Terraria, but I can only use half of the items…



This is a weird idea, but I thought it would interesting if every item in Terraria had a 50/50 chance of being useless. Basically …

  1. i undestand if you wouldn't do it because of the challenge being too similar, but maybe once you are done with this run, you could try an "reverse" one, where the forbiden item become allowed and vice versa ? i think it would be interesting to see the other side of the coin.

  2. For your rules over allowing 50% allowed crafted items, its a good choice.
    I dont think watching you di a playthrough without progressing much or nit beibg able to use interesting ideas would just take away from the charm.
    As for the shimmer thing, youre not crafting items with it youre destroying items sooooo
    It could be an easy exception. And i think the novelty of using weird tools and shimmer would make up for having a slightly more loose ruleset

  3. Actually you can craft beds per your own rules assuming that exactly 50% of components being allowed is permissible (That line in the spreadsheet "Ideally get it as close to 50% is possible" suggests that it is). While the sawmill is banned, not every bed is crafted at a sawmill. The living wood bed for example could be the easiest bed to obtain if you're able to track down a living loom. If your world for whatever reason doesn't have one then neither the solidifier or slime blocks or the resulting slime bed are banned. If I've misinterpreted the crafting rules you're still not completely out of luck. Only the pink version of the dungeon bed is banned and your dungeon is blue so you can just steal one from your dungeon.

    I also noticed that the apprentice and master baits are allowed. It'd take an ungodly amount of luck but with enough worms from cans you might be able to achieve bait self-sufficiency off of biome crates (Gold and platinum crates are both banned, go figure.) and angler quests. However, of the three fishing potions of course you had to roll "NO" on the sonar potion and only the sonar potion. Even worse is that while the tackle bag is allowed all three of its components have rolled "NO". So fishing… technically viable but the odds are comically stacked against you.
