Guide:The Torch God strategies

Summoning
The Torch God is summoned when the player places around 100 of any type of torch anywhere below the surface.

Terrain Preparation

 * Open areas are useful as you have a lot of space to move around.
 * Different torches have different flame colors. Crimson Torches are a bad idea to use, as the flames are almost impossible to see. Using Ultrabright Torches will give you an easy time to spot as they have very bright flames.
 * Creating a loop of Minecart Track around the torches can be an effective way to dodge the fireballs easily.
 * Circling the flames using Rope and Platforms is an easy way to avoid being hit.

Armor

 * An Ultrabright Helmet can be used for greatly increased vision at the cost of a possible higher defense helmet.

Accessories

 * Items like the Black Belt and Cross Necklace will completely stop damage altogether with dodges and immunity frames.

Potions

 * Using Calming Potions will stop the extra enemies from spawning, allowing you to focus more on dodging.
 * Vision-increasing potions like the Night Owl Potion makes the projectiles easier to spot.
 * The Ironskin Potion will help you tank in case that you got hit by a flame.

Tips

 * Enabling autopause will be helpful to dodge the fireballs easily by planning your next move every time you open your inventory.
 * Using Peace Candles will stop the extra enemies from spawning, allowing you to focus more on dodging.

Alternative strategies

 * The projectiles can be easily avoided by placing all the torches in the center of your arena, building a large open space underground and moving in one direction (near the edges) during the event.
 * Good additions to your arena are a rope ladder, as dodging the flames vertically is easy. Non-torch light sources, like lanterns and campfires, will help you to see better.
