The initial OOA grind, there's a fairly well known easy way to get extra sentries. Ethirian Mana is a physical item in your inventory, and it can freely be placed into chests like any other item. Once the event finishes, any Mana in your inventory is removed. If you open a chest, any Mana in it is also removed once you open it. The update is only done once you open the chest. Nothing stops you from starting an event, storing Mana, losing, then starting a new event before opening the chest. I usually use this when trying to kill Betsy just so I can leave the crystal alone and focus the boss, but this works at any progression level
It kinda sucks that the only 2 great sentries are from after moonlord is killed. Hopfully in 1.4.5 sentries will get their final rework to make the sub-class viable.
It isn't meant to be a subclass, you are meant to use sentries along with any of the main classes. If sentries were buffed a lot, OOA armor would be insanely OP and even just playing a base summoner with increased sentries would be really strong.
Tips for OOA: you can open doors. Such as trapdoors. This allows you to keep all ground bound enemies underground and useless, or you can use a hoik to disable them as well.
I thought OOA had a lot of methods to make that kind of stuff useless? >.> Like, ghosting through walls and stuff, useless. Also, pretty sure trapdoors *don't* work, but I may be thinking of platforms... I tried but spent thirty minutes trying to get the thing to work till I realized *two platforms on my hellevator* were in the way. x)
He looks insane, but this comes from the guy who beat day time empress of light as a summoner pre-moonlord (not that big of a deal tho) , and the guy who beat terraria with only traps. Edit: You people are STUPID! You gave me what i wanted. You responded to me. Now i am at the top. This shows how easily you can be manipulated on the internet.

@@JigglesMcRibs I always rush golem after plantera because the tier 3 explosive trap helps so much in the dungeon, and if you use the armour set you can oil enemies which is also really slept on.
Right? I couldn't believe the amount of stuff this guy was willing to try without ever considering the Explosives. They can solo the first two Old One's Army events if you just stick a bunch of them in a row by the portals, even killing Wyverns before they can fly high enough.
Bro could be putting all that mana to use too by repeatedly summoning the explosive trap over n over on top of an enemy, bypassing its attack cooldown and bursting it down. Its high dmg, bursting with your mana, with oil later on makes it a damn terror. When i hit hard mode n need better gear I go to the spiders nest right away n burst em down with explosive trap. What would take forever to kill is now a pile of meat in seconds.
@@RoxxyVillguarde they patched the instant attack from OOA sentries. The reason why people don't use Explosive Trap sentries are due to long lasting misinfo it been cursed with for over half a decade, which is a shame and annoying because it has the strength equal to lightning aura but with little to no setup requirement. The fact it got buffed despite Ballista and Flameburst are 2 that was needed the buff the most is outright a crime, thanks god Re-Logic awared of it later, still left Flameburst behind though.
Tell me why you are the only UA-camr that makes these Terraria challenge videos and I can actually sit through the entire video. I've seen similar videos and dunno why these are different, but definitely keep going and keep more coming!
pls try @Wand of sparkling. He is like this as well only without speaking, just text. But if you want something relaxing and mute, as well as entertaining, try him. I love him.
I’m making a Chanel that dose things like these I actually thought of doing this same idea and might still. So I’m been bing watching theese kind of videos to see how they do things
Btw the explosive trap is insane when well used against the old one's army and can be enough until betsy , it can even kill the flying ennemies when placed on the crystal , it is easily the 2nd or 3rd best old one's army weapon , other than that i wish terraria made sentries more viable , rather than just something you place down because it deals a tiny bit more dmg and leave it
Explosive Trap was always the strongest OOA sentry for event since it first introduced, and the fact that 1.4.1 buff it from community request and not buff the others still haunted me for years. What can I say, Ballista's misinfomation at it finest The fact that almost nobody care about OOA is the reason why the misinfo last for half decade. They finally buff Ballista at the end.
If you struggle with OOA you could do the distraction method to save up mana and store it in a chest next to the crystal. As long as the chest in NEVER opened outside of the event that mana will be stored and not disappear. Just lose the game several times and BOOM! you save enough to spawn multiple ballisters and wipe them.
Terraria is packed full of stuff like this that feels like a glitch that relogic only hasn't patched out because they feel like players have earned a little treat. Kind of like how they officially accepted the hoik as a feature, not a bug.
