​

I found that some items have a boring/so simple way to get them (buy from npc, drops ...etc)
So here are the items that in my opinion (well most of the suggestions are IMO so..) they need another way to get them:-

​

Boss drops:-

Golem:-
Now the golem will drop Golem's Core

(100% chance) instead of the following items:-

Picksaw: crafting: 1

+ 1

(at a

lihzahrd furnace)
new items!!

chaindrill: crafting: 1

+ 1

(at a

lihzahrd furnace)
lihzahrd stone:

have a 100% to be dropped by the golem in a stack of (20-30)
old items, again:-

Stynger: crafting: 1

+ 1

+ 20

lihzahrd stone (at a

lihzahrd furnace)

Possessed hatchet: crafting: 1

+ 8

+ 20

lihzahrd stone (at a

lihzahrd furnace)

Sun stone: crafting: 1

+ 15

(at a

lihzahrd furnace)

Eye of the golem: crafting: 1

+ 5

(at a

lihzahrd furnace)

Heat ray:crafting: 1

+ 1

+ 6

(at a

lihzahrd furnace)

Staff of earth: crafting: 1

+ 1

lihzahrd boulder + 8

(at a

lihzahrd furnace)
Lihzahrd boulder:

crafting: 1

+ 6

lihzahrd stone (at a

lihzahrd furnace) notes: does more damage than normal boulders (100-200)

Golem fist: crafting: 1

+ 20

+ 30

lihzahrd stone (at a

lihzahrd furnace)

Plantera:-
Now plantera will drop Plantera Pollen

(100% chance) instead of the following items:-

Grenade launcher: crafting: 1

+ 20

/

+ 1

Venus magnum: crafting: 1

+ 1

+ 1

+ 16

Nettle burst: crafting: 1

+ 5

+ 5

+ 1

Leaves:

uncommon drop from jungle bushes, 100% chance to drop one leaves from leaf block.

Leaf blower: crafting: 1

+ 30

+ 3

+ 6

Flower pow: crafting: 1

+ 1

+ 5

+ 5

Wasp gun: crafting: 1

+ 1

​

NPC:-
witch doctor:-
He’s the most npc that need a better ways to get some of his items:-

Hercules beetle: now it's dropped by Hercules beetle:-

flying:

Type: beetle-flying enemy
Environment: underground jungle
AI type: fighter
Damage: 90 when flying - 110 when on ground
Max life: 1200
Defense: 38
Spawn: have the same spawn rate as moths and only spawn if wall of flesh is defeated.
Drops:

(33.33% chance) Hercules beetle banner (0.5%)
Notes: act the same as mushi ladybugs

tiki wood: now plantera will drop 40-80 tiki wood each time you kill it, can be placed and it's used in the crafting of the following items:

Leaf wings: now have a crafting recipe instead of being sold by witch doctor: 30

+ 80

+ 20

Tiki armor: it's the only armor in the game that it's sold instead of being crafted, so i have an idea for a crafting recipe:-

Tiki mask: 40

Tiki shirt: 80

Tiki pants: 60

Truffle:-
Crafting recipes for some items:-

Mushroom spear: 1

+ 90

(at an

autohammer)

Hammush: 1

+ 120

+ 15

(at an

/

anvil)

Traveling merchant:-
Now he will sell lodestone instead of the

(the reason is below):-

The traveling merchant sell it for 15 gold, you can combine it with one

to make the

.
The reason for this item that if the developers are planning at adding more magnet-accessories, this will give an easy way to do it.

​

Chests items:-

Dark lance:-
Now does 37 damage instead of 27, and you have to combine the following legendary spears at a demon altar to get it:-

The cursed halberd or the rotted fork:-
The cursed halberd:-

Damage: 14
Knockback: 5.5
Use time: 28 (average)
Crafting: 10

+ 5

Notes: the crimson has a flail and a spear, so why not?

Enchanted naginata:-

Damage: 15
Knockback: 3
Use time: 22 (fast)
How to get it:

Notes:-

Due to the blue color of the staff portion of the scepter, it can be assumed it is made from enchanted cobalt, like most other dungeon items, i.e. Muramasa, Magic Missile, and of course, the Cobalt Shield.

that's why i called it enchanted naginata.

