Walkthrough

1
Acquire the best gear available. For Ranged, prioritize the Tsunami Bow from the Duke Fishron fight for extreme DPS. Stock a lot of Chlorophyte Bullets for use with a gun crafted after beating the Ranged pillar.
2
For Ranged armor, use Shroomite Armor, crafted from the Autohammer using Chlorophyte Bars and Glowing Mushrooms. Consider swapping Ancient Boots into the leg slot for bonus minion damage if using a summoning staff, as the Shroomite set bonus cannot be used.
3
Gather materials to make small houses in four spots of the world. You will need wood, walls, workbenches, tables, torches, and beds.
4
Acquire four extra buff tables: Sharpening Station, Ammo Box, Crystal Ball, and Bewitching Table. Place one of each at the small houses you create.
5
Stock up on potions. Aim for 10+ of each potion you plan to use, as you will likely die several times.
6
Ensure you have enough ammo for upcoming bosses. For guns, have a full stack of Chlorophyte Bullets for the final boss. Use the strongest available arrows.
7
Be aware that the Pylon Network (a fast travel system) is disabled during the gauntlet section because it counts as an event.
8
Prepare for increased mobility. A fast mount like the Cosmic Car Keys (summoning the Spaceship, acquired from the Martian Madness event) is highly recommended. Alternatively, acquire the best wings available and potentially an item from the Empress of Light (EoL item) that allows for infinite flight time.
9
Craft the best potions available and acquire the best damage accessories possible to maximize your effectiveness against enemies with high health.

Tips

The Tsunami Bow offers extreme DPS, which is crucial for the upcoming challenges in Terraria.

Having 10+ of each potion is a good safety net for the difficult final stretch.
The Cosmic Car Keys are a highly recommended mobility option, but not strictly necessary.
