- Part 37 of our series investigating your myths and questions about Terraria: Journey's End. Thank you for the overwhelming amount of myths and creative ideas, we couldn't do this series without you. This episode is dedicated to shimmer, the new liquid that arrived with Terraria 1.4.4. (the shimmer special, if you will). It's by far the coolest part of the update, and also extremely broken in many, many ways...

For a ranger build (or starwrath, technically) it might actually be a good idea to make an arena with a thin floor of shimmer at the bottom. Missed bullets traveling downwards can get another chance
Interesting idea.
Maybe you can encircle the whole arena with shimmer in bubble blocks and that way ensure bullets aways bounce back.
@@DwAboutItManFr The video shows that shimmer only reflects bullets from above.
but first you will suffer from angler
Hey, that's not a bad idea!
This just reminds me of all the times I fell through the hellevator so fast that the game didn't load fast enough and I got stuck in random ash blocks. Now, with the new liquid, it's actually canon!
It’s not a bug, it’s a feature
Its because you can't phase in the underworld
Just so you know there's actually a bottomless bucket of honey now. Also the shimmer invincibility could be used in co-op I guess to keep bosses from despawning, one player fights it while the other just keeps it active when they die.
im using this in one of my runs with my friend now thx
Ahhhh wise idea
And the one player outside can free the other, afterwards.
you could do an alt trick to do this too by just having like another computer or somethin.
could make for a challenge idea: terraria but bosses dont despawn sounds cool
That or one person plays summoner XD
As a note about not having the Portal Gun after the Moon Lord fight: Since you get the drops at the end, you can open the bag (which was shown to be possible) and move it to your hotbar. So the strategy should actually work even without having previously killed Moon Lord on that character, because you get the Portal Gun as a drop anyway lol
Works only for Moonlord though for every other boss only exit.
Man Calamity gonna have a field day with shimmer immortality machine to ensure that you cant just AFK all their bosses
@@exploertm8738 Calamity devs: NEW UPDATE! Shimmer now post SCal! Aether biomes now generate with regular water but it's purple.
All shimmer items massively buffed to do 9999999 damage by clicking an enemy
@@exploertm8738 Bosses now deal dmg when in shimmering state to prevent that
How do you feel after Re-Logic replaced you with a wand of frosting ?
Actualy added a frosting one. Sparking is still here
@@Canari_garde yeah but frosting is slightly better
@@RoxGamingPL4080 plus it inflicts a "better" debuff
I imagine that they're happy to have found their long lost cousin
No you see, me personally i wouldn't take that
You could use daytime sensors to release you from the shimmer at dawn, which would be useful against night bosses.
Sadly, this no longer works. It was patched. Mainly because it was a good cheese for the Empress of Light. No other mobs can hit you, but I believe all bosses can.
Throw the Star Cloak into Shimmer, you'll get Chromatic Cloak which makes you immune to shimmering. You can hold down while wearing it to shimmer normally. I think that's the solution for the softlock setups.
Thanks for the tip! I already have a star cloak, all I have to do is find a patch of shimmer.
@randomguy9777 thank you, a random guy from the internet from 9777
@randomguy9777 Can you equip it as you're shimmering though?
Yah does it actually work? Cuz once you press down to shimmer there is no going back, he was using the cloak in the video btw
@@disguisedcat1750 Yeah I'm pretty sure you're right, all this does is allow you to choose when you want to enter the softlock. I don't think it provides an option to manually stop shimmering once it's started.
With this shimmering effect, adventure map creators can create the no clip into the backrooms epically
myth: with the new sundial which skips daytime, eye of cthulhu can stay throughout the day night cycle
he already tried this
He hasent tryed it out with the upgraded sundial the one you get when you trow it in the shimmer lake
@@Gh3ttoboy Moondial or Lunardial, I think.
@@smashbrolink Enchanted Moondial, actually a pretty fun fact to check out in my opinion
It doesn't skip it, it just speeds it up considerably. So day still happens, and all the events that go with it, including bosses despawning/enraging.
What if you did the fishing test but with the new Star Cloak upgrade (throw the star cloak in shimmer and you get a different cloak that can let you swim in shimmer without shimmer phasing)
That doesn't work, unfortunately.
I think you get pulled in, but I haven't checked
Or maybe fish in the underworld since shimmering is disabled in there
It still phases you.
