What is a Wormhole Potion?

The Wormhole Potion grants you the ability to teleport to your team members. It’s valuable in multiplayer encounters against bosses, especially when restricted to a particular area like the Wall of Flesh battle. 

Fallen comrades can reenter the fray upon revival, but make sure they’re positioned close to the boss. Wormhole Potions have a chance to appear as drops from Pots and Slimes, but this only happens in multiplayer mode. 

You don’t actually need other players to be online for these potions to drop. Simply choose the multiplayer option, host the game, and you’ll be able to gather those potions for yourself.

Alternatively, gather 3 Bottled Water, 1 Specular Fish, and 1 Blinkroot, then combine them on an Alchemy Table or Placed Bottle. Wormhole Potions might surprise you as a bonus drop from Slimes, and solo players can craft it in single-player mode.

How to Use the Wormhole Potion in Terraria

Several players encountered an issue where their Minimap vanishes from their display. Not only were they unable to teleport using a potion, but it also failed them, even if they tried dropping it. 

To add to the frustration, hitting the teleport button yielded no results.

If you find that the Wormhole Potion isn’t working,  keep in mind that it only lets you teleport to your teammates, and the teleport will show up in a status message. If your Minimap is disabled, you can’t use Wormhole Potions. 

To get this done, open up the full-screen map (press “M” on the keyboard, “Start” on a PC controller, “Select” on PlayStation, “Back” on Xbox, and  “Minus” on Nintendo Switch). Once the map is open, locate the friend you wish to teleport to and tap on their icon.

1. Meteor Shot

The Meteor Shot is a Pre-Hardmode bullet you can start acquiring after defeating the Brain of Cthulhu or Eater of Worlds. Sometime during your gameplay, you’ll see a Meteor in the background, falling into your world. Start mining them and turn them into Meteor Bars and craft them into bullets.

With a gun, shoot upward. Meteor Shots can bounce off a solid block once. If something comes back, there’s a Floating Island above you.

2. Water Bolt

If you’re lucky, you might get the Water Bolt in a Pre-Hardmode Dungeon in Terraria. This elusive magic weapon disguises itself as many countless books on a Brass Shelf. Using the Water Bolt will fire a ricocheting water-ball projectile, albeit slowly.

We recommend doing the same method as using Meteor Shots. Shoot upward and wait for the Water Bolt’s projectile to come back. Remember that this method is a little slower.

3. Teleportation Potion

By this point, you probably figured out alternative ways to find a Floating Island. But if it’s not the case and you’re in Hardmode already, the Teleportation Potion will do. You can make one by combining Bottled Water, Chaos Fish, and Fireblossom each at an Alchemy Table or Placed Bottle.

If you use a Teleportation Potion while you’re on a Floating Island, there’s a higher chance you’ll be teleported to another one close by. It’s like the potion prefers to take you to similar places!

Note: Bring Magic or Ice Mirror in case things go south (i.e., getting teleported to the Lihzahrd Temple instead).

4. Spectate Mode

This method is simple – generate a Hardcore character, die, transform into Ghost, and fly to seek an Island.

5. Utilize Height

At times, Floating Islands that spawn at lower altitudes provide other ways to find them. Observe an Island’s waterfalls while in flight, and Dungeons and Living Trees expose Island’s base from their heights.

6. Wide Pillar

If you have a stack of Dirt or Sand, you can build a tall pillar straight up to check for Floating Islands. This method is challenging, as you’ll face Harpies (and worse, Wyverns), so consider equipping a Hook if you don’t have Wings!

7. Utilizing Rocket Boots & Ivy Whip

You can build a tall pillar using blocks. Once built, you can ascend high into the sky by using the Rocket Boots and an Ivy Whip for traversing to find floatings Islands.

8. High Game Resolution

One effective method to increase the chances of finding floating islands is by adjusting the game’s resolution settings, specifically to a higher value like 1920×1080, if your hardware supports it. To change it, just access the game’s settings menu, look for the video tab, and find the resolution tab.

