To get a Truffle Mount, you need to obtain a Scaly Truffle, a Hardmode mount-summoning item that summons a Pigron Mount, allowing you to fly for a limited time and run faster on land, which can be obtained by fishing in the cavern layer of an Ice biome overlapping a Hallow, Corruption, or Crimson biome in Hardmode. The Scaly Truffle is a rare item that can be caught while fishing in the specified biomes, and it’s a crucial step in acquiring the Truffle Mount.

Frequently Asked Questions

General Questions

  2. How do you get the Truffle to move in?: To get the Truffle to move in, there must be a vacant House in (or near) a Surface Glowing Mushroom Biome, which does not generate naturally and must be manually created.

Truffle-Related Questions

  2. How long does it take for the Truffle NPC to move in?: The Truffle NPC will only move in during Hardmode, in a surface-area Mushroom biome, and some of his items require you to defeat Plantera or any/all mechanical bosses at least once.
  3. How rare is it for a Truffle Worm to spawn?: On Mushroom grass, each enemy spawn has a 2/3 chance of being a mushroom-themed enemy or critter, and each time this happens, there is a 1/7 chance that the mushroom-themed character is a Truffle Worm.

Mount-Related Questions

  2. Which is harder, Golem or Duke Fishron?: Duke Fishron is significantly more difficult than most Hardmode bosses and will generally require post-Golem gear.
  3. What does the Cyborg sell in Terraria?: The Cyborg is a Hardmode NPC vendor that sells several “high-tech” items, most notably rocket ammunition for launcher weapons.

NPC-Related Questions

  2. What does Duke Fishron drop?: Despite being a relatively difficult Hardmode boss, Duke Fishron only drops Lesser Healing Potions.
  3. How do I prepare for Duke Fishron?: To prepare for Duke Fishron, players should build an arena in the Ocean biome with roughly 3-5 platforms, around 50 tiles apart, due to the height of the Sharknados and Cthulhunados.

Game Mechanic Questions

  2. What is the max enemy spawn rate in Terraria?: The default max spawns is 5, meaning a new enemy can only be spawned if the sum of the NPC slots of all current active enemies is lower than 5.
  3. How do you Respawn a dead NPC?: If an NPC is killed, they will respawn after a delay, as long as a suitable vacant House is still available, and if the NPC has an inventory or population requirement for their initial spawn, that has to be met again for the respawn.
