Quick Answers

What items does the Truffle NPC vendor sell in Terraria? toggle section

What are the requirements for the Truffle to move into a house in Terraria? toggle section
In Terraria, the Truffle, also known as the shroomite NPC, has specific requirements for the house it can move into. The house must be located in a Surface Glowing Mushroom biome, which refers to any house built above 0 elevation. This could be a Glowing Mushroom biome in Space or one near sea level. The house should also have at least 100 tiles of Glowing Mushroom biome blocks in the area around it. If there's too much Corruption or Crimson beneath the house, it may invalidate the housing. The Truffle can be relocated to a different house as long as the new house is also in a Glowing Mushroom biome. If the Truffle dies or the surface Glowing Mushroom biome is destroyed, these steps must be repeated.

How can a Surface Glowing Mushroom Biome be created in Terraria? toggle section
In Terraria, a Surface Glowing Mushroom Biome can be created by the player. This process involves placing 100 mushroom-related tiles. Once these tiles are placed, the biome background will appear, showcasing towering mushrooms. The biome reaches its full effect when it contains 160 mushroom-related tiles, at which point the sky will darken. It's important to note that this biome does not generate naturally and must be manually created by the player. The Truffle NPC, who sells mushroom-themed items, requires a house in this biome to spawn.

What is the role of Mushroom grass and Mushroom plants in creating a Glowing Mushroom biome? toggle section
Mushroom grass and Mushroom plants play a crucial role in creating a Glowing Mushroom biome in Terraria. The biome is characterized by Mushroom grass, Glowing Mushrooms, and Giant Glowing Mushrooms growing on Mud Blocks. The grass and plants in this biome emit a vibrant blue glow, making it quite distinctive. The Mushroom grass provides more blocks for the biome to spread to, accelerating the process of creating the biome. Glowing Mushrooms can grow inside the gaps formed by the Mushroom grass, contributing to the overall growth and development of the biome.

In the PC version of Terraria, when the Truffle is threatened by enemies, he defends himself by dealing damage to them. He has a maximum life of 250 and a defense of 15, which helps him withstand attacks. However, it's important to note that he is a passive NPC, meaning he won't actively seek out and attack enemies.

Quotes

  • "There's been such a huge rumor that's being spread about me, 'if you can't beat him, eat him!'"
  • "Everyone in this town feels a bit off. I woke up to the clothier chewing on my foot last night." (Only if Clothier is present)
  • "As if living underground wasn't bad enough, jerks like you come in while I'm sleeping and steal my children."
  • "You haven't seen any pigs around here have you? My brother lost his leg to one." (Possible reference to the Scaly Truffle which summons a Pigron)
  • "I tried to lick myself the other day to see what the big deal was, everything started glowing blue."
  • "Between you and me, [Dryad's name] is the only one I trust. She is the only one here who hasn't tried to eat me or use me in a potion." (Only if Dryad is present)
  • "Everytime I see the color blue, it makes me depressed and lazy."
  • "I don't know the 'Truffle Shuffle', so stop asking!" (Reference to "The Goonies" movie.)

Notes

  • Truffle can only spawn and live above ground, and cannot be moved into a house underground even if it is in a Mushroom Biome.
  • Try to build enough houses as possible before attempting a Mushroom biome home for the Truffle. If NPCs are waiting for a home, they will move in the Mushroom biome home, instead of the Truffle.
  • If you haven't defeated Plantera yet, there's an empty slot in his item inventory where the Autohammer should be. This slot is properly filled once you defeat Plantera.

Trivia

  • All of his names are types of mushroom or toadstool.
  • The "Truffle Shuffle" line is a reference to the movie "The Goonies".
  • The line "You haven't seen any pigs around here have you? My brother lost his leg to one." is a reference to truffle hogs.
