Hellstone Bars are bars crafted from Hellstone and Obsidian. They craft some of the most powerful equipment available pre-Hardmode, and remain useful, if not necessary, in dealing with the shift in difficulty. Notably, the Molten Pickaxe is one of only two pre-Hardmode pickaxes capable of mining the first tier of Hardmode ores, Cobalt and Palladium, the other one being the Reaver Shark.

Crafting all items on PC version PC, Console version Console, Mobile version Mobile, Old Chinese version Old Chinese, tModLoader version tModLoader, and tModLoader 1 tModLoader Legacy, excluding the Hellfire Arrow, requires 192 Hellstone Bars.