9. Utilizing Wings and Spectre Boots

You have the option to construct a Sky Bridge, which is a lengthy structure elevated in the sky, typically consisting of a single layer of blocks or platforms. Once it’s complete, you can utilize your Wings and Spectre Boots to glide through the sky, significantly boosting your mobility as you jump from this sky bridge.

10. Gravitation Buff

If you have enough Gravitation Potions, you can use them to control your descent direction, making it possible to find and explore floating islands with efficiency. This effect remains active for 3 minutes.

11. Magic Missile

In Pre-Hardmode, utilize the Magic Missile to locate floating islands, adjusting based on the map’s dimensions. The missile produces a distinct sound that ceases upon being cast toward a floating island.

12. Musket Balls

In a small world with floating islands (about 400-600 feet high), using Musket Balls should work if you lower the music volume. Shoot the sky while moving, and listen for impacts and vine-breaking. If unsure, shoot from a similar angle and position. Avoid hitting from low altitudes. It’s a cost-effective strategy for anyone with a gun.

13. Ice Blade and Frostbrand

Projectiles can also help you locate Floating Islands. You just need to swing the Ice Blade and Frostbrand projectiles upward into the sky and pay attention. If projectiles hit a block, you’ll hear a shattering sound, helping you locate hidden islands.

14. Flying Carpet

The Flying Carpet is an item that grants you the ability to float for 5 seconds. To find a Floating Island with this, you just need to go to an elevated location on the map. Employ your flight boots to advance, taking breaks to prevent any upward or downward motion. Then, transition to a Flying Varpet to maintain forward movement while staying at the same altitude.

15. Water Puddles

Mysterious puddles on the ground might mean there’s a Floating Island above you. It happens in places where water acts strangely. These islands create more water than they can hold, so some spills over the edges and form puddles below.

16. Fairies

The Pink Fairy, Green Fairy, and Blue Fairy are creatures that aim to guide you toward valuable treasures. If you see a fairy on the ground, it could fly up to the sky and lead you to an island with a treasure chest. So always keep an eye out for this!

17. Cute Fishron or UFO Mount

An excellent way to find floating islands is by riding a Cute Fishron or UFO Mount. You get these mounts by defeating Duke Fishron in Expert Mode or a Martian Saucer. Then, fly in the sky and look for one Floating Island. Stay at that height while flying around the world to find more islands.

Keep in mind that this could be your final resort for finding these islands, as you’ll still need to face one of the challenging Hardmode Bosses.

Blend-O-Matic – Explained

The Blend-O-Matic is a crafting station in Terraria for making Asphalt Blocks, granting you enhanced speed when traversed. Moreover, walking on Asphalt Blocks also reduces the time it takes for you to come to a stop. 

Acceleration becomes even more potent when combined with other speed-boosting items like the Hermes Boots. Remember that this only affects players running directly on the Asphalt Blocks, leaving enemies, NPCs, and critters unaffected.

When you run on said blocks, you can achieve an impressive top speed of 53 mph by accelerating for around three seconds. This is a significant difference compared to the usual maximum running speed of 15 mph.

Such swiftness makes these blocks valuable for various purposes, from constructing Skybridges for collecting Fallen Stars to creating Arenas for Hardmode Terraria bosses.

If you’re aiming for better movement and strategic benefits, acquiring the Blend-O-Matic is a must!

Acquiring the Blend-O-Matic

Once he’s present, you can buy the Blend-o-Matic from the Steampunker for 10 Gold Coins. To acquire the NPC, you must defeat at least one of three Mechanical Bosses in Terraria. We strongly advise targeting either the Destroyer or the Skeletron Prime.

The Destroyer is a mechanical worm with varying health that doesn’t split into smaller segments – unlike its Pre-Hardmode counterpart. It shoots lasers if there’s space and releases Probes to attack when a part is destroyed. You can easily counter this enemy by equipping any piercing weapon or high DPS. 

Alternatively, you can go against Skeletron Prime – a more agile version of the Pre-Hardmode Skeletron. If the mechanical boss isn’t defeated before the night ends, it’ll target and likely kill you in one hit before despawning.

Is Terraria cross-platform?

Terraria is cross-platform between iOS and Android devices.

