Boom stick, has poor accuracy so better for close range but has an really high single target dps. Absolutely shreds bosses while being semi good for regular exploration.

Personally I'd say the Boomstick and the Ball O' Hurt are the best of these. The Vilethorn is nice against worms but that'll be about it. The musket isn't bad, but I'm pretty sure the Boomstick deals more damage per shot.

The Umbrella's primarily useful to prevent fall damage; I don't think anyone ever actually uses it as a weapon. I remember liking the Thorn Chakram back in ye olden days but I don't think I've actively used it in like a decade, and I think they've changed how boomerangs work since then. Can't comment on the Snowball Cannon and Code 1 since I've never used them (although the Snowball Cannon seems like trash to me).

Snowball cannon is trash you are not wrong with that but the other guy said code 1 is the best yoyo i could get at this point of the game so maybe you can try using it in your next playthrough

They’re called reforges. And the boomstick is the best. But the blue moon is good too.

I think you are referring to the yoyo, code 1 as the blue moon cus i dont have that

u/Destroyer163 10h ago

I meant the boll o’ hurt. They look similar to the blue moon

u/SirConscious3216 10h ago

Oh and how many weapons should i carry with me if multiple which one?

u/alvadabra 10h ago

I’m recommend the Ball O’Hurt for close range, the Boomstick or Thorn Chakram for long range, and the Vilethorn for crowds of enemies as well as attacking through blocks.

u/SirConscious3216 10h ago

Could you recommend a good yoyo that i can get fairly easily?

2

u/alvadabra 10h ago

The Code 1 is already the best yoyo you can get right now. You’ll need to defeat a pretty powerful boss or two to get anything stronger.

Personally, I don’t really like using yoyos, as a gun is usually better at long range and a flail is better close up, but I play on a controller, so I’m pretty biased.

u/SirConscious3216 10h ago

The idea of using yoyos as weapons is kinda interesting for me you know and yea i cant imagine liking using yoyos on controller so i get you

I have another question i just got myself the emerald staff and i can buy the minishark should i use them?

u/alvadabra 7h ago

Eh. You already have a few good long range weapons. You could spend all that gold on a lot of other things instead of a Minishark. It ain’t bad, but I don’t really recommend it unless you want to really lean into ranged equipment.

Chakram is great for spamming bouncing ranged attacks. No bullets needed means you can just keep running around and clicking that mouse button to always be attacking things. It's also great for clearing up vines and jungle growth, which will often reveal some of the items you need in the jungle.

I don't use the umbrella much once I get a grappling hook or horse shoes (along with any accessories made with horse shoes) . If I'm falling , I often want to fall fast. With the hook I can grab onto things as I fall. With the horseshoes, I won't care anyway if I fall.

Vilethorn is kind of cool but it attacks too slowly for my tastes. I'd rather just have my preferred melee weapon (usually with some knockback) and a chakram if the enemy is further away than my melee weapon.

Yoyos are fun so it just depends if you want to be a character that uses yoyos or something else.

For what boss? Also the “enchantments” are called reforges
