Official Terrarian
Like many others I've come back to Terraria because of the new patch. I am so impressed and I have seen a small fraction of it. I basically wanted to ask people's opinions about the desert biome? Personally I love it, I've read some posts saying that they think the desert is ugly and unnecessary. I've always thought the desert was lacking, the pyramid really helped but even that was pretty small and you were lucky if it even spawned on your world. Anyway what are your pros and cons of the desert biome?
Pros
- it's a challenging area for a new explorer, reminds me of a slightly less difficult jungle.
- I had an awesome mine cart go through mine, might be part of the biome or not but it was cool.
- ores are really plentiful and easy to see, you just have to survive!
- easier now to farm antlions mandibles.
Cons
- the desert rooms with a chest leave much to be desired, a little boring.
- my desert was just a tiny bit too close to my base, I have to go really far out of my way to get to an underground biome.
Please don't reveal other spoilers about the rest of the game, I am very much enjoying discovering it all with no spoilers! Love this game!
