Terraria – What’s the best way to find heart statues in terraria

terraria-mobile

My terraria world is expert mode version 1.3.0.7(mobile), large.I have defeated all mechanical bosses other than Skeletron Prime. I have decided to set up 2 or even 3 heart statues if possible with timers during boss battle as part of my “heath station” strategy.

I just wanted to know if there’s anything I can do to increase my chances of finding heart statues in the underworld. I seem to find other statues more often than heart statues as I have found more than 10 bat statues and 3-4 mana statues, but I have found only one heart statue so far. I spent a couple of days finding them but no luck. Can anyone suggest some places in the map where I can look out for? What’s the odds of me finding 2 more in my world? Thanks

Update: Found 2 more heart statues after a very long search, so I have 3 heart statues totally and defeating Skeletron Prime was too easy with 2.

There is no specific spawn for heart statues. Your only way to find them is to search for areas where statues are more common.

Therefore I suggest that you look out for underground cabins (see https://terraria.gamepedia.com/Underground_Cabin). They are randomly generated structures in the underground and cavern layer and normally spawn with 1 or 2 statues inside.

To easier locate such cabins you could use a metal detector (dropped from a nymph) which will show you nearby chests, which also almost exclusively spawn in such cabins. You could also use the spelunker potion for easier finding of underground cabins.