But here’s the thing – while you can play it on PC, Xbox, PlayStation, Nintendo Switch, iOS, and Android, cross-play is a bit limited. Unfortunately, party time is exclusive to mobile players.

Terraria cross-platform on Xbox & PlayStation

Cross-platform play might be a no-go on Xbox, PlayStation, Nintendo Switch, and PC. But don’t fret just yet! You can team up with other players on the same console.

For instance, PS5 and PS4 players can join forces like mobile gamers. So, while we can’t party across all platforms, let’s make the most of what we’ve got!

Special Property	Inflicts the Poisoned Debuff. Also releases a projectile when swung that chases enemies.

The Blade of Grass is a melee weapon in Terraria that can pierce enemies and autoswing. When using the melee weapon against enemies, you’ll inflict the Poisoned debuff, giving them a 25% chance of being poisoned for seven seconds.

This remarkable weapon throws a leaf-shaped projectile with green particle effects that deal damage equal to 25% of its base damage and can pass through a single enemy.

Its ability to automatically target nearby enemies within a radius of nine tiles is truly impressive. No need to worry about aiming precisely – this weapon’s got you covered! Additionally, it boasts +20 Armor Penetration, making sure that even well-armored enemies in Terraria will feel its sting.

Blade of Grass Recipe

Materials	Crafting Station
• Jungle Spores (15 (desktop, mobile, console) / 12 (3DS, old-gen consoles))  • Stinger (12 (desktop, mobile, console) / 15 (3DS, old-gen consoles))  • Vine (3)	Iron Anvil / Lead Anvil

Stingers are abundant in the Underground Jungle, where killing Dragon Hornets (50%), Hornets (66%), Moss Hornets (16.67%), and Spiked Jungle Slimes will yield the material. Expect higher drop rates if you play on Expert Mode and Master Mode, where Hornets and Spiked Jungle Slimes always guarantee the reward.

While exploring the same location in Terraria, you may encounter glowing green Jungle Spores. These are harmless, and you can destroy them. The final ingredient – Vines – is a drop from Man Eaters (50% (Classic) / 100% (Expert & Master)).

Item Upgrade

You can upgrade this weapon to a Night’s Edge. Through normal gameplay, you’ll encounter evil biomes, Dungeons, and the Underground. Spending some time in each location allows you to obtain the following materials:

Result	Materials	Crafting Station
Night’s Edge	• Blade of Grass (1) • Blood Butcherer (1) / Light’s Bane (1)  • Muramasa (1)  • Volcano (1)	Crimson Altar / Demon Altar

Tips and Tricks

The enemies that drop Stingers, like Hornets and Spiked Jungle Slimes, become rarer in their spawns. However, the Moss Hornet became more prevalent, even though it doesn’t drop Stingers (3DS, old-gen consoles).

Nevertheless, the sword remains an impressive weapon in Terraria, ranking as the second-largest sword you can wield in the pre-Hardmode phase, only surpassed by the Volcano.

What is a Mechanical Worm

The Mechanical Worm is an item used for summoning the Destroyer in Hardmode, although it still works when brought to a Pre-Hardmode world.

The Mechanical Worm works outside of the Corruption, unlike the Worm Food. However, you can only use the former at nighttime, while the latter can be used anytime. When used by day, the boss won’t appear nor consume the Mechanical Worm. Using it when the Destroyer is already summoned doesn’t do anything.

How to Craft a Mechanical Worm

In Hardmode, if the Destroyer is undefeated, the chances of enemies dropping this item are 0.04%, excluding statue-spawned enemies, Meteor Heads, and Old One’s Army enemies.

Alternatively, combine the following items at a Mythril Anvil or Orichalcum:

• Rotten Chunk (6) / Vertebra (6)
• Iron Bar (5) / Lead Bar (5)
• Soul of Night (6)

Crafting

The Mechanical Worm is a key component in making the Ocram’s Razor – a boss-summoning item that spawns the Mechdusa in Get fixed boi and Don’t dig up world seeds.

Result	Ingredients	Crafting Station
Ocram’s Razor (desktop, mobile, console)	• Mechanical Eye (1) • Mechanical Skull (1) • Mechanical Worm (1)	Mythril Anvil / Orichalcum Anvil
