The 1.4.1 update features a very large number of balance changes, along with a few new items.
New Content and Changes
- Added the winners of the Journey's End Vanity Contest:
- Plaguebringer's set
- Wandering set
- Timeless Traveler's set
- Floret Protector set
- Capricorn set
- Bonus winner: TV Head set!
- All six of these are craftable with pre-Hardmode materials of various sorts, so that all players can experience these awesome vanity sets! Thanks to everyone who participated and voted in the Vanity contest, and especially to our winners!
- Added new Achievements
- Added a credits sequence and music track following Moon Lord's defeat for the first time. This can also be accessed from the main menu.
- Music Box (Journey's End) is now created by recording the Credits music sequence. Additionally, using it in a normal accessory slot will play the Credits in-game, while using it in a social slot will only play the music.
- Added a new Princess NPC, with a variety of related items (and a new hairstyle!)
- Added new early game summon equipment: Flinx Fur Coat and the Flinx Staff!
- Added a new pre-Hardmode whip, Spinal Tap, craftable at Dungeon-tier
- Added a Lavaproof Fishing Hook and Angler Tackle Bag Tinker, the Lavaproof Tackle Bag
- Bee Hives and Antlion Eggs can now be crafted and placed
- Added a "Rainbow Cursor" vanity accessory
Vanity Accessory Changes
- Ultrabright Helmet now supports visible hair when worn
- Armors and vanity items which draw on the back (backpacks, tails, wings, and capes) are now no longer mutually exclusive. This means that you can now have one of any of those four categories all displaying at the same time. Previously, only one of those could ever be visible at a time (for instance, if you had visible wings, you could not ever see a cape, backpack, or tail).
- Combat Wrench now displays on the player regardless of what other backpacks are currently shown (it is its own category of back-draw)
- Angel Halo now functions like Unicorn Horn, in that it will be visible regardless of any other head equipment or vanity that is equipped
- Accessories which draw on the head have also been split into several subgroups, which will allow several of them to be worn simultaneously. For example, Blindfold/Spectre Goggles in the eye slot, Nature's Gift/Obsidian Rose in the "flower" slot and Ginger Beard.
- Blindfold can now be visibly seen when wearing hats/helmets which show the face
- Wearing Diving Helmet-series accessories set to visible will override your helmet, allowing them to be seen instead of your helmet
- Obsidian Skull-series accessories that are set to visible are now compatible with hats/helmets that show the face, as it will replace your face with the skull. Due to the shape of the Skull not fitting standard "Terrarian face" shapes, on certain helmets, it will use a different sprite with a more standard layout. You can also wear virtually all physically compatible Head/Face accessories with the Obsidian Skull as well.
- Ginger Beard has been resprited, and if set to visible, is now compatible with hats/helmets that show the face. It is also now compatible with most other Head/Face accessories.
- Reworked Shield/Cape display so that Shields and Capes are now visually compatible with each other again. The Shield now draws "in front" of the Cape, instead of underneath of it, which led to many of the initial issues.
- Shields which are set to not be visible can still be dyed, and will show that dye when actively used (such as Shield of Cthulhu dash or Brand of the Inferno Block). Previously, if they were set to invisible, their active use version would never have dye.
- Long-player hair is now properly compatible with wings/backpacks, and will show the full length of the hair without being cut-off visually
- The special trails left by various types of running boots (Sailfish Boots, Flurry Boots, Flower Boots, etc) are now also subject to vanity usage, and you can use the one you prefer either through re-ordering accessories or using the social slots
- Bone Glove now has visual vanity for the hand slot
Other Content/Design Changes
- The Journey Mode duplication menu has been overhauled, with the addition of several new filters to break up some of the larger categories
- Additionally, the Misc option in the duplication menu should more properly encompass items that do not fall under any other category
- Made minor updates to Boss Mask item sprites to match the mask sprites
- Sprite update for Orange/Amber Phasesaber
- Torch God now plays an Otherworldly track when that setting is toggled
- Bestiary now indicates if a drop is Wave-based/if it only drops after a certain wave in Frost Moon and Pumpkin Moon
- Loading Tips now appear when connecting to a server
- Thunder volume is now adjusted with the Ambient SFX settings rather than regular Sound settings (edited)
- Plantero's Sombrero has made its triumphant return
- Reorganized menu settings for resolution/fullscreen/windowed borderless to all use the same sub-menu, to reduce confusion
- Updated FNA (Mac/Linux related)
- Added RGB support for SteelSeries game peripherals
- Adding updated localization for all languages up to 1.4 (some 1.4.1 content may still be untranslated, and these translations will come in an upcoming hotfix)