Jungle beauty:-

Damage: 24
Knockback: 6
Use time: 33 (slow)
Crafting: 1

+ 12

+ 15

Tooltip: "it's beautiful, oh so beautiful"
Notes: have a 25% chance to poison.

Flame lance:-

Damage: 30
Knockback: 8
Use time: 40 (very slow, a little bit slower than mushroom spear)
How to get it:

Notes: have a 50% chance to set enemies on fire.


Furniture Crafting Stations:-

now these will generate as placed furniture instead of being in chests, and every world would have at least one of each crafting stations generated (except the living loom, which depend on having a living tree with an entrance in it)

sorry for removing the queen bee stuf cuz it's a side boss plz dun hurt meh
also since this thread is old I should really think of some tweaks..


Anyway thanks for reading! Leave feedback if you want! and yee

I don't see why not! Wasn't this already in TO?

Good job! I prefer crafting instead of RNG

 

[Fruitbat]

Oh btw I added new options because I accidentally posted it too early.. so go vote again!
EDIT: wtf it didn't add/edit the choices I edited/added

ye it was

Will I get shouted at if I say "SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY"?

yayy I'll become rich now
MOAR
GIVE ME MOAR BEFORE THE ARGUMENTS START

 

[Kyouko Tsukino]

By the way, Fishron and the Moons. They need a non-"if RNG feels like it!" way to get their drops.

Of course, I expect people to say only one "special" item per RNG object is "OP" because beating the same boss fifty times apparently is harder than beating it once... Hint: No, it's not. Time wasted doing something =! difficulty.

 

[randomterrarian42]

Furniture crafting stations is twice on the poll FTW

 

[VictorLes]

Support, i like it but rng will become more OP
(but need more fruitbats)

weirdly enough I saw that it was edited, but after a while it turned into what it was plus a duplicate option
I reported it and it got removed btw

 

[Devinox]

I like this idea!
I support!

 

[Chazm]

Support, only thing I don't like is using gems to craft accessories.

 

[Fruitbat]

UPDATE:-
I added a support banner and revamped some sprites..

--->

--->

(it looked way better in paint..)
and I changed the name of the molten lance to flame lance.

I gotta say, this would make the process of getting these items much more interesting. The only bad part is that it practically makes the Witch Doctor useless.

well, it doesn't.
you'll still want to go to the witch doctor to buy venom (which is a quite useful material), pygmy necklace, and maybe the pet.

 

[Folder]

Me Agree with this suggestion
If this is added, we need more uses for the Witch Doctor

 

[Fruitbat]

well, it doesn't.

and there are a lot of NPCs that has less store items than Witch Doctor's and are less useful, so if the witch doctor should get more items with this suggestion, all these NPCs should get more items as well (or be more useful)

 

[Can I Get Uhhh]

Ah, it's okay...

 

[SzGamer227]

This should be done for absolutely every random drop in Terraria and compiled into a big "Anti-RNG Supermod." I guarantee that tons of people would use it. I cannot however see the developers adopting this change, as they have already established RNG drops as a driving force in this game and aren't likely going to completely disband it.

The only suggestions that are related to RNG here are the golem and plantera, the others are just normal suggestions.
Also @Yoraiz0r liked the original thread on TO (but that was ages ago), so that might be a thing...

I personally enjoy RNG so I'm not entirely a fan of this idea- however I can see the merit to those who have the worse luck with luck in general- if the Terraria Crew ever decide to add something like this. Perhaps it could be the line between a certain mode/difficulty. Higher difficulty- RNG based, lower difficulty- items to craft the stuff. Doesn't stop anyone from trading items from an easier account to a harder account but I feel like it would give people more options and allow for a happier community all together.

The idea itself is great; I like how it adds items and fixes things that other players have problems with. As I said before it's not my cup of tea but maybe some option could be a thing at the very least to allow for a bit more ease of access for other players. Great job overall though; ʇɐqʇᴉnɹℲ.
