Soooooo u guys team Blaze or Arcanum?
Hi
Switch between them. Blaze primary, arcanum as a switch out
Arcanum, it's so satisfying to see all the simultaneous damage ticks (especially if you're using Spectre Armor). It's like launching a barrage of nukes. Blaze is cool but the stellar tune performs similarly and the functionality is nothing special.
I usually use Arcanum if normal mode but Blaze if Expert and above. Arcanum has more raw power so on Normal where the Moon Lord fight is pretty easy I use it, but Blaze has better homing so on Expert and above I use it instead to focus on dodging.
Nebula Blaze
When i use the arcanum i never aim directly at the target; assuming they’re following my path i just shoot around me and when they try to follow me they essentially walk into a minefield. It’s like if you shoot 20 or so or whatever the max is and then spawn your boss and it’s so much dps and so satisfying
One great thing about the Arcanum is it's benefits when playing multiplayer. If one player distracts the Moon Lord and runs away, the mage player can stack up hundreds of the Arcanum projectiles. The other player can then loop back and guide the Moon Lord through the projectiles for tons of damage. I used this strategy with a friend once and it worked really well with the Specter Hood as you could then heal the other player after their run while still dealing some hefty damage. We also used to stack up loads before the fight by throwing them into a wall allowing them to slow down and stay in one area ready to home in as soon as Moon Lord spawns.
This is the first comment I've made on a sockrteez video but I have to say that I've found these videos really entertaining, I've watched the majority of your catalogue at this point and I love the content! Keep it up!
That’s actually really cool, I’ll have to try it once Terraria gets cross platform in 5 years
Mage tbh is the most underrated class nowadays. Most DPS throughout the game until post-Moon Lord but requires more skill to play than the other three classes
Summoner sometimes requires more skill. Late hardmode armour has the same defense as late prehardmode melee armour. Any mistake takes away like half your health.
As a summoner player, *DOUBT*
Hahahahahahahahhaahahahhahahaahhaa
No
I've played all classes.
Never even attempted to finish summoner because WHO THE FUCK ACTUALLY FIGHTS THE PUMPKIN MOON IN A REGULAR PLAYTHROUGH????
Yeah, mage is good. I wouldn't say there's a definitive best one, but it's in my top 2.
It needs more skill?? The entire class is litterally ranger with no ammo consumption lmfao
Title as of 2 minutes after upload: These Terraria weapons are a masterclass in balance.
it amazes me how much information there is in a 5 min video, my fav terraria youtuber for sure
Yea no kidding.. Good stuff.
One thing I do against the Moon Lord (Which I think more people should do!)
Fly into the air and shoot Arcanum’s straight down at the ground. They’ll start moving slower, but come back up at you. Count how long it takes for the Moon Lord to spawn, have a stream of projectiles floating upwards. The Moon Lord spawns with its eyes open, and if you simply move down as he spawns, his top eye will be hit with each Arcanum projectile and immediately be reduced to a small amount of health or be destroyed outright (Depending on difficulty!) within like, 3~ seconds.
It’s just a random thing I do, but it’s easy and helps getting rid of the laser quick!
Fun fact: the daybreak and phantasm are the only pillar weapons to not have their respective pillar fragment type at the start of their name
i e: *solar* eruption, *nebula* arcanum, *stardust* dragon staff
The reason why the nebula arcanum struggles with moonlord is because when the eye’s close the projectile stops homing in so what you want to do is attack the eyes with the nebula blaze then switch to the arcanum afterwards for the heart.
I feel like the Nebula Arcanam is more effective at for shredding the moon lord's core while the blaze is better for his eyes.
aaaand I still prefer razorblade typhoon
Don’t blame ya, it’s a beast of weapon!
Ong, can’t beat the OGs
Ehhhh, stopped liking it after the nerf.
@@alphoomego for me its still a very good weapon
@@alphoomegoi miss the blue circle spam
I remember back then i used to craft both. Than I started to craft blaze only, for moonlord. Now I'm back to craft both, as razorblade isn't as great as it was pre 1.4.4, so arcanum is great at group control.
I petsonally use the gloves because it auto aims and it has a faster attack spęd to fight the eyes from moonlord
Day 1 of telling you about the spectre armor with hood healing doohickey. If you make three vertical chambers with 4 statues each and a nimbus cloud in 2 of them and a crimson rod cloud in one, you get insane healing. Apparently the raindrops count as mana based damage so it will heal you as long as you use the hood. With the deadly/demonic reforge you can heal anywhere from 1-15 per orb that heals you. You can make a 4th chamber and use the clinger staff but that only will heal you from the initial damage and not the cursed flame debuff.
the nebula arcanum for me is a BEAUTY because of the fact I had a CRIT BUILD meaning it was like having 20 black holes attacking ONE enemy dealing 80-90 damage PER HIT That is so OVERPOWERED
The best way to farm things like golem and planters post pillars. If you spam the arcanum until just before they start despawnjng, spawn in the boss and the massive amount of damage will boss super quickly, only taking a little more power after this in master mode.