I tested it and it still doesn't work
Reflecting the nimbus rod the way it does means it might make semi-afk farms better, since you either no longer need to place the clouds high up or you can double the amount of rain projectiles in the line
doubling the density does nothing due to the nimbus' I-frames
@@MagicGonads I’ve had several enemies manage to dodge through the rain in my older farms; my comment is less about the density and more about making it a continuous wall
@True DrPepper no that refers to damage dealt per source/weapon (per target) not per projectile
Actually, it would be fun to see Shimmer's buoyancy implemented to regular water, where items and projectiles float on it.
Would probably work as an accessory
Small headcannon: they knew about shimmering into the lizhard temple, but they didn't do anything about it Because of the 3 platforms trick.
you can just use rod of discord to get there too which can be obtained before any hardmode bosses so I don't think they care
@@Chomkin It’s disabled before Plantera is defeated.
And because you can’t get the bottomless shimmer bucket until after moonlord is defeated
you have to pump the shimmer from the pool to above the temple to access it early. if you want to use the shimmer method.
@@goofyahdemoman1134 btw, do the rod of harmony work?
Btw, the "The Wand of Sparking" and the "Wand of Frosting" gets an incredible buff in the new "Everything Seed" I don't know if it's a bug or not, but it would make an cool video. It buffs the total damage from 17 to around 45+\-, so it's really broken
It's not a bug, its a feature of the new upside down seed, which is included in the everything seed. The upside down seed reverses the progression points of some items, such as the key blade being sold by the traveling merchant with nerfed stats and the katana being dropped by dungeon enemies with buffed stats. I think the wand of sparking is swapped with the magic dagger that drops from mimics. So wand of sparking is buffed, but it also only drops from hardmode mimics now.
Is rod of harmony a new item? I got it after drowning my rod of discord in the shimmer water
@@unamedzube7xb297 Of course it is. It's the rod of discord but without the chaos state debuff being applied to you after you use it. It can only be converted post-ML though, so you won't be able to cheese bosses with it until you defeat moonlord
Another amazing video! I really enjoyed this one, shimmer is such a cool mechanic, NOBODY predicted this would be the new liquid, or that it would even REMOTELY be such a game changer, but after watching your video, I have a whole different level of respect for the stuff!
One like and a heart from WoS
The Portal Gun Station can get you out of the Infinite Shimmer if you have it setup on a timer. Or maybe you can interact with Switches while Shimmering and activate it manually
the reason that shimmer doesnt let you go further in the underworld is probably because of out of bounds
would it be possible to shimmer out of bounds on the sides of the map with enough momentum instead?
@@diogoayres7953 i dont think you can move sideways while shimerring
@@tlank7933 but you keep momentum for a short amount of time while submerged
your comment got liked 69 times
Same with the grav potion since the top of the world exists.
I like how relogic nerfed more stuff, but also added a liquid that can be abused with summoner weapons to kill basically every boss. (Though a better summoner weapon would be needed for bosses that stay for a limited amount of time.)
WHAT DID YOU DO TO ADAMCHROMEE AND TITANCHROMEE?!?!
@@Master_Chef Have you watched the video?
@@Master_Chef Have you watched the video?
@@Master_Chef Yes but HAVE YOU WATCHED THE VIDEO?
@@Master_Chef what about now? HAVE YOU WATCHED THE VIDEO?
Can you deconstruct any crafted item? Because you could then hypothetically dupe potion ingredients by deconstructing potions since with an alchemy station, there is a chance that you don’t consume ingredients.
And since you can do stacks of items at once....infinite potions, infinite ingredients..... infinite money
I'm guessing that the solution will be to give potions the same chance to have no ingredients when uncrafting, which will basically turn it into an in-game gambling system, trying to get a net gain on ingredients.
@@theapexsurvivor9538 Which basically prevents it altogether in the long run.
@@theapexsurvivor9538 that is how it currently works, correct.
They patched it
I wonder if shimmer could act like a really weird niche way to dodge attacks and even try to be used in multiplayer combat somehow, like the Fishing example where you phase through immediately even using a small puddle
Kinda like how in Minecraft they utilize End Crystals as a weapon
enemies in shimmer dont disappear for good, theyre still there, just invisible and they cant hurt you until they get back out of the shimmer. theyll slowly reappear and can damage you again right away
Real ones, sure- but you saw the test he did. It looks like Trophy ones don't play by the same rules.
