Playtime: 130 hours ■ First, two points of no return: * Choose a world with a Crimson biome instead of a Corruption biome. * This makes it easier to craft the Hero's Shield from the Paladin's Shield. * Earn Defender Medals before transitioning to Hardmode. (It becomes incredibly difficult to earn them in Hardmode.) * In Hardmode, the Blacksmith offers Squire armor with 58 defense for 45 medals... and later, Valhalla Knight armor with 68 defense for 150 medals. ■ Recommended Final Equipment for Normal Mode: * Weapon: Night's Edge * Defense: Molten Armor (Defense 25) * Accessory Bonuses: All Defense +4 * Frog Leg * Ankle Bracelet * Spiked Shoes * Cloud in a Bottle * Water Walking Boots * *For Hardmode exploration, these accessories are generally kept, Water Walking Boots upgraded to the Balloon.* ■ My Final Boss Equipment for Hardmode: * Weapon: (Hallowed) Daybreak * Defense: Beetle Armor (Defense 73) <- Ideally, Valhalla Knight Armor * Accessory Bonuses: All Defense +4 * Philosopher's Stone <- Replace if using the Hero's Shield * Squire's Shield * Paladin's Shield * Frozen Shield * Star Veil * Mount: UFO * Summon: Deadly Sphere Staff ■ UFO... Immediately after defeating the Golem * Bring 1 Water Candle and 1 Table to the left or right edge (ocean). Then, place the table and candle on a platform high enough to avoid Harpies. * The UFO will appear in about a minute. Instead of defeating it, stand under its red laser beam. Warp to your home's hunting ground and engage the enemies. Repeat this until you get the UFO key. * *Mount progression: Slime -> Basilisk -> UFO* ■ Easy? way to defeat the final boss (after 4 defeats and trial and error) * Hunting ground: I have 3 Heart Statues... If you're mindful from Normal Mode, you can gather more. * Okay to place them side by side. Connect and activate with 1-second auto-pause. There's a rare bug where hearts won't spawn in close proximity. To fix this: remove the statues, save and quit, then replace the statues. * Move slightly left and right in front of the Heart Statues, and you'll win. If your timing is off, you might lose about half your HP, so drink 100 potions. * If you have the Hero's Shield, it's even easier. Place Heart Statues immediately when you find them... You can easily lure the UFO attacks and cultists before bosses to the hunting ground to defeat them easily. ■ Means of Transportation: Teleporters are a hassle, so... * From your home's hunting ground, lay Pumpkin Platform platforms in a straight line to the ocean wall. Place rails on top of the platforms... That's all you need. [Product Condition] * Jacket: No sun damage, in beautiful condition. * Case: Minor scratches. * Disc: A flawless condition, with almost no scratches.
