* ''Solar Flare Armor'' has the potential to make a melee player nearly invulnerable to everything the game has to offer the moment they craft it. On top of having the highest defense of any armor in the game along with substantial melee buffs, wearing the full set activates its Solar Blaze effect, which grants up to 3 layers of a shield which majorly reduces damage taken and grants an explosive DashAttack without the need to equip another accessory. Taking hits or landing shield bashes will consume shield charges, but not only does each one only need 3 seconds without taking damage to regenerate, the shield provides 20% damage reduction when charged, which stacks with the set bonus' passive 12% DR and translates to the player almost always taking 22.4% less damage ''on top of'' their boatload of defense and any other DR they may have stacked, allowing them to eat almost any attack with impunity while fighting back just as hard. If you have a GameMod that goes beyond the Moon Lord, the armor even tends to holds up for a good while due to just how much damage and survivability the armor brings, especially with the relative rarity of damage reduction in the vanilla game.
* ''Vortex Armor'' is just as powerful as the Vortex weapons. In addition to its hefty defense and ranged damage bonuses, its set bonus provides a stealth mode akin to Shroomite Armor, except activated on demand instead of forcing you to stay still. Said stealth mode reduces your movement speed by 33%, but gives a whopping '''+80% ranged damage''' and 20% ranged crit while also reducing your aggro, which is a larger offensive buff in a single ability than that provided by ''entire loadouts''. The buffs stack with the Vortex Armor's innate bonuses and all your other ones, so with some accessories and a strong weapon under your belt, you can eviscerate almost any enemy the second they appear on screen. On top of that, the lowered movement speed can easily be counteracted with other movement buffs, or just by erasing any target before they can reach you in the first place. If you have a GameMod that goes beyond the Moon Lord, the armor even tends to holds up for a while due to just how big of a damage buff stealth mode gives.
* ''Nebula Armor'', while not necessarily having the incredible bulk of Solar Flare nor the damage of Vortex, is also a massive power spike for mages for a slightly different reason. Its great buffs to magic usage are one thing, but the real prize is the set bonus, which has a 1/3 chance to spawn a random Nebula Booster whenever hitting an enemy, with a miniscule cooldown of half a second each. The Boosters can buff the user's damage, regen, or mana regen for 8 seconds each, and each additional booster stacks the effects up to 3 times and refreshes the cooldown. With endgame magic weapons tending to deliver a lot of hits in rapid succession, the player can easily spawn enough Boosters to permanently have every buff at max stacks, which will give them a hefty 45% more damage while regenerating 9 HP/s and 30 MP/s, turning them into a powerhouse that can spam nuclear spells with impunity, and rapidly heal off damage that they do take, mitigating mage's SquishyWizard tendencies. As a bonus, if you're in multiplayer, ''everyone'' can benefit from the buffs, which can make your entire team just as strong, even if they aren't using magic themselves. If you have a GameMod that goes beyond the Moon Lord, the armor even tends to holds up for a while due to just how much utility and power comes from permanently having all of these buffs active at once.

It has 68 armor (only 10 points less then Solar), a large amount of life regen to further increase survivability, and 60% increased minion damage (6% less then Stardust). It lets you summon 4 sentry pets with a focus on the Ballista summon. The strongest Ballista pet deals '''140''' damage before buffs making it the hardest hitting pet in the game.

By wiring them up to timers and spacing them apart, each one produces up to three of its respective drop, for a maximum of ten. That's free, infinite healing and mana which you can collect in a fraction of the time it takes to gulp down potions. Even the FinalBoss will have a hard time wearing an agile player down. If you don't have heart or star statues, you can substitute this with mob statue traps, which will quickly kill the trapped mobs and cause them to drop hearts/mana in the process.

* If you're fighting bosses or doing events, ''Heart and Star Statues'' completely break the game for anyone even moderately competent at dodging. By wiring them up to timers and spacing them apart, each one produces up to three of its respective drop, for a maximum of ten. That's free, infinite healing and mana which you can collect in a fraction of the time it takes to gulp down potions. Even the FinalBoss will have a hard time wearing an agile player down. If you don't have heart or star statues, you can substitute this with mob statue traps, which will quickly kill the trapped mobs and cause them to drop hearts/mana in the process. This all eventually got heavily {{nerf}}ed; Heart and Star statues now have strict limits on how many items they can create, while monsters spawned by statues don't drop anything (with the curious exception of the Slime Statue, seemingly specifically to allow ''some'' shenanigans).

mount. It's also smaller than the Cosmic Car Key, allowing you to use it indoors, thus rendering wing and boot accessories a moot point.

* The ''Cobalt Shield'' is a simple but nonetheless very effective accessory. It makes you immune to knockback, making many previously troublesome enemies almost trivial by taking away the [[LedgeBats one way]] for them to threaten you. It can also be combined with an Obsidian Skull to form the Obsidian Shield, granting you immunity to burning blocks (Hellstone and Meteorite) and making it much easier to take on Hell and the Wall of Flesh. On Hardmode, it can be combined with the Ankh Charm to create the Ankh Shield, granting immunity to most debuffs on top of being protected from burning blocks's damage.
