How to Get a Metal Detector in Terraria
Getting a Metal Detector in Terraria is all about defeating the Nymph, one of the rare enemies in the game. These tricky characters spawn in the Cavern layer. It's not a guaranteed drop, but keep at it! The Nymph has a 50% chance to drop the Metal Detector, so you might have to face her a few times before you snag your prize.
