Fun fact! I still haven't reviewed even half the total weapons in the game! (Including ore variants of course lol)
@sockrteez what shroomite helmet do you recommend for moon lord
@@zacbillingham1725im not sockrteez but if i were you i would use the shroomite mask
@@ballsmann69420 cheers
@@zacbillingham1725 I concur with ballsman69420
@@zacbillingham1725 The mask with Vortex Beater + Chlorophyte Bullets, easy fight. But, I mean, if you want to use bows or something special, then you have to use the other one.
This weapon is quite fun, but there is no reason to use it for pillars when razorblade and nebula weapons exist
he didn’t even mention how much slow the weapon is when he shoots the first bolluts that’s a really big downside since you’re dodging all the time against the bosses and events so razorpine doesn’t have any of those flaws you may say the range is less with the razorpine but most of the bosses you’re going to face them so that range you will not be needed
It’s fun
@@hugemoistone of the main problems with the LMG is that it's nearly identical to the Charged Blaster Cannon with fewer upsides, as it has no piercing and is much less accurate
It's also drains mana like hell it's not worth it
the biggest flaw of the razorblade typhoon is that getting truffle worms is pain
I think this is a good time to remind you that you said that you would compair the jungle and meteor armours
which vid did he say that?
i switch to jungle as soon as a beat skeletron or find a demon scythe
@@MattEBF5why not just get jungle right off the bat?
farming the jungle really isn't a problem for mages
I always use a diamond/ruby gem robe with the wizard hat and meteor leggings, it's just way better than any full set of mage armour
@@Rubyllim finally someone gets it
The only reason why the laser machine gun will always be my pick all the way until moonlord is because it makes you feel like doom slayer
A tip I saw for more saucers per event was to have an ocean house and a spawn house. After 50% progress in the event, use a magic conch to warp to the ocean house, wait a few seconds, and if you dont see a saucer warp back. Repeat until the event ends. I get 7-8 saucers per event this way.
Brilliant tip, thank you
The razorpine exist in a mode pre-golem, the laser machinegun really needs a boost to outdo it considering the former's gamestage comes later and is from a harder event.
not really tho, since the gamestates in question are 🤏 close to each other
@@fortnitesexman Frost moon is easier and post plantera, martian invasion is post golem, I really think the discrepancy is wide enough to warrant a sizable power boost. Look at the Xenopopper, that's MILES better than the tactical shotgun (also post plantera) (also doing the math the Xenopopper should do 515-644 damage per second not counting crits or ammo damage, tactical shotgun would do 308, xeno is in the range of double DPS), laser should be comparably better since tactical and razorpine are in a similar area but xeno does so much better than tactical.
@@potato1341for me the difference between plantera golem is 5 minutes as I go kill golem as soon as I kill plantera because golem is a joke of a boss
@@mr_bob4907 well yeah he is but it's still a post golem event. Same way pillars are a post golem event, the hard part isn't getting to the game phase. If you can do plantera, golem is a pushover.
Fun fact: if you don't have a RoD moonlord fight is fairly close ranged due to laser being undodgeable at long range
you know you can just move towards moonlord only when he's firing the laser right?
@@fortnitesexman but why do that when you can get an increased dps from close range with the same safety
@@SevenRedSuns1296 damage ramp-up is a mechanic in tf2, not terraria
unless you're using an incredibly inaccurate weapon or just suck at aiming, staying the hell away from moon lord is the most optimal way to do the boss fight
@@fortnitesexman i can never do it in time or he just kills me with his other attacks idk how youre supposed to do that
@@eltiolavara9 i have no idea what the situation is but maybe your wings just suck, which ones are you using?
This weapon suffers from "
I'm gonna wait for the day sockrteez runs out of good weapons to review and reviews something like the Tin Shortsword
I remember my friend giving this weapon to me back when I played on switch, and I was blown away by how cool it was. My main issue with it is the mana consumption, though I suppose it's not much of an issue at that stage of the game. A buff would be amazing, maybe make the shots homing and/or add some piercing capabilities? Really anything would be good.
if you aren't using the mana flower thingy (presumably to have more damage/defence accessories) then this thing is a nightmare to use, it chews through mana like a pitbul in a kindergarten and half of the time using it will be in its extremely weak charge-up state
Hey Sockrteez I have an armor set that I think needs some attention. The pre-hardmode gladiator set. Good defense and an insane set bonus makes it my go to when I play melee. I use it from eoc to sometimes skeletron
FINALLY THE LASER MACHINEGUN REVIEW!!!!!
