He looks insane, but this comes from the guy who beat day time empress of light as a summoner pre-moonlord (not that big of a deal tho) , and the guy who beat terraria with only traps.

It kinda sucks that the only 2 great sentries are from after moonlord is killed. Hopfully in 1.4.5 sentries will get their final rework to make the sub-class viable.

The initial OOA grind, there's a fairly well known easy way to get extra sentries. Ethirian Mana is a physical item in your inventory, and it can freely be placed into chests like any other item. Once the event finishes, any Mana in your inventory is removed. If you open a chest, any Mana in it is also removed once you open it. The update is only done once you open the chest. Nothing stops you from starting an event, storing Mana, losing, then starting a new event before opening the chest. I usually use this when trying to kill Betsy just so I can leave the crystal alone and focus the boss, but this works at any progression level

Tips for OOA: you can open doors. Such as trapdoors. This allows you to keep all ground bound enemies underground and useless, or you can use a hoik to disable them as well.

dude trashes his copper short sword when he could’ve just thrown it to a slime and got squire slime

24:17 ayo bro needs to chill 💀

Tell me why you are the only KZfaqr that makes these Terraria challenge videos and I can actually sit through the entire video. I've seen similar videos and dunno why these are different, but definitely keep going and keep more coming!

Explosive traps are crazy underrated. They goated , esecially for moon lord cuz you can get them all on the same block and melt the eyes.

Btw the explosive trap is insane when well used against the old one's army and can be enough until betsy , it can even kill the flying ennemies when placed on the crystal , it is easily the 2nd or 3rd best old one's army weapon , other than that i wish terraria made sentries more viable , rather than just something you place down because it deals a tiny bit more dmg and leave it

34:15 Revolutionary technique. We should all be taking notes.

After seeing the master mode summoner playtrough 7 times i can say that this dude is the best

If you struggle with OOA you could do the distraction method to save up mana and store it in a chest next to the crystal. As long as the chest in NEVER opened outside of the event that mana will be stored and not disappear. Just lose the game several times and BOOM! you save enough to spawn multiple ballisters and wipe them.

"phase one is boring, except for her" had me dead bro 😆

Explosive Traps and Flameburst sentries are better than the Ballistae IMO because of their higher DPS. Lightning Auras are good with the specialized armor. You actually can teleport your way out of the Destroyer fight. Put 2 teleporters at the same height far away from each other and put Explosive Traps between them. Destroyer doesn't despawn due to distance, so you can teleport to keep him entirely offscreen and on top of your infinitely piercing Explosive Traps.

If you think about it, NPCs are sort of moving sentries that can be destroyed.

Before OOA difficulty got drastically tuned down. Explosive Trap was the only sentry that allow you to die twice without instantly lost the OOA event in Master Mode even during it pre-buff, twice, and can guard Betsy for quite a long duration compared to all other OOA sentry.

babe wake up new rather quenched video is up

good job at keeping me engaged :) you do a great job at pacing and wording your script. well done !

absolutely banger video. super engaging and, unlike some terraria challenge vids i watch, it actually seemed like you had creative power and difficulty when working on this! great work! :)

I discovered this channel yesterday and I'm already happy to see new videos popping up. I know I'm in for a ride!!

I think sentries-only is one of the most painful weapon type-only runs you can do in this game. Shortswords-only, repeaters-only, and launchers-only are the only ones I'd say are worse.

OMG YES!!!! i just started watching your videos again. perfect timing. btw thank you for your time and effort spent doing these types of videos. : )

There are a lot of ways to make this run easier. (I'm watching this video as of writing this, will edit as I progress) - OOA: you can use platform hoik to make all ground enemies harmless, allowing you to clear the event more easily. - All nighttime bosses: you can play the dontdigup seed to remove ALL time limits from bossfights (except deerclops and wall of flesh) - Twins: for retinazor second phase, just box yourself in and you're completely safe from all attacks. It doesn't shoot through walls and it never dashes at you. - Destroyer does not despawn when you are far away. You can use the magic conch to teleport to the other ocean and heal up (or use other means of long range teleporting) - Generally for low damafe weapons, going for tankier builds is better. If you can survive indefinitely then it doesn't matter which weapon you use. There's also the ultimate uber cheese method of saving up eternia crystals and then spawning hundreds of sentries at once while the event is active but you wouldn't have an interesting video that way lol

Amazing video! I really liked how you focused on the problem solving which is one of the reasons I adore challenge videos.

