@@Jordan-ud4qvit's just pretty goated, as you just have a whip (a pretty decent range weapon) that can have flasks. Then you can summon little goobers to kill most things with the highest dps. The only downside is, you're made of paper. Late game you could just focus on minion slots. Mounts also scale with summoner so you just have a lot in your toolkit. Just minions won't attack players in pvp
In line with how many of the best "melee" weapons are actually just projectile weapons, I like how Calamity (and probably some other mods, I'm just most familiar with Calamity) provides a variety of "True Melee" weapons that try to compensate for the lack of projectiles with other stats like insane dps and lifesteal. It makes it feel like you're actually playing melee while also making it more rewarding.
I did a true melee run of Calamity a while ago. While I was able to do my job well (Especially with so many items to buff up my attack size) it was unfortunate to have to pass up so many cool sounding weapons
Every time I see a shortsword being able to attack in any direction, it makes me so happy! It was awful when you could only attack horizontally originally.
There's 4 classes. Melee (self explanatory), ranger (guns, bows, and throwable objects), mage (pew pew magik), and summoner (make minions do the killing for you).
After getting the meowmere and star wrath from the moon lord you can farm events for the horsemans's blade and influx waver, then you can farm plantera for the seedler, queen bee for the bee keeper, obtain an enchanted sword and a copper sword to combine them all into the Zenith
Happened to me too bought game on xbox and had no idea what I was doing despite playing it a few years ago but I watched the guide and now I made it to hardmode with nights edge and molten armour in just 3 days
Just for a update I've beaten the game I now have zenith I have every boss relic (besides the Christmas event) and my world is 26% hollowed and 1% corrupted.
You just needed to drink a dangersense potion to find the fake walls in the dungeon. Most of the dungeon is behind the fake walls that crumble if you try to shoot/bomb/mine them.
Scourge was really sweet before the 1.3 update but now it feels incredibly outclassed since by the time you get it you (should) have the Terra Blade. After getting my Vampire Knives I made a Corruption world to get SotC, played with it for a few just to throw it in with all the other weapons I never use. But assuming you don’t have Terra Blade and your main world is corruption it’s a good replacement.
you forgot the last step, it goes something like this (AHEEMMMMMM) "the player, joyously celebrates after defeating moonlord and is FINALLY able to craft zenith, but then realizes that they cant use it on anything since its already the end of the game and fighting a previously deafeated boss with it wouldnt feel as good" "then the player says f terraria and goes to calamity instead"
Ah yes, the Melee class. Which eventually ends up becoming the one class that does damage by Summoning Magical Ranged sword projectiles at whatever poor soul that ends up on your screen.
Not mentioned: ultimate Solar warrior, and winning the Zenith master race and then slamming into everything in the world before starting over. But yeah, that pretty much covered everything, good job.
A melee build is usually best suited for multiplayer, as they can tank the hits for other players, while summoners, mages, and rangers can do damage from afar as a boss aggros on a melee player. Nice short btw!

cool video but i think you could add accessories to these short and helpful guides too
I just got into terraria, and it would seem I got so much to learn.i didn't even know they had character classes
There's 4 classes. Melee (self explanatory), ranger (guns, bows, and throwable objects), mage (pew pew magik), and summoner (make minions do the killing for you).
Other People:Use another melee weapons..
Me:TerraBlade..

getting some summon weapon is always gonna be better than not having one! even if youre a mage or a ranger

“And then go to hell” got me laughing
this guy just makes the classes so easy i love it
As someone who just started playing Terraria. This is overwhelming
You will learn
I thought it was overwhelming too. Then I did two or three worlds in master. Then I played other games. You'll understand eventually, my dude.

One part about being melee is that you stubbornly refuse to use a variety of weapons during boss fights. You use one weapon the whole fight

This was one of the better shorts
My "class" when I play terraria is "this has higher stats, I'm this class now"

There's no way that it wasn't generated by ChatGPT
Ah yes, the Melee class. Which eventually ends up becoming the one class that does damage by Summoning Magical Ranged sword projectiles at whatever poor soul that ends up on your screen.
This is exactly what I did on my first play through of terraria with no prior knowledge of the game, simply strait to the point.
Not mentioned: ultimate Solar warrior, and winning the Zenith master race and then slamming into everything in the world before starting over.
But yeah, that pretty much covered everything, good job.
Volcano? Nay. It will always be THE FIERY GREATSWORD.
It's the "I run an M4 in TDM" of classes, but the game is several magnitudes easier than it is with any other class.
Amazing. You think we have the patience to make the Blade of Grass.
You forgot at the end “realize you threw away your copper short sword and it’s a tin world”
In short: You're going from one ranged weapon to a different ranged weapon, coping that your ranged damage is counted as "melee"
Except that it’s somehow better than the actual ranged class
