The '''Mechanic''' is an [[NPC]] who sells various [[Mechanism]]s, as well as [[Wire Cutter]]s and [[Wrench]]es, allowing the player to build wired devices like [[Trap]]s and [[Guide:Wiring#Engines|critter engines]].
 
   
  +
<!-------------------- CRAFTING STATION -------------------->
The Mechanic must be saved from the [[Dungeon]] after killing [[Skeletron]]. She will randomly spawn near the player while they're exploring. Talking to her in this state will free her, and she will wander the area until she gets killed or until the player moves far enough from her. After that, she will move into an available house like any normal [[NPC]]. If the Mechanic is killed, she will respawn if there is a house for her, rather than needing to be saved again (the same with the [[Stylist]], [[Goblin Tinkerer]], and [[Wizard]]). A [[Lifeform Analyzer]] can detect her while trapped in the Dungeon, showing "Bound Mechanic" when she is nearby.

* There appears to be conflict between the Mechanic and [[Nurse]] during a Blood Moon. When both are present, they have various hostile sayings that replace their standard quotes. During this time, the [[Merchant]] has a chance of saying, "Oh, great. I can hear [name of Mechanic] and [name of Nurse] arguing from here." These, along with her Blood Moon quotes, could be PMS jokes.

* The Mechanic has a crush on the [[Goblin Tinkerer]], as referenced by her quotes, and, also referenced by some of the Goblin Tinkerer's quotes, he has a crush right back.
 
  +

* Apparently, the [[Clothier]] was the one who tied up and left the Mechanic in the Dungeon, but he only vaguely remembers, as revealed in one of his quotes when the Mechanic is ''not'' present. Surprisingly, the Mechanic herself never mentions the Clothier doing anything to her.

Quick Answers

What items does the Mechanic NPC sell in Terraria? toggle section
The Mechanic NPC in Terraria sells various mechanisms, including Wire Cutters and Wrenches. These items allow players to construct and activate wired devices such as traps and critter engines. During Hardmode, if the Angler is present, she also sells the Mechanic's Rod, but only during the night of a waning crescent moon.
Provided by: Fandom
Where can the Mechanic be found in Terraria? toggle section
In Terraria, the Mechanic can be found in the Dungeon in the Cavern layer or below after killing Skeletron. She spawns randomly as the stationary Bound Mechanic. Once you talk to her in this state, she will be freed and will respawn as long as a vacant house is available, even if she is killed.
Provided by: Fandom
What conditions must be met for the Mechanic to spawn in Terraria? toggle section
In Terraria, the Mechanic can be found in the Dungeon after defeating Skeletron. Once found and released, the Mechanic can be housed in the underground Snow biome with the Tinkerer, without any penalty, for maximum NPC happiness.
Provided by: Community
What happens when you talk to the Bound Mechanic in Terraria? toggle section
In Terraria, when you talk to the Bound Mechanic, she is freed from her state. After this, as long as there is a vacant house available, she will respawn, even if she is killed. The Mechanic is a useful NPC who sells various mechanisms, including Wire Cutters and Wrenches, which allow players to construct and activate wired devices like traps and critter engines.
Provided by: Fandom
What is the role of the Mechanic in Terraria? toggle section
In Terraria, the Mechanic is a non-player character (NPC) who sells various mechanisms, as well as Wire Cutters and Wrenches. This allows players to construct and activate wired devices like traps and critter engines. The Mechanic can be found in the Dungeon in the Cavern layer or below after killing Skeletron. She also sells Teleporters, even in pre-Hardmode, and Pixel Boxes. Her role is essentially to provide players with the tools and items necessary for engineering and constructing complex devices in the game.

Usage

Place the following at the end of a page:

  • {{Master Template Furniture}}

The default behavior is for the entire template to remain collapsed.

To show all sub-sections in collapsed form, use this:

{{Master Template Furniture
 | show-main = yes
}}

To cause one or more sub-sections to appear expanded by default, add one of the following ("show-main = yes" must also be set) :

  • | show-craft = yes
  • | show-light = yes
  • | show-storage = yes
  • | show-other = yes

For example, to show the "crafting stations" section expanded, use this:

{{Master Template Furniture
 | show-main  = yes
 | show-craft = yes
}}
