Talk:Boulder

What is this "massive damage"? How high is it?


 * I took about 150 damage from one with jungle armor on, not sure what that amounts to --Felix20 16:59, 2 December 2011 (UTC)


 * I took about 80 firts time i met one without armor at all. Second one gave me 140 damage with 7 defense. --Dart193 17:29, 2 December 2011 (UTC)
 * 15 defence, 144 damage --Dart193 19:09, 2 December 2011 (UTC)
 * I had sod-all defence when I discovered my firsts boulder (copper armor, no crystal hearts found). Originally I thought it was a new item so I eagerly dug my way towards it, only to be surprised as it practically insta-gibbed me the moment I got close. Heh. - Spinfx 09:28, 21 December 2011 (UTC)

quirk
I mined into a boulder from above by accident and it killed me something ridiculous; but the curious part is that while the boulder disappeared, the next time I passed under where it was the rock that was below it collapsed. The background wall behind where it was is a different sort than what's around it.
 * It is probably stone block which can be toggled with pressure plate. It is inactive stone block. --Dart193 14:25, 3 December 2011 (UTC)

The going-left "Bug"
I don't think that is actually a bug. After all, when a boulder is dropped from a trap it is not hit from either side, which means it should default to a side.

It is not hard to force the directions really, even when queueing boulders for a trap.

If you are on top of a rolling boulder.. is not a bug
"If you're on top of a rolling boulder you will take the damage." This is not a bug. If you want to request a new feature for being able to stand on top of enemies then go request it. A rolling boulder is an enemy NPC which naturally deals damage when you touch it. It is part of the game engine and intended to work this way.

Additionally, here is a real bug: 1. Place a boulder on the ground 2. Place a chest on top of the boulder 3. Fill the chest (?) 4. Use a pickaxe tool on the boulder 5. Say hi to your desktop for me

6. You can take it a step further and place the boulder on ice blocks to crash the server.
