Drill Containment Unit

The Drill Containment Unit is a mount-summoning item. It summons the Drill Mount, a rideable, flying vehicle that mines blocks extremely fast via lasers. The Drill Mount is currently the fastest way to mine in Terraria. It is also the most costly craftable item in the entire game in terms of materials- the sum total of the materials required to craft it is 160 Luminite (requiring the Moon Lord to be defeated at least twice, most likely more), 720 Chlorophyte Ore, 600 Glowing Mushrooms, 20 Ectoplasm, 120 of both Hellstone and Meteorite ores, and 40 Obsidian.

Unlike other mounts, when riding in the Drill Containment Unit, you cannot use any tools or items.

All destroyable blocks including Lihzahrd Brick, Altar (Hardmode), and Shadow Orb / Crimson Hearts can be destroyed using this mount. However, any Walls will still be intact.

It allows the player to fly infinitely, which allows it to be used as transport to floating structures. However, this is not recommended, as it is quite slow moving compared to other options, most notably the UFO Mount.



Tricks

 * A yoyo can be used when riding the Drill Mount. This works when the yoyo is already in use and the player activates the mount afterwards. This can be useful for attacking enemies while flying around. However, this does mean you will be unable to mine blocks.
 * Use the stardust dragon before mounting, as it will kill most enemies around you while you mine.
