What is your absolute favorite Town NPC, and why?

[TheManWithTheFlannel]

There was no room for every NPC, sadly, so if you like any that I missed, go ahead and comment.

 

[Golden Heretic Snakeboat]

You can't beat the princess

 

[Russ Guss Doodles]

Out of all the Pre-Hardmode NPCs the Zoologist is my favorite. I find completing the bestiary and unlocking rewards super satisfying, her lycanthropy thing is super unique, and I think both her classic and shimmer designs are top tier.

You should defenitally make a second poll for the Hardmode NPCs and Merchant NPCs, and make this Poll just about the Pre-Hardmode ones.

 

[TheManWithTheFlannel]

The Zoologist used to be my favorite, too, but the Guide is just so underappreciated.
I've never completed the bestiary, personally
I will, 'cause there's way more NPCs not mentioned.

The Tavernkeep, I enjoy making taverns for other NPCs to hang out in.

 

[Impostor]

Wizard since he unlocks a lot of versatile Early-Hardmode weapons where you likely are moving out of Pre-Hardmode weapons

 

[Jar-O-Steam☣️]

incredibly unpopular opinion but my favorite is 100% the angler

 

[Toxophilite [East]]

In my most recent playthrough, I'll have to say the Dryad, she can sell/ do a lot of cool stuff that I didn't know about not the bees!.

Before that, when 1.4 initially dropped, it was the Zoologist, for obvious reasons [Mounts, Vanity Items, Pets, GTCC, etc.]. I'm assuming in every kind of challenging special seed, you'll likely learn to appreciate certain NPCs more [or less].

I like the Cyborg
Simply because once you get the CelebrationMK2 you can just destroy everything around you, as on blood moons and solar eclipses, they sell Rocket IV, which can be crafted into Mini Nuke 2. These destroy tiles VERY fast, and CelebrationMK2 shoots very fast and doesnt use Ammo ever time you shoot it. This allows you to shred through a large world COMPLETELY in 10 minutes. I have done it.
This allows you to find the Dirtiest Dirt Block really fast

Mine is the Mechanic, I like the stuff she sells, and I find the relationship between her and the goblin tinkerer wholesome

Yea
I remember a long time ago seeing that on 360 and thinking it was just adorble

Mechanic × Goblin Tinkerer is best ship

 

[Zallaraxium]

Uurgh, this is a tough one. Either the Witch Doctor or the Goblin Tinkerer, cause theyre cute and the Witch Doctor is cool.

Truffle, I just like him, he was also the first NPC I gave a special house to, being somewhat like a hobbit hole.
