My friend and I were already up to hardmode level, with weapons like the Excalibur, Hamdrax, etc. But we decided to make some new people. I got to Shadow Armor and he got to Gold Armor. We both got around the max H.P. We thought it might be fun to fight Skeletron. We used some different strategies that I think might be useful to players at or below this level. One of them was building a tiny house with a bed right by the dungeon, so you could spawn at it when you died, and we could just keep fighting. Another strategy we came up with was for one of us to use melee weapons and another to use ranged. Since I had better armor and slightly better H.P. I used melee weapons, which, beware, if you want to try this strategy, makes you the main target for Skeletron, since you have to be right by him.
