Talk:Steampunker

Couldn't both the mechanic and the steampunker have had their memories of building the cyborg either erased or just have lost them? I think that is the most likely solution for the plothole 98.38.9.77 00:21, 8 January 2021 (UTC)

Jetpack
I have wings and spectre boots (well, now it's lightning boots) pretty much permanently in accessories and jetpack still flashes on and off in steampunker's trade list. Not the cause, at least, not the ONLY cause. Barhandar (talk) 10:27, 6 October 2013 (UTC)

Purple/Red solution
Can anyone confirm if she will sell them only when living in a Crimson/Corruption biome? And also if it could just be a mini artificial biome? Thanks


 * Doesn't need to be in those biomes at all, just a world that is registered as a crimson or corruption biome during a blood moon. She can sell them to you even in Hallow. 86.28.186.239 16:18, 29 October 2013 (UTC)


 * In addition, can anyone discern what conditions determine which solution she sells in a world with both the corruption and crimson, now that you can buy seeds for the other biome from the Dryad in a graveyard, as well as using special world seeds to have both biomes?

 * As mentioned above, the world evil is the determining factor. If the world was generated with Corruption, then the Steampunker will never sell Red Solution, even if you create an artificial Crimson. As for drunk worlds, the main world evil switches each dawn, so she will sell Purple Solution one day and Red Solution the next day. --Rye Greenwood (talk) 19:12, 28 October 2020 (UTC)


 * Thanks for the clarification. Although that makes "Blood Moon or Solar Eclipse when the world has Corruption."/"Blood Moon or Solar Eclipse when the world has Crimson." a bit misleading in the article. I'll change it to be more in-line with the rest of the table as "During Blood Moon or Solar Eclipse in Crimson/Corruption worlds." Mrqsandas (talk) 02:56, 3 November 2020 (UTC)

Bezoar and Steampunker
What is with this bug/anomaly being mentioned? At this point, I'm 99.99999999999999% sure it's a troll edit. Can anyone provide a reliable source to this? In the meantime, removing from their respective pages until proven otherwise. 173.228.18.15 22:42, 5 November 2013 (UTC)

Name references
The names Leila seems to be a reference to Princess Leia in Star Wars, Minerva is an reference to Minerva McGongall in Harry Potter, Selina a reference to Selina Beauguard from Percy Jackson, and Lilly a reference to Lilly Potter from Harry Potter. Also, Phoebe is a reference to one on Mars's moons. 180.172.32.248 08:02, 24 March 2016 (UTC)


 * Alternately, those are all relatively common women's names. Gearzein (talk) 12:28, 24 March 2016 (UTC)

Needs update for 1.3.1

Spawn Conditions
In my world, I only beat The Destroyer and the Steampunk spawned, is the wiki wrong 104.138.167.233 02:44, 31 May 2016 (UTC)


 * The wiki says that you only have to defeat at least ONE of the mechanical bosses. It is not wrong. OSX Plays (talk) 17:59, 19 December 2016 (UTC)


 * You can even beat a mechanical boss in pre-Hardmode to get her to spawn. (note: observed in 1.3.5 equivalent on Switch). Appears she won't sell Cogs, then, though. Jetpack, logic gates, lamps, steampunk outfit, hook, clentaminator, solution, blend-o-matic, cloning vat, boiler…but no cogs, even with boiler held in inventory. (King Slime, Queen Bee, Eye and Brain of Cthulhu, Skeletron all dead.)71.15.200.122 04:53, 21 July 2020 (UTC)

Static hook
Ok, the website says that the steampunker sells the static hook for 50 gold, always available. Now I play on Nintendo switch, and it’s not there, is this some sort of bug preventing the hook from selling? Ninjaboy3827 (talk) 14:34, 27 July 2019 (UTC)


 * The is currently one Desktop content update behind the  – while the current Console version is equivalent to Desktop 1.3.1, Switch is only equivalent to Desktop 1.3.0.7. We are not splitting Console and Switch and treating them as entirely different versions for now, because we hope for Switch to quickly catch up and receive updates at the same time as Console. If such a version parity between Console and Switch becomes less likely, we will split the two. --Rye Greenwood (talk) 15:57, 27 July 2019 (UTC)
