I have the crimson (NOT corruption), killed the WoF, but i only get Demon Altars. They have the graphics of Crimson Altars, but when i mouse over them it says: Demon Altar. I've destroyed a bunch of these crimson looking Demon Altars and all i get is Palladium / Adamantite / Orichalum. Why wont the titanium spawn?

1ok, so i need to keep breaking altars and hope it will eventually pop some titanium. thx– DangerMonkeyDec 13, 2013 at 16:14

3I believe that any single world will only get one of the ores from each tier. Breaking more altars will continue to give you Adamantite instead of Titanium.– ken.ganongDec 13, 2013 at 16:16

The tool-tip for Crimson Altars is Demon Altar. This is a bug in the game. Both Demon Altars and Crimson Altars can spawn the alternative ores. The one you get is random and not linked to the crimson/corruption of the world. Your world gets one ore from each tier by random.
Hardmode Tier 1 | Cobalt OR Palladium
Hardmode Tier 2 | Mythril OR Orichalcum
Hardmode Tier 3 | Adamantite OR Titanium

Note you have to create a new world and see if destroying altars there will spawn different ores. Dec 13, 2013 at 16:28

1If you quit without saving after breaking the 1st, 2nd or 3rd altar, you can re-roll whether the old or new ore type spawns.– kotekzotDec 13, 2013 at 17:29

The reason you wont get Titanium is that it is a 50/50 chance to get cobalt/pallidium, orichalum or mythril, and adamantite or titanium, you got adamantite, but getting demon alters instead of crimson doesn't matter, its just a bug.
