I normally go pure mage, and, in doing so, wind up getting everything for pure summoner as well. I play with a friend that's in LOVE with Melee and Ranged, and he has a habit of whining a bit when he goes to "Farm for things" as he put it. Terra Blade *WAS* a great sword, and yeah, he made it, but at that time, I had my equipment STACKED and was out-damaging him everywhere.
I think my favourite full arsenal equipment is either Damage Spectre Armor, with full Menacing: "Fishron Wings", "Frostspark Boots", "Mana Flower", "Ankh Shield", and "Celestial Cuffs" or full Tiki Armor with, again, full Menacing "Fishron Wings", "Frostspark Boots", "Papyrus Scarab", "Ankh Shield", and "Pygmy Necklace".
It's utterly horrifying to just walk into an invasion and sit there, occasionally tossing out a razorblade saw to murder a few things, while your Sharknadoes brutally, and VERY bloodily, turn everything into chum and mush.
About the only thing I can't fight with that latter build is My Rival, Duke Fishron.... Seriously, STILL my favourite boss, even after the Moon Itself comes to attack me.
