The way I killed him was with Shadowscale armor, Flamerang, Shuriken (250), 10 Healing Potions, Demon bow with Fire arrows, Meteor Hamaxe, and a Phaseblade just in case. (Didn't need to use it.) I basically used the strategy above; Take out the arms. I did get stuck a few times with the spinning head attack, but if you have the Balloon and/or Cloud in a Bottle, it's easy to get out of. Once the arms are out of the picture, it's pretty much a win for you already unless you haven't damaged his head that much or it's almost morning. With the weapons you have, I suggest the Demon Bow, Blade of Grass, Vilethorn, and Shadowscale armor. If you have any Questions just reply! :)