Personallly i like that weapon it really helped my mage play through although it could be upgraded
This weapon along with the charged blaster cannon are just so damn fun to use
I like the charge blaster cannon more after it's buff
I use this weapon in every Mage playthrough I do. I used it on the fortheworthy seed against Duke and got a sub 30s kill with a mage/sentry loadout.
It's also really good against empress. The range is crazy if you use asphalt and just run away from her
absolutely amazing video, i dont know how but you always seem to create fantastic videos so keep up the good work. Also could you please review the forbidden armor set please
I love this thing, its amazing against cultist and betsy, and if you're farming for the blaster cannon this will come in handy, (best with spectre hood)
razorpine is slightly better tho
this weapon will always have a special place in my heart for getting me my first duke fishron kill
that thing is my go to weapon for vanilla mage. love it even more in calamity when its upgraded to the nano purge!
sockrteez getting ready to say “of course I’m talking about…” after giving the most obscure description of a weapon know to man:
buff idea. give it mana on kill and some pierce. will help alot for invasions.
With the right build this weapon shreds wave events like old ones army and moon events
I think the Gatligator would be a great weapon to review! Its like the Chain Gun's early hardmode son
The Lazer Machine Gun Is Quite Op. I'd Say It's Quite A Good Post-Golem Weapon.
It was my favorite weapon during my mage playthrough. It’s really good even up until moonlord.
This was my favorite weapon in the Game on my first run where I got to Hardmode, There's something just so fun about firing it. The windup makes it feel like it has a real kick to it.
I mainly play modded, and am currently doing a masochist mode(fargo soul mod) playthrough. The laser machine gun was extremely good against my duke fishron fight, and actually made it semi-playable. Its great for larger bosses like EoL and Duke, but falls off a bit against longer range, smaller bosses
You should review the bees knees if you haven't yet, it's surprisingly good against wyverns and even the destroyer with that pink hard mode armour as a secondary damage source
Have you considered looking at the Paintball Gun? It's obtainable as soon as the Painter moves in when you get 8 other town NPCs (pets, travelling merchant, old man included) and is a respectable pre-boss obtainable ranged weapon that consumes no ammo. It's something I've made use of for up to Skeletron (bad Boomstick RNG lmao) before replacing it with the Handgun and thus the Phoenix Blaster.
I’ve been waiting on this weapon to be reviewed but I didn’t realize people were actually requesting it
The "of course am talking about" is so iconic anyone can recognize him with that line alone
Quality vid man!
I love the Laser Machine gun so much for how it sounds. Definitely a top 3 for best sounding weapons in the whole game.
The laser machine gun I need to get around to trying this 😂
I just have not got the chance to mess around with it
The only time I actually used this weapon was for a goofy kill on duke. (for the worthy/master mode post golem no-hit) and it was like the fastest time to kill i've had on him pre-ML at not even a minute and a half with all that HP. it was super funny
bro how do you edit so well?!?! ur videos look and a e great !!! tell us your secrets man?!
Laser machine gun was good with the healing specter armor. I had a lot of fun with that build.
The laser machine gun, for me, isn't a weapon that I'd go out of my way for in a mage playthrough, but if I get one I'll generally use it.
Post golem weapons are so often overshadowed considering you can almost effortlessly kill cutlist and get the superior pillar weapons, makes me wish cultist was harder or there was another boss inbetween to make going for these strong weapons more worth it.
This is ranged weapon strategy with shimmer i want you to showcase if u use bubbles to make box that can hold shimmer like an empty bix(imagine ur arena out layers is shimmer) then using something like super star cannon can be massively op cuz they bounce off the shimmer walls this do able per moon lord if the pomp stuff still works
"uh yeah. it exists. when you click, it shoots. And if you keep shooting, things die."
You should do a review of the Magic Dagger. It's nothing special, but pretty good in a lot of situations, and the low mana consumption plus fast fire rate is a good combination.
