Talk:Purification Powder

Does anybody know how much corruption is removed?
 * For all i have noticed, a 5x6-7 area the way you're facing is changed. If we would include tips etc on pages, then purification powder is great for getting to shadow orbs easier while still being early in game, since then you don't need End-Game pick-axe, and you only need a few powders to get to the orb. -Chicunsu
 * Purification Powder requires a Dryad which only comes when you've defeated a boss. Dynamite is purchaseable from the Demolitionist whose only requirement is that you have an explosive on you. Given that finding a bomb in a pot underground is far easier than defeating a boss in the early game and dynamite can blow up ebonstone I'd say that using Purification Powder to get to shadow orbs faster is rather like going around your elbow to get to your thumb.
