| + | The '''Flamethrower''' is a [[Hardmode]] [[ranged weapon]] that uses [[Gel]] for [[ammunition]]. The Flamethrower's projectiles pierce through unlimited enemies and inflict the [[On Fire]] [[debuff]]! |

| − | This is the equipment players should aim for before digging for an iron anvil. This is generally the best equipment you'll get without an Anvil, unless you find a lucky Chest or two. Cautious use of the bow can enable characters to take out enemies up to and including [[Skeleton]]s, though [[Giant Worm]]s pose a serious threat at this stage. |
||
| + | For a standard Flamethrower, every click of the attack button consumes one Gel and generates five "lines" of fire in quick succession, that can be spread over an area by moving the mouse while firing. With some [[Modifier]]s that increase firing speed (eg. Unreal and Rapid), each attack consumes two gel and fires six lines. Its best modifier is '''Unreal'''. |

| − | This is the Melee set for early Hardmode, before fighting any metallic bosses. Palladium armor is arguably the best of the hardmode ore armors, and specially for tanks, as they greatly increase life regeneration when hit. Adamantite and Titanium both take great amounts of time to grind on, so it's often better to go for Cobalt or Mythril tier armor unless absolutely required, in the case of Casters. |

||

||
| − | |||
| − | This is the early Hardmode Caster set, before fighting any metallic bosses. It requires Titanium/Adamantite rather than Palladium due to the fact that unlike Melee and Ranged it cannot take advantage of Frost Armor and doesn't get an upgrade until Chlorophyte. Due to the difficulty of the hardmode jungle, it is almost required to have either Titanium/Adamantite or Frost+ armor to survive in it. The Poison staff, a very, VERY good Magic weapon is available as soon you enter hardmode, and is an outstanding weapon throughout all of hardmode. Similarly, the Diamond staff was an outstanding weapon throughout all of normal mode, and is also very good during early hardmode. Again, the Mana Flower isn't really necessary, depending on personal preference. |

||
| − | '''Summary''' |
||
| − | |||
| − | The Tank Mage is a high survivability, high DPS build. Menacing is preferable over warding and Arcane, because Spectre armor's set bonus will heal you more the more damage you deal. This build is to be used with mana potions or [[Magic Cuffs]]. [[Nimbus Rod]] and [[Staff of the Frost Hydra]] are used for passive damage, which leads to passive healing. Do note that the Frost Hydra does NOT heal you, as it deals minion damage rather than magic damage. [[Star Veil]] or [[Cross Necklace]] are very good for more survivability, as this helps tremendously with bosses. Overall, this build is a build for DPS and Healer roles. The high DPS can keep teammates alive, while still taking down enemies at incredibly fast rates. Keep [[Nimbus Rod]] and [[Staff of the Frost Hydra]] up as much as possible, and use [[Magnet Sphere]] and switch to another weapon, when [[Magnet Sphere]] runs out, cast another one. The [[Leaf Blower]] and the [[Blizzard Staff]] have the highest DPS of all, allowing for insane healing against bosses. |

This set will wreck [[The Destroyer]] with the harp in addition to being fairly effective on [[The Twins]] and [[Skeletron Prime]]. In PvP, this set has a very wide range of options with the power of a boss itself. It is highly recommended to carry a few slots of [[Mana Potion]], so that there is no real need for retreat. The use of [[Greater Healing Potion]] is almost necessary. The last accessory is pretty much up to choice depending on how you use the weapons.

| − | Putting every tiny wee percent of magical strength, which can of course include consuming potions of magical power, into the strongest single-target spell there is, the nuker relies on a heavy hit-and-run strategy, including to knock away enemies while running for it when reaching zero mana. Since the Wizard Hat alone delivers a 15% boost to magic damage and each part of the meteor armor comes with another 5%, the armor alone gives the player a damage boost of 20%. This is most effective when used on magic weapons with an already high base damage. |

The Flamethrower is a Hardmode ranged weapon that uses Gel for ammunition. The Flamethrower's projectiles pierce through unlimited enemies and inflict the On Fire debuff!
For a standard Flamethrower, every click of the attack button consumes one Gel and generates five "lines" of fire in quick succession, that can be spread over an area by moving the mouse while firing. With some Modifiers that increase firing speed (eg. Unreal and Rapid), each attack consumes two gel and fires six lines. Its best modifier is Unreal.

Notes
A gel farm.
- Water stops the Flamethrower's projectiles, although it will hit enemies just under its surface, and it will not fire at all while under water. The Flamethrower will fire into lava, but will not fire from within lava.
- The Flamethrower has the ability to pierce throw 4 enemies, hitting up to about 5 enemies per shot.
- If shot at a 1-block thick floor from below, enemies walking on top will take damage.
- The Frost Moon event adds the Elf Melter, an indirect upgrade of the Flamethrower.
Tips
- Flamethrowers are exceptional for boss fights, especially against The Destroyer, because the Flamethrower can hit multiple segments at once.
- Although five to six shots can be fired per press, firing six shots at the same enemies are likely to only cause three hits on each enemy, which should be kept in mind so as not to waste gel.
- A Flamethrower with the Slow modifier may actually be better, as it does not consume as much gel but has around the same DPS.
- One could make a gel farm using Slime Statues to easily stockpile ammunition. Gastropods are another abundant source.
- If one cannot find any slime statues, the Slime Rain event is a great way to farm gel if you can trigger one.