@@Ayjay_Puffball I kinda get that, but I don't get why... Did he like Planter's colour palette? Was it her "personality"? I know I'm taking it too seriously, but there's always a reason and it being the only joke of that kind in the video, it bothered me, but I can just forget it. It's not that important.
he was obviously talking about the famous entity known as "hrhhhh " which appears when a game is boring and tries to cure the boredom by doing various things such as adding screen effects (i have to say this comment is a joke because some people can never tell for some reason)
Explosive Traps and Flameburst sentries are better than the Ballistae IMO because of their higher DPS. Lightning Auras are good with the specialized armor. You actually can teleport your way out of the Destroyer fight. Put 2 teleporters at the same height far away from each other and put Explosive Traps between them. Destroyer doesn't despawn due to distance, so you can teleport to keep him entirely offscreen and on top of your infinitely piercing Explosive Traps.
Before OOA difficulty got drastically tuned down. Explosive Trap was the only sentry that allow you to die twice without instantly lost the OOA event in Master Mode even during it pre-buff, twice, and can guard Betsy for quite a long duration compared to all other OOA sentry.
This guy deserves more than his subs because i mean he has like 60+ hours on every single world he does and has spent to much time and his life on this game, mad respect.
You can watch a youtuber called sorbet cafe who killed moonlord using a copper shortsword, flare gun, and lawn mower. When the leeches spawn you can teleport to the other side of the world, unlike moonlord who instantly teleports to you the leeches despawn allowing you to moon lord to stop healing.
I think sentries-only is one of the most painful weapon type-only runs you can do in this game. Shortswords-only, repeaters-only, and launchers-only are the only ones I'd say are worse.
If you actually do this with only century damage that’s extremely impressive. When other UA-camrs do these challenges they often bend the rules when they don’t have to but only a minute into the video I can tell you’re serious and I love it, I’ll sub and I know you’ll be big soon keep it up man
The worst part? They're still going. The amount of people that can't be bothered to learn the basic strategy of "stack Explosive Traps on one portal, put new ones in a line towards the crystal, sit near the crystal and focus the other lane with your main crowd control weapon while keeping an eye on the minimap for any stray Wyvern/Lightning Bug that survived in the other lane" is baffling.

Keep up the great terraria master series :) Plenty of builds still to do, I love watching em' and quening them all up when i hit the sack after a long day of work!
A better thing to do instead of trashing the copper short sword is just chucking it at the first slime you see to get a free Npc for lower enemy spawns by your base for the first night
man I dont watch long format gaming videos a lot but this was so entertaining to watch. Excellent video. Ive seen other challenge videos from terraria from other people and the werent as engaging
14:13 I've been playing master mode and everything seed for quite some time, and FINALLY I saw someone using rails as well to create a hell bridge! xD I find them superior, both resource and speed wise (dude, 1 iron bar for 50 rails!? and you can place them in zigzag too!) As a rail hell bridger, I approve of this xD
There are a lot of ways to make this run easier. (I'm watching this video as of writing this, will edit as I progress) - OOA: you can use platform hoik to make all ground enemies harmless, allowing you to clear the event more easily. - All nighttime bosses: you can play the dontdigup seed to remove ALL time limits from bossfights (except deerclops and wall of flesh) - Twins: for retinazor second phase, just box yourself in and you're completely safe from all attacks. It doesn't shoot through walls and it never dashes at you. - Destroyer does not despawn when you are far away. You can use the magic conch to teleport to the other ocean and heal up (or use other means of long range teleporting) - Generally for low damafe weapons, going for tankier builds is better. If you can survive indefinitely then it doesn't matter which weapon you use. There's also the ultimate uber cheese method of saving up eternia crystals and then spawning hundreds of sentries at once while the event is active but you wouldn't have an interesting video that way lol
For the Old Ones Army, you could've put the 10 starting mana into a chest and not to open it when not fighting the army. That way, you get as much mana as you want and place like 100 sentries at the start of the event.
absolutely banger video. super engaging and, unlike some terraria challenge vids i watch, it actually seemed like you had creative power and difficulty when working on this! great work! :)
you know, there's another cheese for the old ones army is making a wall of hoiks that would repel them back and using block swap, you swap the solid hoiks into platforms. it would still repel them back but their ai think it isnt a solid block so their gimmick where they can go thru blocks doesn't work. they cant reach the crystal except for the flying enemies and skeletons that the dark mage spawns.
