Bomb statue

[8faiNt ı♣ı]

Can i spawn bombs with the statue?

[Nova Solarius]

Pretty sure they spawn armed bombs.

[Sir Fancybritches Fizzlebottom]

They spawn the bomb item, not armed bombs.
What the hell is the point of an armed bomb statue?

[Winner Sinclair]

Hmm Bomb farm for money

Not worth it
Too slow

You would be better off farming a lot of queen bee's and selling all drops

[dreynar_swag]

someof the best statues to farm nowadays are the golem statue for night vision helmets or the jellyfish statue rest not so much.
Edit:I haven't yet needed to try the new fishing critter statues but if they can spawn something like a gold worm that might be good too.

[Sir Fancybritches Fizzlebottom]

Golem statues and possibly medusa statues are good for drops, but granite filling your inventory isn't fun.

[Ruinae Retroque Rursus]

You can indeed. However, a 1s timer will be very slow. Experiment with more... fun... measures

like:


HARPY.....**./...-..\
STATUE

where ** is a wooden platform hammered into the up direction, / is a block sloped like that, \ is another block sloped like that, . is empty space, and - is a pressure plate.

2 blocks for the Harpy Statue, one block space, one block platform, one block block, one block space, one block block.

Activates sixty times per second.

(Alternatively, if you can't find a Harpy statue, take the place of the Harpy. Just walk into the platform holding DOWN).

youre better off making an entire farming platform with a conveyor belt under the statues to collect all the loot easily, sell it, and make money quicker
i have a statue farm with skeletons, pigrons, slimes, medusas, goblins, the whole enchilada of statues. They drop so much loot i was easily able to fill up 10 chests, but i sold it all. Glow stickes from jellyfish got for somewhat alot since you get them dropped often, skeleton, harpy, and shark drops can also be worth something
you can easily make 1/2 a plat in just 12 seconds of farming for mobs vs selling teh bombs

[Darkstar]

Unlike monster statues, item statues (such as the bomb statue) have a ten second cooldown, which means that a five second timer will still activate it at full speed.

I imagine that farming bombs to sell would be slow, but unlike monster farming, you wouldn't actually need to be present, since the bombs would still spawn while you were far away, and would clump together into a single stack.

So long as you don't exceed the cap on dropped items at any point, you can go back to the statue later and collect the lump sum of bombs spawned during that time. Just make sure you do so before exiting the map, since the items will despawn if you haven't collected them when you leave.

I haven't actually tested this, but it's sound in theory.
