Can anyone give me a couple of pointers for a new player? things i should get, things i should build when i start a new world, that sorta stuff. Cheers.
A Home, first and foremost is vital to your survival. You need to build a home that is of sufficent size, (10x5 is pretty good) And be sure it is well-lit. most often i start out chopping down trees in the vicinity and building a home. Make sure you build a workbench after your shelter is built, cuz you'll need that pretty quickly. After that you need to enclose the back-wall of your shelter with walls. You do this by crafting with the workbench with wood, 1 Wood Block=4 Wood Walls. Afterwards, hunt some slimes so that you can make torches, And while your at it, build a chair/table and put them in your home. It will allow NPCs to move in and they are vital to your survival. oh and doors, always want doors. Once you have a decent fortress of wood built, you should go mining. personally i find it easiest to build a straight down 2 wide hole right in the middle of my house so that zombies wont go falling on my head during the night. Keep mining down till you find a cave system or some ore. The way the ore tiers work is Copper>Iron>Silver>Gold>Demonite>Hellstone>Meteorite>Cobalt>Mithril>Adamantite. But focus on Copper/Iron for now.
