Considering how long ago that is, I'm guessing you got it.

Easy mode is lots of sticky bombs and running around though. Dynamite where applicable.

Edit: And if they got the dryad that means they were at my place. Darn those goblins. Double darn them 'cause I've been jonesing to kill them, and missed it.

Edit 2: Read that PM on accident. You might still be at it. If you are I'll be on in a sec.|

Edit 3: Goblin invasion was still going. Awesome. Finished them off.

...Why doesn't my house have a door though?

Aldurin 05-30-2011 02:09 AM

How long until the server structures get demolished by meteors caused by a bajillion orbs of shadow breaking over the weeks?

Krylo 05-30-2011 03:52 AM

I'm pretty sure orbs of shadow only spawn at world gen. We'll run out of shadow orbs before it's a problem.

Thadius 05-30-2011 06:54 AM

I am become Thadius, underminer of HELL ITSELF.

Pretty damn fun. Now all I need is to take down Skeletor and find me an underground jungle.

Marc v4.0 05-30-2011 08:37 AM

I am finding the Underworld a royal pain in the flying ass to mine because of the CONSTANT IMPS

Thadius 05-30-2011 12:56 PM

Trust me, you haven't seen the worst of it yet.

The worst part is when you find the jungle and decide to just keep exploring it.

Until you find that you end up in hell again.

Ever been gang-raped by a man-eater, two hornets, and three fire imps?

It ain't a pretty picture.

Marc v4.0 05-30-2011 12:59 PM

Most of my jungles end before the Underworld line, as does the one in the MP map. I apparently built my tower right on top of an underground jungle

Aldurin 05-30-2011 01:08 PM

I thought shadow orbs could be created by letting corruption seeds do their thing unhindered. Also it would be cool to have a multi-map set up so we could have one world that is only corruption (e: and meteor crash sites).

Thadius 05-30-2011 02:43 PM

Well now that Skeletron is dead and his pad raided, I feel confident in saying that with a sufficient amount of potions, my character is reasonably unkillable.

Yes, I got THE blade. And even THE flail. But there is something I did not get, and I will not consider myself to have finished acquiring stuff until I find it.

What does it take to get a pair of rocket boots?! Who do I have to sacrifice, huh?

Aldurin 05-30-2011 03:00 PM

I just went and got all of the jungle equipment and did the whole "The rape train does not stop for Skeletron" deal, then I went through the dungeon, coming out with multiple magic items, THE flail and a shitload of gold.

WHERE ARE THE ROCKET BOOTS?!

Marc v4.0 05-30-2011 03:10 PM

In the sky

Krylo 05-30-2011 05:11 PM

Floating islands or drops from goblin armies. To be more specific.

Marc v4.0 06-01-2011 06:09 AM

I cannot stay connected anymore to the NPF Bits server. I long in just long enough to see myself standing there, but No welcome message pops up in the chat and then I just get disconnected

Krylo 06-01-2011 11:04 AM

Same here. I think maybe Tahr needs to restart the server. Was getting some lag last night too.

CelesJessa 06-01-2011 11:48 PM

It seems like every time I log on I get attacked by horrible monsters. Yesterday, just as I was working on an addition to my house, a goblin army attacked, then today, when I was going through my treasure, the Eye of Cthulu attacked. Still, I think my house is pretty cool. (and my secret summer home, which was just a small building on floating island I found and stole the chest out of.)

Thadius 06-01-2011 11:56 PM

COBALT ARMOR.

FUCK YES.

Word of advice to anyone who is having trouble finding it all:

Bring an aqua candle with you. The hornets will LOVE you then, and your grinding time will go from days to merely hours.

Next project: Sunfury and Flamelash. This will be marginally easier than my last project, due to the accidental flooding of hell.

Jagos 06-02-2011 12:03 AM

Dammit, I just got this game.

All you fuckers are evil...

-E- What the fuck am I doing? I can't talk, can't make shit and those damn eye balls are pissing me off! >_<

Aldurin 06-02-2011 02:10 AM

I just got on the server earlier, but since I'm tired I'll build some shit tomorrow.

Suggestion: Either play single player first and talk to the guide to figure it out, or get a time with someone else when you can log into multiplayer and be shown the ropes.

Donomni 06-02-2011 12:42 PM

Oh hey new stuff.

I'll check it out more later, but unlimited SPAAAAAACE GUNZ PEW PEW looks pretty cool.

