Sentries are by far the most ignored and under developed weapons in Terraria. Having only 17 total weapons and two sets of armor. With how abysmally terrible this class is I wanted to find out if it was possible to beat all of Terraria Master Mode using nothing but sentries. Hope you enjoy! :)

It kinda sucks that the only 2 great sentries are from after moonlord is killed. Hopfully in 1.4.5 sentries will get their final rework to make the sub-class viable.
It isn't meant to be a subclass, you are meant to use sentries along with any of the main classes. If sentries were buffed a lot, OOA armor would be insanely OP and even just playing a base summoner with increased sentries would be really strong.
@@Sunnysideanywayits a singleplayer game
@@palomito7257 And if it were imbalanced, people would only play the game one way.
"Final" lol
Sentries are just meant to compliment your summoner mob count.
He looks insane, but this comes from the guy who beat day time empress of light as a summoner pre-moonlord (not that big of a deal tho) , and the guy who beat terraria with only traps.
I mean,i defeated empress of light pre-moonlord only using dark harvest and crow staff lol
@@mmarnaljr8048 was it day time? Was it master mode?
@@mmarnaljr8048 Was it hardcore?!?!
@@notmetagamingwas it calamity mod?!?!?
@@notmetagaming it was.
The initial OOA grind, there's a fairly well known easy way to get extra sentries. Ethirian Mana is a physical item in your inventory, and it can freely be placed into chests like any other item. Once the event finishes, any Mana in your inventory is removed. If you open a chest, any Mana in it is also removed once you open it. The update is only done once you open the chest. Nothing stops you from starting an event, storing Mana, losing, then starting a new event before opening the chest. I usually use this when trying to kill Betsy just so I can leave the crystal alone and focus the boss, but this works at any progression level
After a recent update, this method doesn’t work anymore. But it still works with player based inventories like piggy banks and Safes.
Or u can just make a hoik
Tips for OOA: you can open doors. Such as trapdoors. This allows you to keep all ground bound enemies underground and useless, or you can use a hoik to disable them as well.
I thought OOA had a lot of methods to make that kind of stuff useless? >.> Like, ghosting through walls and stuff, useless. Also, pretty sure trapdoors *don't* work, but I may be thinking of platforms... I tried but spent thirty minutes trying to get the thing to work till I realized *two platforms on my hellevator* were in the way. x)
@mdbgamer556 hoiks worked last time I checked
defeated it pretty easily with hoiks, still being pre-hardmode
24:17 ayo bro needs to chill 💀
I still don't get it
@@retroshark8 he is attracted to a literal plant
@@Ayjay_Puffball I kinda get that, but I don't get why... Did he like Planter's colour palette? Was it her "personality"? I know I'm taking it too seriously, but there's always a reason and it being the only joke of that kind in the video, it bothered me, but I can just forget it. It's not that important.
he was obviously talking about the famous entity known as "hrhhhh " which appears when a game is boring and tries to cure the boredom by doing various things such as adding screen effects (i have to say this comment is a joke because some people can never tell for some reason)
Have you seen videos by WaffleTime? He's a whole different kind of down bad for plant MILF
34:15 Revolutionary technique. We should all be taking notes.
lmao
okey but will we not talk about him "upgrading" to leaf wing at the fucking moonlord?
Lmaa i cant believe it, like he couldve farm betsy a bit more to get its wings and cheese moonlord with hovering like a mosquito.@@thewonderofdrip6934
@@thewonderofdrip6934 I was just about to talk about that, like, leafs are the 2 worst wings in the game after 1.4😂
Tell me why you are the only KZheadr that makes these Terraria challenge videos and I can actually sit through the entire video. I've seen similar videos and dunno why these are different, but definitely keep going and keep more coming!
Fr Fr
*Waffletime has left the chat*
pls try @Wand of sparkling. He is like this as well only without speaking, just text. But if you want something relaxing and mute, as well as entertaining, try him. I love him.
Most Terraria KZheadrs over edit their videos, skipping out a lot of progress. This feels more down to earth and relatable
I’m making a Chanel that dose things like these I actually thought of doing this same idea and might still. So I’m been bing watching theese kind of videos to see how they do things
dude trashes his copper short sword when he could’ve just thrown it to a slime and got squire slime
for people who love cute things, it could be useful, but this guy is built different, he doesnt need a squire slime
I believe Squire Slime can do small amounts of damage @@Kyle_Reese
town slimes are useless sorry
@Kyle_Reese idk. To me he looks like the kind of guy who likes cute stuff.
Explosive traps are crazy underrated. They goated , esecially for moon lord cuz you can get them all on the same block and melt the eyes.