Mage has always been my favourite class from even the earlier days. Goated class. Love everything about it.
I love how with both the Nebula and Solar weapons, both their weapons have their individual strengths and weaknesses over each other without one just flat-out being a better version of the other
That's how all the pillar weapons should be imo
Both the Vortex weapons are basically the same in terms of use and functionality, while the Stardust Dragon is just a better version of the Stardust Cell Staff
@@FatMCSteveWell, the vortex weapons are actually decently different; Phantasm does a good bit higher damage due to the extra ghost arrows but requires accuracy while Vortex Beater has homing missiles and can use chloro bullets for stuff like Moon Lord which you really want to be really far away from.
I’ve been a mage main for years. My goto plan has always been to stack the arcanum just before moonlord spawns, you’ll see the healthbar instantly drop by like 10%. Then I just switch to the blaze and make a run for it, so the compliment each other well tbh.
I've found that a really good way to use the nebular arcanum is to fire a ton of them above you where you moonlord main eye will be. When he spawns, they will absolutely destroy the eye because of their ramped up damage. But after that, nebular blaze makes good work of moonlord
Wand of sparking in better 🗣️
As someone who usually chooses melee weapons over anything, i have often found myself using the nebula arcanum as a event destroyer. It's slower movement and insane dps makes it an absolute S-tier weapon for events :)
Before the moonlord spawns, stack up a load of nebula arcanum projectiles in one place and they will all go to one of his weak points and absolutely nuke it at the start of the fight. After that, switch to the blaze for tyhe rest of the fight
I really have to say that you are single favorite creator on the platform. You are the only one I know that keeps me coming back every single time. Seriously I dont think ive missed an upload since i subscribed. Thank you for the consistently high quality and entertaining content ❤
Bro if you do showcase for calamity weapons that will be amazing
So basically the Nebula Blaze is great at single and fast or erratic moving targets and the Nebula Arcanum is great at multi and slow or stationary targets
I, once again, have no idea why I'm commenting.
Love your videos.
0:27 wait what? use the flail for area and close range burst dps and javelin for long range constant dps
I do think every Lunar Pillar weapon needs to at least be good at either Moonlord or the Pillar event itself.
The Arcanum is powerful but its slow projectiles make it extremely hard to use in the fast paced fight of the Moonlord.
Though a high damage, high crowd control weapon do wonders for the Pillars if you need to fight them again. The Razorblade Typhoon, likely the next best option, in my experience does low damage, even if it is mindless. Against the Solar Pillar in particular, low damage, high sustain, can be a death sentence as they charge at you really fast.
"Which weapon is better"
BOTH OF THEM ARE EQUALLY GOOD
Definitely use both they are just so freaking equal
It won't even be a contest for the next two class pillar weapon comparison, Phantasm is just insane, even if the Vortex Beater is just a good weapon that's easier to use, the Phantasm just completely outclasses it if you can aim well.
Also Stardust Dragon and Terraprisma make the stardust cell staff look pathetic
I typically just craft the Nebula Blaze for the damage, and let Razorblade Typhoon handle the rest
I think nebula blaze is still kind of outclassed by stellar tune or razorpine. I'm definitely in Nebula arcanum gang.
These items are related to space. When I think of space i hope there's no among us in it...
If you are willing to get even riskier with your ML assault, you can utterly obliterate both the Nebula Blaze and the Nebula Arcanum in DPS/Clear Time by using a combo of Razorpine and Betsy's Wrath. The Betsy's Curse debuff lasts 10 seconds and reduces the ML's Hands to 0 Defense, the Head to 10 Defense, and the Heart to 30 Defense.
Terraprisma tonite my sockrteez? 👀
The mage class is my favorite of the four, and yes, I admit that at the beginning it can be a little complicated or tedious to use, but it ends up being excellent. Mage post Moon Lord, is a true glass cannon, compensating for his low resistance with abysmal DPS
did you mean "absurd DPS"?
@@sakamotosan1887 Yes, that term is more accurate
Attempt 2 on making sockrteez review the tome of infinite wisdom
i thought this title was sarcasm because ive literally never used the Arcanum. The blaze always just felt so much stronger
If the target is fast, the blaze is better, if theyre slow or theres lots of them, arcanum.
