Is the wiki up-to-date (talking about jungle crates)?

[258789553873]

Because it says that jungle crates are supposed to drop 'anklet of the wind'. I've openned probably over a dozen now and still haven't gotten it, even though the wiki says it has a 1/6 chance. And yes, I know it only drops from the crates actually labeled 'jungle crate', and not just from any crate I fish out of a jungle pond.

If it says that it was updated in 2018, it was.

It actually says that its obtained from Ivy Chests from the Underground Jungle. Not sure if is from fishing crates.
EDIT: To be more precise, I personally from fishing many times have never really gotten 1 from Jungle Crates but ive found many from Ivy Chests. But RNG I guess.

The 'official' wiki claims that it gives items that can be found in jungle shrines (as best as I can tell, I've already found them all).

Looking at the list, it would appear that it actually has a 1/6 of giving you one of 5 items. Meaning that you have about a 1/30 chance of getting any one of those items, including the anklet of the wind.

At the rate I'm going I'm tempted to just make another world and have my character explore THAT jungle until I found it. But I feel like that would be cheating.

[258789553873]

Never mind. I decided to run through the jungle with a spelunker potion on. Found some chests (and hearts) that I never saw because they were in air pockets deep in the walls. I found my anklet of the wind (it apparently has a 25% chance of showing up in chests). Still kind of annoying that I had to open almost a dozen chests in the jungle before I found one. Oh well. I have my frostspark boots now, that's all that matters.

There's no reason to flex on people.

I already have the ankh shield, and have had it for a while. And I'm just one item short of making the cell phone (I need the tally counter, which I thought the travelling merchant sold until I looked it up, I'll be farming for that next). Besides, I was thinking of making a fishing pond in the dungeon anyway. Though I was hoping that the angler would give me the 'endless water bucket' before I took on that endeavor.

edit: Looking that up, apparently he only gives the water bucket and sponge AFTER hardmode. Oh well. Guess that's why I've never gotten it from him, despite doing at least 70 quests for him (based on my achievement counter, I think it was at 69 when I started my current playthrough).

I thought the ankh shield was hardmode only.

My mistake, I have the obsidian shield, and a cell phone now.

Now all I really need to do is build my underworld bridge and stock up on potions for the fight.

I also have a few hundred crates stored up. I'm hoping that I can get enough ore to make adamantite AND titanium gear right at the start of hardmode.

A few hundred should be way more than enough for one person, ive had enough for three people from about 150
