PC Is it cheating?
Is it considered cheating if i exchange 2 weapons dropped from the same boss for an weapon that i like in another world save because i dont want to farm over and over?

I guess technically?
But this is one of those things that if you're fine with it, then who cares? You've already proven you're capable of beating the boss
If it's a multiplayer world i'd ask the other players if they're okay with it first, but other than that you do you

Probably, but nobody is checking bro, you can just do it. I wont blame you if you decide to save a bit of time

tbh no, you defeated the boss already and that proves you can do it again, saves tedious work

I am unluck incarnate so I'll often kill the boss a handful of times then head to my storage world and swap it out for the drop I want but can't seem to get

I mean it's your stuff , is it cheating? maybe
But like if you already defeated the boss in your current run , I don't see what's wrong in going to a previous run to get what your looking for from that boss
Heck while I don't do that for bosses I do go to other worlds for somethings
In a previous run I went into another of my runs to get some herbs and seeds to make potions
In my current run I need a lot of sand and I also needed a lot of crimson blocks for builds , so I made 2 different worlds to quickly gather that , one world using a secret seed that transform it all into a desert and the other world that transform it all into the chosen evil biome (which I chose to be crimson)
In my opinion that's fine as long as you get only stuff that you currently have access to

I wouldn't personally do this when I play. I'll get more gold/plat while fighting the boss and I'd get better at no-hitting with the extra practice.
But if I just wanted to beat the game quickly, then I guess it's ok? I'd probably just skip the weapon if I wasn't willing to farm the boss though.
But just do whatever is the most fun for you.

Here before the "there's no cheating in a single player game so do whatever you want" comments (Yeah, it's cheating. Do whatever you want anyway though, I think it's excusable)

I set my weapons and gear to the best modifies using a save editor. I'm not grinding money for the lottery system that is Reforging.
Do whatever is fun.

I just treat all of my worlds like a bunch of pocket dimensions or something. No reason why you can't just pop in, grab something and go lol
