How to Get Started in Aquamirae: First Tools and Armor

Gather the basics

The first gear you can assemble is the Terrible set. Craft Terrible Helmet, Terrible Chestplate, Terrible Leggings, and Terrible Boots using shaped crafting recipes. Pair them with the Terrible Blade, Terrible Fang, Terrible Cleaver, and Terrible Chakram — all available through crafting_shaped recipes. These give you enough protection and damage to survive early encounters with aquatic mobs.

Food and utility

Kill Spinefish (spawn via Spinefish Spawn Egg) to get Raw Spinefish. Cook it on a campfire for Cooked Spinefish, or use the smelting/smoking recipes for the same result. Jellyfish Jelly drops from jellyfish-type mobs and is used in several recipes. Fin is another common drop worth collecting.

Explore for upgrades

Seek out Frozen Chest blocks — they contain Frozen Key, Pirate Pouch, and Treasure Pouch loot. Open Pirate Pouch and Treasure Pouch for random rewards. Use the Echo Compass to locate points of interest, and Shell Horn to summon or signal. Collect Abyssal Amethyst and Sharp Bones as you explore; both feed into later crafting. Once you have a stable base, move on to the smithing_transform recipes that upgrade your Terrible gear into the Abyssal and Salvager sets.
