It's under the umm, trinkets bench, whatever that's called. The recipe is 3 ingots down the center and then two bars, one in the left bottom and one in the left middle.
I'll have to look into this. One time I dug out the block under my ladder because I didn't know better and the whole thing fell apart!
I played for about an hour in multiplayer and neither of us got any recipe drops. Is that normal or am I missing something? Anyone else have this issue?
So the deepest you can dig is to that sort of gray line of rock that's kinda streaky? I reach that line and it goes across the whole screen, when I try to hit it there is no red message telling me I need a harder tool. I figure that's the absolute bottom of the game, right? Beyond that row of rocks its just black.
Or maybe two different devs came up with similar ideas in the same time period. It's happened before and it'll happen again.
Yes. Once you hit the in breakable rocks you've hit the bottom. Although its not perfectly even and there are some parts where you can dig a bit deeper.
When I did have a ladder tunnel system, I would made it 3 segments of ladders going down, so that when an inevitable ladder collapse happened, the fallout would be mitigated. In the original, I had also dug a single line to the bottom of the world, and placed a cloth block at the bottom, to break my fall.
Is there such an item as a magic mirror as is in terraria? It allows the player to teleport back to their spawn point (mainly to the top), rather then spending ages climbing back up.
Yeah I can see it sort of going up and down by one block along the length of it. I was forced to make several segments because I ran into some water or some other obstacles. And sometimes I ran into an existing channel that was a few blocks over so I used that instead of digging a new tunnel alongside it. I don't think I have any cloth blocks, to add one I'd have to collapse my ladder I think. I tried to keep my channel one block wide along the whole length so I couldn't fall down, I would always land on the ladder.
My favorite strategy in this game is to encrust an armor item with topaz, giving you the ability to breathe in water, then start digging in a lake/pond/puddle. The water will infinitely fill any area beneath it and up to 4 blocks horizontally. You can then create a waterfall ladder that will allow you to swim back up. It also mitigates the danger of digging into a pit under you and falling as well as allowing you to drop long distances safely into a pool.
I really love this game but 2 thinks I couldnt figure out so far: 1. Is there any way in game to see the specs of my items (especially the weapons) like range, damage/power, ranking of the materials (gold is better than silver I guess ) etc. 2. When I check my crafting book I see a hundreds of recipes I definately not found yet, even for crafting tools I do not have (like cooking ware for example). So whats the point of the dropping recipes if I already got all (?) 'em? (I don't have simple crafting activated) Thanks 4 help!
I've had this game for two weeks and played A LOT, and I only have found one portal piece...... I am assuming many have this same problem knowing the world is huge, and there are only three pieces scattered randomly anywhere in the world, they need to do something about this in the update. I've dug the heck out of my world, yet only one piece...come on. somethings gotta give.
More than three portal chests can exist in a world. It also varies depending on your method. If you're just exploring randomly, you're less likely to find them than someone who searches deliberately. For example, multiple lines straight to bedrock spaced apart a bit. Or numerous horizontal rows 6-7 blocks apart. Someone who's really lucky may find them faster by just exploring, but someone that searches systematically will find them while someone just randomly hunting could accidentally bypass one in a small, unnoticed area.
1. Once you equip wearable items and weapons, you can check the effect on your character's stats by clicking in the appropriate place to bring up the stats. For things like the digging power of a gold shovel, for instance, I don't think there is any specific stat. So I guess you have to rely on a best guess, like Gold>Silver etc. 2. I can't be sure about this, but I think there are certain recipe pages that unlock a whole bunch of recipes in the book, in one go.
Others have chimed in, but here's some information that should put your situation in perspective: the world is 768 blocks in width, ground accounts for 220 (and up) of the 256 total world height. That's over 168,000 places that a minimum of 3 portal chests a whole 1 block in size are hiding. If you're not being methodical, you're counting on finding them by the BFI method (Brute Force & Ignorance). There is nothing to fix, that's the name of the game. If you're not in it for the thrill of the treasure hunt, you can always unlock planets with the IAP unlock, but otherwise you need to come up with a strategy that guarantees you will find them. Some people drop zig zag tunnels from top to bottom every 8th block or so (depending on specifics of how they do the back and forth and torch placement). I drop a mine shaft to as deep as I can go and then start digging horizontal tunnels 3 blocks high, torches every 4th space (leaves 3 empty places between each torch). As I uncover more and more, I have a torch every 4th grid coordinate vertically and horizontally, there is nothing I can't see and the only things that can hide from me are the occasional crate or ore block in behind a floor/ceiling layer, but all chests and the vast majority of ores and other goodies are discovered by my method. Whatever method you choose, it needs to be something that will eventually reveal 100% of the underdark. Portal chests are just 1 block in size and you can miss them as little as 6 blocks away.
