I've been having trouble defeating this monster. Even with lots of buff potions, health potions, high tier armor (Molten), and ranged weapons with plenty of ammo (Minishark), I can't seem to kill this boss.

Worse, when I get it down to about 2000 hp, even if I'm fairly far away, it'll suck me in and continually rise towards the skybox, which doesn't allow me to do anything for some reason.

How do I defeat the Wall of Flesh? What gear should I be using and what kind of potions do I need?
