Resistant Blocks
Can we clarify what is meant by resistant blocks? Are the blocks merely resistant, i.e. they will be converted eventually, just at a slower pace, or are they actually immune to being corrupted? - Spinfx 04:29, 8 December 2011 (UTC)

The entire world is changed?
I'm very hesitant to summon the WoF because it seems the entire world will change into hallow and corruption. Is this correct? No more forests, Jungles, deserts? This seems so lame... so it can't be right. I wanted to ask folks how much of your world was changed to Hallow/Corruption.


 * Firstly, the change is gradual, not immediate. You gain one Hallow biome somewhere, and the corruption and Hallow biomes will start spreading through stone and sand as well as grass.  Next, all creatures that occur in woods also occur in Hallowed woods.  Deserts will gradually become either Hallowed deserts or Corrupt deserts.  The jungle will probably be preserved - the Corruption can take it over, but the Hallow will not, so make sure you spread Hallow around its edges.  The Dungeon and Underworld remain unaffected, and floating island are safe.  All in all, yes, you lose a bit when you go to hardmode, and it's probably best to keep a pre-hardmode copy of your favorite world, but you gain far more than you lose.  --24.208.165.252 19:48, 11 December 2011 (UTC)
