Notes
- The Herb Bag can appear in Surface Chests in stacks of 1–4, but higher amounts are rarer. If a chest contains any amount of Herb Bags, the chance it has just one is 84%, the chance of two is 12.33%, the chance of three is 3.33%, and the chance of four is just 0.33%.
- Upon opening a Herb Bag,[1] a certain number of rolls will be performed, with each roll selecting a type of item and a stack size. The number of rolls is initially between 2 and 4, but has a
33.33*1/3 (33.33%) chance to be additionally incremented by 1:
No. of rolls Chance 2 22.22*2/9 (22.22%)3 33.33*3/9 (33.33%)4 33.33*3/9 (33.33%)5 11.11*1/9 (11.11%)
- The average number of rolls is 3.33.
- Upon each roll, the 14 possible items have equal chances to be selected and the same item can be selected in multiple rolls. Each item starts in a stack of 2–4, but has a
33.33*1/3 (33.33%) chance to increase its stack size by a random number from 1 to 4:
Stack size per roll Chance 2 22.22*8/36 (22.22%)3 25*9/36 (25%)4 27.78*10/36 (27.78%)5 8.33*3/36 (8.33%)6 8.33*3/36 (8.33%)7 5.56*2/36 (5.56%)8 2.78*1/36 (2.78%)
- The average stack size per roll is 3.83.
- The maximum number of items that can be obtained from a Herb Bag is 40 (5 item rolls, each in stacks of 8) and the minimum number is 4 (2 item rolls in stacks of 2). The average number of items is 12.78.
Tips
- The Herb Bag is the best way to obtain herbs in early pre-Hardmode, especially in Expert/Master Mode, as some seeds are in biomes where enemies are stronger.
- If two Herb Bags are found, they can be researched in Journey Mode to provide an infinite amount of herbs and seeds without having to grow and research them manually.
Trivia
- The bag's sprite shows a Daybloom, Moonglow, Waterleaf, and what appears to be a Fireblossom at the rear.
