Do items despawn in Terraria?
Yup, items in Terraria can definitely despawn, but there's a catch! The game allows up to 400 different items to be on the ground at the same time. Once you hit that limit, the oldest items start disappearing as new ones drop. So, if you're out adventuring and drop some loot to pick up later, just make sure you haven't hit the item cap, or you might lose some of your goodies.

Short answer: Yes, but only if you're a hoarder! Terraria can handle up to 400 items on the ground before it starts cleaning up, starting with the oldest first. So unless you're dropping stuff like it's going out of fashion, you should be fine.
Nah, items just chill there forever...until you hit the 400 item limit. Then, Terraria becomes a harsh mistress and starts the cleanup from the oldest. Lost my legendary sword that way. Not cool.
