  1. My favorite part of the game in pre mech and finally getting into 1000 dps. It feels like I’m actually strong and not just fighting weak creatures.

  2. What i hate about it is the lack of flexibility you have, its like pre-boss but instead of being happy with every chest and every ore its just fighting enemies and mining only the best ore that you can mine with your pickaxe and only going for wings and that one or two weapons specific to your class that is actually viable for the mechs and i think that is what makes it bad compared to other stages if the game

  3. early hardmode is easily the most fun i have with the game, with the hardmode V and all the new enemies it almost feels like a fresh world to explore and you've got some work to do to get geared up again, but rather than being kinda slow, awkward and grindy like the start of the game you've got ok weapons, solid movement, all the tools you need, pylons to get around and knowledge of where everything is

  4. I will say personally I really like this stage of the game just because it's more challenging pre hard mode and it triggered a much more difficult state of the game and I just think that's a good idea because it has people thinking more cautiously again bouncy by this point in the game you're immune to knock back and immune to fall damage and then you have access to wings which is a huge buff

  5. early hm has so much progression and content compared to the plantera golem cultist portion. like if we had early hm levels of content for those three sections then the game would be so much better.

  6. Try playing archipelago and triggering hard mode from defeating the eye of chithulu 😅 thankfully I had some hard mode items at that point, but goodness that was hard for a while

  7. My very first time getting into hard mode was the day it released, and my friends and I had stumbled into it by mistake. Anyway, going into the first night, we get the warning that it's a blood moon. Friends and I aren't worried, we survived a TON of 'em. Head back to base, man the walls that have a lava moat in front and… We died. Quickly. And often. Especially since back then clowns' bombs would actually destroy blocks, so our walls meant nothing. Had to abandon base, and rebuild underground. But I never hated early hard mode.

  8. Early hard mode/mech bosses is genuinely my favorite part of the game because of the challenge coupled with fast paced progression. My only complaint is that once you get past the mech bosses it slows back down and gets easier again.

  9. I just got to this point like a day ago for the first time ever since I’m new, and I honestly enjoy it, I just have some problems with the “new enemies” but it’s a lot of fun so far, I was VERY wrong about Terraria at first, thought it was a Minecraft, turns out I was very wrong lol

  10. Imo terraria is a game of 30-40% skill and the rest is all just knowledge like if you know how to stomp mech your going to blaze through early hardmode and sure if a pirate invasion happens the instant you enter hard mode its kinda bad but still fine if you know how to deal with it.
