Pearlwood Crate

The Pearlwood Crate is the lowest tier of crate in Hardmode, having the least value if sold directly. Like other crates, it is obtained by fishing. While a Pearlwood Crate nominally offers the least valuable rewards, it is the only crate tier which drops Hardmode ores. As such, it is the only source for "alternate" Hardmode ores. Its pre-Hardmode counterpart is the Wooden Crate.
