The '''Mechanical Worm''' is used to summon [[The Destroyer]] (a harder version of the [[Eater of Worlds]]). It can only be used at night; attempting to use it during the day will do nothing and will not consume the item. Unlike [[Worm Food]], it ''can'' be used outside of the [[Corruption]]. It can be crafted at a [[Mythril Anvil]]. Using another Mechanical Worm while [[The Destroyer]] is already spawned will result in instant death or in rare occasions nothing will happen. It can also be used in a world without hardmode activated.

'''Goldfish''' are benign background characters that cannot harm the player, similar to [[Bunnies]]. They have only 5 health, and can be damaged by other mobs, which always result in their instant death. Dead Goldfish drop the [[Goldfish item]], a crafting material.

During a [[Blood Moon]], or when hit with [[Vile Powder]], Goldfish turn into [[Corrupt Goldfish]], which have more health and do attack players. These do not drop the [[Goldfish item]].

* The [[Fish Statue]] can be used to farm the Goldfish drop. [[Dart Trap]]s or [[Lava]] can be used to kill the Goldfish as they spawn.
 
* Another farming method is to find a water body where Goldfish spawn, and [[Corrupt Goldfish|corrupt]] one of them with [[Vile Powder]]. Further spawned Goldfish will be killed by the corrupt one, leaving behind the Goldfish item. The Corrupt Goldfish will likely despawn when off-screen for too long, and new Goldfish will not spawn while the entire water body is on-screen; keeping an area of the water off-screen may allow new fish to spawn while keeping the Corrupt one around.

    The Mechanical Worm is used to summon The Destroyer (a harder version of the Eater of Worlds). It can only be used at night; attempting to use it during the day will do nothing and will not consume the item. Unlike Worm Food, it can be used outside of the Corruption. It can be crafted at a Mythril Anvil. Using another Mechanical Worm while The Destroyer is already spawned will result in instant death or in rare occasions nothing will happen. It can also be used in a world without hardmode activated.
