How to (somewhat easily) demolish Daytime Empress of Light in Terraria

theres new technology to defeat her easily that is very hard to pull off, if you just create a character but with journey mode and turn on the rare “god mode” option, it makes her do 0 damage, which makes this fight super easy

ty for trick its work!!! after i cant kill this boss OMG Terraprisma is mine

Huge thanks for the awesome video that helped me tremendously in managing that fight post-Golem in my first full playthrough of the game. Playing as summoner I wanted to get that Terraprisma before taking on the Moon Lord, as I generally don't like getting the best weapon for my class only AFTER I complete the game…
Note for Classic mode players: no access to the Witch's Broom means I needed different mobility means without losing too much on damage. So I used the UFO mount (obtained while farming for Xeno staff). It's too slow as is for this fight, or at least for my F-tier skills, so I improved its acceleration a bit by wearing my Terraspark boots (any other +movement speed gear would have worked as I only used them for the movement speed). The rest of the accessories was Necromantic Scroll, Papyrus Scarab, Celestial Shell, and Pygmy Necklace, all Menacing, like in the video. You lose a bit of damage having to wear a movement speed accessory, but since it's Classic, that loss is compensated by the lower HP pool of the boss. I killed that EoL in roughly the same amount of time, and I barely used the Sun Dance moment to land some heavy whip hits. Still took me about 50 attempts because I suck, but made the win even more satisfying!
Thanks again for the guidance!

i think i've been playing too much modded, the empress of light looks like it's moving really slowly

well i just killed it using sdmg and chlorophyte bullets (vortex armor for more dmg and dmg accesories)

Quick question: can I replace the berserker glove with the pygmy necklace in expert mode?

Ngl I used to think Daytime empress was way too hard and I would never be able to do it normally. I used to always cheese it with homing attacks and a long rail.

In my last playthrough I decided to just try beating it and after practicing about 15 times on normal empress, it was actually not too difficult to avoid all the attacks. I managed to do it in about 6 tries. I recommend just having some asphalt on the ground and wearing some movement speed stuff so it's easier to dodge things, wear the flight accessory she gives you, then just figure it out from there.

I recommend trying it, it's more doable than you think and it feels amazing when you're done. If I can do it, almost anyone can, I am infamously terrible at games.

Thank you I had little to no hope of ever beating her as I think of myself as a bad terraria player. But this strategy, even without buffs killed the empress. You have my thanks

any chance of getting this guide for calamity infernum? im tring but man its rough.

Bro thank you I didn't use everything you suggested and still demolished her thanks for the guide🙏🙏

what if you get nighttime empress low then just kill her when its day
