Weapons matter a lot but the gear is fine. Trying chlorophite bullets w the tactical shotgun.
This should be a borderline trivial fight with this setup. Maybe try using a journey character to learn to dodge in God mode. Get the armour, accessories, and boss summons (for journey world progression) from terria legends. Best way I’ve found.
You can also download a file of a completed journey character from the internet and put that into your characters folder but that’s less safe and requires more technical knowhow (very minimal)
EDIT: the layout confused me since I’m used to PC, so I didn’t realize you already had beetle wings. If you already have beetle wings, bundle of balloons is pretty unnecessary, and I do still think that empress or Betsy wings are better. Replacing balloons with more survivability or extra damage would be better imo
This is expert mode? If you’re on cultist you’ve already beaten Wall of Flesh, in which case you should have 6 accessory slots not 5 if you consumed the demon heart that WoF drops.
From the [wiki](https://terraria.wiki.gg/wiki/Accessories):
“In Classic Mode worlds, the player is limited to five accessory slots. In Expert Mode, a sixth slot is obtainable by consuming a Demon Heart. Ultimately, Master Mode includes a sixth slot by default which, when combined with a Demon Heart, provides seven slots.”
In terms of your accessories themselves, they’re definitely fine but there are a lot of improvements if you feel like it’s worth grinding for them. Since you’re ranger, these suggestions are keeping that in mind:
– replace shield of Cthulhu with master ninja gear (still allows for a dash, but includes a dodge chance for extra survivability)
– replace bundle of horseshoe balloons with Betsy’s wings or empress wings for better aerial combat (unless you like to use mounts, in which case balloons are usually better)
– charm of myths is very solid. Other options for survivability are worm scarf for flat damage reduction or Star veil for longer invincibility frames
– boots are fine, ranger emblem is fine
There’s also some wiggle room depending on how your play style is. If you’re wanting to go for more survivability, which I assume is true based on your current loadout, the above suggestions are good for that. If you’re wanting to go for more glass cannon, you can replace some of the survivability stuff with something like the sniper scope or a destroyer emblem
Good luck!
Switch the shield for master ninja gear if you want a dash and a dodge or the soaring insignia for infinite flight. Get the recon scope instead of the ranger emblem. Use the destroyer emblem instead of the ballon’s since you already have wings.
If you’re confident in your aim, use the xenopopper with crystal bullets instead of the megashark. But if not, then use the chain gun with chlorophyte bullets for the most consistent damage.
If you want, you can use the adamantite helmet instead of the shroomite one, since it actually buffs your dps more.
Reforge everything to Warding for defense or Menacing for damage. Use potions and arena buff items.
The balloons aren’t really needed. You could replace them with more damage like an avengers mark or master ninja gear for more survivability. Don’t forget to make an arena with all the buffs💚
Megashark is super outdated atp, use snowman cannon, chain gun with chlorophyte bullets, or eventide/tsunami
Some accessory improvements (also applies for moon lord):
You dont really need the jumps, wings handicap horisontal speed boost. Ditch them
Replace boots with soaring insignia, and get duke/empress/betsy wings
Replace SoC with master ninja gear
In the freed up slot put any accessory for damage/survivability depending on how often you get hit
You can uprgade the emblem all the way to a sniper scope
But besides the outdated wespon and some accessory nitpicks, you should be fine
