- This Terraria setup can tank the Moon Lord... Hallowed armour, Beetle Armour, Valhalla Knight armor. In this video, we take a look at an extremely tanky pre Moon Lord character setup that utilises high defence and damage reduction. Included in this are a range of stacked accessories like Paladins Shield and the Flesh Knuckles. If you haven't already, I'd highly recommend giving this setup a go as it can quite literally let you sit still for any boss fight. Enjoy!

What's better, max dodge or max tank? 🤔
i think max tank.
I love getting hit by the biggest death god beam and only take 50 damage.
Also i beat expert mode for the first time with melee and all warding.
Dodge
Tanking, it's more consistent.. you miss one dodge and you gotta back away
i prefer dodge
Dodge is pretty good, but defense is a bit more consistent.
If you replace the beetle shell with the shinobi infiltrator torso, you have a pretty balanced late hardmode melee setup which gives you 35% crit, 10% melee damage, 30% melee speed and 74 defense.
Where do I get that?
@@liamlikepotatoes from the Tavernkeep, but it is only available post Golem
Personally, I'd replace the Hallowed Mask with the Chlorophyte mask, it's only 4 less defense but melee damage stats are quite high, sure the crit chance increase is less but that's compensated for by the Valhalla boots
But I agree both are viable
Lmao you're saying "balanced"
Yeah… “balanced”
The thing i like about you is that even after 500 hours in terraria i still see new things here , this one isn't so new i saw a few times before. Keep the good work brotha

@@funkyneb8422 im not playing for numbers , i just play when i feel like it.
Vital Crystal and Aegis Fruit from shimmering Life Crystal and Life Fruit respectively. Vital Crystal ups your base regen and Aegis Fruit gives you a permanent +4 Defense.
There's also max damage setups that can shred ML faster than he can kill you, but for general survivability, nothing beats just being too tanky to die.
What's the setup
@@xtcchewy2483 probably gonna have something to do with a ranger/summoner hybrid
whats a the setup?
@@thejanitor5671 wooden armor and no access
@@thejanitor5671 try something like: spooky armor, terraprisma, kaleidoscope+ (any other whip you like), berserker gloves, ninja gear, the beetle scarab. Other stuff doesnt matter that much if it's late hm. ML will die quick asf
Been following your content for a little while now, and I have to say I love how much it has evolved, you've become more energetic and louder in your videos without losing the formal and informative tone they aspire while keeping a very well edited and concise style, giving exactly what the viewer hopes to see when clicking on the video, while never dragging on.
Heck, even when you're not talking about the meat of the video, such as when you're mentioning how long it personally took you to get an item to drop, the constant pace of your speech and the relateability in not getting the item you want to drop never had me skipping ahead.
Ay thanks i appreciate it ❤️

I love mixed armour sets, they really spice up a playthrough and are honestly better than normal sets... usually lol
It's rare to find someone who doesn't have Armor OCD. It's not like Minecraft, so I honestly don't know how mixed armor doesn't annoy you.
@@Human..Being... that’s why I’m glad vanity slots exist
@@thatonekid2.0 Especially Vanity Accessories.
I use them as an Inventory Extension.
Other than that, I use Vanity items for the Vanity armor slots because now we have Loadouts.
@@Human..Being... It's because either the set bonus is completely useless or mixing armor has statistically better stats that the looks of the armor in union gets overshadowed. Considering that i even go out of my way to cheat for vanity of all things and only vanity, i see mixing armor as a complete win in some scenarios
@@asutora.5363 In literally every last Summoner Playthrough or Loadout, I get the Capricorn Set (Tail, Helmet, Chestplate) before Hardmode. It has a very Stardust/Celestial appearance and actually fits the Summoner mood, "As protective as glass!".
More like Glass Artillery, not just a Cannon.
3:50 Empress of Light daytime: Well.... Ur dead
Are you talking about pre 1.4.4 cause.. The dodge build doesnt work in the latest ver
Tanking funni
Hehehe, funni haha
I’ve killed 23 Palladians and haven’t got a shield
Skill issue
Yah
@@northster1294 i killed only 3 and got 2 hammer and 1 shield. (It was in master world)
Man, i've followed you for a few months and i can clearly see all the evolution and improvement that your content has gone through time.
I really love your content and some of your reviews had me want to use some weapons that normally their existence would have been unknown for me (like the Sky fracture or the Spirit flame).
Now i'm doing a mage playthrough and for sure i'm gonna use some of those weapons.
Greetings from Spain ❤️
(Sorry if my spelling was bad, I'm still learning English)
Ay thanks, it’s great to hear you’re enjoying the content, really appreciate it ❤️
You're English is fine
This is essentially what I built when Journey's End came out (in Master mode, only difference is that I just used all Beetle armor pre-Moon Lord).
