Pot

Pots, not to be confused with Clay Pots, are a common sight in Terraria. They can only be found underground and very rarely directly on the surface. When smashed with any tool or weapon, they have a chance to drop Coins and/or a random common item. Pots cannot be picked up.

There was a rumor stating that if you destroy the pots with a hammer, there is a higher chance of drops; this is untrue, however.

The only time Pots can be found on the surface is next to the entrance to the dungeon (the part where the Old Man walks).

Items that can be found from pots include:


 * Lesser Healing Potions (Uncommon)
 * Copper or Silver Coins (Common)
 * Bombs (Uncommon)
 * Wooden Arrows (Between Uncommon and Common)
 * Torches (Between Uncommon and Common)
 * Glowsticks (Uncommon)
 * Hook (Rare)
 * Whoopie Cushion (Really Rare)
 * As of 1.0.4 Water Candle (Really Rare)
