User blog comment:THATterrariaGUY/am i strong enough for the eye of cthulu?/@comment-88.113.118.86-20120711145513

That is more than enough for the most of veterans out there.

Since it seems this is your first time taking on Cthulu, I may suggest you some of these things:

1. Do not use melee. Cthulu flies around you, and it is hard to hit it with melee weapons. Ranged weapons are the way to go.

2. Have Fire Arrows. Cthulu can be set on fire with these arrows, dealing more damage to it over time. To make these, you need normal arrows, and torches.

3. Make yourself an sufficient arena. This can be anything from a elaborate multiplatformed box, to a big line of wooden platforms to run on. Fighting on natural ground may hinder your movements, making you prone to hits.

Hope this helps you kill the Eye. :)
