Sandbox games combine elements from genres that are distinct from each other. They provide the player with complete freedom of action until the construction of a house and the killing of bosses. Most actions require some resources that the player obtains in the process of exploring the world. In projects like Terraria, one of the key actions is to find and mine ore. This search is complicated by the fact that monsters and other inhabitants of the underworld will attack the researchers. Often, a player has to run in the balance of death to get the desired ore for his own needs. Ore and rare stones are commonly used in the creation of weapons and armor, which are necessary for survival.
Orichalcum ore
After defeating the boss Wall of Flesh, the world goes into hard mode. New monsters and bosses appear, new opportunities for crafting and building open up, the game becomes much more complicated and interesting. Hardmod mode is a mandatory step for passing Terraria (it means killing all the bosses).
In order to stay alive at the initial stages of this regime, it is necessary to equip tightly with new armor. Depending on what kind of world you have - with distortion or with a krimzon, it is necessary to destroy the demonic or bloody altars that you have seen more than once in unfriendly biomes. They are destroyed with the help of the “Nagibator” obtained from the Wall of Flesh.
It is enough to destroy the three altars so that all the necessary ores appear in the game (the type depends on distortion / Crimson zone):
- The destruction of the first altar gives cobalt / palladium.
- The second altar is mithril / orichalcum.
- The third altar is adamantite / titanium.
Ore search
We ask ourselves: “Where to look for orichalcum ore in Terraria? After the destruction of the second altar, new ores will be introduced into the earth. Accordingly, the orichalcum will be in the world where there are crimsons. Orichalcum ore appears most often in the stone layer and below, not including hell The ore has a purple color, which makes it easy to distinguish it from all other deposits. Unfortunately, the ore gives in to the tool with 110% of the extraction force or better. The ore is mined using a palladium pickaxe or drill.
What is it for?
Players will always melt the ore of ore ore into ingots to craft armor, tools and weapons. The first item is to make the orichalcum anvil, since it is only possible to craft equipment from the orichalcum on it. On the same anvil objects are created to call mechanical bosses. An anvil can serve as an analogue of a mythal anvil.
