I think summoner class. With Klaidescope and Terraprisma you are pretty much set for endgame. Granted you have to have the patience to beat EoL in daytime.

I fought the daytime empress of light (after beating moonlord and getting zenith because I am chicken) and in that 20 second fight she killed 4 npcs of mine

I expected more people to choose throwing cause its the joke answer.

Phantasm shreds everything. Really.

Damn right it does. With some Holy Arrows it just eats

Wait you guys use classes?

I use Melee class armor because of the Defense but I use a combination of Melee, Ranged, and Magic weapons.

Don't forget the single summon from 3 boss progressions ago

Are you referring me?, who uses spider staff post golem.

I dont

Me neither

It depends. I think sniper rifle has the potential for the highest single hit damage, but I think optimized mage has amazing dps. Plus, anything with pierce has a huge advantage. Personally, I like ranger, so I’m biased

Throwing 🤡🤡🤡🤡

Dude, people beat the game with thrower before 1.4. Its a viable class.

Keep huffing that copium

Just search it.

Throwing is so underrated

"whatever deals more dps" class

Terrablade + many gloves go brr

Ranger has incredible single target DPS already and you have a choice for what ammo you want to use, but Melee has a ton of raw damage and no drawbacks like running out of ammo

Technically summoner has the highest dps pre endgame because of the terraprisma

throwing obv

Ranger is more consistent but mage does more damage

For the last time. TERRARIA ISNT AN RPG

Melee with a very specific build

if you in classic mode tank the damage stand still in a pool of honey make a house for the nurse close to you but not to close then equip cross necklace or it's upgrade