@@Staurcomb Even regular Skeletons have a bone throwing attack they can use in the Shimmer I believe, it was really annoying while I was trying to farm for Undead Miners which happened to spawn very frequently near my Aether biome lol
@@Staurcomb Ah, sorry, didn't know about the difficulty exclusivity. I basically don't play on any difficulty below Expert anymore because of the better drop rates/exclusive items lol, my bad for not fact checking that
@@roshibomb4247 Expert only, but yes
Skeletons throw bones
Could you right click a switch or lever while in the endless portal shimmer? If so, you could set it up to pump away the shimmer once the Dungeon Guardian is dead.
I actually tried that, you can't unfortunately
@@WandofSparking Myth: You can fly the new drone while shimmering, which can then trigger the entity pressure plate.
@@WandofSparking could you right click a Pylon on the map to get out of the softlock?
@@WandofSparking Have a wide enough platform, and move to a pressure plate activated self-destruct/teleporter while shimmering (if you can even trigger pressure plates while shimmering)
@@augigauki im pretty sure you dont need to click the pylon, you just need to be near it, so theoretically this could work
Myth: You can use shimmer to block boss and creature projectiles, and their arrow-like projectiles function the same as normal.
Try standing inside shimmer with the shimmer cloak or whatever it is called.
4:55 These clouds with the shimmer fluid could be very useful for arenas. No need to place the cloud up high when fighting bosses!
Mentioned this in your previous post, but the Kwad Racer's camera manipulation properties (in addition to infinite range unless you go to space) could make retesting previous myths a lot easier.
The shimmer doesn't do many things that can be done via other means. For the corrupt/crimson item conversion, that can be done by crafting in a graveyard (Ecto Mist). Some other things you might expect to be transmutations are instead functions of the new Chlorophyte Extractinator, like turning Gold into Platinum (though the converse can be done by both, since shimmer downgrades ore).
Corrupt/crimson item conversion can also be done by the Chlorophyte Extractonator!
@@CrabMushroom The ore yes, but not the accessories from shadow orbs/crimson hearts.
@@YOM2_UB fair enough, I just wanted to bring attention to this fact in case anyone unaware of the properties of the new machine stumbled upon this comment and thought the only way to convert them was through graveyard crafting
Shimmer doesn't convert ores into their alternate version, it downgrades them.
Myth: The new buff to Daytime EoL that bypasses dodges like Hallowed Armor can bypass Shimmer Invincibility
That's an important test.
If it doesn't bypass Shimmering, all we need is a more effective exit strategy, & we'll be able to cheese her to death.
Myth: The Dirtiest Block is immune to the yellow and white solutions when used with the terraformer. It isn't a real dirt block so it ideally shouldn't be converted into sand/snow.
With the shimmer and portal softlock set up, its an easy way to get the guide or any other npc to kill the DUNGEON GUARDIAN
Hmm, that's a fun idea with the nimbus rod rain bouncing off the shimmer. It would be insanely useful for fights in early hardmode like The Destroyer or The Twins. Or the arrows. Storing them up and using them against WoF could be really useful is a couple of challenge runs.
When I think of Aether I think of MP2 as well! Im a HUGE Metroid Prime fan with MP1 being my favorite 3D game of all time, but you are absolutely right in saying MP2 is CRIMINALLY underrated!
What would be cool to see is if you can easily cheese daytime Empress of Light using the invincibility it gives you.
my guess is that this would not work as in the new update EoL no longer does a couple tens of thousands of damage but instead just kills you like trying to teleport home while wall of flesh is spawned.
@@Penrosian Oh, that's interesting. I guess you're right.
It used to work, it got patched and now you are invincible to anything but bosses
When night-time falling stars hit the shimmer, they also reflect - not just the ones from starfury and star wrath. I was goofing around with a huge pool i had made and i made the discovery
I wonder if that also happens in the Don’t Dig Up seed, where falling stars don’t generate any items you can pick up and instead hurt the player.
Your prob not the first to discover it
I’ve been looking forward to a Shimmer myth buster since I first saw the liquid lmao
So you're completely invincible while in shimmer, and you can make an infinite shimering machine, and you can escape it holding a portal gun...
Time to beat daytime EoL before it gets patched!
This liquid could make quite the cheesing for bosses, on every platform get a shimmer and activate auto-pause, you get the i-frames and you can safely talk to the nurse due to autopause. Just make sure you have a quick way out
I just realised that shimmer increases the beastiary even more, making the universal pylon even harder to get.