It was very funny shrugging off everything Moon Lord would think of throwing at me... outside of the big laser, that I still needed to avoid. My friend (who was doing a mage DPS build), wasn't so happy with the revelation of how much more effective my build was at bossing.
I couldn't even beat Golem with a Mage Loadout. I shredded the Moon Lord in 20 seconds with a Summoner Loadout. For pre Moon Lord, I first beat him with Titanium Armor and in my 1.4.4 playthrough, I first-tried him with Valhalla Knight armor and Ballistas.
@@Human..Being...absolute madman killing moon lord with ballistas
@@KikiCatMeow It was easy because I had a Campfire, Heart Lantern, Dryad healing, Honey, 7 tile walls, and a chair. I healed about 30 HP a second with this setup. The Valhalla Knight set increased my regeneration as well. If I were to try without the Regen station, I wouldn't have survived.
I later did a Summon Only Run, where I used a Minion Summoner Loadout against the Moon Lord, and it took an Asphalt Runway, a Nurse, and 11 attempts to win, in which I dealt the entire 125000 damage in 2 minutes... Pro Tip: Get a Terraprisma, rather than the Stardust Cell staff I used in my Summon Run, which does double the DPS of a Stardust Dragon or Cell.
I absolutely like your content. Actual useful tips and really consistent.
Need more unique gear setup videos like this. Doesn't have to be an OP build but just show off some neat gear combos. Atleast one on best bee setups please. Keep up the great work. Loving these videos!
Now this was epic. sockrteez u r maximizing the potential of this game and I love every bit of it
Prehaps an i-frame extention like the cross necklace could be better than the berserker's glove in the long run?
I think Terraria perfectly hits the intersection between powerful setups and restraint. Like, in some games you can try and get literally every single damage-modifying perk; and it'll literally just be like a +15% increase overall, from everything. But you wouldn't want buffs to be way too powerful cuz then the game is way too class-dependent.
I think that's one of the main reasons people like Terraria and its progression so much.
I would realy enjoy more videos like this
You reccomending setups, and combos!
Thanks for making this video, it worked Incredibly well!
Its great to see another Tank setup from you, this pleases the facetanker :D
Have you ever thought about making a Video on the Strange Brew? I beat GFB with the power of Strange Brew + Charm of Myths
Sockrteez trying to figure out his next video: "Hmm, I suppose I could maybe find another item- DANG IT I DIED AGAIN! I'm never gonna beat the Moon Lord at this point. Alright, how much defense can I get!? I'm gonna roleplay as the Dungeon Guardian"
"if it can tank the moonlord it can tank anything else"
daytime empress of light: 🗿
*Laughs in Dungeon Guardian*
You don't know how much you've just helped me i think with this armour set-up i will just reforge my already existing accessories to have more defense
I had to use a somewhat different build which is a tank mixed with a dodge build technically which helped me beat the moon lord on legendary difficulty! It requires all the accessories you previously mentioned, but i believe I replaced the flesh knuckles with a cross necklace, and the armor was just a full set of turtle, only issue being it’s thorn capabilities, but we had spawn statues of eater of souls and they would not die too often from the armor and if one DID, it would instantly be replaced. They should deal 1 damage to the player and grant them infinite I-frames if done right, just make sure to have the inferno brand or captain America shield or whatever the name is. For a solid like 20 more defense. And grapple to the ground, use the shield ability of your weapon, and have a couple heart statues with the campfire and honey, and heart lantern box. This DOES require to be on multiplayer but it is sooooooo good, just make sure the other player dealing damage to moon lord doesn’t have any aggro grabbing gear on otherwise moon lord will shift his focus off the tank. The only way you’d die doing this is if you’re so incredibly unlucky that the souls don’t hit you fast enough, but if for some reason the turtle armor doesn’t work out, just replace it with beetle.
I know im a bit late, but could you maybe make a video on how to build the box and the other „arena box stuff“? I could not find a video on what needs to be where and where i get everything.
But the rest of the video was great. Keep up the great work!
I honistly had a bit of doubt about this utill I tryed it and oh man thank you for making this video becouse i would have never complete the game without it 😁
btw, the full defense of the mixed armor set is 80, while the beetle armor provides 75, but the beetle armor's set bonus gives you damage resistance, of course said bonus wont help much if you are constantly hit.
I just wanted to say, your thumbnail design is GEORGOUS!
"If it can tank moonlord, it can tank anything else"
Day time EoL: Did someone call for me?