SO....fun fact...My first time master mode was with sentries summons... i THOUGHT it was just as viable as any other class, and i just thought master mode was absurdly hard not that my class was...not the best of course i used standard summons as well but by Hard mode i was building for sentries, mostly through Dungeon defenders event, THAT BEING SAID...the sentry the moon lord can drop actually is so fucking fun and good to use, it legit feels as strong as zenith with all the extra sentry slots
ok so hear me out for the destroyer: he can only go up a certain number of blocks, so if there is a block where you are that is that far up, he will go up in a straight line. Put a ballista on the bottom and you got it. I only suggest dubious method like this because it's better than invincibility chamber
Ironically, the one sentry he deemed useless - Explosive Traps - nearly soloes the first two OOA tiers and are great against swarms and segmented enemies; literally just bunch 3-4 of them on top of the portals and put subsequent ones in a tight line towards the crystal: the aoe is enough to shred everything but the tankiest OOA enemies, and they can even kill Etherian Wyverns before they fly out of range. Heck, you can even defeat goblins and pirates by staying inside your house, either blocking the doors from the outside or digging a 2x2 pit in fron of them so that enemies can't open them and just put Explosive Traps right in front of them: the enemies will get stuck on the walled off doors permanently, since the damage from the sentries keeps resetting their pathfinding, and you only have to worry about the occasional Goblin Sorcerer and Pirate's Curse respectively.
This is something I've seen a good bit lately. People trying to fight fishron with pixie wings and getting cooked. The fights all about maneuverability. You gotta upgrade them boize.
There is a placeable version of a snowball cannon that looks like a sentry and shoots independently without aiming, but it’s no class so I don’t know if it would fit the criteria. Its dropped by snow flinxes
I would have loved to see the final in-game time. Obviously wouldn’t include other game practice or brainstorming sessions, but it would be fun to see. Nicely done!
i might be very late, but fun fact, the destroyer is one of the few bosses that doesnt despawn when you travel too far, so you can travel across the world with the destroyer chasing you through sentries and you can be far enough in a box that it will take a bit for the probes to get to you
this is extremely impressive. as someone doing sentry summoner right now (basically this but i have whips, SO much easier) on expert mode, you've gone through much farther lengths through everything, in master mode too! here's something VERY key about the frost hydra sentries though: their invincibility frames SUCK. if you'll notice at 38:04 , not every projectile hits. the projectiles interrupt each other because they dont have local immunity frames (like the ballista staff, for example, does), so using them together like that can hurt dps at extreme levels. hope that explains that! i did love how you named each sentry though. very fun touch
I never thought this challenge was actually possible and this comes from someone who beat master mode legendary world as summoner huge respect you trully made terraria history
When he said the Mine staff is useless my heart dropped. He had so much trouble with Destroyer but he doesnt realize that when the mines drop, they hit EVERY SEGMENT on the way down.
explosive trap is VERY strong*(in the correct setup) at least for the purpose of old ones army and for farming normal enemies - it's pretty much the best sentry for that. it has more DPS than any other sentry of the same stage, and all you need is for enemies to be inside the blast radius - which you know they will be in the cases I stated. Flameburst is better than ballista in many cases, one of which is the queen bee fight where you need to deal with bee clusters and hit the queen bee - preferably at the same time. Ballista has high alpha strike, but lower recharge and have projectile gravity(those weaknesses were reduced in recent updates but still exist) which isn't saying it's bad but saying you need to work around it just as much as you do with other weapons. Ballista WITH the armor bonus it's outright better than every other sentry in the same category, but that can be said for every sentry armor with their respective sentry under their preferred use case. (might be wrong, but) IIRC flameburst still have instant recharge on summon(unlike ballista) making it the better for sentry spam scenarios like sentry only WoF.
You know, as someone who plays mostly modded I can't believe that the devs thought it was a good idea to let enemies spawn during boss fights. Its not something I really think about because boss zen is a thing, but its actually kind of wild how many times you had an enemy mess up one of your fights.
I’m surprised you never used the chest strat. Basically, if you put etherian mana in a chest before the old ones army ends, it stays there and can be used during the next event.
You should have used some flamebursts for destroyer, they would have been able to hit the probes, and if you put ballistas at the bottom the would have dealt the damage, but it was really creative the way that you actually beat destroyer.
This is both an excellent presentation and a good challenge, awesome :) If you don't mind a bit of cheese: You can set one of your teleporters just outside of the Ocean Biome - because as soon as you get outside of the Ocean Biom while Duke is spawned, he enrages and ignores all of his other stuff, just dashing at you. Then you teleport back into the Ocean Biome with the other teleporter, effectively resetting his AI. He'll never spawn tornadoes this way
I love this video, I can't stop watching it so much that I'm going to do the challenge, your character became the sentinel defender and saved them all, good video
Honestly really really impressive, you could have taken the dmg and incredible speed gained from the shrimpy truffle mount to make the moonlord easier but you found a cooler solution

- Generally for low damafe weapons, going for tankier builds is better. If you can survive indefinitely then it doesn't matter which weapon you use.
