House Defense

Defending your house is important, your NPC's rely on your technuiques, and so do you. I have a few techniques for different occasions, such as blood moons, goblin armies, and just cool stuff to kill enemies with.

BLOOD MOONS
Shown to the right, there is a torch behind the door in the house. This is to prevent the zombies from opening the doors. You can still open it, but you hve to face away from it when entering towards the torch.

GOBLIN ARMIES
The goblins will try to raid your spawn or bed*. So try to stay away from your spawn and stay nearest to the direction they come from so there is less casualties.

A good technique for taking the least damage and keeping your NPC's the safest, is make a huge skybridge as long as possible so they spawn on it. If it is flat you can kill them easily and jump oven the others. The only flaw with any of these is that the mages can spawn anywhere they like, so they can pwn your NPC's if you're near them.

Just a normal gloomy night
A good way of taking out Zombies/slimes/demon eyes on a normal day is to make a sniper nest shown on the picture above for blood moons. This allows you to shoot straight, down, and up at your enemies.

Good luck kepping you and your NPC's safe!
