Talk:Plantera

Would very much appreciate the Plantera's Pod's ID, and possibly it's spawning conditions. Also, the strategy to pull Plantera up to the surface is doable, but getting too far away up with the rope makes the boss despawn. -- Are Plantera's Hooks actually destroyable/killable? I see them having a health/defense listing of 4000/24 respectively on this page, but hovering the mouse cursor over them (in-game) doesn't bring up any numbers like it does with almost every other enemy in the game.
 * I do not believe they are. The game has health and armor values for them, but I don't think it actually uses them. --GauHelldragon2 (talk) 17:23, 10 October 2013 (UTC)

--- Plantera despawns if you quickly move to the surface. It should probably be added as a bug. Not sure how to do this, so I will let someone else. --Captn

Multiple bulbs can spawn at the same time on a large world. I've found 3 within a fairly close proximity of one another. 77.173.25.253 09:30, 13 October 2013 (UTC)

I'd like to contribute that the "Plantera's Tentacle"s (The tongue like things as this page puts it) have 1000 hp each 24.246.152.183 22:05, 9 November 2013 (UTC)

first time hardest/ nerved in 1.2.4?
is there anything in the script/AI/stats that would make her harder when not killed yet on a world/ or was she made harder in 1.2.4?

because when 1.2.4 came out i made a new world, and i keep dying on her, while whit the exsact same gear ( unreal stygner, hoverboard, forstspak boots, lava wadders, charm of myths and ankh shield, all whit either menacing or warding ) i was able to farm her on my 1.2.3 world

Nevermind, i managed to blast her apart whit my stygner this time, which was, according to 52 temple keys, 3 unlocked lizhards and 5 crafted dungeon keys, was my 60th plantera kill thought more advise could of course never hurt for those people who are preparing for their 1st plantera kill rather then their 60th, thee isnt much left of the stretegy guide for her so........ ,i did what i coud there by adding the Stynger to list of weapons that can be used to farm her, but i have no idea what guidelines to add for area preparation as i've only made 3 boss arenas so far, one golem grinder in the lizhard, one spiky ball trap grinder to solopumpkin and frost moons, and one asphalt skybridge reinforced whit campfires+hearth lanters, and extended whit slope to ocean for fighting duke fishron. so i would thanks you in advace if you ( whoever reads this ) helped improving the guide to

Plantera affects spreading speed?
Someone recently added to the corruption, crimson, and hallow pages that killing Plantera slows down the spread of these biomes to 1/3 their original speed. Is this true? It seems unlikely to me. -Xolroc (talk) 12:56, 17 June 2014 (UTC)
 * This is true, it was in the 1.2.0.3 patch notes. --0icke0 (talk) 09:20, 18 June 2014 (UTC)

I can't damage the hooks!
Try as I might, all my attacks pass RIGHT THROUGH the hook claw things....they're immune to damage as far as I can tell. - 68.117.21.124 04:41, 31 July 2014 (UTC)

plantera glitch
just killed plantera and was about to go by the auto hammer thing from truffle when he got killed by a blck ghost thing ( never cared to look at the name) and now truffle wont respond and i will be damned if i have to do all that again. is there something you can do so he will spawn back or am i sol. email me with any answers make subject terraria [email address removed] Anawilliams (talk) 08:39, 3 August 2014 (UTC)
 * Once you kill Plantera, a "switch" is set permanently for your world. You shouldn't need to kill it again. It's possible you just have to wait a little while until the Truffle re-spawns. NPCs like the Truffle usually re-spawn the following day after being killed. Make sure its House is still alright, and that there's enough Mushroom Biome in the area. PS. I removed your email address -- it's not a great idea to post that stuff here.  Equazcion ( talk ) 12:43, 3 Aug 2014 (UTC)

Thorn Hook
The Thorn Hook is missing from Plantera's drop table. I would add it, but I don't know the drop percentage or how to get that information. --24.9.9.88 19:05, 16 July 2015 (UTC)

Plantera trophy
The Plantera Trophy is missing from the drop table and I don't know the drop percentage nor how to get it. --78.228.2.138 19:25, 18 August 2015 (UTC)

Grenade Launcher drop on first Plantera kill?
"When Plantera is defeated for the first time, it will always drop a Grenade Launcher with Rocket I for ammo, as well as the Temple Key."

I didn't get the Grenade Launcher on first kill. Expert mode, mediumcore.
 * Technically no boss drops any of their normal loot on expert mode; all of it is handled through treasure bags, which have different drop rates. The bag's drop table on Treasure Bag indicates that it isn't guaranteed to have a grenade launcher inside, but the same 16.7% chance all other Plantera weapons have. Whether the incongruity between normal drops and bag contents is intentional or a bug is unknown, but those rates are noted on the wiki. Gearzein (talk) 01:52, 12 December 2015 (UTC)

The Zapinator
About a week ago, I added a piece of info to the Trivia secion that stated Plantera had a chance to drop a Zapinator on the 3DS version. A bit later, I saw that someone put basically the same thing in the Notes section. First of all, would someone please do something about it? I know I can't remove it because I'm not a moderator, but I don't think it makes sense to have the same thing on the page twice. Secondly, if anyone knows what the drop rate is for the Zapinator, please add it. I don't know exactly what it is, but it's fairly common. I'd say it's a 1/7, but again I don't want want to put anything untrue on the page. PlanteraBlade (talk) 04:20, 18 February 2016 (UTC)
 * There are no moderators on the wiki, and you don't have to be an admin to make changes to a page. If you could add it, you could just as easily remove it.
 * That said, there's no indication that the Zapinator is deliberately obtainable. Until proven otherwise, it's being treated as a bug. Before we can just accept as fact that a dev-only testing item removed from all other versions of the game is intentionally dropped by a boss with no discernible relation to it, someone working on the 3DS version would need to confirm that it's meant to happen and won't be patched out.
