Terraria – How hard is Ocram compared to other bosses I know

terraria-console

I'm getting ready to fight Ocram on the console version of Terraria. I've played on PC and mobile before, so I'm familiar with the bosses in the other versions. How does Ocram compare? I want to know so that I can be properly prepared.

Disclaimer I have not played Terraria on the PS3, so this answer is not first hand.

If you can beat the Twins and Skeletron Prime you should not have much of a problem with Ocram, assuming you put some time into crafting weapons/armor from the best available tier.

LevelSave - The Toughest Bosses In Terraria claims that he is actually easier than both The Twins and Skeletron prime when you its possible to fight him. Ocram is #4 on his list. The Twins and Skeletron prime are #3 and #1 respectively.

While compiling my list there were many factors that came into consideration. Should all the bosses be considered on the same scale? Should they be considered equal on all fronts? In my mind that isn’t a fair way to rank them, while one is playing in normal mode the gear and weapons are clearly inferior to those available in hard mode. That being said I decided to consider the bosses in the time that a player would first face them.

I can defeat him by standing in one place holding R1 and aiming up with a harp in full hallowed armor, with heart statues but without using meteorite/hellstone. Usually no potions either, sometimes one greater health potion if the servants don't feel like dropping hearts. So basically he can be defeated afk (or afc in this case :p).
