Can I Beat EXPERT MODE Terraria With Just One Set of Gear?

accessories are an essential part of any Terraria playthrough providing unique abilities and bonuses to your character meanwhile armor provides crucial defensive and offensive capabilities while mountains and hooks can help you Traverse the world's fast and varied landscapes one of the most beloved aspects of the game is being able to experiment with different sets of these items finding the perfect combination to suit your individual playstyle and take on the game's many bosses however in this video I'm going to be taking on the challenge of completing Terraria using only one set of equipment I'll have to make my choices early on and stick with them through thick and thin so join me as I dive head first into the world of Terraria and see if I can complete the game with just one set of equipment after spawning into the world I begin exploring to see what I can find my first goal is to get enough Life Crystals to summon the Goblin Army as well as enough diamonds to craft a hook I won't have access to boots or wings for quite some time so I made the choice to equip a hook early on this will provide me with a highly effective means of movement allowing smoother travel throughout the world and reducing the frequency of unfortunate deaths after some time in the caverns I found a few diamonds but not enough for a hook so I crafted these into gem currents and waited for them to grow well I kept exploring during this time I found a gravitation potion which led to the star Fury providing me an excellent weapon for the early game by now some of the diamond trees had grown so I cut them down and crafted the best pre-boss work in the game and the only hook I'd be using in this playthrough with this small upgrade I felt much more powerful so began working towards my first accessory the amphibian boots these are much easier to obtain and arguably better than the Spectra boots or their subsequent upgrades requiring only some fishing and defeating the Goblin Army the first step is simple just a little bit of fishing for the frog leg and then opening some crates for the sailfish boots with the ingredients obtained it was time to work on the crafting station needed to combine them I didn't want to deal with random Goblin armies later on in the playthrough so I constructed a platform above the ocean to farm for Goblin Scouts this would also double as magic Fest on Arena further down the line after a while I had obtained enough turret cloth to make the Goblin Battle standard so I summoned to the Goblin Army and took them out with the star Fury from the safety of my home with the Goblin's defeated I went out in search of the goblin tinkerer and soon found him the Goblin nice for once not buying the rocket boots now that I had the workshop I could combine the frog leg and selfish boots to make my first accessory okay let's create our first accessory the amphibian boots though I'm gonna load reforging I've decided that I will allow reforging even though Auburn is pretty good considering thus the only defense we're gonna have for quite a while other than potions I guess potions exist said potions would be very useful in my upcoming fate against the Eye of Cthulhu whoever first came building an arena which My Stream chat quickly reminded me should be made out of mushroom platforms your Arena must be made of shrooms you're right I'm I'm so sorry how how could I forget you see for some reason my stream chat quickly became obsessed with the mushroom biome during this playthrough with almost every message being some kind of meme surrounding it culminating in seven minutes straight of shroom references while I built my arena for the eye make a shrimp chest for shrimp related things I do have a shroom chest shrimp campfires too well I've kind of run out of shroom to be honest I'm gonna need to go down to the shrimp biome again to get mushroom okay it's just instrument time make sure to use the shroommate digging claw once I can get it I will definitely use it turn the surface jungle into a streamland is the arena from shroom on purpose yes everything is true on purpose even the stuff that sucks Dental we did a shroom Farm srivate I mean this is basically a shrimp farm like these are this will just naturally gross rooms over time without you having to go through any effort to make one aren't shroom Farms illegal no it depends what you love after the shrooming was over I summoned the Eye of Cthulhu to unlock my second accessory The Shield of Cthulhu yeah foreign [Applause] accessory that's one of the only two dashing accessories in the game this one was a no-brainer for me even in a normal playthrough there's a good chance I'd still be using this well into the end game and luckily the same can be said for the next accessory too I mean I'm assuming the star Fury is going to be all right for this although it's maybe not the best thing to use considering it doesn't Pierce much we'll get that though we can always fight it again foreign with both a one in six chances of dodging attacks and a 20 boost to crit chances after a Dodge the brain of confusion has an excellent mix of defensive and offensive abilities making it an easy choice in this playthrough after crafting a deathbringer pickaxe I made my way to the underworld to mine hellstone although without wanting to equip any items made from it my only upgrades could come from weapons um is hailstorm going to be useful for anything I guess the volcano is really good against um Skeletron a purge and I've not actually used it since it's been reworked