Guide:Ocram strategies

Ocram is the second endgame boss on the, alongside Duke Fishron. Ocram spawns Servants of Ocram throughout the entire battle. They can be deadly if not killed right away. It has two stages like the Eye of Cthulhu, but shoots barrages of lasers in the latter phase.

The Battle
Ocram's hit box is not very accurate to his sprite, so some attacks will fail to damage him. To reduce the chance of missing, aim for his eyes.

Ocram's second form is extremely dangerous; he'll fire waves of Demon Scythe spells. If you get caught in one of these waves, you will lose most of your health, so make sure to avoid them. He will also fire large laser barrages during this phase, so you will want to have mobility accessories equipped, such as the Lightning Boots.

Arena Preparation

 * It is advised to have a long, straight platform, with a small wall to block attacks similar to a platform used to fight the Wall of Flesh or The Twins.

Weapons
For Melee users:


 * Shoot him with a sword with ranged capabilities, such as the Terra Blade, True Night's Edge, True Excalibur, or Beam Sword.
 * If you have not yet acquired any of the aforementioned swords, an easier sword to obtain is the Chlorophyte Claymore; it is not very useful at close range, but it fires orbs which deal hefty amounts of damage.
 * Boomerangs such as Light Discs or Bananarangs will work well. The Possessed Hatchet will do large amounts of damage with a good modifier.
 * If you have managed to get The Horseman's Blade, you can easily kill the Servants with it, and the summoned pumpkins can deal big damage to Ocram.
 * If you can get it, use Turtle armor. Otherwise, use the melee sets of Chlorophyte armor or Hallowed armor.
 * If you have killed him multiple times before and are planning to farm him, Dragon armor is quite effective.
 * You can also use Flasks; the most useful are Flasks of Ichor as they reduce Ocram's defense, and Flasks of Cursed Flames for extra damage.
 * If you are looking for a profit, you can use a Flask of Gold, although this flask provides no offensive bonuses.
 * Vampire Knives are very useful as a secondary weapon due to their life stealing ability.

For Ranged users:


 * The ranged set of is recommended. If you can't get it, use  instead.  outclasses both of these, but is much harder to obtain and is only accessible after Plantera.
 * A or  as well as  with or Chlorophyte Bullets can work well, if you make sure to aim for his eyes.
 * Alternatively, you could use the Flamethrower if you've beaten Skeletron Prime. If you are concerned about your ammo, it would be useful to create a gel farm with a Slime Statue.
 * The  is quite effective is your arena is closed-in, as the arrows bounce off of walls and deal large amounts of damage.
 * On the 3DS version, using Heart Arrows with a bow that uses more than one arrow such as the Tsunami can stun Ocram, preventing it from shooting its lasers or spawning Servants of Ocram.
 * Megashark, Venus Magnum, or Clockwork Assault Rifle can be helpful paired up with Chlorophyte Bullets.

For Magic users:


 * A Rainbow Rod, Magical Harp, or Heat Ray will excel against Ocram, although the Rainbow Rod should not be used while fighting the Servants.
 * If you want an easier battle with Ocram, use Spectre armor, the Hallowed armor with the Headgear, or Chlorophyte armor with the Headgear.
 * Using a Shadowbeam Staff in an enclosed area can deal massive amounts of damage, as the projectiles can bounce off walls, which also can take out the Servants.
 * Use Chlorophyte armor (with Chlorophyte Headgear) if you want to defeat him. Otherwise, use Hallowed armor (with Hallowed Headgear).
 * Using Spectre armor with the Golden Shower is very useful as it will heal small amounts of HP rapidly, greatly reducing the effect of Ocram's strong attacks. This strategy is more useful on the 3DS version, since the Spectre Hood increases magic damage done instead of lowering it. At times, this is also useful for switching between the Golden Shower and another Magic weapon for even more damage. The Cursed Flames (the corruption equivalent of the Golden Shower) is less useful since the flames are affected by gravity.
 * A Spectre Staff can be very useful if combined with Spectre armor (with the hood), which heals you as you attack. This is especially useful because the Staff's projectiles fire fast and target the servants instead of Ocram, quickly dealing large amounts of damage to the servants and Ocram himself, after the Servants are gone.
 * The Inferno Fork is an excellent weapon against Ocram, as it is not immune to the On Fire! Debuff. It is also useful for getting rid of its servants.

For Summoners:


 * Minions such as the or  are very effective against Ocram. Another option is the  if you have defeated Duke Fishron.
 * Sentries such as the or  are good additional minions.
 * The Spooky/Tiki armor sets can boost both minion damage and amount, but if those are unavailable, use Spider armor.
 * You will want to equip high-tier summoning items like the Papyrus Scarab, Pygmy Necklace, and Necromantic Scroll to add extra knockback and extra minions to help in the fight.

Accessories

 * A Star Veil or Cross Necklace will help with the servants and lasers.
 * Wear a Cobalt Shield, Obsidian Shield or Ankh Shield to prevent knockback.
 * Use Wings and Frostspark Boots, Lightning Boots or Spectre Boots for increased speed and mobility. Master Ninja Gear or the Tabi can also be useful for dodging the laser barrages during the second phase.
 * If you use magic, a Mana Flower can be helpful. However, the Servants of Ocram often supply you with enough Mana that potions will hardly be necessary. Magic Cuffs can be used in place of the Mana Flower as well, if you want to avoid Mana Sickness entirely.
 * Equipping a Celestial Stone gives the player many advantages, including 4 defense, life regeneration, and increased damage.
 * An emblem or Charm of Myths is good for all damage types except summoning. If you use the Fire Gauntlet, Warrior Emblem, Avenger Emblem and Destroyer Emblem with Vampire Knives and melee armor such as Dragon armor or Beetle Armor, the fight will be much easier. If you are fighting Ocram before Golem, use Turtle Armor.
