What class, accessories and arena are you running?

Uh, I pretty much use water bolt, bee gun, and the mini shark. I'm using the Hellstone armor set and I don't know what acc I have.They all have good modifiers but not all defense modifiers.

Yeah, a big part of fighting in Terraria is prepping the area youre fighting in.

So make a few platforms you can easily go up and down, get some campfires and heart lamps, and go nuts on buff potions.

Yeah, I did all that.

I think the arena for skeletron needs to be long and with just one level of platforms. I was using a big box with two levels of platforms but I think it'd be better just making it longer to have a "runway" of sorts. In fact, I think that's what I did when I killed him before.

I have two campfires, I think two heart lanterns, pools of honey, stars in bottles, and my buffs are, iron skin, swiftness, regen, thorns, mana power, and mana regen.

A problem I have is I'm not consistent with my grapples to get out of the stun lock right away. He usually gets in 2-3 hits before I can escape.

Geez, and I thought you were a vet.

You're mixing a mage with ranger weapons (nothing wrong with a secondary) but a warrior armour set (I'm guessing for the defense)

Yes, runway is the way to go for bosses that generally keep a relative position to you. Get any running shoes for mobility. With more mobility you can have less defence so swap out for the meteor armour for increased magic damage.

The water bolt is a good pick, if you make best use of it. Build a ceiling as well, equal distance along the runway and above skeles head, the water bolts bounce so aim pretty much straight up while running away and watch him run into a constant wall of pain.

The headline buzz words will be "we have more flops than the other guys".
