Build a runway, it'll take a while, but the run away (no jumps, nothing in-between) will take about 1,000 blocks. I used ash as my runway because it was easily farmed and I didn't have to go anywhere. But the other replies are right. Use ranged weapons. Save up and buy a Minishark and then create meteor shots from the balls needed.
