Ah, Ocram. This name is whispered in quiet tones by veteran Terraria players. Often, it is followed by a sigh or a shrug. If you wonder about Ocram in Terraria, you are in the right place. Let’s explore the depths of Terraria history and discover the story of this boss.
Ocram: The Phantom Boss of Terraria Past
Ocram was once a real boss in Terraria. This was true for the Old-gen console and Mobile versions. It was special content for players on those platforms. But like many things in gaming, Ocram’s time was limited.
The Great Vanishing Act: Ocram’s Removal
So, what happened to Ocram? In a move that confused some players, Ocram was removed from updated versions of Terraria. Yes, gone. This happened in 2017. It marked the end of an era for console and mobile players.
The reason for this change? It wasn’t a grand conspiracy. The developers felt Ocram did not fit the vision of an evolving Terraria. Some suggested Ocram lacked the charm of other bosses. The goal was uniformity across all platforms. Thus, during the 1.3 update, Ocram was removed along with other console content.
Where to Find the Ghost of Ocram
Now, before you search for Ocram in your world, let’s clarify: you won’t find it. In the current versions of Terraria, Ocram does not exist. It is like searching for a dinosaur in your backyard – technically interesting, practically impossible.
Yet, like any ghost story, echoes remain. Ocram still lives in certain older versions. If you dust off an old console or engage with the Terraria: Calamity Adventure mod, you may find Ocram. In this mod, Ocram reappears as a final boss. While retired from the main game, Ocram exists in these nostalgic expansions. Explore more about
Summoning the Specter (If You Can)
For those on older versions where Ocram remains, summoning this ghostly boss requires nighttime in a Hardmode world. You cannot summon Ocram at will. You must wait until night in a Hardmode world. The summoning item is the “Suspicious Looking Skull.”
Crafting this skull is not easy. You will need to gather a specific collection of items. These include 20 Souls of Light, 8 Souls of Night, 6 Lenses, 30 Bones, 15 Iron or Lead Bars, and 10 Adamantite or Titanium Bars. Gather these, and you can create the skull. Use it when the moon is high to call upon Ocram.
Ocram’s Loot: Treasures of a Bygone Era
If you defeat Ocram in versions where it is possible, you gain unique rewards. Ocram was the only source of Souls of Blight. These items dropped only from Ocram. Moreover, Ocram was the only enemy that dropped Adamantite Ore in those old versions. This made Ocram a valuable target.
Souls of Blight: The Spectral Remnants
Speaking of Souls of Blight, these items are connected to Ocram. As noted, Ocram was the
Ocram’s Razor: A Blade from the Past with a Modern Twist
Now, here’s where things become interesting. Even if Ocram is gone from modern Terraria, a strange item called “Ocram’s Razor” still exists. This razor serves a specific function: summoning Mechdusa.
Summoning Mechdusa: The Razor’s Edge
Mechdusa is a strong boss. It is a mechanical fusion of The Twins, The Destroyer, and Skeletron Prime. Yes, Ocram’s Razor is crucial for summoning Mechdusa. You can use it anytime to call forth this boss.
Availability and the “Everything” Seed
But there is a caveat. Ocram’s Razor is not present in every world. Its crafting ties specifically to the “Everything” seed (or “Celebrationmk10”). Only in these worlds can you create Ocram’s Razor. If you find it in a different world, its description reads: “It has no effect in this world.” Quite the paperweight!
The Getfixedboi Seed and Mechdusa’s Nightly Surprise
Let’s discuss the “Getfixedboi” seed. In worlds made with this seed, expect complications. If you break a Demon or Crimson Altar and haven’t defeated any mechanical boss, Mechdusa has a 1 in 20 chance of spawning
Terraria’s Bestiary of Bosses: Ocram and Company
Ocram, despite its removal, ties into the larger list of Terraria bosses. Some have also been removed from newer games or exist only in specific scenarios. Let’s mention a couple.
Turkor the Ungrateful: The Thanksgiving Turkey Boss
Do you Turkor the Ungrateful? Most likely not, unless you played on older consoles or Windows Phone/3DS versions. Turkor was also removed from modern Telegram. This giant turkey served as a Thanksgiving-themed boss exclusive to those older platforms. So, no Thanksgiving turkey fights in current Terraria.
Lepus: The Easter Bunny of Doom
Lepus is seasonal, unlike Ocram and Turkor. This terrifying Easter bunny isn’t entirely gone. Lepus appears during Easter time. Change your device’s date to April to summon Lepus. If you want to battle this corrupted bunny out of season, use the calendar trick.
Mechdusa: The Modern Mechanical Behemoth
Now let’s return to Mechdusa, tied to Ocram’s Razor. You can summon Mechdusa with Ocram’s Razor. However, it can also spawn naturally at dusk (7:30 PM in Terraria) if you have destroyed a Demon or Crimson Altar and not defeated all mechanical bosses. This natural spawn chance is rare at 5%.
As for Mechdusa’s power, it has the highest HP
of any enemy, even suring the Moon Lord. Summoning Mechdusa is no small task. It will challenge even veteran players. If you seek the
