Hot Topic Terrarians, show us your "I must screenshot this" moment

[Murphmario]

Here are some screenshots from my most-recent playthrough, not in order:

I got killed by a Medua mid-air. Not only that, but there was a NYMPH. Why did this have to happen!?

Living Tree: Able to break bricks that are very hard.

It's not everyday you see a naturally-generated minecart track on a boulder trap.

Or a hopite and a mimic in the Underworld.

I think a boulder trap was here, but worldgen said "Nope."

What's wrong dude? Ya stuck?

Speaking of things in small spaces, have a illuminant bat in a small space outside of it's normal biome!

Bone Serpents like to spawn up here.

I wonder who put all this water here...

...Was it this hiding strange plant?

Or was it RNG!?

Keep in mind that I was not wearing a robe at the time, just Molten Armor. Seriously though, 5 Tims...

Really RNG!? You drop 3 Poison Staffs near the same time in the same spider nest, and one of them is Mythical! Why aren't you always like this!?

An oasis I was very proud of It's now aurora's spawn

 

[MrToni250]

Yeah i know that already, because medusas is always being so brutal murderers.

Pyramid at the ocean with a random harpy, kden

Isn't that convenient? Sadly I don't need any for HP, but some lanterns can't hurt

Not much special about it at first, but I'd like you to absorb everything going on here, now imagine it in real life. There is a man with green hair and beard as well as chained arms and a wedding dress, fishing on a lake in the clouds with ropes hanging off, using a bunch of mud and rocks as a shelter, as demons fight angels with fire above a lake and giant killer bees float around. In other news, this is great for a caption contest, just wish I'd turned the HUD off.

Sounds like an average Terraria day

I'm back, with more quality images to liven up this drab thread.
Let's start with this, since you guys seem to think caves in thin ice are crazy.

Try Spider Caves in thin ice.
You like doubles? I got yer doubles.

How about triples?

Now that's how you start a party.
You guys want some more?

Well that's odd generation for spider cave.

Well that must be very strange world generate, but you totally got better advantage already.

Not to mention it's nesting right into a granite cave. Looks super cool.

Sad thing is that it's right next to your jungle. Looks pretty cool though.

This cabin must be very heavy so it's need so many support.

 

[plantszaza 🌳]

I saw somebody posting picture of skeleton merchant standing on a floating block... I guess there can be weirder.

 

[plantszaza 🌳]

I saw you healing the dirt over there.

..You should move a little bit before you heal yourself you know!

 

[Xman101🌳]

It's getting a little cosy in there.

I don't know about you, but this a pretty damn small obsidian house.

Even the Dungeon isn't safe from the Boulder Traps!

The Frankenstein of Jungle Shrines.

Loads, and Loads, and LOADS of Platinum on the Surface in this latest world/playthrough!

In fact, there's so much of it, that I'm going to use a spoiler tag.

All of this was found to the right of my starting location.

Spoiler: Platinum!

^^
This is the first one. I was thinking "huh. odd. I'll screenshot this."

Not too long after, I came across this, and I was like "WOW!" When I got done mining this, I had 60 Platinum Ore on me. As you can see in the screenshot, I've got some stuff already. I made a trip into the caves and then I was like "ok now that I got some armor and weapons, I'll explore the surface".

Anyways...

Found Even More Platinum!

.....now this is getting ridiculous.

I saw a glimmer at the bottom of this water pool.... could it be...? Why yes... more platinum.

And finally, right near the dungeon (there was lots of corruption and sand on the other side of the Dungeon), one last bit of platinum.

What I didn't mention or show in these screenshots, is all the silver I found along with the platinum.

I went from 19 Silver Ore to 161 Platinum and 196 Silver just by exploring the surface to the right of my spawn point.

That's just shy of two-thirds of all the silver ore you need for a full suit of silver armor, and the platinum would easily make you a pickaxe, an axe, and a pocketwatch, Easy. All without ever delving into a single cave.

I wish I'd known this before going into the caves, I coulda done this and taken a screenshot of me having this equipment before even going underground lol.
