Last Prism has always been my favourite weapon. Just watching it charge up first damaging a wide area, then speeding up as the beam gets narrower and starts dealing more base damage, and finally just disintegrating any non-boss (includes event) enemy within 1 second.
I'll say this: as a mage, I wish for a set with an unbelievably low defense stat, around maybe 10 in exchange for big increase in magic damage, turning you into a nuker build
You should look into the Max Mana Cost Reduction/Max Mana build. It's such a goofy way to play Mage in Terraria, bringing your weapons' Mana Costs to absurdly low levels, and having 400 Mana to boot. It's Chlorophyte Helmet, Diamond Robe, and Nebula Leggings to give Mana, Mana Reduction, and Magic Damage. Then you use the 5 Nature's Gift Accessories for additional reduction (Nature's Gift, Arcane Flower, Magnet Flower, Mana Cloak, and Mana Flower.) Together, this yields 55% (assuming additive). Stack on Clairvoyance from a Crystal Ball, and you get +25% Mana Reduction for 57% total. I don't recall if there is anything else you can stack on for lower amounts, but it's insanely easy to hit 400 Mana with 57% Mana Usage Reduction, then dump the rest into Defense or Damage.
ye its actually viable due to how mana cost reduction works. the more you stack the more you gain from it and you can use it to make cost heavy weapons more viable
Max damage isn't the same as max DPS, and DPS is what really matters Having equal bonuses to damage and crit (up to 100% crit) is optimal for 0 defense enemies since they stack multiplicatively with each other, but crits double damage after defense is applied so that complicates things
I just did my first playthrough since 1.1 and I cannot praise these kinds of videos enough. I was so lost coming back into the game after so many years, but these simple form, shorter style content makes it easier to consume and figure out what is right for me. All these random tips are super useful, and I'd love to see more
An add on, cuz I don’t feel like editing: I’d like to see the max time you can fire the last prism, because it sucks up mana like a man coming out of the desert after five years
@@Meowlegend7They're talking about the nature of the late game melee weapons, most of them fire projectiles similar to ranger and mage weapons, it's less melee and more swords that shoot projectiles
the last prism is my favourite weapon to use in pvp with max mage i’ve been doing it for over a yr and i just one shot any one and i mean one shot when fully charged and i like prep it and do a nice clean slice it’s so satisfying
Awesome series so far 😃, but now i wonder 🤔 What about maximum mana cost reduction WITHOUD using mana potions (altho you're allowed to use mana flower but without mana potions for auto consumption)
godly/mythical is better than ruthless tho yea its 3% less damage but its 5% more crit which might as well be same % more damage (would be higher % if crits were more than double)
Do you ever plan on talking about how usefulthe Pigronata is? They’re an easy to obtain source of both the best pre-hardmode bullets and one of the best food buffs in the game, and once you factor in the chance of getting money from them, their initially high price is reduced significantly
Hey, can you make a video on menacing vs arcane (or a perfect mix of both) accessories on mage loadouts to see if it is better than plain menacing because of less mana sickness
Last prism is the mage Zenith, agree. But I would love a Zenith spellbook, using all of them to a giant effect. We even have our last spellbook drop fron the big bad itself (and, tbh, lunar flare is amazing too). I would even pitch a black hole like effect. We use our power to summon a sphere anywhere we click that damage anything it touchs and last some seconds. As a added effect, it groups enemys and "reverse knockback" them, trapping them inside it. It eould be eomewhat bad at bosses, but a amazing cc alternative weapon, being even better at events.
my favorite endgame build is a sentry/mage build with the old one's army armor set, because i can semi-afk anywhere, instantly, and because mage is so diverse although i carry a rocket launcher with cluster rockets just for fun :3
Spectre Armor (Damage, not heal one) is the best DPS with Bat Scepter. You can hit tons of damage with set bonus also from miles away safely. Healing one is also stupidly OP but this video is about DMG so
Hey Sockrteez love your videos, I've watched the max immunity video and it works but not against duke. Any tips on a box setup and other ways to easily cheese him?
Well The Last Prism Is Good,But Not Too Good At The Same Time, Because I Need To Always Have So Many Mana Potions To Use It,And With Mana Cloak Is The Best Things I Usually Do
4:10 ha yes the post moon lord weapon is good against moon lord so to beat moon lord easily you need last prism to get last prism you need to beat moonlord
This is probably a good time to say that dmg% increases are multiplicative, not additive like critical strike chance. I may be wrong but from what I recall it’s to ensure that dmg% increases aren’t insanely overpowered
@@Significantharrassment To be fair, you get the crazy OP shit at postgame, where you are murdering moonlord like hes the eye of cthulhu at end of prehardmode also, the last prism IS the zenith for mages. just easier to get (a drop from moonlord) and also the last prisim is the most OP thing in the game by far besides the zenith.
Little secret feature of the Last Prism: the beam colour will change depending on certain character names! Very cool!
Which names?

