Wooden Crate

The Wooden Crate is the lowest tier of crate, having the least value if sold directly. Like other crates, you must get them by going fishing. While they nominally offer the least valuable rewards, this is the only crate tier which drops ores. As such, they are one of the few sources for "alternate" ores, and the only source for "alternate" Hardmode ores.

Trivia

 * Wooden Crates are able to drop rare items from Surface and Underground Wooden Chests, making those items able to be replenished. However, none of the early-game weapons, such as the Blowpipe or the Wooden Boomerang, can be obtained from Wooden Crates.