Imo there needs to be 1boss between plantera and golem that’s mandatory and then another mandatory boss between golem and lunatic cultist that way there’s actually a use for some of the coolest weapons in the game
I’m pretty sure you can hold another water candle in your hands, and it will stack the buff for enemy spawn rate
I'm pretty sure when Red says he will look into whether a weapon needs a buff, he just means he'll come over to this channel and see what you say
I do like the Laser Machinegun. It's pretty cool.
The "tiny buff" should be making the Martian madness event happen sooner
I find it to be a very _solid_ weapon through and through. It’s my weapon of choice against the Empress of Light, or for killing the Pillar itself from a distance. Their hitboxes are so big that I can shred them from a biome away if I know where they are.
I used the Laser machinegun for Duke Fishron and it was pretty good, it was consistent with the dps and would pop some of the bubbles he made, not really useful beyond that.
LMG is my favourite weapon to kill the pillars themselves with.
I use other weapons to kill the enemies, but for the actual pillars in particular, its great because the bullet spread doesnt matter at all.
“Good for fishron” huh? But you used a Razorblade typhoon to get the laser machine gun!
The laser mg is a pretty cool gun I love that pew pew sound it makes. Sucks it has to use mana and nothing like energy cells
Make a Video about Betsy's Wrath, By Far my Most Favourite Betsy Drop, Just the Lovely Debuff it can do is Wonderful
I think just in general more people do martian madness over frost moon because of the zenith, probably why the LMG is so popular
I think there needs to be more to do between golem and the celestial stuff, this wohld give post golem drops a lot more reason to exist
i love this thing i tried it and it shredded fishron
Please review Phaseblades and Phasesabers!!
So, when considering a weapon and its advantages, you have to look at the whole picture. When I look at the LMG (laser machine gun) I see a weapon that has comparable DPS to the razorpine and worse but similar DPS to the bubble gun, while also having long-range and fairly accurate projectiles.
So, if we compare the range of the two weapons mentioned above to the LMG, the LMG clearly has an advantage. The razorpine's pine needles fall out of the air after a short amount of time, and the bubble gun's bubbles don't reach that far. But the LMG's lasers go far.
Along with that, the lasers are fairly focused, compared to the bubble gun's bubbles which spread out if you aren't at close range, and the razorpine's pine needles, which also spread out (but not as much as the bubble gun's bubbles).
The LMG's lasers are not only long-range, accurate, and have fairly high DPS, but they can also be fired continuously*. So, compared to a weapon like the charged blaster cannon, the LMG is incredible against a single target, because again, it can be fired continuously*. And I know that the charged blaster cannon isn't meant for single target usage, but still, the fact that it will stop after a certain amount of time whether or not you run out of mana remains if you use it against a single target or a crowd of enemies.
*I will say that the caveat to the LMG's "unlimited" use time is that you need lots of mana potions. But, you won't get stacking mana sickness if you use higher level mana potions because the mana sickness will wear off before you run out of mana again.
I make the point of the LMG's "infinite" use time because, in my mind, I constantly compare the LMG to most ranger weapons. After all, both have really good range and long use times.
The LMG is incredible for focusing on a target that has fast, erratic movements and that is also far away. For example, Betsy. I used the LMG for Betsy, and let me say, it is incredible. It takes a while, and you have to use mana potions, but if you are playing on a console version (which I do, I play on Switch), you can just lock on target and you don't even have to think.
So, my conclusion is that when you look at a weapon, just remember that there are so many things to take into consideration. Weapons in Terraria can be used in so many different situations, and there are so many different ways to play Terraria with its weapons. Also, Betsy's sword weapon should be used in crafting the zenith.
This weapon help me beat my very first eotl fight! Good old days!
You should review the zenith next, because personally I think it’s pretty underrated.
I agree on the needed buff, but I still massively prefer the Lazer yo the Razorpine cause I hate that projectile drop. I used it to kill Duke and considered it during Moon Lord on my first playthough, and by the time I found the razorpine I just dumped it in my magic weapon chest with like 80 other items.
It's funny how he said not to kill it on impulse, because I accidentally triggered a Martian Madness one time because my impulse was to let the probe live
Can u make a video on the forbbiden armor? I think it's pretty underrated
Look ma', I'm in the video! Thanks sockrteez!
You should review the optic staff
Honestly it could use a damage boost considering it doesn't even pierce.
3:48 THATS what the rainbow's full texture looks like??
