Talk:Guide

PS3 bug solution
The crafting bug on the PS3 edition (where the guide will help himself to your supplies without asking!) will only happen when the guide is near a crafting station. My guide now lives in the bathroom: a toilet and bath make the room count as valid housing, but do not allow accidental crafts of any kind.

Rebirth
I hate him. He just uses a room in my house with no-reason. Sad, that I can't kill him. Or I can? With LAVA!!!--Igor09 15:03, 23 May 2011 (UTC) Once you kill the guide, is there a way to get him back? Just wondering... 68.225.247.97 23:08, 2 June 2011 (UTC)

Yes there is, he moves back in just like any other NPC. -Felix20 23:26, 2 June 2011 (UTC)

But if he died, will he come back if you do not have a home or do you need to build a house for him?Tylamimo (talk) 09:59, 27 October 2014 (UTC)

The Guide is Your friend.
And mine too! In single player, if you feel lonely, just be friends with the guide because he'll get lonely too! You see, if you keep hating him, he won't have any friends because nobody wants to be his friend. That makes me sad when he has no friends or buddies. What if everybody hated you? You would feel very sad, right? Well, thats just how the Guide will feel if you don't be his friend! Befriend him today! Fun Friend 16:41, 16 June 2011 (UTC)

My Guide is named Steve
Would you consider this a poke at Minecraft or just a random name? Leaning toward the latter, but I thought it worth mentioning. --Theothersteve7 15:42, 6 December 2011 (UTC)

Guide Tips
Should we add the requirements for certain tips to show up like we do with quotes, or is that unnecessary? --Icke 20:27, 9 December 2011 (UTC)

I think that would be good, since right now, it just looks like a huge wall of text. Vegeta 03:06, 20 December 2011 (UTC)

Twilight refrence?
The anomaly stating that he sparkles in daylight COULD be a possible refrence to Twilight. Not that i like the series at all.

Spelling Fix
It appears that the spelling error, "wil" instead of "will", has been fixed since it has been written here.
 * Fixed. Also feel free to fix any mistakes yourself if you see any. --Icke 11:21, 2 December 2012 (UTC)

Guide origin theory
What if: The guide is what becomes of a player when they reach EXTREME endgame. After the player conquers everything the world has to offer, they get reset to a new world to help a brave hero start his own adventure. Kind of a full circle path, the guide knows everything and can deal with this new player's crap because he's been through it all before. Of course, then sometimes the guide would have to be female. 75.25.124.151 07:17, 15 November 2013 (UTC)
 * This is not a forum. pleae to not treat is as such, It is a rule. just because everyone else breaks a rule doesn't mean it will not be enforced. Further more, for the love of Andrew Spinks the almighty, don't put speculation here.205.211.96.100 16:15, 19 December 2013 (UTC)

Glitch?
I built a house, and let the guide (named Dylan) move in. At one point, when it turned night, he started just randomly changing direction, opening and closing doors, and at one point, let 3 zombies and a Demon Eye into the house. Is this a known bug?

New quote?
So I was randomly playing terraria, and i got this message I don't know the conditions to get this (though i think having the tavernkeep in town is one), so can someone confirm this? (This is a vanilla copy of terraria)Brendan783 (talk) 04:51, 27 November 2016 (UTC)


 * I'm going to change it back to a regular jpeg file to enlarge it, so here goes.

I believe the quote refers to the Tavernkeep with the name Bill, and the Old One's Army. Perhaps a little word of advice on how to get some advice which you're asking advice for? Apart from that, I believe this quote is legitimate and I or you can add it to the page. LordofEditing (talk) 07:05, 27 November 2016 (UTC)


 * I checked the code, it's there. I just added it to the page. "Bill" does refer to the Tavernkeep. Equazcion  ( talk ) 10:47, 27 Nov 2016 (UTC)

Is this a good idea, or am I just a total dirtbag?
Guide banner. If you kill him 50 times, you'll get a Guide banner. I'm a horrible person for suggesting this, but I think it would be really stupid, maybe enough so to be funny. 172.249.169.192 03:01, 17 March 2020 (UTC)
