Using one of the Tavernkeep's Sentries is also highly recommended, as they will greatly help when dealing with the many enemies the player will encounter. It may also be a good idea to build houses for competent combat NPCs like the Princess or Pirate behind the portals, so they can help kill enemies without any danger to themselves. Placing a vertical wall behind the spawning points of the portals will allow you to effectively cover both sides of the arena with bouncing projectile weapons like the Water Bolt and Pulse Bow. Placing Flameburst Towers on these platforms will allow them to target flying enemies more easily, which can reduce swarming of the Crystal in later waves. When fighting Tier 2 and 3, building a ceiling above the Eternia Crystal will protect it from Kobold Gliders, since they explode on contact with blocks.īuild a raised platform 20 blocks off the ground, halfway between the Eternia Crystal and the expected portal location. Using Potions is always a good idea, while it is also good to place Campfires, Heart Lanterns, Honey and Heart Statues to survive for longer. Building the floor with Asphalt Blocks will greatly increase movement speed. If an enemy's path to the Eternia Crystal is blocked, it will phase through obstacles, so trying to stop their progress with blocks won't be very effective.

The area also needs 10 tiles of clear vertical space.īefore facing the event, making a completely flat arena works very well. The enemy portals will spawn further away if given the space however, up to 120 tiles away from the center of the Stand on each side. The arena needs to be at least 61 tiles long on each side of the Eternia Crystal Stand, measured from the center of the Stand (a 123-tile clearing in total, with the Stand at the center tile). In order to summon the event, the Player must place the Eternia Crystal Stand in a roughly flat terrain: a maximum of three tiles of vertical deviation is allowed, any more and the Stand will not accept the Eternia Crystal.
