Corruption or Crimson, Which is Better?

- Terraria has two distinct evil biomes, but is one better than the other? Many people disagree on which biome is best, so in todays video I compare the corruption and the crimson side by side to try and determine if one is better to play.

Speaking from someone who just got into the community, can confirm. I got crimson first and that one is my favorite.

not for me i got crimson first but thought it was scary as a kid so i made another world to get corruption

You know you've achieved perfectly balanced gameplay when the players are split down the middle on which infectious biome is better yet they still love both.

Yeah
crimson straight up better

Corruption is better

i wish we had more mirrored exclusive biomes like this, imagine if there was a tundra alternative to golem and you could only have one
There was originally going to be more exclusive biomes. There was going to be a "Candy" biome to replace the hollow. A "Hell" biome would replace the Underworld. A biome called "Swamp" would replace the jungle.

crimson has piss book
end of discussion
Piss book is probably one of the most used items throughout a single playthrough alongside terraspark boots, SoC, BoC, and worm scarf

What about the drunk seed they have both biomes?
For people that doesn't know yet. You can buy the other world evils seeds from the dryad while she is in a graveyard biome in hardmode. With a little work creating artificial biomes you can easily get almost all loot in a single world.
It’s just a matter of accessibility and other than the expert mode accessories and ichor/flames the rest of the loot is useless by the time you could grow another biome

I hate spiders too but i choose crimson as i prefer the weapons and that the spiders are somewhat unavoidable as spider nest biomes are a thing
@@ashcat9344 I love spiders I also love some big spiders
I personally prefer crimson for the following reasons:
-the ichor debuff is rather useful in early hardmode
-Brain is more fun for me
-it’s easier to navigate early on (like you said) I don’t want to fall to my death 2,763 times
Well as corruption fan to prevent me from dying I kinda place block on all the chasm, or I can get shield fron the dungeon that make you resistantd to knockback

@@Nuh-uh4242you like low pitched farts and the sounds of rubbing frozen shit aginast the ground?
@@BusKittenwell described
I like the corruption more cause I like the color palette, music, its also softer look on my eyes, and I’ve kinda grown with using a corruption biome because I thought that crimson was too scary and would try to get out as quick as possible lol.
The similarities with minecraft caves is huge
Me personally,I like the crimson because I think it has a really good aesthetic
Also the crimson rod is really important to me
For me it's about equal but for a different reason
Corruption surface > crimson surface
Corruption underground < crimson underground
This is for music, aesthetic, enemy content, etc.

I feel like roles could also make a difference here, specifically melee and ranger. Corruption seems to have more stuff related to ranger while crimson is more related to melee
I think I prefer the Crimson, but having to deal with spiders (arachniphobia lol) and losing access to Wrath potions is a hard sell, even in exchange for Ichor. Still, you can always just hop to a disposable secondary world with the other evil biome no matter which one your main world has.
i myself do not like world hopping in my runs (just my preference) so i usually bring the dryad to a graveyard to get crimson seeds on a corruption world. and i can have both in coexistence ^.^
I like the crimson more because it was my first biome and it has many good weapons like the vampire knives, dart pistol and you can get ichor which is good to combine with dart pistol as ichor darts lower defense though the worm scarf is very useful
use the dryad to get ichor as you can get crimson seeds if you get her to a graveyard during hardmode.
@@hjrgfif you have mid-low defence then of course brain will be better
"It's harder to farm for burgers."

The Crimson lowkey scares the shit out of me
Well I mean it literally is a landscape made of FLESH, so that's why
indeed fuck the crimson music and vibe
the corruption is epic tho
@@dannythedarkkitten3995 Want to make it spookier? The landscape is technically not made of flesh, because to say it is would imply it's a biome brimming with decay, death, and decomposition, and that's what the corruption represents.
You know what the Crimson represents? Life.
Yeah, you're not walking into a land filled with flesh, you're walking in a living creature, mindlessly spreading its veins, organs, bones etc. Maybe you should reconsider before entering a crimson cavern, what you think it's water deep down there might just be digestive acid ;)