Aldurin 06-02-2011 01:31 PM

Oh fuck yes the guide can die now.

Aldurin 06-02-2011 02:21 PM

Can't get on the server because it needs to upgrade.

McTahr 06-02-2011 03:39 PM

Upgraded. My bad, didn't notice the update was out.

Thadius 06-02-2011 03:47 PM

Okay my plan to terrorize hell itself was interrupted slightly due to me wanting to have a goddamn CLOSER underground jungle. And as such, I went to go get...

A seed. And with this seed, I shall finally have a local underground jungle!

Terrorizing of hell shall commence shortly. I want Tim's hat.

Doc ock rokc 06-04-2011 02:13 AM

Ok how do i get on the multiplayer server?

Krylo 06-04-2011 02:17 AM

BLACK MAGIC.

Revising Ocelot 06-04-2011 06:23 AM

Just randomly came into possession of this yesterday, thanks to some spontaneous generosity from someone I don't even know. *shrug*

Now to figure out how Hamachi works, assuming cross-continent lag doesn't screw me over like Minecraft does.

ANYWAY, you have to download a program called Hamachi, then join an existing network, then use the name 'NPF Bits' and the password 'FPN'.

Once you're connected to the Hamachi network you should be able to connect to me through 5.247.134.192, but Krylo's having issues so I'ma jank around with it.

Since you didn't feel like checking anything at all, apparently.

And for the record, your question was "How do I connect to the server?" Krylo answered that perfectly fine. The quotes above should answer any other queries you have.

The reason im so ticked off is that I tried this same IP twice and it says it doesn't exist and there is no fucking list of names because IM NOT ON A NETWORK. So i can't go to Step B with out Step A and I can't go to step A because I DON"T HAVE THE IP.

Krylo 06-04-2011 03:24 PM

You don't need the ip. You download the program called hamachi. You connect to the server called NPF Bits on that, with the password FPN. This will show you all the other people connected to that server, including McTahr, whose IP will be shown.

Hamachi doesn't use IPs to connect to networks.

Doc ock rokc 06-04-2011 03:28 PM

I have Hamachi And it says i need a IP
maybe i got the wrong verson or something but it keeps requesting a IP to see networks.

MuMu 06-04-2011 03:35 PM

Me and Ald went left until we found a sea. Then we reached it's bottom and there was nothing, so we kept digging downwards for treasure but he had to leave. :(

Wonder if a Terraria Steam Night could work.

Krylo 06-04-2011 03:35 PM

You should have LogMeIn Hamachi 2.

When you start it up it should ask you to put in an ID for your computer, this can be whatever you want it to be. Then it should ask you if you want to join a network or start a network. If not you'll have to go to the network menu at the top of the window and select join an existing network.

When you click the join button it should come up with a box that lets you put in a network ID and password.

This screen:

http://i54.tinypic.com/f4myrl.png

Under Network ID you put in NPF Bits.

Under Password FPN.

Aldurin 06-04-2011 03:38 PM

Oh yeah, my excursion with MuMu gave me a (bad) idea.

Who's okay with draining the ocean into hellworld?

CelesJessa 06-04-2011 03:41 PM

Krylo beat me to explaining it but I just made a lovely picture guide.

Fill in the password as necessary, of course.

The area under Tahr's hellevator is already pretty flooded.

Aldurin 06-04-2011 03:51 PM

More water couldn't hurt.

Krylo 06-04-2011 04:15 PM

Oh speaking of: If anyone needs buckets for things like water moving or obsidian creation or whatever, I have two chests just about full of them at the entrance to the mines. You may BORROW them. Please return any you use. If you accidentally drop a few in lava or something like that, replace them or leave me some 3 iron per if you can. If you can't, it's cool so long as it doesn't happen too often.

ALSO: Whomever left a suit of shadow mail, and some other stuff presumably (I think a fire flower and hermes boots EDIT: Apparently also a demon bow), in the chest by the foot of my bed, I have moved it to the first chest in my study. Reason being that I use the foot of my bed chest for my gear, and I like to have room for when I'm taking off/putting on stuff. And CJ has already been shlubbing THAT chest as extra storage so...

MuMu 06-04-2011 05:41 PM

Sorry, that was me, thought all the chests were for donations.

Krylo 06-04-2011 05:44 PM

Haha, no, they're for my stuff. Except the one left most chest in my study which I don't really use for anything.

ANYWAY, yet another full set of scale mail has been moved to the furthest left chest in my study. Anyone can take stuff out of there if they like.

