Switch I'm stuck. I need help defeating a hardmode boss.

[FierceNebula]

I'm doing a defensive hybrid summoner melee run in master mode, and, I need to defeat a boss. Now, I've built a good arena (3 floors, 240 wide, all buffs) I just need help with what gear to use.

 

[FierceNebula]

No, I haven't gathered gear that needs killing bosses or intense grinding, I don't want to waste my time with grinding for gear if it ends up being not good.

Use your hellbridge and unicorn mount to kite QS on a straight path and use either Flying Knife, Chain Guillotines, or Bananarang to attack.

Do this until you get both Blade Staff and Gelatinous Pillion. Now you fight the Twins with your new gear.

For gear, I'd say:

Weapons

• Bananarang
• Blade Staff

Armor

• Adamantite Helmet/Hallowed Mask
• Adamantite Chestplate/Squire's Chestplate
• Spider Greaves

Accessories

• Pygmy Necklace
• Berserker's Glove
• Summoner Emblem
• Melee Emblem
• Worm Scarf/Brain of Confusion (the former preferred)
• Bundle of Horseshoe Balloons
• [Your Pick]

Other

• Gelatinous Pillon

Only issue is that the Hallowed and Squire stuff is post mech, which I don't believe he is at

That's why I put the slashes. Either or works, but the post-mech is preferable once you're there.

Probably should've clarified.

 

[FierceNebula]

Use your hellbridge

I don’t have one

 

[Asternove]

I don’t have one

…then just run across the map ig.

What did you use for WoF?

 

[FierceNebula]

Balloons and BOOTS and some explosions

 

[Asternove]

Balloons and BOOTS and some explosions

Okie. Still, take on QS.

 

[Im_ConfuzzledCobalt🥐🌳🐿]

Better idea: Get a set of full Adamantite Armor & a pair of Chain Guillotines, use Frozen Wings, any speed boots, Obsidian shield, Charm of Myths & Warrior emblem.
Then take on the twins. The Chain Guillotines are ing busted for them.

Why obsidian shield?

 

[Im_ConfuzzledCobalt🥐🌳🐿]

Knockback can easily ruin a fight. Get hit by one of Retinazer's lasers, it knocks you right into Spazmatism's flame, which the knockback will trap you in it for more than long enough to erase almost all your health. Obsidian shield also gives an extra defense point over the Cobalt shield so that's an extra plus.

 

[FierceNebula]

I'll show you my gear

 

[FierceNebula]

I have a amarock, shadowflame knife, spider staff, summoner emblem, apprentice's scarf, adamantite helmet, frost chestplate, spider greaves, amphibian boots, blessed apple, ankh shield and bundle of horseshoe balloons.
