Terraria with 1HP is insane...

I've been wanting to hone my Terraria skills for a while now and playing through Master Mode with just 1 HP seems like the perfect way to do so! With just 1 health point, I have to no-hit every single boss to complete this challenge!

Predictions: Hallowed armor is best and final armor for this challenge Empress of light will be fought in the day because there is no difference between day and night fight

[@GrammarNaziAUS]

There actually is. Daytime EoL's instant-kill bypasses Hallowed armor's dodge (in point of fact, all instant-kill attacks now bypass dodge in 1.4.4). This makes Nighttime EoL a fair bit easier, as you can dodge her.

Applying a visible debuff like “On Fire!” also gives away BoC’s position. Dashing with SoC is good because if you dash away, you get further away, and if you dash at him, you bounce back and deal damage.

Bone javelins are really good at this because they visibly stick to the boss

Thank you for playing this on a softcore character. Every time I've seen any KZbinr or streamer do a 1hp challenge, they always do it with a hardcore character. While that seems like it would be harder, I don't think it's the proper way to play because they never get very far in the progression. With softcore you actually have a shot at getting to Moon Lord, and the late game antics are where this challenge is at its most fun.

[@CatLover-lk9gz]

As presumably already mentioned. There ARE still "armor" options. Any armor that has a movement-esque option, or stat buffs, Maybe one of those armors that have a chance of "bypassing" damage, such as I think ninja armor, or some Old Ones Army, armor set provided with a dodge chance bonus.
