How much Ebonstone for corruption?

To create an artificial Corruption biome in Terraria, you need at least 200 Ebonstone blocks, though using around 250-300 is safer to ensure the background changes and enemies spawn correctly, especially to make a functional fishing or farming area. Placing these blocks creates a designated area where Corruption spreads, allowing you to summon the Eater of Worlds or farm Corrupted items.

Can Reaver Shark still mine Hellstone?

No, the Reaver Shark can no longer mine Hellstone in current versions of Terraria (post-1.4 update) due to a significant nerf in its pickaxe power, meaning you'll need to defeat the Eater of Worlds/Brain of Cthulhu to get the Nightmare/Deathbringer Pickaxe to mine it. The Reaver Shark used to mine Hellstone but was nerfed to prevent skipping early boss progression, making it mostly useful for other pre-Hardmode ores now.

How many blocks to stop corruption spread?

To stop Corruption/Crimson spread in Terraria, dig a 3-block wide gap, but for true safety against thorny bushes and vines (especially in Hardmode), make it 4-6 blocks wide and line it with non-corruptible blocks like Wood, Clay, or Bricks to prevent grass/vines from crossing. A 3-block gap stops block-to-block spread, but thorny vines can grow 3 blocks, so a wider gap or lined barrier ensures containment.

How big of a gap to stop corruption in Terraria?

To stop Corruption (and Crimson/Hallow) spread in Terraria, dig a 4-block wide tunnel around your area and line it with non-corruptible blocks like wood, clay, or bricks to block natural spread; for surface areas with thorny vines, a wider 6-block gap is safer to prevent vines from bridging the gap, though filling the tunnel with uncorruptible blocks is the best method to guarantee safety, say forum users https://forums.terraria.org/index.php?threads/corruption-and-crimson-how-fast-does-it-spread./85237/ and gamers. The core principle is that corruption spreads up to 3 blocks, but thorny vines (which grow from corrupted grass) can reach 6 blocks, so a wide tunnel or barrier is essential.

What blocks can't be blown up in Terraria?

In Terraria, true "explosion-proof" blocks are limited but include Lihzahrd Bricks, Dungeon Bricks, and Hardmode Ores (Cobalt, Mythril, Adamantite, Chlorophyte). Other strong options are Obsidian, Hellstone, and altars, with player-placed blocks like Mannequins, Barrels, and Chests also resisting most blasts. For building, Lihzahrd Brick and Dungeon Brick are the toughest, while Hardmode Ores offer sturdy, renewable options, perfect for protecting builds from explosions like Skeletron Prime's.

What is the max HP in Terraria?

In vanilla Terraria, the maximum health is 500 HP, achieved by using 15 Life Crystals (to 400 HP) and 20 Life Fruits (to 500 HP) after entering Hardmode, while the Calamity Mod allows you to reach even higher, with sources pointing to a base of 600 HP (with Life Force Potion) or potentially over 1000 HP with mod-specific items.
