Terraria serverUnveiling the Honey Dispenser: Acquisition and Use
Not every start in Terraria has the ready-to-go Honey Dispenser. Get to know how to get one and what crafting potentials it opens here.
- Obtaining the Honey Dispenser: There are two primary ways to acquire a Honey Dispenser:
- Chests with Loot: It is found inside the Ivy Chests, with 25% dropping chances, dropped from Ivy found in the Underground Jungle biome, namely inside the Living Mahogany Trees and Jungle Shrines.
- Steampunker NPC—A defeat of the Queen Bee boss, carrying out its summoning conditions (having a Mechanic in the world and carrying a Wrench in your inventory) will make the Steampunker NPC visit your world. The Honey Dispenser is sold by the Steampunker at the price of 0 copper coins and is, therefore, as good as available on the go if conditions are met for its procurement.
- Crafting with the Honey Dispenser: Works just like a regular crafting station would. Simply set it down on a workbench or any other surface used for crafting, then interact to get the crafting menu going. The Honey Dispenser exclusively deals with Honey Blocks, transforming them into a variety of unique furniture pieces.
A Sticky Symphony: Crafting with Honey Blocks
Honey Blocks are crafted of 4 Bottles of Honey in a square on a Workbench and form the basic component of anything you create in the Honey Dispenser. Here are the beautiful furniture options:
- Honey Furniture Sets: Placing the Honey Dispenser will let you craft the complete sets of Honey Furniture, containing all types of Beds, Sofas, Chairs, Tables, and Lamps. They have an aesthetic that is warm gold makes them perfect for use in any home styled with honey.
- Honey Block building. Other than a piece of furniture, the blocks themselves of Honey can be used for creative building purposes. Its unique golden color property, along with translucence in nature, is the best to build glazed honey windows, decorative accents, or even a building that will look like a honey structure.
- Functional Honey Dispensers. Not crafted out of the box, it is still possible to craft a functional honey dispenser that will dispense honey from your game. With a more complicated recipe, including sticky Bombs, Pistons, and the new Honey Blocks, players will have the opportunity to craft functional Honey Dispensers. It allows you to automate the mechanism for collecting honey.
Beyond the Basics: Tips and Tricks for Honey Dispenser Mastery
Here are some additional tips to get the most out of your Honey Dispenser:
- Honey Farming: Well, since Honey Blocks are one big requirement in crafting a Honey Dispenser having a good source of honey is an issue here. Using Bee Hives is a great idea to set up apiaries for guaranteed honey supply.
- Aesthetics and efficiency: Honey furniture gives a beautiful aesthetic, but remember that honey blocks don't have the same structural integrity classic construction supplies have. Just use honey furniture for non-structural elements.
- Creative Inspiration: It means that a honey dispenser opens the way for creative construction. Use honey blocks and furniture to build what only your imagination tells you to: from houses to shops in the style of honey bees, from honey baths to even palaces of honey castles!