Its crazy to see how far it can go the moment i did a playthrough with it it became my favourite and it still is
The fact that with the right setup things like zenith do 7 billion dps is insane, late game melee is so broken XD
the only reason true melee exists is because relogic just made melee into mage (except the zenithh thats just ranged) and i dony know why

Max movement speed next? Interested in lances... either way, love your content man

Hey, can you make a video on menacing vs arcane (or a perfect mix of both) accessories on mage loadouts to see if it is better than plain menacing because of less mana sickness
That oughtta be fun on a No-Frames playthrough
The beam when fully concentrated actually deals 3x the base damage of the weapon itself.
The best Terraria videos on youtube! Thx
Last prism is the mage Zenith, agree.

Spoilers for a terraria mod
But that's what one of the endgame items do in The Stars Above
my favorite endgame build is a sentry/mage build with the old one's army armor set, because i can semi-afk anywhere, instantly, and because mage is so diverse
although i carry a rocket launcher with cluster rockets just for fun :3
Its safe to say that max damage magebuild destroys the zenth
I love how in every Video the Armor combination looks extremly wierd😂
Spectre Armor (Damage, not heal one) is the best DPS with Bat Scepter. You can hit tons of damage with set bonus also from miles away safely. Healing one is also stupidly OP but this video is about DMG so

You used to be able to go higher using the celestial stone, but it doesn’t stack anymore.
I find it funny how early hm armor gives the best raw magic damage
Man i love ur videos, u just never fail to disappoint
"never fail to disappoint"
yeah...
word choice
A random God wand in Noita: hold my beer.
Btw if you dont get the emblem u want just keep throwing in shimmer untill u get it.
It would be cool to see max "something" about summoner idk what could be but.. i would like to see it
Can you do max summoner damage next?
Max minion slots perhaps maybe you can intertwine damage into that video too
Do max range damage next, would love to see a video like that, ranged is my favorite class.
Goodbye mana potions
I'm surprised you didn't add permanent buff like the shimmered consumables.
This is ungodly. Outrageous, even. More vile than the devil himself. Thank you for showing me.
Maybe for a ultimate mage weapon, they just make it last prism but with drastically lower mana use speed
I find it funny he compares Prism to Zenith, when we originally got Zenith i always compared it to the Prism but for melee
Last Prism is such a fun weapon to use
last prism and its upgrades are good fun
now all I'm wanting to see is the biggest melee weapon possible
Nice video, can you make one about max possible mana regeneration or something like that? I am seriously curious
Wait till he covers max ranged damage. The numbers gonna go crazy
how come you didn't use dark artists robes instead it has higher defense and mana reduction?
Can you do a video on why beds are much more helpful now. Since they speed up time by 5x when slept in?
sockrteez videos be like: this weapon is a hidden gem… (copper axe)
Ranged needs a rainbow ultimate weapon, they are the last class without one
Well The Last Prism Is Good,But Not Too Good At The Same Time, Because I Need To Always Have So Many Mana Potions To Use It,And With Mana Cloak Is The Best Things I Usually Do
Next do classless damage
I think classless damage will be interesting since not many things have it
Hes gonna think of a new adjective every video
Well thats a master of a spark
Would the set bonus from the spectre armor be relevant or it does not enough damage?
I’m *beaming* over this vid!
I wonder what the max DPS for every class is
what about the alien laser blaster the mega man weapon it’s a really powerful one that i think could work with this setup
But how do you get so much mana the mana sickness gets rid of 45% damage and there isn't even any type of mana flower here either.
journey mode my friend
I reformed my prism to mythical for extra speed and damage took a while tho lol
Max amount of minions would be pretty cool
Maybe you could try something like this with summoner or ranger
The beam of death!💀 I love it! 👍
4:10 ha yes the post moon lord weapon is good against moon lord so to beat moon lord easily you need last prism to get last prism you need to beat moonlord
will there be a maximum debuff build ?
Ok, now do Max damage, crit, knockback and max speed
Next video Max summoner damage
This is probably a good time to say that dmg% increases are multiplicative, not additive like critical strike chance. I may be wrong but from what I recall it’s to ensure that dmg% increases aren’t insanely overpowered
how do I get those shaders like you did?
Egg.

I don’t understand ho to get enough mana to use the last prism
last prism has better range than zenith
i love you socreteez
No joke i did this but i used nebula armor instead and somehow did 12k dmg on one hit
Maximum summon dmg next?
Now do max dps with summoner.
True maximum magic damage is the vortex beater bug+ Last Prism
zenith dealing 5x more with no bonuses 🗿🗿🗿
*MASTER SPAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARK*
What's your build, cus how the hell do you keep that prism last so long💀
What about the mana consumption tho?
Laser machine gun review when?
Wouldn't lucky increase damage more?
It is extremely powerful, but it is not comparable to the zenith
I still really love your videos but I hope you start putting a bid of comedy in like you used to a while back
Make sure you have a mana flower and alot of mana potions to make it last FOREVER!
