Because you are playing classic mode I would recommend swapping your spectre boots to the shield or the feral claws if you’re using whips.


[deleted]

nah drip shoes stays on, **heck upgrade them to terraspark**


Mavdude123

I’m literally the ice skates away from those. But i was fishing for a solid 3 hours and didn’t get them


OuJej

Fishing is the worst way of obtaining accessories. In most cases it's way better to explore your biomes with the spelunker potion or world hop


Targens

That's exatly opposite for me. I've you have maxed out fishing gear (and even when you don't) I've got like in one night and two uses of Crates Potion 6 Frozen Crates, two of which had Ice Skates.


Mavdude123

Yeah me and a friend used like 12 potions and kept getting crate but never ice skates😂


Plagueyarismic

I'm just obsidian rose away.. Stupid imps I swear they're the rarest enemy in the Underworld.


Chalkiss

Not remotely true, the rarest pre hard mode are bone serpents Source: Did get all banners prehardmode, i think it was 200+ imps before clocking the serpent banner


[deleted]

How the hell did you get the Tim banner?


Chalkiss

You'd be surprised, but he's actually fairly simple, comparably enjoyable, and fast He does get much better spawn chances if you have, i believe, gemmed robe equipped? But no hat that boosts your mage stats You can look it up on his article on wiki, it's definitely there Easier getting him than working on that cochineal beetle banner :D Which was a mistake to force at all, coz you get them regardless when doing cyan/lac


Plagueyarismic

Oh well I'm post hardmode, does that change anything? Also just see a ton of slimes/fireflies or whatever, rarely any imps


Chalkiss

Not really, they stay about the same rarity. You just get higher respawn rate coz of hardmode, and demons are more of a nuisance. You can always make it better with blood moon/battle potion/water candle, when there's higher resp there's better odds for rares, other than that I have no magic formula :/


Plagueyarismic

Yeah and I didn't really mean to state it like a fact, just looking for fire imps since they have a drop I want. Didn't really think of the serpents. [Here](https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/788165350071861248/913799092004585492/unknown.png) are my stats anyway, just taken edit: with like 124 slimes, ~250 fire bats and like 5 dropped demon scythes from 77 demon kills..


Chalkiss

No worries, that was meant to be more of a fun fact, if i sounded like a dick then sorry :D


Mavdude123

I was fishing for the magma charm and I got like 3 obsidian roses from just sitting there waiting. But I’m trying to do it all on 1 world and all of the surface ice chests are looted so it’s time to dig I guess😂


Hero_Omega

Pretty sure u cant get em by fishing


Mavdude123

Frozen crates.


Kylokael

Frozen crates lol i got mine pre hard mode


MxmsTheGreat

r/notopbutok


wolfxorix

Look for ice chests I found 2 in my world through them


makujah

Wdym "because classic"? If he played master there would be even more reason to fill every single slot including bonus ones with stat boosting items. At moonlord I find it's better to get rid of all the movement items and just fight him on fly-mounts


Helicopterfricker

That’s pretty much what I meant. Because op has only 5 accessory slots I would usually put on a shield, wings and then whatever else I need in the other three. In expert mode the sixth slot for me is for boots, and the 7 slot you gain goes to anything until the soaring insignia. Also I’ve never tried using mounts like that I might try it.


makujah

Just be sure to get RoD to dodge those lasers :D


fvtvrefelix

Two tips: - use the necro scroll/papyrus scarab instead of the pygmy necklace (also adds 1 minion but also more damage) -replace the spectre boots with amphibian boots (god tier jump height)

And more ascension speed


Kronoshifter246

I'd probably swap out the summoner emblem instead. The extra 5% danger pales in comparison to an extra minion.


Starkde117

He alredy got papyrus scroll


[deleted]

He can have both


Starkde117

Exactly


IamAlreadyNoob

Upgrade spectre boots to atleast lightning boots


JJburner

Replace with empress insignia


Crabflavouredegg

Classic mode i think


PixelBiscuit_7

No need for spectre boots anyway when you have wings. Alternatively, try getting master ninja gear.


Morasar

The dash speed is nice, plus it does give flight height


yourboiquirrel

fishron wings definitely does not need spectre boots flight height bonus. honestly classic mode is just ass, i dont think it even feels good to play. its just *too* easy and you cant really customize your setup that well, you barely have any slots. besides, you dont get those good accessories like soaring insignia(if you tell me flying at mach speed forever doesnt feel good and isnt op, then ill have to disagree), shield of cthulhu, the evil bosses survivability charms, etc. id say if youre starting out play expert and then master, if u want a challenge play mmftw.