- Cool Whip's damage penalty is reduced from 33% to 30%

- This increase is the smallest with earlier whips (Snapthorn only roughly 10% longer) and larger with later whips (several late game whips have a roughly 50% increase)
- Whips can now gain the benefits of Flask buffs
- Is now purchasable from the Zoologist at 10% completion instead of 15%, as 15% too often left it more efficient to just sequence break to the Jungle to obtain Snapthorn
- Finch should now be somewhat more reliable/accurate with hitting its targets. However, due to how early it is obtained, it is intentionally a little inaccurate, as this is part of its balancing.
- Enemies knocked back by Finches should almost always be knocked away from the player now, regardless of the angle of the Finch
- Technically a bug, but Retinamini's lasers were accidentally not set to use independent immunity timers, which meant that they were still conflicting with other piercing attacks, while the 1.4 changelog had indicated otherwise. This has been fixed, which should result in less immune-frame time for Retinamini lasers.
- The attack speed of Sanguine Bats has been increased from 60 to 66 (this is how long it takes to make their attack circuit)
- Fire rate cooldown increased from 30 to 33 (roughly 10% slower attack speed)

- Enemies can now be damaged by their entire body, not just the tongue, when they are attacking

- Note: This set will deal very high summon damage, but at the expense of a lower minion count. Instead, it focuses on dramatically improving the performance and damage of whips, and can still be obtained earlier, or as an alternative, to Bee armor, but it may require a bit more legwork to obtain the set, given its new crafting station requirement.
- Molten Helmet now gives 7% Melee Critical Chance

- Molten Leggings now give 7% Melee Speed
- The 17% Melee Damage set bonus has been reduced to 10% (the 7% moved to the Breastplate)

- Spectre armor (with Hood)
- Note: Statistically speaking, this set has not changed! This is merely a re-organizing of stat changes and tooltip revision to be more clear to players
- The -40% damage penalty has been moved from the Spectre Hood itself (which now gives no bonuses at all, either positive or negative) and now comes from the Set Bonus
- The tooltip on the set bonus now attempts to be more clear about the fact that you are trading offensive power for healing benefits. Hopefully, this will lead to less confusion in the future about why this set works the way it does.

They can be crafted in a Graveyard at a Tinkerer's Workshop, by taking one of them and combining it with a Life or Mana Crystal. Band of Starpower + Life Crystal = Panic Necklace. Panic Necklace + Mana Crystal = Band of Starpower.
- This item has been completely overhauled and turned into an accessory
- When equipped, the player will shoot Crossbones towards their cursor whenever they are attacking, once per second. Consider it like a sword projectile, except it works for every weapon.
- The bones deal 25 class-neutral damage, but additionally ignore up to 25 enemy defense.
- Now also has vanity visibility in the Gloves spot
- Note: In practice, this should allow the Bone Gloves to be simultaneously viable for more classes than just Ranged, and also give it a bit more longevity

- Reduced the duration of Mind Trick by 1 second
- Now has the +20 mana bonus that its component accessories granted
- Diving Helmet and all of its tinkers

- Doubled its spawn rate, giving it a 1/20 chance to be found in Lava-layer chests or Lava fishing crates
- Now inflicts a special version of On Fire that deals 15 DPS instead of 4
- Technically a bug fix, but Wooden Arrows converted to Flaming Arrows by using this accessory now properly gain the +2 damage that Flaming Arrows have. This bonus is only applied to Wooden Arrows, if using the Quiver with superior arrows it will not apply the bonus (as it would be using the superior damage bonus of those arrows instead)
- Increased the lava damage reduction from 30 to 45. This change applies to all of its tinkers, however, as a consequence, lava damage has been moved to its own immunity timer, as the change would allow lava to very easily be reduced to 1 damage with the proper loadout.
- Is now a component in the Lava Waders, extending its lava damage reduction to the Lava Waders, Hellfire Treads, and Terraspark Boots. This change is retroactive for people who have already crafted those items, of course!

- Can no longer dash-into-mount to instantly reach top acceleration
- There was an unlisted change in 1.4 that dramatically reduced the range of the Scutlix mount's attack. This was a performance change, not a balance change, and cannot be fully reverted as a result.

- Additionally, to compensate for the lost range, the damage of the Scutlix shots has been increased from 100 to 150

Crafting Recipes and Drops
- Previously, killing a Wandering Eye Fish or a Zombie Merman had a flat 1/8 chance for the game to select ONE of the three items to drop, and it would only drop one. This has been changed so that each of the three items has their own independent 1/8 chance to drop. This means that you could potentially get more than one drop at once, and the three are no longer competing with each other, effectively increasing their drop rate by 3×.
- Increased drop rate from 1/200 to 1/100 for standard Blood Moon enemies
- Increased drop rate from 1/200 to 1/25 for Blood Moon fishing enemies (Eyeball Fish, Zombie Merman, Blood Eel, Hemogoblin Shark)

