How do I get the Summoner Emblem in Terraria?

To obtain the Summoner Emblem in Terraria, you need to defeat the Wall of Flesh, a boss found in the Underworld. The Summoner Emblem is a powerful accessory that increases summon damage by 15%, making it a key item for players specializing in the summoner class. HereÔÇÖs a detailed guide on how to achieve this, covering mechanics, strategies, and tips.

First, you need to prepare for the Wall of Flesh fight. This boss is summoned by throwing a Guide Voodoo Doll into lava in the Underworld. The Guide Voodoo Doll is dropped by Voodoo Demons, which are flying enemies found in the Underworld. To ensure you can summon the Wall of Flesh, you must have a Guide NPC alive in your world. If the Guide dies, you cannot summon the boss until another Guide moves in.

Before attempting the fight, gather the necessary resources and equipment. For summoners, the best pre-Wall of Flesh armor is the Bee Armor, which increases minion capacity and summon damage. You can craft it using Bee Wax dropped by the Queen Bee. For weapons, the Hornet Staff or Imp Staff are good choices, as they provide reliable minion damage. Additionally, equip accessories like the Obsidian Shield for knockback immunity, the Fledgling Wings for mobility, and the Shark Tooth Necklace for armor penetration.

To prepare for the fight, create a long platform in the Underworld. This platform should span a significant portion of the Underworld biome, as the Wall of Flesh moves horizontally and you need space to maneuver. Use blocks like Ash Blocks or any other material that is easy to place and remove. Ensure the platform is clear of obstacles and has enough space for you to run and dodge attacks.

During the fight, the Wall of Flesh will move steadily towards you, so you must keep moving in the opposite direction. The boss has two main parts: the eyes and the mouth. Focus your attacks on the eyes first, as they have less health and defeating them reduces the bossÔÇÖs overall damage output. Use your minions to attack the eyes while you focus on dodging the bossÔÇÖs attacks. The Wall of Flesh will spawn Hungry, small enemies that can block your attacks, so keep an eye out for them and deal with them quickly.

After defeating the Wall of Flesh, it will drop a Treasure Bag in Expert or Master Mode, or directly drop loot in Normal Mode. The Summoner Emblem is one of the possible drops, alongside other class-specific emblems like the Warrior Emblem, Ranger Emblem, and Sorcerer Emblem. If you donÔÇÖt get the Summoner Emblem on your first attempt, you can farm the Wall of Flesh by summoning it multiple times.

Common mistakes to avoid include not having a long enough platform, which can lead to being trapped and overwhelmed by the boss. Another mistake is not having enough mobility accessories, which can make it difficult to outrun the Wall of Flesh. Ensure you have adequate healing items like Greater Healing Potions and buffs like Ironskin, Regeneration, and Swiftness to increase your survivability.

Advanced techniques include using the Slime Mount to bounce over the Wall of FleshÔÇÖs attacks, providing additional mobility and avoiding damage. You can also use the Shield of Cthulhu for a dash ability, which helps in quickly repositioning during the fight. For summoners, maximizing minion damage is crucial, so consider using buffs like Summoning Potions and Bewitching Table to increase your minion count and damage output.

In summary, obtaining the Summoner Emblem requires defeating the Wall of Flesh, which involves careful preparation, strategic combat, and effective use of summoner-specific gear. By following these steps and avoiding common mistakes, you can successfully obtain the Summoner Emblem and enhance your summoner build for future challenges in Terraria.
