Hm. Turns out you can combine dyes. Fun.

I'm currently enjoying my status as a walking aircraft carrier, via the Beekeeper sword. Poor Brain of Cthulhu...

In other news, I believe I found a way to oodles of money. Like, large oodles, sans glitch, though requiring some handiwork, inventory space and preparation. Pre-hardmode though, I'm sure there are better ways to earn money later on.

Any of the potions made at the Imbuing station sell for 50 silver. Making any of those potions takes a Water Bottle, and five of the chosen supplementary material. Most of those materials are hard to get, at least in any decent number, except...

Confetti.

Sold for 1 silver apiece by the party girl.

Buy 300 confetti for 3 gold. Take 60 sand blocks, smelt, craft, and fill at any pond to get 60 water bottles for free.
Craft 60 Flasks of Party. Sell for 30 gold.

With the Sand Gun, that IIRC leaves sand blocks, there's even no need to go anywhere for the sand.

Also, I found a Lost Girl underground, and accidentally, well, killed her. There was a skeleton hopping around, and I didn't think to just ignore it, so I clipped her, then she got angry and died. Was there any other possible outcome or is the Nymph just an enemy like that?
I'm always wondering how to get the party girl :S

...Nor have I ever seen the Lost Girl-does she respawn? And..erm, wait, that's a bit spoily on that note on asking her use..

The lost girl is supposed to trick you into approaching her, and then turn into a nymph and attack you. That's all there is to it.

Party girl has a small chance of appearing every day once you get something like 6 NPCs.

I think you have to go through that again every time she dies too, which is super annoying.

except for those easy ones like angel and demon

Which is to me hilarious because it would take me longer to grind out a single angel or demon wing... then it would take me to get FOUR other types of wings.

Also the party girl spawns by percent chance... just incredibly unlikely.

Mind you there is a NPC who is even rarer.

It's been proven, then, that the everyotherwingthatisn'tAngelorDemon is better?!

>_> I feel saddened by my effort on those wings now.

The other wings are better but not by a lot, and some are much harder to get.

Party girl showed up for me once I had 7 other NPC's moved in. I think thats her only requirement.

Quote from: wiki
Wings flight time vary by type. Of the 1.2 wing types: Bee, Butterfly and Fairy provide the least time; Harpy, Bone, and Bat slightly more and Frozen, Flame and Ghost more still making them superior to other variants.
My butterfly wings are the worst, but damn am I fabulous...

I'm playing on a server with some friends I know IRL, we're pepping to take on WoF.  I decided to go magic. We have around 109 meteor bars. Should I make a Meteor+Spacegun combo? Or keep my current Jungle+Diamond rod+Water Bolt se?. My friends don't mind me using the bars, but they think it would be better to keep my current set up.

For magic, I'd go for the demon scythe.  It shreds through all those little tentacle things.  You can swap to spacegun once they're out of the way and direct fire can be applied.

Go jungle and ONLY water bolt, shoot the ceiling at a angle to make the waterbolt hit all parts of the WOF with 1 attack.

Water Bolt is the best spell in the game, hands down.
It's the most fun one, anyway.

With the new update A LOT of spells have suddenly been boosted to amazing (Mind you, some of them really didn't improve.)

Though Demon Scythe is pretty good anyhow.

Actually when I think about it... most of the hard mode items were left untouched.

shadowbeam

Yeah Shadow beam is arguably the best spell in the game currently.

Arguably. It's awesome for dungeon crawling and most types of caverns, but for everything else, there's Inferno Fork.

Magnet Sphere all the way.  Just toss it and then wait.

Or Pygmies and don't even bother.  Summon a swarm and simply walk into dungeons.
