  Is it me or did they make Eater of Worlds weaker and shorter than a long time ago? :o
  He seemed to die so fast with the Demon-series axe and was about 3/5 of the length I was expecting.
  
  Also, when did fire arrows start setting fire to things?
  I'd noticed this when I had started playing again a week ago but never wondered when that happened. xD
  It seems helpful for beginners fighting Eye of Cthulu since it hurts it as well as lightning it up. :p

  
  
  Last patch brought status ailments in. "On Fire!" is one of them~

  I kinda wanna play Multiplayer. xD
  
  It'd be more fun having someone to talk with while dying. :B

  Wish I could, but I'm stuck at school :U
  
  I love playing multiplayer on that game. Hardcore mode ftw.

  I plan on restarting on another world, again. This gaime is just too the same right now. Hardcore would probably just make it annoying -.-

  
  
  You have to remember the direction of Terraria is not like Minecraft, which is a whole lot more sandbox. Sure, the mining, crafting, and building elements are similar, but that's about it.
  
  Terraria, in my opinion, is about finding stuff, crafting stuff out of those stuff, then using those stuff to fight monsters in a "sandbox arena". It's always been like this, way before Minecraft's v1.8 Adventure update. The creativity side of Terraria is a bit limited, especially with the 2D plane. Version 1.06 was meant to add a bit more to that, in fact.
  
  But Terraria will always be combat-oriented first. Lots of tiered equipment, armor set bonuses, status effects, so many different weapons and enemies, etc. It does get boring if you're expecting anything besides combat and looking for/building stuff for combat.

  Eater of Worlds actually got buffed in 1.04.
  
  

  The Eater of Worlds now has Higher HP, Def and Dmg, making battling him more difficult.

  
  
  And in 1.05, Eater of Worlds will only fight you in the Corruption, so you won't have the safety net of your home or whatever safe place you have.

  I definitely would like to accompany you on multiplayer. x)
  
  We can go farming herbs and make artificial biomes!

  Well getting Fireblossom was a pain. D:
  
  It's so tiny and inconspicuous when it's not blooming, I cut down like 8 before I noticed one and waited for it to grow and bloom. :V
  Well now I've started growing them. :P
  
  Obsidian Skin potions here I come. :D

  Timeskip? :o
  
  And yeah Deathweed is a pain to get to bloom.
  Blood Moons aren't that common. :[
  
  Also I am having fun with Mana Regeneration potions and Demon Scythe. xD
  Also since Regeneration Potions aren't affected by Potion Sickness, I wonder why you'd ever use a Mana Potion. xD
  Demon Scythe + Mana Regeneration Potion + Magic Power Potion + Meteor Set = Dead Bosses. :D

  Question: How far down do you have to dig to start finding a decent amount (for armor and tools) of copper and iron? The surface I have only found enough for 2 ingots worth of iron. :(

  I found enough just skimming the surface and natural caverns while I was looking for herbs. :o
  But the chests I found while exploring usually had quite a few iron ingots in them, among other things.
  
  On a similar note, I went straight from Iron Armor/Silver Bow to Demon Armor since I began fighting Bosses at that point. xD
  I recommend gathering up Lenses and exploring the Corruption for Demon Altars. 6 Lenses = 1 Cthulu Summoning Item.
  
  Oh, anyways, explore those natural caves that form when the world is created and look about for iron and such, as well as chests and Heart Crystals.
  You need a hammer to break them, though.

  About some meters below the transition from "surface" to the first half of the underground (where the background walls are still brown dirt, but have rocks in them).
  
  When you hear the BGM change from the surface to the underground, you're at a good starting depth.

  Had the inspiration to build a castle, still not finished yet.

  If you guys want a quick multiplayer session, my friend will be hosting her server tomorrow, though I don't know what time she'll be hosting. She has homework and all that.
  
  I will update with network information when she gets her server all ready.