Its stupid to compare defense and dodge to Daytime EOL since you ARE only comparing it on a single enemy that can insta kill even if you make a FULL tank build
2 things use SHIMMER to upgrade life fruits and life crystals for extra regen and defense second thing (idk if this one is better) you can use the gem that golem drops since is easy to use and gives you a lot of health,but you will have to use a summon weapon and dont attack but i think you can afk with this strat
"if it can tank Moon Lord, it can tank anything else"
Daytime Empress and Dungeon Guardian give you a look and hard-press 'x' to doubt
Wait was that a reference to the Nero Shadows of Evil quote at 0:36? If so nice haha
Thank you i finally beat moon lord but i used berserkera glove, frozen sheild, celestial shell, worm scarf, and the fire gauntlet with the armer you recomended thank you(normal mode)
It's been a while since I did it, but it's possible to facetank Master Mode Moon Lord with a different setup. Full Turtle armor, Shiny Stone, Frozen Shield, Star Veil, Worm Scarf, Brain of Confusion, Master Ninja Gear, and Charm of Myths. Weapon of choice is Stardust Dragon/Cell Staff, and either the Sergeant United Shield or the Brand of the Inferno. Arena has the usual campfire, Bast, and heart lantern, a small honey pool to stay in, and the Dryad to provide her buff along with the Nurse to keep her alive. Build a small box around you to reduce on the projectiles. Summon your Stardust minion of choice, buff up, and hold right click. It's pretty much just healing and buffing when necessary as you let your minion do all the work.
I swear to god when I was doing my master mode play through I was trying to find the best setup I could get and this is the one I ended up with, I found it out by myself. It’s pretty cool to see someone spreading the word about it tho, because in my opinion it’s the best armor to fight ML in (for melee)
i just realized you where more than 100 k, so congrats!
sockrteez: this setup can tank any boss in the game
wof and deol: are we a joke to you
He’s got us covered again
Id recommend adding some kind of afk movement, be it minecart rails, hoiks, or teleporters. A well set up arena with this completely removes the need for a specialized build, and often allows for weapons that cant hit through blocks. In fact, basically all modded bosses (that are meant to be beaten) can be cheesed this way, though it often comes down to ludicrous world spanning highly complicated minecart rails.
However,
It looks like you are more interested in minimal arena setup, in which case I recommend the Star Veil, which extends the duration of i-frames and also deals damage when hit, paired with standing in lava. The result of this is essentially an 70% chance brain of confusion, at the cost of almost all standard health regen. This will require reasonably high defense, to reduce the contact damage of lava, but not as much as you use in this video. Alternatively, if you are willing to equip bandage/ankh shield to negate the bleeding, spikes allow you to proc i-frames significantly faster, allowing even better odds of avoiding damage. Hope this helps!
This is fascinating. Which accessory would you recommend swapping for the star veil? Berserker gloves? And would this switch still be worth if there was only honey and no lava?
We need longer videos mate!
These informative vids are fine at 4 or 5 mins but you should make some lets plays, it would be great
Swap the Palladin's Shield out for the Celestial Shell for an additional defense point boost (and all the other perks of the item)
Did not expect to see a drifting tank today
If you're reading this Sockrteez, could you make a video on the Thunder Zapper? Its a pre boss magic weapon that's found in the underground desert and despite being super easy to obtain I found it to be quite powerful, especially when paired with jungle armor.
It's like a really powerful gemstone staff.
@@Human..Being... it's like a gemstone staff that went through an entire anime training arc and is capable of outdamaging every other magic weapon until post skeletron despite being a pre boss weapon found inside a sandstone chest
@@josiahkiehl510 Actually, I used the Weather Pain to kill Skeletron on Expert Mode. But I get your point.
@StonkMarketMan what's the Weather Pain? I'm on my first mage playthrough rn so I've never heard of it
@@josiahkiehl510 A drop from Deerclops. Ignores 10 defense points and chases enemies.

Daytime empress of light and dungeon guardian: "Am I a joke to you"
Reminds of me back then a year ago when I was really into payday 2 and, I would watch a load ton of payday 2 build videos for death sentence one down
Damn son this is crazy daytime
max dmg red. is 73% So running beetle armor with a worm scarf, with an endurance potion it will already give you 72% dmg reduction. The other item slots you can now use for dmg but if you want to go all out defensively you can run a pretty good i-frames/dodge build which is clearly op by itself
I also recommend the Sergeant Shield since it can increase your defense in 20
I'm not sure about that old one's army sword that does the same thing
Idk if it increases the same amount or even more
But including the perfect parry to negate the damage entirely
I use the sword and explosive trap sentry to kill fishron, just build a box and parry him
"I'm invincible.. I can't be vinced!" - Nero, shadows of evil
Was that a black ops 3 shadows of evil reference
Yippie time to tank moon lord
It might me also good to have some king slime summons. It will teleport to you a deliver free hearths
One time I was trying to get the frozen turtle shell and it took me two hours. I got a bunch of other things that had very low drop rates during this and I was about to give up when I finally got it.