If you actually do this with only century damage that’s extremely impressive. When other KZfaqrs do these challenges they often bend the rules when they don’t have to but only a minute into the video I can tell you’re serious and I love it, I’ll sub and I know you’ll be big soon keep it up man

This guy deserves more than his subs because i mean he has like 60+ hours on every single world he does and has spent to much time and his life on this game, mad respect.

man I dont watch long format gaming videos a lot but this was so entertaining to watch. Excellent video. Ive seen other challenge videos from terraria from other people and the werent as engaging

Keep up the great terraria master series :) Plenty of builds still to do, I love watching em' and quening them all up when i hit the sack after a long day of work!

The amount of comments recommending cheese methods is very strange. Like, why even do the challenge if you're just going to cheese everything?

How about a book only run?

This is both an excellent presentation and a good challenge, awesome :) If you don't mind a bit of cheese: You can set one of your teleporters just outside of the Ocean Biome - because as soon as you get outside of the Ocean Biom while Duke is spawned, he enrages and ignores all of his other stuff, just dashing at you. Then you teleport back into the Ocean Biome with the other teleporter, effectively resetting his AI. He'll never spawn tornadoes this way

You can watch a youtuber called sorbet cafe who killed moonlord using a copper shortsword, flare gun, and lawn mower. When the leeches spawn you can teleport to the other side of the world, unlike moonlord who instantly teleports to you the leeches despawn allowing you to moon lord to stop healing.

finally someone who doesnt have a playthrough with 50+ quality of life mods

You're really good at this game! I've seen a lot of Terraria KZfaqrs and a lot of challenges be done, but I've never seen someone make use of Skeletron Prime's daytime rage before! I will definitely be coming back to this channel in the future.

By far my favorite Terraria KZfaqr. I can rewatch videos and they'll still make my day like the first time I watched them.

Kinda tired of terraria challenges already, but this was genuinely very fun to watch!! Great video!! 😄

this is such a well made video nice job man

YES NEW RATHER QUENCHED UPLOAD TO WATCH 7 TIMES IN A ROW

Wow, did I really watch this for 40 minutes? amazing content man, good job!

I love this video, I can't stop watching it so much that I'm going to do the challenge, your character became the sentinel defender and saved them all, good video

Sentry goin up

another quench vid les gooo babyyyyyyyy

I would have loved to see the final in-game time. Obviously wouldn’t include other game practice or brainstorming sessions, but it would be fun to see. Nicely done!

Huge respect to you for sticking to your challenge so strictly and not allowing stuff like titanium armour or inferno potions, it makes this so much more satisfying to watch than other terraria creators. Keep bein awesome dude.

Fresh from the oven

this is extremely impressive. as someone doing sentry summoner right now (basically this but i have whips, SO much easier) on expert mode, you've gone through much farther lengths through everything, in master mode too! here's something VERY key about the frost hydra sentries though: their invincibility frames SUCK. if you'll notice at 38:04 , not every projectile hits. the projectiles interrupt each other because they dont have local immunity frames (like the ballista staff, for example, does), so using them together like that can hurt dps at extreme levels. hope that explains that! i did love how you named each sentry though. very fun touch

You are truly a god. I tried this challenge 5-6 months ago, but i stopped on Wall of Flesh. Now I`m motivated to repeat your feat

His comeback in old ones army made me happy

For the Old Ones Army, you could've put the 10 starting mana into a chest and not to open it when not fighting the army. That way, you get as much mana as you want and place like 100 sentries at the start of the event.

Bro dedication is truly amazing. If I did this challenge, I'd probably go crazy fighting the deerclops

This was incredible, amazing work.

You can place the crystal holder 4 blocks high for the old ones army, making it immune to units in wave 1 and some enemies further in

Can you please continue making more of these videos because they are so enjoyable. I would love to see more

terraria has to have the most dedicated and fuckin insane community. the challenges are unbelieveable. good job

very very very nice i can see how much of a dedication and diligance is put into this you will be an exelent youtuber (already are but much bigger as one you will be)

Explosive Trap is incredible, it’s just not the best boss weapon. Easily my favorite of the bunch

You’ve done an amazing job, bro. Hats off to you 🎉

This was 40 Minutes???? Damn that flew by like it was nothing I was so invested!

had to sub after this herculean efffort. Keep it up!!

