Acquiring Chlorophyte Ore
Chlorophyte ore, a precious resource in Terraria, is essential for crafting powerful weapons, tools, and armor. It can be mined from the large, glowing clusters that spawn in the Chlorophyte Caverns, which become accessible after defeating Plantera, the mechanical boss.
To successfully mine Chlorophyte ore, you’ll need a high-tier pickaxe such as the Picksaw or Drax. Due to its durability, Chlorophyte ore cannot be collected with bombs, dynamite, or other explosives.
Exploring the Chlorophyte Caverns can be perilous, as enemies like Chlorophyte Goons and Chlorophyte Diggers inhabit these depths. It’s recommended to prepare with potions and buffs to enhance your defense, mobility, and spelunking abilities. Additionally, consider setting up safety measures such as campfires and heart lanterns to mitigate potential hazards.
Once you’ve acquired Chlorophyte ore, its versatility extends beyond crafting. It can also be used to forge Chlorophyte bars, which serve as a vital component in various crafting recipes. Chlorophyte bars are particularly valuable for creating the Pickaxe Axe and Shroomite Digging Claw, essential tools for excavating and unlocking new areas within the world of Terraria.
Locating the Underground Jungle Biome
The Underground Jungle is a biome found in the Hardmode layer of Terraria. It is characterized by its lush vegetation, glowing mushrooms, and large glowing crystals. The Underground Jungle is home to a variety of enemies, including Jungle Bats, Hornets, and Spore Bats. To locate the Underground Jungle, players should follow these steps:
- Defeat the Wall of Flesh boss to enter Hardmode.
- Explore the Underground layer of the world. The Underground Jungle is typically found near the bottom of the world, below the Cavern layer.
- Look for areas with a large number of glowing mushrooms. These mushrooms are a sign that you are near the Underground Jungle.
- Once you have found the Underground Jungle, you can start exploring it for Chlorophyte ore.
Here are some additional tips for locating the Underground Jungle:
| Tip | Description |
|---|---|
| Use the Dangersense Potion | This potion will highlight the location of nearby enemies, including those in the Underground Jungle. |
| Use a Spelunker Potion | This potion will reveal the location of all caves and tunnels on the map, making it easier to find the Underground Jungle. |
| Use a Hunter Potion | This potion will increase your movement speed and allow you to run through walls, making it easier to explore the Underground Jungle. |
Defeating Plantera
Plantera is a challenging boss that must be defeated in order to obtain Chlorophyte. Here are the steps to defeat Plantera:
- Summon Plantera: Destroy a Plantera bulb in the jungle.
- Use ranged weapons: Plantera is highly mobile, so it’s best to use ranged weapons to attack from a distance.
- Manage Tentacles: Plantera spawns numerous tentacles that will attack the player. These tentacles can be destroyed with weapons or by using the Terra Blade’s special ability, which releases homing projectiles that seek out and destroy tentacles.
- Dodge Spikes: Plantera will periodically shoot out spikes that can inflict significant damage. Dodge these spikes by moving constantly and staying at a distance from Plantera.
- Kill the Core: Once Plantera’s health is low enough, her core will be exposed. The core is the only part of Plantera that can be damaged, so focus on attacking it with ranged weapons until Plantera is defeated.
Here are some additional tips for defeating Plantera:
- Use potions such as regeneration potions, ironskin potions, and swiftness potions to improve your survivability.
- Consider using the Bewitching Table or Bewitching Station to craft a powerful summon, such as the Stardust Dragon or the Raven Staff, to assist you in the battle.
- Build a small arena with platforms to make it easier to dodge Plantera’s attacks and move around the battlefield.

Upgrading Equipment for Chlorophyte Mining
After the Wall of Flesh, several new tiers of weapons and armor become available. For mining Chlorophyte, these upgrades are essential to succeed.
Pickaxes
Regular pickaxes cannot mine Chlorophyte. Instead, you will need the Drax or the Pickaxe Axe. From there, the Shroomite Digging Claw and Terra Blade are the next upgrades.
Drills
Drills allow you to mine Chlorophyte faster, but they have a shorter range than pickaxes. The best drills in the pre-Plantera stage of the game are the Death Sickle and the Laser Drill.
Chainsaws
Chainsaws are more efficient for harvesting Chlorophyte than pickaxes or drills. However, they are also the most expensive to obtain and maintain.
Armor
To withstand the attacks of Chlorophyte enemies, you will need to upgrade your armor. Some of the best options include the Shroomite Armor and Titanium Armor.
Accessories
Several accessories can provide additional benefits while mining Chlorophyte. The Mining Potion enhances mining speed, while the Night Owl Potion increases mining yield. The Dangersense Potion and the Metal Detector can help you locate Chlorophyte ore.

To use the Clentaminator to obtain Chlorophyte, you must first fill it with Green Solution, which can be purchased from the Dryad NPC. Once you have Green Solution in the Clentaminator, you can use it to convert Stone blocks into Chlorophyte Ore blocks.
Fishing
Chlorophyte Ore can also be obtained through fishing in the Jungle biome. To fish for Chlorophyte Ore, you will need to use a Reaver Shark or a Picksaw, which are Hardmode fishing rods that can be obtained from the Angler NPC. You can also use Sonar Potions to increase your chances of catching Chlorophyte Ore.

Once you have Chlorophyte Seeds, you can use the Staff of Regrowth to plant them in the Jungle biome. The Chlorophyte Seeds will then grow into Chlorophyte Ore plants, which can be harvested to obtain Chlorophyte Ore.
Advanced Chlorophyte Farming Techniques
10. Green Solution and Herb Pots
Chlorophyte Ore spawns from Jungle Spores, which grow in the Jungle Biome. To optimize your Chlorophyte farming, it’s recommended to use Green Solution to enhance the Jungle’s jungle grass spread. Additionally, Herb Pots can be utilized in the Underground Jungle to further increase the number of Jungle Spores.
| Solution | Effect on Jungle Spores |
|---|---|
| Green Solution | Increases the speed at which Jungle Spores grow and spread |
| Herb Pots | Spawn Jungle Spores within the pot’s radius |
11. Jungle Rose
The Jungle Rose is an NPC that can be found in the Underground Jungle. When spoken to, she will sell Chlorophyte Ore for 2 Gold per piece. While this method is less effective than direct farming, it can be a convenient option if you have extra money to spare.
12. Chlorophyte Extractor

14. Automation
To further enhance your Chlorophyte farming, you can consider utilizing automation. This can be achieved with the use of automated farms or simply by using a grappling hook or other method to quickly collect the ore. Automation can save you time and effort, allowing you to farm Chlorophyte more efficiently.
How To Get Chlorophyte
Obtaining Chlorophyte in Terraria is a task that requires patience and preparation. To begin, players must conquer the mechanical bosses: The Destroyer, The Twins, and Skeletron Prime. Upon defeating these formidable foes, a new mineral known as Chlorophyte Ore will become available for mining in the Underground Jungle.
However, mining Chlorophyte Ore poses its own set of challenges. Players will need a Pickaxe with 200% mining power or higher, such as the Drax or Spectre Pickaxe. Additionally, Chlorophyte mimics will spawn when the ore is mined, so be prepared for combat.
Once the Chlorophyte Ore has been successfully mined, it can be smelted into Chlorophyte Bars. These bars are essential for crafting powerful weapons, armor, and accessories. Chlorophyte is also a valuable resource for building and decorating, as it emits a vibrant green glow.
