Notes & Trivia

Dark Artist armor set
  • This costume is one of four costumes that became an actual armor set in Terraria through the crossover event of Dungeon Defenders II meets Terraria. Unlike the purely cosmetic costume, its counterpart in Terraria grants armor as well as two set bonus which focuses on a summoner build as to fit the flavor of Tower Defense.
  • This costume has unique animations for spawning, healing, death and the casting of Mana Bomb. Aside from those, this costume even has a unique tower skin set to go with.
  • The wallpaper depicts the Dark Arts Apprentice wielding the Staff of Ruin Icon.png Staff of Ruin, a mythical Magic Staff.
  • The Dark Arts Cleaver Icon'.png Dark Arts Cleaver's design is most likely based on this Apprentice costume. Of course due to the weapon being an axe, the Dark Arts Apprentice won't be able to wield it.
  • Dark Arts Apprentice does seem to share a common theme with the Ebonfire Warlord Squire - both costumes are themed around being dark and evil and both also displays blazing ebonfire.
  • The Flameburst tower mentioned in the flavor text of Erupting Pillar of Flame is referring to the predecessor of the Flamethrower tower from the days of Early Access. While the function of both towers differs greatly, they are identical in design so the flavor text might still hold some relevancy.
  • There is a slight visual error with two accessory icons in the wardrobe - The icons of Blazing Dark Shoes and Blazing Dark Shinguards are swapped with each other, meaning the former piece will be shown as the third/bottom piece while the latter is shown as the second/middle piece when in fact the actual accessories exhibited by the costume shows the opposite.
