Switch So, I'm looking to try master mode with a melee summoner hybrid setup but I need help. (Yes im still grounded just need time to think)

Official Terrarian
So, i know pre boss its flinx fur coat, and ancient shadow armor, but what about pre wall? Also, I know to use adamantite for headpiece, frost breastplate and spider greaves pre mech but pre Plantera, do I just do what the wiki says? And what about pre golem, or even post golem? I only need armor recommendations, as I know good weapons and accessories.
 
I stick to sets, but do you think these could work?

Pre-Plantera
-Chlorophyte Mask
-Squire’s Plating
-Squire’s Greaves

Pre-Golem
-Chlorophyte Mask
-Spooky Breastplate (Squire’s Plating if defence is an issue)
-Squire’s Greaves

Pre-Cultist
-Chlorophyte Mask
-Spooky Breastplate (Valhalla Knight’s Breastplate if defence is an issue)
-Valhalla Knight’s Greaves

Quick suggestion: Grind some defender medals before Golem so you don’t have to do Stage III to get Valhalla Knight’s Armor. I wouldn’t recommend the whole set because sentries aren’t good, but the leggings could be a life saver here for 50 medals, aka two Pre-Golem OOAs.

Thanks for the suggestion! I'm currently doing a expert summoner run so I'm used to low defense. I'm personally looking to try the flying dragon, I've seen that the shinobi infiltrator's helmet is probably better as even with lower defence, it gains two sentry slots. Pre plantera I think I should instead use monk's shirt, because for 5 less defense I gain 5% more summon/melee damage. I will try spooky breastplate, but I think it would be better to use monk shirt because it provides a 20% boost to both damage types. But thanks for the help! I'll still definitely try some of these things! I still need help with pre wall though.
 
After closer look at the wiki, It says I should use spooky breastplate. Sorry!
That’s why I put it as a second option :guidesmile:

Also, sentries are awful. They are good as a side, but always focus on Minions.

I might actually use this myself now for Master mode. I can’t handle summoner’s -2 defense, so I might try this.
