Guide:Class setups

Shadows of Abbadon adds a wide variety of new weapons, armor, and accessories for the player to use against the many new bosses and other enemies, including a significant amount of additional content after the Moon Lord. As such, this guide provides a general outline of various equipment that are fairly effective for each of the available classes (including Thrower), at various stages of the game's progression.

Pre-Bosses
Start your world as you normally would; gather materials, build a couple of houses and venture underground to increase your maximum health. Gather ores to craft better gear, and go to the desert to collect Tumblesticks for your first thrower armor.

Pre-Skeletron
At this point you should have plenty of Demonite or Crimtane Bars, and should have defeated The Decree, Queen Bee, and Ralnek prior to the Skeletron fight.

Pre-Wall of Flesh
To prepare for the Wall of Flesh, you should get all the loot from the dungeon with golden keys, then with a shadow key get loot from the shadow chests in hell and defeat Jensen, the Grand Harpy.

Pre-Mechanical Bosses
This section assumes the player has visited all appropriate biomes, has defeated Araneas and has made equipment out of Venomite or Hardmode ores before fighting The Twins, The Destroyer, and Skeletron Prime.

Pre-Plantera
At this point you should have plenty of Hallowed Bars and mech boss souls and should also have defeated Raynare prior to your fight with Plantera.

Pre-Golem
Before you engage Golem you can make and use equipment from drops in the updated dungeon, along with many other other materials that are upgrades to chlorophyte.

Pre-Lunar Events
This section assumes the player has defeated Duke Fishron, Primordia and the Martian Madness event to prepare for the Lunatic Cultist and the Celestial Pillars.

Pre-Moon Lord
Moon Lord should be fought with gear made from fragments dropped by the Celestial Pillars.

Pre-Abaddon
You now have access to weapons for every class dropped by new enemies that spawn at night, and access to luminite for armor and moonlord drops for weapons to fight Abaddon, the Source of the Affliction with.

Pre-Araghur
This section assumes the player has visited all appropriate biomes, and has defeated all previous bosses and invasions before Araghur, the Flare Serpent.

Pre-Lost Siblings
This section assumes the player has visited all appropriate biomes, and has defeated all previous bosses and invasions before The Lost Siblings.

Pre-Erazor
This section assumes the player has visited all appropriate biomes, and has defeated all previous bosses and invasions before Erazor.

Pre-Nihilus
This section assumes the player has visited all appropriate biomes, and has defeated all previous bosses and invasions before Nihilus.

Endgame
The mod is not complete and will have more content in the future.
