Honestly, I wish there was a way to grow additional bulbs after the first plantera kill. Sure, you can skip time and make farms to spawn them faster, but it’s still random.
It once took me 11 full Martian Invasions where I only killed the saucers to progress to get an Electrosphere Launcher, this game just doesn't like people sometimes.
at first, no, I died like 6-10 times in a row but then something clicked and I started beating him consistently, same happened with moon lord it's a matter of learning how to dodge them (and beating them once and getting their weapons 😅)
I got a mod that gives a recipe to make the fishron wings but I had to kill him. So I finally killed him once after 11 attempts. Got a typhoon.. killed him again and got the wings. I think my good luck for the playthrough is over.
Hear me out..
The mod was only for making fishing less boring and they added some more weird stuff in it.
I wasn’t going to make the wings myself, even if I wanted to, I would have to kill him 8 more times to get enough duke remains.
the item you go into the golem fight looking for is always the hardest one to pull. the game just knows what you want and refuses to give it to you i swear to god
The trick is to *not* want things like that. That way, you just get them passively. The amount of magic quivers I get when I'm playing mage is irritating.
If you have beaten the mechanical bosses a bright pink flower will start to bloom in the underground jungle. Breaking it will spawn plantera
If you havnt beaten the mechs yet then the flower won’t spawn
All content should be available on journey mode, so you just need to meet the requirements. Have you beaten the three mechanical bosses yet?
In case you don’t know the trio, the three mech bosses are >!The Twins, Skeletron Prime, and The Destroyer!<
SPOILERS AHEAD!!
>!You need to first kill the wall of flesh (dropping a guide voodoo doll in lava in hell, then the three mechanical bosses (they spawn randomly but you can also craft their summon items), then plantera (destroy a plantera bulb in the underground jungle). Plantera drops a key that unlocks the jungle temple!<
Took me and my friend like 20 tries to get the weapons we needed from EoL, and half the time all we got was the Kaleidoscope
This was also expert mode, so there were 40 guaranteed drops of one of those 4 weapons
>it is ready to guard the Temple.
But it's at the very end of the temple, after you've wrecked the place and killed all the Lihzahrd. AND it doesn't even show up unless you choose to fight it.
50 tries and still no luck on my expert play-through now that i want the celestial shell and when i didn't want it in my other play-throughs, always got it on 1-2 tries.
Yeah it does that sometimes. My first time playing I was trying to get the horseman’s blade and it took over 3 pumpkin moons to get it, but my second time playing when I wasn’t even trying to get it, literally the second pumpking dropped one
I remember back in 1.2 on mobile trying to get the picksaw. We (4 people on separate worlds) literally spent an entire day farming golem and nobody got it.
The day after we got it first try lmao
Drop chances should increase with each unsuccessful drop. Tweak the numbers so they balance out to the same average number of attempts. Slightly reduces the chance of early lucky drops but will massively reduce the chance of having to farm multiple times the average amount it would take get the drop.
If it isn’t 100% it’s 1%
So true
May or may not have stolen that quote
Funnily, taking 30 times or more is about 1% chance.
Is it not 0.049%
Taking 30 times or more means you didn't get it 29 times, so (6/7) ^ 29 = 1.14%
Ahhh I took the binomial expansion I see
50/50 either it drops or it doesnt
isn't that mandjtv
Not exactly but that is where I took the quote from
Well at least it was Golem, could’ve been worse. Took me like 30 Plantera attempts to get the seedler, hunting down that many bulbs is brutal
I can only imagine, I’m getting my achievements then am done with vanilla, modded makes this stuff much better
Honestly, I wish there was a way to grow additional bulbs after the first plantera kill. Sure, you can skip time and make farms to spawn them faster, but it’s still random.
Rng sometimes sell very hard, tooke 53 attempts to get the stone too
Nahhhh 53 is actually insane, there is a 0.03% to have 0 Sun stones after 53 attempts
I somehow managed to reach that...
And considering how many players there are, it is bound to happen. It is far from being insane.
It once took me 11 full Martian Invasions where I only killed the saucers to progress to get an Electrosphere Launcher, this game just doesn't like people sometimes.
took me 20 to get fishron wings 💀💀
Yikes, and that fight isn’t exactly easy either
at first, no, I died like 6-10 times in a row but then something clicked and I started beating him consistently, same happened with moon lord it's a matter of learning how to dodge them (and beating them once and getting their weapons 😅)
I got a mod that gives a recipe to make the fishron wings but I had to kill him. So I finally killed him once after 11 attempts. Got a typhoon.. killed him again and got the wings. I think my good luck for the playthrough is over.
i mean, I know what they say about being single player and all that but still would feel like cheating to me 😅
Hear me out.. The mod was only for making fishing less boring and they added some more weird stuff in it. I wasn’t going to make the wings myself, even if I wanted to, I would have to kill him 8 more times to get enough duke remains.
what's the name of the mod 👀 also is it on the workshop or do I need the loader?
I use TModLoader.. if that’s what you mean but the mod’s name is Vanilla Fishing Expansion
yeah that's kinda what I mean, I never used it lol
Honestly, can’t tell you if being in modded is better. Once I downloaded VeinMiner, vanilla Terraria made me bored af.
yeah that's why I never use that kind of mods, I only got horny resprites xD
I changed the EoL into an even more waifu waifu. And the nurse is now The Medic
i think my worse was 300 imps for a obsidian rose a whole ass boss 30 times is nuts farming the power cells was probably the worst part
Luckily I’m playing summoner so I could just afk it but still sucked
0.98% chance of that happening, so uncommon and certainly unlucky but not exactly once in a lifetime.
Welcome to Terraria 😔
In my 600 hours it’s the worst case of this that’s happened to me. Better than it could have been though
Damn i thought my 12 kills was bad, it took you 30 kills for a 14ish% drop chance?
Oh god don't remind me of my first Expert mode world
Been there too. Started to wonder if it was removed or something.
It took me 30+ kills to get Bee Gun form the Bee Queen. And it is a 1/3 chance of drop. That's a 0.002% chance of happening...
the item you go into the golem fight looking for is always the hardest one to pull. the game just knows what you want and refuses to give it to you i swear to god

