Abit About this Guide
I've noticed that there aren't that many good achievement steam guides for Terraria, and having as many hours as I do I decided to make this guide for you guys. This guide has taken me 6 consecutive days to write, even then it's still going to get improved throughout days to come. I hope this helps you and I hope this is an easy to follow guide for you.

First of all, what is PreHardmode and Hardmode?
Throughout this guide you'll notice some sections are categorised under 'Hardmode' or 'Prehardmode' achievements. Unlike what it sounds like, this does not relate to the difficulty you select before your world creation, PreHardmode simply refers to your world before you kill the Wall of Flesh and Hardmode refers to your world after you kill the Wall of Flesh. This is really important as killing the Wall of Flesh majorly changes your world. Think of it as unlocking extra game content but the extra game content is 70% of the entire game.
Before you kill the wall of flesh (Prehardmode) the world is very simplistic with simple mobs that do quite little damage and don't have as much health. Once you kill the wall of flesh you'll gain access to more enemies, NPCs, crafting recipes, armor, weapons as well as overall more exploration content.

Building-related
No Hobo
What counts as 'suitable' housing?No Hobo
Build a house suitable enough for your first town NPC, such as the guide to move into.
Something that may not be so obvious is you need to build a house with specific requirements if you want to move the guide (first NPC you encounter) into your new home.
For your house to be suitable you need to:
- Cover your 'box' you created out of blocks with walls. Walls are crafted at the crafting bench, one of (mostly) any block will craft you 4 walls of that block. To fill your house up easier use the Auto-place feature by toggling this using Ctrl on your keyboard. This will fill the box up much quicker than you manually placing each wall with your cursor. If you misplace any walls, craft yourself a hammer and you can remove the misplaced walls.
- Contain atleast one door OR platforms leading into the room/house. You can craft platforms without a crafting bench however you need to craft doors at the crafting bench. The standard door is crafted out of wood, the same with platforms.
Place the door on the sides of the box as should be. Platforms have more freedom as you can place them on the sides or on the roof of your house. Be careful when placing them on the sides in substitute for doors as not only you can pass through them, unwanted mobs and enemies will be able to pass through also. - Light the interior of the house with a light source. The easiest light source to obtain is the torch. You can craft one at your work bench with the use of 1 wood and 3 gel. Gel is obtained from slimes, those blue/green blobs you see during day time, they don't spawn at night time so gather your resources carefully.

If you fail your first attempt at fighting her that's no big deal you can venture back down to the hive and collect some resources which you'll need to craft the boss summon.

Bosses (Hardmode)
Buckets of Bolts
The Titanium TrinityBuckets of Bolts
Defeat the three nocturnal mechanical menaces: the Twins, the Destroyer, and Skeletron Prime.

The Great Southern Plantkill
How to Summon PlanteraThe Great Southern Plantkill
Defeat Plantera, the overgrown monstrosity of the jungle's depths.
Every time you kill the three mechanical bosses (doesn't have to be on the same night) 1 Plantera bulb will spawn in the cavern layer of your jungle biome. Looking for this bulb can be a pain to look for so I recommend killing the three bosses a few times. Once you do find the Pink coloured plant bulb use your pickaxe and Plantera will spawn. A note to take in, the bulb emits light and can be spotted on your map, so if you fully explored the underground jungle you have the best chances of finding it on the fullscreen map. It will even say its a Plantera bulb when you hover your cursor over it.
Fish Out of Water
How to Summon Duke FishronFish Out of Water
Defeat Duke Fishron, mutant terror of the sea.
You will need a bug net as well as a fishing rod to summon the boss. Venture down to the glowing mushroom biome and you will see a small worm wriggling around. I recommend making your mushroom biome flat-surfaced as the worms are very quick and can escape very easily. Use your best mobility accessories for the best chances of catching the worm. Once you have a worm or two cast your line at any of the Ocean biomes and once the line gets yanked you'll soon find your big catch.
Lihzahrdian Idol

Just Desserts
How to spawn Queen SlimeJust Desserts
Defeat Queen Slime, giving the coup-de-grace to the sovereign of all that jiggles.
To spawn the Queen slime you need the Gelatin Crystal, to find them you to venture down into the underground hallow. Look for locations where specifically Crystal shards form. One of those crystals will be a gelatin crystal instead. You'll know you've found it when you see a sparkly animated pink crystal formation which fades in and out of purple to pink. It's roughly the same size as a crystal shard. Mine it with your pickaxe to collect it and use it in the Hallow surface.
Fae Flayer
How to Spawn The Empress of LightFae Flayer
Defeat the Empress of Light, responsible for all those flashy lights and glitter.
This boss will be spawnable after you kill Plantera, however it is recommended for you to gain powerful gear as this is a very hard boss, think of grinding for Golem or Duke Fishron gear. To spawn her you need to kill a Prismatic Lacewing which is a rare Hallow surface mob you find at night. You can also catch the Prismatic Lacewing with your bug net and release it to spawn the boss later. Don't do this boss during the day as she will become enraged therefore much harder than her form at night.

Fungal FriendIt Can Talk?!
Build a house in a mushroom biome and have the Truffle move in.
To move the truffle in the house needs to be near a glowing mushroom biome. You can either build a house beside one you've already discovered in your world or make an artificial one on the surface to save some travel time. You can do this by placing 200 mud blocks and placing a bunch of glowing mushroom seeds which will spread the biome across the mud, eventually forming a glowing mushroom biome.

Servant-in-Training
What are angler quests?Servant-in-Training
Complete your 1st quest for the angler.
The Angler is an NPC which you obtain by going to the surface edges of your world. You'll encounter an Ocean biome. Search around for a boy that's sleeping either on the shore, underwater or floating in the water. If you don't find him he's most likely on the other side of your world (the other ocean biome). Once you move in the Angler NPC he will give you quests on fetching certain fish once per day. He'll state the fish's location so you have an easier time finding the fish. Bring it to him and he'll give you some rewards for it.

If you didn't find the Angler's quest-fetching tedious enough...
No one blames you if you don't want to do this legit. I did and it was a nightmare, so below I linked a world you can download to get your quest fish instead of having to go out of your way to gather the fish. (This world isn't made by me).
