer]

This is actually legitimately how I find things in a normal playthrough with the metal detector (at least if it's not immediately obvious where it's pointing me to). Especially in the underground desert there are tons of small little isolated caves that you could easily overlook otherwise. I could probably avoid most of this by just bringing spelunker potions but I always forget to, even in the late game. The only time I remember that potions exist is when I'm about to fight a boss lol

[@TreeckoBean]

using the confetti gun js such a unique solution this playthrough is so good thank u WoS for the goated content as always

[@Starfloofle]

it also looked absolutely fabulous

[@geo4876]

26:00 I love how you can just see the thought process here just based off mouse movements. Buys one confetti and uses it because confetti, then a "wait a minute..." moment, before realizing they could be useful and buys a bunch of it

[@1WolfFan]

If you have a flare gun in your inventory when you find the skeleton merchant, he'll sell you flares that work like the fancy glowsticks. With your two coin-biomes, you could max out the ammo on it, no sweat, and just fire flares everywhere to help you find ground, AND make treasure shiny. Even though the challenge is done for you, this might be useful advice for someone else attempting this madness on their own. ;)

[@RayAleciana]

fun fact: the reason you were getting a lot of rare drops is because a lot of enemies have been dropping their coins into your shimmer, which boosts your luck minimally in most cases!

[@underscorn]

The luck stat actually doesn't have that significant of an effect on drop rates, especially because luck is capped at only 1. I'm sure it helped, but WoS was just lucky outright.

[@Redence680]

Someone told me once on a multiplayer server that the luck bonus is only within a certain distance from where the coins are shimmered. This means that dropping coins into the shimmer under the left ocean then going to farm RoD on the right side of the map will have no affect. Of course they waited to tell me this AFTER I had dropped 30 platinum into the shimmer 💀

[@astronuat2124]

@@Redence680Theres no point dropping more than 1 Platinum, that caps the luck increase. So you wasted 29 Platinum 💀

out of all the playthroughs on your channel this one might just be my favorite. fantastic stuff

[@potatojuiceultra]

Can I just say that your editing is amazing? Maybe its just that our tastes line up exactly, but it feels like you always include the exact right footage and commentary at the exact right time. For example, I love when you show a funny/interesting/important clip with little to no commentary and let the viewer figure out what happened.

[@fanndx]

It's comedy gold of "show, don't tell"

Can't remember which vid it was in this playthrough, but the part where he zoomed in on the gnome solidifying and it pulled the mooning pose made me laugh.

[@jblack3830]

The simple fact that terraria can support so many challenges that fundamentaly change how you play, is amazing.

[@Alnidru]

The flaming stuff coming from the Martian Saucer was Martian Saucer Scrap, it falls off the saucer from where the rocket turrets used to be when the rocket phase happens. Also the instant regret from the Martians is so relatabe 😂

Props to this man sacrificing almost all of his free time for this

[@gairisiuil]

"We'll be able to see though (well, kind of)" is a bit ominous. Congratulations for beating such a monstrosity.

[@jasonpuchniak3629]

17:43 that Puppet Ganon snake theme took me by surprise.

[@ellingtonlinford]

You should do a challenge combining as many of the challenge runs you've done as possible. Dream luck, in an insanely small world that's invisible and filled with lava, shrinks and randomizes each boss, and everytime you die spin the wheel.

[@IndyJay53]

42:15 "Can it wait for a bit? I'm in the middle of some calibrations."

[@amazingfireboy1848]

Welp, that confirms it. There is no debating anymore. Wand of Sparking is a god-tier gamer, demolishing any and every Terraria challenge that he comes across! You are extraordinary!

[@determineddaaf3]

This run was really cool, and the reveal at the end was awesome. Such a beautiful world without us knowing the entire time.

[@Jtheartnerd]

Something I think would be neat is go back to previous challenges from before shimmer was added and retry them to see how different they are.(the block randomizers and the Majorca’s mask would probably be the most interesting)

[@greenphil5170]

Challenge idea: Since u just beat the world essentially blind and random, do another run that's deaf and random, there is no game audio and since ur character is deaf chat messages like boss spawns and it'd a terrible night are gone, and you can't talk to NPCs either ( and random blocks if that itself doesn't seem hard enough)

[@NoName-oz3gj]

Genuinely surprised how much replayability Terraria has with challenges like these. Great work as always!

[@numerpk212]

Honestly, each run like this is so unique and intresting I could watch another one already

[@SCREENDOORONSUBMARIN]

perfect blend of chill and exciting as always. keep up he great work

[@Bakuan]

This is just so crazy that you went through on it. Think one of the best suffering and hardest challenges you have given yourself but damn was it impressive to watch.

[@Khaisz.]

42:14 even before the text I was like "oh a AAAAAAAAAA face."

[@scoopskicat]

Canadien, this might be the best playthough you've done yet. You've put yourself through several mind-boggling hurdles that most players wouldn't even attempt (myself included lol), and still managed to go past even your own goal of beating Plantera in this world. Amazing job! And good luck with the next playthough, you got this!