Eternia event armor is lowkey fantastic though. The Valhalla Knights set and the flying dragon are fun and just useful.

I never thought this challenge was actually possible and this comes from someone who beat master mode legendary world as summoner huge respect you trully made terraria history

Huge respect for staying with the spirit of the run

i love your videos 😼😼 i hope you never quit, you deserve WAY more subs. thank you

İncredible video dude I thought this was impossible (also W editing)

This is incredible. The level of skill and amount of dedication is just amazing. Im so impressed. Well done!

Man, big effort! KUDOS

I've done this playthrough before. Honestly, even on master mode this was one of the most fun playthroughs I've done ever

This guy has way too much dedication. Well done!

A better thing to do instead of trashing the copper short sword is just chucking it at the first slime you see to get a free Npc for lower enemy spawns by your base for the first night

I have never played terraria in my life and don't really like it but still watch like every video of yours youtube recommends me xD

For the old ones army, there's a trick with platforms that prevents the ground enemies from passing through.

Dude, the explosive trap rod is AMAZING for any event, but only if you use the red riding hood armor set. If you have the upgraded version of of the explosive trap rod by having that special armor equipped, putting a couple at the portals of the OOA event makes it completely AFK, until betsy or ogre of course

There is a placeable version of a snowball cannon that looks like a sentry and shoots independently without aiming, but it’s no class so I don’t know if it would fit the criteria. Its dropped by snow flinxes

If I could like this 100 times, I 100% would. One like is simply inefficient for the sheer dedication and polish that went into this video. Great job!

This is something I've seen a good bit lately. People trying to fight fishron with pixie wings and getting cooked. The fights all about maneuverability. You gotta upgrade them boize.

Nice strat making Skeletron Prime fly along the ground where the baby spiders could reach him!

for OOA you can use a simple hoik at each portal to stall the enemies, and then stack either ballista or flameburst sentries at the crystal to kill flying enemies. use the trap to kill enemies that are stuck in the hoik

Me yelling at the screen for the entire old man's army ark like: "HOIK!!! USE THE FRICKING HOIK!!!" But congrats on beating it without it. Also recasting the sentry resets it's firing cooldown allowing you to spam it as long as you have mana.

24:18 who there buddy slow your roll thats waffletimes girl your fighting

the fact that you mined out a pit under the moon lord arena before upgrading your wings is astounding

14:13 I've been playing master mode and everything seed for quite some time, and FINALLY I saw someone using rails as well to create a hell bridge! xD I find them superior, both resource and speed wise (dude, 1 iron bar for 50 rails!? and you can place them in zigzag too!) As a rail hell bridger, I approve of this xD

I hope they add more sentry that can homing. Sentry ironically satisfying class, lmao.

Man as someone who always cheeses the old ones army it was so painful to listen to the old ones segmwnt

My favourite sentry is the column of cursed flames (Clinger Staff). Wait...It's not a sentry?

Loving these challenges

Bro didnt even get the rod of harmony after beating moon lord

next video; "beating terraria without touching my computer"

"I firmly believe the solar pillar is the easiest and I will die on that hill. Literally. Multiple times" has got to be my favorite quote ever 💀

Hint for the Old One's Army. Place penetrating sentries (ie ballista) BEHIND the portals so they don't waste so much DPS shooting at the sky...

My solution for the wall would have been explosive trap sentry placed on top of it over and over while guzzling mana potions

Good job man. Didn’t think it was possible

The scene he said this is only the begining got me shocked

Honestly really really impressive, you could have taken the dmg and incredible speed gained from the shrimpy truffle mount to make the moonlord easier but you found a cooler solution

You should have used some flamebursts for destroyer, they would have been able to hit the probes, and if you put ballistas at the bottom the would have dealt the damage, but it was really creative the way that you actually beat destroyer.

I CANT stop watching this video its so good!

Mad lad! Nice job!

I’m surprised you never used the chest strat. Basically, if you put etherian mana in a chest before the old ones army ends, it stays there and can be used during the next event.

First guy I’ve seen that doesn’t use quality of life mods, keep it up!

Imagine a bloons td 6 crossover where you can summon monkey towers as sentries

Now its time for you to beat Terraria using only NPCS to attack
