Line 259:
* [[Our Goblins Are Wickeder]]: Every once in a while you'll be warned that a Goblin Army is approaching. You'd be forgiven for dismissing this message as a non-threat, but in fact Goblins can be a serious threat to your life, your NPC inhabitants, and your clicking finger. Unless, of course, you have advanced equipment and increased max life.
* [[Overly Long Gag]]: The Goblin Army invasions can feel like this at higher levels. Spending an entire in-game day killing 150 (or more, depending on how many players are in your server; the maximum is potentially ''over 10,000'') Goblins of varying types comes off as more of a nuisance than an [[Oh Crap]] moment when they barely do much damage, even more so if your house is rather large, which can end up confusing the goblins since they try to target you first.
* [[Overshadowed by Awesome]]: There's plenty of great items in this game, but certain ones stick out above the rest, to the point it makes a lot of the others, while not being bad weapons, quite weak by comparison.
** Especially true for gold/platinum armor. It'll probably take a lot of spelunking before you gather enough of these rare ores to craft a full set. While it offers decent protection, it's inferior to most armor sets obtained through exploring the special biomes, such as the jungle. Patiently mining until you can craft gold/platinum armor is probably a waste of time, since you'll likely obtain a blatantly superior armor set not long after, once you tackle any of the unique biomes.
* [[Oxygen Meter]]: Clearly visible in the game and health begins to drain after you run out of air. It is possible to keep yourself alive with health items and having a large health meter for lengthy periods of time.
** With the [[Artificial Gill|Gills Potion]], the Oxygen meter appears ''above'' water instead of underneath. [[Too Dumb to Live|Don't use it unless you're underwater.]]
* [[Palette Swap]]: There are seven different versions of the basic Slime monster.
* [[Precision-Guided Boomerang]]: Represented in the game by the Enchanted Boomerang, Flamarang, and Thorn Chakram which supposedly have limited seeking ability for enemies. They are also capable of returning to the player through solid walls.
Line 280 ⟶ 282:
** Special mention goes to the Minishark and its upgrade the Megashark, which are fully automatic miniguns that shoot ''musket balls''.
** And also the wires and switches system, where it is possible to have a wall switch or timer that turns ''tiki torches'' on and off.
* [[Schmuck Bait]]: Go on, step into the dungeon, even though the old man NPC in front of it is telling you not to.
* [[Scratch Damage]]: Everything will do at least 1 damage.
* [[Segmented Serpent]]: The Eater of Worlds is the most dramatic of these, but there are others. All of the other worm enemies have multiple segments of varying size and HP, and to kill them, you have to destroy any one. This can prove difficult with Bone Serpents.
