note: i usually find a bunch of cobwebs while i do this

what i usually do is get iron armor and bow with some flaming arrows and beat the eye of chtulu then i get a demon bow and race to the dungion (for some reason i always find it) and beat skeletron then quickly get whatever i can in the chests and when i get home (usually from dieng from some random hole a skeleton knocks me into and i die from fall damage) and craft an entire necro suit. this is a great way to begin the game and ranged is usually best early game but then i switch to melee in hardmode then i get to a balance around the mechanical bosses

at that point i use cursed bullets/unreal megashark as the main weapon vs tough enemys

cursed flames to weaken every enemy

melee against normal/weak enemys
