How to Favorite Items in Terraria

While playing Terraria, you have to carry a number of items in your inventory that assist you at some point. Among all the items, a few of them are pretty valuable, and you don’t want to lose them by accidentally removing them from your inventory.

In such a case, you can mark such items as favorite in Terraria that prevents you from mistakenly throwing them out of your inventory.

If you’ve also found this feature quite useful, here’s how to use it.

Steps to Favorite Items in Terraria

Before moving forward, it’s worth noting that the Favourite Items feature is only available for PC and Mac users. Moreover, favorite items cannot be quickly stacked, quick trashed, thrown, or deposited until they’re removed from the favorite list. Here’s how to favorite an item:

Note: The item will be removed from the favorite list once you add it into the equipment slot and move it back to the inventory.

Unfortunately, Terraria mobile players can’t favorite the items at the moment, and they can expect it in a later update.

How to Favorite Items in Terraria

People have been wondering how to favorite items in Terraria, because by marking an item as a favorite, it will prevent you from accidentally removing it from your inventory. Further, favorite items cannot be quick stacked, quick trashed, thrown, or deposited until the favorite status has been removed. Here’s how to do it!

Terraria Favorite Items | PC, Xbox One, PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch

Before anything else, you should know that you can only technically “favorite” an item in Terraria for the PC and Mac. There is a similar, but different mechanic for consoles which we will cover in a bit! But first, in order to favorite an item in Terraria on Mac and PC, do the following:

Keep in mind, however, that if you put a favorite item into your equipment slots then put it back into your inventory, the favorite status will be removed and you will have to Alt. click once more to favorite it.

Console Controls: D-Pad Hotbar

This is important to keep in mind: Binding an item to your D-Pad is NOT the same thing as marking it as a favorite. For one, console versions of the game do not have the same “quick trash” function that the computer versions do. Inventory organization is a bit more tedious because of this, but it also largely prevents accidentally removing items you want to keep.

In order to assign or bind an item to your D-Pad, and mark it as a favorite on Xbox One and PlayStation 4, simply do the following:

By doing so, you can immediately equip that item to the hotbar by pressing the direction button you assigned it to.

Nintendo Switch: Radial Hotbar

Unfortunately, there is no way to favorite an item in Terraria on Nintendo Switch. You will have to content yourself with the radial hotbar. To use it, hold the left bumper to pull up your buffing items or the right bumper to open the hotbar. Use the analog stick to point at the desired item and, when it is highlighted, release the button and it will be equipped.

Nintendo just has to do things a little differently, don’t they? Hope that cleared things up on how to favorite items in Terraria!

Favorite: Copper Pickaxe.
It would be EXTREMELY difficult to complete the game without mining any ores. Fishing could get you the ores, but you would need good bait in order to get crates or a Reaver Shark.

Least Favorite: Bee armor.
Aside from mods, this is the only pre-hardmode summoner class armor. Bee armor is pretty good itself, but as the ONLY option? It should be better if you are supposed to take it to Hardmode. In my opinion.

Favourite would be the Phantasm. I love bows, and it’s the best bow in the game.
Least favourite would be the coin gun. I’ve farmed for it, still haven’t gotten one.

Least Favorite: Brain Of Confusion. This item may be a reason that I don’t play on Crimson worlds as much, and when compared to the worm scarf, it’s useless.

Favorite: Holy Arrows. Thier DPS is just disgisting, and if you thought a Dadaleus Stormbow with them was op, try a Chlorophyte Shotbow or Phantasm

Least Favorite: Any easily gotten, non-stackable item. If I need to explain, I’m gonna cry.