Arcanum is an underrated JEWEL of late hardmode. Several of these can obliterate almost any boss it touches. Moreover, like the Vilethorn, it's another one of those weapons that is great for crowding the space on-screen and coaxing bosses to fly face first into the projectiles.
My sibling in Christ, in Vanilla the only boss left worth a notice is Moon Lord, tf you talking about
(and in modded usually you can get even more busted weapons postML)
Wonder how many videos it'll take for sockrteez to run out of weapons to review.... so when is the zombie review?
The way I see it: Blaze for defense and Arcanum for offense
Honestly the most underrated terraria TH-camr.
Have you reviewed the forbidden armour? I feel like it is quite powerful if used well
"harder ease-of-use"
now i've learned a new expression
the arcanum is so inconsistant and it's really useless , sure it's good against events and slow moving bosses , but the fast bosses start apearing in hardmode , and except for the nebula pillars idk what you're going to use it for since you've got 2 stronger weapons after that even against events
I just finished my first mage playthrough like 2 days ago, I didn't even craft these two to kill the moon lord 😭😭😭
Well issue is that the pillar weapons are basically ONLY useful for ML as many other pre Pillar weapons do crowd controll better (except for solar eruption probably)
And against ML the glove is ALOT better solely because it homes.
Finally, the correct answer truly is, "Why not both?"
Can you make a video about the farm you show at the intro and outro?
I've never seen sockrteez fight the martians in his weapon reviews. Why?
Diamond staff beats blaze and arcanum and no-one can tell me otherwise.
The only thing about Mage is the lack of good accessories. Theres very few accessories foccused on the Mage Class and this is besides the fact you die to everything.
When Zenith review
Red really likes mages
Nebula blaze is the biggest mage damage in the game reach to 2500 damage by crictal strike chance
Than last prism 1200 damage
i look forward to the episode where we just get to see you tear the star cell staff to shreds
Wand of sparking best mage weapon.
I never pick up the Blaze over the Prisma, Nebula Blaze is too expensive and super inconsistent
Day 1 of asking for the shadow flame hex doll
Day three of asking for a pygmy staff both are viable I create both if I mess up first try ml
What are your thoughts about the dao of pow? Is it just a budget version of drippler?
Arcanum is so bad for high speed boss, Blaze for w
But Arcanum best for slow enemy and multiple
Nebula arcanum is literally just hollow purple
Hello sockrteez!
Hello!
I used both against moon lord on getfixedboi. Nebula Blaze is 100% better to use against him over the Arcanum, it's not even close
the nebula arcanum could be the worst weapon in the game for all its worth and it would STILL be my favorite weapon in the entire game, throwing literal black holes at people you dislike or minor inconveniences is a level of spite unmatched by any other.
sorry blaze gang! i cant hear you over the literal universal collapse i yeeted at you! (no hate they're both cool
You ponder the orb or chuck your balls, no in between.
Yeaaaaaaaaah I think I'll use the Razorblade
after forgetting for 6 days, day 2 of asking to review the starwrath
1:22 bro is nearly dead what
that's it! you're definitely a duck! i gotcha!
Hollow purple
Deadly sphere?
I am super biased as the blaze carried the crap out of me during my moon lord fight
I prefer the copper sword
Does anyone have any recomandation for mage wepons for platera , something else other then the harp.
Try using the golden shower (if this you’re on a crimson world) as well as the crystal serpent
I have a question
Why people says that summoner is trash
Mainly cause of low defense and requires you to not get hit atleast a few times
But summoner does have very high dps so it's not really trash if you learn to no hit
YEAHHHH MAGE BEST CLASS LETS GOOOOOO
wait how did he spawn the goblin
As all things should be
You should review the lunar flare
Like, why does the last prism get all the love, the lunar flare deserves the spotlight and is just generally better
Would love to see it
day 2 of asking for a review of the forbidden armor set
Terrasteel already made this video...
Does anyone know what mod he uses for rapid fire at the end of the video?
dragonlens lets you change use-time of weapons
Ty
...And then you get the Last Prism and put both these items in the trash xd
Blaze > arcanum
Day 6 of asking for book of skulls.
Nah Wand of sparkling on top
yo bro can you do a weapon review of the life drain
severly underated weapon, and i wanted the masters opinion and how much you can buff it
(spectre armor with hood)
He already did, it’s one of his most popular videos
As all things should be...
I know I'm not first, but no comments here whilst watching to start
