Is the MIniShark the best way to kill the Brain

[xJustCloudz]

I cant kill the brain if it would save my life and im thinking of getting the minishark cause of the power it has. is it a smart choice

Try using better armor? A better weapon isn't the solution to everything, better armor(and accessories, when applicable) also have huge effects

[Dr. McWeazel]

Better armor (Silver/Tungsten at least, Gold/Platinum is what I recommend if you don't have access to Crimson Armor already) and some defensive accessories (Really anything that adds defense) will help a great deal more than a better weapon. The difference could be night and day.

Also, look for an Enchanted Boomerang. No ammo required, hits at a good range, solid knockback, and, best of all, it does melee damage, so any melee bonuses will apply to it.

It also wouldn't hurt to set up a small arena. Platforms for easily dropping down or jumping up, campfires and heart lanterns for extra regen. Maybe set up some traps if you can figure out how to get them going without landing yourself in trouble. A heart statue popping out hearts wouldn't be a bad idea, either, provided you have access to wire.

Other than that, I rather like my Minishark. It's helped me in some tight spots, and I tend to keep myself stocked in bullets, just in case my sword just won't cut it in some situation or other.

Demon Scythe, if you take your risk in the Underworld.
If not, just look for something with big knockback. I killed it first with the enchanted boomerang, because was the only good weapon that I had.

[KZAisling]

Although the Minigun is a fine weapon, I'd be more concerned about the armor I have. I waited to fight any bosses until I had Silver armor and it was a breeze, but that may have been something to do with the fact that I made a Diamond Staff (since it pierces so well, it hit tons of eyes, I'd recomend that if you have the diamonds and mana)

[cblindsey3]

We use molotov cocktails and they work great on earlier bosses

[APPLEslices]

You could kill the brain in better ways but its still good. But definetely use the megashark against the mechanical bosses in hardmode
