Oh dear.
I know the mob you are referring to.
I dislike them...
Much.

And to think, you aren't even in hard mode yet.

[Relus]

So you are saying that the mob we are referring to gets worse in hardmode?
I'm talking about the variant of the mob that spawns in a new biome.

Yes ALL the new Biomes are tougher in Hardmode. Including some of the previous ones (Jungle Biome for example)

[forsaken1111]

Mushroom biome previously was no big deal.

Now it spawns minibosses.

[Relus]

I knew Hardmode made some biomes more difficult, but it is good to see that the Jungle gets more difficult.
And the mushroom biome with minibosses? I'm in Pre-hardmode, do they spawn now?

[Skyrunner]

So, is a Day 1 hardmode server even harder to live in now?

[Neonivek]

Honestly? Not really.

About the same really. Heck a few are direct clones.

[umiman]

If you see a slime that has spikes sticking out of it... beware...

[Relus]

Funny you should say that...
Discovered just how difficult some of them can be.
Specifically, the Jungle variety...

[Frumple]

No, no... they're not minibosses. I think. Just... normal mobs. That kinda' hit around the level of hard mode mobs, really. Average >200 hp. Barring the shroomzombies, move pretty quickly.

And spawn pre-hard mode. Also those bloody ladybugs are monstrous. One occasionally follows someone back to spawn. Usually claims a few lives before someone puts it down.

The... the mushroom biome on forsaken's server may have been a minor mistake. It's very pretty, though! And there's a couple NPCs stuck in it, now >_>

(Protip: Later tonight it's probably going to get bigger, as more jungle mud gets transplanted. Do think I'll build a overhead transverse, though. Maybe a tunnel under it. Something to make getting through less of a pray-a-ladybug-doesn't-spawn thing.)

[Relus]

Hey guys.
I really recommend the Gem Staves you can craft with eight of a gem, and ten bars of a certain material.
That is all.

[Sergius]

I don't think I've fought a Blood Crawler, but I have seen one.
Mainly, I've just been rushing through the biome they appear in, which I shall not name, to get to other places.

They're those red spiders in the red biome thing, right? They're more icky than deadly, really.

I killed one with my copper pickaxe.

If anything, the whole Blood Biome is creepy as heck, so it's probably more a psychological effect.

[Sergius]

Yeah and it's filled with veins and other body-horror stuff instead of grass and vines... cool actually, but some people will find it very unsettling.

And by some people I mean me.

[Relus]

Do you desire to learn more about that biome?

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

The Crimson is another version of the Corruption. If the Crimson is naturally spawned in your world, the Corruption will not naturally spawn. The Crimson is, in many ways, very similar. There is an equivalent to the shadow orbs, and they drop different items, as well.

Bigger Spoiler, involving a boss.

As the Corruption has the Eater of Worlds, the Crimson has the Brain of Cthulu. It has many 'creepers' floating around after it, and it will occasionally teleport. It will ram you to attack. When all the creepers are dead, it will open up, and reveal a heart with eyes. This is when you can damage it! Piercing items work great. It will teleport after every couple of hits.

Anyways, beat one of the new bosses four times, the Eye of Cthulu five times, killed Skeletron, went into the dungeon, went into the jungle, and am ready to go to Hell. My defense is twenty seven, and my new armor is pretty good.

[Sergius]

I'm... pretty sure I generated a world that had a Crimson on the left and a Corruption on the right of my spawn.

BTW, you can make your base out of hallow or corruption bricks now and they won't spread.