@@TazKoltinsay pal I don't think you're going to fight both of them at the same time

also you know you wouldnt have to fight both bosses at once right
For me it's always been like: Corruption has the less annoying enemies, Crimson has the cooler gear, Crimson has the money farming boss, Corruption has an easier boss, but also Crimson has a lot of red and that is a favorite color of mine lol
This said, I typically gen a corruption world anyways when doing a new character.
"Corruption has an easier boss"
I'm confused, for me BoC is way easier.
"Corruption has the less annoying enemies"
Eaters of souls spawning in ungodly amounts:
BoC is definitely easier ye
@@filewr8515 Odd, I've always found EoW to be easier. It can *get* harder than BoC, but only if you let it get out of control. Though, neither are exactly "difficult" either. Mayhaps save for Master Mode which is just kinda painful in all respects.
clinger when you enter hardmode: may i introduce myself
Why choose, then you can have both! Drunk world, or seeds from dryad in graveyard.
yes! drunk world for the win.
(seed: 5162020 for those who don't know yet)
05162020 use this seed for the drunk world
Using two worlds isn't cheating. I've asked about 20 people from different sites.
@High-Tier Trash I was actually curious of it originally. I was the one who asked. So I did real research with the help of the internet (finally using it for info purposes).
yes.
Also let's give props to the Terraria team for making an alternative to the Corruption that is almost exactly as much liked.
I wish they would do the same for the Hallow, could be cool as hell.

@@creamy_bruh2378 Nope, hell is the alternative for heaven.
@@doicaretho6851 don'
t you know about underworld/hell
@@creamy_bruh2378 yes, its' alternative is heaven
This decision is so damn hard. The highlight for corruption is the wrath potion for me, while for crimson it's ichor. Both are absolutely amazing in combat.
Get crimson seeds from the dryad. You can get it by putting her in a graveyard during hardmode. This allows you to get ichor. But base should be corruption as its better.
Crimson is so much better. I appreciate it's lore so much as this living, infesting thing that just wants to assimilate your world as it has done to so many others. Also the music is so good, it basically sounds like the biome is "waking up" to your presence as it tries to kill you and ultimately assimilate you into its being. It's aggressive, throwing everything at you like something out of Berserk's Eclipse, which makes it all the more frightening to you when it quickly erodes the world in Hardmode. It feels like you're running from it even more, given the danger it brings to you. Add onto the fact it feels like an alien presence, unnatural to your world, and you got yourself a good threat to deal with in the back your mind as you search the world for resources.
All in all I think Crimson is so much more effective in its role as an Evil Biome.
I’m glad I’m not the only one who compares Terraria to Berserk lol
"which evil biome is better, corruption or crimson?"
me, who switches between worlds constantly with the same character: yes
Yeaaaaah I switch constantly to get what I want xD
Gay. Dryad living in a hardmode graveyard sells evil biome seeds opposite to yours, so you can get both biomes in your world without using 2 worlds
@@tomatoessuck4878 I play console and have been cursed with eternal 1.3...
@@tomatoessuck4878 yes, but for early game for items like the vilethorn (for mage playthrough), you pretty much need to switch worlds unless you play on corruption.
@@woomynationDo you mean that Vilethorn is impossible to get if your world is corruption? If I got it right - it's not true. You can just fish in the artificially placed corruption biome to get crates, that have a chance to drop Vilethorn. Quite a stretch, I admit, but it leaves my soul more pure than if I would create a different world to get a certain item

Crimson.
And yes, vampire knives are the deciding factor since I can never remember to get health potions and it’s easy in boss fights to go on the defensive and dodge while healing.
I'll never understand why alot of people don't just make 2 worlds to reap the benefits of both on one character

@@Arkytiax Calamity mod is great. Only annoying thing for me is some bosses being near impossible. I gave up with Yharon Revengeance mode.
That's boring
2 months late to the conversation but it's mostly the challenge. It's a bit boring imo to be able to just make a new world if you don't get what you want and that's especially true if you like the way your world was loaded - be it geological features, progression, or simply because you're dedicated to seeing this world through.

