Containing the Corruption on Legendary Mode (GetFixedBoi) is not that hard



A guide to properly containing Crimson or Corruption on Legendary Mode / GetFixedBoi
May or may not be useful to you, personally. I wish I knew before my 70 hours playing this seed.
Also, I heard some criticism of my subtitles overlapping with in-video text, so I tried to avoid that in this video.

    i know its a main game mechanic but like… biome spread should have a toggle or a way (like a moon lord drop) that removes it
    its not fun and its just stressful busywork in an otherwise fun game and by far the worst part of terraria

  5. Galaxy 5 on

    The Getfixedboi main terrain generation is also in dontdigup.

    So the same applies to Dontdigup, its just that purifying evils outside of rather inneficient shimmering of evil powder to make purification powder is Innacesible in-game outside of bring Ing clentaminator from other world (which can count as cheating).

    Anyway in Dontdigup / Everything the spread of contaigous biomes unlike other's is rather predictable as unlike other words when world is transferred to hardmode theres no "V" shape forming, only thing that forms is the massive "I" shape of Hallow at the side of Jungle and where Shimmer is.

    So prevention on DDU/Zenith seed is easiest just quite lenghty process, but fixing the problem is near impossible, in contrast to other worlds where prevention is almost impossible due to unpredictable nature of the (Undeground) Hallow and the new Evil & Undeground Evil Biome. The prevention works best in existing spots of evil biome though.

    Otherwise the entire world of dontdigup / Zenith is essentially rectangle only flanked by evil biomes / with Jungle side being hallow in hardmode and top being evil.

    In normal worlds, I like quarantining the world evil (including Hallowed) to prevent the spread, especially on the surface, and my future self really thanked my past self for that. I was not worried about the world evil spreading at all, even if it was happening underground and building NPC houses was a more convenient task.

    What I love about this seed is that it takes all your Terraria knowledge, and makes you truly think.

    Ok, so you know this much. So if we turned the world on its head, it's still the same thing, but how would you approach it now?

  18. Ezren_ on

    There is one way the evil can get in that you missed; if the evil on the jungle side has already infected part of the jungle during world generation, the hallow won't cover it.

  19. Shibainu25 on

    Personally, even though I usually don't really do much about the evil biomes in a regular world, just the mere fact that the two ways of purifying the evil are completely removed scares me away from trying to beat the game. I get that it's to recontextualize EVERYTHING you know about the game and all, but couldn't Relogic have made the clentaminator a post-moon lord craftable or something involving the Shimmer. Once you beat the game, the next logical step is to get rid of the evil biomes and take back your world before leaving it for good.

    recently i discovered a way to contain the evil biomes which you can do in 3 easy steps:
    step 1: get wood
    step 2: find the place where the normal biomes and evil biomes meet up
    step 3: place a wood block in between the two biomes
    im not sure if this works against underground biomes but it works like a charm at containing the spread at surface level
    edit: be careful with the evil biomes vegetation growing and bypassing the wood block

    My drunk world seed was trolled by my friend in my first ever play through on console, when i was ready to enter hard mode, while killing the wall alone on multiplayer, they were placing crimson powder everywhere on the surface and in some parts of the underground so by time the wall was dead, it wasn't really drunk and more crimson. I had to make my spawn hallow since it can't really get infected in npcs don't mind, lucky for me i already had very large world size platforms made so bosses were possible up there and spawn, my jungle stayed pretty clean since the surface snow biome and the tiny chunk of corruption was blocking it, unlike other worlds ive done so far it was safe, the game progressed normally after and i haven't really cleansed it because the tiny bits of normal area are pretty safe. The world currently is around 60% crimson and the corruption and hallow being around 5%. Was definitely a fun and challenging playthrough to say the least.

    does the hardmode generation apply to regular dontdigup as well? currently playing through that seed cuz it's a cool concept but i'm not quite a masochist

  25. Christian0h on

    Thanks for the video on this, man! I don't really plan on trying to contain this though.. This whole seed is hell.. By the way, the MC music really does wonders for a video like this!

  33. TheColosiss on

    Or, build a bunch of artificial biomes with preserved resources.

    I usually just quarantine chunks I like and call it good. Then again, I'm no hard-core master. I only have a few hours to play here and there so I have to be efficient with my time.

  36. Jackson Percy on

    "Fortunately" my GFB seed had the snow biome right above spawn. I thought it was totally normal until I saw other people playing it and having a much easier time than I was.

    You can get purification powder however none the less in these worlds if you farm a ton of mushrooms and shimmer their powders. Took me and my wife 400 hours to do, but we purified a large getfixed boi seed with nothing but purification powder.
