best melee weapon to use fighting wall of flesh in for the worthy.

last time i did it i used starfury with a bridge that spanned the entire world. dont really feel like doing that again. any suggestions on different weapons/strategies ?

[ILMITICO57]

sunfury, pretty consistent damage

use the cascate, sunfury, and some hermes boot's. the point is stay close and far from WoF, when he stay so much close to you on the speedy mode, you have to use night's edge or the anhklis.

Tried for days to beat wof melee only. Gave up after that. I could usually get him down to a quarter health, but the respawning hungry never failed to nip my heels.

I switched to mage and beat him first try.

use the nights edge

From my personal experience, the safest and easiest way is still with the Starfury, and a tunnel to block the lasers. Cascade doesn't pierce and isn't terribly long and so can't deal damage too consistently, as you'll keep getting overwhelmed by The Hungry which respawn at a rapid pace.

I haven't actually tested the Sunfury, so I can't speak for that- but I imagine it may suffer from similar issues as the Cascade. The Night's Edge, however, simply will not work as you have to position yourself far too close to the boss for it to even be somewhat effective.

About the tunnel strategy as well, you may only want to position it to begin at the latter half of the fight where the lasers start to become rapid and stronger as it'll give you more breathing room to dodge leeches beforehand. And make sure the tunnel roof isn't minimum height so you can at least make an attempt to dodge any leeches at that part of the fight.

Night's Edge is your solution

dark lance or night's edge

i have been able to beat him pretty quick just with bombs... it destroys your bridge but your going the opposite way so it does not matter. if you have a lot of them it can prove effective. Make sure you are using actual blocks and not platforms for your bridge cuz bombs go through the platforms.

He said as melee ... bomb are out.

Are you TRUE melee or just using melee weapon ? if all melee weapon are allowed the yoyo High five is pretty good with counter weight/ white cord + hive pack.

PS: Don't forget to buff with a sharpening station for more armor penetration before the fight.
