Boss prep checklist (fast wins)

  • 01. Pick a food goal: damage (boss/melee/ranged/magic) or survival (armor/dodge/regen).
  • 02. Cook from tier lists: start with Best Food Tier Lists and match your build.
  • 03. Automate ingredients: use the auto golden crop farm to remove the grind.
  • 04. Then read the boss page: mechanics → counters → recommended foods.
