Can you Beat MASTER MODE Terraria with only Pre-Hardmode Gear?

Today I try and beat Terraria Master Mode, but with only Pre-hardmode gear. For the duration of this challenge all of my weapons, armor, accessories, buffs, and mounts must be obtainable before killing wall of flesh. Let's see if we can do it!

Gungnir has the uncanny ability to always upload the moment I think to myself, "Man, Gungnir hasn't uploaded in a while. Starting to miss him".

Gungnir: "You haven't ever seen a two hour long Moon Lord fight"

Me, who has watched somebody kill him with the lawnmower: "Those are rookie numbers!"

[alexanderelderhorst]

"You haven't seen a 2 and a half hour moonlord fight"
And you haven't seen an 89 hour lawnmower fight good sir

I think minions could have cut the moon lord fight time down significantly. Wand of Sparking's 1 projectile playthrough proved that minions completely override projectile spots just like beach balls, so you could summon like 995 balls and a few fire imps for constant, >100 dps in addition to volcano.

That's the most peaceful looking moonlord fight I've ever seen, and my favorite part was when you reforging your weapon and moonlord just hanging in the background 😂

[Corundrom]

Space suit Grey Zapinator is also a viable alternative for some of the bosses

[ComFurt]

Can't even be mad about the moon lord cheese, the mental fortitude needed to keep fighting him for nearly 2.5 hours is far more impressive than the skill of beating him without it

Even if conveyors were banned, one could make a world-spanning HOIK setup for the stars. It's a bit more awkward now than it used to be because stars don't automatically get caught when landing on the HOIK teeth anymore, but this is easily fixed with actuators and a timer (or one can use a more intelligent clock which alternates between a short and a long delay). Conveyers are certainly much nicer to span the world with than sloped blocks, though, so I agree with their use.

The amount of streams it took for this challenge just to end up a 17min video made me realize how much time and effort it takes. Come help us support him in twitch guys!

Additionally with any of the hardmode potions, you can toss them in shimmer to get the ingredients and then with the alchemy table slowly craft an unlimited supply

[Rivtecs]

ngl the moonlord just chilling as you restock, reforge and get back to fighting his as he just watches is pretty funny

[eientakara]

He descends when humanity's future is at it's bleakest.

Now you just have to beat calamity with only pre-moonlord gear!

[beans]

Love how instead of dragging the video on an extra 20 minutes, you just skipped pre hard mode and got right into hardmode

[funky]

Still had more defense than endgame summoner 💀

[thermophile]

Good to see someone admit that Golem is difficult in the provided arena, despite being easy out of it.

[acefischer]

Cant wait for pre hard mode with only hard mode weapons!

[Partiallyinteresting]

I’m pretty sure you can spawn a minion, then fill the remaining projectile spots with beach balls. This method would give a bit of extra damage during the moon lord fight

[NickAndriadze]

That last fight, whilst conceptually underwhelming and kind of ''taking the coward's way out, '' was still a fairly tense and difficult challenge of endurance. Also lucky you that Beach Balls are a pre-hardmode item...
