Notes

This content is transcluded from NPCs/dropnote.Since town NPCs cannot be damaged by players normally, external damage sources must be used to obtain this item. The Flymeal(Desktop, Console and Mobile versions) is one of the easiest options; other effective options include traps, lava, drowning, Boulders or Rolling Cacti(Desktop, Console and Mobile versions), enemies, Explosive Bunnies, Land Mines, or the Halloween-exclusive Rotten Eggs (in tandem with Frost armor).
- In addition, equipping the Guide Voodoo Doll allows the player to damage the Guide with any weapon.

Trivia

The name Andrew is a reference to the creator and lead developer of Terraria, Andrew "Redigit" Spinks.

It is one of the only three items dropped by NPCs with special names, the others being Jim's Cap(Desktop, Console and Mobile versions), which is dropped by a Painter named Jim, and Ivy(Desktop, Console and Mobile versions), which is dropped by a Steampunker named Whitney.
