Dark Caster

The Dark Caster is one of the many skeleton based enemies that can be found in the game Terraria. It can be encountered in the Dungeon.

Appearence[]

The appearence of the Dark Caster is the same as most of the other skaletons in the game. However, it wears a Robe, a vanity item that can be used to create Gem Robes which are armor pieces that boost the wearers magic abilities.

Abilities[]

  • Water Spheres - The Caster is able to summon three Water Spheres towards the player. These are projectiles can pass through walls, however they can be destroyed by a single hit from any weapon.
  • Teleportation - Dark Casters are able to teleport anywhere they want. This is their only form of movement.

Behaviour[]

The Dark Casters follow Caster AI meaning that they will do the following repeatedly until they die or despawn:

  • They will teleport to a free location that is within 20 tiles from the player and 4 tiles away from them.
  • They will fire three projectiles, in the case of the Dark Caster, water spheres.
  • After that they will pause for about three seconds, before teleporting again.

Loot[]

When killed, a Dark Caster will have a 98.07% chance to drop 1-3 Bones, an 1.53% chance of dropping a Golden Key, a 0.4% chance to drop a Bone Wand, a 0,33% chance to drop a Clothier Voodoo Doll, a 0.22% chance to drop an Ancient Necro Helmet and a 1% chance to drop a Tally Counter.

Bestiary[]

The bestiary entry for the Dark Caster says: "Doomed to watch over the Dungeon, these mages teleport to confuse their prey, before striking them down with a blast of water."