It does not!
It only adds like 2 new enemies
@@NamePending878 it isn't even in the bestiary
@@fasty93 it will be eventually
@@Master_Chef it's the same NPC's tho, just reskinned
can you make a world completely softlocked by closing off spawn in a shimmer chamber with teleporters, so you can't just log back in? to add to that, can you put a bed inside of one of these chambers? if so, this would be a devious prank to pull on a multiplayer server, on another players bed.
I think that would just delete some of the shimmer when you spawn, this once happened to me with some water on console.
Blocked spawned just get deleted 😂
@@genericcatname9159 it used to be like that but as of 1.4 the game tries to put you as close as possible but puts you inside blocks if there's no available space vertically
the shimmer portal combo is the definition of the aboslutely safe capsule from starbound: you cant ever die but you are stuck forever
Dont you mean earthbound/mother 3?
Myth: The Aether biome/being near Shimmer increases the spawnrate of "rare" mobs, I found a ton of Undead Miners and Nymphs near my Aether but almost none anywhere else
They'll possibly patch it so Shimmering stops during Boss fights, and maybe events as well, especially because of the softlock potential. If an event could stop the Shimmering effect, that would guarantee you can EVENTUALLY be freed without having to leave the world
That'd be lame, but oh well
boring
I think the most likely patch is either for them to remove the ability to use Teleporters while Shimmering, or give Shimmering a flat time limit of like five to ten minutes. That'd fix all the softlock problems without messing up creativity too much
Myth: items with different ways to craft them (like Spectre boots from Flurry, Hermes, or Dunerider) will split into the things used to make that specific item.
Researched items
I wonder if there is a way to softlock yourself by perpetually forcing a player into shimmer
EDIT: I should have watched further in the video before commenting lol
happens to the us
Now that guide vodoo dolls are stackable:
Mith: you can spawn 2 walls of flesh if you have 2 guides in your world and throw 2 stacked dolls into lava
For that shimmer moonlord contraption, why not use the thing that activates when it is day, or the one that is active when is night
You could kill moonlord with terraprisma in the span or a morning if timed well
Actually, some of the conversion (crimtane -> demonite and vice versa) can work with the new Chlorophyte Extractinator
I'm not 100% sure, but I think the flavor text for shimmering is a reference to Space Balls.
"They've gone plaid!"
Your choices in background music are amazing... Zora's Domain fits perfectly with the shimmer concept
A good exit strategy could be that one cloak item that's meant to give you more control whilst shimmering?
The cloak just makes you immune to the debuff
@@eggs8021 I think the debuff is the thing thats causing you to not use items
@@dapurpleoctipie9824 The debuff is what makes you clip through, I was just saying that it doesn't give you more control while shimmering, it makes you not shimmer at all
@@eggs8021 you can hold down to shimmer while wearing the cloak
@@NamePending878 didn't know that, neat
Given that you can get the loot, and then save and quit, I'm thinking shimmer based, teleporter based, dungeon guardian auto farm. Just need to shimmer through a portion of the temple that is sticking out to attract a new one every time you pass through....
You might be able to afk any boss with shimmer. It's crazy really.
Just killing the boss would be nice, but the ultimate idea would be to in the dungeon and trigger more guardians... and killing them.
This would actually be insane for boss arenas having a pool of this stuff surrounding the arena allowing bullets to constantly fly around the arena
A potential fix to the shimmer invincibility glitch is to disable shimmering while a boss is alive, as for the Lihzarhd Temple glitch there’s no point to fix that because 3 platform go brrrrrrr
What about items that can be crafted in multiply diffrent ways? What happens when you throw them into shimmer? (try with mechanical worm, and wood items)
Probably the default items
@@xenird what about Night Edge? It will turn into Lights Bane ir Bloodbutcher?
@@M_1024 not sure what the default item is for that. When you check the recipe it says shit like "any iron bar" and shows iron when lead also works. We should look what item is there.
Also might depend on your world evil but I doubt it because there are worlds with both.
Could be random as well lmao it's re logic they love fucking rng with the leaf wings getting destroyed and players being forced to rng grind harpies instead of casually buying for 1 plat and having good mobility in early hm
Xenird is right, it depends on the world's evil. I threw a Void Bag I made in a corruption world into shimmer in a crimson world, and I got tissue samples instead of shadow scales. I haven't tested it with other items though.
