Yeah I've often read here and heard from others that the Blob is one of the dumbest fights.
But look on the bright side, you only have to beat him once for the wishbone uu.
When you have absolute problems to kill him, you can even cheese him. There are hundreds video about this boss, because ... many people don't like him xD.

if you have iron you can make a crock pot which means you should have better food than just sausage. get some turnip stew or farm wheat and make fish wraps, or farm serpents or lox.


also uh.... what is "skeleton boss" ? yag? yeah you're gonna need more than iron sword for that xD
it sounds like you skipped mountain biome / tier weaps and went straight to plains; i did the same thing. Go to mountains and farm up that silver.




edit: ok bonemass; tbh, yes, you really do kind of need to wean him down with arrows (fire works good for this and is easy to make)
If you plan on doing that melee only, you better have some serious food and maybe gear and , in any case, you need stacks of pots unless you're like guy perfecto

tbh i had to wiki it for you bc i dont know but he's weak to: frost, blunt and resistant to : slash (haha i wish i knew this before). he's immune to poison & stagger effects.


bruh yes there's potions xD see crock pot

you will always want healing and stam potions for boss fights (they currently go up to "medium" tier) and always want to have resistance potio for whatever boss do.

Blunt weapons, poison resistance, prepare an arena before summoning. Simply maxing your hp and armor is rarely enough to facetank a boss.

Use blunt weapon (mace) since he's weak to blunt damage, use foods that give good health boost, and for the love of Cthulhu use poison resistance mead. Your armor doesn't protect you from poison. Think about it.

Blunt weapons work really well against bonemass, maces is what you need but still have to kite him a fair I trapped him with the hoe and cheesed him. And yes you can make potions it's mead. You need honey and other resources in the pot.

i geuss setting up traps, spikes an arena might be a good idea, ill get a mace and try potion making and give it another go later.

Still at least you can fell trees real good now.

Why are melee weapons in the game if you just force me to use bows every other second.
Why does poison last long enough to kill you with fully upgraded iron armor, I had eaten sausage, and cooked meat. I had pretty much the best stuff i could have before this point in the game, yet my iron battle axe still only did like 20 damage to him per hit despite how pathetically slow it swings. This fight is just unfun. On top of all of his garbage he just constantly spawns mobs.

Have a look of my yesterday post. i explained how i killed him with only 97 frost arrows without any single damage from him. Zerooooo damage.

ps : I defeated Bonemass very easily some days ago. i've built two treehouses in front of his spawn area. The first one was with teleport and all the stuffs and the second was just higher in the opposit direction. I summoned him and ran to the second treehouse on the highest level. Bonemass was focusing on my first house. He destroyed the first level and kept on attacking the house. It took me 97 frost arrows to kill him from the second house.

'Only' 97 frost arrows.

Amazed to see to which extent people are willing to go just to avoid a melee fight. Your tactic is borderline cheesing and I bet you it took way longer and it meant way more effort to build your tree houses and to get the materials for the frost arrows then it would have been to just melee him.

All you need is:
5-6 poison resistance meads,
Level 1 Iron Armor
Fully upgraded Iron mace

Then just make sure to avoid his poison cloud when he pukes (watch his animation).

For his normal melee attack watch his movements and parry when the moment comes (you will know because he telegraphs everything he is about to do). Right after one of his melee attacks, go near him and land a few hits, because his animations are quite sluggish and you have a few seconds of respite. As soon as he begins another attack, get ready to parry or dodge. Rinse and repeat until dead.

When he throws blobs around, just kill those first before focusing on him.

I can see the appeal of shooting the bosses if you have max bow skill, mind.