[@prof-quack]

As a guy who plays Terraria’s Calamity Mod without ever setting up arenas, I can say that your methods for boss destruction seem rather complicated at first, but I can also see they pay off. This playthrough looks like it went well, despite the whole world being invisible and all that.

[@amazingfireboy1848]

Really? I can't imagine fight DoG without an absolutely massive arena... Good job!

[@WhatPython]

@@amazingfireboy1848 You need an arena for DoG? ig for true melee you may want one, but flying up and slimy saddle down works fine for me as any other class.

You don't setup arenas in CALAMITY??? I cant imagine having no arena is vanilla that's insane

[@JohnJohn-r4l]

Supreme calamitas without arena?! Yharon without arena?! You’re a madman.

[@brynshannon6692]

You should get the community to come up with an intentionally selected list of block replacements for maximum AESTHETIC, but keep it totally secret until you actually play the world.

[@monkeyman8309]

If this happens then I'd replace dirt with dirtier dirt

[@brookedoesstuff]

[@bennyk384]

Instead of the Cobalt Shield, you could use the Paladin's Shield. If you found enough dungeon bricks, anyway.

[@microwave221]

The music cut at 36:15 was masterful comedy.

[@microwave221]

And the face was very much there, btw

[@Master_Cinar]

6:51 that looks so nice 🤩

[@ShadyScienceFeline]

The random visible background wall in the underground hallow was presumably because generating the hardmode V can actually generate new biome-specific walls where there were no walls, and the new walls obviously won’t be painted. Edit: The wiki says nothing about the saucer scraps being new, but I think they might not land on platforms, so that could be the reason?

[@Sonic_K]

32:30 the exact same thing happened to me once (just with a slime instead of a harpy)

[@ashoka7273]

The "At least we'll be able to see. Well, kind of" makes me think the next playthrough is gonna be with the blackout debuff lmao

[@TheSquareOnes]

Love these playthroughs, hope they never stop. Based on the "can kinda see" comment I'm going to guess the next one will involve wearing a monolith the entire time, probably void since it's the most disruptive (and if not, well then that's another playthrough idea to try at a later date).

[@Trebord_]

The reveal at the end was crazy, the world both looked as I imagined it and was completely different from what I was expecting.

[@Sabagegah]

42:18 humans do tend to see faces in things.

[@ColonelMustache]

This was one of the coolest challenge runs so far. Finally seeing what the world looked like was a great way to book end it. Can't wait to see the next run.

[@luxiouslox3605]

Awesome series!!! I always love the tour through the random worlds afterwards, they end up looking so amazing!

[@gawain0]

That was quite the unique series! Seeing the world through the googles at the end was definitely a good thing to show off!

[@TheBioFear]

It's a shame you never got your hands on the lantern pet the skeleton merchant sells. It's basically a spelunker potion with infinite use

[@cheesehotdog3471]

As much as I love this series, I would've really preferred if it randomized after each boss like your old series. Would've required a lot more planning and insanity.

This series is so good I almost don’t want it to end😢it’s like the ending of a great franchise.

[@kennycarter5682]

do a few more of these invisible worlds. but with the bonus of a few blocks being visible. imagine a world where the rng just so happens to only have vines or just sand visible? etc. it sure be helpful to have islands of visbility if you get my drift.

[@DeuxisWasTaken]

This was amazing, good job getting through it to the end too lol

[@Jig_up]

13:39 I know when corruption and such spreads, it can change background walls- maybe when the hallow side of the v was made, it somehow changed them and removed the paint? Or possibly it was due to an earlier spreading event, but that’s what seems most likely to me

[@nathanbruun5033]

Nazar can also be obtained from Cursed Hammers, Crimson Axes, and Enchanted Swords, so even without shimmer you still could have gotten it

[@clockwork_king]

I really like that WoS is still doing this sort of challenges, especially this one as it is bound not to perform that well because as a viewer you got almost nothing to look at

13:39 on hardmode worldgeneration after the hardmode V has been created if there is a cave below surface level and above the underworld that has an infected block the cave will be filled in with walls of the infection's random natural wall.

[@Cookiedude06]

The biome which used to be the crimson has mercury brick wall, which can possibly be shimmered down to luminite, potentially allowing solar armour to be crafted pre-moonlord if this is a valid shimmer transformation

[@WandofSparking]

Unfortunately, those don't shimmer back into luminite.

[@ivanovich_8726]

at 16:30, I think the rates may have been buffed due to the killing of enemies over shimmer, them dropping coins and the shimmer turning the coins into luck.

[@ryanhacker5259]

Will you complete the thanos and small world playthroughs you started a few months back? Also, great video and series! This one was super cool.

[@gaelonhays1712]

30:50 Note: this only works because the Temple structure does not register as a Temple in this world. Normally, you can't view wiring inside the Temple until Golem has been defeated.