According to the wiki, putting desert torches into shimmer actually returns hardened pearlsand instead of a different sand item, allowing access to the hallow biome in pre-hardmode. This is likely to be an oversight, to be fixed
You may be invincible while shimmering, but can you regen life while doing it? And if so, what happens if you have the Shiny Stone equipped, will it provide its regen?
Terraria gets any new thing on an update and five seconds later it's already being used to break something else, I love this
You should try to see if you can click on a lever while shimmering, because that's a right click action. If you can do this, you might be able to set up dynamite to destroy the contraption, freeing you from the softlock.
If you can't, you can still set up a long clock of some kind that you can start before entering the shimmer setup. At the end of the timer, dynamite destroys the contraption and you're free.
Why dynamite and not actuators to open up a drainage system, with pumps set up to refill afterwards?
@@techpriestemily I didn't think of that, actually. Actuators might work better.
Myth: mine carts can be ridden into shimmer
I really hope they don't disable pumps. The shimmer looks so pretty, and you can make beautiful fountains with pumps
Post moo lord
@@zixvirzjghamn737 but why does pumping itself have to be post moonlord?
imo I think its fair as is. since moonlord gives you an infinite quantity. if you screw up somehow after pumping it, you wont have any aether left until then. You could either use it for decoration or to make a more convenient location. thats it.
@@iceneko9170 yeah but you can't use a bucket until post moonlord so it should be the same
@@zixvirzjghamn737 i disagree. bucket is the easy way. using a pump is much more convoluted.
wand of sparking hasn't done enough fishing quests to realise there is an infinite honey bucket now. Bumblebee tuna.
in regards to shimmering into the jungle temple, my friend did that in our 1.4.4 co-op world with two other friends. friend 1 spent 30g on a painting from the travelling merchant and friend 2 thinks the painting is ugly, so friend 1 and I had some fun placing it in hidden places. while F1 was busy keeping F2 occupied, i put down a wall of them in our Twins arena, and placed a few underground via teleportation potion. only much later, when friend 3 logged on, did we find out that he shimmered into the temple *specifically* to spam the painting all over every surface he could. what a legend.
in hindsight, i should have realized he was doing that sooner- he asked me where F2 couldn't see if i had any extra paintings, he was musing to himself in VC over how Shimmer acted when you moved it from the pool by removing blocks under it, and he got a Lizhard banner and said "they spawn outside the front door sometimes". that was a clever response, quickly enough i didn't think anything of it. the reaction from Friend 2 and 3 was priceless.
the painting was Yuuma, the Blue Tiger btw. now it's an in-joke to just say "YUUUUUUUMA" like that one jojo meme where Jotaro is yelling at Dio in their final showdown
Hands down shimmer is one of the best addition ever! I can't wait all the brokenness it will have.... Might be even more broken than the brokenest of all, the zapinator?
*Also, if the wand of frosting is not a reference to you,...*
Another Myth buster!
ITS A TIME TRAVELER
I love when the video has no audio so I could watch it in class good job mate
Projectiles acting like Kevin just sunk into Loot Lake.
I've been trying to build a town in the aether caves for quick and easy access to shimmer. It's pretty difficult when the enemies jump into the giant shimmer lake and turn invisible.
Falling stars bounce off the shimmer too, wonder how that looks with a world full of shimmer.
Also can you shimmer phase into the Lihzahrd Temple?
…I don’t even know how to respond to this.
@@thecyberrabbit1440 me neither
Myth: Since the magic conch shell teleports you to the furthest block away that isnt covered by water, you could use this to get out of bounds
Metroid was my fav game series on Gamecube! You just brought back so many memories
Imagine the DPS with the rain and shimmer combo
It won't be very high, since it has a lot of s.
myth: a grave will bounce forever in shimmer
another myth: if you throw a shuriken into shimmer it won't despawn
Myth: Using the Chromatic Cloak (obtained by throwing a star cloak in shimmer) will make you not shimmer through blocks unless you hold the down button
You can actually get hardmode items in pre-hardmode through shimmer.
Items include:
A stack of 3 desert torches -> Hardened pearlsand block & 3 regular torches
A Nazar -> The Megaphone
A Bezoar -> Adhesive Bandage
Similarly, if you're in a corrupt world, you can throw in a stack of 3 ice torches to get red ice blocks for crimson in pre-hardmode. Unfortunately, this only works one way and you can only get the corruption in a crimson world via dryad in hardmode.
