Hot Topic What Boss is the hardest boss for you guys? And why ?

I mean this reply,but i dont know why i couldn't reply to this before e.e

Jesters' Arrows don't penetrate as much as you want (or most other penetrating projectiles)
To get items that face well against him excluding Daedalus are obtained after defeating him.
He's the only boss I have a problem dodging due to his hitbox. (The same is for EOW if I don't have maneuvering gear.)
 
plantra:guidemad: it was so hard to beat at first when 1.2 came out for PS3 but a cupple years latter i notices i was using turtle armor with a perona gun, what was i thinking, but i knew i was bound to be a ranger when i saw what i was doing

Twins for me as well. They were the mech boss that killed me the most (D/ 15, Sp/0, T/20-30)
While I found it t difficult since it is essentialy two bosses, I probably died a whole lot because I was to lazy to make a sky bridge out of platforms to fight them.:guidetongue:
ok try using a proper ranger load out like this one shromite/vortex aromr depending on if you beat moon load or not ranger emblem destroyer emblem sniper scope master ninja gear ank sheild/ cesitial shell/stone and for expert mode spoke wings

A small a side note, I recommend killing retinizer first then all you have to do is keep your distance from spaztasim to win the fight
 
The hardest for me are the Twins, they are just too hard, I have trouble dodging Spazmitism's breath.

One good tip for many bosses if you are not-so-skilled at dodging, is.... if you can't dodge it, then soak it.

Now, you're not going to soak the green fire breath no matter what; it does way too much damage. However... Spaz has to slow down to use it and it has a relatively short range. The simple and easy way to counter that, is with a long tiered platform arena.

I would make a platform arena that is about 300-500 blocks wide, and make it two stories, each story being about I don't know, perhaps 20-30 blocks high, and use Leaf-tier wings (Leaf, Frost, or Flame) along with Specter or better Boots. Yes, use the wings AND boots; the boots will give you run speed and will make you ascend faster when you jump/fly, and will also prolong your flight time.

And of course, wear tank armor. You could go with Titanium, but I would actually recommend Adamantite Melee Armor.

If you can kill Destroyer, you can make a Megashark which is an excellent choice for fighting the twins, yes even while wearing Tank armor. If you have Crimson, I would recommend using Ichor Bullets. You could use Crystal Bullets instead or even Cursed Bullets, I've used all three of these options before and they all work reasonably well.

The rest of your accessories don't really matter as much; you could opt for a Ranged Damage Emblem, or perhaps try to get a Cross Necklace (which would help loads with the other eye's laser fire).

But basically the strategy is to just keep running away. Whenever Spaz decides to start breathing, you'll already be in the process of running away from him and he should pretty much never hit you with it. And of course, you want to place Heart Lanterns and Campfires all over the arena to have the buffs up full-time.

What I have done is used wings to descend and the player falls faster than spaz so you can easily avoid it (it might be ret's lasers though)
The twins are hardest for me because the other two have a peculiar weakness to the Deadliest Stormbow with holy arrows but the twins are a challenge

Spaz is not easy as its prehardmode counterpart, you will need a Daedalus Stormbow/Shadowflame Weapon/Sickle (the IceSickle is pre-mechs)/Wings (I recommend Frozen/Harpy/Leafy wings)/good armour (I prefer Titanium and Adamantite)... for making him easy (much like Retinazer)
the Twins, they are just too hard
they are easy to deal with if you have the weapons and accesories I listed
 
Honestly, I don't struggle with any of the bosses.. (Then again, I have 2k+ hours in the game..)

But I guess if I had to pick one, and this is kinda nitpicky, it'd have to be Expert Mode Skeletron.
Reason being, those wonky pseudo-homing skulls catch me off guard more times than I care to admit.
 
Personally, I think they have made Plantera really hard for pre-plantera players. The confined spaces and damage make it quite a tricky fight.
 
When I was trying to play Expert solo a couple years ago, I gave up on EoC

Normally, probably Ice Queen if you're trying to get Reindeer. It's not hard to kill a single one, it's hard to get to rank 15 and then you have to kill so many Ice Queens because of the drop rate... Even with end-game gear unless you're going to build a power-farm arena. Meanwhile a single run of Pumpkin Moon you will get 5+ of every single drop in the event. And literally like 100 trophy placards, it's ridiculous.

Moon Lord is probably most annoying because you have to go through so much bull:red: every time you want to summon him. Early on when you don't have souls to spare it can be very hard to practice the fight.
 
I don't really have one specifically, but the mechanical bosses in general were painful. I got Plantera & Golem first time, and even enough resources to kill Golem a few more times, but nah mate, not the mechanical bosses. They were extremely annoying, excluding the destroyer, as he wasn't that hard once i got the DD Stormbow.

As an added twist to the question, the hardest event i think i've ever done is the Solar Eclipse. I still have vietnam-style flashbacks of reluctantly doing that event to get the Terra Blade.
 
Hello Everyone :dryadwink:

Well,i recently "finished" the game by beating moon lord and getting the vortex armor, and, as you can tell, i played as an archer.
In my entire experience playing as an archer, the boss who killed me the most and was a pain to defeat was Duke Fishron (I think it's because i don't know how to evade him :dryadsad:)
So, i want to know your opinion, thank you :dryadgrin:
id say duke fishron is second hardest as well but if you can get a tactical shotgun with chlorophyte bullets, master ninja gear and pretty descent tanky armor, then he isnt much of a problem. The lunatic cultist is fairly hard but im actually gonna say, and dont laugh, the eye of cthulhu. now let me explain why. most people encounter the eye for the first time on accident, either by using the suspicious eye not knowing what it does or by him randomnly spawning. most people dont have that great gear at that stage in the game so the eye takes away your life in a flash without you realizing he was a boss. He obviously isnt hard but in the stage of the game that you are meant to fight him, he can be tough.
 
WoF because it is basically a timed boss, which nullifies melee weapons almost completely. ever since that fight I changed from my usual melee to summoner. not to mention the LAVA. unless you overprepare, this fight is quite hard
