You know that the bundle of balloons are not that hard to get. So far, every single one of my 1.2 characters have gotten the bundle of balloons prehardmode.
 
Often this setup:
Shadow/Crimson armor
Nights edge
Flamarang
Molten pickaxe
Phoenix blaster
Water Bolt
Starfury

Spectre boots
Horsehoe balloon

All other equipment differs each playthrough.
 
Molten Armor with:
Legendary Night's Edge
Godly Flamamrang
Obsidian Shield
Fleeting Frostspark Boots
Menacing Bundle of Baloons
Tiger Climbing Gear
Menacing Magma Stone
 
Shadow Armor with a melee weapon, mostly a spear. Band of Regeneration is a must, everything else doesn't really matter as long as their modifiers help me with attack power.
 
-Bundle of balloons
-Lava Vaders and Frostspark Boots(we really need an update that allows us to combine these)
-Molten Armor for defence and if you prefer melee
-Night's Edge for damage, the bee sword for autoswing, Confused debuff and bees
-Phoenix Blaster for high DPS, Star Cannon for bosses and Boomstick because it's awesome and it shoots 4 bullets at once and only uses one. And it's great in short range
-just basic Musket Balls for normal enemies, Silver Bullets and Meteorite Bullets for special enemies
-Bee's Knees, Molten Bow, the burning bat bow
-I use normal arrows because special bows like those above need them to be awesome, Jester Arrows for invasions and h*llfire arrows for high damage and explosions
-can't remember the best magic weapons. Flower of fire and Flamelash I guess
-obsidian shield
-Cell Phone
-accessories for whatever you need

Since you used a whole accessory slot just to make your bee based attacks steonger I think you should have more bee weapons...

Only Wasp Gun diesn't work sonce it summons wasps instead of bees.

That's why I switch it for mana flower when I'm not using the bee gun.
 
Haha oh man memories. Mine was all Crimson Armor, Sharanga, Flying Carpet, Sandstorm in a Balloon and Spectre Boots. Killed everything pre hardmode!

Oh okay.

Load out. Not your whole inventory and houses. Just what you used before entering hard mode. Main equipment that you used for everyday use.