Laser machine gun is super underrated due to the progression point its located.
Honestly if it was moved to somewhere like post plantera it would have SO MUCH more potential
Same can be said for most martian weapons tbf ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Should just make martian madness pre-golem, then again that's about all golem unlocks
Tbh I don't even consider golem that major a point in progression
@@allinairhanson6886 Honestly, the point at which you fight golem is a bit silly anyways, given its difficulty level...is there even a lore reason as to why you need to beat the thing for the cultists to show up?
Unless it was patched, you can still find Martian Probes in the dungeon if it's dark enough (I haven't played in awhile)
Hoping to see the Beam Sword eventually. When I was new to the game and got it early on in hardmode i thought it was the coolest thing... Only to discover how shit it is compared to everything else despite it's rarity.
This weapon is perfect! Is not the highest dps, the most accurate, faster but HOLY PROTECTION FUCK IS JUST TOO FUN TO USE! The synergy with Spectre and nebula armor too BOI
They should rename It to laser machineFUN
I mean to be fair, it is kinda iconic
Can you talk about the chainsaw that drops from the pig butcher?
If anything it needs a slight accuracy and velocity buff.
I still really wanna know, what you think of the magic dagger, cause no one talks about it.
This is my mage weapon of choice for empresses. It’s fast projectile speed and no gravity makes quick work of the boss.
They should buff it so that it when it shoots its just one big projectile and when it lands it just deletes the game off your steam and gives you a game ban
Petition to get sock to review the influx waever
Do one about the blowpipe please
I'm in agreement that it could do with a slight buff. I find it to be a great choice against the Empress of Light but only because that's the one fight where its superior range matters. Razorpine is extremely effective against Duke Fishron as his charging the player more or less negates its short range and I find Duke's magic drops to be superior to Empress' anyway. I only go after her for the insignia. Generally speaking though the Laser Machine Gun suffers from a high mana cost, being somewhat annoying to get and being outclassed in its progression tier.
Ah I may finally rest in peace..... Sooo can we do the Shadowflame Bow next?
when i was farming for the laser machine gun i got like 15 xenopoppers in a row...
i dont need that many
I’ve always liked this weapon but never used it in a proper playthrough.
It either didn’t drop or I had a better weapon.
The problem is its ramping fire-rate. For smaller monsters I prefer a weapon that can deal its damage instantly as i’ll be switching targets a lot. It also lacks pierce/AOE for large groups of enemies and is fairly mana-hungry.
All of the best mage-weapons are either super flexible or fullfill a specific nishe.
The laser machinegun does neither very well, and is thus rarely used.
Thats my perspective anyway
It is a great item if you can win the end game battles (cultist to moon lord) with it... Especially on master mode and get fixed boi...
If I actually did play mage class, I’d probably want to use this gun
do deadly sphere next
Yes
I think it's a fine weapon for Moon Lord if you're comfortable getting up close to the boss, but there are just better weapons that deal more consistent DPS and are safer. Not a bad pick if you don't want to go out of your way for another weapon, though.
Make a review on the copper shortsword or I will have to use violence.
You can find a probe better if its a Lihzarhd temple "biome"
I thought the title said "My mom requested this terraria weapon..."
3:22 no? post plantera and post golem might aswell be the same exact thing, cause if you can beat plantera you can definitely beat golem
unless you just actively choose not to progress i guess
there is a pretty good gap between them with stuff like the empress, post plantera dungeon, both moon events and fishron
@@PavePlayz yeah but like..that's only if you actively choose not to go kick golem's ass right away
god why did relogic put the coolest weapons all after golem
So its like the razorpine but it consumes all the mana in the universe per shot.
The laser machinegun is a valid school of magic, and don’t let anyone tell you otherwise!
Laser Machine Gun
do the explosive jack o lantern canon
Dude you didn't even mention that the laser machinegun needs a lot of mana potions to use effectively
As a certified dakka enjoyer, i approve of this weapon
While it's far from the best weapon in vanilla, it does have 1 advantage over the razorpine and the razorblade. Its literal range. Damage falloff due to missed shots aside, the laser machine gun has stupidly long range, and so long as you vaguely point it at moonlord, you pretty much will hit him. This lets you have a very safe and reliable, if slow, moonlord fight, as you can just outrun him forever.
copper shortsword review when?
