    I didn't fought it yet, so do you guys have any tips from me besides getting the Scavenger armor (Copper armor + Iron + Pixels) and the most powerful weapons you can find?

    You really don't need to do much. Just have the iron bow and about 20 bandages and you should be groovy. If your good enough you don't need to use a single bandage - its more for a last resort kind of thing.
    Find a planet with a lot of surface caves and fire away from the cave unto the UFO. You can take it down pretty much without ever getting hurt.

    If you find some bombs, they do wonders if you can manage to get above it by climbing up a side of a mountain.

    I made sure I was prepared as possible but it was pretty easy.

    Well, I do have a gun. Would that give the same effect?

    Matters if it does more damage then a Super Charged iron bow. If it does Sure

    Also as a tip: Fight on low-gravity planets.

    It helps, a -lot-.

    I usually try to get the natural terrain of the planet to help me, and or if there is a village or complex (an apex village/large complex if I'm really lucky) then I use that and hope that the UFO slams into the side of a building and gets stuck there so that I can sit back and shoot at it with my pew pew bow.

    He is not the hardest now, if you want to solo him look for a flat ground with 1 or 2 higher places so oyu can jump attack it ( or build an arenalike this)

    Or you can go easy mode and look for a town or ship. The NPCs will fight it too.

    Make a flat path out of dirt so you don't have to worry about getting caught up on the terrain. making a dirt roof can help you avoid the blasts from the ship, but the blocks will break. Also the UFO can be set on fire if you have a sword with that ability.

    Also, full iron armor helps

    Tramonto Yeah, You!

    Summon him in a village or even better on an avian airship. The NPCs will destroy it in seconds!

    are throwing knives still obscenely overpowered? if so, just find some and faceroll him.
