Are there any better sets than meteorite armor and space gun in pre-hardmode?
Honestly, its that fossil armor, molten, or jungle armor. Depends on what class you are. More on reddit.com

Fossil or crimson armor?
I’d say crimson armor. Crimson armor gives 16 Defense +6% damage and better life regeneration. Fossil armor gives 13 defense +5% range damage +8% range crit chance and a 20% chance not to consume ammo. Over all the extra defense and life regen is nice and still 6% extra damage makes crimson better choice for a general ranger build. If you are trying to go for pure damage then fossil armor. Once you get to the dungeon though necro armor is the better choice. More on reddit.com

PSA for people who picked the necro relic: You don't need to make necro armor
As a returner who hasn't played since just before Archeology released - does this have no drawbacks at all to necro? Is this a viable thing for other combat styles? Forgive my ignorance, I'm still struggling to get up to speed with everything I've missed! Still getting my head around archeology 😅 More on reddit.com

Which armour? :: Terraria General Discussions
October 26, 2017 - Originally posted by XirP🎃Lioxin The Friendly🎃:Meteor or Jungle for Mage. Necro for Ranger Desert fossil (Dunno why you'd want to...) For Throwing. Or Shadowscale/Crimson armour for Melee -- Avoid Hellstone armour, it's just raw defense, and that's far from useful (compared to HP regen, or some boons) Also avoid it (completely) if on Expert.

Is Fossil armor worth it?
Takedown request View complete ... using a sword instead, take Crimson. Depends on how good you are at survival in general. If you're able to dodge and stay alive well go with Necro....

Fossil armor: Most Overpowered prehardmode armor :: Terraria General Discussions
August 9, 2015 - After I raided a dungeon 1 ancient iron helmet 1 bone wand 1 ancient necro helmet 235+ bones several golden chest loot You can pretty much dominate goblin armies with this. Last edited by Funny Rat Mod; Aug 9, 2015 @ 5:04am ... Well, I wouldn't say that a goblin army is ever a problem. Problem with fossil armor is that you can only get it after worm/brain.

Necro Armor: The Best Pre-Hardmode Range Armor - AVIDGAMER.GG
April 18, 2023 - You can drop the Ancient Necro Helmet from Angry Bones and Dark Casters in the Dungeon. The drop rate is rather rare as you have a 1/450 (0.22%) chance of dropping it. When you wear the full set, there is a cool afterimage effect appearing when you run, similar to the one of the Shadow Armor. It also replaces the sound you make when you take damage with the one of a Skeleton. This armor is one of the two ranged armor you can get pre-hardmode. The other one is the Fossil Armor.