Can’t deny the fact that Corruption has that epic soundtrack
IMO crimson has one of the best soundtracks
Ikr? Underground corruption's soundtrack is soooo good
@@notyourduck4306 it's a remix of all the cave music
I was thinking that I liked the crimson better because BoC but then the corruption music played and the nostalgia truck whacked me all the way back to the corruption
Actually I’m still new to terraria and all the music is great
Both biomes are awesome and cool, however its a bit hard for me to decide what biome i should choose next whenever starting upp an new world, but then i came upp the idea of choosing a different biome after playing in the other biome in my other world, which was pretty good choice for me.
The first time i played with my friends it was in a corruption world. I cant tell you how scary it was to just go around the map and suddenly see a flying worm with 7 eyes followed by 5 more of them. I like the crimson but corruption is my favorite.
The corruption music slaps harder than Anakin slapped younglings
Based
The surface crimson music (and boss 2, the theme of wall of flesh and the twins) is a banger for me and i also don't like the corruption music
@fun with alex plays don't worry. I won't kill you.
I may prefer crimson, but damn is the corruption music so much better
That means something
The crimson feels alive. It feels like something is watching you.
I think the fields of giant eyeballs in the background kinda gave it away
I mean, it IS alive. The bestiary goes into detail of how the entire biome is a hive mind.
@@CaptainWobbs Crimson is heavily like The Many from System Shock 2.

It's worth noting the building blocks each provide.
Crimson and corruption is like picking what version of the new Pokémon game you are gonna pick except terraria has both versions included on one copy

People always talk about the evil biomes’ color pallets but I never hear about how they expand in Hardmode. The corruption’s cursed flames turns its relatively monochrome color scheme to a purple and lime, which works well for its overall diseased, infected theme, while the crimson’s ichor expands upon its red, gory theme with a fitting yellow
Nobody really cares since even though the colors are technically there they appear rarely, so ppl focus on the main ones
There's also the crimsand which is black
Piss yellow
ok, and?
@@Yu-Gi-Oh36508 and hava
I choose both, since it's possible to obtain corruption or crimson seeds if you have their respective counterpart world, that way you can have both ichor and cursed flames, which personally is the biggest difference to me. Using both is so much fun..
2 years ago it was pretty split, but now after the buffs to the brain of confusion, the bladetongue, the drippler crippler, if you are a melee player there is really only one option
Corruption

