Not to worry. In my current playthough I'm using an imported character for a hybrid creative/survival build and I haven't killed any bosses. In my 'real' game my pig farm is under The Elders platform. Just gotta dig deep and pen them around the edges so the Elder Fire doesn't scare 'em. Totally impervious to all attack. Except me and my butcher knife.

Li'l pro tip for any noobs out there.
