Plantera grind

[u/One-Laugh-1523]

So, I yesterday went on a grind and I beat all three mecha bosses back to back and almost died to the twins but won. Now I got some good weapons like True Night's Edge, a legendary Chlorophyte Claymore and a True Excalibur. I got turle armor and I'm preparing to build a mini arena for Plantera.

Am I prepared enough or I should grind some more?

Edit: While I was making my arena next to a bulb I accidentally popped it and plantera spawned, an tho I still had chunks of mud in the way I won. I don't remember what weapon I used tho

Do you want to fight with the ranged weapon also or only melee? What are your accessories and the modifiers?

I think I'm alr know what class I'm gonna be, and that's melee (btw it's my first ever playthrough and idk anything else after this boss) also I got legendary on the claymore, turtle armor and my accessories are restoration shield, frostspark boots, devil/demon Wings, blue ballon with a horseshoe and mgiluminiscence. (if I'm using a yoyo I'm changing mgiluminiscence with the yoyo bag, and Im trying to get the magic string for it)

It's been a while since I played and maybe some mechanics were changed, but I think if you have wings, you don't need balloon/ horseshoe. Or additionally, if you build your arena so that the distance between each level of platforms won't hurt you when falling, you won't need horseshoe or wings ( in case you need some other accessories for the battle).

I think you're more than ready with that gear, true night's edge and true Excalibur is what's normally used against Plantera.

Clorophyte armour if you're going melee, or for every class works too with that armour

Potions and a big arena in the underground jungle

I find putting teleporters in the bottom and top or corners of a planters arena with a honey bubble on them very useful for planteras second phase if you can be bothered with wires but it’s worth it by now you should have a fire gauntlet too to keep constant damage on her

[u/One-Laugh-1523 → u/azaza0926]

what's the fire gauntlet? I'm new to the game

[u/SteveisNoob]

I always felt comfortable fighting Plantera with Chlorophyte Armor + Chlorophyte Shotbow + Ichor/Cursed Arrows.

[u/PyxelatorXeroc]

make a OSOGOF tunnel for Plantera if you want to overprepare.

True excalibur is your best option here. True night's edge works for phase 1.

If you're on classic mode, you can completely facetank her quite easily with one of the Chlorophyte swords + a mixed survivability and damage loadout.

[u/Max_Joller]

On low difficulty just True Excalibur should be fine, but don't slack on the arena size

[u/DjEzusSave]

Turtle armor ain't good, it's mostly useful for multi-player. I would rather use the hallowed one or a mix of OOA pieces with the hallowed helmet.

[u/KeesonFrost]

That gear is fine. Your arena matters way more here.
