===As source of profit - Some maths===
Some players consider it profitable to hunt large numbers of '''Terranites''' and trade their loot.
Some players consider it profitable to hunt large numbers of '''Terranites''' and trade their loot.
* Average profit from a single Terranite assuming you sell all drops to a NPC: 0.06*100 + 0.05*250 + 0.05*100 + 0.002*2500 + 0.002*2500 + 0.002*2500 = '''38.5 GP'''. This is a small number, especially when we consider efforts that are needed to kill a Terranite. However, all items dropped by Terranite are worth much more when sold to other players. In such case, average profit from a single Terranite can be about: 0.06*900 + 0.05*18000 + 0.05*2000 + 0.002*40000 + 0.002*15000 + 0.002*35000 = '''~1200 GP''', which is a '''totally''' different story (prices taken from [[ManaMarket]] statistics).

* Keep in mind that this is an average profit. What it means is that it does not apply when you kill a single Terranite, it means that when you kill 100 Terranites, your profit will be '''about''' 1200*100 = 120,000 GP.

* The speed of your income dependes on how fast you can kill Terranites. They have a big HP, and thus it takes a while to kill one. A skilled archer can kill a Terranite in 30 seconds, but high-level players might do that even faster, especially if they have great AGI or deal huge damage. Taking 30sec/terra for calculations, we get 120 Terranites per hour. That gives profit equal to 120*1200gp/h = '''144'000gp/h'''.

* Your actual profit will be lower. This is because 1) you are never hunting Terranites 100% of your time, sometimes you wait for them to respawn 2) you need to subtract the cost of arrows/spells and healing items, if you need them 3) sometimes nobody wants to buy a particular item.

This proves that '''Terranites''' are not as efficient source of profit as [[Red Slime|Red Slimes]], which - in ideal conditions - can provide '''180'000gp/h''', mainly because they are very quick to kill and are usually found in big quantities. However, if you wish to gain more EXP while gathering money, or are looking for some [[Terranite Ore]] for your own uses, '''Terranites''' continue to be profitable mobs.

== Story - The "intelligent" Terranite==  
Terranites are only found in deepest caves named Terranite Caves by Manaworldians. They constantly live under the surface because their body is not adapted to see light.

Actually, in the opposite of many other monsters, Terranites are intelligent living forms, more intelligent than manaworldians themselves. You may wonder what's the proof of that ?
'''Terranites''' are only found in the deepest caves, named "The Terranite Caves" by Manaworldians. They constantly live under the surface because their body is not adapted to see light.
Well, you could find it by sitting and observing both communities, even if you can see a lower nomber of Terranites than Manaworldians. Here are fundamental different aspects:

* While Manaworldians hunt Terranites for the rare and rich items they carry on, Terranites never come to fight Manaworldians to stole their items. Every single fight between a Manaworldian and a Terranite involves an attacking Manaworldian and a defending Terranite. You can find only one exception... when Terranites join the chaos sometimes taking place in Hurnscald, to have a taste of revenge against Manaworldians looters.

I have noticed other characteristics of Terranites investigating on them, such as:
* You can find Terranites in great depth range under the earth, but also on the frozen surface. In fact, their skin looks so evoluted that they can survive in many environments. They are almost insensitive to variations of temperature. However, they are very light sensitive, but they make excellent light-stopping full-body armors as a remedy.

They are almost insensitive to variations of temperature. However, they are very light sensitive, but they make excellent light-stopping full-body armors as a remedy.
* They make strong and extremely light armors from an unknown ore only sometimes found on them, hence called the ''Terranite Ore''. Amethysts, Sapphire or other precious gems are rare and really hard to find, but you can still find them digging. However, no Manaworldian have ever found a single Terranite Ore except dropped or abandoned by a Terranite...

He will be able to sell it a high price to others, or even to attempt making his own Terranite Armor. However, some intrepid ones have even tried to loot a dead Terranite in order to steal its armor, certainly to become even richer or to get the armor faster. But read well... I was amazed to see that none have been able to loot a dead Terranite's armor. The armor seems clearly moving when the Terranite is still alive, but as soon as it dies, the armor rigidifies and becomes incredibly heavy, to finally explode after a certain time.

It's hard to describe because they manage to move into rocks faster than into the air. This could explain why they respawn so quickly after one of them dies, or how fast they travel to join Hurnscald's chaos and have their revenge on Manaworldians.

The Terranite is a rare, strong, and aggressive monster, that looks like a player wearing a complete set of The Terranite Armor. It's the only natural source of Terranite Ore. Terranites can be found only in the Terranite Cave, which is in the caves of the Woodland area to the West of Hurnscald, and the Troll Cave, which you will find SouthWest of Tulimshar, deep in the caves.

As source of profit - Some maths

Some players consider it profitable to hunt large numbers of Terranites and trade their loot.

  • Average profit from a single Terranite assuming you sell all drops to an NPC: 0.06*100 + 0.05*250 + 0.05*100 + 0.002*2500 + 0.002*2500 + 0.002*2500 = 38.5 GP. This is a small number, especially when we consider efforts that are needed to kill a Terranite. However, all items dropped by Terranite are worth much more when sold to other players. In such case, average profit from a single Terranite can be about: 0.06*900 + 0.05*18000 + 0.05*2000 + 0.002*40000 + 0.002*15000 + 0.002*35000 = ~1200 GP, which is a totally different story (prices taken from ManaMarket statistics).
  • Keep in mind that this is an average profit. What it means is that it does not apply when you kill a single Terranite, it means that when you kill 100 Terranites, your profit will be about 1200*100 = 120,000 GP.

Story - The "intelligent" Terranite

* Disclaimer: The comments here are not the opinion of all players or Wiki editors, but have been left here for fun.

Terranites are only found in the deepest caves, named "The Terranite Caves" by Manaworldians. They constantly live under the surface because their body is not adapted to see light. Unlike many other monsters, Terranites are intelligent living forms, more intelligent than Manaworldians themselves. You may wonder what's the proof of that?