Yeah, I don't get explosive trap sentry hate. I always go explosive trap. It's an easy win every time.
@@JigglesMcRibs I always rush golem after plantera because the tier 3 explosive trap helps so much in the dungeon, and if you use the armour set you can oil enemies which is also really slept on.
Right? I couldn't believe the amount of stuff this guy was willing to try without ever considering the Explosives. They can solo the first two Old One's Army events if you just stick a bunch of them in a row by the portals, even killing Wyverns before they can fly high enough.
Bro could be putting all that mana to use too by repeatedly summoning the explosive trap over n over on top of an enemy, bypassing its attack cooldown and bursting it down. Its high dmg, bursting with your mana, with oil later on makes it a damn terror. When i hit hard mode n need better gear I go to the spiders nest right away n burst em down with explosive trap. What would take forever to kill is now a pile of meat in seconds.
@@RoxxyVillguarde they patched the instant attack from OOA sentries. The reason why people don't use Explosive Trap sentries are due to long lasting misinfo it been cursed with for over half a decade, which is a shame and annoying because it has the strength equal to lightning aura but with little to no setup requirement. The fact it got buffed despite Ballista and Flameburst are 2 that was needed the buff the most is outright a crime, thanks god Re-Logic awared of it later, still left Flameburst behind though.
Btw the explosive trap is insane when well used against the old one's army and can be enough until betsy , it can even kill the flying ennemies when placed on the crystal , it is easily the 2nd or 3rd best old one's army weapon , other than that i wish terraria made sentries more viable , rather than just something you place down because it deals a tiny bit more dmg and leave it
Agree, just place three rows of platforms in front of each portal and it shredded everything
Explosive Trap was always the strongest OOA sentry for event since it first introduced, and the fact that 1.4.1 buff it from community request and not buff the others still haunted me for years. What can I say, Ballista's misinfomation at it finest The fact that almost nobody care about OOA is the reason why the misinfo last for half decade. They finally buff Ballista at the end.
If you prefer whip stacking, the lighting aura rod is basically a makeshift blade staff lmao
After seeing the master mode summoner playtrough 7 times i can say that this dude is the best
Same🤣
If you struggle with OOA you could do the distraction method to save up mana and store it in a chest next to the crystal. As long as the chest in NEVER opened outside of the event that mana will be stored and not disappear. Just lose the game several times and BOOM! you save enough to spawn multiple ballisters and wipe them.
Huh...
Terraria is packed full of stuff like this that feels like a glitch that relogic only hasn't patched out because they feel like players have earned a little treat. Kind of like how they officially accepted the hoik as a feature, not a bug.
or just use hoiks
Explosive Traps and Flameburst sentries are better than the Ballistae IMO because of their higher DPS. Lightning Auras are good with the specialized armor. You actually can teleport your way out of the Destroyer fight. Put 2 teleporters at the same height far away from each other and put Explosive Traps between them. Destroyer doesn't despawn due to distance, so you can teleport to keep him entirely offscreen and on top of your infinitely piercing Explosive Traps.
yeah this guy doesnt have much imagination
He fell to pride@@JibrilPC
im almost sure that destroyer never despawns, i saw someone cheese destroyer using a magic conch
If you think about it, NPCs are sort of moving sentries that can be destroyed.
good job at keeping me engaged :) you do a great job at pacing and wording your script. well done !
OMG YES!!!! i just started watching your videos again. perfect timing. btw thank you for your time and effort spent doing these types of videos. : )
I discovered this channel yesterday and I'm already happy to see new videos popping up. I know I'm in for a ride!!
babe wake up new rather quenched video is up
absolutely banger video. super engaging and, unlike some terraria challenge vids i watch, it actually seemed like you had creative power and difficulty when working on this! great work! :)
Keep up the great terraria master series :) Plenty of builds still to do, I love watching em' and quening them all up when i hit the sack after a long day of work!
"phase one is boring, except for her" had me dead bro 😆
There are a lot of ways to make this run easier. (I'm watching this video as of writing this, will edit as I progress) - OOA: you can use platform hoik to make all ground enemies harmless, allowing you to clear the event more easily. - All nighttime bosses: you can play the dontdigup seed to remove ALL time limits from bossfights (except deerclops and wall of flesh) - Twins: for retinazor second phase, just box yourself in and you're completely safe from all attacks. It doesn't shoot through walls and it never dashes at you. - Destroyer does not despawn when you are far away. You can use the magic conch to teleport to the other ocean and heal up (or use other means of long range teleporting) - Generally for low damafe weapons, going for tankier builds is better. If you can survive indefinitely then it doesn't matter which weapon you use. There's also the ultimate uber cheese method of saving up eternia crystals and then spawning hundreds of sentries at once while the event is active but you wouldn't have an interesting video that way lol
3 of the 5 points you mentioned are cheeses lol
Amazing video! I really liked how you focused on the problem solving which is one of the reasons I adore challenge videos.
