Can Amber Larva still drop from Ghorm?

[Stella Bella]

The wiki says it can but ive killed him over 70 times with not 1 single Amber Larva dropping :(

Amber has a 1 in 100 or 1% drop rate from Ghorm.

at 70 kills, that means you have a 49% chance to have not gotten the drop by now, and a 51% to have gotten it, so nearly 50/50.

even when you hit the drop rate with 100 kills, you will only have a 63% chance to have gotten the drop by then.

it's probably not worth it to farm ghorm for the drop, just explore for the guaranteed amber larva spawn in the dirt biome.

I swear ive looked EVERYWHERE its not on my world, its either Ghorm or new world if I want one it seems....

[Ccrack]

its faster to just look for the spawned lava. if you need a second one just make another temporary world to go get it from.
if you need 2 of them for multiplayer then you'll need a second world to get an extra paradise fruit too or whatever that one was called

[Nerevar]

the amber lava scene same as the paradise tree and amalgam scene are not guaranteed to spawn in your world.

atleast the larva has other means of getting it. for the other 2 youre fully out of luck. no idea why devs decided these should be rng spawns when they provide 2 of the 9 perma hp buffs.

yes you can, i got one yesterday in a newly created world.

Which is sad because this was a problem with the Giant mushroom, not to the same extent, but was fully addressed by allowing it to drop from a mob. They acknowledged a problem and fixed it, only to do the same thing for other items anyway.

Ive killed Ghorm 206 times now and still no amber larva T_T

If you really want one and just want to grab it from a new world quickly, the seed im playing on has one that is easy to find.

World seed: 330092354401

Just mine straight south from the core, the amber scene will be off to the east shortly after you pass ghorms path.

I grabbed one from a different world finally, but thank you a small rabbit.

Thank you so much. Spent the entire day yesterday looking for one in two separate worlds.

I farmed 2 or 3 from Ghorm. It only took me 278 times in hardmode. Remember to do the farming in hardmode for increased drops.

You can use the video method below to find things quickly... I haven't done it yet, however.

You know the funny thing when I first saw Amber Larva. I though it was a new boss. I was making my little arena get ready to break that Amber that trap a Larva in side it. I later learn that it was really just a food static item after.

You should under stand where I coming from after that hive biome that fill with larva monster.

Do you happen to know where the Paradise Fruit is on that seed too?
