Boss

You have to damage its Prime head to complete the battle. But before that, you also need to damage its limbs and arms. Prime Cannon, its primary limbs can unleash bombs and deal a huge amount of damage. Its Prime Laser limbs can release red death lasers and reduce your health. Use your guns and demolish these.  Prime Vice, its arm will lunge forward and unleash a powerful strike. Prime Saw, its primary arm can deal colossal damage and you have to use frost effects to stun the boss for a while. Keep using your magics and effects with high buffs and stats.

Finally, the Prime Head will release glowing spikes that will also move forward and attack. You also need to dodge its attacks and projectiles. Keep attacking its head and focus on reducing its health to move to the final phase.

Phase 2

You can dodge its projectiles and attacks from limbs. Use your guns and target its arms first. Destroy its arms and move on to demolish its limbs. The boss will become fragile after losing its other parts. Also make sure to stand within its reach. If you stand way behind and the tiles distance is more, Skeletron Prime will automatically despawn. This is its technique to stay intact during the battle. Skeleton Prime boss is brave and brilliant as well.

Stay within its reach and keep attacking from every end. Don’t allow the boss to gain the momentum in the final phase of the battle. Once all its primary body parts are destroyed, you can use more effects and potions. This will make the boss weaker. Continue to deal more damage and destroy its head. Kill its prime head and then you can win the challenge. You will get some rewards as drops immediately after completing the challenge.
