Bestiary entry

"Agile soldiers of an ancient civilization, they continue to fight in the hopes their champion will return."

The Ancient Charger is an enemy found in Marble Caves, along with Ancient Archers and Ancient Phalanxes, after Skeletron has been defeated. It will charge at the player, at accelerating speeds, to deal contact damage. In Expert Mode, it has a 50% chance to apply the Broken Armor debuff for 20 seconds.

Notes

• While charging, any weapon with an average knockback will halt its charge significantly.

Trivia

• Like the other Marble Cave enemies, the Ancient Charger wears similar bronze armor.