So in 1.4.4 Guide Voodoo Dolls are now stackable, but when you drop them in a stack into lava, they also kill other NPCs too somehow.
My myth is: If you throw multiple unstacked guide voodoo dolls into lava on the same frame (using actuators or something), it will kill other NPCs too.
neat ! love your videos (and your background music choices)
I would have loved for the Shimmer Cloak (or whatever the shimmer version of star cloak is called) to let you phase through the ground at any time by holding down
It does
Shimmer is awesome, whenever I get excess potions I just toss them in and get the ingredients. It’s really cool with recall potions. Sometimes they give you the fish which can also craft wormholes
Mappy's already created a shimmer invincibility machine that you *can* get out of. :)
i think it would be cool if shimmer could be fished in, including its own quest fish, crates for pre-hm and hm, and unique fish. one way to lock shimmer fishing would be to treat it like how lava fishing is treated, where you need the correct setup to begin fishing (like maybe using Faelings as bait or using any bait with an accessory or fishing rod that enables shimmer fishing)
one thing i’ve noticed, if an enemy is submerged in shimmer, chlorophyte bullets will attempt to home in on them, but they still bounce, so they just skid off the surface of the shimmer, never reaching under it
Myth: If you fall into shimmer while affected by BoC's forced reverse gravity (Legendary mode), your character will glitch wildly
For that last "Shimmering" myth I wonder about several things:
Does the invincibility protect you from the Empress of Light with her instant kill attacks during the day?
Can you interact with Levers, Switches, Doors, Trapdoors, Beds, NPC's (Like the nurse?), and what about using a controller? Would a controller also mess with it too?
While in shimmer, and outside the underworld with The Tongue debuff, you still have the "Shimmering" effect. Does it protect you from being licked (I.E. WoF reaches end of map), and from teleporting out if the destination is covered in shimmer? Hopefully TEdit updates so you can test that first part out.
Myth:you can use levers while shimmering (it will allow you to prevent being soflocked when using portals/teleporters)
Cool! Thank you for telling us that the cool look is from glass blocks. I haven't played for a while now and asked myself if this was s new block : ) really good video, thank you!
myth: using the minecart upgrade kit (mechanical cart replacement), you can make queen bee dash along the entire world
I could see the invincibility softlock being used in multiplayer to prevent a boss from despawning. Set one player inside so that the boss always sees a player alive at all times, giving everyone else as many chances as they need to kill the boss
Myth: if the only patch of jungle grass in the world is on screen (in the underground layer) then once the final mech boss is beaten the plantera bulb will appear on screen
The broken holy water is the best name for shimmer💀
0:13 Shimmer on the moon... Lucy from Cyberpunk involuntarily flashed through my head, I absolutely don't know why.
5:00 myth: the rain bounces back if there's shimmer above it
would be really useful for farms
With the update the Starfury now goes through blocks as far as where your mouse is pointing, it makes it easy for me to look for caves when mining, however when I used this on the Shimmer the star will pass through all blocks, so when I did this I still had early game equipment and it manage to spawn a queen bee before I was even prepared to fight it lmao
Myth: If you're wearing the goldfish bowl on your head, you can drown while shimmer phasing
Shimmer is a cheese strat to get rid of a bad reforge without spending money, and constantly re craft it to reforge without spending money
The ability to break down items with shimmer can be immensely broken. The money gained from breaking down a copper pickaxe is greater than it costs to buy one from the merchant, therefore infinite money.
Myth: you can save the credit scenes with a empty music box after defeating moon lord.
Cool i didn't think anyone knew about Metroid Prime 2 Echos It's Criminally underrated.
You should try to do as many of these tests in one world as possible, then one day upload the world for others to play, it'd be so chaotic and messy lmao
Myth: If you unassemble an item with shimmer and then reassemble it, it will give it a new modifier, saving money from Goblin Tinkerer.
That shimmer moonlord fight was epic, I will give that a shot
Myth: Throwing Prismatic Lacewings into the water will make fairy’s. Love the video!
Sorry if this is on the wiki I didn’t look…
For the moon lord thing, I think he always drops a portal gun, and you showed with the plantera bags that you can open bags while shimmering, so you will be able to open the moon lord bag and get a portal gun, so that you will always have one.
