Solar Eclipse

Event


Solar Eclipses only occur when in Hardmode and are announced at the beginning of a day, lasting from sunrise to sunset. During the Solar Eclipse the light will be only slightly brighter than at night and you can see the moon in front of the sun

Unique Enemies
All of these have great HP and Hit damage, and some of them special features that make fighting them extremely hard. It is recommended to treat this event as a Boss fight mixed with Invasion, since there will be large amounts of very tough and unusually agile enemies, most of which are resistant to knockback.
 * Reaper
 * The Swamp Thing
 * Vampire
 * Eyezor
 * Frankenstein

Players wishing to avoid the creatures spawned by this event can easily do so by burrowing underground, which prevents Eclipse enemies from spawning altogether, or by staying inside a floating house, since only the Reapers can pass through walls and they have the same shortcomings as Wraiths, namely, they can only "fly" when inside a wall.

This event seems to have a "Horror Movie" atmosphere to it, as Frankenstein-type monsters and vampires are usually linked to horror movies.
