Guide talk:Plantera strategies

Get vampire knives, is pretty much an end-all strategy if you're feeling lazy.

RE: Magnet Sphere.
It may be confusing to players to include Magnet Sphere in the list of weapons to use against Plantera, as it is only available after killing Plantera.

Unhelpful strategies
At least half of the strategies included here include armour or weapons you receive after killing plantera. Horseman's blade, spectral armour, magnet sphere... It's no problem at all for people with these items to just wipe plantera. It's the people who need to fight it for the first time, without any of the post-plantera items, who need help.
 * I have to agree (being partially responsible for such "help" myself), a guide like this is likely both confusing and annoying for new players. I've attempted to clean up the page now, trimming down and moving info of post-Plantera strategies to a bottom section for those who are interested in farming.

 * while checking out the builds ( my younger brother is preparing for his first mech boss so i'm refreshing my memory on what things shoud help him that he can actually access pre-plantera ) i noticed that you forgot to fix shroomite armor from list so i updated that part of guide --Crackmore (talk) 13:47, 25 May 2014 (UTC)

draw attention to run-on sentence
This line is confusingly worded, badly punctuated, or both: "You should set a spawn point near where the Plantera Boss fight you would need to use a hammer and from the surface dig the walls until you get to where the Plantera's Bulb is at or where you intend to fight Plantera and it will make it so the boss won't despawn."
 * Unfortunately, because of the nature of guides, they're often poorly written and full of extraneous and oddly formatted information. I started to re-edit it, but after figuring out what it was trying to say, I realized that it wasn't a valid strategy. As such it's been removed. Gearzein (talk) 17:11, 29 January 2015 (UTC)