I personaly prefer crimson because:
-Ichor
-Not as painful to travel early game
-Atmosphere
-Better weapons
agreed
Understandable
I can agree but early game I think corruption is easier to move through (besides the underground for the orbs / hearts)
Crimson : ichor
Corruption : cursed fire
So, crimson is OP
You mean gods piss?
Glad you can play with both
what about brain of confusion? Instead of getting less damage, you can just skip damage sometimes, for example, it can safe you from dying to the boss and give you chance to get healed by the nurse
My only reason for corruption being my favorite is how fun the music is! It also just feels so creative when they put the leitmotif in the underground theme and its almost like they wanted to trick you with the intro being the normal underground theme.
As a German I got really confused at the Word Leitmotif until I Realized it’s the exact same wird in German
Well, underground crimson also has that motif, however its a bit more distorted.
I personally like the crimson underground music more.
Good respectful conversation about music y’all
I prefer crimson in other aspects, but man you are 100% correct about how good the corruption music is. Crimson music gets annoying and boring, corruption music EPIC
I prefer crimson's music, it match the environment and biome, and gives a vibe that i am in a place that i shouldn't be at, especially underground crimson. ALSO 1:31 of underground crimson music
I just wanna quickly mention this but, you forgot the brain of confusion. That accessory CARRIED my entire melee master mode playthrough and I cannot list how many times that thing saved my life.
i also cant list how many times it saved my life
I also can't remember the number of deaths that didn't happen during my master mode summoner playthrough, but I have to give the reminder that it was nerfed in the last update, it isn't the lifesaver it once was, my gratitude remains the same though
@@afeathereddinosaur I mean, it's still has the same life saving ability since it's dodge chance wasnt reduced
@@songbirdrohan3973 Yeah, the confusion was a big helper for me though, enemies not going at me was very helpful
Imagine being a worm scarf
I rather take no damage than take less damage.
honestly, i like both. as someone whose first evil biome was the crimson, i sorta got used to it till i began my first expert mode playthrough. i was playing on seed 05162020 (drunk world) which has both corruption and crimson i chose drunk world as at the time i preferred the crimson. the eater of worlds boss for me was kinda annoying when facing it for the first time but only because i didn't know piercing weapons shredded it at the time. i now use spiky balls if i get a goblin army and spam them in the underground corruption however the brain of cthulu was literally rng for me. i managed to the get the muramasa early by killing a dungeon slime which spawned next to the first golden chest (in drunk world dungeon generates under a living tree with differently colored leaves and the first golden chest generates *ABOVE* the dungeon guardian cutoff line allowing you to open it with a golden key) so yeah i go to underground crimson set up only 2 massive platforms bc of the steroid abusing annoying ass blood crawlers which came up on screen every 2 seconds smash a single orb (for some reason both crimson hearts and shadow orb count when u break them i broke 2 shadow orbs before that and thus a single broken heart pissed off the brain) and the creepers ain't much of problem they go down quick thanks to godly muramasa but the third phase where brain makes illusions of itself is absolute bullshit the brain keeps surrounding u with its illusions and if all 4 illusions manage to touch u take significant dmg i died twice before killing it but brain of confusion is definitely worth it saved a ton of hits multiple times anyways for biome chests the vampire knifes are super stronk jus the fact that healing reduced in expert is kinda nuts however the scourge of the corruptor is *ABSOLUTELY CRACKED* does more dmg than terra blade helped me kill the duke I'd say both r solid, the scourge is useful for shredding boss and vampire knives life saving during fights if u cant heal I'd say crimson enemies are much more annoying than corruption enemies (with the exception of master mode devourers💀)
altho i like crimson cavern layout more than corruption dat is my honest opinion on both biomes
I like alternating between them for each world I create
Ya know, it's weird. Purple is my favorite color, I love eldritch creatures, and adore the theming of the corruption, but I vastly prefer the crimson. Something about its environment just feels better and scratches some sort of itch, same reason I love the Plague Flight from Flight Rising and the whole idea behind the Mystery Flesh Pit.
Something about a fleshy landscape and venturing into the maw of the beast to face the source of the heinous creature infecting and spreading across the land is just so satisfying to me

I have seen 2 polls one of TH-cam and the other on Twitter where they we're both at 50/50.
I've always been a corruption player, I played the game very early into its release on mobile as a kid, I still remember getting the update the crimson was added in. The flesh theme, enemies and especially the brain of cuthulu were scary to kid me so whenever I was making a new world I'd delete any that spawned with crimson as the world evil and only play corruption worlds. I don't hate the crimson now but I guess old habits die hard, I only play corruption worlds because the crimson still is a bit more freaky to me. I'm so used to the corruption i just feel at home, the boss and enemies are easy even just starting a new play through and it's no problem in hard mode either. Maybe some day I'll become a crimson fan but for now I'm still a corruption fan
You forgot the vilethorn, a sadly underappreciated mage weapon.
I feel most mages on expert and master mode will agree that having this thing can be a godsend against most pre-hard mode enemies.
One cast rapidly ticks out damage and can slow down most enemies to a near halt without pushing them around.
Base 10 mana, 10 damage, up to 7 ticks of damage on all enemies it touches, a reach of 15 tiles, and block-piercing? Super helpful.
honestly i just use vilethorn for eow
True, you can stunlock those damned hornets sooo easily
He mentioned it at the end dude
i don't like it, I love the wos
But it's good too
Vilethorn makes EoW a joke honestly. It is literally always my first magic weapon as well because of the stunlock alone.
Some people: argue about corruption vs crimson
Me: i love the random choice
I just made my first world on my PS4 and I chose random too. I haven’t gotten the crimson before but I got it this time
I always get crimson when I choose random
@Pack All Gaming 05162020 seed is not it?
Drunk seed: why not both?
The brain of confusion got a huge buff
am i wierd for never using buffs for boss fights? i always forget to buff until after the boss is summoned, by which time it's too late to run back to base and get my potions. and the only potion i actually carry with me is health.

