have you ever thought about making addendum videos for these that cover difficulty modes added by the calamity mod?
I like the Minishark
I was exploring the map to get it all rendered for when I open the map to look around and found the dungeon. I had cactus armour and decided it would be a good idea to go down. Yeah no it wasn't a good idea
How do you get the wings
Is demonite set and minishark enough?
if you sneese on classic skeletron it dies exper and master tho you dont even the chanse to sneese on him
Could this be reused for prime?
the best way is definitely flamerang
I just keep getting combo'd by his head taking all my health down before his second phase
EDIT: I finally beat him. What I was missing was a wider arena and 2 arial boosts instead of 1.
I wish the game warned about the Guardian. I went there, got slain. Thought "huh, cool trap, like boulders in caverns but deadlier". Expected it to be one time thing. Went in second time to pick up the money, surprise, dead again. This was before i learned to store coins in piggybank. Rip most of my early game funds.
Do you have any tips for when you're caught in the spining head of death? xD I always manage to get caught in it and it ultimately ends up killing me. Like, the pots and everything are great, I take out the hands no problem, the problem itself is the dang head. My boots and double jumps fail me as well, so maybe it's just a skill issue. xD
Oh My! Thank you for making this expert guide! It was My first time beating skeletron in Expert😂! Skeletron was a PAIN! And all of you guessed it…. i was unprepared…..
wait a second, your telling me im supposed to kill Skeletron BEFORE Wall of Flesh?
Well that clears some things out
Is grass blade good for this boss?
Skeletron is the ONLY BOSS! that I have difficulty with not even skeletron prime is that difficult
Im having trouble defeating him on pc in expert mod although i have enough gear to skip him and go to the wall of flesh but i cant defeat him
Im getting him to half his health and dying can some ine give me some tips
Im using that bow made of hell stone- nights edge(got muramasa from anither world) full hellstone armor some good mana weapons that have 30+damage that gun we get from crimson and the wip made from jungle spores and vines
Good gear but im getting him to half his health and i cant dodge him anymore
What I hate about the dungeon guardian is that there was no warning. No danger sign, no warning text, not even a poem. I had to learn about it's existence the hard way, and I lost all my stuff.
Im gonna go to the dungeon to prepare for skeletron
thx
FINALLY A RELATABLE GUIDE
(Subbed)
Update: I was going towards Skeletron knowing I would lose for the like 7th time, strolling through the corruption, then my gravity randomly flipped, I ended up on a sky island, found a Starfury, and easily beat Skeletron. Now I’m finally advancing again. I love this game.