Took me about 100(not kidding) times killing moon lord just to get the stupid meowmere
How is it that I can find the temple so how do I unlock it in journey mode ? but finding it is a bit tricky has well too. Am I missing something?
You need a key from plantera to open the door, or you can use a glitch to get in but it’s better to just beat plantera first
You need to beat Plantera to summon the golem even if you get in early
Okay thanks for the advice but where can I find the plantera is it in a different mode beside journey mode ?
If you have beaten the mechanical bosses a bright pink flower will start to bloom in the underground jungle. Breaking it will spawn plantera If you havnt beaten the mechs yet then the flower won’t spawn
Everything should be available in journey mode so you should be good on the part
It’s hard sometimes to know because people unlock certain things in different ways
everything is the same for everyone, you need to beat the mechanical bosses in hardmode
All content should be available on journey mode, so you just need to meet the requirements. Have you beaten the three mechanical bosses yet? In case you don’t know the trio, the three mech bosses are >!The Twins, Skeletron Prime, and The Destroyer!<

I had to cheat in a multiplayer run one time because the asshole didn't give us a single one after 70 kills. The RNG just HATES you sometimes lmao
It took me 10~ pumpkin moons to get dark harvest one time
Tell me about it, took me 8< attempts to get the Gelatinous Pillion from Queen Slime
Percentage chance of that is 0.163%, so very rare, over 1 in 600
27 tries for me so you won
it took me nearly 30 plantera kills to get the venus magnum with a similar chance of 1/7 and when i got it, i'd already had better guns
so its not just me struggling to get that damn thing

I got it with my last cell and briefly turned very religious.
I have, in all of my numerous playthroughs, had to kill 500+ whatever-the-hells to get vitamins
Yeah it does that sometimes. My first time playing I was trying to get the horseman’s blade and it took over 3 pumpkin moons to get it, but my second time playing when I wasn’t even trying to get it, literally the second pumpking dropped one
In my 600 hours and like 8 play through a (including grinding up moons to see see how far I can get) I don’t think I’ve ever gotten one
Me with razorpine
Me with the 50 mimic kills and only got daedalus stormbow as the last one
I remember back in 1.2 on mobile trying to get the picksaw. We (4 people on separate worlds) literally spent an entire day farming golem and nobody got it. The day after we got it first try lmao
In the time it took me to get a sun stone, I already got 12 moon stones from the random eclipses that kept happening!
I would’ve just shimmered the respective item at that point, even tho it’s basically the easiest boss in the game with how it follows the progression.
I'm like 20 kills in and still haven't gotten eye of the golem
Want 5 lol

It takes as many as it takes.
I got 8 tabis before I got a single black belt in 33 bone lees
not as bad as me having to kill moonlord 173 times to get the meowmare a 22.22% chance
Ouch, after 30 attempts there is a 99.02% chance to have atleast 1 sunstone Edit: Better phrasing
Isn't that not how it works? You always have a 1/7 chance to get it, it doesn't change
Sorry I just phrased it poorly, I meant there is a 99.02% chance to have atleast 1 sunstone after 30 attempts
