Corruptor

The Corruptor is a Hardmode enemy that spawns within The Corruption. It is a larger version of the Eater of Souls, with an added projectile attack (Vile Spit) that inflicts the Weak debuff on players.

Tips

 * Corruptors can be fairly powerful when just starting Hardmode, so they should not be underestimated.

Trivia

 * It leaves behind an afterimage as it moves, much like a set of Necro armor or The Twins boss.
 * The Vile Spit projectile was once able to spread Corruption, giving the Corruptor its name. However, this feature was removed in the 1.2 update for desktop.
 * Despite its name, the melee weapon Scourge of the Corruptor is not dropped by the Corruptor.
