Money Trough



The Money Trough is a reusable item that temporarily summons a flying pet-like version of the Piggy Bank. It has a 0.5% / (1/200 / ) chance to drop from the Drippler and the Blood Zombie, during a Blood Moon.

The Money Trough enables players to access their Piggy Bank contents without having to place the Piggy Bank or any furniture for it to rest on. The floating Piggy Bank despawns after 3 minutes, but can be re-summoned repeatedly at no cost. Re-summoning it while it is already spawned will simply replace it and refresh the 3-minute countdown. The Flying Piggy Bank does not follow the player like pets or minions would, rather hovering stationary at the point summoned.

Tips

 * This is an easy way to have an extended inventory.
 * A useful item for expert mode players who lose 75% of their coins upon death, the Money Trough allows players to deposit their coins at will, regardless of their location.
 * If you do not yet own a Money Trough, you may carry an actual piggy bank around as a "makeshift" Money Trough. Similarly to the Money Trough, it will only take up one space in your inventory, assuming you have a surface to put it on. You may need to carry at least 2 platforms with you in order to place it.
 * Money Trough is very useful item to carry with yourself through whole game, and can be obtained early, before beating Wall of Flesh. When Blood Moon occurs, drink Battle Potion, it will last for 7 minutes, as much as whole night, additionally, place a platform and Water Candle on it. This will increase enemy spawn rate a lot, and will most likely get you Money Trough in first Blood Moon.

Trivia

 * The fact it's a flying pig is a joke on the expression "when pigs fly", a figure of speech used to humorously describe something that is impossible or very nearly.
 * When using or leaving the Money Trough, it emits an "oink", sometimes with slightly differing pitches.
 * A trough is a container that you put feed into for animals (such as pigs) to drink and eat out of hence the fact this item summons a flying pig.
