All accessory recipes: material, station and farm cost

TerrariaReference tableVerified on patch 1.4.9

Accessories are the real progression system in Terraria, and they are also the reason most players stall. You need one specific item, which drops from one specific place, at a one-in-three chance, roughly two hundred times before you can afford the crafts you want. This table exists to compress that into a route.

Sample data: the rows below are layout examples. Verify each material, station and drop rate against patch 1.4.9, and add the rest of the accessories before publishing. A reference table is only worth searching if it is complete.

How to plan a single farming run

Most players waste time by farming one item, then another, then a third. Group them by biome instead. Every accessory above has a source that lives in one of four places — the desert, the underworld, the sky, or a dungeon. If you decide which of those four you are standing in, the accessory list collapses from twenty entries to three or four.

  1. List every accessory you still want.
  2. Sort the list by source biome.
  3. Plan one trip per biome, and take the other drops while you are there.
  4. Stop when the list is empty — accessory farming is the single easiest way to burn a Terraria evening for nothing.
Pro tip: the Traveling Merchant restocks every day you talk to him. His stock rotates, so if a single item you need is not there, buy the cheapest thing on the list and come back tomorrow rather than searching for a specific drop.
