Terraria plantera arena moonlord update update#

Try building your arena so the center is at your natural world spawn, that way if an event occurs you can easily teleport there by unsetting your spawn point from your bed and using a Magic Mirror or Recall Potion.

This way, you can still right-click her easily since she is right underneath you and still run right by without having to enter a building that could trap you.

If using the Nurse is something that you are planning to do, create a three block high valid NPC house directly underneath your arena and move in the Nurse.

In 1.4.4, Teleporters are now bought from the Mechanic, making them available once Skeletron has been defeated. They could also, alternatively, be used to teleport to the Nurse, heal up, and quickly return to the arena. When wired to a Pressure Plate placed above them, you can instantly transport across the arena as soon as you walk on them, greatly increasing mobility.

Once you have killed a Mechanical Boss and had the Steampunker move in, you can buy and use Teleporters to devastating effect.

In 1.4, since luck increases damage, it's helpful to place luck increasing items like Garden Gnomes, and the corresponding biome's Torches if in the underground or below.

It is found in the underground desert, or in Oasis and Mirage Crates fished up in the desert.

A Bast Statue can be used to increase defense of nearby players.

The house is better built away from the arena to prevent the Nurse from being killed. The House should have a Bed, so in the middle of the battle you can use a Magic Mirror or Recall Potions to visit the Nurse and get instant healing.

You can build a house for your Nurse NPC near your arena.

Water Candles increase enemy spawn rate, which will help when fighting timed events such as the Pumpkin Moon - keep in mind, though, that fighting bosses or untimed events will be more difficult.

Peace Candles reduce enemy spawn rate, which may help on bigger arenas - however, in many scenarios such as farming events, an increased spawn rate is more favorable.

Sunflowers reduce enemy spawn rate and increase movement speed.

A Mage may also want to place Stars in a Bottle and Star Statues to regain Mana more easily.

Placing Campfires, Heart Lanterns, Honey placed in Bubbles and Heart Statues will greatly increase Health regeneration in battle.

Traps and Lava can be used to easily kill enemies from Events, while certain bosses like King Slime lack the ability to attack through solid blocks (although as of update 1.3.0.1, King Slime will teleport directly to the player if he gets stuck on blocks).

Sometimes, the shape of the arena depends on the Boss or Event and how the player decides to fight it.

A typical arena usually consists of multiple long rows of Wood Platforms, or a flat surface on the ground or the air made out of Asphalt Blocks to greatly increase running speed.

It's better built near the ground, far from Space so there won't be any unwanted Harpy or Wyvern spawns during an important fight.

An arena is better built away from Bases so NPCs won't get hurt or killed.
