Advice for killing expert mode twins with Yoyos?

[WalterREQUiEM]

I can beat any other boss except the Twins, they're a dead end for my yoyo character. I have a skybridge, all the combat buff potions, and 72 defense and I still can't beat them.The first phase of the fight isn't hard but when Spasmatism won't give you a single second to get a breather it's almost impossible to kill him without dying.

Its best to use AoE or homing magic but knowing people for that matter they don't use it. They only just use melee or range and think it'll work out in the end. Not really.

I already cheesed the Wall of Flesh with Beenades, and I don't really want to go outside of my melee build again.

Yeah, believe me that was the very first thing I went after when Hardmode hit.

If it helps my accessories are

Warding Cenx's wings
Warding Worm Scarf
Warding Frozen Turtle Shell
Warding Ankh Shield
Warding YoYo Bag
Warding Star Veil

What yo-yo are you using? Might try to get a better one if possible.

Expert mode twins with yo-yo IS hard, I know because I tried. I don't remember my exact set-up, but I THINK that I used Endurance, Regen, Lifeforce, ironskin, and some Wrath potions, as well as some pumpkin pie. I used NOT a skybridge, but an arena. Was 8 rows of platforms, each 10 blocks apart for easy maneuvering with Leaf Wings. I had the Sharpening Station and some heart statues, heart LANTERNS, campfires, a honey pool, and a nurse nearby in a house on the ground. I used Adamantite armor, and I beat them on my 2nd try. Dunno if this helps, I hope it does.

You could try using a minecart track either with bouncers to keep you moving rapidly or a circular track. That way you can get a little more defense and not worry about controling your motion and instead focus on doing damage.

I've never tried doing a strict class type playthrough before myself. I'd be impressed if you can do it with yoyo's. I always go with whatever I have that will give me the biggest advantage. For all the hardmode bosses until Golem that meant using the Daedalus Stormbow with Holy Arrows.

Hey, I managed to beat them with a semi-cheesy strat.

I had a Godly Yelets, so I believe I had the best yoyo available to me. I finally beat them by magic mirroring to my sky house then flying to the nurse and quickly healing before magic mirroring back to my skyhouse and flying to my skybridge. It was very convoluted, but as soon as Spazmatism died Retinazer wasn't even a threat.

Thanks for the response, I did use all of those potions as well as Poison and Cursed Flames flasks. I had Adamantite armor as well, I chose it over the Hallowed armor for giving more straight up damage.

Absolutely zero melee speed bonuses. Wouldn't that completely murder your yoyo's range?

Plus, with so little offensive power, the Twins must stay alive for freakin' ever, giving them a lot more time to damage you.

At the very least I'd switch the Star Veil (useless unless you get hit twice in rapid succession) for a Mechanical Glove or something...

Yoyos are really strong, this should be more than doable.

Put Lucky on all your accessories to land an excessive amount of crits. Get better wings, dev wings suck. Try doing a Pumpkin Moon event and try to stay alive long enough to get the spooky wings & twig hook. The Twins is all about staying out of their attack zone so mobility is key, swiftness potion.

Try to get a Warrior Emblem from the WoF instead of the Ankh shield or Star veil.

Your build is too much about taking damage instead of giving damage.

This, yoyos aren't great as tank weapons. They get insane dps when built around offense and the bag range bonus makes Yelets more than enough for any of the mech bosses.
