They usually have Shadow Orbs at the bottom but you won't be able to reach them until later the game.matthewd49 said:

cool, thanks a lot guys. this game is awesome, money well spent.
So I spent 6 hours today smashing Shadow Orbs and killing worms trying to find one of these:

...just because they're rare, but I didn't have any luck at all
Finally one of my friends just gave me one in multiplayer, but yeah, apparently they're so rare I didn't even know they existed until yesterday.
I really can't wait for a new content update. This is seriously the most engrossing thing I've played in months.

I didn't realize they were rare. I actually got one in like the first orb I smashed. I think the only item I don't have is Rocket Boots still.
Personally, when I was about at the same point, I looked for my underground jungle and farmed a Thorn Chakrum and Blade of Grass. I only got one piece of Cobalt armor, but found more than enough gold to make the corresponding armor, and that was perfect for handling the eater.vareon said:
Hornets are surprisingly easy to trap into boxes and kill with impunity.

Get a gold pickaxe, then hopefully by then the demolitionist will have moved in. Buy a stick of dynamite (or 2) and go blast your way to a shadow orb, then wait until a meteor falls and start making meteor stuff (I'd go with a phaseblade first so you can skip from Gold to Nightmare pickaxe)
At this point you can make the game a lot easier for yourself by raiding other worlds and breaking 1 orb to get more/faster meteor ore, which is what I did, but you can pretty much do it in whatever order you want once you start upgrading your armor/weapons past gold.

Simplest obsidian farm I've found.
Though if you need large quantities, connecting a lake to a body of lava is still the quickest route.

Whoopie cushions are rare? I got one right at the beginning..
Then again I just finally found a cloud in a bottle which everyone else seemed to find much earlier than me. Instead I ended up with like 4 mirrors.

Yeah that one was a bit unfortunate. It was interesting though having an event damage what I had built.
I haven't played the game in awhile now because I've been having some internet issues on Windows, but once I get that sorted out I'll head back in. (I need to try out my new copy of Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory as well!)

I am pretty much convinced that Sunfury (fiery ball of hurt) is the best weapon in the game. Bone serpents and the Eater of Worlds both completely melt to it, and so does everything else, really. The fact that it has ZERO cooldown when the ball hits the ground/wall and is ready for instant deployment again after a fast retract... is completely nuts! I don't even carry a sword anymore.
I got mine right after several unfortunate encounters with Bone Serpents messing with my mining. My revenge is now complete.

yeah it is. my duplicators are right there at the top. i just don't have a safety cache. so if i mess up i just re-grab from the lava/water i have in there already.
Weird experience with the water physics just now. Created a new map just to mess around with and found this BIIIIIIIIG deep cave under a lake which was already full of water... So I decide "let's flood hell again " and off I go making my way down when roughly 3/4 of the way on a medium (i think) map is under water when I finally get there. So I go down start farming a bit of ore and killing some imps thinking it's taking forever and it doesn't necessarily seem to be filling very fast now that it's hit a certain point and I tele back up and I swear the water level at the top hasn't really dropped at all. I leave it for like 10 minutes and while I can see the water falling it doesn't seem to be changing much.
I go back up and decide to widen the tunnel along the way, looks good at first water is flowing a lot better go a bit further up and widen some more and BAM all water disappears and is suddenly at the bottom lol. Never had that happen before was quite a surprise but I was happy to have hell finally flooded with a real lake
Here's a pic of the water I took when I was starting to think it was a bit ridiculous how much water I was encountering. Nearly at the bottom. Weird to think that like 80% of it just vanished instantly into hell with just a liiiiiiittle bit more space to drain through.

I would save your demonite and make a pickaxe first thing, since that's now required to mine hellstone and Obsidian. You can definitely survive with a phaseblade (made with meteor bars) until you move on to Molten Stuff or until you get a Muramasa, so I'd probably go ahead and try to make a Nightmare pickaxe with the demonite as soon as possible so you can mine enough Obsidian to make a skull and survive the underworld.
Once you've got enough ore for your weapons/pickaxe it probably doesn't matter too much what kind of armor you go with, personally I mined a bunch of meteors and stayed with meteor armor, but you can just as easily farm the jungle for cobalt, or try your luck with eater of worlds so you can get some nightmare stuff, or just deal with the deaths in silver/gold until you have enough hellstone ore to make molten armor.
Vitet said:My glowing mushrooms farm below my house
Wow I'm surprised you had natural daylight so close to the world's 'above/below' ground cutoff. All of my 10 worlds or so I have generated have had all the land 100-200+ feet above the actual underground layer, so I have had to dig out a pretty long tunnel down to my farm.

There's this: http://wiki.terrariaonline.com/Guide:Getting_started
Though honestly, if you've already played 3 hours and don't feel hooked- I'd have a look over the wiki, play another 3 or so, and then call it a loss for now if you're still not feeling it. Certainly the game isn't for everyone. Maybe an update will come out further along and add some structure that you would enjoy.

Yeah, I do need to get around to that, preferably with people who have played the game far more than I. I've only played SP thus far.
That wiki page has been significantly expanded since I first looked at it a few days after the game came out, thanks for posting it. I'm going to read over it again and see where I end up.
Enco said:
It's quite easy. You need only one seed per floor, mud, and be below 0ft height.
And yes, my house/spawn point was about 30-40 ft above the underground.
The tedious part was remove dirt walls to put wood walls, but it looks pretty and now I have a lot of big potions.
I was thinking on doing the same with normal grass above ground to farm normal mushrooms, but they're pretty random
EDIT: I was pretty lucky with that world (and it was my first). I have four demon altar just below the spawn point LOL
Nice. Were you going between two different OSes? Using junction on my XP laptop was the trickiest part for me to figure out, but it's totally seamless now.Des0lar said:Ok i tried the dropbox thingie and it worked in that regard, that the cursor colour changed accordingly, but now single player won't start on my second PC.
Every time I press Single Player the game crashes
EDIT: Solved! I fucked up linking the folders.
Holy god, is there no hammer in the entire game that can remove walls in one click?Vitet said:

I destroyed a few Shadow Orbs, got full Demonscale Armor and a Musket now. That, along with my Obsidian Skull really made Hell a lot more tolerable, I was able to dig deep into the ash and stop the random imp attacks to mine Hellstone. The extra armor (especially since I started wearing a normal helmet instead of the mining helmet) really helps I think. Still, the Bone Serpents are ridiculous when you're in tight quarters like that.
Also, I got a message a meteorite crashed in my world but I can't find it. I ran for an entire day/night cycle to one side of my map. I started running to the other side but skipping by all the corruption and huge shadow orb scars is really hard when I'm not taking it slow. I reached my dungeon but didn't go past that. No idea where that Meteorite is

Yeah, that's awesome, I was wondering how you got the demon altars there. I only found one demon altar and it's pretty far from my castle.Vitet said:
