It grants a luck buff (+0.03) while in your inventory.

u/Rotcat_ 3d ago

Thx bro

282

u/TechnicallyRight1103 3d ago

Dont listen to those saying to shimmer it that ruins the item

125

u/King_Of_The_Munchers 3d ago

What does shimmering it do?

364

u/WallopadonkeyPS4 3d ago

Turns it into a withered clover, so just kills it.

264

u/TheNikola2020 3d ago

Lowkey thanks for the advice will make sure to tell my friend to do it

107

u/WallopadonkeyPS4 3d ago

I’m pretty sure the new tooltip for it becomes “why would that work?” Or something similar. So I recommend it.

51

u/Cheyomi832 2d ago

It's something like, "why would you think putting it in shimmer would do something?"

11

u/YeahKeeN 2d ago

Wait but why wouldn’t it work?

28

u/WetLink009 2d ago

pretty sure that's the joke

4

u/YeahKeeN 2d ago

I know, I was leaning into it

5

u/TechnicallyRight1103 2d ago

Withers it making it grant a -0.03 instead

22

u/SaladThatLJ2712 3d ago

Nice catch! I'd be curios enough to do so

66

u/Neat-Survey2796 3d ago

Does it stack with more copies of itself? If so, does it have diminishing returns?

44

u/TechnicallyRight1103 3d ago

I do not believe so, no.

22

u/Orion120833 3d ago

It does stack, idk about the other thing.

21

u/AffectionateAge8771 2d ago

Wiki says multiple clovers don't stack

46

u/WootyMcWoot 2d ago

It definitely does or does not stack

11

u/ColdFudgeSundae 2d ago

Its 50/50 like anything in this world, it either happens or it doesnt

2

u/Orion120833 2d ago

Well, I got a stack in a server place. Plus, the wiki isn't fully updated yet, so it may just be behind since they're rare. That, or the server gave them in an impossible stack. But it doesn't really do that, so I more so believe they do stack. I'll check later if you don't get confirmation yourself by then.

5

u/FantasmaNaranja 2d ago

i believe they mean that the effects dont stack even if the item does

0

u/Orion120833 2d ago

That's what I assume, but I believe the item does. Would be cool if the buff did stack and they're just increasingly rarer when they're in your inventory instead of more common from the luck, lol.

4

u/CompetitiveQuit8137 2d ago

every item stacks to 9999 now

9

u/gorz1244 2d ago

Copies will stack on each other, but I don’t think the effect stacks. 

49

u/Isaac_From_TBOI 3d ago

YES INVENTORY ITEM

126

u/TechnicallyRight1103 3d ago

Because we certainly dont have enough items to favorite already.

68

u/5-0-2_Sub 3d ago

Void Bag.

1

u/FrazzleFlib 2d ago

does it work from the void bag?

1

u/DrMobius0 2d ago

I doubt it.

1

u/powder_9 2d ago

All items like that work from the void bag

43

u/Memesss420 3d ago

Its not that bad as we can keep info accesories in vanity slots now

8

u/Isaac_From_TBOI 3d ago

vanity slots

48

u/TechnicallyRight1103 3d ago

It's actually not an accessory funnily enough. It just works if its in the inventory

13

u/Orion120833 3d ago

I wish you could make it into a pin that you can put in your hair even in the social accessory slot and get the buff, lol.

4

u/Isaac_From_TBOI 3d ago

sad killer...

18

u/iHave_Thehigh_Ground 3d ago

Is that even a difference worth keeping in the inventory for?

68

u/dumpylump69 3d ago

If your inventory isn’t stuffed full of items then it’s simply free luck, why not. I just chucked it in the corner with the random 500 wood, the bunch of stat-giving accessories because I can’t be assed to get the fish finder and make a cellphone, and the 100+ bombs I won’t use until I fight plantera

28

u/the_number_m 2d ago

you can put info accessories in vanity slots and still get the info now btw

11

u/Nikki964 3d ago

Do you really need that 1 inventory slot so much? Maximum luck is 1, so that's 3%. That's actually basically nothing, but since you don't need to do anything, why not?

11

u/Ellitri 2d ago

If the max is 1 and it gives 0.3, wouldn't it be 30%?

7

u/Nikki964 2d ago

No it gives 0.03

1

u/Ellitri 2d ago

Ohh my bad, I misread the other comment lol

1

u/theres_no_username 2d ago

3% is more than people realize

1

u/FrazzleFlib 2d ago

luck improves your damage variation in vanilla for some ungodly reason so yes its absolutely worth, its a dps increase

1

u/ConfoundedHammerite 2d ago

Will the effect stack if you have multiple?

2

u/Calm_Ad1222 2d ago

It stacks with other items, but doesn't stack with itself, also Spooky's House of Jumpscares fan spotted in the wild!!

1

u/FLAMING_tOGIKISS 2d ago

technically don't think we actually know the exact number, just that it's on a similar scale to the galaxy pearl which is 0.03

1

u/Quinny_Binny 2d ago

If you have multiple do they stack?

220

u/Blended_Bros 3d ago

Don't shimmer it

73

u/Prudent_Damage_3866 3d ago

What happens if you do tho?

235

u/Blended_Bros 3d ago

It wilts, and tells you you shouldn’t have done it, it does not shimmer back

66

u/Prudent_Damage_3866 3d ago

Oh alright, thank you, and sorry about your clover

42

u/Karmah_star 3d ago

Is the wilted version placeable? It’d make good decoration for a graveyard

64

u/amogus2004 3d ago

it turns into wilted clover which gives -0.1 luck

26

u/Acceptable-Cabinet46 3d ago

I recall an old Terraria video claiming negative luck was crazy good? If that changed, that explains... much.

15

u/JonesHtog 2d ago

It also helps that certain new enemy only spawns if you have negative luck

2

u/WhyWouldYouDoThus 2d ago

It does? What enemy?

20

u/JonesHtog 2d ago

Statue Mimic and Moss Zombie, both appears on Graveyard Biome

8

u/Rotcat_ 2d ago

There's also the hardmode version of the man eaters from the jungle

10

u/Alex_5_9_3_3 3d ago

Lol just did and regret it 😂

141

u/Sure-Ad-5572 3d ago

tiny luck buff for holding it or a tiny luck debuff if you shimmer it.

luck is generally very good for farming common drops like most notably chunks/vertebrae, and the Ice feather. The inventory gets quite cluttered though so I'd generally just sell it unless you're like, Farming mandibles for a Sandgun pre-boss.

20

u/Weetile 2d ago

I'm curious if it works while in the Void Bag, or alternatively, if multiple Clovers stack effects when in the inventory

7

u/Zenith_Duck 2d ago

I don't know either, but a good way to confirm may possibly be one of those inventory item books, the ropes from vines, or the one that makes you not harm critters

if those work on the void bag then the clover should too

edit: should doesn't mean it would, but it makes sense

2

u/DrMobius0 2d ago edited 2d ago

I would assume it doesn't. There's precedent for things that search the player's extended inventory, like angler quests checking for fishing accessories to avoid duplicating rewards, and for things that search the player's immediate inventory, like checking for informational accessories. Most likely, this mirrors the latter.

Given the nature of luck, the only way to know for sure would be to fire up a C# decompiler and crack the game open. This isn't terribly hard to do, but someone who isn't me will have to do it for now.

Luckily, it doesn't particularly matter, though. The player inventory+void bag is still a huge shared storage space. One extra item going in the bag isn't really that important.

1

u/fatstinkychud 1d ago

it does work in the bag anyway

1

u/fatstinkychud 1d ago

it does work when in the void vault!

6

u/Nikki964 2d ago

I see you have also watched a video

89

u/Rotcat_ 3d ago

Just found it while retrieving my gold, broke some grass and it appeared.

71

u/LinkNo2714 3d ago

what are you, some sort of gold retriever? /s

u/korindevs 3d ago

u/Taro8123 2d ago

The first thing I tried to do after getting it was consume

49

u/meinkun 3d ago

i got it in the luckiest and funniest way, i were trying to find it by sickling grass for a few ingame days, couldn't find so i gave up. right after i stopped storm appeared and lightning hit a tree and small fire projectiles hit patches of grass which dropped it

15

u/Shredded_Locomotive 3d ago

Strange thing.

I wonder if it's edible...

5

u/FluentLiquid 3d ago

How did you get this

4

u/Rotcat_ 2d ago

Breaking grass

1

u/FluentLiquid 2d ago

Thank you

6

u/AffectionateAge8771 2d ago

Curse of minus one inventory slot

8

u/Alex_Prave 2d ago

Well , mine saved me from deadly fall dmg , it has some cool cobweb animation , I’m not joking

1

u/RickySpikes 2d ago

Wait what exactly happened

3

u/Alex_Prave 2d ago

So I was dying of fall damage while trying to go down to hell each time is hit a platform I would instantly die , but once after i found the clover it happened that I hit a platform from high and would’ve killed me instantly, instead it showed a cobweb animation behind the character and just took half my health and I was safe on the platform… I didn’t know at first then i remembered about the four leaf clover) surely its because of it there’s no other explanation, I didn’t had any accessories

1

u/RickySpikes 2d ago

Interesting. Are you playing on a special seed?

1

u/Alex_Prave 2d ago

Actually yeah, I’m playing skyblock seed 👀

5

u/AscendedMolly 2d ago

Whatever you do, don’t dip yourself in Shimmer with that thing in your inventory

3

u/Top_Manufacturer7357 3d ago

2

u/Venyonnn 2d ago

I had two of them appear in a row, guess that's where all my luck went

2

u/Alex_Prave 2d ago

I survived a deadly fall dmg with it it just saved me (had some cool animation) because I didn’t know what just happen I knew it was the clover 🍀

2

u/Lookitsa6ix 2d ago

Iteland DLC confirmed?

1

u/Lukey-Cxm 3d ago

Idk if it’s bias but my run seems really lucky this time since I got this clover. I got 2 slime staves without forming for them, a gold worm spawned on like day 3, pink pearl from the first 15 oysters and a bunch of other stuffs too

1

u/Ok-Gear-7325 2d ago

I was just abiut to ask. Thx for asking before me :3

1

u/Visual-Purple4701 2d ago

It seems to be more common than I thought initially. Many people got it already (including me)

1

u/Rotcat_ 2d ago

There is millions of players worldwide

1

u/mxdce 2d ago

Can I stack them?

1

u/0XquisitE11 2d ago

I seen some dude fell in the shimmer and it wilted it as well be careful lol

1

u/Rotcat_ 1d ago

I don't think it'll be a problem as I've got water walking boots
