Lihzahrd



The Lihzahrd (also known as the Jungle Temple) is the Jungle's hardmode dungeon. It is a small (at least compared to the normal dungeon) structure that resembles a Mayan pyramid, with winding corridors down to a boss room at the bottom. The boss room contains a Lihzahrd Altar, which can be used to summon the Golem with Lihzahrd Power Cells.

In order to access the dungeon one must first defeat Plantera to get the Temple Key which will let you into the lihzahrd temple.

Throughout the temple are a number of traps, including Flame Traps, Spear Traps, Spiked Ball Traps, Super Dart Traps and Wooden Spikes. They are activated by Lihzahrd Pressure Plates, which only respond to players.

Tips

 * Since the 1.2.1.2 update, the Rod of Discord can no longer be used to teleport into the temple without the door being opened first.
 * You need the Picksaw (which has a chance to be dropped by the Temple boss, the Golem) to mine Lihzahrd bricks.
 * One effective way of avoiding the traps in the Temple is to hold a wire related item (wire-cutter, wrench, dart traps, pressure plates, or any trap from inside the temple works) to see where the pressure plates are. This is extremely useful for ranged and magic players who don't have enough defense to survive the traps.
 * The temple will either be in the far right, left, or center of your underground jungle.
 * The temple usually spawns in areas near the lava level in the underground jungle.
 * Since none of the enemies in the temple (except Golem's lasers) can pass through walls, setting up lava afk farms in the temple is simple.

Trivia

 * The name Lihzahrd is a misspelling of the word "lizard". The fact that lizards are the primary enemies in the temple is not a coincidence.
