Best armor sets for tier 3

I added that the Tier 1 Tavernkeep armors are the best armor for tackling tier 3 (until you can afford the tier 2 armors).

I wanted to add some context: I've used this strategy before even on Legendary Getfixedboi mode, and it always works well. But I did some testing to try it out.

With Frost Hydra Staff, Xeno Staff, Explosive Trap Staff and Eventide, I tried Huntress armor. Accessories were papyrus scarab and necromantic scroll plus ranger emblem, magic quiver, etc. With this setup, I killed Betsy by 7:06 from the time I started, never dying once. DPS reached 7000+ versus ogres in Round 6. I never saw the enemies approach even once, killing them all off-screen.

With the same setup but Shroomite armor with bow helmet, I stayed in stealth at the center for rounds 1-6. The enemies frequently got close to the gem. Betsy killed me twice, and I died around 8:32 from the time I started.

The tavernkeep armors are definitely the best due to their summon damage bonuses and sentry boosts. The only one that comes close is Spooky Armor due to summon damage boosts.

Actuator Drop strategy issues

I attempted the Actuator Drop strategy recently and found that the Dark Mage would begin attacking from over 60 tiles away, offscreen. Not sure if this was due to being on the getfixedboi seed or some other special circumstance, or if that particular facet of the strategy is just outdated somehow. -Jatopian (talk|contribs) 00:29, 12 January 2024 (UTC)
