Talk:Depth Meter

Copper/Silver/Gold bar navboxes
This is bugging me for some reason. Does Depth Meter belong in the Copper/Silver/Gold navboxes? Would it be appropriate in just Gold, as Gold is its highest-value component? If it's not included in these navboxes, would that be weird, seeing as every other item that can be crafted with those ores is listed? Vissith 20:14, 25 May 2011 (UTC)
 * I agree, and took care of it. --Ferretwings (talk) 15:21, 10 March 2016 (UTC)

Redundant (1.2)
The depth meter cannot be crafted in 1.2. AskaLangly (talk) 08:09, 2 October 2013 (UTC)

They are still in the game, a cave bat dropped one for me. --Keilden (talk) 09:45, 2 October 2013 (UTC)

I also got 2 just now while killing cave bats. Ayamaori (talk) 09:52, 2 October 2013 (UTC)

Terraria Version 1.1.2
How is the Depth Meter obtained in the 1.1.2 version of Terraria(pre-recent updates)? --Matthew Carter (talk) 13:36, 10 November 2013 (UTC)

Crafting
Can you craft it in the mobile version?MinecraftPhotos4U (talk) 13:54, 25 March 2015 (UTC)
 * You cannot craft it anymore. Please have an admin remove crafting Depth Meter. BogJuan96678 (talk) 16:43, 12 October 2018 (UTC)
 * The page shows it is only craftable in the Old-gen Console version, not the Mobile version. Also, this is a three and a half year old post, so it is hardly relevant anymore. – ReedemtheD3ad!  ( talk ) 18:52, 13 October 2018 (UTC)

1.3
Not sure if it's intentional or not, but now seems to display depth when item is in inventory but not equipped to accessory slot
 * It is intentional.  Chrisf1020  (talk)  08:03, 1 July 2015 (UTC)

Drop percentage
Has anyone had this item drop off a bat in 1.3? I have killed over 500 of them, and I still haven't found one. I got one to drop in 1.2, but have yet to get one in 1.3

Yes, I just got one from a bat. I'm running the Mac beta, whatever version is current on 8/3/2015 --45.37.115.13 18:13, 3 August 2015 (UTC)

Welp, this is embarrasing.. How do I use the Depth Meter on mobile? I tried equipping it but it won't show anything. Rob4sian (talk) 23:50, 23 January 2016 (UTC)

Additional Source
I just had one drop from a jungle bat. I don't know what the drop rate is. (found this in the abuse log - Ferretwings)

Ice Bats
The page for Ice Bat list the Depth Meter as a drop but it is not listed in this article. --5.102.207.62 12:58, 21 June 2018 (UTC)

1.4 Xbox obtaining method
I have found myself unable to get the depth meter in 1.4. I have killed many bats, but none have dropped it. I can't craft it, as I am on XBOX One.
 * Sounds like you just have bad luck. Eventually you would get it, but in theory you could just never get it if you have absurd luck. It is a low drop rate though. --AmsterWikis (talk) 15:59, 17 June 2022 (UTC)