That bo3 Nero reference
''lettuce'' begin hahaha 0:39
Love the Shaodows of evil reference, if that's where you got it?

I still can't debate which accessory i should replace for the wings, soaring insignia, celestial shell and terrasparks.
Those accessories are basically my entire setup and i have like all with warding.
Autocaptions here are AMAZING
There needs to be upgrades to expert mode boss drops like the worm scarf
I’ll finally be Able to farm the duke. I hate fighting him but he gives such good loot
It seems you have taken quite the liking in the flying dragon sword
Finally, daytime empress here I come!
I failed to dodge any of the death rays but still won easily
small note: if you're doing classic and don't have enough slots for all 6 items, leave off the flesh knuckles
This setup of armor does tank the moonlord just go in more prepared with potions and buffs to avoid death if you worry about taking too many hits. This armor is great to use against the moon
can you make a video on how to make your box to fight the bosses, many would like to see how you made it :)
at about 3:10 could you elaborate on the setup you got there? I'm rahter new to the game so I have little clue on what is going on with the electrical stuff
TH-cam didn't tell me about this, maybe check up with that.😊
if u get a 2 demon hearts then u can get terraspark boots and obsidian shield which removes knock back
Moonlord & wof: "No YoU CaNt Do THaT iM a bIG sCary fInAL boSS
Player: cheese go burr
Have you made a video on all the obscure things you can shimmer?
Max Dodge go burrrr
Could this strategy work with a Horseman's Blade...? (with the "Legendary" prefix, preferably)
pretty good, what were the other items that you didnt bother including however? im curious
Stuff like dryads blessing buff, blocking with a shield etc. Handy on master mode but not needed on expert :)
@@sockrteez pretty interesting, thank you
You don't have to make a new world if you have the crimson, you can buy corrupt seeds from the dryad while in a graveyard biome.
Does it difference what blocks i use to build the box??
I would recommend wood armor as it has the lowest defense which make the moonlord have mercy on you
"I'M INVINCIBLE, I CAN'T BE VINCED" 😂
isn't damage reduction pretty redundant if you have a high defence build? since it only applies after defence
bro got the triple decker shield
That's cool and all, but how much damage does it do
sockrteez what resource pack are you using for background?
uhhh what's the chance of getting a paladin shield AND the hammer in first kill..? in master mode..
and getting another shield in the second kill
How do you make your farms? I would love a tutorial!
Did you used the motus aspect from thaumcraft as the dodge icon at the start of the video?
My setup face tanks master mode moonlord without buffs or an arena or any blocks
And also without zenith
It uses melee summoner and mage with Valhalla set
Drop the setup cuz
Even on master mode and the get fixed boi world where bosses do usually 3x damage? does it survive a hit from something like dungeon guardian?
I am way too lazy to do this, but still a cool strategy.
Life Crystals and Life Fruit yeeted into a bit of shimmer to get their additional Regen and Armor.
And why not use a pump to move it somewhere where you can conveiniently make Cursed Dungeon walls for farm setups if needed?
sockrteez is leterally the best weapon reviewer
Does this setup woks better on master mode? As I know defence works better on MM also you have acces to 7 accesories.
"if you can tank the moonlord, you can tank anything else"
DG and EOL:
Does moonlord have a different immunity frams form other enemy meaning you can make a invincibility farm from moonlord
I tried it in Calamity Infernum Masters mode…
I died horribly.
0:36 is that a reference to something? The closest I remember is from a COD game in Zombies
Haha it sure is! From SoE. You're the first person to get it I think lol
@@sockrteez Yoooooo that's awesome!
Don’t worry lol, the frozen turtle shell for some reason always takes me the longest as well! Okay even with a battle potion, blood moon, and water candle with 10x spawn rate, I just got incredibly unlucky
Wow, I had to keep trashing Frozen Turtle Shells when looking for Ice Skates!
@@Human..Being... I swear XD it’s the one time I actually want the shells when they decide to not drop
Me: I finally found it, Now who's gonna STOP MEEEE!!!
Daytime Empress of Light: Allow me to introduce myself.
They normally say the best defence is a good offence
Bro the best defence is a better defence
Don’t forget to put warding reforge on all the accessories, but other than that this is the most defensive armor set I have ever seen!
3:50 Dungeon Guardians be like : "you lucky skeletron's dead!"
