12 ESSENTIAL Beginner Tips For Terraria 1.4! (2022)

Me with over 800 hours in-game : A beginner guide! I would like to watch it!!

Choosing Mediumcore for my First/Main Character was my biggest regret in playing Terraria. I forgot to count how many times i died and had to run to get my stuff in my first 2 nights.

For all new players: If an item has "material" in it's item description, which you can see by just hovering your Mouse over it while checking your inventory, that means it can be crafted into something If the item has "Consumable" in it's description, that means the item will disappear from your inventory upon use, let me be clear and say, if you have a stack of Consumable items, you just lose 1 item from that stack if you use 1 item

I would say fishes are the easiest food you can get. Stinkfish, Neon Tetra, Peculiar fish are some of the most common ones, and when cooked using a pot will give you a Major enhancement on stats compared to pumpkins' medium stat buff.

11:12 I recommended getting every portable storage like Money Trough, Safe, Void Bag, Defender's Forge (All are obtainable pre-hardmode) And if you are that type of person who are consistent with Inventory management and memory, these portable storages will hold plenty of things throughout your explorations. You must put them in the chest after returning home though, they must be cleaned up when they're full.

Also just a quick thing if you need more inventory space: fallen stars can be put in the ammo slots because technically they are ammo for the star cannon

Coming off of the "choose a class" section, no matter what class you play always use a summon if you have one. It doesn't matter if you're using a prehardmode summon against golem or something, it's a little more DPS and maybe even a debuff and it'll save you more than hurt you. The only real cost is an inventory slot and a buff slot (you can only have so many buffs at once but they drastically increased the number in the last update).

I started my terraria journey Like 6 days ago, it's really fun and intense sometimes. I have been progressing along with my friend who has played terraria for a long time. He made a new character so we would start at the same level. He chose mage class and I chose archer class. I have gotten to the point where we got into hard mode, defeated the mechanical bosses and have really op stuff. I recently got the mega shark which I found out its easier to get shark fins in the dessert during sandstorm then waiting at an ocean. We are currently trying to get me an uzi for ranged class. We have a simple basic boss arena and I always have to many artifacts or what ever you call them. But I didn't know you could combine them. That's gonna make my life so easy

As a console player I can confirm that we have a smart cursor! I don’t know what the default button is because I’ve changed up my controls so much, but I press down on the left joystick. We have customizable controller binds so you can pick whatever feels most comfortable.

Auto save and exit before breaking altars, Go back in the game, When you break altars, make sure auto save is off, you can then go back into the world if you wan different ores, If you want to keep the ores you get, turn in auto save again... I’d recommend Palladium, Orichalcum, Titanium, But the most important is Titanium

Terraria is a game with so much content, So much things to do. Once you get a new item or beat a boss you feel a sense of accomplishment.

On console there are a few different controls. I play on Xbox, so things might be different on play station. 1. Pressing up on the d-pad toggles auto use. This makes it so that when you point the right thumbstick in a direction, the selected item will either be used or consumed. Turning this off is up to preference, but definently turn it off on all recal potions and magic mirrors, as I personally have accidentally teleported out of boss fights, and have had to re summon, and re acquire potions. 2. Pressing in the right thumbstick toggles smart cursor. Most of the time it is better left on, though when doing things such as building houses and making arenas, I find it better to be off. 3. Many keybinds will not assigned. This includes grappling, toggling mounts, quick loot/ quick deposit, and many more. Not all keybinds will be able to be assigned, so pick and choose what you think is important to have. I reccomend to include quick buff and quick heal in those keybinds. ( and quick mana if you play mage)

Would have loved to find a video like this about 3 months ago when I was brand new to Terraria. It was gifted to me and a few other friends by a mutual friend we all have. I'm the only one who figured it out enough (think I'm the only one who actually watched tutorial videos) to keep playing into Hard Mode and eventually end game, but definitely going to link this video to my other friends to try to get them back into us all using multi-player together again! Thank you!

Journey mode should not be the first selected setting in Terraria. It's unintuitive for new players. There should be a clear distinction between the standard modes and the journey mode, both in world creation and character creation.

Love your Videos. Got so many hours in Terraria but still watching your stuff.

I made a channel just to comment this. I have been plying Terraria for the first time the past week. One of the most irritating things I encountered was the random yellow square that kept popping up and messing with my mining and building. I love the game, but that damned yellow square drove me crazy, I couldn’t figure it out.I’m turning it on by hitting control, you just gained a subscriber, and thank you.
