Guide:Class setups

The Thorium Mod heavily expands on the number of options available for the four vanilla classes – Melee, Ranged, Magic, and Summon. In addition to this, the mod adds a completely revamped Thrower class with mechanics unique to the Thorium Mod, as well as two completely new classes for the player to play as: Healer and Bard. As with vanilla, each class's versatility, capabilities, and power increase as you progress through the game. This, plus the existing choices from vanilla, means it may be overwhelming for a first-time player to decide what to use. This guide will provide potential weapons, armor, accessories, and other options for each class at multiple points of the game.

Note that this guide will pertain only to Thorium equipment. For a list of equipment from vanilla Terraria, please refer to this guide. For a more detailed guide for the Healer class, please refer to this guide.
