Notes[]

  • While Lepus can drop Souls of Might, they do not have a use in pre-Hardmode as they cannot be used to make anything without a Hardmode Anvil or other Hardmode-exclusive materials.
  • Unlike souls obtained from the other mechanical bosses, the Souls of Might are relatively easy to collect because, rather than dropping far away or high in the air, they drop from the body segment of The Destroyer that is closest to the player, often so close to the player that they may be instantly picked up.

Tips[]

Trivia[]

  • The Soul of Might is the only type of soul directly stating the boss it is dropped from in its tooltip.
    • However, despite the tooltip claiming the soul to be 'The essence of the destroyer', it is also rarely dropped by Lepus.