so I might give that a go the only thing left to do before Skeletron was building an arena at the dungeon oh hi why is there an eye here ah well that was tense um but yeah obviously very easy um not an issue at all with Skeletron defeated it was time to prepare for the Wall of Flesh after exploring the dungeon for a while I considered equipping a Cobalt or Obsidian Shield but to save it to instead go for the superior strategy of not getting hit ask for weapons I upgraded to the Night's Edge for high damage at a close range and the water ball for low damage while not dying so after constructing a bridge across Hill it was time to summon the wall with some expansion of my hell bridge and placing down Arena Buffs I was able to take down the wall also reaching the point where the speed is becoming an issue all right Final Stand oh 196 Health oh that's painful I said take down the wall I'll probably call this I'll do this yeah yeah it was easy that only took like one attempt right first time first time well the lack of defense and damage was a bit of an annoyance in pretty hard mode it was about to become a death sentence know that I was in hard mode what's the worst that can happen oh that yeah that's the worst that could happen I kind of thought that would happen not before I did it but once it started that was fun brilliant I I love this playthrough so far well I decided to hold off on equipping armor there was a couple of accessories I could use that would massively boost my survivability and both just needed me to kill a bunch of mimics starville would be very very nice to put on I'm not gonna lie so if I did starve you I would then have wings and one other slot which would probably be the charm of myths but then that's all of my slots taken up for the rest of the game foreign I'm thinking charm of myths is a no-brainer because it it's viable until late game because you get better and better and get very very potions as you go so charm of myths is in fact going on however starville I'm not sure about yet I feel like I should maybe just go for it we've gone for it so I now have five of my six accessories that I can use throughout the playthrough still don't have a mount yeah which is a good thing because it means that there's still some choice in the playthrough but I was soon going to take that choice away because next up was Queen slime foreign foreign [Music] I died many times but so did she and eventually I got the gelatinous pillion Mount to drop and equipped my one and only Mount this playthrough I went for this moment in particular for a variety of reasons not only does it provide a fast run Speed Unlimited flight but it also gives one of the best fall speeds in the game making it useful even after we've equipped wings for now though I'm going to use it to take down the mags the Destroyer is up close and the meteor staff rather fittingly destroys him while the bounce effect of the Queen's slime Mount allows me to land on him without taking damage after a rather quick fight the Destroyers defeated [Music] so first Smackdown which means Hallowed Bars we should hopefully be able to do quite a lot with hallowed wires including weapon upgrades and armor and since I've got 33 I can actually do the Greaves and a headgear of some kind I'm thinking Melly just for the defense alone because that's an extra 16 defense from the rest of them and I even if I do want to go multi-class I don't think it's worth going for one of these other ones just for that I mean this would also help with um Summoner I guess because I'd have the increased melee speed but it is now time to make the first piece of armor in the entire playthrough I think that's the first time my armor has been over 30. so definitely don't want the Hollywood Hood sure it would increase my damage against everything because I'd have summons at all times but one defense is nothing I think I'm gonna go for the Howard mask so our first and only two pieces farmer all I need to do now is defeat another Mech and then I'll have a full set of armor 55 defense from League 20. that's crazy this increased defense allowed me to take out Skeletron Prime with ease and after completing the armor set the twins are next foreign with all the mix defeated and a full set of armor equipped I felt incredibly powerful however there was still one more accessory slot to be filled and that wouldn't come easy foreign [Music] you may be wondering why I'm fighting Duke now instead of going the intended route of Plantera and Golem first well the answer is simple Duke drops the best wings and when I can only equip one pair throughout this entire playthrough why settle for anything less than the best I've been confused oh God right but it's going to face three surely got that was bad we got this there we go nice and tsunami that's pretty good actually I should be able to take the engine a lot easier the tsunami definitely did help but nowhere near as much as the bubble gun he dropped on his third death well that feels like much higher damage yeah that is good can't believe I've never used the bubble gum before God this feels overpowered almost that was so quick and for shortlings warding as well nice um finally got wings the second Dash and fly at the same time with some of the best wings and weapons in the game it was time for a Boss Rush foreign beautiful foreign [Applause] next I took down the pillars upgraded my weapons and waited for the Rival of the moonlord thank you foreign Terraria with only one set of accessories armor and mouse and hook one set of everything except for weapons I guess