Lol candice
Well, personally, I just choose one or the other, and if I need something from the other biome I just create a new world.
Pretty simple.
I wish people would take more advantage of the fact that you can use different characters on different worlds. This isn't Minecraft.
@Ryan Munyon it really isn’t because you have to still do things to gather what you need. If your world didn’t have chlorophyte (impossible but a what if) is it cheating to get it from another world? No because you’d still have to get it.
@Ryan Munyon no it doesn’t taking away the challenge would be being able to get it instantly. You still have you put in time and effort doesn’t take any of the challenge if anything it adds more because you have to use more time to get something from another world for example like a biome key.
@Ryan Munyon I’m just explaining that it doesn’t take any challenge away and it’s not cheating, of course you can play however you want never said you couldn’t.
@Ryan Munyon Same here dude.
Not sure if it's because I play on master mode most of the time. I like to play on crimson map (although I always choose random) because of the BoC accessory. Dodging one attack is so much more beneficial than damage reduction since the enemy hit so hard.
how i choose which one i want
if i want good gear crimson
if i wanna vibe to music corruption
Easier way: just make 2 worlds.
Drunk seed: am I a complete joke to you?
@@waterized_bottle drunk seed is best seed
@@waterized_bottle what about for console players huh
@@waterized_bottle you’re not funny kid

Corruption holds sentimental value, though I just realised that Crimson has been around for like 80% of the game's lifespan, still it has less character to me
You could play on the drunk seed
@@thecourier206 yup. It has both corruption and crimson, plus the party girl instead of the guide if anyone is having trouble getting her to move in
The corruption is og it's been the before they added the crimson
Both are amazing… it feels like you can have a unique game by simply changing the evil biome even tho they basics are mega similar
I personally like the Crimson way more. The corruption feels more like an otherwordly landscape, however the Crimson in my opinion fulfills the role of "nope, don's wanna go there, ever" much more efficiently. It's kinda scary. And that's why i love it so much.
Crimson: I have good gun and good stuff
Corruption: WaLk In HoLe
*HOLE*
lmaoooo
how dare you say undertaker is better than musket
@@Burger19985 he's probably talking about dart pistol
Drunk seed be like:so you gonna choose or what? Oh well just use this seed
I prefer the crimson in my main world, but i always make a second world for corruption items
Yeah I did that because the corruption has too many holes, I thought the EoW was a nice boss fight, it was in my first world but crimson is a bit better and I only say that because the wood looks nice. I got corrupt seeds from EoC in my secondary corruption world, so I have corruption in my world. It's says: Your world is 3% Crimson, 1% Corrupt, and 4% Hallow. You're so close!

@@Pikachuboi1047 (Name Of World) Is 99% Hollow And 1% Crimson You Have a Lot Of Work To do
ye mainly crimson likes healing
Sick vid, wow!
Expert mode Eater of Worlds drop is just too good to give up on.
the face monster things still scare me even with a zenith in my hand lmaooo
No
in what way?
Am I the only one who's scared of how big those eyes in the Crimson backround are😳
@Lucille Liddic like whoever they came from must be bigger than moonlord
👁
*cough cough culthu cough cough*
fr why do i think they're cute-
@@mr.lordstarscream1570 the eyes are bigger. Much, much bigger.
what world evil i choose depends on the mods i play for some reason
if its calamity its always crimson, anything else and its corruption
I think, like most, I tended to favour the corruption for the longest time because of the nostalgia. I played Terraria from day 1. However I now found myself picking crimson more often, not just because I haven't played it as much, but because I think the theme and design is so much cooler. All that said, what I really like to do is make use of seeds like the drunk seed so I can get both. Why choose!
I just like the satisfying sound of piercing weapons on the eow
