Little Gems From the Wiki Episode 2: The Saga Continues

[darthmorf]

I know that, but why was it on the Duke Fishron page? Plus, worms don't have legs in the first place.

ah, my bad. I thought it was on the truffle page. And yeah, their reasoning is flawed.

 

[colDelay]

From the Mourning Wood page:

The boss is a living tree form that resembles a jack-o-lantern.

Wow. Couldn't guess that myself.
From the Giant Fungi Bulb page:

• 1.2.1.1: No longer drop Magma Stones.

When did they do that?
From the Giant Worm page:

• If the player has a strong Pickaxe, such as the Nightmare Pickaxe or the Deathbringer Pickaxe, they could just keep mining and their pickaxe would eventually deal enough damage to kill the Giant Worm during its passes.

Notice the word "eventually". Eventually you can kill anything, if you have the patience. And well, by the time you get the Nightmare/Deathbringer Pick, worms shouldn't be a trouble anymore.

From the Giant Fungi Bulb page:

When did they do that?

The obvious answer is October 25, 2013.

Tired of the True Terra Blade? Sick of the True Copper Shortsword? Had enough of the True Eyes of Cthulu? Take note of our new True suggestion: The True Undergound [sic] Biomes!

(Obviously, this isn't wrong (except for "undergound"), but we all know how much the community likes things prefixed with True.)

Seems legit.

Important: It's not a slime. It's a mob.

Pumpkins: Now also considered slimy.

[MrFancyPants]

That cant be right...

 

[Nev]

Pumpkins: Now also considered slimy.

Yes. They have the slime animation and AI and drop gel.

 

[thecoolkni]

Yes. They have the slime animation and AI and drop gel.

I think you mean that they're jack-o-lanterns with a slime AI, it doesn't mean that they're actually slimes. As for the gel, the wiki says they don't drop any gel.(But I'm saying this in a thread that's all about where the wiki was wrong.

This was worded badly. It should've said "When summoned, it performs a chant that sounds like it is saying "How do you know?". This also happens when summoning a Phantasm Dragon", or something like that. Other than that, it's true. Go summon it and listen closely.

 

[Aeolus _Aetherius]

So I was looking at the drops page when I some truly ridiculous numbers for drop chances:

 

[Sigma90]

Yes. They have the slime animation and AI and drop gel.

They have the slime AI and move in a similar manner, yes. But I'm pretty sure they don't drop gel, nor are they considered a slime in-game. Having said that, if the pumpkins turn placid when using Royal Gel, then they probably are a Slime variant.

A one in 39,204,882,000,000,000,000 chance of dropping? Yeah, that's approximately how many Skeletons I killed before I got a Skull. See also: Anything else dropped by Skeletal enemies, including Bone Feather, Mining armour and bone tools.
You missed the Magnet Sphere having 599,240,000 in the same screenshot. Are there anymore silly numbers on that page?

Actually, it says 3,920,499 out of 2,000,000,000,000, not 1 out of 39,204,992,000,000,000,000

Oops. I thought it was one long number. Screen resolution is too high, text size is too small and I'm at work and bored. I keep it like this on purpose so people can't read my screen over my shoulder. Guess this time I got myself.

 

[Crystal The Lynx]

A lot of stuff on this thread is just "People who don't understand how statistics work". XD

 

[S3V3N7HR33]

It gives all the info right there, and yet some blessed soul with extreme math and experience in the game still edits it.
(No redirects to the ammo consumption thread please)

 

[jubbalub]

Can someone confirm that it drops from King Slime? I've never had this happen before.

• The Old Man is probably a reference to the Old Man from Legend of Zelda

He could also be a reference to Dr. Light because they both have Beards! (Note the Sarcasm.)

You didn't even notice the "IF YOU BEAT MY MASTER I WILL GRANT YOU ONE WISH"

 

[Nutella Fairy]

This has got to just be one of those personal experience things...

Fun Fact: The enemy spawn rate actually is increased while in the jungle!

 

[S3V3N7HR33]

About time someone posted a new little gem.

improved everything by 200%

 

[TMB50]

The version story for the Suspicious Looking Tentacle, for the obvious reason that around half the edits involve adding/removing trivia about it's tooltip being a reference to hentai.