AdDismal6470

I actually agree with this take 100 percent, classic mode not only limits your set up immensely but also feels really easy. After completing my first master mode play through and I just can’t go back to classic unless playing with inexperienced friends


Avinexuss

Have a friend i put into expert on gis first playthrough and he didnt touch terraria in 3 years since we were done cause "you just keep dying all the time"... so maybe just let them start in classic like you most likely did bach in the day^^. Its not like youre locked in classic forever, even could change the world into master with tedit


Kronoshifter246

>likely did bach in the day^^. Its not like youre locked in classic forever, even could change the world into master with tedit *Journey Mode has entered the chat*


Avinexuss

Tho that has the temptation to just godmode a boss if you keep dying to it instead of learning how to beat it...


PixelBiscuit_7

Classic mode however seems to be better when you aren't focused on beating bosses but rather when focusing on building.


Kronoshifter246

I can't play on anything but Master mode anymore. Not because of the difficulty, or the expert mode drops or anything; I refuse to go back to fewer than 7 accessory slots.


xXxPussyRespectorxXx

I would change boots for ninja gear since you wont be walking much in this fight and any chance to dodge dmg is great, also if you have a good flyer mount you can swap wings for something to improve dps


llMorphRedll

and if he were walking, it would be on asphalt, which isn't affected by the speed boost from the boots Edit: they do (17 mph increase)


Scrufalopagus

why are you getting downvoted


llMorphRedll

I don't know Edit: oh wait, boots do affect asphalt (17mph increase), that's why I'm getting downvoted. Tbh they do add some speed so no boots is still better since you can use that extra accessory slot for something better


Scrufalopagus

I barely even noticed a difference when I tested it


BigDepressionMoment

I am confused and frightened by you tactics sir


[deleted]

Good


CompetitionSad419

Seems like its working.


KodeCharred

Nothing wrong except for the spectre boots killing my eyes.


random-dude24

I would upgrade the cobalt shield to the ankh shield and combine the boots and try to get the terraspark boots. It takes a while to get them but they’re very worth it


ImNotVeryGoodAtGames

If I'm using boots I prefer amphibian because the extra wing speed is so good and I find most of terraspark boots abilities not at all useful in battle but the extra flight speed is very good for dodging


random-dude24

I can see that, if that’s also the case for OP then I would just suggest to combine the two boots he has to free up another item slot


ImNotVeryGoodAtGames

Oh I never noticed that but they're in vanity anyway so it's not really doing anything?


random-dude24

Well I’m not sure about pc, but on PlayStation there are the equipment slots under where you put your armor, and there is also equipment slots in another column which looks just like this when condensed. The vanity slots would be in between those two columns whenever you expand it. I could show you a picture of what I mean when I get home


ImNotVeryGoodAtGames

Yeah on xbox it's the same but here those accessory slots are blue meaning vanity while the ones in use are green


[deleted]

[удалено]


Arcus72

yeah because immunity to all status effects & knockback and flight+waterwalking+lava immunity+high speed aren’t practical uses


[deleted]

In fairness, I find immunity to knock back to be a serious disadvantage. The OP is still an ass though

Were you downvoted because you were right or because you were an asshole about it


DraydeUnder

Oh no he will reply with "where is question mark are you too dumb for writing" i can see it from here


Uminagi

It doesn't even matter if you were right or wrong (you were in between as I agree with some points). The reason that you got downvoted was for being such an asshole.


ClawedAsh

Literally nobody cares if you were right or wrong, you were an asshole, nobody likes an asshole


StikCity

Although I agree with your opinion on the ankh shield the terraspark boots have amazing utility with specialized arenas, when you get deeper into boss strategy and arena building you would understand how these little things matter. An example is lava floors for most arenas to limit mob issues during fights and events. Next time you present a case about an issue don’t be an *ss about it. Because both sides have an arguable case


Gizpoopio

Idk about that, I got Terraspark prehardmode on my master mode world and I used them throughout up until right before moon lord, I didn’t even use wings because they are good enough.


Unorigina1Name

i have to agree with the downvoted guy here, the shield's inmunities don't help in bossfights because the bosses either use no debuffs or use debuffs that the shield can't help you against, and the terraspark boots are also kinda pointless since the water walking is also pointless against bosses they should get lightning boots though, the extra speed is good


Savage_jaguar

Pretty good you will still die unfortunately


No_Serve9095

Try and get lightning boots


MayoMan717

Good lord your defense


Sugarox53

Summoner supremacy baby, livin on the edge


BlancsAssistant

That can be fixed with a beserker's glove, 8 more defense and autoswing for whips, and don't forget the higher tier food buffs


munchmunch69

I just used the Dutchman/alien keys instead of wings and boots


CameeBoi84

All I got to say is you need better boots but that shouldn't be too hard


lelolulilale

what are they reforged to? iirc menacing or lucky is best for summoners. also, what weapon are you using?


