Things that you didn't realize were in the game for the longest time?

[MadCat]

Ancient Vision. I browse the wiki very heavily every update and then I just stumble upon this today.
Fire Gauntlet makes most things you hold on fire
Spectre bars weren't around until 1.3 I always thought they were until I read the changelog

The absolute usefulness of "Shift" button when it comes to placing down torches during exploration.

I found that out while trying to crouch after playing Minecraft for too long.

Whaaaaaat?! I should not kill the lunatic that fast.

 

[Lecic]

What's that?

It's a rare butterfly with a huge amount of bait power.

 

[Bethany]

This is all 1.3 stiff. That hardly counts.

I guess so. But I was plenty familiar with the others. Been playing 1.3 pretty heavily. It's a good way to pass time while the (tiny two-machine) render farm grinds.

Also I'd nothing else to post about in the thread.

You can catch fish as Prismite, Hemopirana or Ebonkoi in aboveground, that you can catch last two even before hardmode, that final 1.3 armor have authoglow, what "I know what are you thinking" about SLT means, that "Terrarian Gotnic" is a name of ship.

 

[ZombieGenius]

I just found out that the eater's bone exists.

 

[TobyJ]

Treasure bags can be stacked! I was almost never ballsy enough to go beat the boss again, and if I was, I'd already looted the first bag.

 

[bisslit]

Until 1.3 i didn't know that Web Slinger exists ^^'

 

[Greenie]

For the longest time I had no idea the bunny hood even existed. The ONLY reason I even found out about it is because I was watching back through an old let's play of this game and it was mentioned there.

It also took me quite a while to find out that the musket had auto-fire, so I might as well put that here too.

From 1.3 had no idea Obsidian Armor was a thing. As well as the Arkhalis sword which is even rarer than than the Enchanted Sword.

You can put baits on ammo slot. I just found this by seeing random person mention about it on the forum.

The obsidian armor is merely vanity item.

How long has this been a thing?

Since 1.3.

 

[Puppetmaster]

I had no idea that NPCS dropped weapons. My painter died and I got a paint gun.

You're a terrible person.

Bone Javelins can be reobtained when not having a throwing set bonus,

 

[Rejn]

Looking at puppetmaster post I decided to see what npc drops and dicovered that when you kill guide when his name is Andrew, he drop a hat biggest surprise for me was that's 1.2 stuff

 

[MrMarkedMantis]

two items called the endless quiver and the endless musket ball pouch (idk what they're actually called)