- Early Game Ore Tools, Weapons, and Armor
- The cost of making early game Ore equipment has been re-evaluated across the board with cost reductions to most items. This applies to Copper, Tin, Iron, Lead, Silver, Tungsten, Gold, and Platinum
- Pickaxes have had their crafting costs reduced from 12 to 10. Copper/Tin Pickaxes have been reduced to 8.
- Axes have had their crafting costs reduced from 9 to 8. Copper/Tin Axes have been reduced to 6.
- Broadsword crafting costs are generally unchanged, but Copper/Tin Broadswords have been reduced from 8 to 6
- Shortswords have had their crafting costs reduced from 7 to 6. Copper/Tin Shortswords have been reduced to 5.
- Hammers have had their crafting costs reduced from 10 to 8.
- Bows have NOT had their crafting costs changed.
- Copper and Tin armor's costs (ordered from Helmet>Chest>Legs) have been reduced from 15/25/20 Bars to 12/20/16 Bars
- Iron and Lead armor's costs have been reduced from 20/30/25 to 15/25/20

- The required bars to craft Adamantite and Titanium Swords has not changed, but see the next section for more info

- Rather than being sold randomly from the Traveling Merchant, this weapon is now crafted with the Star Cannon and Hallowed Bars
Buffs/Debuffs
- "Player" Frostburn now does 8 DPS like "Enemy" Frostburn
- Technically a bug fix: 1.4 purported to increase Cursed Inferno damage from 12 to 24, but this was in error due to misreading the code. In truth, this was an increase from 6 to 12. This has now been remedied, and Cursed Inferno now properly does 24 DPS. However, player-based Cursed Inferno has NOT been increased correspondingly, so they will still take 12 DPS.
- Technically a bug fix: 1.4 purported to increase Venom damage from 12 to 30, but this was in error due to misreading the code. In truth, this was an increase from 6 to 15. This has now been remedied, and Venom now properly does 30 DPS. However, player-based Venom has NOT been increased correspondingly, so they will still take 15 DPS.
- Venom has been renamed to "Acid Venom". This is to reflect a dramatic overhaul to its enemy immunity. Enemies who are immune to Poison are no longer necessarily immune to Acid Venom, and Acid Venom will now usually impact undead, stone, metal, and poisonous enemies.
- Defense reduction has been reduced from 20 to 15
- Rather than individually boosting different On Fire-like debuffs with, admittedly arbitrary amounts, Oiled now adds an additional flat 25 DPS if the target is suffering from any of these debuffs. For example, if the target is On Fire (4 DPS), it will take 29 total if Oiled.
- The Thorns effect from this potion has been increased from 1/3rd of the damage taken to 100% of the damage taken
- The Thorns effect from this buff has been increased from 20% of the damage taken to 50% of the damage taken
- Debuff Immunity Overhaul
- Though far too extensive to fully document, hundreds of changes have been made to enemy debuff immunities across the game. Generally speaking, the majority of these changes were making enemies susceptible to debuffs which they were previously immune to.
- The Venom change previously mentioned is the most prominent example, with the vast majority of Venom immune enemies no longer being immune.
- A large number of enemies which were previously immune to Cursed Inferno no longer are, particularly many stone/metal enemies
- Previously, enemies which were immune to Cursed Inferno were also always immune to Shadowflame. This is no longer the case, and there are now enemies immune to one or the other, though on the whole, a lot less enemies are immune to Shadowflame than before
- Ghost-like enemies (Wraiths, Poltergeists, etc) are now almost always immune to all major debuffs, including Ichor. This does not extend to Whip-debuffs.
- A large number of enemies which were "immune to everything" no longer are. This includes several Pumpkin Moon enemies and Celestial Invasion enemies that were immune to everything for no apparent reason. They are now immune, or not immune, to various debuffs depending on their nature.
- Several enemies which are "immune to everything" intentionally (such as the Destroyer) are no longer immune to Whip-debuffs, as those are meant to be universal.
- Though there are a few exceptions, the vast majority of Confusion-immune enemies still are. Unfortunately, this is because Confusion requires specialized code for every type of enemy, and so the cost investment to make more enemies susceptible to Confusion is dramatically higher than simply "setting them to not immune" like the other debuffs.

- While still immune to explosions under normal circumstances, like other explosion resistant materials, they will become breakable with explosives after entering Hardmode
- The Jungle and Corruption/Crimson Worldgen
- Worldgen will attempt to avoid overlapping Corruption and Crimson biomes with the Jungle during initial worldgen. While it is possible to still have overlap, the worldgen system will strongly discourage it in general, so expect to see far less worlds with Corrupt/Crimson Jungles. This does not apply to the Hardmode infection strips.

- Adjusted Mirage Fish and Pixiefish to be "uncommon" instead of "rare", to match other Quest fish
- TreeHit for Loot
- The limit on the number of TreeHits you can attempt per day has been increased from 200 to 500

- Fishing Decreasing Returns

Trivia
- The artwork for 1.4.1 reuses the banner below the Terraria logo from 1.4.0.1's artwork, where it contains the text "Journey's End". For this update, it reads "1.4.1 update".
