The player may also battle bosses that utilize a number of different combat mechanics and can drop rare items. The player can fight against enemies with swords, flails, bows, guns, magic spells, whips, yoyos and summoned minions. The player can encounter many different types of enemies in Terraria, the occurrence of which depends on several factors including time, location, and random events.
Several advanced items in Terraria require multiple crafting operations where the product of one recipe is used as an ingredient for another. For example, tables or other items can be crafted at a workbench, bars can be smelted from ore at a furnace, and armor can be crafted at an anvil. The player uses resources to craft new items and equipment at an appropriate crafting station for that recipe.
Some resources may only be found in certain areas of the map, stored in common and rare containers, or dropped by certain enemies. The player begins with low health and mana, which can be increased by finding certain items. Many resources, such as metal ores, can be found while exploring caves. The game's world is made up of several layers of tiles that the player can interact with and modify. The game starts in a procedurally generated world, with players starting out with a few basic tools and a non-player character (NPC) guide to get them started.
