Is it okay if I use this for a backround of a cover title? A couple thousand will see it

As long as you credit me, then I'm fine with it. (Things like "Cover art is made by ppowersteef)
It's been done before, and I really appreciate it.

Vortex is the only pillar without ground penetrating attacks;
Stardust has one--the Milkyway Weaver;
Nebula has two--Nebula Floater and Evolution Beast;
Solar pillar has the most ground penetrating attacks--Corite, Crawltipede and sometimes Sroller.
Even then Stardust is still the most difficult.

Solar is complete hell for me. Constantly dodging fireballs and having to take down the Selenians and other charging enemies, not even able to fly without invoking a Crawlitipede's wrath. It's worse when you're a ranged character because you wind up accidentally killing YOURSELF when the Selenians reflect your bullets.

I find Solar the most difficult.

It's hard to farm, but once you've got a corite banner and a platform set up slightly above the ground, it's a joke to fight with spectre armor (nebula better).

You need better aerial movement. I would suggest a bundle of balloons, the best wings available to you, lightning boots, and master ninja gear. You need as much mobility in the air as possible for the Nebula tower.

And the floaters?
What do i need to do against those teleport spamming floaters?!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I would recommend a vortex beater and either the endless musket pouch (remember, the beater has homing grenades) or chlorophyte bullets. That's probably the easiest way to deal with them unless there's a better way to spam homing attacks that are fast enough to hit before the floaters teleport.

Build a tiny box in the sky, and try to call it difficult again.

Then jump up and down like crazy, and hope those floaters don't come below or above you.

Stardust is the easiest pillar. Just lure a single stardust cell away from the spawn radius and farm off that 'till the shield goes down.

I absoloutly agree! exactly the same...when you have a good piercing weapon you can absoloutly OWN the Vortex Pillar, I did a Speed-Kill with that: 00:56 Minutes...sadly I don't have a proof...but every enemy was on one big pile, I shot the down with the Solar Erruption...all dead, the Pillar in 56 seconds:dead...
also the Stardust Pillar is really easy...but as you said, Nebula and Solar...meh... those are insane, bruh...

To be honest...I hate the Solar Pillar the monst ... one word to that: CRAWLTIPEDES!!!!

If you're a summoner (real, full setup summoner) you can afk 3 of pillars. Like me.

I dont really know the new real summoner setup since it changed

Stardust Armor give you a Golem buff. Stardust Golem acts as a summon, if you double tap S (down) it will go to cursor position and lure mobs. If you mix this with a Psycho Knife from Solar Invasion you're theoritically safe, however though the Stardust Golem doesn't have a high DPS, it's just luring mobs. Recommended Summoner setup is 2x Xenostaff (Martian Invasion drop) that creates UFOs quickly teleporting and shooting from distance, 2x Stardust Orbs that stick and leech life out of enemy or shoot from distance and everything left from summon slots to Stardust Dragon (it's DPS is some kind of a joke! That thing EATS Metal Bosses within SECONDS!) and aside of Summon Point - driven summons, there is still Staff of Frost Hydra ; Rainbow Crystal Staff ; Lunar Portal Staff ... If you wear summoning accesories and use summon buffs to increase your summon points and damage (Each additional Dragon summon doubles it's potential damage) you can safely AFK most of stuff in the game without being worried about getting hit!
