Terraria Map
Published · measured on Terraria 1.4.5.8 worlds
The No Traps seed is Terraria's greatest practical joke. In seed 1.1.1.64.1064, built on Terraria 1.4.5.8, the game multiplies environmental hazards to absurd levels. Far from lacking traps, the subterranean dirt and cavern layers are packed with pressure plates, rolling boulders, geysers, TNT barrels, and booby-trapped containers.
The world generator seeded 168 chests across this perilous Small realm. Map out wire lines and evade boulder drops using the interactive map.
Deceptive title and dense mechanical hazards
Every dark cavern in this world presents lethal engineering. Pressure plates connect directly to poison dart traps, spiky ball launchers, explosive detonator plungers, and suspended boulder traps.
Stepping onto an unlit tunnel floor without examining the ground almost certainly triggers a trap. Crafting a Dangersense Potion or holding pressure plates to reveal mechanical wiring is critical for spotting tripwires before they drop boulders onto your head.
Booby-trapped Dead Man's Chests near spawn
Looting subterranean treasure requires extreme caution in this world. The nearest pair of Hermes Boots rests in a Dead Man's Chest positioned 398 ft east and 112 ft below the surface, 494 ft from spawn. Similarly, a Cloud in a Bottle waits inside a Dead Man's Chest at 626 ft west and 420 ft below the surface, 872 ft from spawn.
Both containers are Dead Man's Chests wired to hidden dynamite, dart mechanisms, and falling boulders. Opening either chest without disarming surrounding wires with wire cutters or digging away nearby explosive blocks will instantly detonate the room and kill your character.
Surface pyramid and sky island sanctuaries
Taking refuge above ground provides temporary safety from cavern mechanisms. An earthen pyramid rises 1470 ft east and 32 ft above the surface, 1,476 ft from spawn. The world generates 1 pyramid, offering sand tunnels to explore.
Looking higher into the clouds reveals 3 floating islands, with the closest hovering 354 ft west and 424 ft above the surface, 430 ft from spawn. Inside this nearest celestial temple, a Skyware Chest holds a Lucky Horseshoe at 1096 ft west and 450 ft above the surface, granting complete immunity to fall damage. The subterranean rock layer also holds 1 sword shrine 2898 ft west and 28 ft below the surface, deposits of Tin, Lead, Silver, Gold, and 77 life crystals, with the Dungeon guarding the west side.
Questions
Why does seed 1064 contain so many traps?
The name No Traps is intentionally ironic; the world generation code specifically maximizes the frequency of boulder traps, dart launchers, geysers, and explosives.
How can you safely open Dead Man's Chests in this world?
You must dig around the chest to remove wired boulders, dart traps, and dynamite, or use wire cutters to sever the trigger mechanism before opening the lid.
Is the desert pyramid exposed at the surface on the No Traps secret seed?
Yes. The pyramid entrance sits 1470 ft east and 32 ft above the surface. Surface dunes lead directly into the tomb. You can walk in on day one. Loot the golden chest before night.
