The Ultimate Yoyo Guide – Terraria

Here you will find EVERYTHING you need to know about yoyos!!!

Introduction

This is my first “big” guide, and would like some feedback to make it perfect 😉
If you have any tips or see any mistakes, please leave a message down below.

This guide is only for the PC version of Terraria.

Basics

I’m gonna explain the basics, if you are used to mechanics of Terraria you can skip to next section.

Every yoyo has:

• Damage
• Speed
• Reach
• Duration
• Knockback
• Critical Chance
• Velocity
• Source

Here is a short explanation of the list:

Damage

This is the basic amount of damage the yoyo will deal without any modifiers/buffs/critical hits (all yoyos do Melee damage).
For example, without any armor, buffs and modifiers the Wooden Yoyo (9 basic damage) will hit random from 8 to 10.

Speed

Speed is measured in “Use time”, which means the lower the use time the faster the weapon attacks. All yoyos have a “Fast” use time, which means the use time lays between 21 and 25.

The attack speed is calculated like this:
60 use time means 1 hit/second, 30 use time means 2 hits/second

Reach

The reach is how far the yoyo can go, for example, the “Amazon” has a reach of 13 tiles, and can stretch out for 13 tiles.

You can increase the reach by using a “String”, the “Yoyo Bag” or accessory/armor that gives you Melee Attack Speed.

Duration

The yoyo will return automatically after a certain amount of time, that time is called “Duration”. This will be measured in seconds.

If the duration is “∞” the yoyo will not return automatically.

Knockback

This is how far the enemies will be “knocked back” to the opposite direction of the attack, the knockback of the yoyos are between “Very weak” and “Strong” so it really depends on which yoyo you use.

Critical Chance

A critical hit is a hit which gives double damage and 40% more knockback, the change that the yoyo will give a critical hit without any modifiers etc. is 4% chance (only the Terrarian has 14%)

Velocity

Velocity is how fast it will fire, the higher the velocity the faster the yoyo will be at the mouse pointer. All the yoyo’s have the same velocity (16) so you won’t find any more info about this further in the guide.

A velocity of 16 means that in 1 second the yoyo travels around 32 blocks.
(no proof of this, but I couldn’t find any legit formula for the velocity. I tested it out and it’s pretty accurate, if you found a better solution please let me know in the comments).

Source

This is what you need to craft the yoyo or how and where you can find it.
For items, I give you the name and icon, not how to obtain it.
For drops, I give the name, picture, and drop chance, not where to find the enemies.

Size

None of the yoyo’s fit through a half block and all of them fit through a 1 block hole. This doesn’t count if you try to go from up to down, for some reason the yoyo won’t fit then.

If you have a triangle block with a solid block above it (1 block free space in between) then only 12 out of 20 yoyo’s will fit. All pre-hardmode yoyo’s besides the Valor will fit through that hole and the Format C, Gradient, Chik, Amarok, and the Yelets are the only hardmode yoyo’s which fit through that hole.

Never knew about the different sizes, so credits to Phantorom for finding this out.

Modifiers

Modifiers are very important if you want to be a yoyo master, the best modifier for yoyos is: “Godly” and the worst is “Broken”. Here you can see the differents:

If you want to change the modifier on your yoyo, you need to have the Goblin Tinkerer NPC and reforge them.

Pre-Hardmode Yoyos

These are all the 8 yoyos you are able to obtain in Pre-hardmode, they are ordered from low to high damage.

Wooden Yoyo

The wooden yoyo is probably the first yoyo you encounter, it’s easy to make on your first day.
It is used to craft a early hardmode yoyo, but we’ll come to that later 😉

Hardmode Armors [Part 1]

In this case you can choose between a Headgear, Mask or Helmet. I’m only going to talk about the ones you should craft when using the yoyo.

Sometimes the armor pieces give a bonus without having the full set, but I’m just going to put all the bonuses of the armor underneath “Set Bonus” because I don’t think it’s really necessary, why should you wear different kinds of armor?

Accessory (Yoyo Exclusive)

This may look like small amount of usable items, but there are a lot more items that can help you. For example boots, wings, and defensive items.

These are all the yoyo exclusive accessory items.

Strings

Strings will give an extra 4 to 5 reach to your yoyo. These are Pre-Hardmode and very easy to make early game.

Here I used the “Code 2” yoyo with the Green dyed string and without

There are 6 different Counterweights, all of these do the same and don’t stack.

The Counterweights fire a small yoyo like projectile after hitting an enemy with the yoyo which bounces back and forward.

The color of the Counterweight depends on which Counterweight you use, in this example, I used the green Counterweight.

Yoyo Glove

The Yoyo Glove is a Hardmode yoyo accessory that will let you hold 2 yoyos (when using Counterweights it will also hold 2 counterweights). On first hit the extra yoyo appears, on second hit the first Counterweight appears and on third hit the last Counterweight (if you have the Counterweight equipped of course).

• +10% damage
• +2% critical strike chance
• +1 HP/s life regeneration
• +4 defense

• +5.1% Melee damage
• +5.1% Melee speed
• +5% Movement speed
• +3 Defense
• +0.5 HP regeneration per second