Revising Ocelot 06-04-2011 06:17 PM

Lag vs. Ocelot = about 8-0 in favour of lag.

That was terrible and you are a terrible person.

Shame on you. Shame.

Seriously. Shame.

Thadius 06-04-2011 08:14 PM

It turns out that with meteor shot, it doesn't take long at all to find flying islands! I am now the proud owner of a golden horseshoe and a shiny red balloon thanks to them.

Coupled with the rocket boots the goblins were so kind to give me and my jungle suit, I'd have to say that there is no distance I cannot travel.

Except the ocean. Where are the flippers and breathing reed? I need them for mass transport of water to the underworld. Plus it would help when meteors decide to crash into the ocean.

I only now require Tim to make an appearance so that I can steal his hat, and for the Bone Serpents to give me the Sunfury. Then I will be done getting stuff. It will then be time to BUILD stuff. I'm thinking a giant floating palace on the nearby flying island with all the bricks I've stolen from shrines...

I have a bunch of flippers I never use. Maybe I'll toss some in the left most chest in my study.

However, the breathing reed is completely useless. It only doubles your height for purposes of breathing, and you can do nothing else while using it.

Quote:

He spawns at the dark grey rock level (between 'beneath sea level' and 'underworld'). Pretty commonly at that.

You and me both.

Revising Ocelot 06-05-2011 09:50 AM

So I was running around in gold armour, and now I'm running around in Ominous Evil purple stuff. It's like a reverse Final Fantasy IV.

Let it be said that I will not be cowed by giant worms in the comfort of my own home (Or the large wooden platforms 50 feet above it), when I am equipped with a long... flail.

And that bloody guide decided to respawn after dieing. What a bastard.

Krylo 06-05-2011 05:38 PM

Put three donation chests at natural spawn (right above CJ's cave). Moved all the stuff from my left most study chest to them. It was getting a little over full.

Also put in some stuff of my own I don't need (second light orb, staff of regrowth, etc.).

Thadius 06-05-2011 08:17 PM

Tim has been slain.

The giant worms of the Underworld have given unto me both their rare drops.

I am now in the process of making a flying island my base.

When it is done, expect pictures.

Kim 06-05-2011 08:35 PM

Got a decent amount of demonite. Gonna try and get some shadow scales next time I play so I can make some better pants and shit. After that I'll begin my quest for Hellstone, cuz I've got a shit ton of obsidian.

Aldurin 06-05-2011 09:44 PM

It's funny how you'll view demonite soon, since once you have all of the tools and armor you'll head straight to meteorite and in the process you'll kill enough World Eaters and Giant Eyes that you'll have hundreds of ore and no reason to use it.

Though it'd be nice if a brick could be made from demonite ore, then I'd be happy with my thousand or so amount.

Thadius 06-05-2011 11:02 PM

No, see, that'd be a bad thing. Clearly someone tried to make bricks with demonite ore already. That's why we have corruption and eyes and giant dongs worms all over the fucking place.

Do not seek the power of the gods, Aldurin. Especially evil ones.

Aldurin 06-06-2011 12:52 AM

Too late.

Pip Boy 06-06-2011 01:22 AM

If anyone can help me resolve the connectivity issues I've been having, I will dispense large amounts of goodies including some rare weapons and items available only in certain places, and lots of ores and hellstone obsidian and things.

EDIT: Those connectivity issues being that I am totally unable to connect.

Thadius 06-06-2011 03:14 AM

PSCHOOOOOOOO
 
I thought that way too, Doc.

Then I got the Ivy Whip.

And then I got the Rocket shoes. And the lucky horseshoe and the red balloon.

I feel like I should star in a goddamn Lucky Charms commercial.

Krylo 06-06-2011 04:04 AM

Got an underground jungle right under my house. Don't mangle the mud too much, but if you want to expand it, add more mud, make rooms larger to enable more hornet/man eater spawns, that kind of thing, feel free.

Also feel free to farm it for jungle seeds and other jungle drops.

Edit: Also thinking of making a wooden platform skyway at about 5-600 hundred height with towers leading to/from significant land marks (spawn, dungeon, town) and signs marking other less important ones (corruption). Note: Wooden platforms do not catch meteorites. However, this is gonna take about ten million wooden platforms, so anyone wanting to drop wood in any of my chests will find their efforts appreciated.

Melfice 06-06-2011 04:25 AM

... Welp.

