golf cart strikes again for being very useful
golf
You could always skip the fuss and use teleporters (though whether you wish to use cheese is up to you.)
You could just wire up two teleporters and teleport every time you see him.
No skill or gear needed and minimal preparation, it's also much more consistent than soc, golf cart, and pillion.
omg what
Babe wake up, another terrasteel golf cart appreciation video just dropped
I love it when the golf cart said "It's golfin' time" and then golfed all over fishron
I've tried the shield of cthulhu trick in the past, but it hasn't worked for me. I can never do the second or third dashes in time and get blocked by the dash cooldown. I assume this is a skill issue of some sort, but i am still very confused.
Dang, i guess golf is useful after all…
Nah
Of course like most mounts, the golf cart deals summon damage meaning you use it in your summoner builds for extra damage.
The best p3 cheese is to play in classic mode
I misspeak a lot of words because I read them before I hear them said. Never heard anyone do that with the word "parry" before.
another thing with the shield of cthulhu: it's harder to figure out the timing, but you can also dash in the same direction as fishron dashes into you!
this is different because once you bounce off of fishron, you'll be sent in the opposite direction he's moving instead of the same direction, which makes it much less likely that you'll still be in contact once your iframes run out
again it's not as simple to time since there's a bigger delay between your dash which could mess you up or even have the dash expire before he contacts you if you fail it, but ive found at times to prefer this. this is also what i always do with queen bee
the slime mount is also effective, the only issue is the pillion can actually be used in the first 2 phases
I didn't even know that Duke's 3rd Phase has this 1,2,3 pattern, thanks for enlightening me xD
2:36 GODDAMNIT 🙁
Another insane thing about the Gelatinous Pillion is that you can spam the mount on and off to get an increased acceleration when flying up and obviously the increased acceleration while falling down, so if you build like 3 platforms in the ocean for a giant arena, you can literally go up and down on the third phase and completely evade Duke's attack because of how fast you go up and down. I use this strat every time I fight Duke and works most of the time.
Would like to throw in that parries from the Sergeant united shield and Brand of the Inferno can let you do this phase (and with some other preparation the entire fight) jumpless. It's by far my new favorite way of killing the Duke and I'd highly recommend giving it a try. I like blade staff and titanium armor which since the Duke is constantly ramming you and you get a bunch of free damage from the shards.
Set spawn on top of the world at the ocean, once duke goes phase 3, recall and freefall and shoot. If you hit ground, pop recall again. Rinse and repeat until fish dies. Easiest and most brainless way to win, and is literally faster than the other methods since you can put all your effort into aiming at a super predictable pattern due to consistent and static freefall.
