The corruption sure can do a lot of damage to a player's world, and so can the Crimson! (Hallow, too, to a lesser extent.) Most of this has to do with the Co/Cr/H biomes converting blocks like, say, mud into something they can actually convert, destroying biomes like jungles in the process (and making Plantera absolutely unveable to fight.) I propose more Co/Cr/H Biomes to fix this problem: the Co/Cr/H Jungle and Ocean biomes! (This way, you can still salvage it with the Clentaminator instead of getting an underground Forest.)

-Corrupt Jungle: Contains Ebony Hornets and Cursed Tortoises. Ebony Hornets are a corrupt version of the regular Hornet, while Cursed Tortoises will ignite with cursed flames upon using their shell attack. Cursed Tortoises have a chance of dropping the Infernal Shell (all attacks inflict Cursed Inferno, but only when below 25% health) while Ebony Hornets can drop the Cursed Feather, used in Cursed Flame Wings.

-Crimson Jungle: Contains Crimtane Hornets and Night Crawlers. Crimtane Hornets inflict Ichor with their stingers, while Night Crawlers are much harder and more ichor-infused variants of the Blood Crawler. Night Crawlers can drop the Ichor Fang upon death, which allows friendly Spiders (including Spider Queen) to inflict Ichor rarely (due to a lack of summon weapons with this useful debuff.) Crimtane Hornets drop the Ichor Feather upon death, used in more wing crafting.

Hallowed Jungles contain Ivory Hornets, whose stingers split into three upon hitting a player like a Cursed Bullet, and the Crystal Feeder which is a crystallized Man Eater with a spiked stem that deals damage as well. The Crystal Feeder drops the Crystal Vine (Grappling hooks deal 35 damage and heavy knockback to anything it hits) while the Ivory Hornet drops the Crystal Feather, surprise more wings.


As for the Co/Cr/H Ocean, it can spawn the Cursed/Vicious/Luminous Whale sometimes when fishing (Around 1/50 with max bait power), which is huge (roughly the size of Duke Fishron) and slowly swims towards the player with its massive health pool, occasionally shooting projectiles out of its blowhole. Normal oceans spawn the White Whale instead, which is similar but slightly weaker. None of them have any unique drops, but the Pirate will begin selling the Blubber once you defeat at least one, which summons a Flying Whale pet.
 
Some ideas for accessory combinations for the new accessories:
Frostflame Turtle Shell (Infernal Shell + Frozen Turtle Shell): Combines the abilities of the two, along with it causing Frostburn instead of Cursed Inferno.
Frozenfire Shield (FTS + Paladin's Shield): Combines the effects. Lowers the defense the shield gives you outright to 3.
Crawler Medallion (Ichor Fang + Pygmy Necklace): Combines the effects of the two.
Scroll of Spiders (Crawler Medallion + Papyrus Scarab + Avenger Medal): Effects of Papyrus Scarab and Crawler Medallion, along with causeing the Ichor effect to be applied to all summons. Basically a Fire Gauntlet/Sniper Scope for Summoners.
Feel free to use these if you want.

Those are some really good ideas!
Of note:
-Cursed Inferno is slightly stronger than Frostburn, but doesn't effect as many enemies. For this reason, the decisions are real: do more damage and more water effect, or gain extra tank power and affect more foes?

-Scroll of Spiders: YES FINALLY A SUMMONER MEDALLION ITEM

-I haven't sprited the wings yet, because I'm not good at pixel art (YET). They would basically be around Leaf-tier. Cursed would resemble Flame Wings but more sinister and with green flame, Ichor would resemble Frost Wings but more "drippy" and golden, and Crystal would resemble Leaf Wings with crystals instead of leaves. Good ideas?
