The Best Beginner Friendly Terraria Seed
- Seed: thisisaverygoodseed
- World Size: Any
- World Evil: Any
As the seed name suggests, this is, in fact, arguably the best out of all seeds for newer Terraria players. Near the Spawn Point, there’s a giant Living Tree with four chests filled with good early-game loot. Inside, you should be able to find a Sunflower Mine Cart (which is incredibly rare) and the Finch Staff to summon flying minions to attack your enemies. With this weapon, you can keep your distance and smite enemies from afar.
Within the Living Tree, you can build an impenetrable fortress for yourself and your NPCs, with the prebuilt caverns providing adequate housing and storage space. This setup also makes it easier to turn your luck around, create Garden Gnomes, and complete the Heliophobia achievement all in one go.
Developer Items Galore
- Seed(s): celebrationmk10, 05162011, 5162011, 5162021
- World Size: Any
- World Evil: Any
In celebration of Terraria‘s milestone tenth birthday on May 16, 2021, developers ReLogic released the secret world seed “celebrationmk10.” Upon entering this world seed for the first time, a party immediately starts! Five NPCs are also already there to welcome you into this colorfully-painted world.
This is another of the best world seeds in Terraria for newer players as there are no hidden difficulty modifiers or secret bosses. Instead, your chances of getting rare items like the Rod of Discord or developer items are increased substantially!
No Traps – Sike!
- Seed: notraps
- World Size: Any
- World Evil: Any
If you want to add an extra challenge to your next Terraria adventure, try entering the “notraps” Terraria seed! Despite its ironic name, this world seed is filled to the brim with traps, TNT, and darts sprinkled across every map layer.
The “No Traps” Terraria seed will definitely put your exploration skills to the test, as you’ll have to carefully navigate through caverns and tunnels with the additional risk of triggering deadly hazards. The Dangersense potion will be a necessity for every excursion outside the safety of your shelter! Despite the difficulty, this is a great map to play with friends as you journey through this dangerous world together!
Halfway to the Zenith
- Seed: 1.1.1.995857938
- World Size: Small
- World Evil: Corruption
If you’ve set your sights on crafting the legendary Zenith sword, you’ll need to get your hands on the rare Enchanted Sword. Luckily, there are several Terraria seeds you can enter to guarantee you an Enchanted Sword. For two guaranteed Enchanted Seeds, enter this seed in the world generation screen “1.1.1.995857938,” pick a small-sized world and Corruption as the world’s primary Evil.
Once at the default Spawn Point, run right until you reach the Jungle biome at the coordinates 2628 East at the Surface level. You’ll eventually come across a pre-dug one-block-wide ditch. Use this as a starting point to burrow down, and you’ll encounter the promised weapon. The second Enchanted Sword will be found at 3531 West in a cavern with an Enchanted Sword Shrine in the Underground layer.
A World Flipped On Its Head
- Seed(s): don’t dig up, dont dig up, dontdigup
- World Size: Any
- World Evil: Any
Survival games like Minecraft and Terraria abide by the age-old golden rule: don’t dig straight down. This Terraria seed flips that notion entirely upside down—literally! Rather than spawning on the world’s surface, players will spawn in the center of the Underworld. They must essentially work backward through Terraria’s progression and biomes.
If players manage to dig to the actual surface, they’ll see it’s infested with Evil, and the world will always be in a night-time state. If players manage to break free and fly to the top of the map using Wings or Mounts, they’ll die instantly.
Anything But The Bees!
- Seed: not the bees!, not the bees
- World Size: Any
- World Evil: Any
If you have a phobia of buzzing insects, this Terraria seed isn’t for you! It brings the bumbling winged bug to the forefront, transforming the expansive Terraria world into a bee haven. Most of the terrain is transformed into a Jungle biome, with Bee Hives and Honey Blocks. All water and other liquids also become honey, which is ideal for HP regeneration but not so much for anything else.
This Terraria seed also grants players immediate access to the Merchant NPC. This is ideal as it provides players with materials they won’t be able to find otherwise, like Torches, Arrows, Copper Tools, Iron Anvil, the Furnace, and more.
Don’t Starve-Inspired World
- Seed(s): constant, the constant, theconstant, eye4aneye, eyeforaneye
- World Size: Any
- World Evil: Any
If you want a fusion between Don’t Starve Together and Terraria, look no further than “The Constant” seed! Rather than altering the difficulty or adding new mobs, this Terraria seed changes multiple factors in the game. For instance, there’s now a hunger system, so players must forage for food items and survive. With low enough hunger, you may even slowly starve to death!
Like Don’t Starve, the world takes on a greyish, gothic hue and darkening shader effects as the day draws on. Outdoor light sources like Torches and Campfires will also be extinguished when it rains. Items that are exclusive to the Don’t Starve Together are also more likely to drop from mobs, including the Eye Bone, which summons a mobile piggy bank pet.
Double Trouble
- Seed: 5162020
- World Size: Small
- World Evil: Corruption
While this Terraria seed doesn’t offer any spectacular items right off the bat, it’s more interesting in terms of its procedural generation. Known by the community as the “Drunk” seed, it has tons of useful biomes close to spawn. It even has a Corruption and Crimson biome all crammed into one world at either end and both types of all ores become available, like Lead and Iron. This seed is ideal for players wanting to complete their Bestiary and unlock Zoologist’s store inventory!
If that’s not interesting enough, the Dungeon to the East is wedged firmly underground. If you want to fight Skeletron and delve into the secrets of the Dungeon, you’ll have to dig straight down to locate the entrance.
Explosive Bunnies & Lava
- Seed(s): for the worthy
- World Size: Any
- World Evil: Any
Are you worthy enough to try the most explosive of all Terraria seeds? This world ups the ante with the game’s difficulty, increasing all enemy’s HP and damage by one-third. Bosses also behave differently, with changes to their AI patterns and sizes, so gear up for a serious fight!
Thought that was all this world could throw at you? Wrong! Even chopping trees and destroying pots proves dangerous, as they have a chance to drop live bombs. The usual, harmless bunnies are also nowhere to be seen—replaced by explosive counterparts!
The Terraria Seed for the Most Experienced Players
- Seed(s): getfixedboi, get fixed boi
- World Size: Any
- World Evil: Any
Also known as the “Everything” Terraria seed, the “Get Fixed Boi” world seed combines many of Terraria’s “secret” seeds, like “Not the Bees,” “No Traps,” “Don’t Dig Up,” “The Constant,” and more into a uniquely challenging experience designed only for the most experienced players. As such, it’s potentially the best out of all Terraria seeds for challenging your gameplay prowess!
The world’s surface is made entirely of Evil biomes with no Clentaminator tool to cleanse away the world’s rot. Players will spawn in the Underworld as their starting point, with a colorful glowing mushroom biome directly above them. “Get Fixed Boi” also stars the hardest boss in Terraria: Mechdusa. This terrifying boss is the three Hardmode Mechanical bosses on steroids. It drops the world-exclusive Waffle’s Iron weapon, which shoots a Waffle as a projectile and inflicts the Hellfire debuff.
Secret World Seeds are the best way to spice up your Terraria gameplay, adding new gameplay elements and unique challenges you’ll never find in a default world. If you want achievements to grind towards, why not try collecting the Town Slime NPCs or cleansing the world of all Corruption, Crimson, and Hallow?