There's also the ultimate uber cheese method of saving up eternia crystals and then spawning hundreds of sentries at once while the event is active but you wouldn't have an interesting video that way lol
3 of the 5 points you mentioned are cheeses lol
For the old ones army, there's a trick with platforms that prevents the ground enemies from passing through.
Why didnt you get a rod of discord eariler?
The scene he said this is only the begining got me shocked
Terraria but it a tower defence game
Eternia event armor is lowkey fantastic though. The Valhalla Knights set and the flying dragon are fun and just useful.
Fresh from the oven
Yes
For the Old Ones Army, you could've put the 10 starting mana into a chest and not to open it when not fighting the army. That way, you get as much mana as you want and place like 100 sentries at the start of the event.
I love little tricks like this, got any more? :)
absolutely banger video. super engaging and, unlike some terraria challenge vids i watch, it actually seemed like you had creative power and difficulty when working on this! great work! :)
You are truly a god. I tried this challenge 5-6 months ago, but i stopped on Wall of Flesh. Now I`m motivated to repeat your feat
Nice strat making Skeletron Prime fly along the ground where the baby spiders could reach him!
I hope they add more sentry that can homing.
Sentry ironically satisfying class, lmao.
you know, there's another cheese for the old ones army is making a wall of hoiks that would repel them back and using block swap, you swap the solid hoiks into platforms. it would still repel them back but their ai think it isnt a solid block so their gimmick where they can go thru blocks doesn't work. they cant reach the crystal except for the flying enemies and skeletons that the dark mage spawns.
Why bother doing a challenge if you'll just completely cheese your biggest source of weapons then?
@@darkfiredragon3410 you say this like he didnt cheese most bosses
By far my favorite Terraria UA-camr. I can rewatch videos and they'll still make my day like the first time I watched them.
Imagine a bloons td 6 crossover where you can summon monkey towers as sentries
26:50 genuinely worst golem temple spawn i've ever seen
İncredible video dude I thought this was impossible (also W editing)
Can you please continue making more of these videos because they are so enjoyable. I would love to see more
SO....fun fact...My first time master mode was with sentries summons... i THOUGHT it was just as viable as any other class, and i just thought master mode was absurdly hard not that my class was...not the best of course i used standard summons as well but by Hard mode i was building for sentries, mostly through Dungeon defenders event, THAT BEING SAID...the sentry the moon lord can drop actually is so fucking fun and good to use, it legit feels as strong as zenith with all the extra sentry slots
I put down my ball list tea. I could drink no more. The scent of balls was too great for me. Be warned of ball list tea.
ok so hear me out for the destroyer: he can only go up a certain number of blocks, so if there is a block where you are that is that far up, he will go up in a straight line. Put a ballista on the bottom and you got it. I only suggest dubious method like this because it's better than invincibility chamber
Ballista rod and Flame burst rod might give you a bit more chances at first
Ironically, the one sentry he deemed useless - Explosive Traps - nearly soloes the first two OOA tiers and are great against swarms and segmented enemies; literally just bunch 3-4 of them on top of the portals and put subsequent ones in a tight line towards the crystal: the aoe is enough to shred everything but the tankiest OOA enemies, and they can even kill Etherian Wyverns before they fly out of range.
Heck, you can even defeat goblins and pirates by staying inside your house, either blocking the doors from the outside or digging a 2x2 pit in fron of them so that enemies can't open them and just put Explosive Traps right in front of them: the enemies will get stuck on the walled off doors permanently, since the damage from the sentries keeps resetting their pathfinding, and you only have to worry about the occasional Goblin Sorcerer and Pirate's Curse respectively.
24:18 what in the sweet potato pie
This is something I've seen a good bit lately. People trying to fight fishron with pixie wings and getting cooked. The fights all about maneuverability. You gotta upgrade them boize.
fr this dude used pixie and leaf wings with no boots throughout the whole of hard mode 😭😭
Why is he the only person doing this . How come no one else does real challenges like him
Huge respect for staying with the spirit of the run
This was 40 Minutes???? Damn that flew by like it was nothing I was so invested!
There is a placeable version of a snowball cannon that looks like a sentry and shoots independently without aiming, but it’s no class so I don’t know if it would fit the criteria. Its dropped by snow flinxes
Wow, did I really watch this for 40 minutes? amazing content man, good job!