Krylo 06-06-2011 07:09 AM

First tower is nearly complete. It is known as the 'Pillar of Corruption' and is made out of Demonite and Ebonstone.

It has enough ebonstone that you can summon the Devourer of Worlds within (which I have done once and will do again soon to get more demonite to finish it). I also made a small corrupted area around it, as that it is right on spawn if this makes it too difficult for new players, you can purify some of that. I don't think it should be much of a problem, however, given they can just hop into the tower and take an express elevator to the mines under my house, or walk a few feet to the right and be free of the corruption.

Also figured it might be convenient to have a place to spawn the devourer without walking.

Edit: Thinking of making a 'world tree' the theme for the town pillar, as that the town itself is already a wooden tower that could be easily converted into a 'trunk'.

Aldurin 06-06-2011 07:12 PM

There is a tower of unhindered corruption that was apparently made by Krylo. All I have to say is Have you heard of sunflowers?

Thadius 06-06-2011 08:09 PM

So hey, I found the build limit in my world.

Now I'm building a Hellstone building up there. Once it's done, I will call it the Prometheus Station.

Edit: Wiki lied to me. Will fix it now.

Sunflowers ruined the decor.

Also I corrupted the ground on purpose.

Edit 2: There fixed, Whiney pants. Wasn't supposed to be able to grow past stone. Guess it just slows it down, not stops it.

It seems to do that. It says Bone Snakes are rare, and yet I end up fighting two of them at once every time I go hellstone hunting.

Thadius 06-07-2011 01:18 AM

You do that and you DON'T blow them up for their rare drops?

Figured I might as well type it out here: Every segment of the bone serpent has a 1/100 chance to drop either of their rare drops.

Let that sink in. Every. Segment.

So what do you do to ensure that you get a rare drop? Well, nothing. But you can improve your odds tenfold.

Step 1: Go to hell.
Step 2: Mine out a bit of hellstone.
Step 3: Make a stage about 25-30 blocks long. You may want it longer. Ensure that you are not floating over LAVA, but rather solid ground.
Step 4: Within reasonable jumping distance, lay down a similar length of wooden platforms. You need to be able to jump onto it from your stage at a moment's notice.
Step 5: Either find something to do or hold an Aqua Candle.
Step 6: When a serpent shows up to play, ensure that it is burrowing and jumping as vertical as possible near your staging area.
Step 7: Equip your dynamite.
Step 8: TIMING. I find that as the serpent's head is just about to clear the platform going down is an ideal time to toss the dynamite at your feet. After of which comes jumping for your life and waiting for the serpent to walk into your trap.
Step 9: BOOM
Step 10: Profit!

Small note: DO NOT USE HELLSTONE BRICKS. Those ARE perfectly destroyable. Regular HELLSTONE is not.

Krylo 06-07-2011 01:30 AM

Multiplayer servers spawn way more bone serpents water candle or not. You can get up to five on you at once.

Krylo 06-07-2011 01:31 AM

Also: They are common as fuck when you are trying to just mine up some hellstone or get some bricks for your entry way or whatever, but rare as a son of a bitch when you want to farm them.

Bone Serpents exist purely to troll you.

Thadius 06-07-2011 01:38 AM

Sorry, you'll have to speak up. The sound of my Sunfury killing things in two hits tends to drown out cynicism and vitriolic hatred. Along with the sound of the Flamelash, but that's merely because it's an awesome fireball spell.

Krylo 06-07-2011 02:52 AM

Still like Muramasa better, for the same reason I usually don't wear any of my armor.
 
/Assuming I don't have a Sunfury.

Krylo 06-07-2011 06:45 AM

The skyway now reaches over town, toast's tower, and out to the corruption. Starting to build the second tower over town.

Not really very far along yet, and this one will probably take me a few days, because it's going to take a lot of dirt and wood, and I don't keep stockpiles of either normally (and any wood stockpile I HAD went toward the skyway).

Aldurin 06-07-2011 11:26 AM

I would prefer if the skyway avoids my place (approx. 900's elevation) to the west of your tower. You can pass underneath it by a bit, if you need.

Krylo 06-07-2011 03:08 PM

Skyway is about 400 feet below where you built your place, so it shouldn't be a problem. Also I'm building out to the right first so you won't have to worry for quite awhile.

Aldurin 06-07-2011 03:34 PM

400 feet below is fine, especially since it leaves downward expansion as an option.
