Which Terraria Event Is The Most Annoying? #terraria

People love to complain about events being annoying in Terraria, and you can’t really blame them. But which event in Terraria is truly the most frustrating? I think the answer is actually pretty clear, the pirate invasion. The pirate invasion can appear at nearly any point in hard mode, oftentimes interrupting you while you’re focused on something way more important. On higher difficulties, like master mode, this can waste up to half an hour of your time. On top of this, the pirate invasion is possibly the most useless event in Terraria by far when it comes to loot. It doesn’t have the best weapons or accessories, and so all you really get out of the event is money. Getting 50 gold coins can be nice, but for most players, it simply isn’t worth the trouble of the pirate invasion.

Which Terraria event is the most annoying? Let’s talk about it.

  1. Lack of loot is the worst part of the pirate invasion.
    Goblin army gives shadowflame knife and bow which are good weapons.
    Pirates only give like 50-70 gold coins which you can just get by killing two mimics

  2. “Up to half an hour” ONLY HALF AN HOUR. Dude I’ll get pirates really early and struggle for an hour. Granted I’m playing on ftw most times but still

  3. Pretty sure the pirate invasion has an item that can make the Goblin tinkerer/any other thing you buy cost 20% less. Plus other accessories that are great for getting more money

  4. As a ranger main the pirates are great just because of the coin gun. And its not like in the 2000 hours I've played the game i have only ever gotten one in a legitimate playthrough.

  5. I dont know dealing with the Solar Eclipse was always nothing but a hassle for me. The event takes 15 mins, you cant sleep through it, and the only way to skip it is to have a enchanted sun dial which you need to do fishing quests for

  6. Or the goblin army when you're trying to get a musket or undertaker and you just reached 200 health, and they decide to spawn in the the next day

  7. Love it when you are doing a master mode playthrough and don't think to set up a lava volcano with a respawn point under it before hardmode and these guys show up on day 2.

  8. I remember one play through the pirates spawned immediately after i beat the wall and i haad to become ground hog so i can get the hardmode armors and weapons

  9. At least you get a lot of money during the pirate invasion. The goblin invasion can be more annoying when it's constantly spammed by the game in pre-hardmode where you have shitty loot.

  10. Nah bro, pirate invasion hasn't happened naturally for me for the last 5 playthroughs
    Solar eclipse is the worst because so many times have I had a solar eclipse, blood moon, and another solar eclipse happen back-to-back (this just happened)

  11. At least deeper in hard mode is really easy to just kill a lot of pirates and end it, the solar eclipse has to be the most annoying, after getting what you need from it every time it happens is a whole 12 minutes of annoying and strong enemies everywhere

  12. Pirate invasion can be awful, I’ve gotten one the day after entering hardmode before but for me without a doubt hands down it’s the solar eclipse!! I swear to god I get these at least one every five days or so. I’m just so tired of fighting it 😭😭😭

  13. In mastermod or higher you can get the black dot giving you a permanent flight option pre Mech wich is incredibly useful especially on get fixed boy where you will probably need a big arena for mechdusa

  14. I think something that makes this worse is that the Pirate NPC is also useless. At least with the goblin army, the event is easier and the Goblin Tinkerer is arguably the most useful NPC in the game, but the pirate is arguably the most useless. Honestly, removing the pirate invasion and the pirate NPC would barely take anything away from the game lol

  15. Yo the pirate invasion started legit 10 minutes after I got into hard mode and I was stuck trying to fight it for like 3 (irl) days straight. I kept leaving and rejoining because of how annoying it was 💔.

  16. The goblin invasion after I’ve already done it is the worst for me. Pirates suck, but it’s my favorite source of money in the game. Post mech goblins does literally nothing for me.

  17. I think you guys forget the Bloodmoon and Eclipse. Both of these are also events, not in the same way that Pirates are, but they can literally trigger at any point.

    Blood moon, less annoying, usually inside at night, but now you can't blame the guide for leaving the door open.
    Goblin invasion: Also annoying because they break your doors. (Idk if Pirates and Martians do that too).

    Eclipse? I'm sorry, you had plans in the morning? Well not anymore, now Mothra is going to divebomb your entire civilization, kill all your NPC's, and likely you several times as well if you're not prepared.
    Meanwhile, the rest of the ghouls and ghosts are assaulting your doors, keeping you from going outside. Unless you built a really big home, or have good gear, good luck.
    P.S: This can als trigger both before and AFTER a blood moon.

  18. Not even close to the worst because, Counter point, The Frost Legion. Not the Frost Moon, the Frost LEGION. An event so bad you forgot it exists. It has to be summoned by the player and it has only 3 enemies that drop 5-10 snow blocks and NOTHING ELSE. But if you want 100% Bestiary completion you NEED to do it