man I dont watch long format gaming videos a lot but this was so entertaining to watch. Excellent video. Ive seen other challenge videos from terraria from other people and the werent as engaging
If you actually do this with only century damage that’s extremely impressive. When other KZheadrs do these challenges they often bend the rules when they don’t have to but only a minute into the video I can tell you’re serious and I love it, I’ll sub and I know you’ll be big soon keep it up man
I think sentries-only is one of the most painful weapon type-only runs you can do in this game. Shortswords-only, repeaters-only, and launchers-only are the only ones I'd say are worse.
This guy deserves more than his subs because i mean he has like 60+ hours on every single world he does and has spent to much time and his life on this game, mad respect.
Kinda tired of terraria challenges already, but this was genuinely very fun to watch!! Great video!! 😄
Before OOA difficulty got drastically tuned down. Explosive Trap was the only sentry that allow you to die twice without instantly lost the OOA event in Master Mode even during it pre-buff, twice, and can guard Betsy for quite a long duration compared to all other OOA sentry.
this is such a well made video nice job man
By far my favorite Terraria KZheadr. I can rewatch videos and they'll still make my day like the first time I watched them.
This is both an excellent presentation and a good challenge, awesome :) If you don't mind a bit of cheese: You can set one of your teleporters just outside of the Ocean Biome - because as soon as you get outside of the Ocean Biom while Duke is spawned, he enrages and ignores all of his other stuff, just dashing at you. Then you teleport back into the Ocean Biome with the other teleporter, effectively resetting his AI. He'll never spawn tornadoes this way
You're really good at this game! I've seen a lot of Terraria KZheadrs and a lot of challenges be done, but I've never seen someone make use of Skeletron Prime's daytime rage before! I will definitely be coming back to this channel in the future.
The amount of comments recommending cheese methods is very strange. Like, why even do the challenge if you're just going to cheese everything?
Exactly 🤣 plus more quality content and.. uhh.. more time wasted?
You can watch a youtuber called sorbet cafe who killed moonlord using a copper shortsword, flare gun, and lawn mower. When the leeches spawn you can teleport to the other side of the world, unlike moonlord who instantly teleports to you the leeches despawn allowing you to moon lord to stop healing.
Huge respect to you for sticking to your challenge so strictly and not allowing stuff like titanium armour or inferno potions, it makes this so much more satisfying to watch than other terraria creators. Keep bein awesome dude.
How about a book only run?
Waterbolt is very hard to get tho
@@AAAAAAAAAAAAA167 how so? reset until you get a world with it.
@@baf__1.4 patched early water bolt
finally someone who doesnt have a playthrough with 50+ quality of life mods
Wow, did I really watch this for 40 minutes? amazing content man, good job!
I love this video, I can't stop watching it so much that I'm going to do the challenge, your character became the sentinel defender and saved them all, good video
YES NEW RATHER QUENCHED UPLOAD TO WATCH 7 TIMES IN A ROW
another quench vid les gooo babyyyyyyyy
İncredible video dude I thought this was impossible (also W editing)
i love your videos 😼😼 i hope you never quit, you deserve WAY more subs. thank you
Fresh from the oven
Yes
had to sub after this herculean efffort. Keep it up!!
I would have loved to see the final in-game time. Obviously wouldn’t include other game practice or brainstorming sessions, but it would be fun to see. Nicely done!
This was incredible, amazing work.
Bro dedication is truly amazing. If I did this challenge, I'd probably go crazy fighting the deerclops
You are truly a god. I tried this challenge 5-6 months ago, but i stopped on Wall of Flesh. Now I`m motivated to repeat your feat
very very very nice i can see how much of a dedication and diligance is put into this you will be an exelent youtuber (already are but much bigger as one you will be)
If I could like this 100 times, I 100% would. One like is simply inefficient for the sheer dedication and polish that went into this video. Great job!
You’ve done an amazing job, bro. Hats off to you 🎉
Can you please continue making more of these videos because they are so enjoyable. I would love to see more
this is extremely impressive. as someone doing sentry summoner right now (basically this but i have whips, SO much easier) on expert mode, you've gone through much farther lengths through everything, in master mode too! here's something VERY key about the frost hydra sentries though: their invincibility frames SUCK. if you'll notice at 38:04 , not every projectile hits. the projectiles interrupt each other because they dont have local immunity frames (like the ballista staff, for example, does), so using them together like that can hurt dps at extreme levels. hope that explains that! i did love how you named each sentry though. very fun touch
This is incredible. The level of skill and amount of dedication is just amazing. Im so impressed. Well done!