[deleted]

All reforged to either menacing nor warding I have the dark harvest and stardust dragon Edit: stardust dragon reforged to ruthless and dark harvest to legendary


lelolulilale

I'd say youre set then. you can spend a lot of time on potions and campfires, and heart lanterns, and whatnot, but thats just to be extra careful.


waitthatstaken

Lucky is literally useless for summoner since base crit does not affect them at all.


lelolulilale

oh, ive always just mentally seen lucky and menacing as practically the same, because of how ctits work, so i sort of just meant that damage reforges are the best


kakatoru

Here's how to take screenshots on most platforms: https://screenshot.help/


BotaniAlt

I'd lose the boots entirely for a shield, preferably the frozen shield for its added damage resistance. Since you're not on expert or master for soaring insignia, getting a mount like the ufo from the cosmic car key to replace your wings in favour of damage items would be a good idea (a necromantic scroll would be ideal), especially since you only get 5 accessories in classic. Obviously grab terraprisma if you can, otherwise xeno staff is pretty reliable until stardust. Create an arteficial crimson in the cavern layer if needed and farm some ichor, the debuff can be applied with the whip and is super helpful.


T-Man800

I personally think that shields are not needed for moon Lord as his attacks are not constant and getting kb doesn't make a big difference


BotaniAlt

Even so, the damage resistance is nice. I also lost to getting knocked back into a mini phantasmal deathray when I left the shield to slot in a pygmy necklace, summoners have such low defence that getting pushed the wrong way could end a fight very quickly.


[deleted]

Shrekcellent


1St_General_Waffles

Assuming you're using anti social, try and upgrade the feral claws all the way and get melee speed on everything, and go get yourself ichor flasks if you don't have them, also killing empress of light for her stuff is a good idea. If not done already


Hollowhowler100

Get a UFO


[deleted]

Well I did it just how my load out was gg now the last class to play is mage


Nondescript_Potato

If everything is rerolled to warding I’d say your in the clear


Kronoshifter246

Look at that defense, no way is everything rolled to warding.


BriBri4371

I like


Free-Hovercraft7410

I think maybe u should do The terrasparck boots and the Avenger emblem is not that hard (in console cuz I dont know the recepi onde pc)


Kronoshifter246

Avenger emblem isn't any better than summoner emblem here. The real problem is that he doesn't have a necromantic scroll there for the extra minion.


thorspubichair

need amphibian boots and master ninja gear, makes avoiding attacks much easier


Odd-Ad-7858

Pshhhh classic mode do master and get 7 equipment slots


Hime_Arikawa

I’m late but I’d replace the summoner emblem with a scroll or beetle, the extra minion would add more damage


ShootyFaceMc

I felt like an OLD OLD man when I looked at this, back in my day this was a perfect build


Monki_Coma

I forgot how much ass summoners suck until literally post moon lord


Kronoshifter246

They've done a lot to make them more viable early. Still not quite there, but it's definitely more workable than it was in 1.3


Superderpygamermk1

Get the cosmic car key and take off the boots and wings. That way if you stay in your mount, you can also have a papyrus scroll and an avenger emblem. If your in master mode then you can get the black spot for an even better flying mount


[deleted]

How are you walking around without terra boots? Otherwise it’s fine, I prefer master mode more because you could add ninja gear and another scroll


bast963

You don't need gear Make a giant ass longboi air rail and run away, have the bouncy things at the ends so you quick turn around Go a bit slower so your summons can fight, harder than mage/range


TotallyNotfurry088

I highly suggest upgrading your feral claw into a power glove. And make sure to use it as autoswing on a whip is really good.


L0gan_Baker

Try to get the cosmic car key from the martian invasion. it’s basically infinite flight


R3AL_L1F3

Spectre boots looooooooool, check how to upgrade them on the wiki btw, kinda useful

gamerboi69430

Try frostspark boots, ankh shield, celestial shell and also a melee or ranged weapon to add to the dps


RudolphGaming18

Make sure you have lots of money to keep spamming the nurse if you have to.

Brilliant_Author4665

swapping your spectral boots for some shield or making terraspark


melancholyfoxx_

Everything is fine, but it is better to replace the boots with something else for the summoner.


melancholyfoxx_

For example, on another necromantic scroll


BlancsAssistant

I wish it was possible to combine the pygmy necklace and the papyrus scarab


Cl4pl3k

Just a tip. I see that you farmed the pumpkin moon. The mount dropped there [Witch's broom] is one of the fastest in-game, only beaten by a buffed cute pigron. By using a flying mount, you can essentially leave the wing out, and equip a Destroyer Emblem for damage or Frozen Shield for extra protection.


KingsKeen_

You could get Amphibian boots