Hint for the Old One's Army. Place penetrating sentries (ie ballista) BEHIND the portals so they don't waste so much DPS shooting at the sky...
terraria has to have the most dedicated and fuckin insane community. the challenges are unbelieveable. good job
I would have loved to see the final in-game time. Obviously wouldn’t include other game practice or brainstorming sessions, but it would be fun to see. Nicely done!
the fact that you mined out a pit under the moon lord arena before upgrading your wings is astounding
fr lmao this dude is lowk stupid
I've done this playthrough before. Honestly, even on master mode this was one of the most fun playthroughs I've done ever
i might be very late, but fun fact, the destroyer is one of the few bosses that doesnt despawn when you travel too far, so you can travel across the world with the destroyer chasing you through sentries and you can be far enough in a box that it will take a bit for the probes to get to you
this is extremely impressive. as someone doing sentry summoner right now (basically this but i have whips, SO much easier) on expert mode, you've gone through much farther lengths through everything, in master mode too! here's something VERY key about the frost hydra sentries though: their invincibility frames SUCK.
if you'll notice at 38:04 , not every projectile hits. the projectiles interrupt each other because they dont have local immunity frames (like the ballista staff, for example, does), so using them together like that can hurt dps at extreme levels. hope that explains that! i did love how you named each sentry though. very fun touch
I never thought this challenge was actually possible and this comes from someone who beat master mode legendary world as summoner huge respect you trully made terraria history
Good job man. I would not have the patience for that so props to you
When he said the Mine staff is useless my heart dropped. He had so much trouble with Destroyer but he doesnt realize that when the mines drop, they hit EVERY SEGMENT on the way down.
explosive trap is VERY strong*(in the correct setup)
at least for the purpose of old ones army and for farming normal enemies - it's pretty much the best sentry for that.
it has more DPS than any other sentry of the same stage, and all you need is for enemies to be inside the blast radius - which you know they will be in the cases I stated.
Flameburst is better than ballista in many cases, one of which is the queen bee fight where you need to deal with bee clusters and hit the queen bee - preferably at the same time.
Ballista has high alpha strike, but lower recharge and have projectile gravity(those weaknesses were reduced in recent updates but still exist) which isn't saying it's bad but saying you need to work around it just as much as you do with other weapons.
Ballista WITH the armor bonus it's outright better than every other sentry in the same category, but that can be said for every sentry armor with their respective sentry under their preferred use case.
(might be wrong, but)
IIRC flameburst still have instant recharge on summon(unlike ballista) making it the better for sentry spam scenarios like sentry only WoF.
Bro dedication is truly amazing. If I did this challenge, I'd probably go crazy fighting the deerclops
Man as someone who always cheeses the old ones army it was so painful to listen to the old ones segmwnt
Kinda tired of terraria challenges already, but this was genuinely very fun to watch!! Great video!! 😄
You know, as someone who plays mostly modded I can't believe that the devs thought it was a good idea to let enemies spawn during boss fights. Its not something I really think about because boss zen is a thing, but its actually kind of wild how many times you had an enemy mess up one of your fights.
i love your videos 😼😼 i hope you never quit, you deserve WAY more subs. thank you
Now its time for you to beat Terraria using only NPCS to attack
You can actually run away from the moon lord leech thing, but it takes a second for it to go away
I’m surprised you never used the chest strat. Basically, if you put etherian mana in a chest before the old ones army ends, it stays there and can be used during the next event.
They patched it iirc
You should have used some flamebursts for destroyer, they would have been able to hit the probes, and if you put ballistas at the bottom the would have dealt the damage, but it was really creative the way that you actually beat destroyer.
This is both an excellent presentation and a good challenge, awesome :)
If you don't mind a bit of cheese: You can set one of your teleporters just outside of the Ocean Biome - because as soon as you get outside of the Ocean Biom while Duke is spawned, he enrages and ignores all of his other stuff, just dashing at you. Then you teleport back into the Ocean Biome with the other teleporter, effectively resetting his AI. He'll never spawn tornadoes this way
I love this video, I can't stop watching it so much that I'm going to do the challenge, your character became the sentinel defender and saved them all, good video
For spiders, build a wall. They can walk on walls and will be able to attack flying enemies :D
Honestly really really impressive, you could have taken the dmg and incredible speed gained from the shrimpy truffle mount to make the moonlord easier but you found a cooler solution
HEY HEY HEY you dashed with the shield, that's considered melee damage and killed the eaters in plantera.
But I'll let it pass, you are still, goated.
Not to mention the pickaxe damage to summon EoL
