Surviving Projectile Towers and Ocean Hazards

Dangers in Deadly World are not limited to underground caves. Surface exploration and ocean travel introduce automated projectile towers as well as underwater sea mines and traps.

Approaching Automated Projectile Towers

Small generated towers automatically fire projectiles at nearby players, making open-field approaches dangerous.

1. Raise a shield as soon as you spot a small unfamiliar tower or notice projectiles firing toward you.

2. Instead of charging across open ground, place small walls of solid blocks to create cover as you close the distance.

3. Tunnel just beneath the surface to reach the base of the tower safely, allowing you to break into or dismantle the structure without taking direct fire.

Navigating Sea Mines and Ocean Traps

Oceans contain underwater sea mines and traps that punish careless swimming and fast boat travel.

1. Travel by boat during daytime when visibility into the water is clearest, and steer wide around unfamiliar shapes beneath the waves.

2. Drink a Night Vision potion before diving for resources or exploring ocean floors so underwater mines and traps stand out from a safe distance.

3. Keep food and healing items accessible on your hotbar when swimming, and avoid touching or mining unfamiliar underwater hazards at close range.
