Remember that time when you first activated hardmode and defeated the wall of flesh? Remember that feeling of ps age and thrill and excitement? I'm sure half of you also remember the new dangers that greet you when you return to the surface. The Crimson or corruption and hallow overwhelm you in a matter of seconds and soon you're crying your heart out while unicorns and pixies try to cheer you up. Here's one heck of a guide to help you not end up that way. 1. Preparation saves Plots: as you probably already know, you are in control of the world. If you're expecting those deeply npcs to help you, might as well start making unholy water cause you ain't gonna succeed! It all starts in prehardmode. When you have the basic necessities, build an arena, or for people like me, don't, and fight the eye of cthulu. Craft some good crimtane or demo its armor, a new set of weapons, and tools. Then go to the Crimson or corruption and defeat the brain or eater of worlds. Well the remaining ore for money, as every batch gives about 9 gold coins. These can be used to save up for the flintlock pistol. Keep this for now. Then, get poisoned knives from chests or the merchant and crafting, as they work very well on skeleton. Go in the dungeon once skeleton is dead, take some bullets from the all dealer, and raid the dungeon for a muramasa and a cobalt shield. Note that a handgun will relieve an infinite amount of stress here. Now, go underground and make some obsidian. Creating scaffolding and series of platforms can help not die in the obsidian creation. Using your crimson or corrupt pick axe mine the obsidian until you have twenty. Take this and make it into an obsidian skull and combine it with the shield to make an obsidian shield. Equip this. Go in the jungle and destroy spores and get stingers. One easy way to do this without death is to create an enclosed shaft with platforms with one block openings and doors, so you can shoot and collect the stingers. Create the blade of the grass. Also the bane of light and blood butchered should be with you. Dig your first helluvator. The width should be 5 across with no walls with many platforms. Build this near your spawn as it will help save your village in hard ode. If possible, build one on the other side and if you're serious about this, create some around the jungle. Go to the underworld, where you'll discover the shield is a great help as hell stone doesn't burn you. Speaking of hell stone... You need it. Build a small path down beneath each patch. Platforms can help here, but don't stand under it when mining, as hellstone releases lava which causes some real death from above.on platforms near the stone and carve it away. You should collect the stone and the lava will be deposited in the pit. A lot of mining is required here. Get a lot of hellstone and craft a full set of molten armor. Equip it. Create a fiery great sword. Now, go to the corruption and craft an epic weapon: the nights edge. This will help like crazy in early hard mode. Also, a shadow key from the dungeon can open shadow chests in the underworld. These can hold good early hard mode weapons like dark lances. Now pan the world. Puss a handgun if you have one, as ranged works well on it. However, first use a dark lance or so on the hungry. Don't kill them all at once, do it gradually, as they are almost healing potions. Unless,that is, the wof has so many even it can't see, in which case kiiiiiiiiill! I used a handgun to kill it. Aim for the eyes, as they have no defense. Grab the pan hammer and smash three demon altars to get one of each hard mode ore patch spawned in, but beware, as it spawns in a block of crimestone, ebonstone or pearlstone into the world.
