Value

From Terraria Wiki
Jump to navigation Jump to search

Value is what is described as the monetary worth of an item. If sold by an NPC, it will also be the price the NPC sells that item for. When selling, items are always sold for 1/5 (20%) of the purchase price, rounded down. The rounding can lead to confusion about the exact price of items. Existing modifiers can also change an item's value.

The Goblin Tinkerer charges one third of any item's current value to reforge, which is approximately 1.67× its sell price.

Example

A Musket Ball has a value of 7 CC. Selling a single Musket Ball yields 1 CC. One Musket Ball has a value of 7 CC and 7 / 5 = 1.4 CC. After rounding, the result is 1 CC.

Notes

  • Item prices can be decreased by equipping a Discount Card or Greedy Ring, and prices can also be higher or lower based on the vendor's happiness level. On this wiki, the value displayed in an item's infobox is always the base value, unaffected by these two factors.

History

  • Desktop 1.0.6.1: Changed the way the value of stacked items is rounded to fix selling/buyback inconsistencies.
