Collectibles and completion
Optional discoveries, useful collections and completion goals in Terraria.
Spoiler notice: This guide discusses story progression or late-game content.
Retro-style game rather than a vintage console release. Starter advice only; recipes and progression details vary by platform and version.
Equipment collections
Organise equipment by function: mobility, defence, combat and utility. A rare accessory can also be an ingredient in a later combination, so check its crafting role before discarding it.
Decorations and trophies
Boss trophies, banners, paintings and other decorative finds give a base its history. Keep display collections separate from items needed for immediate progression.
Fishing and exploration
Different biomes and conditions support different finds. Record the source of a missing item and check your edition; a checklist from another platform or update may include unavailable content.
Use the edition note above when comparing a checklist with another release. Story completion, collecting and platform achievements are separate goals.
