Is It Easy to Kill All 3 Mechanical Bosses

The term "mechanical bosses" refers to three Hardmode bosses; The Destroyer, The Twins, and Skeletron Prime, which are grouped together under this generic term due to sharing certain characteristics: They can be summoned by "mechanical" items, and are themselves metallic and robotic in appearance, resembling mechanical versions of the pre-Hardmode bosses Eater of Worlds, Eye of Cthulhu, and Skeletron, respectively. In addition, there is a 10*1/10 (10%) chance that one will randomly spawn each dusk after the first Demon/Crimson Altar is destroyed in a world, and each will continue to spawn randomly until it is defeated at least once. (i.e. 3.33*1/30 (3.33%) chance for one specific boss to spawn when none is defeated, then 5*1/20 (5%) chance after defeating one of them, finally 10*1/10 (10%) chance after defeating two)

The mechanical bosses' summoning items can be crafted at a Mythril or Orichalcum Anvil. They also drop from all Hardmode enemies (except statue-spawned enemies, Meteor Heads, and Old One's Army enemies) with a 0.04*1/2500 (0.04%) chance until their respective boss is defeated.

Defeating any single mechanical boss for the first time will cause the following to happen:

Defeating all three mechanical bosses causes the following to happen:

• The status message "The jungle grows restless..." appears.
• Plantera's Bulbs begin spawning in the Underground Jungle.
• Reapers and Mothrons now spawn during Solar Eclipses.

Notes [ ]

• When spawning naturally, a mechanical boss spawns exactly 81 seconds after the status message has appeared. Being in a layer lower than the Surface at that moment, or, in singleplayer, exiting the world during that timespan, will prevent the boss from spawning naturally.
• With the 10*1/10 (10%) chance of spawning naturally at dusk, the resulting chance for each mechanical boss is initially 3.33*1/30 (3.33%). Once one of them has been defeated, the remaining two have a resulting 5*1/20 (5%) chance of spawning naturally, and after defeating the second one, the last one has the full chance of 10*1/10 (10%).
• It is possible to summon a mechanical boss pre-Hardmode if the summoning item is brought in from another world. However, if the Wall of Flesh has not been defeated, Plantera's Bulbs will not start spawning.

Tips [ ]

• In order to acquire the Hardmode ores, it is not required to destroy Altars and thus expose oneself to the risk of having a mechanical boss spawn unexpectedly. Instead, it is possible to open crates, which contain Hardmode ores and bars. As of 1.4 , crates acquired pre-Hardmode will not give Hardmode rewards.
• On the  Windows Phone version and Nintendo3DS  version, the player can find a Drax in an Underworld Shadow Chest, allowing the player to acquire Turtle armor before defeating any of the mechanical bosses, making it much easier to defeat them on the first try.
• On the  Old-gen console version,  Windows Phone version, and Nintendo3DS  version, it is possible to obtain a Terra Blade after defeating a single mechanical boss. Note that three Broken Hero Swords (As opposed to one) from a Solar Eclipse will be required, however.
• As long as the respective mechanical boss has not been defeated, its summoning item can be farmed in events with a high number of enemies, such as the Pirate Invasion or Goblin Army.

Trivia [ ]

• All of the mechanical bosses shoot a red Death Laser: the Destroyer's segments, Retinazer in its second phase, and the Prime Laser.
• They are the only bosses whose Expert -exclusive items are crafting materials.
•  – According to the official game lore, the mechanical bosses are likely the parts of Cthulhu which the Mechanic was forced to build. This explains the lack of a mechanical counterpart of the Brain of Cthulhu, as the mechanical Cthulhu lacks a brain and the Mechanic was never able to finish it.
