Talk:Pirate Map

Two bat statues, two bunny statues, 8 spikyball traps, and a 1-second timer hooked up in the Ocean biome. I'm up to my eyeballs in banners, Chain Knives and Depth meters after an hour or two of this, but not a single Pirate Map has dropped. Was the statue-spawn method patched out?


 * I assume it was patched out when they patched out statue mobs dropping other hardmode summoning items, like the mechanical items. You can probably still do it using the same method used to farm dungeon keys, which is to set up a meteor farm, whilst equipped with the Turtle Armor and standing in honey.--175.144.191.23 11:10, 18 October 2013 (UTC)

Using a pirate map during a solar eclipse prevents the eclipse mobs from spawning until the pirate invasion has been defeated. Waiting for a blood moon to test it there too, though I expect it will be the same.--LyricalDragon (talk) 17:37, 22 October 2013 (UTC)
