Titanium Ore

Titanium Ore is a Hardmode ore which can possibly replace Adamantite in a given world and is functionally the same. Titanium, like all Hardmode ores, is generated upon destruction of an Altar with a Pwnhammer or higher. Like Adamantite, a Mythril Drill/Orichalcum Drill (or their pickaxe equivalents) with 150% Pickaxe power or better is required to mine it. On the, it can also be mined with a Palladium Drill.

Titanium Ore, as well as Titanium Bars, can also be obtained by opening Crates, eliminating the need for a higher-tier pickaxe.

Tips

 * Before 1.4.1, in Journey Mode it was more cost effective to duplicate the ore rather than the bar as the ore takes 100 research and the bar takes 25, however it takes 5 ore to make one bar, therefore researching 25 bars used to require 125 ore.
 * It is beneficial to use Spelunker Potions and look for Titanium near the bottom of the world.

Trivia

 * is a real metal. Its legendary reputation for durability is more based on its inert nature and corrosion resistance rather than its strength; in reality, titanium is not stronger than steel, though it is lighter and far more corrosion-resistant than steel.
 * Palladium, Cobalt, and Titanium are the only Hardmode ores named after real metals, Titanium being the highest-tiered.
