The wiki says to get the destroyer low, and then wait for it to pop up barely before shooting.  Souls don't care for gravity, apparently, and they can get stuck in the air or underground.

So, have we met that werewolf thing from one of the pictures where the fairy was first shown? If so, what is it?

I would make a wyvern highway but I feel it's unfair and more importantly I am too lazy to make something that I don't like looking at.

And yes! I just saw them on a friend's server. They only come out during the full moon.

Heheh... Carpet-bombing with holy water is too much fun to pass up, even if it does screw with that nice 5%/15% balance I had set up. Time to kill the last Skeletron Prime I should need to craft everything requiring Souls of Might, then just about 6 Twins at their minimum droprate to finish the last of the boss souls. After that, nothing to do but farm mimics until I get the cross and cloak.  :-\


Welp. Got a Red Hat when my clothier got killed, just crafted the Hamdrax, Gungnir, and Neptune's Shell (which turns you into more Argonian, less stereotypical merperson). Just need to farm the Twins a bit, and I can stop playing. I guess tomorrow would work; no finals until Tuesday, thankfully.

Ahahahaha.  Souls of Night are so easy to farm.

You need will need the following supplies:
1 flail, any quality.
Armor, quality based on flail.  Shadow is good enough with a Blue Moon.
A deep corruption zone.
Worm food.  Plan on 1 for every 5 souls you need, but you'll be pleasantly surprised.
A grappling hook.

Step one: Grapple yourself to the ground.
Step two: Summon the Eater of Worlds.
Step three: Hold attack while aiming at feet, the flail should rest at the same spot as your hitbox.
Step four: Profit!!!

Seriously, you owe it to yourself to try this at least once.

How are you app making money? I've been farming EoW and selling the ore and scales but it's a pain in the arse to get the rotten chunks. Any suggestions? Pre-wall, by the way.

I've got a Hallow/Corruption underground split in half by my hellevator, and I've gotten Soul of Light drops from Corruption mobs that crossed sides and vice-versa, so I'd assume so. Wait, so does each body segment of the EoW act as a mob in terms of Soul drop as well? Because if so, DAYUM, I need to get in on that.

Well, since I'm post wall and with good enough equipment to solo the bosses easily, I usually make a profit of 6-20 gold per ingame night, plus a number of Greater health pots. Wyverns are a good source of cash as well, as they drop gold coins. If you want something easy for prewall to farm, Meteor Heads are common, override other spawns, weak, slow, and have fairly good cash drops. Or, if you wanted to be a dirty cheater, you could get an inv editor and give yourself a few hundred plat, though I wouldn't trust a third party program to be mucking about with the save file for my main character.

Moon Charm = Werewolf on full moon
I believe you can fight them too on a full moon, just dunno what their spawn is.

Go to corruption
Dig out ~30 tiles wide, 4 deep
Place a nice floor (gold bricks and gold back wall)
Place a roof 4 tiles above so that your head scrapes against the glorious gold
One one side, place ~4 poison dart launchers facing inwards (ie, place them on the left edge facing to the right)
3 second timer, right click to activate without using a switch
Standing in the middle and watch Eaters come hover over you and get shot, dropping loot right on you!

For extra benefit, go to nearby chasms and stuff them with wooden walkways.  Eaters have a bad way of getting stuck on the walls, but they can only go one way through platforms so you can funnel them upwards rather easily.  Beware of ebonstone overhanging the chasms, as they get stuck underneath these overhangs.

This area makes a pretty fair place to fight EoW as well, just turn off the darts and stand on the killzone.  For that matter, I don't know if darts will hurt EoW or not...

ALSO:
I'm having trouble with the wall and have Hamachi.  Anyone wanna pop in and waste 'em with me?  PM me (so I get the email ding quickly).

And get some nice skulls.  Keep crafting and get one that offers major defense, or +mana, or whatever!

Loool. Summon Wall o' Flesh. Grossly underestimate how underpowered you are. End stuck up in a wall, while the Wall rapes me. I die. Next Guide appears. Went down to hell. Threw voodoo doll, no WoF appears. Discover that WoF is a bit buggy. Scream at the top of your lungs while pounding the keyboard. Delete world. Start anew. Facepalm.

Really now, I got bugged where the WoF doesn't appear at all, after I died. Sucks trying to build Yet Another Hellevator.

Regarding wyverns, I think my favorite way of fighting them is simply involves simply a cobalt repeater, hellfire arrows, and a couple of gravitation potions. Might need some practice first, but fighting them this way is ridiculously fun.

Wyverns are easy, all you need is a sky bridge, a ranged weapon of some sort, rocket boots or better and cloud in a ballon. Then you simply run across the bridge shooting, when the wyverns about to attack double jump and boost over him whilst continuing to shoot, if timed correctly you won't get hit.

If you were on a large world, the WoF might have just not reached the end yet. It's happened a couple times to me when I went down too fast. Shouldn't delete a world too fast

So after killing the WoF on a world, I tried to use a Suspicious Looking Eye to farm the Cthulu of Eye. But nothing happened. later on i tried to use a Mechanical Worm, and nothing happened? Am I bugged or do I need to do something else?