Huge respect for staying with the spirit of the run
Man, big effort! KUDOS
This guy has way too much dedication. Well done!
For the Old Ones Army, you could've put the 10 starting mana into a chest and not to open it when not fighting the army. That way, you get as much mana as you want and place like 100 sentries at the start of the event.
I love little tricks like this, got any more? :)
terraria has to have the most dedicated and fuckin insane community. the challenges are unbelieveable. good job
This was 40 Minutes???? Damn that flew by like it was nothing I was so invested!
You can place the crystal holder 4 blocks high for the old ones army, making it immune to units in wave 1 and some enemies further in
I have never played terraria in my life and don't really like it but still watch like every video of yours youtube recommends me xD
I never thought this challenge was actually possible and this comes from someone who beat master mode legendary world as summoner huge respect you trully made terraria history
Eternia event armor is lowkey fantastic though. The Valhalla Knights set and the flying dragon are fun and just useful.
I CANT stop watching this video its so good!
Mad lad! Nice job!
Loving these challenges
Good job man. Didn’t think it was possible
Very entertaining series :)
new video les goo!! you are so fking underrated bro!
First guy I’ve seen that doesn’t use quality of life mods, keep it up!
This was crazy impressive. Absolutely love your content and seeing you crush these challenges! Can’t wait for the next one 😊
for OOA you can use a simple hoik at each portal to stall the enemies, and then stack either ballista or flameburst sentries at the crystal to kill flying enemies. use the trap to kill enemies that are stuck in the hoik
Explosive Trap is incredible, it’s just not the best boss weapon. Easily my favorite of the bunch
I've done this playthrough before. Honestly, even on master mode this was one of the most fun playthroughs I've done ever
A better thing to do instead of trashing the copper short sword is just chucking it at the first slime you see to get a free Npc for lower enemy spawns by your base for the first night
Finnaly it's great to hear your voice❤
Nice strat making Skeletron Prime fly along the ground where the baby spiders could reach him!
Once again, an awesome video.
There is a placeable version of a snowball cannon that looks like a sentry and shoots independently without aiming, but it’s no class so I don’t know if it would fit the criteria. Its dropped by snow flinxes
I hope they add more sentry that can homing. Sentry ironically satisfying class, lmao.
was waiting for someone to do this
His comeback in old ones army made me happy
Great job!! you are the master
this dude's dedication is respectable
For the old ones army, there's a trick with platforms that prevents the ground enemies from passing through.
You should have used some flamebursts for destroyer, they would have been able to hit the probes, and if you put ballistas at the bottom the would have dealt the damage, but it was really creative the way that you actually beat destroyer.
This game is balanced great video man
the fact that you mined out a pit under the moon lord arena before upgrading your wings is astounding
just to let you know you can cheese the old one's army with hoiks, by placing a full block and hammering it so that the triangle is facing towards where the portal is, you can block swap a platform with it and the walking enemies will be unable to go past it, so long as you don't go over them causing them to jump towards you, the only issue with the event then is the wyverns, but lightning aura staffs are actually pretty good at dealing with them. not to invalidate your hard work but at least you managed to beat it without the cheese method which is pretty impressive and I certainly didn't think it was possible with only sentries.
This is something I've seen a good bit lately. People trying to fight fishron with pixie wings and getting cooked. The fights all about maneuverability. You gotta upgrade them boize.
how do you have motivation to make this, i barely have motivation to watch it... You deserve more likes, your a real terraria player❤
14:13 I've been playing master mode and everything seed for quite some time, and FINALLY I saw someone using rails as well to create a hell bridge! xD I find them superior, both resource and speed wise (dude, 1 iron bar for 50 rails!? and you can place them in zigzag too!) As a rail hell bridger, I approve of this xD
For tanking moonlord I'd recommend using the gold cross accessory, the one that doubles your i-frames after taking a hit, it helped me greatly on expert, but I'm not sure if you'll be able to survive master like that
Honestly really really impressive, you could have taken the dmg and incredible speed gained from the shrimpy truffle mount to make the moonlord easier but you found a cooler solution
Quick tip hoink for the waves Hoinks are a feature/bug that makes it so no one can enter on one side but projectiles can Go through it
You're amazing my guy
31:16 “h e double hockey sticks” ah, a fan of Game Theory I see…
